"Hey, hey, no, I just want to paddle. Why is it the first time~" Raphael scratched his head helplessly, feeling that this day had never passed.
Although he doesn't know why, he has always been resistant to standing in a conspicuous position. Whether eating, sleeping or going to the toilet, he will naturally choose to keep a low profile.
In other words, this is not low-key, he feels that he just wants to get ahead, or to be more precise, he is fishing in the water.
"Life is already very difficult, why don't you just let me be a salty fish in peace~"
Raphael complained sadly to the sea.
I thought I could live a happy and peaceful life of fishing without that big brother, Han Locke, but... recruit training, pirates attacked.
Recruit training...pirate attack.
Recruit ability review...Pirate attack
For the first time, he stood in the crowd and hoped that some big guys in the navy would stand up. As a result, the 'big guys' were lying together. Finally, the pirates noticed him first one, then two, and finally more and more inexplicably, and he It was an immediate success.
Then for the second time, a powerful navy came to the base. He learned from the previous experience and found a hidden place hoping to wait until the matter was over. As a result, the pirates divided into two groups and attacked from both sides. They wanted to catch the navy by surprise, but they met him... He dragged him until the reinforcements arrived. So he made a meritorious deed again...
During the final re-examination, he was exempted from the final review because of his meritorious service, and was assigned to serve as a prison guard in Xianyu. Who knew that the prison was the pirate who attacked during the last gender training? What was even more unfortunate was that the other party actually had accomplices who had not been caught, and they took advantage of this time to come and rob the prison.
When the other party was about to leave the prison, the other party's boss recognized Rafael and started fighting again.
The sound of fighting attracted the attention of the officers who were still reviewing, and Rafael was once again dragged until reinforcements arrived.
At that time, Raphael had only one idea, brother, please leave quickly, reinforcements are coming.
He almost shouted. But the other party really fought with him until reinforcements arrived.
Afterwards, Raphael couldn't help crying but felt that these pirates were sick. And he is mentally ill.
Jailbreaking is not professional.
"Mond, do you think I have a sarcastic face?" Raphael sighed and said weakly.
Mond was stunned, looked at Raphael carefully and said seriously, "No, you are just a little handsome."
"Handsome..." Raphael twitched and couldn't help but continue asking, "How handsome?"
"..." Mond hesitated for a moment, and finally said seriously without any concealment, "It's the kind of person who can be found among the crowd."
"for example?"
"The big sapphire in the mine."
"It's really a heartbreaking description." It wasn't just words, Raphael was really heartbroken. "Why didn't I tell you that when I first came here?"
"That's it~" Mond thought for a moment, "Your hair was disheveled, your face was dirty, and you were wearing something unconventional. You thought you were a beggar. Then you took a shower and changed your clothes. If If you hadn't taken the initiative to find me, I wouldn't have dared to recognize you."
Having said this, Raphael suddenly remembered that when he found the other party, the other party seemed to have a puzzled expression.
…
Face covering... Am I just this kind of person?
Can you give me a passerby character...
"By the way, the director of Delevingne Base just now said that you have outstanding talents and will definitely be able to carry the banner of justice in the future, so... he recommended you to the headquarters. You are about to go to the Navy Headquarters Marineford to receive training as an elite sailor of the Navy. "
Raphael stayed where he was for a moment "..."
"Why?!" Raphael asked with a weird smile, "Shouldn't we have to wait a few more months?"
Mond patted his chest and said proudly, "Brother, the base commander said that your strength and achievements have met the requirements for rapid recommendation within the Navy, so he gave you one of his only two quotas a year."
The conditions for quick recommendation are said to be recommendations, but they are actually special channels for special talents.
Generally, this qualification can only be found in naval bases that often conflict with pirates, and the people selected are usually naval seeds who the base commander believes will have school-level strength or even general-level strength in the future.
Raphael: How virtuous and capable I am~
If he had known the current situation, he would have covered his face with mud and laid it on the ground as a corpse.
