"Let me get off the boat at the next stop."
Bonnie said this on the way back.
"Get off the boat? What do you mean?" Kena asked with a frown.
"That's what I mean. I want to quit. You should be able to see that this place is not suitable for me."
"Why?"
"Why, because it's not suitable." Bonnie thought about this for a long time. At first, she came here because she met Locke who came back with the bear in the Kingdom of Solbe. Later, the bear became what people call a 'tyrant'. She didn't believe that the bear would become such a person, so she came out to take a look. .
"Why is it inappropriate?"
"Isn't it obvious?" Bonnie was a little angry. She had a rather irritable personality, and she had been depressed enough during this period. "You and I are not the same people at all. I have a certain purpose! Anyway, I want to quit."
Yuyuko and Bonnie looked at each other for two seconds, thought for a moment and then nodded, "OK, no problem."
Bonnie wanted to leave, but Yuyouzi only thought about it briefly before agreeing.
Bonnie was not originally recruited by herself, but Locker asked Laxus to bring her. According to Laxus, it was basically to see if they would accept her. If not, Laxus would take it with him. . But according to Bonnie's character... Lagerthas probably doesn't want to stay at all.
Apart from these, the second reason is that Bonnie is the weakest in terms of strength except for her fruit abilities.
Even Ya Lei, who is not good at fighting, is not afraid of her.
During the six months in Visalia, Kona taught her how to practice domineering, but even the worst armed domineering requires a solid physical foundation, and Bonnie did not meet the requirements in this regard. It can be said that Bonnie For Yuyuko, it can neither serve as a combat power nor be functional. Although it is rude to treat people as objects, considering the cost-effectiveness, Bonnie is actually a burden to Yuyuko.
But Yuyouzi didn't mind taking him with him before, after all, no one has a progress process.
But now Yuyuko has actually attracted the attention of the world government, and has also provoked people from the dark world. After all, there is a wolf in front and a tiger in the back. There will definitely be many difficult battles on the road ahead. Besides, Bonnie's current strength simply cannot survive on the battlefield of the new world. Even when Bonnie and Luffy entered the new world in the same era later, it was a bit reluctant.
The last point is something Yuyuko has to consider.
Bonnie is very unsociable, or she is born to be a loner, or she becomes an arrogant leader, or she is a maverick by herself. In terms of personality, she is not suitable for Yuyuko's team with a different personality.
Yuyuko estimated that Bonnie herself had thought through all kinds of issues.
However, Yuyuko seemed a little surprised when she agreed to Bonnie easily.
"What's wrong? Are you surprised that she would agree to your request?" Kena said lightly.
"It's true." Bonnie said bluntly, a normal fleet would not allow people to leave casually.
"Then do you think our fleet is normal?"
Is it normal?
An idealistic captain? A cute and stupid mascot? A cold first officer? Three eldest ladies who usually don't talk to each other? Two lolita who just sit on the bottom of the boat thinking about machinery when they have nothing to do? Or do you practice swordplay at the stern of the boat every day? Or is it the reporter running around making a fuss?
That's enough, there's not even a clean place to sleep.
This is not normal at all.
Her gradually losing sight of her eyes revealed her answer.
Yes, not normal at all.
The captain is not like a captain, and the crew is not like a crew. How is it normal for the pirates to be good guys every day? !
Kona shook her head and asked, "Then why do you think we continue to stay here?"
Bonnie shook her head and looked at Kena in confusion, "Why?"
Even without Kona's words, Bonnie still wanted to ask. She thought about this problem for a long time, but she never figured out the reason.
"Because for us, this is 'normal'. Or... forget it." Kena shook her head. "I want to say that for us, this world is actually abnormal, right?"
"This?!" Bonnie was stunned on the spot.
…
other side
The conversation between Adu and his father, Op, was less comfortable.
Aduk had suppressed his anger before because he was in front of the crowd, but now that Op took him away from the crowd specifically, he no longer had to suppress it.
After the matter was resolved, he punched Op directly.
Punch to the face, right on the bridge of the nose.
Op didn't use his domineering power to resist, or even defended himself at all. He knew this was what he should do.
"Where have you been all these years?" Adu asked angrily.
Blood flowed out of his nostrils, but Op's expression did not change, or he did not dare to make any changes.
Any expression is useless. He learned this from his father.
man! Father!
If you make a mistake, you are wrong. If you make a mistake, you must bear your own mistakes. Any unnecessary words are weakness.
"Sorry, I went to be a pirate."
"Does an apology help? Do you know how I got here all these years?! You bastard!"
