Chapter 676: The Place of Beginning and End
[Chapter Header Series Kemi's Great Adventure 23 "It's a passage! 』]
[After a long time, this strange world shook for a while, and then calmed down. Kemi and Papagu fell on the blue sky and white clouds... no, this is the wall! Is the blue sky and white clouds painted? ! Kemi was so frightened that his teeth and tongue almost flew out, and he and Pappagu fled in panic, and found a man-made passage exit at the end of the world...]——
【"I'm sorry, Jinbe. I just... can't help it!"】
【Lynch punched the murloc named Aaron flying out into the sea, turned around and smiled at Jinping. 】
...
【"You'd better give an explanation... Otherwise, our Sun Pirates will never let you go."】
【"There is nothing to explain, I just want to kill him."】
...
【"He didn't die? What a disappointment!"】
【"It's shameful not to kill him with one punch. Don't worry, this kind of fun is not worthy of me killing him a second time."】
...
【"Can't you understand human words? I just want to kill Aaron! Who discriminated against you murlocs?!"]
...
【"Why on earth did you insist on attacking that murloc?"】
【Robin remembered that he had asked his stand-in like this, and the latter replied: "Actually, it was the same reason as when he attacked Caesar..."】
...
...
A palm covered with flame patterns pressed on Robin's shoulder, waking her up from the memories of the past and regaining consciousness.
"What's the matter Robin? You just said that Aaron is a devil fruit capable user, and then?"
Robin looked at himself with burning eyes in front of him, everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates waiting for an answer, Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Sanji, and Chopper...
She said: "It means literally. He is an ability user in the form of the Fruit of Human Beings orangutan."
At the beginning, she didn't actually see the process of Aaron being stuffed with the devil fruit ability by "B.I.B", but... the human fruit disappeared later, and Robin heard Lynch mention its whereabouts because of this, but just now I suddenly remembered it.
"He also has Human Fruit?" Chopper asked curiously.
"Orangutan..." Usopp and Luffy had a bubble above their heads, imagining a strange murloc covered in red hair.
Holding his elbow with a cigarette in his hand, Sanji murmured to himself, "The murloc... ate a devil fruit... what would happen if it fell into the sea? I'm so curious..."
"Anyway, I won't drown, that's for sure." Zoro carried the only remaining hand and said with a smile, "But it will definitely be the same as Luffy, who will not be able to perform at all when he falls into the water." strength."
"It's a murloc, but it's a landlubber...haha, it's so interesting!" Luffy laughed loudly, he really thought it was fun.
Only Nami was shocked, and she still hadn't come to her senses, "Aaron...he is an extreme racist and believes in murloc supremacy. How could such a person eat the human fruit? And what kind of orangutan ..."
Indeed...
Luffy, Zoro, Usopp, and Sanji all held their chins in thought, and then looked at Robin who was drinking coffee calmly.
Robin stirred the coffee with a small spoon, "In short, you should have no problem dealing with Aaron, right?"
"Hey, no!" Lu Fei was gearing up.
Zoro pushed the knife and smiled evilly, "I haven't cut a murloc yet..." Usopp complained, "You're laughing too badly!"
Nami was very moved, "Luo—" turned to see Robin picking up the coffee cup and walking out.
...
"Wow! What a big manatee—no, a sea beast?"
There was a lot of noise outside, Robin squeezed the space between his eyebrows, pressed the book, and looked back out the window. On the deck, Usopp, Zoro, and Sanji were fishing together, and they caught a huge sea beast in the shape of a cow. The abdomen is covered with fish scales.
The cow sea beast has a nose ring between its nostrils and is clearly a domestic sea beast.
The cow sea beast was angry at first, Zoro smiled and drew his sword, Sanji raised his foot, and Usopp hid behind the two of them with a fishing rod in his arms. step forward.
Ok? "B.I.B" came out of the cabin, and like Robin looking back from the side window, they were all looking at Luffy who was walking towards the violent cow sea beast.
