I’m Not Interested in Devil Fruits: 666 Retrograde (14,000 words)

〖Western Sea〗

Crossing the half-circle of the red earth continent of the Upside Down Mountain, a large snake with long green hair and green scales flapped its wings and soared among the high white clouds.

On her back, a green phone bug lay quietly, taking a nap with its eyes closed.

"Finally entered the West Sea..." Sanda murmured to himself as he flew in the wind.

In the Phone Bug Castle, there are only Robin, Tulip, and another "Sanda" with a dull expression. It was Robin who made Sanda's clone of himself.

Long-distance flights are tiring. In order to relieve Sanda's burden, both Robin and Tulip entered Little Green's internal castle.

Flying is also very boring, so Robin made a clone of Sanda and placed it on a comfortable castle sofa. With Robin's eyes and ears of flowers in the outside world, he could have no contact with Sanda in this way. Barriers to communication.

Robin slowly told Tulip and Sanda the story of the two women both named Lily.

Tulip listened carefully, occasionally asked questions, and nodded.

As for the others...

Hancock recuperates and uses her life paper as a navigation device. Of course she must stay in Nine Snakes. Besides, Hancock himself has no interest in the Flower Country.

The second sister wanted to send Tulip and Robin to the Kingdom of Flowers, so Marigrud took the initiative to stay and take care of the eldest sister. Although Hancock has repeatedly stated that she does not need care.

As for "B.I.B"...

Robin was frightened by Hancock's sudden collapse-like injury, so he didn't let "B.I.B" follow him. He asked him to stay with Hancock and pay careful attention.

What if Mary Joa, the immortal person, turns to Robin's Flower Fruit and Sanda's Flying Snake Fruit?

At present, it seems that the other party has no such plan. Maybe it's really dismissive.

The reason why she targeted Hancock was probably because she directly killed the three members of the Celestial Dragon family... and therefore attracted some attention.

And this kind of gaze is only once, because the opponent's shot is a sure-kill blow.

If "B.I.B" hadn't happened to be by my side...

Hancock, who petrified and killed three Draconians, undoubtedly ended badly. With that kind of physical collapse, even if you don't die, your vitality will be severely damaged, and you may even become disabled.

After being stopped in time by "B.I.B", the unknown malicious attack never appeared again...

However, just to be on the safe side, before leaving, Robin made life cards for Sanda, Mary and himself.

Together with Hancock's life paper, which was written with their names and torn into many pieces, she, Hancock, Sanda, and Mary all held fragments of other people's life papers.

In addition, regarding the Tianlong people...

The newspapers never published any news about the three petrified Celestial Dragons.

There are reports that the Navy used emergency calls, mobilized warships into the windless zone, and used the Demon-Slaying Order on Nine Snakes Island... However, there was no follow-up to this piece of news, because the Navy headquarters was subsequently attacked by Kaido, the Emperor of the Sea. The big news about Malinfando took up the page.

The world has turned its attention to the second half of the great route, and turned to the battle between the old sea emperor and the navy.

However, there has been no definite conclusion among the general public for so many years as to where Kaido's lair is in the New World.

I just know that he must be entrenched in a certain sea area of ​​​​the New World...

But few people know exactly where it is.

Some people guess that he must be in the second half of the new world where there is no magnetic route, in the sea beyond Suixian Island, the end point of the magnetic route.

Some people with more experience have speculated that Kaido might be on the Pirate Island "Hive" where the Rocks Pirates were once most prosperous.

Of course, some people think that Kaido might be hiding in Wano, a country with little information and surrounded by natural dangers...

But no one believed it.

That legendary country of warriors! How could Kaido forcefully take over?

Didn’t that stab the samurai’s nest?

How could he still be so good and fly around the New World for two laps when he had nothing to do? Could it be that in the mysterious and powerful warrior country, there is no real top strong man who can slay the dragon?

The legend of "Dragon-Slaying Swordsman" Ryoma is a beautiful story spread all over the world!

Dragon slaying can be said to be a traditional art of Wano! At least that's what many people in the world who read storybooks think. Kaido can't be hidden anywhere in Wano Country. Wouldn't that be a bargain?

Robin and the others were naturally not interested in paying attention to the dispute between Kaido and the Navy, but the newspaper did change the focus of the discussion. The Navy's demon-slaying order against Nine Snakes was not followed up, and the results were not reported.

The influence of world governments on newspapers and public opinion on key issues is greater than imagined...

Robin was silent. It is also possible that the birdman Morgans of the World Economic News newspaper knew how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and knew what news should be published in newspapers. Although it would anger the World Government, it would not hurt his muscles and bones.

And some news, it is true that not a word can be published in the newspaper...

……

["Even so, Hancock, you have tried not to show up casually in recent years..."]

[Before Nine Snakes left, Robin and Hancock hugged each other gently, "We can't even report it. What if we attract the attention of the person deep in Mariejoia again..."]

[Sanda and Mary also nodded in admonishment. Hancock's previous appearance where he was suddenly covered in blood, as if he would wither like a blood flower in the next second, really scared them to death. 】

[Hancock rolled his eyes and said impatiently: "Okay, I get it."]

["B.I.B" waved to Robin and Tulip who were on the back of the flying snake, and shouted: "Sweep my grave for me..."]

[Robin nodded and entered the Telephone Bug Castle with Tulip. 】

【"Then let's go!" The green-scaled snake rose into the sky. 】

……

"Ruth Gap Island, is that there?"

The green-scaled snake spread its broad wings and did not fly very far after crossing the Red Earth Continent. Following the prompts from Princess Robin listened to by her clone in the Telephone Bug Castle, she quickly found an island near the waters of Upside Down Mountain.

"Little village, little village... found!"

Sanda carried Xiao Lu and circled over Rath Gap Island, swooping towards the flower field hillside outside the small village indicated by Robin.