By the way, the same goes for Rocker who pushes him to teach Haki like a good friend as soon as they meet, and the same goes for Tasia who has an overall cold face and talks about how to survive by training to become stronger. This is more than just being able to survive, it is almost making people want to die...
Forget it, let’s eat the apple~
On the way out for a walk, Raphael asked the boss at the roadside fruit stand to choose some apples at any time.
"Hey, Raphael, that apple in your hand is so weird!"
strangeness?
It was okay if Mond didn't say it. As soon as Raphael said it, he noticed that the fruity flavor in his mouth was indeed a bit 'wonderful' and looked down.
What was an ordinary apple in his hand was clearly a devil fruit.
"Great! This is the secret treasure of the sea, the Devil Fruit! Raphael, you have become more developed. It is said that every fruit-powered user will receive special care in the headquarters training camp, and their status will be higher after they come out."
Mond was very happy, but he didn't realize that Raphael's entire face was already blue.
Owner of the fruit stall, thank you very much~
…
Barsomy Bear accepted the book.
Looking out of the boat, his face was expressionless, but he was starting to panic inside.
It’s been a week!
They didn't just lose the boat.
But this boat... and the thing in the boat...
"Bulu Bulu..."
Xiong put away his thoughts and answered the phone.
"Bear, how did things go?"
"..."
"Bear, you are talking!"
Seeing that he had been waiting here for seven days, Xiong honestly made a 'fair' evaluation.
"It's a bit troublesome."
Of course, the trouble Xiong mentioned was that he felt it was troublesome, because he could not wait for someone to come to the door, but had to go to the door to find someone himself. This is very troublesome. Even though he was once a king, he was still used to others approaching him.
But when it came to Wulaoxing on the other end of the phone, something didn't feel right.
The other end of the phone was silent for a while, and then said, "Okay, we understand. It depends on the situation. Once the matter is done, just do your own thing first."
Xiong had just joined the Shichibukai, and it was hard for them to tear their faces apart. It looks so ugly when you eat it like that.
So they still have to have a holiday, and they can rest assured when the bear is actually tied up on a chain.
Xiong didn't know what the other person on the phone was thinking. He hung up the phone quietly and stood up.
Although the body is several meters tall and majestic, the bear has light steps and even walks on the boat without making a single sound.
Looking in one direction, the bear jumped.
It’s better to take the initiative.
…
At Tianlan Shrine, Nanami and her happy garden group have returned.
Although Carnival City is fun, I am still tired after playing for seven days.
After all, playing is also very tiring.
Youyouzi once said. There once was a great man, Lu Xun. He once said: Playing is much more tiring than working.
Qi Shi didn't care at first, how could he get tired from playing.
It's just that after seven days, she just wants to sit quietly under this big tree and look at Youyouzi sitting cross-legged on the tree in a daze. The tea in the small teacup in her hand had already gone cold, but she just stared blankly at the small tree beside her.
The whole person seemed to have lost his soul.
Yuyuko couldn't help but laugh when she saw Qishi like this for the first time. "You look like a wild Ge You now."
Qishi trembled, and his soul returned to his body: "Ge You, who is Ge You? Why is he wild? Can he still be domesticated?"
When you open your mouth, you are always making a fool of yourself.
If Uncle Ge You hears what you say, Ge You's paralysis will be completely healed. He will definitely jump up on the spot immediately and spin 360 times in the air to hit the dog's head. Youyouzi thought.
But he said seriously, "Well, the wild Ge Yu can be tamed with something called a Poké Ball, and then use the Digimon Machine to evolve him into a Giant of Light, and then he can freely fight against Strike."
Nanami repeated Yuyuko's words, then frowned. The little head fell into silence.
Why do I understand every word, but when they are put together, I have no idea what they are saying?
Kona twitched her mouth and hit Youyouzi on the head with her fist. "Really, you guy is here again!"
This situation may not be familiar to Qi Shi, but Kona is too familiar with it. When she was on the Lilac, Yuyuko would say such words from time to time.
