Chapter 034: Flickering and lame
"I hate lies!"
After listening to Nicole Robin's explanation of his experience, Carl sneered and straightened up to lean against another tree.
At this time, Robin was still tightly bound by the vines summoned by the mysterious woman, this woman's ability is somewhat similar to Mr.3's candle fruit, and the actual effect that has been caused will not disappear with the fainting or death of the ability.
Robin, who fell to the ground, looked up at the strange man in front of her, her brain racing.
Over the years, she has encountered countless dangers, large and small, and each time she has been able to escape death with her tenacity and wisdom. And this time, she still believes in it.
"Your name is Nicole Robin." Carl thought for a moment and decided to use the information he had in his previous life to scare the girl in front of him.
Hearing that the other party actually said her name so lightly, Robin's heart suddenly chuckled, but she was quickly relieved: maybe the woman was heard by this person when she mentioned her name just now, after all, he should have been hiding in the grass.
"You have the title of 'Son of the Devil'."
"Huh." Robin smiled lightly, and it wasn't a secret.
"Your hometown is called 'O'Hara...... It used to be the cradle of scholars. ”
Hearing Carl say this, Robin couldn't keep his composure. Only a handful of people know what happened in that land.
"Do you want to hear a few other terms? For example, 'Vice Admiral', 'Demon Slaying Order', 'Blank Age'......"
"Enough!" When these scars in his heart were ruthlessly uncovered by Carl, Robin's emotions finally exploded, and his dark crystal eyes overflowed with crystal tears: "What do you know? You don't know anything! The tragedies that happened in those years, those innocent lives, what qualifications do you have to mention their experiences, woo......"
Robin is not as downsly as she is twelve years later, she still has good expectations for the future, and at the same time, it is even more difficult to bear the scars of the past.
"You're right, I don't know anything." Looking at Robin, who was crying, Carl's expression didn't change at all, "And I don't want to know." In addition to that, I'd like to tell you a little bit else, so ah, Miss Robin, may we sit down and talk about it quietly? ”
The black knife flashed, and the vines on Robin's body broke at root.
"Well, don't try to use your powers to sneak up on me. That woman's body is still lying there, and you must understand that I am not a good old man who knows how to pity the jade. Seeing Robin cross his arms over his chest, Carl pointed in the direction of the mysterious woman.
"What do you want to say?" Robin gritted his teeth, and finally put his hands down, she had already seen the strength and character of this man, she would definitely not be able to beat it, and he couldn't run away, and he was able to learn so many secrets about himself, which also made Robin more curious about Carl in his heart.
"I'll write you a few words!" After a pause, Carl picked up a branch and wrote "Nico Robin" on the ground using simplified Chinese characters.
"What kind of text is this? Why do I know some and I don't? At first, Robin thought that Carl wanted to write ancient characters, but when she saw a few strange words, she finally let go of her heart, but because of the desire for knowledge in her heart, Robin's heart was filled with curiosity.
"It's an ancient script that originated from an empire called the Great Qing Dynasty." Carl sees that he has succeeded in piquing Robin's interest, so he unceremoniously begins to make things up.
"Ancient texts? The Qing Empire? Are there any of these things? Robin was quite confident in her knowledge reserves, but she really didn't have the slightest impression of it, "It can't be your nonsense, right?" ”
"You see this kind of writing is horizontal and vertical, all in the shape of a square, can I make it up by myself?" Carl originally wanted to write traditional characters, but he couldn't, but he thought about it, and in order to increase his persuasion, he wrote the names of the other members of the Straw Hat Pirates on the ground in Chinese Simplified.
"You have some truth in saying that......" Robin carefully observed the Chinese characters on the ground, and suddenly felt that this kind of writing actually had a unique charm.
"This Qing Empire was originally a very prosperous country. However, it was the last few kings who were a little incompetent, which led to the failure of the country's military power to develop strongly. So hundreds of years ago, this Qing Empire was defeated by the combined armies of the other eight kingdoms, and even the territory was divided by others......" Carl adapted the story he saw in the history textbook and told Robin, "So I suspect that the fall of the Qing Empire is likely to be inextricably linked to that blank history." ”
Carl remembers that there was a speculation on the Internet about the blank history in his previous life that it was "the fall of a powerful kingdom", so it would be best if his story was correct, and if it was wrong, by the time it was exposed, the sea might have changed its owner long ago.
"But what do you mean by telling me?" Robin was curious about Carl's story, but she couldn't figure out why Carl was telling her these things.
"Do you want to escape the fate of being hunted by other people?" Carl stopped telling the story, but turned to stare into Robin's eyes, which had gradually regained their composure.
"Hehe, I advise you not to joke, you can't afford to provoke someone who wants my life."
"Wrong!" Not only did Carl not have the slightest fear, but the smile on his face became more and more confident: "It's not a one-sided thing to mess with, and there are too many people on this sea who can't be provoked." ”
"Miss Robin, the reason why I am sharing that story with you is to tell you that we still have one thing in common, we both want to explore a certain truth."
The girl Robin's personality is still a little shy, she avoided Carl's gaze, but Carl didn't care, he turned to look at the sea in the distance, and continued: "I am actually also a fate who was hunted down by the navy, pirates and various people. Miss Robin, running away is never the answer, and the best defense is offense. ”
"Come and do something earth-shattering with me, and I'm going to tell everyone on this sea that they've messed with someone they couldn't afford to mess with! The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and this first step starts from the West Sea, and this first shot is directed at the Capone family! ”
Robin is not a person with big ambitions, and Carl's words really don't necessarily move her.
But Carl's next words left her with no choice, "That woman wanted to capture you just now, and I killed her, which is considered as a time for me to save you; And now I could have given you to the World Government, but I was going to spare you, so you owe me another life. As far as I know, Miss Robin isn't a person who doesn't repay her kindness, right? ”
"Sounds like I can't say no." Robin thought briefly for a moment, and then smiled helplessly, "But what can I do?" ”
Nicole Robin began wandering alone in the dark at the age of eight, and only met Luffy the Straw Hat at the age of twenty-eight, which has proven that she has enough abilities.
"Let's start with the identity of this woman, Miss Robin, I don't believe you know anything about her."
Carl turned around with a confident smile on his face.
He finally fooled Nicole Robin into a cripple, and the next step was to sell wheelchairs.