Robin and Tulip jumped out of the Phone Bug Castle. They stood side by side on Sanda's back, and the wind in front of them ruffled their long hair.

Robin picked up Xiaolu and put it in his bag.

The tulips looked down into the wind, looking at the hillside and the flower fields swaying in the wind.

On the side of the hillside, you can vaguely see a tombstone standing.

In front of the tomb, a woman's figure is cleaning the surrounding weeds...

Suddenly, the woman felt something in her heart. She turned back to look at the sky and saw only a huge figure with wings spread. It was not clear against the light. She was slightly startled at first, and soon heard a familiar voice:

"Xianglian, it's me."

"Xu Lun?" The woman squinted her eyes and looked at the flying green snake that was slowly landing and the pair of women jumping off her back. One of them had long blond hair and an elegant and calm demeanor, while the other There was a girl with long black hair and an indescribable gloom between her eyebrows. As for the green snake with wide wings, it quickly shrank in size after the two girls landed, turning into a beautiful girl with long green snake hair who followed behind the two girls. , looking at the surrounding environment with novel eyes.

The woman cleaning the weeds around Lily's tomb is Lily's sworn sister Xianglian.

When Ayu ascended the throne and things calmed down in the Kingdom of Flowers, she no longer had any worries, so she asked Lin Qi and Robin about the place where Lily was buried, and prepared to guard her sworn sister's grave here alone for the rest of her life.

Xiang Lian took a deep look at the black-haired woman who brought people down from the sky, "No, I should call you now, Nicole Robin..."

"Sorry," Robin smiled bitterly, "I concealed my identity from you."

Xiang Lian shook his head, "Why do you need to apologize? Concealing it is right. People in Xihai... understand the meaning behind the name 'Son of the Devil' best."

Tulip walks directly to Lily's grave.

"Who are they? Why don't you introduce them?" Xianglian looked beside Robin, but did not find the black figure, and her heart sank slightly, "Where is Lin Qi? Sure enough... did something happen to him?"

"..." Robin said, "They...are the bloodline that Princess Lily left behind overseas."

Xianglian was shocked and looked at Sangda and Tulip.

Tulip waved her hand, "Don't worry about us, just drop in and take a look..."

She folded a flower and sat down in front of Lily's grave. She looked at the woman with a bright smile in the photo on the tombstone and said to herself: "No wonder Xu Lun was so surprised when you heard me tell about Princess Lily... It turns out that Qiao Lu Nona’s mother also has such a story.”

"It's amazing."

On the way, Sanda also listened to Robin's story in the Telephone Bug Castle. He admired Lynch's mother very much, but it was a pity that such a powerful and beautiful woman was not born in Nine Snakes.

Sangda picked three flowers and placed them gently in front of Lily's tombstone. He clasped his hands together and bowed.

"Is there any wine?"

The breeze blew Tulip's long golden hair. She sat in front of the monument and asked casually, "I want to have a drink with her."

"..." Xianglian was silent, and quickly brought a pot of wine and poured a glass for Tulip.

Robin quietly told Xianglian the past of Nine Snake Island...

Xiang Lian was disappointed after hearing this. He didn’t expect what Princess Lily had gone through after leaving the Kingdom of Flowers, and finally chose to enter the Windless Zone and establish a kingdom of only women on Nine Snake Island.

After three hundred years, the descendants of Princess Lily finally returned to the Kingdom of Flowers in the West Sea...

"This cup will punish you," Tulip raised her glass and joked to the lily on the tombstone. "It's not enough for your son to occupy the only princess of our country since the founding of the Nine Snakes. He actually kept our Nine Snakes for hundreds of years." The heart of the most beautiful girl was taken away. Tsk, tsk, tsk, you are so greedy! Do you think I should be punished?"

The previous generation Snake Girl smiled smartly, raised her glass and sprinkled it on the ground in front of the tomb.

Xianglian looked at Robin. Robin explained: "Princess Lily left a legacy in Nine Snakes, and the flowers and fruits are the national treasures of Nine Snakes, so Tulip made me the princess of Nine Snakes..."

Sanda felt sad for a while, and thought about it carefully. Tulip pretended to execute her sister Hancock, but actually forced out Princess Robin, who was suspected of possessing the flower fruit. That was a long time ago, but it felt like it happened yesterday. , everything is vividly visible.

Tulip poured herself a glass, "It's a pity, it's only fate! It would have been nice if you could have found Nine Snakes. Maybe we could have a discussion... and become sisters, I don't know."

After finishing the pot of wine, Tulip stood up.

"I want to talk to Lily alone..."

Robin said to them before leaving.

Xianglian nodded and took Tulip and Sangda away.

Sangda told Xianglian by the way the purpose of their trip. They came specifically to ask the current leader of the Kingdom of Flowers, Ayu, a black dragon fruit user, for a favor.

Xianglian listened and looked back to see Robin sitting alone in front of Lily's grave, not knowing what to say.

But actually...

The three women present can more or less guess what she will say.

Obviously it’s about Lynch...

Xiang Lian was silent about this. She had resisted asking just now because she knew that Robin herself would tell Sister Lily.

……

"I'm sorry..."

Robin knelt in front of the tomb, pressing his knees with one hand and grabbing the dirt ground with the other hand, grabbing the grass roots.

"It's all my fault that I didn't think highly of him... I said yes..."

She murmured, raising her red eyes and looking at the woman with a bright smile in the photo.

Robin stretched out her hand and gently touched Lily's tombstone. After standing up, she removed her fingertips and said, "Can I call you...'Mom'?" She twitched the corners of her mouth and forced a smile.

After pausing in front of the tomb for a moment, Robin sniffed the sour red tip of his nose and rubbed his eyes with the heels of his palms.

