Bingba Island.

As an island adjacent to the Chambord Islands, it lacks the beauty of the Chambord Islands at all.

Snow abuse wind meal, piling up silver and jade, two words to describe this island.

This is a winter island that has been in the cold winter for many years.

In the harsh winter, dragging a long tail and reluctant to leave.

The snow-capped mountains stand high in the middle of the island, and the never-ending storm howls in the mountains, blowing the snow-capped mountains into ice and snow, leaving no living creatures with a single piece of heaven and earth.

Bingba Island Harbor.

It is completely different from the desolation and silence of the island, because of the proximity to the Chambord Islands, many merchants, slave hunters, pirates and even bounty hunters who have offended the big people in the Chambord Islands have fled here.

It is on this coast that people have successfully resisted the forces of nature to build a city dedicated to humanity, a city without sin.

Here, regardless of your previous status, you can qualify as a general resident.

Of course, if you have a job, or money.

The earth was covered with hoarfrost, dry and hard.

Luffy walked down the street, crunching as he stepped on the thick snow.

He carried two large bags full of women's clothes.

Yesterday it was so hot that the statue was detained in a steamer, but today it has turned into a snowstorm and dripping water into ice.

The weather on the Great Voyage is really changing.

Although this cold didn't have any effect on Luffy, Robin, who had not yet reached the monster level, shivered a little.

Therefore, Luffy is willing to become a full-time gentleman, and he accompanies Robin to visit clothing stores all over the city.

In fact, there are not many shops in the whole city, let alone luxury stores such as clothing.

Ordinary residents buy furs directly and then find tailors to make clothes at will.

It's hard to even have enough food and clothing, and who cares about beauty.

Luffy walked in front of him, and Robin looked happy, silently following him, like a little girl who was promised by her boyfriend to buy a brand-name bag.

In fact, Robin's happiness is far more than that, if you look closely, you can find that Robin is wearing a beautiful black ring on the middle finger of his right hand.

It all started one night half a month ago.

On the day Luffy and Doflamingo talked, after the sun was setting and sunbathing, Luffy enjoyed Robin's home-cooked meal and returned to his bedroom to prepare for the exciting lottery moment.

As soon as he entered the house, Luffy couldn't wait to give orders to the system. "System, list Robin's attributes."

The system only replied coldly and lightly: "Okay. 】

After that, Robin's list of attributes opens in front of Luffy.

Character: Nicole. Robin

Qualification: SS

Stamina: 246

Strength: 86

Dexterity: 180

Spirit: 600

"Six hundred..."

Luffy saw Robin's high mental attributes, but he didn't feel any joy.

Mental attributes are influenced by only two factors.

One is his own talent, and the other is his own experience.

The destruction of his hometown, the death of those around him, and all kinds of greedy betrayals, again and again, fell a hammer in Robin's young heart, and he was stunned to forge a fragile heart into what it is now.

Luffy let out a long sigh and said silently in his heart, "I won't let you suffer anymore in the future." ”

Luffy, who was suddenly in a bad mood, only wanted to complete all this as soon as possible, and said to the system succinctly: "System, start extracting Robin's exclusive props." ”

[Yes.] 】

After the system answered coldly, a familiar large turntable appeared in front of Luffy, and there were still a lot of strange things on it.

This time Luffy wasn't curious, and the roulette wheel spun automatically.

Luffy simply closed his eyes, anyway, it wasn't him who controlled every draw.

Even if you can see something good, it's better to wait quietly for the final result.

【Ding! The host has obtained the "Penglie Ring - Ring of Clouds", which has been placed in the backpack, please check. 】

"Penglie?"

After Luffy heard the sound of the system's ascension, he was stunned for a moment, looked at the cotton gloves placed next to the bed, and muttered, "Penglie Ring, isn't that the same power system as my [X Glove]?"

However, I haven't heard of any specific function of the ring..."

Open the backpack and bring up the properties of the ring to check it out.

[Penglie Ring - Ring of Clouds: After wearing, you can use the attribute of clouds - proliferation. (In the world of governesses, the ring that can only be worn by Pengle's strongest guardian means to become a lonely floating cloud who is not bound by anything and guards the family alone.) ）】

Luffy looked at the ring lying in the palm of his hand, the ring body was pure black, with a silver-white purple gold flower pattern, and the upper and lower sides were bordered by silver unknown metal, and the ring was in the shape of a small shield, depicting a rolling cloud.

"Is it value-added? It should be quite suitable for Robin. Luffy thought to himself.

Looking at the time, it was still early.

At this time, Robin must still be reading in the room. Thinking so, Luffy came to Robin's door with the ring in hand.

There was a gentle knock on the door.

Luffy asked, "Robin, are you there, can you open the door?"

There was still some noise in the room, but it was completely quiet after Luffy's voice appeared.

"Huh?" Luffy frowned suspiciously, knocked on the door again, and asked with some concern, "Are you there, Robin?"

Is something wrong?"

Robin in the room hurriedly replied in a panic, "It's okay, it's okay, Mr. Luffy."

Wait a minute, wait a minute!"

There was a sigh from inside the house, and Luffy could hear the people inside hurrying through his ears.

Luffy, who didn't know why, stood quietly at the door and waited.

After a long time, the door was opened.

I saw Robin wearing a knee-high sweater, his hair was wet, and he said with a red smile: "I'm sorry, I was just taking a shower, what's the matter?"

In the hurry, Robin had not yet dried his body, and the sweater was tightly attached to his body, showing an even figure, delicate and straight, revealing two slender and white jade legs.

Because his body is slightly taller than Luffy, he bows slightly when he speaks, and with that smile that washes lead, it is touching and pitiful.

Even Luffy trembled in his heart, bewildered by this shy moon, soft light, and beauty.

Fortunately, Luffy, who was a straight man of steel, came back to his senses in an instant under the effect of up to a thousand spiritual powers.

Seeing Luffy's gaze change from blurry to clear, it only took two seconds, and Robin's eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of loss, as if he didn't get the desired effect.

He just stared at me for a second, though! Absolutely!' Robin secretly thought about this in his heart, and once again a smile appeared on his face that had not changed for ten thousand years.

"What's the matter? Luffy. Robin took the opportunity to ask again, pretending that Luffy had just been lost for a long time.

Luffy didn't care, and in Robin's surprised and disbelieving gaze, he slowly took out a ring.

The moon is in the sky, bright and gentle.

Under the moonlight, the sea water glows with silver light, and the soft moonlight falls on the surface of the sea, setting off a warm and harmonious night.

"Robin, this is the Ring of Clouds.

Hopefully, when you put it on, you can no longer be restrained like a cloud.

And I will be your sky.

Hold up a piece of sky for you, hold up a sky that allows you to soar freely. ”

In a flat but firm tone, Luffy recited the sustenance of the cloud to Robin, and his eyes stared at Robin's eyes without blinking, looking at each other.

I saw Robin's eyelashes trembling slightly, and slowly, he closed his eyes again, and the moist corners of his eyes seemed to be about to slide down tears, but he didn't want to cry at this beautiful moment.

Slowly stretched out his right hand and motioned for Luffy to put it on for himself, and said in a slightly crying voice with a smile on his face, "Thank you, Luffy..."

In the hazy night under the moonlight, what flows in my heart is no longer confusion, but longing, sustenance, and ... An indescribable feeling.

"The sea is boundless... One day you will surely meet a partner who will protect you. People are not destined to be lonely in this world... Terry hee-hee-hee. ”

At night, Robin sat on the bed with his knees crossed, looking at the ring in his hand through the starlight outside the window.

"I've met the person you said, Saron..."
