Outside the Carnival Hotel, Sidnia found a place to hide.
She was leaning on a wooden barrel, surrounded by several stacked boxes that were a little high. The seat she was currently in was a gap between a pile of goods, and the sides were sealed by the wall, but there was just enough room for one person to fit inside.
Sidnia is a devil fruit user. She ate the super power hole fruit, which allows her to make holes in any object, including humans.
Of course, this hole is a temporary hole and will not even cause any damage to the place where the hole was made. It is actually a devil fruit with no offensive ability at all.
Of course, if it were someone else, it might not be too strong, but if it were her, this devil fruit would actually be very convenient.
Especially for her business.
"I really didn't expect you guys to value me so much~"
Sidnia dragged her cheeks and was speechless.
After doing this so many times, this is the first time I have encountered a force that values an insignificant person like her so much.
"But the more you value me, the more you hide some secrets that must not be known to anyone."
Suddenly she shut her mouth.
"Bang bang bang~" Youyouzi sat on the wooden box and knocked on the wooden box wordlessly. "Stop pretending, I know you are in there. They have gone far."
After a few seconds of silence, a large hole was opened on the side of the box. Sidonia slowly walked out of the hole. After she walked out, the hole behind her returned to the original state. The box was still a box without any changes.
Just like when she left the room, the wall was still intact, but her presence had passed through.
Very magical!
The physics knowledge Yuyuko knew could not explain this magical ability at all.
It can only be said that superpowers are indeed abilities that transcend reality.
"How did you find me? This place should be impossible to find." Sidnia sighed and sat on the box.
She did not choose to escape, or in her opinion, there was no need to escape when facing Youyouzi.
First, this person would not do anything to her at all.
This was already known from the fact that the other party treated her so calmly even after being vomited all over her body. The key point was that Sidnia's professionalism gave her a deeper understanding of people.
Yeah, very profound.
Especially after possessing the Dongdong Fruit, this understanding became even more profound.
The second point is even simpler.
If she can't win, she is not incapable of fighting, but she doesn't like fighting, because according to her profession, as long as she takes action, she will subconsciously let the opponent die suddenly. It's too cruel, so I usually don't do anything.
Facing Youyouzi, she had only one feeling.
No need to fight at all.
Just like the 'super brave' man who was kicked away by Yuyouzi, she didn't see what Yuyouzi did at all. It only took a moment, then she appeared there quietly, and then she saw People flew out.
too fast.
This can only be caused by the huge disparity in strength.
"It's too easy to find you, so I won't say anything." Youyouzi said lightly.
Then he asked, "Why did they just run away if they couldn't defeat you?"
"Why fight?"
"Why not fight?"
Sidnia sighed, "It will kill people..."
"understood."
"..." Do you understand now?
Sidnia chuckled and said, "You don't understand anything."
"Do I need to understand?" Youyouzi asked.
"Okay, it seems you do understand."
"I feel like I may not understand at all."
"It seems you understand completely."
The two looked at each other and smiled without talking.
Keya, who had just caught up, looked confused.
What are you talking about? Why do I suddenly understand nothing? Aren’t we here to find someone?
Youyouzi smiled faintly, "You didn't enter our channel."
What exactly was the conversation about?
Why not fight?
Don't want to fight.
Why don't you want to fight?
People will die.
Why people die.
Can't hold back. Don't you ask me why?
no need. Just say what you want to say.
…
"Do you want to go back with us? The meal is not over yet." Youyouzi said.
Although she was naturally unhappy with this troublesome Yuyuko, she was not the kind of person who cared about such things.
Just take things as they come, it's fate when you meet them.
This is travel. Every encounter is not deliberate, but there are always some people and things that make people feel happy in a different way.
Sidnia shook her head, "Forget it, we are just passers-by. Besides, I was not only on the street, um... that, but I also had a meal. If I let you interfere with these things of mine, wouldn't it seem that I am unreasonable?" ."
It is actually a normal choice for the other party not to let themselves get into the other party's troubles.
A chance encounter is a fate, but this is not enough for people to take the initiative to help you. If someone takes the initiative to help you, it is either a conspiracy or a fool.