She quickly regained her composure, Tulip and the others were still waiting for her. He quickly turned around and left, heading towards the green-scaled snake outside the woods that had changed its shape and spread its broad wings...

The green-scaled snake spread its wings and flew away. Xianglian returned to the tomb and saw the remaining tear marks on her back. She shook her head and sat down, sighing: "Lin Qi will be fine, right? Sister Lily... you are like hell. If you know, watch him."

"Sister Xu Lun!!"

Ayu, who was wearing the Queen's casual clothes, burst into tears and threw herself into Robin's arms.

Seeing that Ayu was safe and sound, Robin felt relieved and touched Ayu's back.

"Should I call you Sister Robin?" Lily followed and came over, sticking out her tongue and saying, "Teacher Robin."

Ayu raised her head in Robin's arms, her big eyes flashing with tears, and she sobbed: "There has been a lot of scary news in the newspapers recently... Qingjiao and the others said... Brother Lin Qi might have had an accident... Yes Really?"

Robin said nothing.

Ayu took a deep breath, but tears still fell down, "It's all my fault, the black dragon fruit should have been given to Brother Lin Qi... It's all my fault, it's all my fault..."

Lily was anxious, but she didn’t know how to persuade him.

"I'm going for a walk." Tulip looked at Ayu intently, smiled softly, left a message to Robin, and left the palace in the direction of the New Flower Capital.

Sanda didn't follow. She had just been offered a bounty of 400 million beli recently. There were many people and it was better not to run around and cause trouble.

As for Tulip, she rarely appears in the eyes of newspapers and the world. She has always been low-key and mysterious. I am afraid that not many people can dig out her former reward orders from the pile of old papers, but it doesn't matter...

While comforting Ayu, Robin also stopped for a while at the Royal Palace of the Kingdom of Flowers, mainly to let Sangda, who had flown all the way to the Kingdom of Flowers, have a good rest.

Lily went to let the royal chef prepare a sumptuous meal.

Sang Da said with interest: "It looks delicious. Hey, is it a bit similar to our Nine Snake dishes? Then Lynch should like it too"

She opened her mouth, quickly shut up, and started eating. She glanced at Robin carefully and saw the princess gently patting Ayu's back to comfort her while whispering to her about moving to the island. .

Ayu did not hesitate, "Okay!"

The flying ability of the Black Dragon Fruit is very different from other Devil Fruits. Lynch took the time to study this after defeating the Lord of the Black Dragon Kingdom, which can be regarded as exploring the fruit development path for Ayu.

The black dragon, as well as Kaido's blue dragon that Lynch knows, have the same flying ability.

Cloud climbing.

Not only can it climb the clouds and mists that exist in the sky, but the Black Dragon Fruit can also make its own special clouds. In fact, it can also be considered that the Black Dragon can climb the clouds and mists that exist in the sky and convert them into what it needs for flight. The process of special cloud.

"Flame Cloud" seems to be called that.

According to Lynch's analysis at the time, this kind of "flame cloud" that can drag the huge and heavy body of the black dragon and fly all over the sky effortlessly is actually... somewhat similar to the ability of Piao Piao Fruit. .

Things touched by the flame cloud will "fly into the air".

There is no need to reason, Devil Fruit is not reasonable to you. If you say you can fly, you can fly and it consumes very little physical energy.

The golden lion can easily move an island to the sky with the Piao Piao Fruit. If it is a skill that continuously burns blue, then no matter how strong the golden lion is, it will have been drained by the Piao Piao Fruit.

The flame cloud of the black dragon fruit is also similar. The black dragon's energy consumption only lies in the moment when it creates the flame cloud.

As for the subsequent Yanyun lifting the black dragon's huge body into the air, even in Lynch's original idea, maybe as long as enough is produced, Yanyun can lift an entire island into the sky... That's all Yanyun The effect itself has nothing to do with the black dragon's physical strength.

【"The wind follows the tiger, the cloud follows the dragon"!"]

[That is, Lin Qi took out the Black Dragon Fruit chip from his body and put it into Ayu's body again, "Haha, indeed, it is instinct for the dragon to ride on the clouds; it is the attribute of Yanyun itself that the clouds rise and lift everything... ”]

……

Soon, after a big meal, Sanda patted his belly and said, "I'm full and full of energy!" He spread his wings and flapped twice, and he was ready to go at any time.

Not long after, Tulip also came back from the New Flower Capital, holding a small brocade box in her hand.

"What is this?" Sanda asked curiously.

The tulips opened with a smile, and Sanda wondered, "Dirt?"

This is Tulip's journey through the five provinces of the Kingdom of Flowers, picking up a handful of soil from each place and packing it together. She planned to bring back Nine Snakes and place them in front of the coffin of the founding emperor Lily as a memorial.

Ayu wiped away her tears and said goodbye to her friend Lily. She was about to transform into a black dragon, but was stopped by Robin.

"Let's go to the Phone Bug Castle first and wait until Sanda takes us out of the Kingdom of Flowers." Robin explained, and then took Tulip and Ayu to jump into the castle inside Xiao Lu's body.

Lily's big eyes approached the castle entrance and waved goodbye to them.

Sangda hissed out the letter, transformed into a green-scaled snake, spread out a pair of snake wings tens of meters wide, and flew away with the little green wings.

Leaving the waters of the Kingdom of Flowers, Sanda flew straight to the windless zone. Soon, a long black dragon flew out of the green phone bugs on his back.

Sanda flapped her long, wide and powerful wings and looked sideways at the winding and soaring black dragon. She saw at the feet of her four dragon claws, clouds and mist that danced like flames, swirling and extinguishing, holding up what was supposed to be The extremely heavy dragon body is flying high in the sky...

