I’m Not Interested in Devil Fruits: 668 In the hazy sky, cherry blossoms bloom. (6,000 words)
Mihawk had no intention of stopping at this winter island...
His planned next stop is Twin Capes. He heard from the red-haired man that there was an old ship's doctor from the Roger Pirates there.
Mihawk always sleeps on the seat of the boat during this trip. His cervical spine seems a little sore, so he wants to ask One Piece's old ship doctor to give him a squeeze to loosen his muscles and bones.
However, when I was feeling sleepy, I actually found two old friends who I hadn’t seen for a long time on the shore of the winter island...
"You have disappeared for almost ten years..."
The coffin-board boat is parked on the shore, with a candle lit at each corner of the boat. It has an underworld style to various degrees, but it is quite suitable for Mihawk's cold and elegant temperament like a vampire aristocrat.
Mihawk landed gracefully on the shore, walked to Robin and "B.I.B", and took a look at the scenery of the Snowy Kingdom from a distance, "I didn't expect to live in seclusion on such a winter island."
No one responded for a long time...
Mihawk glanced at Robin strangely.
“…” Robin also looked at him.
Mihawk: "..." Why does it feel a little weird?
『B.I.B』 said: 『We didn’t expect that you were riding in this kind of small boat all the way? The efficiency is a bit low...』
"Is it low?" Mihawk smiled slightly, pulled out the black knife Ye, and casually swung it horizontally in the direction of the sea behind him. Astonishing power poured out, booming, and suddenly raised tens of meters high on the sea. Huge waves... Boom, boom, waves undulated layer by layer, lapping at the coast, causing the small coffin plank boat that Hawkeye parked on the shore to jolt a bit. He put the black knife back on his back, folded his arms in a smart manner and said: "One knife like this is enough to push back and sail a long way..."
"It's really like rowing a boat with a knife..." The black armor suddenly said to himself.
Mihawk: “…”
I am just showing off the power and efficiency of my casual chops. Why do you think I am rowing a boat with a knife?
Can this also be described with an understatement of the word "stroke"?
The world's greatest swordsman still had a very stable demeanor. Mihawk smiled lightly and looked at the still undulating sea in the distance, "I heard Shanks talk about a man he met in the East China Sea a long time ago. Interesting boy... Counting the time, if that Monkey D. Luffy is what Shanks said, it's almost time to go to sea."
"B.I.B" is speechless, "The world's greatest swordsman has to go all the way and climb Upside Down Mountain or the Red Earth Continent just to meet a fledgling pirate?" 』
Mihawk said calmly: "I'm very free anyway..."
That's true. "B.I.B" agrees.
The Lone Ranger Mihawk is truly capable of feeding one person and the whole family is not hungry, especially as he is a Shichibukai with legal plundering qualifications...his reputation and strength have long made him one of the top masters in the world. Under such conditions, it would be difficult for him to keep busy.
After chatting for a while, Mihawk took one last look at "B.I.B" and Robin, "Standing here for so long, I don't feel the presence of other masters on this island..."
‘Because there really isn’t. "B.I.B" said calmly.
“Where is your true body, Lynch?” Eagle-like eyes stared at the narrow, bright eyes on the pitch-black visor.
‘This is a long story, do you want to listen? 』
"That's it..." Mihawk waved his hand, "Forget it's too long. Let's go first!"
The world's greatest swordsman jumped lightly and landed on the coffin-board boat on the sea below. He shook his black windbreaker and sat on the only big chair with his legs crossed, carrying the huge cross on his back. The black knife drifted far away on the sea...
One person and one armor standing on the shore.
『B.I.B』 lowered his head and asked, 『Why haven’t you spoken? 』
Robin was slightly startled, shook her head and said: "At first, I felt a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say..." After a pause, she continued, "Later, I heard him talk about Tulip's son, and I was a little lost for a moment. , before he had time to say anything, he left..."
Then this does seem a bit embarrassing. "B.I.B" folded his arms and nodded silently.
Standing on the shore, Robin looked at the gray sky and sea, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a long time, she turned around and said, "Go back."
The phantom-like pitch black armor walked beside her, stepping into the wind and snow of the entire island.
【"Hey! Deer!"】
【When this island was still called Drum Island, Lynch shouted to the snow monster passing by in the snow forest and waved, "Come here."]
[Beside him, Robin tilted his head, looking at the confused blue-nosed snow monster with a little doubt and curiosity...]
…
【"Wow!! Don't eat me!!!! Eh? I...can talk again?"]
【The reindeer was scared to death, but Lynch asked with a smile: "How do you feel after losing the Renren Fruit?"]
【In the snow, Lynch and Robin walked in front, and the blue-nosed snow monster followed behind and murmured to himself: "It was like... having an endless nightmare..."]
“Ah!”
