Chapter 24 - Chapter 24: Peace Island Grows Up

It was late at night, and everyone was asleep. Although Peace Island was not big, it was eerily quiet for a place with only a few people living there.

In the spacious courtyard, Finn looked at Little Green, who had suddenly learned the skill of shrinking, and felt a little worried.

Little Green was like a statue, not daring to move at all as Finn observed him.

Because not far away, four big guys were watching the show.

If this performance is not good, Little Green has already imagined himself being made into food in more than ten chapters.

"Alas, this island is too small. If it were a little bigger, it could be used as a zoo." Finn sighed again.

This guy is really too big. Even if he becomes smaller, there is still not enough space for the entire Peace Island to move around.

After all, if I want to complete my idea of ​​a zoo, the space will be a problem if the animals on my Peace Island are too big.

Just as Finn was hesitating, Redfield proudly puffed out his chest, pulled one of Dragon's legs with his left hand, and walked over quickly.

"Boss, this guy tried to run away, but I caught him."

"Huh? What?"

Finn didn't react for a moment, but when he saw the figure of Dragon behind him, three thick black lines floated above his head.

"You knocked him out again?" Finn just finished speaking, and at the same time he muttered in his heart, "Hey, what did I say again?"

"Boss, why don't you keep him as a laborer?"

"Ah, I forgot to tell you yesterday, since this guy has a powerful father, we don't need him.

Even if he's grateful to us for saving him, who knows if his father is easy to get along with? Let's just send him away and consider it a good deed."

Good people and good deeds?

Redfield was stunned for a moment, but at this time he was already a die-hard fan of Finn and carried out Finn's orders without hesitation.

However, when Dragon left, several mysterious fruits of different colors appeared on the devil fruit tree in the mountains.

"…"

The next morning, when the sun just came out, Finn felt a warm feeling moving on his face.

"Ah, Kuro, you're being naughty again." Finn touched Kuro's head lovingly.

"Woof." Kuro called out flatteringly, and the well-behaved voice almost scared Little Green, who was squatting outside the door, half to death.

"Woof, woof, woof."

"Is there something?" Finn frowned slightly. Kuro is a very obedient puppy. He doesn't make any noise and can help manage the pets at home.

When I opened the door, Little Green was still standing there like the statue he was yesterday, without any movement.

"Why are you still here?"

"Boss, you didn't let me go, so I didn't dare to move." Little Green's trembling voice sounded in Finn's ears.

There are still many good people in this world. Even animals know how to be grateful. It seems that the scum like the Celestial Dragons who are struck by lightning are indeed a minority.

Crack, Mary Geoise and the Sabaody Archipelago were struck by lightning again: these days were also called the Dark Days by the Celestial Dragons, and from then on they dared not go out during these days every year.

With a helpless smile, Finn patted Little Green's body and said with a smile, "Let's go; take me to see what happened on the island."

"…"

Little Green carried Finn into the air. Although his body became smaller, he was still huge compared to Finn.

Looking down, there was no one on the island. Even Roger, who rarely went out, didn't know where he had gone.

Little Green continued to rise, and Finn rubbed his eyes in disbelief and continued to look at his Peace Island.

I opened my mouth wide, not knowing what to do for a moment.

It's so big! Peace Island has become bigger.

Not only did the original Peace Island become more than three times its original size, but connected islands even appeared at both ends of the Peace Island.

The size is almost the same as the former Peace Island.

The island on the left is covered with lush green and full of vitality.

The island on the right seemed to be covered by a black fog, and for a moment it was impossible to see its entire appearance.

"Little Green, go and take a look."

Little Green's figure shuttles through the island on the left. Here, there are birds singing and flowers blooming, and there are faint traces of biological activities, like a natural animal world.

Zoo, isn't this what Finn imagined the zoo to look like yesterday?

Finn was so happy that he didn't care at all why he came to this island.

In a different world, it's normal for some abnormal things to happen.

"Master, are we going to land?"

"No, let's go to another island."

As soon as he finished speaking, Little Green flapped its wings and took off, and Finn sat on it steadily without any discomfort.

In a blink of an eye, a dragon and a man appeared at the boundary between the Black Island and the Peace Island.

There was thick fog and gusts of cold wind ahead. If it weren't for the big guy Little Green, Finn would definitely not have taken the risk.

And for safety reasons, Finn asked Little Green to lead the way.

The excuse is: You are big, so you can block the wind.

Deep in the fog, the environment here forms a sharp contrast with the island on the left.

Scorched earth, dead trees, and even the water in the pool was filthy, with whooshing sounds ringing in the ears and an inexplicable stench emanating from all around.

Finn suppressed his fear and followed Little Green to investigate but found nothing.

Could this be a dead island?

What use would such a place be even if it were developed?

Finn turned around and left with Little Green in disappointment when suddenly a series of crackling sounds came from behind him.

Are there animals? Finn squinted his eyes and looked into the fog with difficulty.

Under his gaze, a swaying human figure gradually became clear.

The skin on his face was as black as scorched earth, his eyes were empty, his steps were unsteady, and his long purple hair and shriveled body made him look a little scary.

He kept muttering, "Lo, treasure, John, treasure, mine, mine..."

"Treasure?" Finn clearly heard the other party's whisper and instantly became interested.

Although he didn't know how this guy appeared here, it didn't affect Finn's interest in the treasure mentioned by the man in front of him.

Looking at his frail appearance, he seemed like a gust of wind could blow him away. He was not a dangerous person at all.

Stepping forward, Finn asked with concern, "Hello, I'm Finn, the owner of this island. Who are you?"

Before Finn could finish his words, the shriveled man suddenly raised his head, opened his big dry mouth, pulled out a rusty axe from behind, and chopped towards Finn without warning.

Finn subconsciously blocked it with his arm.

With a crack, the axe shattered into pieces and turned into ashes in an instant.

"Oh my god, that was close." This was the first time Finn was attacked by the enemy.

Turning around, Finn pointed at the enemy angrily and said, "Little Green, kill him."

Little Green was frightened when the enemy attacked Finn just now, although he knew that the enemy would definitely not be able to hurt a big shot like Finn.

But it was Little Green's own negligence that caused him to be attacked. Thinking of the big guys in Finn's palace, his heart trembled.

"Aoooooo~" Little Green bared his teeth and roared angrily, his sharp claws flashing with cold light as he grabbed the enemy's head.

"Damn it, you almost killed me. I'm going to crush you to death."

With a puff, a claw with black blood pierced through the enemy's abdomen. When he was about to crush the opponent's head, Finn behind him spoke in time to stop Little Green.

"Stop, don't kill him."

Finn was shocked when he saw Little Green's posture: If he kills her, where will I find my treasure?