Op looked at this child with an angry face, but couldn't stop the tears and runny nose, and felt extremely guilty.
It was his choice to leave, and it was his fear not to take him with him, but Whitebeard taught him one thing in the new world.
Nothing is more important than your family!
Opening his hands, Opp hugged Adu.
Having escaped his fatherly responsibilities for so long, he must now shoulder them again.
"Child, I will take you away this time. As long as I am still standing, no one will be able to hurt you!"
…
The old captain at the entrance of the village straightened his back slightly. This is a rare respect for him who has been engaged in mining for many years.
"So you are leaving soon? Don't you want to stay for two more days?"
Youyouzi put the bamboo hat on her head and smiled, "You should also know what happened last night. If we don't leave, we may be in trouble."
Although Yuyuko and the others lived in a remote place last night, the noise of the fighting was not small at all. Everyone naturally knew that there was a fight between the 'angels' last night.
The old village chief was one of them. At dawn in the morning, he got up and went to the place where Yuyouzi and the others fought last night. The place was a mess beyond recognition, with potholes everywhere, even more messy than the mine they dug. And this was only caused in a short period of time.
This shows how fierce the battle last night was.
"It's us who brought you trouble..." The old village chief sighed and shook his head. He turned around and took a box from the hand of a young man behind him.
"Some people say this thing is a sacred object, and some people say it is evil. For many years, no one has dared to touch it. But there is nothing valuable in the village. This thing should be the most valuable thing. It's your words. It should become a sacred object.”
The small, rough box was square and had the smell of rust. It had obviously been dusty for many years.
Youyouzi took the box, took a look at it, and immediately closed it again.
The corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously.
He muttered "Why is it a devil fruit again..."
It’s not that Devil Fruits are bad, the point is that Devil Fruits are actually the big blind box of the One Piece world. For those who don't have a devil fruit illustrated book, this thing is the dog fruit.
If you win the bet, you will be the winner in life, if you lose the bet...
Sorry, your account is invalid.
A typical representative of this is a certain jacket fruit.
Can you talk about the ability to turn into a piece of clothing that has no special characteristics and wear it on others, but also requires others to take the initiative to wear it?
Although fruit capacity development determines the strength of the fruit.
But the fact is that the world is inherently unfair, and the abilities of some fruits have a ceiling as soon as they are born.
For example, natural type, fantasy beast species...
And this golden fruit...
Sorry, Yuyuko has no impression. I'll ask Reiju later if she knows. She may know from the devil fruit illustrated book. If there is no information, then this will be a new dog-blocking fruit.
However, the value of the Devil Fruit was too great. Yuyuko accepted it and felt indebted. After all, this thing is a top-notch blind box even if it is a dog blind box. The base price starts at 100 million. Normally, it is worth more than a mermaid slave girl.
After thinking for a while, Yuyuko took out a phone bug as a return gift.
This phone bug is a special phone bug given by Laxus. It can directly contact the five of them. It is a high-end product that goes directly to the center.
"What is this for?" The old village chief looked at the phone bug Youyouzi brought with a confused look on his face.
Phone bug? What did they use this for?
"Old village chief, this is a gift in return. If you run into trouble again, you can just call this phone number and someone will come to help you." Yuyouzi smiled and prepared to leave after explaining.
Laxus, the phone bug, gave one to Yuyuko, but Bonnie actually had one on her body, and Bonnie probably didn't want to take it with her. After all, Laxus forced her to keep it in the first place. The next stop is... If Ni is gone, this phone bug will probably stay, so it doesn't matter if you give one away.
Besides, I don’t think what will happen even if Yuyouzi is gone. After all, it’s only been a few years, how much energy can those guys have?
It is true that a single spark can start a prairie fire, but before a single spark can start a prairie fire, it has been dormant for who knows how many years. Now they are probably still at sea trying to recruit people to join their ranks.
…
"Oh!"
Locke suddenly sneezed on an inconspicuous windless island on the Grand Line.
The bespectacled girl Tasia glanced coldly, "Bald man, we are in a meeting now! Don't interrupt!"
"Asshole, I'm not bald, I just have sparse hair!" Locke wiped his nose and said dissatisfied. "Besides, I just sneezed."
Tasia raised her glasses and said, "So where do you think I just said it?"
Locke touched his smooth head and felt the hair piles that existed on it and answered uncertainly.
"Um...who should I fight next?"
"Well..." Tasia covered her head helplessly.
Although she liked this man very much, Tasia had to admit that in some respects, this man... was an idiot.