An invisible domineering look emanated from Lu Fei's body, and it accurately deterred the sea beast at a single point. The irritable guy immediately shut up, covered in cold sweat, and obediently froze, allowing Lu Fei to press his hand on it. face.
"This is not the overlord color that just awakened," the mask appeared in the air beside Luffy, "Luffy, when did you master it?" 』
Its words made Zoro Sanji and the others very curious, and they suddenly remembered the shocking scene of the inexplicable annihilation of the Creek Pirates. Could it be... what did Luffy really do at that time?
Luffy stuck out his tongue and said, "I couldn't hold back all of a sudden, I accidentally used it. Ace warned me that if he said that he relied too much on domineering color, it might make my fists weak!" At the same time, he turned his head and answered "Hei Zi", "I forgot too. My mother taught us for a while before, and then I mastered the domineering color without knowing it! However, Ace first mastered the knowledge color..." The straw hat boy rubbed his chin and said to himself , said with emotion, "I don't know what happened to Sabo..."
Why are you talking to yourself all of a sudden! Sauron, Sanji, and Usopp were confused after hearing a series of unfamiliar words, but Luffy still lamented on his own, making people speechless.
"B.I.B" is clear, and I remembered that in the Straw Hat Pirates, Luffy is good at overlord color, Zoro is good at armed color, and Sanji is good at knowledge color...
Speaking of which, maybe it is similar among the three ASL brothers. Luffy is good at overlord color, Ace is good at knowledge color, so maybe Sabo is good at armed color?
It's really some kind of fate...
The black visor disappeared in the air, and flew back to its main body, staying beside Robin.
Led by Luffy's new pet cow, Moo Moo, the Mei Li arrived at the small island where Aaron's domain is located faster.
...
Robin kept the small bag at his waist, tied a single ponytail, and walked out of the cabin.
The Meili stopped, and on the deck, Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji were gearing up and couldn't wait.
Chopper was also eager to try, Nami's eyes were firm, Usopp looked left and right, originally wanted to have a tactical stomachache, but his eyes caught Robin's slightly dark and indifferent demeanor, and he said all at once All shrank back.
"B.I.B" glanced at the end of the line of sight, on the other side of the island, and faintly saw some people in sailor uniforms shuttling.
It swept away its knowledge and quickly found several auras that were far above ordinary people. Obviously it's Aaron's murlocs. That place is Aaron's field.
In comparison, the breath of those sea soldiers, in front of people like Aaron, was basically delivering food.
Robin said to Luffy, Nami and the others: "I have some information I want to collect, please come on."
"Oh, that's good." Luffy waved his hands and got off the boat.
"Leave it to us!" Sanji stepped on the side of the boat. If he didn't have those irrepressible eyes, he would be more chivalrous. "Miss Robin~~" said and jumped off.
"Hey, Sauron, wait for me!" Usopp hurriedly caught up with the green algae-headed swordsman who didn't talk much.
Nami and Chopper looked back at Robin.
Robin also encouraged them both: "Come on."
"Oh!" Chopper cheered up, jumped off the boat happily, and chased Luffy and the others ahead.
"..." Nami stepped back to the side of the boat, pressed the fence, and kept her eyes on Robin, who asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Nami shook her head, hesitantly said: "I always feel, Sister Robin, you..."
"They're calling you." Robin reminded that not far ahead, Luffy, Sanji, Usopp, and Chopper were waving at Nami, "Hey~~ Nami (Miss), hurry up~~ Aren't you going to save people~~"
"Go," said Robin, "I'm going too."
After Nami followed up with Luffy and the others and left, Robin also got off the boat and walked alone to Aaron's domain from another direction.
"Little girl Nami..." The black armor followed her with folded arms, "She's quite sharp." 』
Robin pushed aside the branches blocking the way, shook his head and said, "It's common for girls to be more careful and sensitive than boys, and to be more aware of other people's emotional changes."
