Chapter 154: The Way Out (I)
If you want to invade the deepest part of someone's memory, there is a rather simple way, and that is to bind up with what she cherishes and reluctantly reluctant.
For example, it is almost impossible for a six-year-old child to remember the strange corn that suddenly appeared in front of her one day, and we have never seen a whale together, but what if he is very targeted to take the other person to his mother's grave for the first time?
Shirahoshi couldn't forget Princess Otohime, so she couldn't forget this trip to the underwater forest, so it was impossible to forget who protected her to this place.
Assuming the mermaid's memory was only seven seconds, she couldn't have forgotten it.
Of course, Qiubai's things are limited to this, and the princess becomes a pleasant little partner is his first purpose, as for taking the princess away or something, first of all, it is impossible for the princess to leave Fish-Man Island in her subjective consciousness, not to mention following someone like Qiubai who has just met, if he does this, the goodwill that he has built up will immediately deteriorate, not to mention that the princess seems to have no power to resist, in fact, she can already dominate the sea kings inadvertently, what if she summons a group of deep-sea thugs as soon as she is excited?
Secondly, even if there is a case and the princess is mentally retarded and follows Qiubai away, then it is impossible for them to leave Fish-Man Island, and then King Neptune and his Aquaman army will definitely pour out, and the name of the Great Knight of the Sea is not called in vain.
Therefore, moderation is the best choice, so that over time, this short experience and ignorant kindness will ferment into an indestructible little friendship.
And Shirahoshi's friend is naturally Aquaman's friend...... It's a fairly typical "Doflamingo" approach, which is just a matter of getting it out of hand, but how can this make Poseidon stand with him at some point in the future?
The murmuring of the sea forest seemed to have not changed in many years, and the young princess's emotions had long since calmed down, and she hugged her knees...... Sitting on a rock, there is a fitting silence.
And what about Qiubai? At this time he was standing on the "shoulders of giants".
His head first turned in a certain direction, and after discovering something, he turned back again, "Then Princess Shirahoshi, the magic journey has come to an end, and the person who greeted you has arrived." ”
In the past, such a large lump of sharks passed through the sky, and it was impossible for there to be no sightings, so it was only a matter of time before King Neptune was found here, and now the other party's actions actually made Qiubai feel that the reaction speed was a little insufficient.
"Is Lord Qiubai leaving?" Shirahoshi asked.
"Well, my adventure will continue, but sooner or later I will return to see the princess again...... So today's events, please take it as a secret between the two of us......"
If King Neptune knew what was going on, he wouldn't have been able to get out of Fish-Man Island so easily, so it would have been best if the princess had kept it a secret.
But time will not tolerate Qiubai to make a one-by-one explanation, in order to prevent Van der Duncan's attack, he waited until the Sea King's army was in front of him before he escaped, so if he said a few more words, he would have to meet with King Neptune.
So when the princess turned her head to look over her shoulder, she found that the person above had disappeared, and even if she hurriedly turned to look behind her, she was not half of her figure again.
Only the "Absolute Defense" shield guarding her side already had a gift at hand, indicating that what she had just experienced was not out of her own imagination.
What's more embarrassing is that the children's books given by Qiubai are all made in human size, which is not commensurate with the mermaid princess whose body size is comparable to that of the giant clan, and the handwriting is too small, even if she compares the myopia of her eyes to Monet, she probably can't read these words clearly...... Maybe she needs to find a full-time reader.
However, after such a "abduction incident", it is thought that King Neptune will also have a full-time person to take care of her.
By the time the princess turned around, she could already see her father rushing from the front.
"White Star?!"
Well, the status quo might have made him a little excited, and while it didn't seem like there was a third party here other than Shirahoshi and her pets, the blazing defenses looked like they were putting the princess in a cage.
Is there a tired fisherman who dares to shoot at the princess?
…………
On the other hand, after Qiubai left the mermaid princess's side, he did not rush back to the original place, but first traveled a distance on the ground, and then began to move towards the sky.
By this time, their ship had already started, so he had to meet the ships on their way out of Fish-Man Island.
"Huh? What's going on? ”
However, when Qiubai returned to the boat, he found that Luo was helping the bleeding Cavendish to bandage him...... Thankfully, I came back on time, otherwise I would have been left on this island.
Because it seems that Qiubai has forgotten the existence of this person...... Is it because Cavendish doesn't have a strong sense of existence?
"Who knows? I just had the feeling of being hit by something falling from the sky. Cavendish was also very depressed, he didn't have the memory of the awakening of the dual personality, and he could only roughly know that he had run out to cut people again.
"It can't be a meteorite, right? Are you unlucky enough to be hit by a meteorite at 10,000 meters in the deep sea? Qiu Bai was joking about himself.
"Is the visit to Ryugu Castle finished?" At this time, Luo asked meaningfully.
Except for Monet, who "sees is believing", Qiu Bai did not explain in detail to others what his trip to Dragon Palace City was for, but he knew with his toes that he couldn't just visit.
"Well, how do you say that...... A little disappointed, Dragon Palace City is full of men, and there are no imaginary beautiful mermaids everywhere. ”
"Really? I thought you were going to kidnap the legendary mermaid princess? ”
"Hehehe, how is that possible." Qiubai's sneer was a little weak.
"Speaking of which, Monet, do you have a clue about the kind of island you're looking for?" He didn't dwell too much on the topic of princesses, and turned to Monet and asked.
"Well, there are quite a few that are eligible, but the most suitable one should be a place called Vortex Island at the junction of the Terror Delta Sea and the Windless Zone."
"It's a vast, inaccessible place, with a harsh natural environment, where large sea king-like beasts dominate the island, and it's surrounded by whirlpools and serpentine currents, making it almost impossible to reach."
Although Monet found a suitable place according to Qiubai's request, she still did not know why she was looking for such a place.
