I’m Not Interested in Devil Fruits: Half five thousand words combined into one
[Chapter Header Serial・Big News 27・『……』]
[The Grand Line, Chambord Islands. Hawkeye slashed away dozens of pirates with one blow, and the black sword "Ye" slashed horizontally, picking up a falling newspaper in his hand, the paper was not damaged at all...]
---------------------------------
Ruscaina Island.
In the blink of an eye, autumn has arrived.
In the deep jungle, there are roars of beasts.
Whoosh, whoosh.
A small black shadow shuttled through the forest.
The appearance of Robin, who is almost eleven years old, has not changed much, except that compared to three years ago, his hair is shorter, his height is taller, his face is rosier, and his demeanor is calmer.
"Ho~!"
A beast with a pig head and a bear body rushed towards him, its claws were sharp.
As if there were eyes in the back of her head, Robin jumped lightly, and arms sprouted from the treetops in front of her, reaching out to catch her and swing her to the other side.
Boom... The monster with a pig's head and a bear's body cut the tree in half with one claw, stared at Robin viciously, beat its solid chest, and roared loudly.
………………
When spring comes, flowers bloom.
A demonic cloud rises from the ground on Luskaina Island.
Lin Qi wrapped up the little beauty Robin, flew across the windless sea, and went straight to the Nine Snakes Daughter Island.
Crossing the surrounding woods that they had not seen for a long time, Lynch and Robin flew to the top of the towering city wall.
Lin Qi looked into the city.
Robin said: "It seems that Hancock and the others haven't come back yet."
………………
Heavy snowflakes are falling, covering the woods on Luskaina Island with a layer of silver.
Robin jumped lightly and fell to a high place, and a ball of snow shook off the treetops.
The dark green pupils moved left and right, and the domineering color borrowed from the jet-black armor on his body instantly distinguished the number of beasts coming around him clearly.
This is not because her proficiency has improved.
Rather, Lynch trained his skills, copied them to "B.I.B", and was used by Robin at this moment.
One, two...seven in total?
From all directions, wild boars and grizzly bears attracted by the monster with the head of a pig and the body of a bear came galloping towards them, roaring in unison with terrifying force.
Robin jumped up high, crossed his arms, and said: "Seven-wheeled flower·armed——"
………………
On a starry sky and moonlit night, there are flowers nearby, birds chirping in the distance, and the sea on the horizon is sparkling.
Around the big white radish tree with the inscription "Destiny is the sleeping slave - Attack on Titan", Lynch and Robin lay side by side with their round bellies, chatting and calmly digesting the food...
………………
The sun was scorching hot, and a group of beasts turned into black shadows and rushed toward them.
Suddenly, a girl's arm grew on each of them. Each arm clenched a fist, and each fist was wrapped with armed domineering force, hitting their vital points at the same time without mercy.
The beasts screamed.
Robin thought, "Fourteen Flowers——"
The palms of the seven arms that grew on the seven-headed beasts bloomed and grew new arms again, like seven long snakes spitting out armed domineering force, biting down viciously.
………………
It is like spring all year round in Nine Snakes City, but it is not peaceful today.
It seems that some strange animals have broken into the city. Many women have found that some of their food, fruit drinks, fabrics, needlework, and daily utensils have been lost for no reason.
"Bolulu..."
The phone bug blends in with the environment, passing between its white legs as if nothing had happened, and slipped away calmly.
"You seem to have grown taller."
At the end of Nine Snakes City, Lin Qi, who jumped out of the Phone Bug Castle, sat down and patted the bundle of fabrics, "Are you uncomfortable wearing the clothes on your body?"
Robin tugged at the corner of her clothes. She wanted to say that Lynch's observation skills were really keen... but then she thought that during this period of time, his ghost had been following her closely... and according to her conclusion, Lynch's ghost is like a clone of him. Every time he takes it back, everything the ghost experiences will be fed back to Lynch himself... In other words...
Robin's face turned slightly red, and he turned aside. After a while, he turned back and said to Lynch: "I don't know how to make clothes with needle and thread..."
Lin Qi laughed and said: "Neither can I!"
Soon, the two people sitting by the city wall sighed together: Why hasn't Hancock come back yet...