Chopper exclaimed, raised his head and sat up straight. The hair on one cheek was wet with saliva, and a hoof print was left on it.
“Are you awake?”
Chopper sat at the experimental table, sniffing his blue nose. It smelled so good. Looking back, there was a table of food on the dining table in front of Robin and Master Kuleha. Robin said to it: "It's just right. Come and eat together when you wake up."
“Oh.” The reindeer jumped off the chair, squeaking under its feet, and jumped to the dining table to eat with Robin and Master.
Beside the wall, "B.I.B" who turned his palm over to observe put down his hand and looked at Chopper's experimental table. Pink dust was rising from the flask, and beside it, there were already three bulging cloth bags, which were tied tightly. mouth.
Has the research left by the quack doctor Siruluk produced results? "B.I.B" thought.
…
【Looking at the deer licking the plate excitedly, Robin said: "When it says it is a monster, it doesn't mean what it looks like after eating Renren's fruit..."]
【Lynch held his chin up and said, "It refers to the characteristic of my blue nose! The shadow of my childhood is really tragic..."]
While eating, Robin noticed that Chopper was always looking at him, and couldn't help but touch his face strangely, "What's wrong? Is there something dirty on my face?"
Chopa hesitated to speak, shook his head repeatedly, finished his meal in a hurry, jumped off the dining table, "I will continue the experiment!"
Jumping back to the chair in front of the experimental table, the little reindeer lifted its feet off the ground, carefully prepared the materials with its two little hooves, and poured them into the flask in proportion... with an extremely serious expression.
In the Phone Bug Castle, Robin did not go to the bedroom, but sat in the bright and spacious living room.
There are many old sundries on the coffee table.
Ten years ago in Ten Thousand Kingdoms, Xiaolu was stunned by Big Mom's overbearing color and bounced many things in the castle. Later, those things were temporarily stored behind a corresponding mirror in the Mirror World by Lynch.
Later, "B.I.B" randomly implanted the Mirror Fruit into a passing tiger, turning it into a Mirror Fruit capable user. The ferocious tiger was as obedient as a cat in front of the domineering color of the pitch-black armor, letting invisible hands grab its tail and drag it into a mirror... "B.I.B" used the tiger's tail as a medium to enter the mirror. World, moved all the things out again, and put them back into Little Green's Phone Bug Castle for safekeeping.
The main thing in front of Robin is the pile of souvenirs, couple's shirts and the like that she bought when she and Lynch sailed together on holiday islands, the Shampoo Islands, etc.
Very old.
It has been a long time since Robin took it out and looked at it carefully like this for the first time.
She reached out and touched the yellowed clothes and souvenirs gently, remembering a conversation she had with "B.I.B" a year ago.
…
【"You don't actually have to follow me like this..." Robin hugged his knees, sat on the shore, and said to himself in a daze, "Are you afraid that I will misunderstand, are you supervising me?"]
【‘If you really misunderstood, you wouldn’t say it so easily. "The jet-black armor stood beside him with his arms folded, his narrow eyes shimmering, "But I do have something to be afraid of, but that's on the other side..."]
【"If you want to cooperate with your body practice and prepare to accumulate a lot of achievements, don't always look at me, you should be more attentive..." Robin buried his head in his knees and said to himself, suddenly reacted and raised his head He asked in confusion, "What aspect?"]
【『...』The jet-black armor said lightly, “I have never been separated from my true body for such a long time. Although we essentially share a system, when separated, they are indeed two CPUs operating independently. 』】
"What I'm afraid of is... I will gradually forget, or gradually become disidentified, that I am Lynch. 』】
【‘Even if this worst development is just unfounded worries...but after so many years of experience and memories, they will all be poured into the heart of the ontology, and if these pictures are full of massive and unfamiliar things...the ontology will What would happen if you were hit like that? 』】
[Robin was even more stunned for a moment, and the narrow eyes of the dark mask looked towards her. 】
【‘So, Sister Robin, I only have you now... Only by looking at you like this can I use it as the "anchor" for my self-awareness. 』】
【‘I can always remember that I am still me, still Lynch. 』】
[Robin smiled for the first time in a long time. Although this smile is also very weak. She said to herself: "Don't let Hancock know this..."]
…
Just as he was lost in thought, on the coffee table with a pile of debris in front of Robin, white fluid emerged and condensed into a small green shape.
Dong dong dong, it turned out that someone was knocking on the door of the Telephone Bug Castle outside.
Robin opened the castle door and looked outside, and saw Kuleha's "huge" old face.
The latter saw her showing up, picked up the bottle and took a sip. He pointed at the dim night and faint snow outside the window behind him, and said with a smile: "There are some good things, do you want to go and see them together?"
Robin was confused and jumped out of the Telephone Bug Castle.
Following Kuleha out of the tree house, the white snow looked particularly bright under the night and the cold moonlight.
