I’m Not Interested in Devil Fruits: 595 She may be the last ranger in this flower country
[Chapter serial series・Heart Pirates 4・『MUTE! 』]
[The two hid and suddenly found that there was no sound when talking to each other. Rosinandi (Luo) was shocked. When did he use Mr. Corazon's Silence Fruit ability? ! Luo (Rosinandi) was speechless, but no matter how much he opened his mouth to instruct Luo to unmute, Luo could not hear any prompts from his moving, silent mouth... But fortunately Luo (Rosinandi) was right He was very adaptable to this kind of mute life. He quickly took out a piece of paper and wrote a line of words, and pointed at Lieutenant General He's warship. Shouldn't you remind me how to unmute? ! Rosinandi (Luo) was speechless and waved to him repeatedly, "Don't mess around..."
---------------------------------
This map of the Kingdom of Flowers is so simple that it is similar to the map of Dressrosa that White Bear Bebo drew for Law in the comics...
It didn't even require Lynch to use the photographic memory characteristic of "B.I.B". With Robin's memory, he took two more glances and silently remembered it in his heart.
She wondered: "You painted the same logo on the mountain and sea route in the southwest as the Eight Treasure Navy on the east side of the flower road..."
“Ah,” the village elder’s grandma raised her foot and wiped off the navy icon in the southwest corner that Robin mentioned, and said with shame, “As we get older, we can only memorize things by rote, so I drew them together conveniently... ”
Robin asked: "Is the Eight Treasure Navy there also?"
The old lady said: "No, those on the other side of Shanhaidao are the Erbao Navy."
Lin Qi took a look and realized, oh, it was the Erbao navy who was originally engaged to Lao Cai in the comics. But later, Lao Cai picked up a free baby 5 in Dressrosa and took her home as his wife, so the engagement was terminated.
"Erbao is a bit far away, let's go to Babao." Lin Qi said, mainly because he also wanted to try to see if his iron rod could knock out the head of Old Man Qingjiao.
Which one is stronger, my iron rod or the iron fists of Meng Qi’s grandsons?
Robin said thoughtfully: "In other words... there are at least eight naval forces in the Kingdom of Flowers? This is one of the best military forces among the countries that are members of the World Government..."
The old lady shook her head and said: "Not that many. Even three hundred years ago, when the Flower Kingdom's navy was at its strongest, there were only seven navy in total."
"Only seven?" Robin was surprised. After thinking for a while, he understood, "Since there are eight treasure navy, that means... there is no number one among the navy's numbers?"
Ayu said at this time: "Of course the 'big treasure' is in the palace. The army of the king is a forbidden army, not a navy army."
"Hahaha..." Lin Qi laughed happily, "I know how to play, but it makes sense. Dabao, hahaha..."
Looking at his smiling profile, the old lady was suddenly stunned.
"Anyway, thanks." Lynch put the golden iron rod on his shoulder, "Let's go, Captain."
Robin nodded, nodded to the old lady, then leaned over and touched Ayu's tender face, and said with a smile: "If you want to go to sea, you have to grow up, at least seventeen years old."
"..."
Ayu blinked and lowered his head, "It is impossible for me to go to sea..."
……
Kujo Seulun and Giovanna Giorno walked further towards the location of the Hanamichi Eight Treasures Navy Army further north marked on the map.
Ayu found that the psychic grandma was still looking at the backs of the two people in a daze, and couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong with them?"
The psychic grandma shook her head and sighed, "When he smiled just now, the profile of his face reminded me of a person from before... Thirty years have passed, and there has been no news from her, and I don’t know what happened to her. ”
"Thirty years..." Ayu calculated carefully and said in surprise, "Is this the 'half-descendant' of the Flower Burial Valley you mentioned, grandma?"
The psychic grandma sighed: "Yes."
Ayu asked strangely: "Why can it only be counted as half?"
"Because she never really joined Flower Burial Valley..."
The psychic grandma took Ayu back to the direction of Ouzhu Village, recalling the past as she walked, "That was forty-three years ago... When I picked her up on the roadside, she was just a wanderer. The little beggar wears clothes sewn from rags she picked up, and her waist is tied with a straw rope she braided. What is rare is that she has never been downcast, and she always has a small flower she picked herself in her hair... …”
At that time, the little beggar always liked to listen to the legends about Princess Lily. She loves those stories...
