Chapter 16: First Sight
Harold lowered his head in frustration and muttered, "I knew, I knew, psychedelic powder can't quit!" Mahabais, who was on the side, saw a little more and said to him: "Don't worry, big brother, let's go to the famous doctor of the West Sea, Hogubak, he will definitely cure us!" ”
Regardless of the sad fat and thin duo next to him, Lu Li asked Cohen with some curiosity: "Is Richelieu so terrifying?" You'd rather die than fall into his hands. ”
Cohen's eyes were lost, and he muttered to himself in some fear, "You don't understand! It was a man who was cunning to the point of despicability, to the point of cruelty, who regarded strategy as a legitimate means of power, and cruelty as a necessary quality for governing the country. He will always be more cruel to his enemies than he is to him.
The king was overthrown by him, the queen mother was expelled by him, the queen was suppressed by him, the prince was exiled by him, the duke was executed by him, and the entire royal family and even the entire kingdom of Vasa were breathless under his oppression. In his hands, death is only the simplest kind! He's a monster! Devil! ”
Lu Li frowned, looking at Cohen, who was in fear and trembling, a little hateful and a little pitiful.
Moria snorted dissatisfiedly when he heard Cohen's evaluation of Richelieu, and said, "Lord Richelieu's greatness, you moths of the country will not understand!" There are so many countries in the West Sea, so many gangs, only we Vasa dare not set up a magistrate, and no gang dares to come to Vasa to make trouble! ”
Cohen nodded indifferently, glanced at the box in Lu Li's hand, and said, "It doesn't matter!" Defeated by the king, now that Richelieu has completely eradicated all the opponents in the Vasa Kingdom, he is naturally on top, and I, the loser, no matter what I say, is just the wail of the defeated dog! ”
As he spoke, Cohen struggled to get up and knelt on the ground, gasping for breath. Then he continued: "You only saw the good side of him for you, not the cruel side of others, I saw it. So I'd rather die than fall into his hands. ”
After saying this with difficulty, Cohen slammed headfirst into the angular reef in front of him, and Lu Li stretched out his hand, hesitate when he was about to catch him. Since he can't be let go, why do you have to rescue this person who is bent on death to face the next torture?
Moria was indignant, looking at the corpse that had broken his head and bleeding, but he didn't know what to say.
Lu Li, who came back to his senses, said to the fat and thin duo: "Since Moria promised to let you go, and Cohen also committed suicide, let's leave quickly, don't stay here anymore!" ”
The fat duo nodded, and walked into the distance with each other.
Moria didn't know what today's sudden kindness meant to him, in a world without land, he also defeated Ghost Sword Hao, and caught up with Cohen and his party, and killed Harold who had the Thorn Fruit and Nail Fruit during the fight, and Mahabis took one of the fruits in despair.
After more than a decade of refuge, Doflamingo, whose only request was to kill Moria, served Doflamingo for fourteen years, and during the War on the Top, Doflamingo almost fulfilled Mahabais's dream.
And the appearance of Lu Li's little butterfly has already rolled up a different storm, who can say what will happen in the future?
Carefully putting away the box in their hands, Lu Li and Moria walked towards the royal capital with Cohen's corpse.
"Old man Richelieu is a very good man, how can he be as cruel as he says?"
"It must be his own problem, are you right!"
"I'll tell you what Lord Richelieu did for Vasa....."
Moria kept babbling while walking, and couldn't bear to stop Lu Li, who had been fruitless two or three times, could only whistle and let Moria entangle. But in his heart, he admired Richeliu a lot, and it was really difficult for him to be able to tame Moria's words to this extent.
Fortunately, the seaside is not far from Wangdu, and it only took a short time for Lu Li, who was striding meteors, to get rid of Moria's entanglement, and there were already people waiting for them at the gate of the royal capital.
A thin old man stood in the doorway, with gray hair, a curly white mustache, a red priest's robe, and a black cane in his hand, smiling like a kind old man next door. Only the seriously revealed essence light and the guards standing straight on both sides can show his extraordinary.
Before he reached the gate of the city, Moria, who saw the old man from a distance, trotted all the way to the old man's side, hunched his waist, and whispered something to the old man, like a cat magnified a hundred times to the master.
Lu Li, who saw Moria's special form for the first time, was also a little nervous by the atmosphere, and strode up to the old man: "Hello, I'm Lu Li." ”
The old man looked up at the majestic Lu Li, lowered his head and coughed, and said slowly, "I'm Richelieu." ”
Lu Li was a little uncomfortable with this style of speaking, scratching his head, not knowing what to say next.
Fortunately, Richelieu sensed his embarrassment, and continued: "I heard my old buddy talk about you, and you are very good. He said you have something to ask me? ”
Without waiting for Lu Li's answer, Richelieu turned to himself and walked towards the city gate, and the guards on both sides also quickly expanded the road with neat steps.
Moria motioned to Lu Li, who was a little blindfolded, to follow the old man, and Lu Li walked a few steps quickly and followed the old man with Moria, left and right.
All the men knelt on their knees as the guards moved forward, and the streets were silent, save for the slow voice of the old man and the neat footsteps of the guards as they advanced.
"I heard you want to know the biggest mystery of this world, don't you?" Richelieu, who was walking ahead, was still so unhurried.
"Yes, I want to know the greatest mystery of this world." Hearing the topic that would help him go home, Lu Li also seemed very excited.
"The biggest secret? If you want to know the greatest mystery in the world, then you have the greatest power in the world, do you have the greatest power? Richelieu was still in no hurry.
Lu Li wanted to say that he had it, but he couldn't say it, looking around at the crowd that was still lying on the ground, Lu Li frowned. Even in this small country, there is a smile far beyond himself and Moria who is not worse than himself, and this "have" really doesn't know where to start.
Walked all the way in silence.
Following Richelieu all the way into the main hall of the palace, Lu Li didn't think of how to tell the mystery that he had the power to obtain and protect the world that he might not be in.
Richelieu did not wait for him to answer, and after motioning for Moria to leave on his own, he corrected the office papers on his desk.