"It's really magical." Sangda spat out the message and galloped side by side with the black dragon at high altitude. Soon they crossed over the red earth continent on the side of the Upside Down Mountain, entered the windless sea area on the opposite side, and continued to move straight forward.

Rumble, rumble, rumble...

The women on Nine Snake Island were fishing, hunting, farming and weaving when they suddenly felt the ground beneath their feet shaking and humming.

"An earthquake?"

The women looked at each other, they had never seen an earthquake in the windless zone! Those large sea kings generally do not attack the island itself...

Soon, Hancock stood in front of the imperial palace to announce the situation, and the women of Nine Snakes understood what was happening.

Moving!

I never thought that one day, Nine Snakes would be able to move...

"Look at the sky!" On the training ground in Nine Snakes City, Margaret, a six-year-old girl with short blond hair, pointed in the air and exclaimed, "The black dragon... so amazing..."

Ayu, who transformed into a black dragon, hovered on the top of the Nine Snake Mountains, looking up at the entire Nine Snakes City and the densely packed women in the streets of the city...

"This is the country established by Princess Lily..." Black Dragon said to herself. She had flown to Nine Snakes Island all the way. She had already heard Sister Robin tell some things and understood a lot.

Rumble, the flame clouds created by the black dragon wrapped around Nine Snakes Island in circles, and a huge island floated and soared into the sky with a huge roar...

The bottom of the cone-shaped island is surrounded by circles of flame clouds with the power to soar, leaving a huge whirlpool on the sea below. The passing Neptunes were stirred by the currents in the vortex, and they were also panicking. A little confused...

The women of Nine Snakes looked down around the island, marveling at such a spectacle and feat.

"Ruskai...?"

The black dragon controls the countless flame clouds that hold up Nine Snakes Island, moving the entire island at high altitudes, while speaking human words.

The pitch-black armor floated next to her dragon head, reminding her: "Luskaina Island is over there." 』

"Oh, okay." Black Dragon nodded. She was only controlling the flow direction of the flame clouds. She was not really lifting the entire island by herself, so it was actually quite easy. With a thought, she commanded the flame cloud community. He lifted Nine Snake Island and flew in the direction pointed by "B.I.B".

Rumble, rumble, rumble...

The huge Nine Snake Island came near the even bigger Lusikaina Island. The animals on the island were stunned and looked at the huge suspended flying island flying in the sky. What happened?

For a moment, the beast retreated and panic spread.

"It's strange, why is it winter on this island?" The black dragon flew over Luskaina Island, looking at the heavy snow in the sky, very surprised, but did not delay the serious business, and followed the request of "B.I.B" , waved the dragon claw again, creating another large flame cloud, rolling towards the surroundings of Lusikaina Island, and escaping into the bottom of the island. Soon, this island with forty-eight seasons a year also slowly rose into the sky, and the bottom Circling and entwining countless flame clouds.

Looking at the black dragon hovering in the sky at the top of the Nine Snakes Mountain, Hancock said: "Let's go."

Boom, boom, boom, boom…

The two islands of different sizes are surrounded by countless similar flame clouds at the bottom. At an altitude of several thousand meters, they "slowly" cross the red earth continent along the windless sea area like a "walkway" below. Entering the windless zone on one side of the New World segment...

This novel experience amazed the female warriors of Nine Snakes, and they all laughed and said: "We moved directly to the windless zone of the new world. Now the navy no longer has to spend one or two hundred years exploring the windless zone. Take it with you, I’m afraid you’ll never find us again.”

No, they don't even know where they want to settle down now.

Robin was blowing in the wind and looked at the direction of the West Sea on that side. He silently made a rough calculation in his mind, which area of ​​the windless zone is approximately the location that is close to the Kingdom of Flowers and Rath Gap Island. Section...

In the sky, the petals on the back of Ayu's black scale neck, who was circling and controlling the endless flame clouds holding up the two large islands, surged up, and the upper body of a Robin emerged, saying to her: "Just land in front."

Ayu looked across the sea from a high altitude. This location seemed not too far from the Kingdom of Flowers. When she was free, she could fly over and have a look. She couldn't help but feel very happy.

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom...

The black dragon controlled the flame cloud and slowly lowered the Nine Snakes Island and Luskaina Island... During the process, the Nine Snakes Island was fine, and occasionally there were some strange beasts on the Luskaina Island. Shen fell, and from a distance, it looked like dust shaken off from around the island.

The calm windless ocean was suppressed by two slowly landing islands, creating an amazing whirlpool of currents, but it soon subsided...

The women of Nine Snakes looked around. There was also no wind and no waves. The Neptunes in the sea were also the same giant ones. There was even a Luskaina Island that they often used as a test site for archery next to them... they couldn't help but wonder I muttered a little, but I didn’t seem to notice any changes?

The new Nine Snakes Island is completed.

There is a strait of more than ten meters separated from Luskaina Island. The women of Kuja can jump across the distance if they practice hard. But for the large beasts on the other side, as long as Kuja sends soldiers to stand guard and keep watch. , come and shoot one, they are all here to give.

The soldiers are very satisfied, and after leaving the Windless Zone, it is no longer a paradise, but a new world with more masters, and everyone is even more satisfied.

This kind of martial and bellicose atmosphere impressed Ayu deeply, who had put away the black dragon form from high altitude and returned to the posture of a girl. She thought that the residents of Nine Snakes would be reluctant and even dissatisfied with the resettlement, but she didn't expect As soon as they settled down, they were already very satisfied with patrolling around and checking out the sea conditions around Nine Snakes Island. They were even a little eager to go hunting on Ruskaina Island to celebrate, or they were gearing up to go out to sea for new adventures. Traveling around the world and stuff like that.

Of course, all of this was stopped by Hancock, who ordered that no one should discuss matters outside the sea without her permission.