Not far away, Chopper's figure running away could be vaguely seen.
"It's so late, where is he going?" Robin asked curiously.
Kureha blew at the bottle and said with a smile: "Would you know if you just follow me and take a look?"
“…”
Robin and Kuleha walked side by side in the snow at night, following the reindeer galloping away in the distance.
She looked back at the night sky above the tree house.
You can feel what you see, hear, and see. The dark armor is sitting cross-legged in the air as usual, silently practicing the return of life.
The long and narrow eyes on the visor shimmered. If he felt something, he raised his eyes and looked into the distance. The reindeer quickly climbed to the mountainside and jumped up on the mountain cable without stopping.
Looking from a distance, under the light of the moonlight, it looks like the silhouette of a reindeer running through the air towards the palace on the top of the mountain...
【"I can't always 'feed' or 'deer' to call you, right?"]
【Lynch said jokingly, "There are too many things that can be called 'feed' and 'deer'..."]
【Robin smiled and explained for the confused deer: "He said that you should be given a name."]
…
There is a full moon in the night sky, and the black silhouette of the reindeer is flying on the cable, diagonally upward as if it is flying through the air.
Click, click, click. Chopper, who had transformed into a reindeer form, was holding a wooden pole in his mouth and carrying the medical bag he usually used on his back. His four hooves kept flying on the cable, his eyes fixed on the height ahead. The palace castle on the top of the mountain.
…
【"Just call it Pikachu! How about it?"】
【Lin Qi clapped his hands and smiled with self-satisfaction, "Pikachu Chopper, does that sound good?"]
【"Pikachu...Chopper...Pikachu, Chopper...hehehe..."]
[The little guy raised his head, his big eyes fluttered and sparkled, and he covered his mouth and kept giggling. 】
…
Huchi, Huchi...
The reindeer panted non-stop and arrived in front of the palace and castle. The wind and snow whizzed by. It let go of the wooden pole it was clenching in its mouth and swayed, becoming two meters tall. burly young man with short brown hair.
He touched his ears, which were no different from humans, took a deep breath, and roared at the quiet palace and castle in the night:
"Is anyone there?!!! I'm Chopper!!!!!!!!!!!!"
…
【Chopper took a closer look and saw that there seemed to be a small hole in the air, and there were two very small people sitting on the edge of the small hole...】
【Lynch greeted: "Hi, Pikachu."]
【"Eh?!" Chopper was so frightened that he jumped up on his chair again, his antlers and eyes almost flying out. 】
【Lynch was laughing at the entrance of the castle, Robin grabbed his face, "Lynch, don't scare it like this."]
…
The palace and castle were suddenly brightly lit, and many soldiers rushed out in a hurry, startled by the loud sound.
King Dalton also hurried out in his pajamas. Niu panted and looked at the burly young man standing in the open space outside the castle in confusion, "Doctor Chopper, it's so late, what's the matter?"
"Huchi, Huchi..."
Chopper took a deep breath, swayed, and returned to his petite and cute half-human, half-deer form. With tears in his eyes, he put down the medical bag he was carrying.
[In the snow, Lynch held up a huge snowball about the same size as others and walked towards the little reindeer. Chopper was so frightened that he rolled and hid behind Robin...]
【In the bathroom, Lynch and Chopper were soaking in the bathtub, with a towel hanging around their necks. Robin opened the door and brought two glasses of hot milk to them with a smile. Lynch and Chopper each took a cup and took a sip, showing satisfied expressions uniformly...]
"I just want to ask everyone..."
The little reindeer shook the medical bag, and a dozen tightly tied cloth bags fell out of it, "Please do me a favor..."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Do me a favor, you should have said it earlier!
It’s quite scary to be surprised like this in the middle of the night...
Dalton smiled and said: "It is my duty! Dr. Qiaoba has been treating patients and saving people for so many years, but he has always charged the minimum for medical expenses... Everyone has actually wanted to repay you for a long time."
"That's right!" The palace soldiers raised their hands and responded enthusiastically with laughter, "As long as it is Dr. Chopper's request, there is really no way to refuse it! Haha..."
“Brothers, get to work!”
“Oh!!”
Happily, a group of palace soldiers rolled out several mobile turrets from the castle in the night.
Under Chopper's command, they threw the dozen or so bags brought by Chopper into the barrel one by one...
"Doctor Chopper, is this okay?"
Soldiers stood behind the mobile turret, pointing the barrels at the night sky.
“Well, that’s good.”
Chopper picked up the wooden pole he had picked up along the way from the snow and walked towards the edge of the cliff.
Looking at the back of the little reindeer that became tall and burly again, Dalton smiled and sighed softly.
“What exactly do you want to see?”