"Right. ’ ‘B.I.B’ floated aside, ‘So what are you going to investigate? It is impossible to have a piece of historical text here...』
"Nami's adoptive mother is in the Navy. If you have brought other sailors here to find Nami, they will inevitably recognize me." Robin shook his head, "It's not necessary...but I do have something I want to understand."
"B.I.B" quickly followed her to the vicinity of Aaron's domain, "What? 』
"An arrogant pirate like this, no matter how corrupt the navy branch in the East China Sea is, it shouldn't have taken root for so many years, and it hasn't been dealt with..." Robin looked up at the Aaron Domain, which was as fancy as a playground in the Chambord Islands. Yuan Jing muttered to himself inexplicably, "There must be some reason for this..."
"What you said... seems to be true! "B.I.B" rubbed its head, at least as far as it knows, Smog is in Luoge Town in the East China Sea. Haven't you heard of Aaron and his gang dominating?
Even if Colonel White Hunter needs to sit in Rogge Town and cannot spare time, what about his subordinates?
The subordinates around White Hunter are naturally not the moths in the navy like Colonel Mouse. It's true that you can't get a single soldier out, so why don't you investigate the Murloc Pirates that have caused trouble in the East China Sea for seven or eight years?
This is still a pirate group with a fixed territory! Aaron's notoriety in the field is probably known to many people in Donghai.
The classmate who is anxious and righteous, can tolerate this kind of sand...
...
Aaron Domain, on the top of a building, in a room full of documents and reward posters all over the walls...
The petals surged up on the ground and condensed into Robin's body.
She rummaged here alone, newspapers, documents, correspondence, materials, reward orders, some new, some old... There are not many valuable ones, after all, it is a den of pirates, and I am afraid there are not many people who can read. Many people in the human villages controlled by the Murloc Pirates were forced to organize and collect for them...
Soon, Luffy's angry roar came from outside: "Stop talking!! Who cares whether it is a human or a murloc!! I just want to beat you up!!!!"
boom!
I don't know what hit it, and the building where Hua's avatar was located shook a few times.
With a rustle, the dust shook off the ceiling, and an old reward order slipped down among the many posters on the wall. The Hua clone picked it up and saw that it was flat.
The bounty is 76 million Baileys.
Jinbei's photo was drawn with a huge red cross in rough handwriting, obviously smeared out with emotion.
Robin followed the clues, rummaged through relevant old newspapers and other news, and slowly figured out the clues, and some things that happened after the Sun Pirates...
...
"More than nine years ago, the Sun Pirates were besieged by the navy. The captain, Fisher Tiger, was seriously injured and lost a lot of blood. In the end, he refused human medical assistance and blood donation, so that he died."
Outside Aaron's domain, Robin leaned against the wall, looked up at the slowly moving white clouds in the sky in the shadows, and slowly said the news in the old newspapers that her Hua clone's eyes saw at this moment, "This incident became a turning point for the Sun Pirates. Once Fisher Tiger died, the pirates fell apart. Many members were captured by the navy, and only Shi Ping fled with the stronger ones..."
"B.I.B" listened quietly with dimly lit eyes.
It's no accident that Tiger will die.
Tiger is so great that he can abandon his prejudices, treat Kerla as a human being equally, and send her home from a long distance—but such a person would rather die than accept human blood to save himself life.
It is conceivable that Tiger is rationally willing to fight for Princess Otohime's ideal of reconciliation with mankind and equality of all races in the world, but at the same time, emotionally and deep in his heart, he has always been unable to forgive Human beings cannot truly accept human beings.
Contradictory, but true.
Coupled with the potential danger that none of the murloc partners around him has the same blood type as him... Then as long as Tiger is still wandering around in the sea, fighting against the navy, against the world government, and against the hostility from the whole world, he will Basically mortal.