Hancock's reputation in Nine Snakes is as high as it can be in theory. The citizens have no objection at all, and she is the only one who follows his lead.

"Come on, Ayu."

Tulip held the little brocade box in one hand and waved at the little queen from the Kingdom of Flowers with the other, "Don't you want to worship Princess Lily?"

"Yeah!" Ayu's heart trembled and she followed.

In the depths of Nine Snake Mountain, inside the deep mausoleum, Ayu slowly prostrated himself in front of a simple carved coffin. Tulip gently placed the brocade box on the coffin...

〖Ruscaina Island〗

In late autumn, the fallen leaves are falling.

In the "safe zone" in the middle of the island, in front of the big tree like a big white radish, Robin sat quietly here.

Behind him, Hancock came from Nine Snakes, casually throwing a dead 20-meter-tall lion-headed beast on the roadside, and slowly walked to Robin, "I knew you were here."

"Ayu came to play. Seeing that you were not here, I went back." Hancock looked up at the top of the big white radish tree. The dark armor was sitting in the sky. He didn't know what he was practicing, and he frowned slightly. "Shouldn't it be 'involved' anymore?"

Robin said softly: "It is true that it no longer takes action and rarely uses its domineering force...but it also said that now is the time when his body needs it to practice together the most."

"So it is also practicing the return of life now?"

"'B.I.B' and its body have never specialized in the same Kung Fu together." Robin said, "But even so..."

Hancock said expressionlessly: "Even so, when it is taken back by Lynch in the future, although it will gain more experience in life return practice, it may explode and break through in one fell swoop, but it's also possible that I will be exhausted directly.”

"..."

Robin was silent for a long time.

Hancock lowered his head and noticed that she had been looking at the square line of text written on the trunk of the big white radish tree in front of her.

Hancock seems to be somewhat impressed by this thing...

"That year, when I first came here, he asked me to carve this sentence in ancient characters." Robin looked at the line of obscure ancient characters and whispered to himself, "" Destiny is a sleeping slave." The sentence is from an interesting comic that is very similar to his stand-in ability, and the signature is from a strange work that is not so interesting..."

Hancock remained silent as Robin continued to murmur: "Hancock, do you think there is such a thing as fate?"

"..." Hancock did not answer, and did not know how to answer.

Robin didn't wait for her answer, and said to himself: "I've been wondering recently whether Lynch might have had some revelation in his subconscious at that time. Otherwise, why would he leave such one among so many sentences... ”

"..." Hancock glanced, "I think you may be thinking too much."

『Indeed. 』

Hancock looked up and saw the black armor flying down and floating in front of them.

"B.I.B"'s narrow eyes shimmered, looking at Robin sitting on the ground, "I can testify that the main body just happened to remember this sentence at that time..."

Robin smiled, hesitated for a while, then stood up, "Let's go, I'm hungry."

She came to the corpse of a giant lion-headed beast that was dozens of meters tall that Hancock casually killed. She raised her hand and summoned dozens or hundreds of arms to fight against the corpse.

"Just eat this?" Robin asked.

Hancock looked at her and nodded slowly, "Okay!"

Not long after, the smoke from the barbecue rose in the middle of Luskaina Island...

The steam was steaming in the bathhouse dedicated to the empress. Hancock walked slowly towards the huge bath, his floral skirt falling like water, and he stepped into the hot pool step by step.

Rushing, she raised her hand to splash the water and sat on the edge of the pool.

"..."

Hancock looked at his palm. It had been more than a year, and the so-called immortal existence deep in Mariejoia had never used that weird method to forcibly peel off the Medusa Fruit in his body.

As calm as if nothing happened...

Except for missing that person around me.

Hancock raised his head, closed his eyes, and sighed softly... Suddenly, there was the sound of running from behind. Hancock opened his eyes and regained his cold and arrogant expression.

"Sister! It's not good!" Sanda and Mary hurried in, holding a note in their hands, "Princess Robin, she...she..."

Wow!

Hancock walked out of the bath and walked quickly to them. Mary handed her a bathrobe to put on her sister, while Hancock stared at the note in Sanda's hand.

There is only one line of Robin's message above.

"Go out for a walk, relax... don't think about it"

The handwriting is not smooth and there are many pauses. It is obvious that Robin was very hesitant when writing.

Mary Grudd whispered: "No wonder the princess has been a little absent-minded recently, always looking in the direction of the sea in a daze..."

Sangda sighed: "I think the princess wanted to leave everyone from the beginning... Because she couldn't worry about 'that thing', she stayed for more than a year to make sure that nothing happened, and then she finally felt relieved. Leave."

That incident naturally refers to the incident more than a year ago when Hancock was suddenly stripped of the Medusa Fruit and almost died of serious injuries.

"..." Hancock had no expression on his face, crumpled the note into a ball in his palm, and looked up at his two sisters.

Sanda and Mary glanced at each other and left obediently.

After the two sisters left, Hancock's cold and arrogant expression suddenly softened, and he said to himself: "Fool..."

She let go of her hand and smoothed out the wrinkles on the note bit by bit. She looked at the sluggish handwriting with some worry in her beautiful eyes.

She had heard a lot about the "Devil's Son" off and on.

Western Sea, O'Hara...

Intentionally or unintentionally, Hancock also found out clearly from the mouth of Ayu, a native of Xihai.

So, Hancock suddenly found that he really couldn't say his words of persuasion to Robin.

If you haven’t experienced the same despair and hell, and you can’t even empathize with them, how can you really understand the other person’s mood at this time? Even if you say it, it’s just superficial comfort.

Losing Lynch may have hit Robin harder than Hancock once thought...

Especially, in an environment where people around her seemed to think that she should not be desperate, depressed, or pessimistic.