["Hehe, Princess Lily is so handsome..."]
[In my memory, the thin girl punched her waist and chest, "I have decided what my name will be, it will be Lily. Hehe..."]
[The psychic aunt who is not yet old said angrily: "You are so beautiful! How dare you pick up a little beggar with the same name as the princess?"]
["Just a little bit!" The thin girl stuck out her tongue, without being angry or caring at all, and said with a smile, "I'm not a little beggar, I'm a little knight-errant!"]
["You are right to say you are thick-skinned." The psychic aunt filled a bowl of paste with a broken bowl, "You are begging for food everywhere, and you are a ranger. How can there be any rangers in this flower country now." 】
["It's because I don't have it that I want to be one!" The skinny girl was very proud, holding up the broken bowl and drinking the paste happily, "Young Knight Lily, hee hee hee..."]
"What then?"
Ayu was fascinated by what she heard and couldn't help but ask, "Has she become a ranger?"
"Aren't you asking why she can only be considered a 'half-descendant'?" the psychic grandma joked with a smile.
Ayu pursed her lips and stared directly at the old woman.
The psychic grandma continued: "I only raised her for less than a year, and she has learned all my skills...
“For such a great person, if he wants to be a knight-errant, is there any reason why he can’t?
“She has traveled all over the five realms of the Flower Kingdom at a young age. Where is her heroic and righteous deeds not left behind?
"It's just that more than thirty years have passed, and now, a few still remember that there once was such a heroic girl and a flower-like knight..."
Ayu opened her mouth slightly after hearing this, fascinated, and couldn't help but ask: "Since she left after less than a year, how come she became half of the descendant of Flower Burial Valley? Grandma, you said that in the end of Flower Burial Valley A successor should be Xianglian..."
"Xianglian..."
The psychic grandma murmured, and after she came to her senses, she sighed, "She decided to help because she was sworn in with Xianglian and heard about the Bamboo Alliance..."
["So there is such a thing?"]
[Flower Burial Valley, under the moon, Flower Ranger Lily is tall and beautiful, carrying a sheathed sword on her shoulder, smiling casually, "Why didn't you tell me earlier, count me in."]
["Lily, these are none of your business!" Xianglian raised his sword and refused, "This is very dangerous..."]
["Why do you care about this?" Lily raised her finger to hold the tip of the sword that reflected Yueshuang, looked directly into the other person's eyes and smiled, "Aren't we sisters?"]
"Later she left the Kingdom of Flowers, and there was no trace of Xianglian. I thought that the three-hundred-year-old Bamboo Alliance also disappeared..."
The psychic grandma sighed, "...No more, no more, it's all in the past. Grandma now just hopes that you can live well."
Ayu was silent, lowered her head and followed the psychic grandma back to Houzhu Village.
When the villagers saw that they had returned safely, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Ayu turned around and looked to the north, the two people from the sea...
What neither she nor the psychic grandma noticed was that as they walked back, an ear would always appear on the roadside near them from time to time, hiding in the blind spot of their sight.
The ears fluttered into petals...
……
On the way north, Robin frowned slightly and looked thoughtful.
She was about to talk to Lin Qi, and Lin Qi said: "It seems to be almost there."
Robin looked up and saw a town ahead with much better conditions than Huzhu Village.
Lin Qi walked on the street, looked around at the pedestrians, shook his head and said: "I thought everyone in the Flower Country was over two meters tall..."
After looking around for a few times, I didn't see anyone taller than 1.8 meters, and even less than 1.7 meters tall.
"Although the mental outlook of the villagers in Uzhu Village is much better," Robin also observed the urban residents on the street, "but the average level seems to be..."
At this moment, a loud roar suddenly came from a shop on the street:
"Catch the thief!!!"
Robin followed the sound and saw a short figure staggering out of the hotel... Unfortunately, the thief was obviously in a panic and didn't notice when he was running with his head buried in his things. Across the street ahead, there was a group of people who seemed to be patrolling. A large flag was erected in the crowd. There was a big bold character "八???" on the flag. They were obviously members of the Babao Navy.