Moths to the flame. It is the best summary of Fisher Tiger's life.
Robin was still talking slowly: "...Later, Jinbe accepted the navy's invitation and became a member of the Shichibukai under the king. As a condition, the navy released the captured Aaron and other murlocs. Later, Taiyanghai The murlocs of the thief group broke up with each other, Aaron brought some murlocs to the East China Sea, and then, the tragedy happened on this small island..."
She sighed softly, "That was nearly ten years ago, and during that time... no wonder I didn't have the slightest impression of these news."
At that time, Lynch was arrested, the sea emperors were in conflict with each other, Robin and Hancock were also busy with other things, busy attacking the naval base, busy resisting the navy's demon-slaying order, and busy moving Nine Snakes Island...
As for the death of the captain of the Sun Pirates?
As for Jinbei becoming the king of Qiwuhai?
As for the whereabouts of a murloc Aaron?
At the time, these news could only be placed on the second page at most, and Robin was not in the mood to pay attention to the rest of the unimportant news at the time...
Now that everything is clear, Robin has some guesses about the fact that the Aaron Pirates have been able to do evil so arrogantly in the East China Sea for seven or eight years.
"Do you know what Jinbei's nickname is?" Robin leaned against the wall and asked himself, "'Sea Man'."
She shook her head, "The Sun Pirates back then were famous for their unity among murlocs, no one dared to provoke any of their members... and Jinping, who was honored as 'Sea Xia', Sincerely benevolent and righteous."
"B.I.B" gradually understood, "You mean...even if Aaron and the others broke with the original Sun Pirates, even if they parted ways with Jinbei in name, even if Aaron and the others refused to admit it, But in fact, people still regard the Aaron Pirates as the "protection range" of the "Sea Xia" of the Seven Martial Seas under the king? 』
Think about it too...
You murlocs once huddled together to keep warm, unanimously outside, and intimate, who knows if your current breakup is the same as the young couple, fighting at the head of the bed and making love at the end of the bed?
If the pirates provoke Aaron and the others, if they provoke the king Shichibu Kai Jinpei, wouldn't this be a catastrophe?
If the marines move Aaron and the others rashly, won't they be quite passive if they arouse the dissatisfaction of His Majesty Shichibukai?
You said that Aaron and the others are no longer in the same group as Jinbe, but the logo of the Sun Pirates on you people is still exactly the same. You said that you really broke...Who would believe it!
"A muddled account. "B.I.B" shook his head and said so.
"Yeah..." Robin sighed for a long time, "I just don't know what Jinbe thinks. Does he know what Aaron and the others are doing in the East China Sea..."
Boom!
The ground trembled faintly.
"B.I.B" and Robin looked back and knew... the battle in Aaron's domain was probably over.
~~~~~~~~~~
"Hahahaha, Robin, you didn't see how ugly that Aaron's face became after we told him that he ate the Human Fruit!"
Robin was already reading on the boat, and heard that among the victorious crowd, Usopp vividly performed Aaron's facial expressions, his eyes were bloodshot, his lips trembled, his face was ashen, "'You, these, inferior, human beings, actually Dare, laugh at me?!' Hahahaha..."
Bang, Nami punched him, "Don't imitate everything, it's too ugly!"
Sauron shook his head and said, "I think he was most angry when he had to use that orangutan's devil fruit power to fight Luffy..."
"I told you not to fight indiscriminately!" Chopper angrily changed Sauron's bandage again, "The wound burst open again..."
"Yeah," Sanji breathed out, "he is a murloc supremacist, and in the end he had to rely on the power of 'humans', and turned into a 'lower' appearance that was even worse than the humans he despised the most, but You can imagine how tormented he was."
Nami snorted, "Who cares about him! It's up to me."
"Don't worry about that!" Luffy slapped the table excitedly, raised his glass and shouted, "Now it's time for a banquet!!!"
"Oh!!!"