For example, after Pikachu's ultimate evolution, he can transform into a Super Saiyan and compete with Kurosaki Ichigo for Hokage.
Also, there used to be seven dwarfs who defeated Gargamel together, but due to Little Red Riding Hood's plot, they have now become seven gourds. When someone is destined to rescue them, one can be rescued every 648.
"Hey hey hey" rubbed his head, Youyouzi laughed stupidly, trying to pass the test by being cute.
After saying something angrily, Kona asked, "Youyouzi, did you gain anything this time?"
Youyouzi shook her head, "I feel a little bit, but I always feel like something is missing."
Four days ago, after Ruby told Yuyuko about the past on Carnemea Island, she said another thing.
In fact, the treasure that followed Undine to this island did not need them to protect it, because Undine had already hidden it. Only by using Uninhibited Language can the treasure be found, and only by being selected by Uninhibited Language. Only people can have this ability.
But ever since Yuyouzi took the Uninhibited Words, the piano seemed to be dead. No matter how she touched it, there was no reaction.
"Hey, Yuyuko, haven't you finished it yet? I still want to listen to the music from that day." Mina lowered her head in disappointment.
Mina still remembers the music that night, the kind of music that can completely relax people, as if a mother-like person is gently stroking the cheek, slowly embracing the person in her arms, gentle and ethereal.
…
"Perhaps you have fallen into a misunderstanding." Bella walked over slowly holding a book. "I think you fell into a misunderstanding from the beginning."
"Misunderstanding?" Youyouzi wondered, "What misunderstanding?"
Bella smiled softly, "I read in the book that the wind is free and nothing can restrain it. However, the purest music can make the wind surround it consciously."
"What do you mean?" Reijiu was also a little confused.
Bella put down the book and walked up to Yuyouzi. "Captain, did you say before that this harp seems to be dead?"
Youyouzi nodded.
"So what was it before it died, and what is it after it died?"
"Harp!..." Youyouzi said subconsciously. Then everyone fell silent. Then Yuyuko suddenly became excited, "I understand, it is not dead, it is just a dead thing from beginning to end."
Seeing that Yuyuko understood what she meant, Bella continued, "Then besides this piano, is there anything else that Carnemea has never forgotten over the years?"
"Never forgotten?!" Youyuko was stunned for a moment, then her eyes flashed with light, "I understand, I understand, Sister Kona, let's go back to Dabai, I have to pick up something."
Kena was stunned, why was she suddenly about to go back to the boat. Subconsciously asked "What do you want to get?"
"Of course it's my piano! Do you even need to ask?"
Bella's words made Yuyouzi feel like she was enlightened. It's really just a word that wakes people up from their dreams.
What is Uninhibited Language? No matter how strange its identity is, its essence is just a harp. Even though it was strange that it borrowed its power that day, Unruly Words was dead after that. Even Ruby said that Boogie has lost its soul.
And she was misled by the loss of her soul.
Thinking about it now, if Undine really encountered everything now, then she must know that playing Boogie Words will completely turn it into an ordinary piano, so Boogie Words will naturally not be the key. thing.
But Ruby, the origin of Boogie, also said that its earliest name was Free Movement.
Its essence is just a musical instrument, and what else can the mission of an instrument be besides playing music?
And what is it that has not changed for hundreds of years and is related to this unruly language?
Isn’t it the music that Mina said she wanted to listen to again that night?
And didn’t the books in the library also say that? 'Undine's music will guide you to find new winds. '
So all the clues were connected at this moment.
No matter what the new wind represents, one thing will not change. It is not the piano that guides, but the sound of the piano.
So if you want to know the real secret, you must let her use the power of wind to recreate the performance that night. As for musical instruments... she only knows how to play the piano, and her piano is currently lying quietly in the captain's cabin on the Great White.
But just as Yuyouzi was about to leave, a huge figure fell from the sky and stirred up a cloud of dust.
The bear slowly emerged from the dust.
"Captain of the Hikka Pirates, with a bounty of 150 million Baileys, Shikami Yuyuko."
"Got you."