However, well-intentioned idiots are in the minority, and conspiracies are the majority.
This scene ends at the click of a button.
"Ok, I see."
Thinking of this, Youyouzi no longer tried to stay, but took a folded cloth bag from Keya and handed it to him.
"This should be the guy you eat with. Don't throw it away~ This thing is quite sharp."
After saying that, Youyouzi turned around and left.
The purpose of her pursuit was actually to return the bag of things to the other party. Although it looks like it hasn't been used for a long time, the maintenance within it shows that this is the other party's job.
Looking at the cloth bag in his hand, Sidnia was also slightly startled.
The expression was a little awkward, "It's really sharp..."
Looking at the direction Yuyouzi was leaving, he couldn't help but reveal a wry smile. "If you don't tell me, I'll almost forget what I do." "Why do you always have to think of this... Hey~ I don't do this anymore... …”
With a long sigh, Sidnia turned and left in the opposite direction of Yuyuko.
………
"Are you trying to recruit her?"
Keya on the paper crane asked Youyouzi beside him. "Her job is exactly what we need, right? And judging from the situation, her fighting ability is no worse than Bonnie."
"And...she uses the fruit's abilities extremely skillfully."
Yuyouzi curled her lips, "Nothing, I don't care about an old woman with big waves, and she's not the gentle type like Sister Bella, so I don't even want it. ... But you are right, her fruit ability It’s really well used…”
Dongdong Fruit, this is a fruit recorded in the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book.
Its fruit ability has never been very popular because it cannot directly cause damage and can only play a supporting role in combat. And it has no famous owner at all.
This also means that this fruit's ability is not strong, and there is no precedent for the application of its fruit's ability.
It is difficult for Yuyuko to come up with any good ideas for this kind of fruit ability that transcends common sense in physics, let alone develop it.
But now Sidnia's development of the fruit's ability surprised Yuyuko.
Not only that, the opponent's fighting ability is definitely not at the level of self-preservation.
Even Yuyouzi didn't notice how she left when she blocked the door.
The ability to float away in the constant listening wind of Yuyouzi is certainly due to the other party's fruit ability, but judging from some of the other party's subconscious movement habits and the conversation just now, the other party's strength is definitely not at an average level.
"Forget it, I don't miss her anymore. If we are destined to meet again, don't we already have a goal for the next candidate?"
Yuyuko was of course referring to Dorothea recommended by Kurokas.
At least from Kurokas' description, that would be a ship doctor that is more suitable for them.
The old woman was an interesting person, but their bond wasn't close enough to lead to adventures together.
"If Dorothea refuses, it won't be too late for us to come back to her then."
"Um."
What happens next is much simpler.
Go back to the hotel and continue eating.
As for the door panel, Yuyouzi naturally couldn't pay compensation. Yuyouzi even staged a drama of rushing to file a lawsuit, which made the Carnival Hotel no better.
The carnival aspect is also very helpless.
One party was a force he didn't want to mess with, and the guests on the other party seemed to be the kind of people he couldn't mess with.
On the one hand, I don’t dare to ask for it, but on the other hand, I still want to make trouble.
In the end, they had no choice but to let it go, and the hotel itself had to bear the bad debt.
However, repairing the door is naturally not something that can be solved in one or two steps, so Yuyouzi and his party had no choice but to change to a similar suite.
After relocating everything, Yuyuko told the interesting things she heard.
"The Ferris wheel is not a Ferris wheel? What is that?" Qishi rolled his eyes speechlessly. "These are all rotten words said by rotten people. Can't you just talk properly?"
"Wouldn't it be a lot less fun if you knew it directly?" Unlike Qishi's thoughts, Yanan was full of interest. "It's just like studying shipbuilding. If you know how to build it from the beginning, it would be completely meaningless."
Ya Lei, who rarely spoke next to her, also nodded in agreement.
Although the sisters don't like brainstorming like strategies, they are still very interested in general decryption stuff.
curious?
It’s okay to be curious.
Exploring this kind of thing is not like lifting the veil of a graceful dancer. What is important is not the result of sinking fish and falling geese, but the process of how to lift the veil. After all, the result may also be the 'flowery' aunt Connor.