Others in the conference room gave Tasia sympathetic looks.
The big secretary actually likes a man like Boss Locke. It’s really...
Very good.
Thinking of the boss's endless madness, a group of people were frightened just thinking about it. You must know that the only person in this base who can call the boss bald and still be righteous is Tasia.
In private, everyone also likes to call Tasia sister-in-law.
At the same time, only an idiot like Locke can make Tasia have some humanity in dealing with things.
That's right, Tasia's characteristic is that she is too cold.
When they first saw Tasia, they felt like they were seeing a machine.
It has no human characteristics other than a human form.
Tasia didn't want to say anything more. This important meeting was to discuss what kind of actions the core members of their 'Lan' organization should take after the leader goes to sea. The previous topic was not about who to fight, but about who to fight. How to successfully position 'Lan' as an ordinary pirate alliance in front of everyone.
For this reason, the conclusion they discussed was to temporarily suppress the efficiency of personnel recruitment and enhance the reputation of 'Arashi' as a pirate force.
That is, how to make everyone feel that this group of people is really a group of pirates.
"Then let's move on to the next topic."
"Do we need to start infiltrating the navy or the world government forces? This is a very difficult matter. You must know that the people who infiltrate the navy or the world government forces are spies. Now tell me what you think..."
Rocker: ZZZZ(¦3____]
Tasia:......(▼ヘ▼#)
Everyone:...(；￣д￣)
In the middle of the discussion, a phone call came.
"Brumuru! Brumuru!"
Locke stood up angrily, "Who is it? He's sleeping!"
Everyone: ...(￣ω￣;) You still know that you are sleeping!
"Well, I just called you to try." A timid voice came from the other side.
"Try?"
Locke looked confused. What new way of speaking is this?
The phone bug on his body usually only accepts calls from their core five people. The core five people refer to the four brothers except him, and the secretary-general Tasia.
But this was a sound I had never heard before.
Locke paused and asked tentatively, "Pagoda suppresses the river demon!"
"Meow meow~ meow meow meow~"
Um[·_·?]
Locke took away the phone bug. Yes, it was his own special phone bug. That's right! Could it be that the way I opened it was wrong?
After thinking for a while, Locke continued to ask, "What is flying in the sky?"
On Jianshan Island, the old village chief looked up at the sky, "Birds or clouds?"
"Hey, that's right?" Locke became more confused and continued to ask, "What's floating in the wind?"
The old village chief looked around blankly. A few pieces of broken flowers were blowing up in the wind, shaking off the branches on the trees. "Petals or dew?"
"What's buried in the ground?"
The old village chief was puzzled, "Okay, what are you people doing? Isn't it enough to ask a few questions? What is all this? The person who gave me the phone bug told me that I can ask you for help. What are you doing? Are you right about the couplet?"
Rocker "..."
"Okay, who are you, why are you calling me, and what's going on with you?"
The old village chief breathed a sigh of relief, "That's right. I'm just saying that making a phone call is inexplicable. It's like a secret phone call."
This is a secret phone number, okay...
Locke thought for a while and asked, "Did the person who called you say anything strange?"
"Strange words?" The old village chief thought for a moment and nodded. "They did say something. They said if you don't want to talk to me, just say this to the person who answers the phone."
"The wind said, it is still early for the flower of miracles to bloom. It must be buried deeply."
Locke understood something instantly.
After being stunned for a moment, Locke replied, "Okay, I understand. If you need any help, you can come to us. Also, I want to ask, is the person who gave you the phone bug still with you?"
The old village chief looked at the newborn sun and said with a smile, "They left happily."
After chatting for a while, Locke hung up the phone.
"What happened?" Tasia asked coldly.
"The wind said, it's still early for the miracle flower to bloom. It needs to be deeply rooted to bloom." Locke laughed loudly as he said, "So that's it, that's it."
Locke understood again.
………
On the way back to the Dabai, Bella asked in confusion, "Yuyouzi, what did you mean by the last words you said to that old man?"
"What do you mean~" Yuyouzi tilted her head and said speechlessly, "What can it mean? When I asked them to disembark, I left a sentence that they would go to the Shampoo Islands when the flowers of miracles bloomed, so as long as they mentioned the flowers of miracles, Bloom, they should have understood that it was me who gave the phone bug.”
"Then why did you add the last sentence?" Bella thought about how to bloom this sentence by burying her roots deeply.
"Oh, that's just to make up the word count." Youyouzi said calmly, "And doesn't it sound more artistic?"