………………
Bah! Snapped!
On Rusikaina Island, where the autumn leaves were falling, a black shadow stepped on the air and made a series of explosions, shooting straight into the sky.
Robin closed his eyes, feeling the airflow around his body, and spread the domineering power of the world to cover as much area of the island as possible.
Apes, wild wolves, giant tigers, wild boars...
Crocodile, hippopotamus...
One light spot outlines the corresponding outline, and in Robin's perception, it lights up like a candle.
………………
Nine Snakes City, inside the palace.
With Lady Snake Ji away, the maids' work is naturally much freer.
Some of them were even sent out to the training ground to help train the girl warriors.
Sanda Sonia, the second sister with long orange hair, and Marigrud, the third sister with long green hair, have been training extremely hard in the past few months.
Casmos was very pleased and thought to himself that Hancock might have irritated them by sneaking into the pirate ship without taking them with him...
“I don’t know why, but the fruit wine and fruits in the palace have been inexplicably less in the past two days...” The maid and female warrior on the side complained, “I even said that I didn’t eat it secretly, but the chef just didn’t believe it. ! This is too much..."
The other women laughed and said, "You usually like to eat secretly, so I blame you, right?"
"No way!"
At this moment, in the palace kitchen, the chef lady looked at the scene with question marks, as if she had been robbed again.
Melon and fruit peels are thrown all over the floor...
The wine pot and bottle were tilted this way and that, and the wine was falling drop by drop from the spout and the mouth of the bottle...
The chef took a step, slipped and almost fell. After all, she is also a female warrior. After steadying her center of gravity, she raised her feet and saw a crushed grape, a banana peel, and half a watermelon peel...
"Unfortunately, there is no elixir or anything..."
Hiding somewhere, Lin picked his teeth and expressed his regret.
Robin took a bite of the juicy peach and looked sideways.
………………
Boom...
The burly and fierce beast fell. Robin put down his armed and domineering feet and let out a sigh of relief.
She is not a warrior after all...
Forcibly controlling such power is still a bit nervous, and it is not as calm as it seems.
Looking at the sky, clouds were gathering and it seemed like it was going to snow again.
The climate of this island changes every week; on Nine Snake Island, it is another situation. It is like spring all year round and remains unchanged all year round. Traveling between the two islands, it is sometimes difficult to tell the passage of time.
It's almost time to go back.
Robin dragged the beast's corpse away by its legs.
Even without the need for a special connection between the ghost on his body and Lynch, Robin could still vaguely sense Lynch's position at the moment by relying only on the borrowed knowledge and knowledge... , seems to be particularly good at distinguishing different people, or different creatures.
Seeing and hearing Lynch in color perception, Robin intuitively felt that it was Lynch, not other creatures with similar strengths and weaknesses to Lynch.
"A wild boar, a wild bear, or a tiger can all be clearly distinguished by the use of knowledge, color and domineering..."
Robin dragged the carcasses of the beasts on the hillside casually and walked forward, thinking to himself, "Not only that, but you can even judge the general strength of those beasts... It is precisely because of what Lynch has seen. With characteristics like domineering color, I can avoid those overly powerful monsters on the island in advance..."
Deep in his heart, Robin seemed to remember that Lynch seemed to be very sensitive to "smell" a long time ago...
At that time, she used flowers and fruits to disguise herself. Although Lin Qi had not yet seen the domineering appearance, he could see through it directly. He joked that she smelled of flowers, but Robin had never smelled it on him...
Thinking about this, Robin came to the beach and saw Lynch shirtless, practicing boxing against the backdrop of the waves crashing on the shore.
Robin watched silently for a while.
Compared with when they first met three or four years ago, Lynch was already 1.8 meters tall at this time, with strong muscles and clear lines...
Without "B.I.B", Lin Qi purely relied on herself to recall the images of the woman named Lily in those fragmented memories, and unknowingly practiced this simple boxing technique over and over again.
"Is it called Ba Chongquan?"
Lin Qi came back to his senses, opened his eyes and looked back at the shore. Robin had cleaned the hunted beast, lit the fire, set up the rack and started roasting it skillfully.
