Arceus’ Pirate Journey - Chapter 868

[Chapter 867 Species Invasion and Biological Control in Wano Country]

“Damn it, real men should fight hard! What kind of sand are you playing with!”

Blissgara, who crawled out of the quicksand, was a little aggrieved, unable to fight with brute force in the end. This feeling of failure made him very unhappy.

“You young people are too irritable. It’s because of your own abilities that you can’t use it.”

No matter whether you lose or not, you lose, and the enemy will not choose a fair duel. Sentence, and then left here with Duopeng.

But Blisguera intends to take a bath first, and the yellow sand all over his body makes him very uncomfortable.

They haven’t reached the point where they can decide the winner in a few days and nights, and Doppen took advantage of the hippopotamus’ ability, which led to the end of the battle between him and Blisguera even faster.

On the contrary, the battle of those artificial fruit ability users around them continued. While Miao Na and Worf were watching the fun, Yamato came to Arceus.

“Father, are these two benefactors this time?”

“There are not many missions recently, and the number is less. What’s the matter?

” Can’t you come back?”

“Who knows? You also know that it’s normal for Kaido to disappear every day. Maybe he’s going to fight with someone again. What do you want to do?” “Nothing else, just

ask It’s just a question, I’m going to catch ants if I have nothing to do, and the two little guys there just happened to be almost trained, so let’s take them to have fun, Worf’s ability should be quite suitable for this matter.” “Wait,

catch Ants?”

Hearing Yamato’s plan, Arceus was once puzzled. It wasn’t more than ten years ago, and Miao Na and Worf were not three or four years old. They shouldn’t be interested in this thing anyway. yes.

And you have to use your ability to catch ants, what kind of ant is this?

“Ah, don’t you know, foster father? It seems that some ants were brought in from the goods brought in from outside. Those ants will eat the houses. People in Jiuli hate them.” “Termites? Wano Kingdom didn’t use them before

. That’s all.”

Wano country’s houses are mostly wooden structures, and termites have always been a headache, but cleaning them should not be so troublesome.

“It’s bigger than them, and the shells of those ants are very hard, and the number has been increasing recently.”

Listening to Yamato’s description, Arceus thought it was a phenomenon of biological invasion.

Alien species have no natural enemies and reproduce wantonly in a comfortable environment, eventually destroying the original ecological level.

There are many islands in this world, and countless islands are isolated from the world. Such islands will naturally develop their own ecological environment.

The dinosaurs on the ancient island and the giant beasts on the beast island are all creatures left by natural selection.

When a foreign species invades here, the original natural regulation will easily lose its effect.

The people in Wano Country didn’t take this matter to heart, no one reported it at all, and the people below didn’t care about a few ordinary ants.

Although those ants were much more troublesome than the local ants, they were not the kind of army ants. If Yamato hadn’t mentioned it, Arceus would not have paid attention to such things.

“Father, do you want to catch ants too?”

“No, forget it, you go and play with the two of them, and I will arrange someone to deal with it.”

Yamato didn’t delve into this matter, in her opinion Ants aren’t much of a bother either, being insects they’re pretty much everywhere, and countless people have had all sorts of weird behaviors with ant nests as kids.

Arceus just wanted to prevent these things from becoming a real disaster, and planned to control them.

The environment of Wano country has undergone several improvements before, and the extremely huge ocean currents outside are one of them. Due to those ocean currents, the corals outside Wano country have grown rapidly, and finally the good and bad star prevention and control project was launched.

There is no similar sea current in Wano, but as the place where Arceus stays most often, coupled with the influence of the power spread on Fujiyama, the environment here is suitable for the survival of almost any creature, let alone insects with strong adaptability.

A few days later, in the scallion field in Jiuli, several scallion ducks were smashing the ground with their scallions. This is an ant nest. Those ants not only caused damage to the structure of the house, but also endangered some agriculture.

The scallion of the scallion duck is one of the victims.

Their scallions need to be replaced from time to time, and the scallion field here is another lifeline for them. Facing the ants that endangered the scallions, they are merciless, waving the scallions to wipe out the ants below.

Originally, ants were also included in the recipe of the duck with green onions, but the taste of these ants was very bad. For the duck with green onions, it felt like eating rust and could not be swallowed at all.

At this time, a creature similar to an anteater emerged from the green onion field next to it. After a brief conversation, the green onion duck stepped aside and handed over the place to the anteater.

That is not an ordinary anteater, but a member of the same Pokémon-the melting anteater.

After a simple investigation, the source of these ants has been clarified. When Beasts transported fragile materials outside, ants from the outer island were mixed into the straw and soil used as filler.

This kind of ants live on islands with a lot of metal minerals. During the long evolution, their bodies have also been similarly affected, and there are special acids in their bodies that can corrode metals.

They have many natural enemies on that island, but in Wano country, the creatures here are not interested in these unpalatable ants.

In order to prevent them from overrunning Wano, Arceus created some Ants.

Professional things need professional Pokémon to do it. When it comes to ants, Molten Ant is obviously much better than Scallion Duck.

As fire-type Pokémon, their tongues can burn high-temperature flames. In the Hezhong area, they usually hunt iron ants. Those iron ants wrapped in metal shells can’t do anything about them, let alone these ants up.

The appearance of the melting anteater is very similar to that of an anteater, but it has orange-red patterns, and a tube-shaped part of the abdomen that connects to the tail.

The air holes at the tail suck in air, and the temperature of the flame on the tongue also increases accordingly. The tongue of fire in the true sense goes deep into the ant nest, and a large number of ants are scorched and turned into their food.

The tastes of different Pokémon are completely different. The food that is difficult to swallow for the scallion duck is delicious for the melting ant.

With its sharp claws, it dug up the soil outside the ant nest, and the Ant Beast enjoyed its own delicacy, and left here after a while to find the location of the next ant nest.

These ants themselves are not very strong creatures. After having natural enemies, they were quickly contained to a range that would not affect the environment.