Robin followed Kuleha as they walked among the snow-capped mountains at night. He was a little worried and asked, "Will Chopper be okay if he comes out so late?"
“Hee...”
Kuleha suddenly stopped, raised the bottle and pointed it at the sky in front of her.
Robin raised his head and naturally knew that it was the peak where the palace and castle of the Medical Snow Kingdom and the former Ciggu Kingdom were located.
Suddenly, on the edge of the cliff at the top of the peak, she saw a black flag waving, which looked a little blurry in the night. The skull pattern on the black flag was also painted crookedly and with childish brushwork...
The rough hand-painted pirate flag trembles in the night.
It's Chopper...
Robin saw a burly human figure waving the pirate flag vigorously on the edge of the cliff.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
A large row of firelights suddenly lit up behind Chopper, who was waving the pirate flag, followed by a burst of intensive cannon fire. The firelights soared into the sky accompanied by screams, rushing into the high night. , exploded one after another.
…
[The little reindeer raised his face and asked weakly: "Are you leaving?"]
【"Don't try to pretend to be pitiful and cute and just learn medical skills from the old woman..." Lynch pressed Chopper's head and continued, "If we find that your skills are not up to standard when we come again in the future, we will not let you You get on our ship.”]
[Under the rough hands, the deer buried his head, biting his lips, big hot tears falling down, and finally nodded heavily. 】
【"Yeah!"】
…
"This is..."
The ball of light in the night sky reflected on Robin's face as she looked up. Her eyes slowly widened, as if she had seen some miraculous and magnificent scenery, which was very shocking.
"Hehe, it's a good thing," Kuleha put her hands on her hips, holding the wine bottle, pushing up her glasses, looking up and smiling, "I didn't lie to you, did I?"
“Well...”
Robin looked up blankly, and was a little speechless in the great shock.
In the night sky, groups of pink fireworks exploded, and the pink dust adhered to the snowflakes, instantly forming a dreamy pink snowscape that filled the sky like a fairy tale...
"Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh..."
That burly figure desperately waving the pirate flag let out a strange, unique, yet childish cry, which resounded through mountain tops, cliffs, under the pink snow scenery blooming like huge cherry blossom trees, among the snowy mountains...
“Robin!!!”
The burly figure crying loudly shouted to the people at the foot of the mountain in a boyish voice, "Didn't we agree? Wait for me..."
“…”
Robin looked up at the pink "sakura trees" in the night sky that touched his soul.
…
【Chopper blinked and asked: "Giorno, what is a pirate?"]
…
"When I become..." Chopper waved the pirate flag vigorously and choked, "When I become a qualified doctor..."
…
【"This..." Lin Qi touched his chin, "I always find it difficult to answer."]
…
Looking at the child who was desperately waving the crooked pirate flag under the "Sakura Tree", crying loudly and venting his grievances, Robin's eyes also filled with tears.
…
【"This is the pirate flag." Lynch pointed at the JOJO skull pattern and said with a smile, "The person who will be summoned by this thing is a pirate!"]
【"Oh..." Chopper stared at the flag, his big eyes shining, "I see..."]
【Robin chuckled: "Don't you admit that you are a pirate?"]
【Lin Qi turned his head and pinched her face casually, "Don't ruin the atmosphere at this time..."]
…
"Take me with you..."
Chopper cried unnaturally, with tears streaming down his face. His hand waving the pirate flag was almost trembling, and his cry echoed in the valley, "Didn't we agree to be pirate partners together? ! ! ”
"Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh..."
Listening to the hoarse cries in his ears, Robin's tears finally fell down his cheeks, and his lips kept trembling slightly.
Kuleha reached out her hand and patted her gently, smoothing her trembling back without saying anything.
"Kureha..."
"It's okay, it's okay..." With tears in her eyes, Kuleha took Robin into her arms and gently touched her long hair, "Poor child..."
…
“Although I don’t know what happened, I’m so touched...”
In front of the castle, looking up at the miraculous and magnificent pink snow, the palace soldiers couldn't help but shed tears and looked at each other.
Dalton wiped the corners of his eyes and sniffed, "Yeah."
In the distant night sky, a group of huge pink "sakura trees" almost lit up half of the night sky...
In the distance, high in the sky above the tree house, the wind and snow were blowing.
Suddenly, in the seemingly empty air, a steel-armored palm covered with blue flame patterns condensed out of thin air.
Peng!
"B.I.B" shook its left hand hard, as if it had truly broken through some kind of shackles or barriers. Its left hand suddenly condensed from the original ghost-like state into reality, as if it were a real hand. War Armor Palm...
A pair of narrow eyes raised with a shimmering light, "B.I.B" waved his left hand, and the palm covered with blue flame patterns in an instant, from virtual to solid, from real to virtual more than ten times, constantly changing ……
It quietly appreciates the "miracle scene" left by Shiluluk.