Over the past year... Hancock recalled the Robin he had inadvertently seen walking on the edge of the Nine Snakes warriors, the Robin who accompanied Ayu who came to visit but did not turn the page for a long time. Robin, who was invisible and finally found herself alone in the phone bug castle... When she was silently by our side, how many times did she restrain herself from wanting to escape and disappear forever without disturbing anyone. impulse?

"Fool."

Hancock sighed softly and lowered his eyes to look at his reflection in the hot water pool.

She had no expression on her face, and with a flick of her finger, the water surface burst open, creating circles of water ripples...

……

Washing, the faucet in the bathroom was spraying water, and clumps of black hair were scattered and washed away by the water.

Robin raised her head, wiped the mirror in front of her, and looked at the woman with a refreshing short hair in the mirror, which was herself.

After washing his hands, Robin wiped his face and touched his head which was not very prickly. "B.I.B" was not reflected in the mirror, but she could sense it was next to her. She couldn't help but touch her head and asked, "How is it?"

『...』『B.I.B』 looked at it and said seriously, "Don't be like this, it's scary." 』

"How could it be?" Robin asked strangely, "Before..." After a pause, "Isn't it you who shaved it for me? What else did you say, 'Sure enough, only truly handsome men and beauties can pull off this hairstyle.' And so on..."

"B.I.B" shrugged, "That's true. 』

"You still have a face..." Robin muttered to himself, waving his hand to the mirror and smearing it on his face. The original facial features with clear lines, a high nose bridge, and deep eye sockets, under the "smear" of the petals, turned into a The appearance of an ordinary girl with freckles. Looking in the mirror, the pirate Nico Robin, who had a bounty of 970 million on his head, was gone. All he could see was a short-cut woman with an average face and small freckles.

Outside the Telephone Bug Castle, a small wooden boat galloped on the windless sea at the speed of an arrow.

Under the boat, there is a carefree sea king pushing the boat forward...

A woman with a freckled face and a short head suddenly appeared out of thin air on a small wooden boat. She picked up the phone bug in the boat and looked at the endless windless belt in front of her. She said to herself: "I remember you said that there might be two windless belts. The 'highway' that runs through the world...am I using the windless zone as a highway now?"

『...』The jet-black armor flew out of the phone bug. He was silent for a moment and said dumbly, "Don't be scary, you're so scary..."

Knowing that it was intentionally teasing, Robin just smiled lightly, fleetingly.

"Princess Rose! Come down quickly!"

Many soldiers gathered in the square of the reconstructed palace on Kraigana Island. The leader of the guard, Gance, anxiously shouted to the sky, "It's too dangerous!!"

Unfortunately, Rose seemed not to have heard anything and used the air duct created by the Guan Guan fruit to hover in the sky alone, looking at the sea from a distance, in a daze...

"Stop shouting, Gance." The king slowly walked out of the palace.

"Your Majesty the King!" The soldiers saluted one after another. The King waved his hands and stood next to Gance, looking up and sighing: "Let this child have some time of his own...Since I followed Giorno and Xu Lun in the newspaper After the incident, she has been in a very low mood..."

"..." Gance could only sigh in the end.

In the sky, Rose slid with her knees in the air duct, pouting and looking at the sea in the distance. Suddenly, she looked towards the royal city below, "...?!"

I don’t know why, but she had a feeling just now, as if she felt that a familiar gaze was looking at her.

But there were people coming and going in the streets of the royal city, and Rose could not find those two figures that she would never forget.

On the street, a woman with short hair and freckles looked back at the lonely figure in the sky.

……

The huge arena on the resort island has also been rebuilt and improved.

On the sign outside, it is recorded in a very unobtrusive manner that the competition for the world's greatest swordsman was once held here. There were even great pirates who came from the New World to participate, including Big Mom. People from the pirate group!

He also emphatically boasted about Kujo Seulun and Giovanna Giorno, who later became King Shichibukai... Of course, these two names were crossed out with a line between them, and it said Nico Robin and Lynch...

The woman with short hair and freckles stood in front of the gaudy billboard. Someone not far away, who didn’t know whether he was a tour guide or something else, came over and introduced enthusiastically: "Although they have been disqualified from the Shichibukai two years ago, I'm not afraid of the King's Shichibukai who showed off their skills in our arena, but there are more than just the JOJO Pirates! There is also the famous Crocodile, including Mihawk, who is now the world's greatest swordsman, Hawkeye...sigh. Oh, don’t leave?”

"B.I.B" walked beside him and took a curious look inside the arena. He wondered what would happen to Tezoro who had the Golden Fruit taken away by him?

……

The scenery of Taose Island is still so magnificent and fantastic... From a distance, it looks like a pink fairy tale world.

The freckled-faced woman with a long shaved head stood in front of the boat, but did not move the boat over in the end.

She didn't want the ladyboys to know that she was here. After watching them from a distance for a while, she turned back and entered the Telephone Bug Castle. The freckle mask on her face peeled off little by little, revealing Robin's appearance.

She rolled up her sleeves and walked to the kitchen, "Peach Island's offensive cuisine, I hope I haven't forgotten how to make it..."

"It's really delicious..." "B.I.B" was suspended in the living room, silently complaining, "Although I have no mouth." 』

"It doesn't matter," Robin turned on the stove, "I'll eat."

……

"The prince is really going too far!!!"

The entrance to the palace was crowded with injured people, each with wounds from slashes. They were excited towards the palace soldiers who were maintaining order, "The white horse is released to cause trouble again, he can't be quiet... …Would you like to take a nap…Ah, I’m suddenly not angry anymore…”

Everyone's tone suddenly dropped, becoming gentle, relaxed, and even a little bit like laughing.

Behind the scenes, Marianne finished painting the last stroke, looked at the giant pattern "Leisurely Green" on the palace street below everyone, and nodded.

