I’m Not Interested in Devil Fruits: 085 Visit the Castle
When Robin opened his eyes again, what he saw was...
"Eh..."
She thought about several scenarios.
Maybe it was like the first time I used the castle fruit. Because I was not proficient in it, the castle in my body had the simplest structure, that is, the style of a bare house with four walls.
Or it might just be a transparent castle... After all, Lynch's ghost is transparent...
But I never thought it would be like this...
A pretty ordinary apartment.
Two bedrooms and one living room. One bedroom, a small study room, a bathroom, and a small kitchen. The space is not very large, and although the decoration style is a bit strange, it is generally within Robin's understanding.
These are the books on the bookshelf...
Robin first walked into the study with curiosity. There are not many books on the bookshelf, some of them are still new. She tiptoed to take down a book, and when she opened it, she couldn't understand a single word...
The square characters look a bit like ancient characters... Robin rubbed his fingers over the Chinese characters on the page and turned another page, "Huh?"
It turned out to be blank.
Wow, wow, wow, she quickly flipped through the pages and took down a few more books from the bookshelf. Only a few of them were written, and many of them were missing pages. There were dozens or hundreds of pages missing, and even the entire book was missing. Blank.
"Is it because Lynch doesn't remember the contents of the book?" Robin thought, and tiptoed to put the books back on the bookshelf one by one.
She has experience using the Castle Fruit. Back then, when she was building the "Tree of Omniscient" in the castle inside her body, she created several walls of books in one breath, and reproduced at least tens of thousands of books... At that time, she couldn't reproduce them all, so she could only rely on her memory. In the end, The original copies are completely reproduced, and there are only about 700 copies...
"Oh, no... the 'castle' here should be built by Lynch's ghost... Then this bookshelf, these books, and the contents in the books are all made by his ghost. ..."
Robin blinked, a little confused.
With her hands behind her back, she looked around the study room.
A very strange study.
Especially the layout on the desk was different from any desk she had ever seen.
There were not many books, but the square black glass took up most of the space... Robin sat on the computer chair with his feet dangling in the air. She pushed the edge of the table and shook it. Are there rollers underneath? This chair is quite comfortable...
Robin leaned close to the black glass on the table, the computer monitor, and blinked. It's such a strange mirror, I can't see clearly... She used the flower-shaped real monitor to grow an eye on the wall. She was surprised to find that the back of this "mirror" seemed to be metal... and there were strange wires plugged into it. ...The petals were falling off. Robin followed these lines and put his eyes under the table, and saw a metal box with vertical cubes...
"What a strange thing..."
Robin stretched out his fingers and pressed carefully on the mechanical keyboard. The clicking sound was quite crisp.
She grabbed a lump of... plastic bricks on the right side of the keyboard? The line is connected, is it connected to the box below...
"It's a pity that it can't be used."
Robin was startled by the sudden sound. He turned around and saw Lynch appearing at the door of the study at some point, leaning against the door frame and looking at her sitting on the computer chair.
Robin came down embarrassedly, and Lynch walked over and sat down, smacking his lips, dragging him to the table, clicking on the mechanical keyboard, grabbing the mouse and swinging it around, and finally lowered his head. I pressed the host switch... Sure enough, the screen didn't respond at all.
Those with castle fruit abilities are almost equivalent to the creator of the castle within their body.
It goes without saying that the structure and layout of the castle, as well as the interior decoration, can be customized however you like. Even furniture such as tables and chairs can be customized at a moment’s notice.
Even candlelight and electricity can be provided.
Lynch guessed that the cost of these is probably the ability user's own physical strength, or his own energy.
In the Auntie comic, Becky’s inner castle even has a refrigerator, and the refrigeration function is normal.
If it's not disgusting... In fact, it might not be impossible to use the physical strength of the esper to create some water in the castle inside the body and make some simple food.
I wonder if the Straw Hats who took a bath in Becky's body in the castle used the water they brought in, or some kind of strange water...
"You can't do it, young man, you can't even do it on a computer!"
Lin Qi pushed away the keyboard, held the back of his head, and moved around the room on the computer chair.
Computer? Just as Robin was wondering, he saw a ball of white substance rising on the floor, quickly condensing into a...Eh? She opened her eyes wide and saw a tall dark figure, looking like he was wearing full body armor?
The streamlined shell, the sharp edges, the armor full of mechanical beauty... Only the eyes are on the face, glowing with a cold white light.
She noticed the other person's hands. The left hand is covered with blue flame patterns, and the right hand is covered with red flames.
The red and blue flame patterns stretch all the way along the arms, converging on the inverted triangle area on the chest that glows with white light, as if guarding a bright moon...
This arm with blue flame patterns... Robin thought about it. The arm that Lynch's ghost used to make using flower fruit was exactly the same as this!
Is it Lynch's ghost?
"B.I.B" turned to look at Robin, nodded slightly, and then said to the main body: "I can roughly make the parts in the chassis... But when it comes to the detailed circuit components, there is no way. 』
"You look good!" Lin Qi sighed and stood up.
Leaving the study, Lynch walked around the living room, bedroom, and kitchen.
"I haven't finished my stay yet..." Lynch said regretfully, finding that Robin was a little confused. He said casually: "I found an internship during my junior year, and rented a house during the summer..."
It was okay if he didn't say it, but when he did, Robin became even more confused.
Since there are doctorates in the One Piece world, there must also be schools. However, the abbreviation of junior year in Chinese custom may not be the same. Robin, who got his doctorate at the age of eight, is also unfamiliar with the word summer vacation...
Lin Qi just said it casually without intending to give a real explanation.
"Go to the next floor and have a look." Lin Qi smiled and said, "The boys' dormitory."
Robin followed Lynch and...his ghost to the next level.
It turns out that his ghost looks like this... Robin feels that this shape is different from his imagination and style!
The next floor is Lynch's college dormitory.
The next floor is the high school dormitory...
"I have to say, Lao Hei, you really understand." Lin Qi walked and looked at it. This was so sad that he almost burst into tears. He paused at the door of the high school dormitory, put his hand on "B.I.B"'s shoulder, and complained: "Look at what you did to me, I'm so nostalgic..."
Then comes the last layer, the bottom layer.
Lynch walked down the stairs and pushed open the door.
The lights in the room are bright.
The decor is warm.
Every piece of furniture, structure, placement, old and damaged areas... are all as they were in Lynch's memory.
Compared with the first level, this place has a lot more life.
The kitchen is much larger and looks like it is used frequently.
But the bedroom is different. There are posters on the wall that Robin has never seen before, and I always feel that the owner of this bedroom is a little younger than the one on the first floor...
"Sit down, you're welcome, just treat it as your own home." Lin Qi greeted, jumping up first and lying down on the small bed in his room. "Old Hei, come and take a look outside."
Robin saw the pitch-black armor standing at the door stretching out his arm and pointing at the wall directly opposite Lynch.
The wall turned into a surge of white material, and quickly turned into a huge screen with smooth mirror surface - with a beep, the screen lit up, and what appeared on the screen was the endless sea, and the perspective of the screen was in this sea Speeding through the sky.
It turns out that his ghost can still fly like this... Robin sat down on the chair next to the desk and looked at the wall screen.
In the picture, you can already see a huge red mountain peak, or "wall", getting closer and closer on the sea ahead.
That is the Red Earth Continent.
Upside Down Mountain is almost here.
