"You said you lost your parents when you were six years old, is that true?"

Carl walked on the way back to the pirate ship, leading Diamanti and Seignior behind him, and after thinking for a long time, he finally asked Cirno beside him.

"It's true." Qi Luno's answer was light, and there was no trace of sadness on her little face, as if she was telling the story of someone else's family.

Karl didn't press further.

In this sea of chaos, there are too many tragic families.

The previous generation of One Piece Gore · In order to deal with the world government, D. Roger did not hesitate to gamble his own life to contribute to the birth of the era of pirates.

But it was Roger who facilitated this new chaotic world, which also caused the destruction of countless innocent civilians.

Was Roger a hero or a sinner?

Carl didn't know.

Even if it were given to historians on Earth, it would be difficult for them to come up with a unified answer to a topic like this.

Karl suddenly thought of Qin Shi Huang.

But Roger, this guy is far worse than Qin Shi Huang.

Although Qin Shi Huang had merits and demerits, he personally unified the Warring States.

Roger...... Forget it, I still don't want these things to be a thing of the past.

"Boats? What about the ship? ”

Looking at the empty harbor in front of him, Señor's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide, and even his sunglasses almost slipped off his face.

"yes, what about the ship?"

Karl's tone was cold, and he turned to stare at Seigor with a shocked face.

"I told these guys...... These bastards! I'm not afraid of death?!! Sooner or later, I will kill them with my own hands! ”

Señor was furious, and he didn't know if it was because of his inner fear of Carl's brutal methods or because of the fact that his men had betrayed him.

"Mr. Karl, I... I... I didn't mean to...... "Seigno is not afraid of death, but if Master Diamanti loses an arm because of his mistake, he will never forgive himself for the rest of his life!"

"Say, what should I do?"

Karl stared at Diamanti and Seigno, who were tied together, but Señor knelt on the ground with a puff: "Mr. Karl, as long as you don't hurt Master Diamanti, I am willing to accept all punishments." ”

"Okay, then I'll ......"

"Mr. Karl, I have a way to get them out of here, all I need is a small fishing boat."

Karl was about to teach Señor a lesson, but Cirno suddenly stepped forward to interrupt him.

"Do you have a way? A fishing boat? Little girl, don't talk nonsense, going to sea is not a game! If you have a fishing boat, you may not be able to carry even a wave. ”

"Wait a minute!" Kirunor smiled mysteriously at Karl before running to the location of the seaside harbor.

The little girl took a deep breath, put her hands in front of her mouth in a trumpet shape, faced the sea, and called out loudly: "Erin—Erin—"

"Erin? Is it her friend? It sounds like she's still a girl. Karl muttered to himself, led Diamanti and Seignol behind him, and slowly walked to the beach.

It didn't make any sense for him to ask Diamanti's arm, it was just a threat, and since Cirno said that she had a way to take her away, Karl simply forgot about the previous events and was too lazy to waste time on boring things.

"Who is Irene?" Standing behind Kiruno, looking at the endless calm sea in front of him, Carl couldn't help but ask.

"You've met." Cirno stopped shouting, and she turned around, her bright eyes shining with a hint of mystery.

"I've seen it?" Carl was a little confused, he didn't remember meeting a girl named Erin, "You can't be mistaken......"

Rumble!

As if the sound of a cannonball exploding in the sea suddenly broke the silence of the small port, a high column of water rose into the sky, splashing in the sunlight and shimmering in a colorful light. The red-haired girl stood in front of the water column, and the picture seemed to freeze for a moment.

"Meow—"

With a melodious and crisp cat meow, Carl's eyes lit up, and he recognized the behemoth emerging from the sea: "Sea cat? It's you! ”

"Meow—"

The sea cat smiled and waved his hand at Carl, and it leaned closer to the shore, allowing Kiruno to affectionately ** its soft, white body.

"She's Erin, and we've known each other for a long time." Kirino smiled and introduced the two parties, "Erin, this is Mr. Carl, and we will be new friends in the future." ”

"No wonder you little girl can run to this pineapple island, there are sea cats...... Well, I've got Erin to help, and now I've finally figured it out. ”

With the help of Erin the sea cat, going to sea is no longer a problem.

Carl bought a small fishing boat in the village, dropped Diamanti and Señor on top of the fishing boat, and then tied the fishing boat to Erin's body and sailed all the way to the island of Luster.

Carl and Cirno sat on top of Erin's head, and behind them were the small boats carrying Diamanti and Señor, which were so fast that the splash even doused Diamanti and Señor, two landlubbers.

"Slow down, Erin, don't worry, the water in the fishing boat will be full in a while, it will be a bad thing." Carl patted Erin lightly on the head, and Erin was smart enough to slow down.

Karl breathed a sigh of relief at first, and then raised the doubts in his heart: "Qiluno, why are you helping me again and again? We weren't familiar with it before, were we? ”

"I've been wandering alone for six years, and I've seen all kinds of people, but only Mr. Karl, you don't feel the same way to me. There is a unique temperament in you, as if you don't belong to this era of pirates. I can't say exactly, but this feeling does exist and should not be an illusion. ”

Kirunor stared at the sea in the distance, and there was a faint color of anticipation in her ruby eyes, "I don't want to wander anymore, so I want to join you." ”

"Hahahaha, little girl, you are so naïve, we are not a loving family. When you join us, you may experience more danger than when you are wandering, and even if you are a little girl, there is no one to protect you. ”

"I know, when I saw you take Nicole Robin in, I knew what you wanted to do." Kirunor turned her head and gave Carl a shallow smile.

"Do you know what I'm going to do......"

Carl muttered to himself, he thought of Nicole Robin, and then of Klockdahl, and a terrible plan crept into his mind.

"Qiluno, if I want to implement a plan in order to achieve a certain goal, but this plan will involve many innocent people, do you think this plan still makes sense?"

"What kind of goal?"

"A big goal." Karl's answer was somewhat ambiguous.

In fact, no matter how Qi Luno answered, he would do it, but some things were really uncomfortable to hold in his heart all the time.

"If the goal is to achieve great things, then why bother with whether you will get your hands dirty? Whether it's an admiral or a pirate king, who has never been involved in an innocent person? ”
