(PS: This chapter explains where Kudo really went before)

Maya Island

This is a small island in the Sun Ocean that covers an area of ​​not much

Before, before the story of Zero began, it was still unknown here. The people on the island were simple and they almost didn't contact people from outside, and lived a self-sufficient life and were happy.

But now...

“A long time ago, when this world was first created…”

Nutuk, the elder of Maya Island, is amiable and often recites ancient myths and legends about bird and fish man among the island folk.

Today, he brought the villagers from the island to a cave on the island.

Through the light emitted by the burning torch in your hand, you can see that there are many murals in the cave.

"At that time, people were still fish. At that time, birds who were passing through the stars flew past the sea. Although they were afraid of the huge wings of the birds, the fisherman still said to the birds:

'You can fly, but you don't know the depth of the sea. How sad and what a pitiful guy' he said and laughed."

Nutuk paused, and everyone looked at him with curious eyes

"The birdman got angry and cut off the tail fin of the fishman in anger, and grew the tail fin from the cut; in this way, the original human - [Roykanu] was born..."

If you look at the murals carefully, you will find that what is described on the murals is what Nutuk said

Comparing now, the birdman he talked about was right under their feet

Mysterious stone statues in the sea

And those fishmen are themselves

Time goes back a few hours before Kudo Ma was shot down

"people……?"

While Kudo Ma was still confused, the sv51, which had become a fighter, attacked him. The armor of F14 was torn apart like paper.

The completely out of control of the fighter plane fell to the sea. What Kudo could do in the end was to pull the escape handle

After that he fainted

When he woke up again, he found himself in a strange place

Trying to get up, the wound on his body had been treated and all bandaged. Although the technique was not good, he barely stopped the blood.

Shaking his head, Kudo Masa began to observe the surroundings

It seems that this is a shed, and many wooden stakes support the roof can explain the problem. There is another thing that puzzles Kudo Ma.

Whether it is a wall or a wooden stake, something is carved at the same time.

Bird-like creature

"Edgar? Where are you?!"

Kudo Masa found that his adjutant was not beside him, so he shouted in a hurry. Looking around, he could not see Edgar's figure. Finally, he raised his head up, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

Sculptures of bird-shaped creatures carved several times larger than those on the walls and wooden stakes hung from the roof

I originally thought it was a bird creature, but Kudo could not find the bird closest to it.

There was a wooden stick on the ground. He picked it up and weighed it. It was just right, and there were some barbs on the stick, which was very suitable as a self-defense weapon.

Walk out of the shed, there is the beach outside, and the sea behind you

He walked forward and found an old man standing under a tree not far away. He mustered up the courage to pick up the wooden stick and look at the old man.

"What is this place? I'm asking you what is this place?!"

The old man was calm and stared at Kudo Masa with a smile

"Ha, [Alivi] is not meant to point to men."

I saw the old man take out a turtle puppet from his arms

"Do you want it? I'll take it cheaper for you"

“I’m asking you where is this place?”

“Maya…”

Another voice came from the side, Kudo's eyes shifted

Under the tree is a woman in strange clothes, with many children following behind her

"Where the sea and the wind meet, Maya, who falls from the sky, you don't belong here"

The other party said something he couldn't understand, but Kudo Ma understood that the people here could communicate

"Is this an island of anti-unification forces?"

Not only did the other party not answer his question, but instead said something that made him even less understand.

"I am the wind-grabber. The noisy wind blocks the sacred favor, so I know; once a person in the blood-filled battlefield wakes up, the wind will become turbid... The Mayan wind becomes turbid, and the stuttering will entrench among the plants. Since you wake up, leave this island quickly."

Kudo's first thought was:

This person has a ill mind, or he deliberately delays time and makes him do it

"Bored! There should be someone with me. Where is he?! Where is he?!"

"You are the only one! You are the only one who was washed here."

This is the sound coming from the tree, and everyone's eyes are focused on the tree

After a closer look, there was a girl hanging upside down on the tall tree

She jumped off the tree fluently, and then Kudo Ma could see clearly that this girl looked similar to a woman who said strange things to her.

The girl who jumped from the tree was not very afraid of Kudo Ma, but instead began to explain to him what she had said before

"The tides here are very complicated. If you are washed here, you may... be washed into the sea."

"How could it be...Edgar..."

"Do you understand? If you understand, just take the contact boat in the afternoon. The sad sea water of foreigners will also cause lag."

The woman just now blocked her body in front of the girl

"What did you say?!"

"Wait, sister, his wound has not healed yet!" Seeing that Kudo's wound cracked again and blood was leaking, the girl stepped forward and supported him.

"Mao, don't interrupt"

"If blood drips into the sea, evil spirits will come, and they will find this island along the blood!"

The woman said nothing, just listened quietly to the sound of the wind

The wind blows from afar and from high altitude, bringing messages from afar and its purpose

"The stuttering from the sea is very powerful. You can stay here before the wound heals, and the melody of the wind is singing like this..."

"That's great, she said she could stay here! I'm Ma'o, Ma'o Nom! This is my sister Sarah, Sarah Nom!"

The girl introduced herself enthusiastically, but Kudo Ma didn't have the intention to listen at all. He broke away from the girl's hand and rushed straight to the sea.

On the beach near the sea, he saw many mutilations. He picked up one of the wreckage pieces and looked carefully.

It was the wreckage of his fighter plane, and the fighter plane was shattered thoroughly, and there was no hope.

Edgar, I'm afraid there's a lot of luck

He kneeled on the beach in despair

Early the next morning

People on Maya Island live a simple life, but they can fill their stomachs.

In the Pacific Ocean, the island has a lot of aquatic products, and the best time to harvest after the rising tide in the early morning

When the tide is low, there will always be fish or shellfish that will be stranded on the beach due to terrain.

"real!"

Since she was a child, Mao has been looking forward to the outside world. Whenever someone outside the island comes here, she will crazily inquire about the outside world. In the process, she also learned a lot of things.

"Hey, what is a tram? Can you really run on two sticks at a very fast speed? Hey, is there really such a building as high as a mountain?"

Some photos of her are her collections, they are some modern technology products or urban photos

Kudo Masa, who was entangled by her, stopped

"It's such a small island with nothing... At least if you have a phone call, you can contact the Union Army." He sighed as he said that

"And, what is that kind of thing?"

Through observation, he found that the island was full of carvings or sculptures similar to birds, and they looked very strange, like birds and a bit like humans

"That's the birdman?"

"Birdman? It's better to say it's like an airplane than a bird."
