Chapter 198 Snowman Legend
Chapter 198 Snowman Legend
"snowman?!"
Profek and Star screamed.
According to the old man. Although this island is a winter island, its original climate and environment were not that harsh.
The reason why this village is what it is now, with constant wind and snow all day long, and blizzards every afternoon, is because there is a snowman hidden on the mountain outside the village.
Every time around two o'clock in the afternoon, the snowman would stir up heavy snow and enter the village under the cover of wind and snow. Sometimes, it would destroy buildings in the village and even capture people in the village many times.
"Yes, it's the snowman..."
"Wait a minute." Although Profik has never seen a snowman, he has heard the legend of the snowman. "Snowmen do appear on heavy snow days, but I have never heard that snowmen appear and bring heavy snow."
In the world of One Piece, there are certainly many strange creatures or phenomena, but except for the Neptune species, which are strange creatures that only appear in the world of One Piece, the rest are not very similar to the creatures or legendary images known by Profic in his previous life. big difference. Logically speaking, the snowman should not be an exception.
What's more, the snowman is a legendary creature, how could it appear on such an island?
On the contrary, it would be more believable to say that there is a user with Devil Fruit Phantom Beast ability lurking on this island.
"Has this so-called snowman existed since ancient times?"
The old man shook his head and said: "It didn't exist originally, but three years ago, it suddenly appeared. At the beginning,"
"Those who can?"
Star spoke, then looked at Profik.
Profik nodded. If the snowman has existed since ancient times, then it may be some magical creature. And if it suddenly appears, it can only be a person with abilities.
"How to do?"
At this time, Star naturally wanted to let Profik make the decision.
"Thank you, village chief." Profik stood up. "We already know how to deal with him."
Now that it is known that this snowman is likely to be an esper, even a very powerful phantom beast type esper, and he often captures people from the village, then of course Profik will eliminate harm for the people.
The village chief always disagreed with the adventures of these two outsiders. How could two young people know the horror of the snowman? He is covered in hair, has rough skin and thick flesh, and is extremely powerful. He can easily destroy houses, and even steel cannot damage his body. Previously, no one in the village wanted to hunt down the snowman, but even the most powerful hunters were lost in the snowstorm.
What can two outsiders do?
"Don't be afraid, the opponent is not a snowman at all, but a devil fruit user who pretends to be a ghost!"
After appeasing the old village chief, Profic and Star bid farewell to the village chief.
Originally, he wanted to sound a blue signal to summon his companions, but unexpectedly, as soon as he left the village chief's house, he saw a blue signal rising in another direction of the town.
A moment later, Profic and Star arrived at the location where the signal was sounded - the tavern where Danjuma was. Gao Shifu has arrived, and there is a thin young man wearing a fur coat who looks like a local sitting with the two of them.
Danjuma's reason for gathering everyone was to fight the snowman.
"Snowman?" When it comes to snowmen, Gao Shifu naturally thinks of things that are piled up with snow after it snows. After all, unlike Profik, he had no knowledge of the legend of the Yeti of the Himalayas.
"It's not the snowman, it's a monster, a monster!" the man sitting next to Danjuma emphasized.
"Let me tell you," Danjuma then began to tell what happened.
The young man he was with was named "Li Tong". A few days ago, a snowman appeared in the village. In order to protect Li Tong, his father was kidnapped by the snowman. In order to avenge his father, he came up with the idea of fighting the snowman.
To this end, he found two other hunters in the village who were similar to him in age and also had family members kidnapped by snowmen. He wanted to gather the strength of the three of them to find rewards from the snowmen.
Unexpectedly, although these two people are good at hunting, they immediately become intimidated when they talk about snowmen. They all said that they would lock their doors and windows, hold on to their weapons, and pray to God not to be chosen by the snowman. As for finding a snowman to fight to the death, you'd better ask someone else to do it!
The enthusiastic Danjuma immediately thought of his experience of being harassed by the Lesotho short-headed giant salamander in his hometown. After learning about the situation, he immediately expressed his willingness to help.
"Tell us about the snowman first." Originally, Profik wanted to inquire about the snowman in the village, but now he saved a lot of time. Since Li Tong's father was captured by the snowman to protect him, there is a high probability that he should have seen the snowman.
"This, so you agree to help me deal with the snowman?!" Li Tong was extremely excited. Although Danjuma agreed to help just now, he also said that the final decision would be made by the captain. At this time, Profik agreed, which was considered to have finalized the matter.
"The snowman comes and goes without a trace, but the time of its appearance is very fixed. It appears every two days, always at two o'clock in the afternoon. Moreover, every time it appears, it is accompanied by a snowstorm."
"The snowman looks a bit like a human, but his facial features are very ferocious, and his body is much stronger than a human being. He has a big bloody mouth, walks on two legs, is taller than a house, and is covered in white It has long hair and a very strong physique. However, its IQ does not seem to be very high, and it is often violent and destructive. Once, it fell into a trap set by the villagers, but it was a pity that it was not caught."
"He sometimes destroys the buildings in the village. His huge palms seem to have endless power and can destroy fences and buildings in one go. Then, he will capture the people in the village. We once found the villagers who were captured in the mountains. Corpse..."
Thinking of the tragic situation when the abducted villagers were discovered, Li Tong clenched his hands. Thinking about his father being captured by the snowman, he almost shed tears.
"Isn't your IQ high?" Star keenly captured the key point and frowned.
The IQ of those with animal devil fruit abilities will not be reduced by transforming into beast form, as both Morana and Takajuo can prove.
So, could it be said that this snowman is really some unknown creature?
Star turned his eyes to Profic, only to find that the latter was silent.
A bold guess emerged in his mind!