Everyone toasted together, thud thud thump... The wine was shaken out of many colliding small wooden barrel glasses.
Robin raised his glass empty-handedly, while drinking, he looked at Chopper who was learning how to prop his nostrils with chopsticks under Luffy's urging.
"My cute pet is going to take someone else's shape~~" "B.I.B" said beside her.
"..." Robin drank quietly.
Finally, she spat out a word, "vulgar." She gave the double a blank look.
...
The Murloc Pirates were packed and taken away by the sailors brought by Bermel.
The Meili sailed back to Cocoyasi Village and stayed for a long time.
When Nuo Qigao and Ajian, who was rescued from the murloc's lair, came back with a lot of ingredients, talking and laughing together, they found that the previously bustling home was empty.
Nami also disappeared, leaving only a letter left by her.
"I'm going to be a pirate! Ms. Bermer, a righteous sailor, don't catch me in the future~~"
"—I love your daughter, Nami (lip print)"
"What about me?!" Nuo Qigao read the letter over and over, clenched his fists and his eyes glowed, "Bastard Nami, I can't spare you in the future!"
Nuo Qigao couldn't help laughing again when she thought of Nami and those pirates laughing and playing, innocent and bright.
~~~~~~~~~~
Robin picked an orange, "What a fresh orange."
Nami put her hips on her hips and said with a smile: "It's great, right? The oranges my mother grows are the best."
Before she set off, she transplanted an orange tree directly to the Meili.
"It's really delicious!" Chopper said happily, "It's sweet, I thought it was sour..."
On the deck, Luffy is holding his first reward order, proudly showing off to his friends, 30 million Baileys!
"I can already see the island in front..."
The sea breeze messed up their long hair, Robin and "B.I.B" looked ahead, and an island seemed to be slowly driving towards them with a piece of history.
"Oh," Sanji lit a cigarette, "it's the island where Rogue Town is located..."
Sauron was lying on the fence, "It's the place where Pirate King Roger was born and executed, and it's called the 'beginning and ending place'."
Nami smiled and said, "Would you like to take a look?"
"Of course!" Luffy raised his fist, "Bring the boat closer!"
The place where Ace's father, Roger the Pirate King, was executed... Luffy got off the boat, stood on the busy street of Rogge Town, and said firmly, "I'm going to see the execution platform."
"I'm going to go shopping for clothes," Nami said.
"I'll see if there are any fresh ingredients." Sanji said with a smile.
"I'm going to replenish the equipment." Usopp was enthusiastic.
"I also want to buy something." Sauron patted the only one left on his body and said, "There are still two knives..."
Chopper raised his hand, "I want to add medical supplies too!"
It looked at Robin, "Robin, what about you?"
"Me?" Robin pressed a hat on, and looked towards a certain direction in Rogue Town with "B.I.B", "It seems that someone I know is on this island, I want to go and see... ..."
Chopper looked at the back of Robin walking away alone, and was a little puzzled. Who was Robin talking about?
"Chopper, hurry up." Zoro greeted from the front.
"Oh!" Chopper turned into a reindeer and hurriedly followed.
...
"B.I.B" followed Robin like a dark ghost. The two passed through the crowd unhurriedly, and there were fewer and fewer pedestrians around. They turned around in Rogue Town and finally stood at the corner The entrance of a dilapidated tavern, directly pushed the door and entered.
There were not many guests in the tavern, and therefore, the few pirates who were drinking immediately cast their eyes on Robin who pushed the door in.
Robin pressed down on the brim of his hat, ignoring the gazes around him, walked slowly to a man in a cloak by the bar and sat down, tapped his fingers on the bar table, "Have a glass of tulip wine."
A question mark slowly appeared on the head of the bartender behind the bar.
"How can there be that kind of wine?" The man next to him slowly took off the hood of his cloak, revealing Dorag's rough face that didn't look like a good man, "I didn't expect you two to stay with Luffy Together……"