Beside her, the girl Amorin and her mother Anne said worriedly: "What can we do? The white horse actually broke through the suppression of the 'leisure green' you painted on Prince Cavendish's back... …”

Marian held up the brush and said: "It doesn't matter. Next time I paint 'Friends' Yellow and Green', maybe we can become friends."

"Eh?!" Mother and son Amorin and Anne were shocked, "Is this okay?"

On the street not far away, a woman wearing a fisherman hat and sunglasses put down her coffee cup, got up and left.

……

A row of "Stomach Counts" on the sea line this sea area.

The beetle-like Hercules suddenly said "Huh?", "I am Hercules! I always feel like an old friend is passing by... I am Hercules, Masked Superman? Huh!"

Not far from the Boeing Islands, a small wooden boat passed quickly not far away. There was a huge shadow under the boat, as if it was carrying the boat forward.

A freckled woman is sitting in a boat, turning a page of the book in her hand.

……

What was once a small village has become a pile of ruins and is in dire straits.

The freckled woman was dressed like a traveler, looking at the "relics" of the small village ahead.

"Haha! Found you!"

Suddenly, she saw several children laughing and playing in the ruins of the small village.

Robin called them over and asked, and learned that these children were playing hide and seek here because the terrain was very convenient and interesting.

A boy looked up and said: "You are so ugly, you have so many freckles."

"..." Robin asked, "Where are the people in this village?"

"I don't know," the boy and his companions laughed and said, "I heard it was destroyed by fish-men!"

"No! It was destroyed by the navy!" The friend retorted.

"Fool! How could the navy destroy the village?" The boy pushed his friend.

Another child said: "I heard it was done by pirates..."

"The fishman is a pirate!" the boy said firmly, "What's the difference?"

"No, I heard it's a human being, but it's definitely not a fish-man!" The child thought hard, "What does it seem to be called... Brother Jun? What a strange name!"

Revolutionary Army...? Robin was silent, looking at the remaining ruins of the village in front of him, fish-man? Pirates?

What exactly happened here...

"Ah!!! There is a ghost!!!!"

Suddenly, the little boy screamed so frightened that he was almost out of his mind. Robin came back to his senses and saw that the little boy was so frightened that he jumped three feet high on the spot. His eyes and teeth were about to fly out, and he took the others with him. The frightened child ran away quickly.

Robin looked at "B.I.B".

"You're so ugly," the stand-in armor looked at the little brats walking away, "I don't recommend that I just donate my eyes." 』

……

"Coconut eggs! Stop running around!"

In the snow, a girl chases a mechanically modified dog.

"Nicole! Stop!"

Behind the girl and the dog, followed by a woman also wearing thick winter clothes, the fang roared, "You are wearing too few clothes, what should you do if you catch a cold? Go back and add more clothes!!!"

"A little bit." The girl named Nicole stuck out her tongue to her mother, "Ah, my tongue is so cold. It's so irritating." She quickly retracted her tongue.

A man passed by her.

The mother and son looked at the passers-by and said, "The town is over there..."

The mechanically modified dog sniffed and barked twice at the figure.

It was windy and snowy, Robin opened the door of a tavern, and a pair of eyes looked over.

She took off her cotton gloves, took a sip of white air, sat down at the bar, thought about it, and said, "A glass of gin and a glass of sherry."

The boss behind the bar said speechlessly: "How can we have the two kinds of wine you mentioned in a small bar like ours..."

"Then have an absinthe bar," said Robin.

"Ale, or the most common rum, that's all the shop has!" The boss behind the bar said angrily, "A girl can just say some weird wine names..."

A glass of poor ale was pushed in front of Robin, the liquid sloshing around...

Plop, water drops fell.

The hot tears burned a small hole in the snow, and then more and more hot tears rolled down. The silver-covered snow-capped mountains echoed with the sad cries of teenagers.

"Tomb of Shilluk"

There was an origami cherry blossom placed in front of the tombstone. Chopper stood in the wind and snow crying, holding in his arms the research notes left by Dr. Qu.

Kuleha stood nearby, holding a bottle and drinking silently.

"Continue his research," Kuleha said with tears in her eyes, "Didn't he say that as long as his will is still passed on, he is not really dead!"

"Yeah!!"

Chopper nodded heavily, sobbed and turned to leave with Kureha.

They didn’t go very far when they suddenly looked up and saw a blurry figure in the wind and snow gradually approaching them...

"That is?" Kuleha frowned and stopped the bottle.

A tall figure walked through the wind and snow. She was a woman wearing a thick cotton coat and a face covered with freckles.

"Do you still remember me?"

The woman took off her fluffy hood, revealing medium-length black hair that had reached past her ears. The freckle mask on her face turned into petals and fell off, revealing the appearance of Robin. She looked at the person standing with Kuleha in front of her. Half human and half deer, "Pikachu..."

The little deer stood there blankly.

"Oh, yes, you may not recognize this look..." Robin thought for a moment, stretched out her hand and wiped it on her face. The Xu Lun Mask, which she had not used for a long time, made her a little stunned for a moment.

However, before she could be stunned for a long time, Chopper let out a cry of extreme grievance, "Wow!!!!" and flew into her arms.

"..."

Robin stepped back, hugged the crying fawn, and gently stroked the fur on the back of its neck.

She raised her eyes and looked at Kuleha. The female doctor in her prime, who was over a hundred years old, took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "Girl, are you happy lately?"

"..." Robin's mouth twitched and he was speechless.

The black armor stood nearby, listening to Chopper's intermittent crying in Robin's arms. He was crying so hard that it seemed a little unbearable. It looked back and looked into the distance.

The wind and snow whistled in the valley...

The sky is dim,??yellow?......

