It was dark, deep, and gloomy. The rustling sound was like the sound of chewing meat and bones. "Hiss … Hiss …" Strange squirming sounds were mixed in. In the darkness, they were surrounded by malicious gazes from all directions.
Crack …
Franky's eyes shot out two beams of light that lit up the darkness. What everyone saw was a forked sand flow. Vaguely, they could see black roots meandering in the sand flow. Above their heads, there were some corpses that were tied up by the black roots. It looked like countless terrifying ghosts were wandering in the darkness.
The straw hats were fine. It wasn't their first time seeing such a scene. They just lowered their heads and walked quickly towards the desert maze. The rest of the people who were here for the first time were terrified.
They didn't speak a word along the way. The dark passage was deep and serene. Even with the light from the searchlight, everyone still felt fear from the bottom of their heart. It was as if they were being surrounded by darkness, swallowed, and drowned.
The sound of footsteps was strange. The sound of footsteps resonated in their ears like a heartbeat. The darkness above their heads was like the shadow of a devil. The horizon was blocked by a huge sand wall. They couldn't see the top of it. It was as if they had merged into the embrace of the devil.
"We are here. This is the sea of monsters!"
Luffy took off the straw hat from his head and tied it to his back. He looked back at everyone and said in a deep and cold voice.
Wei Bai grasped the thick barrel of the gun, and the soldiers of Shantia held their breaths. Franky blinked his eyes expressionlessly, but the light in his eyes gradually dimmed. Spartia faintly swept his gaze across the air that suddenly fell into a deathly silence. The black lines that penetrated through the sand wall seemed to form a terrifying abstract painting. His pupils slightly shrank, as if awakening the tyranny and fear in the deepest part of his heart.
"There's something strangely familiar about these black lines …"
Spartia felt inexplicably irritated. Just as he was about to open his mouth, he saw Luffy stretch out his hand and place it on the sand wall. Rusty spots appeared on the muscles on his arm. Luffy's five fingers abruptly pierced into the sand wall and grabbed one of the embedded black strands. Just like that, he forcefully pulled it out and viciously broke it.
The severed black beard fell to the ground and made a hissing sound. It jumped up from the ground like a living thing and bit at Luffy. The silver blade flashed past and the black beard was cut into pieces. The tyrannical sword intent sucked away the vitality of the black beard, turning it into a pile of black mud and sinking into the sand.
"Open the door! I know you are watching!"
The roar suddenly broke the silence of the darkness. The echoes echoed in the sealed space. It was as if there were countless voices in the darkness. It made people's scalps tingle.
"This idiot!"
Spartia's expression changed, and a layer of fine goosebumps appeared on his back. He realized that if he continued to stay with the straw hats, he would probably be buried in hell.
Suddenly, with a loud bang, a vertical crack appeared on the sand wall in front of him from the top. The crack opened inch by inch, revealing a gloomy and quiet tunnel. The front part of the tunnel split into two forks. The gloomy and bone-piercing coldness gushed out. It was like a choice of fate. Behind each fork was a different rugged horror.
Sand and mud splashed everywhere. A terrifying sharp hook pierced out from the ground. Its ferocious tail was like a chainsaw. Then, what came out was an ugly and terrifying face. Its mouth was open, and saliva was dripping from its fangs. It was emitting a fishy smell.
"Go to hell!"
Luffy glared. He had already expected that these monsters were used to sneak attacks. His eyes were filled with a terrifying murderous aura. He punched through the crawler's mouth. His fist smashed through the crawler's fangs and pierced through its long body. It was like a thrown spear, nailing the crawler's body to the ground.
He pulled out his bloody arm, raised his foot, and crushed the ugly head that was dripping with blood. Then, he strode into the labyrinth.
One after another, strange and horrifying monsters suddenly rushed out from the walls, the ground, and the ceiling of the passageway, charging fearlessly at the guests who had entered the maze. Thick blood splattered all over the walls, and the intertwined firepower of exploding gunpowder and a hail of bullets shot out. Blades flashed across, and corpses were cut into pieces and smashed onto the ground.
Not long after, the feet were covered with sticky flesh and blood. Stepping on the flesh and blood made people's hair stand on end. The straw hats and the Shantian soldiers roared like wild beasts. In response to their roars, the labyrinth guards were constantly rushing out and dying. However, from the beginning to the end, the labyrinth guards were silent.
Even when they were cut into pieces, other than the sound of bones and muscles breaking, they didn't make any extra noise. That kind of cruel silence made Spartia's face change. The light in Franky's eyes also flickered rapidly.
When they reached the fork, Spartia watched the straw hat gang enter through the middle fork. He licked his lips, and the light around him was distorted. His figure instantly turned into a "ghost shadow" and entered the other fork. He stuck close to the wall and ran into the other fork.
Franky coldly stared at the disappearing Spartia. He looked at the back of Luffy and the others. He suddenly clenched his teeth, turned off the searchlight, and entered another fork alone.
The moment the searchlight went off, the labyrinth suddenly fell into darkness. Then, a few flashlights lit up in panic. Luffy broke the heads of a few monsters. His face was stained with blood, but he didn't see Spartia and Franky.
In the original space-time, Franky would have joined the straw hats, but in this world, they didn't seem to have such a deep friendship.
He frowned and withdrew his gaze. In front of him was a quiet long corridor that extended straight into the labyrinth. The sand wall once again fell into a deathly silence. The roots that flowed in the sand wall emitted a desolate and terrifying aura.
Luffy wiped the blood on his face and looked at the monsters crazily rushing out from the other side of the tunnel. It was like a flood that flooded the tunnel.
"Let's go!"
Luffy's face turned red, and hot steam came out from his nose. His skin and muscles were boiling like molten iron. Countless punches pierced through the air.
"Second Gear: Rubber Machine Gun!"
The fierce and fierce punches covered the entire area. "Da Da Da Da Da Da" The sound of the punches was dense and harsh. In the next moment, the tide of monsters was brutally blocked. Blood splattered everywhere, and countless corpses were smashed into meat paste. The surging tide was forced back into the "gate" by the bloody scene.
The hundred-meter long tunnel was like a bloody hell. The walls on both sides of the tunnel were dyed red with blood. Wriggling tentacles rushed out from the walls and sucked in the pieces of meat.
At the other end of the tunnel, which was probably the "gate", a figure shrouded in darkness slowly walked out. The long curved scabbard was dragging on the ground. The sound of the scabbard scratching the ground was so harsh that it made people's hair stand on end.