Lin Qi walked over and tore off a large piece of meat, "Yeah! It's just a show. You have to go to the Kingdom of Flowers to learn the real eight punches."
Robin said: "You don't seem to value this boxing technique?"
Lin Qi said: "You can't say that! Although what you say is correct."
Robin: "..."
Lin Qi smiled and said: "We'll talk about boxing skills later. Now that you can practice your physical fitness and domineering level, let's continue practicing. If your strength is not good, you can go to the Kingdom of Flowers and want to learn other people's boxing skills. , wouldn’t it be embarrassing if they didn’t give it?”
Ordinary people would be able to eat even one leg of a beast that would kill them. Lynch and Robin each had half of it, and they finished it off very skillfully and tacitly.
The two of them ate until their bellies bulged, and they did not despise each other for being ugly and fat. While laughing and chatting, their figures recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Bah!
Lynch snapped his fingers.
The black armor on Robin's body peeled off like a phantom and fell into Lin Qi's body.
Lin Qi maintained his posture and shivered all over.
Robin felt a little sorry when he saw him like this. If she could be more crisp and clean when fighting in armor, Lynch would definitely not feel so uncomfortable when he takes back his ghost.
"Encourage..."
Lin Qi's body was filled with hot steam. He raised his trembling fist and slowly raised his thumb.
Robin: "..."
"How do you feel?" After Lin Qi came over, he moved his hands and feet to get used to it, and asked about Robin's condition.
Robin muttered: "Although I have become 'weaker', I still feel like myself, which is more natural. As for being domineering..."
She thought that this time would be similar to before. When Lynch's ghost left, those miraculous powers would disappear from her body.
But this time it seems different.
Robin felt Lynch's presence.
"..." She stared blankly at Lynch in front of her. This was a completely different feeling, even different from the previous situation when using the power of "B.I.B".
Is it domineering?
Lin Qi smiled slightly, and a mass of black energy surged out of his body, turning into a pitch-black armor, standing beside him.
Robin saw it. For the first time, he saw the black shadow with his own eyes.
"B.I.B" said: "Hello, Nicole Robin. 』
Robin smiled and winked: "Hello, BackinBlack..."
………………
"Ah!"
Robin exclaimed and hurriedly avoided the oncoming wolf.
When I almost fell, I was supported by an invisible hand, and the opponent quickly moved away.
"B.I.B" is like an emotionless black mecha, standing next to Robin and waiting.
A drooling wolf whined and growled in front of Robin, looking at him with eager eyes.
"..."
Robin looked at the wolf, turned to look at "B.I.B" who was watching, and then looked up at Lynch sitting on the treetop...
Lin Qi held two stones in his hand and said with a smile: "As for domineering, it can be mastered and mastered most quickly in real combat... Now, it's time for you to master your own domineering, Ni. Can.Robin classmate”
Who is your classmate...sometimes called sister, sometimes called sister...
Robin had no choice but to concentrate and use his knowledge to prepare to predict the next attack of the evil wolf in front of him.
"Roar~!!"
The wolf swooped down.
"Yeah!" Robin hid in a hurry.
………………
The night is long and the moon is very round.
Taking out the trauma herb found in Nine Snakes City, Lynch spread it evenly on the palm of his hand and applied it to the scratches on Robin's arm.
………………
Spring is warm and flowers are blooming on the trees.
The flowers sprouted many eyes, scattered throughout the forest.
Robin suddenly opened his eyes and jumped to the side, narrowly avoiding the beast's attack.
"Successful..."
Robin smiled, and the shadow of a huge boar enveloped her behind her.
"Roar..." The wild boar laughed low and ferociously, and Robin looked up, his eyes frightened.
But seeing two crisscrossing cold lights coming from one left and one right, the huge wild boar behind Robin had been chopped open in an ……
………………
It's night, and snowflakes are falling.
Beside the fire was the remains of a wild boar, and Lynch and Robin sat face to face.
"The sky and the earth are infinite, the Tao is impermanent, and the domineering and domineering power will soon appear..."