……

……

……

〖Maybe several years have passed...〗

〖On this day, boom...〗

〖The towering door of justice standing on the sea slowly closed...〗

At the entrance of the large prison, Magellan looked at the new batch of prisoners coming off the warship. Like Hannibal and other subordinates, they all stared at a tall figure with long black hair and an unshaven beard among them.

Unlike other prisoners, his nonchalant look made people suspect that he was not in jail, but on vacation.

Looking around, his eyes met Magellan and others, and he actually nodded...

Do you really think you are here to inspect the work? !

Magellan looked at the Vice Admiral who came off the warship and growled: "What does this mean? He is not"

Didn’t this guy disappear from the world for several years without any news? Isn’t it suspected that he was actually killed by the Four Emperors’ aunt before? !

Why did he suddenly get off the navy ship with such a grimace? Does this mean... he was thrown into a big prison? !

"There's a ghost!!!"

Hannibal was the first to scream, raised his hands and stepped back, scaring the other guards into commotion.

"Is there a ghost?"

Lin Qi raised his hand to brush down his long black hair, turned back and looked around, and asked curiously, "Where is it?"

It was only then that everyone noticed that the keyhole of the handcuffs on his hand had been poured with gold and completely sealed.

Lin Qi grinned at the stunned jailers, revealing his big teeth that were now a little yellow, and said with a strange smile: "NIU~HO~, please give me more advice in the future"

This guy didn't appear to be exposed at all. With his big bare feet, he followed everyone into the Impel Down City called "Hell" as if nothing had happened.

The other prisoners were all pale and defeated as they stumbled into the prison...

"There is one more troublesome guy," Magellan's face was gloomy, with a wisp of poisonous smoke coming from the corner of his mouth, "This one seems to be particularly troublesome..."

"Ah!!!"

The screams of the prisoners could be faintly heard from the cracks in the closed prison door.

At the end of the passage, in the scalding boiling water, the prisoners were forced to strip off their clothes and throw them in for "disinfection." Many of them were burned until their bodies were red and blistered, and they screamed in agony.

It was Lynch's turn. He stepped into the boiling water pot naked and calmly, leaning on the edge of the pot very comfortably. His leg hairs were so comfortable that he couldn't help but moan...

The jailers looked at this guy as if he was in a hot spring and couldn't help but glance at them. They looked like they wanted to give him a back rub, but they were speechless.

What was even more speechless was that a female jailer couldn't help but move forward and almost went over to rub his back.

"Damn it," the female jailer turned around and pinched her red face, "Although he is a pirate and would not regret his death, he is really stylish and handsome, and..."

Soon, the prisoners were taken deeper into the prison elevator.

There are already many fewer people who have made it this far and have the chance to be sent to the prison floor below. Several of them have just been boiled alive.

The prisoners, who had been "disinfected" by boiling water and were clean, white and tender, were huddled in the corner shivering in the elevator, not daring to get close to Lynch.

The elevator descends slowly...

lv1, Red Lotus Hell... The whole floor is filled with steel-like needle-pricked woods, and every step you take in it feels like being punctured... The elevator pauses, and as soon as the door opens, several prisoners rush out impatiently. .

Hannibal held his knife and walked around extremely vigilantly, keeping his eyes on Lynch who was standing in the middle of the elevator. Step by step, he walked around to the elevator switch and took a picture with a "snap". The ladders slowly closed...

Continue downward...

lv2, beast hell...

lv3, hunger hell...

lv4, scorching hell...

There were fewer and fewer prisoners in the elevator. Lynch yawned in boredom, making the remaining prisoners break into cold sweats. This guy...from the beginning to now, he seems to be exuding something inhuman. What a sense of oppression!

Continue to descend until you reach the fifth level of the extremely cold hell. As soon as the door opened, a bone-chilling wind hit him, and Hannibal couldn't help but shiver.

He rubbed his hands and raised his feet to push the last prisoner except Lynch out.

However, Lin Qi still stood still. Stimulated by the cold wind of the extremely cold hell, he felt much less sleepy and more energetic.

"It seems that you know very well which level of 'hell' you will be thrown to!" Hannibal hugged his big knife behind Lynch, and the elevator started again and continued slowly Sinking down, "Although I don't know exactly when you were caught by the navy, but in this case, please be completely desperate. You have... can no longer see the sun outside, Lynch."

Boom...

The elevator came to a complete stop, and the prison-like door slowly opened, revealing the large prison on the lowest level outside. A cold breath seemed to blow in front of it, not the cold air of extreme cold hell, but a kind of cold air. It makes one's scalp numb, as if there are countless evil spirits lurking and peeping ahead... Hannibal solemnly said with a smile: "Welcome to the infinite hell!"

Bang...

The prison door behind Lynch was closed, and he was held down by heavy and huge chains. He could only sit against the wall of this relatively spacious cell, but the lighting was not very good.

And...

This is not a single room.

"Hehehehe..." On the wall next to Lin Qi, his hands were cuffed on one side and the other on the right. A woman wearing prison uniform like Lin Qi raised her head, revealing her face under her long red hair. She glanced at Lin Qi , couldn't help laughing and said, "I knew you would come in sooner or later."

Lin Qi rolled his eyes, "You're not dead yet, Auntie."

"You are still so tough..." Heina raised her eyebrows and looked at him, "Where is your female captain?"

Lynch asked back: "Where are your four female knights?"

"That's it," Heina leaned against the wall, looked up and sighed, "Then I understand..."

The prison became quiet again...

However, they are quiet here, but the other prisons outside are different. New friends have arrived, and they are crying and howling strangely, as if the zoo is on holiday.

Lin Qi acted as if he hadn't heard anything. He leaned against the wall, his vision seemed to pass through layers of solid prison barriers, across the sea and the red earth continent, through the ancient and solemn Pangu City, and came to the bright church. Among the flowers, he stared at the dark figure.

Im...

In the messy black hair, Lynch's eyes were firm.
