Chapter 129: Separation
It took two days, and after storing the magnetism of St. Topol, the queen's capital of this spring, the record pointed out the direction of the next island.
The so-called navigation is an extremely boring thing, the endless sky, the blue grassland-like sea, and the blue world with only a lonely sail will magnify people's loneliness to the greatest extent.
It was by no means pleasant, as evidenced by the fact that Ryuzaki Kazuaki was now slumped on the deck, and Kuro was impatiently walking around the side of the boat, and the little girl Shirley stared blankly at the disgusting expanse of the sky.
Only Lance was lazily lying on the bow of the ship basking in the sun, and for the beast, he was well fed and drunk, and his life was quite comfortable until he was not eaten by the monster on the ship.
To be precise, none of the people on this ship were qualified sailors, including the captain, who had neither experience nor knowledge, but a rabble of people who would happen to come together by chance. There was no entertainment on this little wrecked ship, and even except for the little girl Shirley, the other three stupid people didn't like to read books to pass the time, and even Shirley, the books in her hand had been flipped back and forth many times.
These books are all the product of clever deduction when supplying supplies, although for the captain who has no concept of money at all, even if all the Bailey on the ship is stolen, I'm afraid there will be no reaction, right?
She looked at the closed captain's room with some concern, the matter on the island of St. Poplar, which Kuro was indifferent to, and Yihuang was also drunk and unaware, but she knew everything about it.
That is not the reaction that a normal person should have, and perhaps it is precisely because the captain is not a normal person that he will take him in and refuse the unscrupulous reward. Even if he caused trouble to Mr. Wren, that man didn't ask a word more about himself.
To the little girl, Shirley, Wren is an incredible person.
If she had to describe it, words like psychopathy and weirdo would be the first to come to her mind. It's not a belittling or other frivolous assessment, it's reality.
Mr. Wren, I'm afraid...... I went crazy a long time ago.
Shirley carefully observed the moody captain, who had taken him in, sometimes enthusiastic, sometimes indifferent as ice, and since they met, the captain's mental state had never been stable. For a certain period of time, he takes a great interest in something, and then treats it as nothing. His seemingly one-sided single-plank bridge fundamentally neglects to protect himself, which is diametrically opposed to the instinctive self-protection of ordinary people.
These were all negative comments, but the little girl Shirley was surprisingly not disgusted or frightened. This person, I don't know if it's because he's crazy, his words and deeds so far are simply, like a good person?
The little girl, Shirley, didn't know what had happened to Wren before, but since they met, judging from the results, Wren took in Shirley, took in Yihuang, and didn't eat Lance, unlike a pirate who likes to burn and loot.
This person must have been distorted somewhere, and that distortion did not make him illogically crazy, but instead produced some kind of change of mood that was inhumane to outsiders. The helpless little girl Shirley is not disgusted by this, she has already seen the darkness and distortion in the hearts of those so-called normal people, and none of those normal people are willing to lend a helping hand to her, so that she is pitifully abandoned by her parents and wanders in this world of pirates rampant and indifferent.
But only that person was different, and even though he didn't say a word, the seemingly indifferent Mr. Captain actually helped her the most.
For an adult, it may be a development that will make others laugh at and even feel bloody, but for a child under the age of ten, even if she is precocious, the indifferent Mr. Captain is the only reliance for this little child.
It is a very ironic and tragic scene for a miserable child to feel that only a twisted madman can have something to rely on.
"See! It's an island! ”
The energetic call dispelled all the clouds, and Kulo, the man of the empty island running on the road of the earth and the clouds, could not stand the small hull and the endless sea. He looked at the unusual island in the distance, and recalled the information he got from the Spring Queen's Capital [St. Poplar], and the small island in front of him was probably the small island that is famous all over the world, the Seven Islands of Water, which is famous for its shipbuilding industry!
Hearing that voice, Yihuang, who was already paralyzed on the deck, suddenly came to his senses, and after entering the magnetic range of the island, he brought Yihuang a feeling, as if even the air had become fresh! He couldn't wait to start thinking about what delicious local snacks the island had!
As the creaking old wooden door on the second floor was pushed open, a sleepy Wren yawned and walked to the fence, apparently disturbed by Fang Cai's hearty shout.
Turning to look at Wren, Kuro took a few steps towards him with a smile and looked up at him.
"In front of us is the shipbuilding city of Mizunoshima...... Wren, thanks to your care during this time, let's leave it at that. ”
Without any disguise, Kuro bluntly stated his purpose.
He had only taken Wren's ship to come to this blue sea, and after getting a little familiar with this blue sea, Kuro naturally acted for his own purposes.
Neither Shirley nor Yihuang was surprised by this, the people on this ship, not partners, were all on board for their own purposes, and Wren had gone to sea to find [ONEPIECE], wanting to know what kind of interesting thing the greatest treasure in the world was. Therefore, his goal is very clear, and this clear goal has nothing in common with Kulo's goal.
He only came to this blue ocean to chase down the enemy of fate, he needed time, manpower, money, material resources, etc. to track down that man, and it was obviously impossible for Wren to stop all his personal boring hatred on his course.
Kuro is ready, and after buying his own ship on the Seven Islands of Water, he embarks on his own path of revenge.
With that, Wren yawned without any reaction and turned back to the room, as if Kuro had never appeared on his ship, unresponsive to it.
Leaving Kulo alone, he touched his head a little embarrassed, although they didn't get along for a long time, but what kind of bad temper Wren was, he had experienced it personally, and he was not dissatisfied with it.
Looking at the city that was getting closer and closer, Kulo's smiling face gradually fell silent, thinking about the old enemy who didn't know where he was at the moment, and the process of finding him must not be easy.
For a long time, he showed a fierce look of excitement on his face.
"Wherever you are, I'll find you! Tear you to shreds! ”