Lynch's palms were waving and twisting in front of Robin's speechless eyes... A moment later, the muscular version of Robin performed a rough eight-punch punch in the snow at night. Bian said depressedly: "No, hypnosis is still more of a life-returning skill. It can only hypnotize you to mobilize the potential of your body, but it cannot command your body to actively stimulate the power of domineering..."
Robin wanted to say, I understand, can you please stop? Very tired...
She clenched her fist and punched the snow.
Boom!
A small crater was made in the snow.
Lin Qi and "B.I.B" looked at the same time. The power just now... After Robin was exhausted, the muscles in her limbs subsided. She panted slightly, shook her hands, and couldn't help but smile with joy.
Although I am not a person who likes fighting, I am still very happy to be able to learn a brand new power.
"Lynch..."
Robin turned around and was startled when he saw Lin Qi's expression.
………………
"I never mentioned it to you before you didn't master domineering..."
Nine Snake Island. Robin followed Lynch, walking among the woods that were all too familiar to him, followed by the ghost-like black armor. This feeling is very novel. This is the first time Robin has experienced this kind of perspective. In fact, Lynch's ghost has been with them until today, but in most scenes in Robin's memory, there is no specific image of this black armor. Ever since I started learning the Haki of Knowledge, the whole world seems to have changed before my eyes.
Lin Qi came to the foot of the towering Nine Snakes City Wall. Across the huge city wall, he could sense the breath of the Amazon female warriors in the city.
"I'm worried that it was my own misjudgment. Now that you have mastered the Haki of knowledge and Haki and the Haki of weaponry..." Lin Qi stretched out his hand and gently pressed it on the rough stone surface of the city wall, his tone was strangely like Talking to himself, "Robin, do you think there really is a 'dominance of seeing, hearing, and color'?"
Robin thought he heard wrongly and blinked, "What?"
"I'm asking, do I, and you, really have such a thing as 'knowledge and color domineering' in our bodies?" Lin Qi turned around, opened his arms, held his left fist, and asked doubtfully, " Armed color Haki," holding his right fist, "Seeing and hearing Haki, are there two distinct things in our bodies? Or, in fact, we are all misled by the names of these two types of Haki, thinking that we are surrounded by them. The energy called domineering is partly attributed to the armament color and part to the seeing and hearing color... Is that so?"
Robin was still willing to discuss the issue. She frowned and thought, recalling her feelings about using two kinds of domineering force.
Her own Haki is still very weak and unskilled, but she has used two types of Haki from "B.I.B" for a long time...
"I believe that the essence of things is both simple and unified." Lynch clenched his fists, and the entangled domineering force quickly dyed his fists black, "Like you, I first got started with seeing and hearing... ...But when I thought back later, I realized that when I could only see and hear colors, I never mobilized the energy in my body even once. The so-called seeing and hearing colors is more of a skill than a kind of domineering power. ”
"Technique?" Robin blinked.
Lin Qi said: "Armed color and knowledge color are not domineering, but two techniques for using domineering."
He formed a sword and pressed his dark fingers on the city wall to create a hole.
"Armed color is a technique that truly activates the energy called domineering in the body and strengthens one's self."
Lin Qi felt the countless "light spots" in Nine Snakes City across the city wall.
"Seeing and hearing color... is the skill of perceiving external 'dominance' and perceiving external 'aura'... I used to be very strange. I obviously didn't release anything, but I could sense several things in an instant. The aura of an animal ten meters away, hundreds of meters away... If I release some kind of power called Haki, detect it, then take it back, and analyze it, it will be too late at all. But if the Haki power is only based on Haki, it will be too late. If it is a technique, a technique for observing breath fluctuations and collecting external information..."
This also seems to explain why so many people on Sky Island can use the knowledge color, but there is no entry-level weapon color.
Because in their concept, there is no such thing as domineering. Their perception ability is called the "Heart Network" by them. In their view, this is a magical ability to perceive external objects. After all, they themselves have not changed substantially...
Robin digested Lynch's remarks.
She mused: "According to your statement, if domineering color is also regarded as a domineering technique..."
"They are back."
Lin Qi suddenly pointed in the direction of the gate of Nine Snakes City.
The red ship dragged by two giant snakes, flying the flag of the Nine Snakes Pirates, finally returned to Daughter Island in the windless zone after more than half a year of sailing.
