"So, what's the matter with you this time?" Natsuki lit a cigarette and sat across from Luffy and Robin, supporting her chin with one hand and asked.

Luffy was unexpectedly slightly embarrassed, and said with some embarrassment, "That... That one...

Aunt Xia, we are leaving the Chambord Islands today. ”

"Oh?" Xia Qi suddenly became a little curious, she thought that Luffy and the others would stay on this island for a long time, after all, they were buying furniture and renting a house, so she was a little surprised to leave so quickly.

"Because of some other reasons, the plan has changed a bit, and I need a quiet place now, cultivate well, and settle down." Luffy opened his mouth to explain, taking the initiative to answer Xia Qi's doubts.

Luffy's original plan was to be an active bounty hunter in the Chambord Islands and earn more gold.

Moreover, if he had the opportunity, he could secretly hunt down a few Draconians, although it might cause turmoil in the Chambord Islands at that time, but he didn't care much about that.

It's a pity that the plan can't keep up with the changes.

The navy's encirclement and suppression operation directly wiped out the pirates in the Chambord Islands, and the few fish that were caught in the net were also captured in the subsequent operation, and may have now been sent to the large undersea prison. It is expected that within a year or two, the number of pirates entering the New World will be greatly reduced.

Although in the end, Luffy still made a lot of money and got a lot of gold coins.

But it also led to the fact that many pirates are now watching and dare not set foot in the Chambord Islands at all, so Luffy has no progress in the next month.

The uncontrollability of [X Glove Ver.V.R] also made Luffy understand that although the system items are very powerful, it will take some time and effort to truly master them steadily.

At first, the strength of Rou Zhiyan was relatively mild and weak, and Luffy easily reached the point of mastery and control.

But this time, the evolution of the Gang Flame caused Luffy to completely hit a bottleneck.

That instantaneous burst of power made Luffy unable to use it to fight at all.

Now like this, you can't even unleash your moves, let alone fight with people.

And that "dead air zero point breakthrough. The first version", Luffy knew the power of this move for a long time.

Originally, he thought that he would have to comprehend it on his own, but he didn't expect that after evolution, the glove directly helped him.

The flame of death is a manifestation of a person's inner strength.

Whether it's the flame of softness, the flame of rigidity, or the proliferative flame used by Robin, it is an energy ignited by determination and awareness.

"Dead air zero point breakthrough. The "first version" is to suppress this fighting spirit to a minimum, and under absolute calm, release the energy of enlightenment, and its manifestation is also transformed into ice as opposed to fire.

Although the deterrent power of this move may be far less powerful than the frozen fruit of Admiral Pheasant, it cannot achieve the level of freezing the sea in an instant.

But it is better because it is the ice formed by enlightenment, and all fire cannot thaw it at all.

Once the enemy is frozen, he can only melt little by little by his willpower in the cold ice, and this melting time, maybe a few minutes, a few days, or even a few years, depends on the spiritual power of people.

It can be said that it is a real heads-up magic skill.

It's a pity that Luffy can't even control the flame of fighting spirit and the flame of rigidity perfectly, let alone the more difficult step of the "Zero Point Breakthrough of Dead Qi. The original version".

Fortunately, the upgraded X Glove has already taught Luffy the most difficult step, the ability to control his heart, and the rest is just a matter of time.

Xia Qi flicked the cigarette ash, sighed softly, and said, "It's good to be young... Just go, it's really free..."The smile on the corner of his mouth instantly became so lonely, and his eyes became a little blurred, like a tree that had lost its leaves, so desolate that it was sad.

Too much time has passed, so long that I dare not count the days with my fingers.

Spuffing out the last puff of smoke, Xia Qi continued to ask, "Leaving the Chambord Islands, do you want a new world?"

Just enough to let Reilly coat your boat, this time I can charge you a little cheaper! ”

Turning over the thoughts in her mind, Xia Qi returned to her usual appearance, thinking about helping the two young people again.

It's just that, after listening to Xia Qi's words, Luffy said with some embarrassment: "Eh... New world, let's save it for later

We should be back in the middle of the sea this time......"

Luffy was a little hesitant, thinking about whether he wanted to tell the house about it, after all, the house that people kindly rented to you was lost in less than a month.

But if I told Aunt Xia...

Maybe another beating.

"Four seas?" Xia Qi looked at Luffy with some confusion and continued: "It's not so easy to go back to the four seas, how are you going to get through the windless zone?"

Luffy touched the back of his head, thought about it, and said with a slight smile: "I haven't thought about it yet, let's take a step and see a step..."

looked back at the clock hanging on the wall, and then said, "It's not early, Aunt Xia."

Robin and I went shopping, and we're going to leave today. ”

"Leaving so soon?" Xia Qi asked with some surprise, not understanding why Luffy was in such a hurry.

"yes... Time waits for no one. Luffy said in a somewhat indistinct tone.

With that, he stood up and patted Robin on the shoulder, signaling that it was time to leave.

Robin on the side had a flush on his face and a look of shame, which made Xia Qi look a little strange, and he didn't know what little secrets these two were doing.

Luffy, who walked out of the door of the bar, pretended to suddenly remember something, turned around and said, "That's right, Aunt Xia."

I've got something wrong with that house, sell me the house, and I'll pay you next time I come back. ”

Xia Qi tilted her head and looked at the two young people who said they were leaving, they seemed to have the same appearance as they were back then, and she didn't care much when she fell into the memory and said: "Forget it, Reilly is a good decorator, just let him go and see it when the time comes..."

"Really? Then it's a trouble for Uncle Reilly.

See you next time, Aunt Xia. After Luffy finished speaking, he left Xia Qi's blackmail bar without looking back.

"Have a nice trip." Xia Qi watched the two young figures drift away, and said with a smile: "It's really vigorous." ”

...

...

Walking on the street, Robin asked with some confusion, "Is it really okay not to tell Aunt Xia?"

Luffy said with some trepidation, "It's okay, it's okay, Uncle Reilly, they won't care about this... Hahahaha..."

In fact, he was scared of Aunt Xia's fist, and a house shouldn't be anything to Uncle Reilly, right, just come back next time to compensate them.

...

...

A few days later, Reilly was standing next to a pothole with a blank expression.

"Where's my house?"