Keya and Reiju looked at each other, nodded slightly to each other, and said nothing.
Kena on the side noticed the small movements of the two people and approached them silently.
Then the three of them began to talk secretly and silently.
If there is a sound, it is no secret here in Youyouzi. Like Xinwang, Tingfeng's ability is completely buggy as long as Yuyouzi's consciousness is online.
…
On an empty beach east of Carnival City
A tall figure fell from the sky. He landed smoothly, but made a dog-paw-like hole on the beach.
He wore a pair of square-rimmed glasses and held a book that looked like a Bible in his hand.
The glasses reflect the colorful colors in the carnival city night.
His face was as pale as frost, and even the brightly lit Carnival City in front of him showed no signs of disturbance. He just stood quietly for a while, seeming to be thinking about something, and then he took out a phone bug.
"Bulu Bulu..."
The call came through quickly.
"Bear, if you calculate the time, you should be in Carnival City now."
"Yes, tell me what you need me to do."
Xiong looked at the Carnival City not far away quietly and didn't know what he was thinking.
Accepting the World Government's recruitment to become a Shichibukai is both a shackle and a mission for Xiong. It is also a task that only he can complete.
He does not have the prestige of becoming a Shichibukai, and he is not even a simple pirate. His joining was nothing more than a threat to exploit his weakness.
But this is exactly in line with the strategy of the revolutionary army.
A Shichibukai who was coerced by the World Government and joined will naturally help the World Government do many things, and this will allow the Revolutionary Army to gain a lot of intelligence, and even gain access to some information that is difficult for the navy to access.
This is something only a bear can do.
Because only the character shown by the bear will reassure the world government.
"To test whether a person has the strength to become a Shichibukai. Judging from the time, they should have arrived at Carnival City not long ago." "The Hikka Pirates, the leader, Shikami Yuyuko."
"……Okay, I know."
Xiong doesn't talk much, and when he does speak it's very brief.
This kind of dialogue also makes the world government very comfortable. Xiong's way of speaking has the feeling of a superior talking to a subordinate, the way the boss says to do it and the employees say yes.
After hanging up the phone, Xiong sat on a rock on the edge of the beach and quietly took out the book he carried with him and opened it to read.
"The Hikka Pirates... Shikami Yuyuko..."
After thinking about it, Xiong took out a stone sign with a strange mark and walked towards Carnival City.
Even though he became the Qibukai because he had leverage in the hands of the World Government, the World Government did not dare to use him completely as a lackey. The Qibukai's independent will was still needed, otherwise the show would be too fake.
However, whether this independent direction is what the world government expects, Xiong will naturally not tell the other party.
On the other side, a member of the Five Old Stars slowly turned to the phone bug in his hand.
"Is there no problem with the bear?"
one person asked.
"The affairs of the Solbe Kingdom are his weakness. Judging from the current situation, the bear should be a useful chess piece. But I didn't expect that the person who was named a 'tyrant' was actually not a tyrant at all."
"Do you want to help him suppress the rebellion in the Kingdom of Solbe?"
"do you need?"
"Let him decide for himself. As the Shichibukai, he already has the right to call on some of the powers of the World Government, and as for Xiong... as long as it doesn't go too far, let him go. After all, you can't go too far."
Although the Shichibukai directly obey the orders of the World Government and are themselves an emergency establishment, as long as the World Government speaks, many of the World Government's authority can be fully delegated to them.
"Let's wait for the news and take a look at the bear's attitude this time..."
"Let's talk about another question. Do the Hikka Pirates really have the qualifications to become the Shichibukai?"
The bearded man said "Not enough!"
"But they have that potential. They also have the strength of the Shichibukai, and..."
A report was placed on the table, "According to CP0's investigation, their captain's relationship network is a bit troublesome."
"The newly promoted Yonko Shanks, the old remnant of the era Pluto Rayleigh, the current Shichibukai Snake Princess, and this name seems to be the name of the country of Wano. If such people cannot become our people, the future will definitely be a sea of headaches. Thief! I understand what you mean."
The five people reached a consensus, "Then let's discuss another matter. Regarding the wine ore weapon deal provided by Kaido..."
