Chapter 101: Ten Years Is Not Empty
Robin is missing, the Merry is sentenced to death, the Straw Hats have never been hit so hard, and all of their nerves are like a tensed bow Xuan, and the crosshair of the bow is aimed at Cardo.
Cardo could understand that the departure of his companions was like a hammer that struck them in their hearts, completely shattering all reason, breaking them into pieces, and plunging them into chaos.
They suspect that Robin's disappearance is related to Cardo, which is not difficult to understand, because Sanji, Feite, Spring, Guoguo, Mimi and Yanyan are also missing, these are Cardo's partners, and these people are also extremely powerful partners, almost everyone in the Night Cat Pirates has a bounty of more than 100 million.
The people of the Straw Hat Pirates can't believe that this group of people who are strong enough to dominate the Great Passage will disappear silently, unless they are facing an irresistible enemy like a demon.
Does such an enemy exist?
At the very least, the Straw Hat Pirates don't believe that there are such powerful enemies in the Water City, enemies that almost leave them with no room for resistance.
Since the enemy no longer exists, the only possibility is for them to disappear on their own, or rather, the crew of the Night Cat Pirates to disappear with Robin, which is the biggest possibility in the eyes of the Straw Hats.
The Straw Hat Pirates' inference is very reasonable, Fei Te and others can only disappear by themselves, even Cardo thinks so, he knows the strength of his partners, in the sea area of the Water Capital, unless Qing Zhi takes matters into his own hands, no one can kill them silently.
It's a pity that even Cardo didn't know the reason for the disappearance of the non-special people, they disappeared abruptly as if they didn't exist in the first place, leaving not even the slightest clue.
Childish!
It was the only clue Cardo could think of, and he didn't know who else could make his companion disappear without a trace.
"Tearing your face?"
"Or does the Navy now think that it can easily defeat itself?"
Shaking his head, these ideas are impossible, the Navy does not dare to tear their faces with themselves, and they will not be idiots who think that they can easily defeat themselves.
But what else is possible?
The panic seemed to be contagious, and Cardo felt that he was also a little uncalm, and he actually thought about going to confront Qingzhi and asking him, what did the navy think, did it really succumb under the coercion of the Celestial Dragons?
At this moment, the dusk sun shone on the sparkling waterways of the water capital, reflecting a large area of crimson, making the water surface like a noble red wine, so gorgeous, so pure, or like flowing blood, spitting out boundless murderous aura.
Now is the perfect time to enjoy the sunset.
Cardo, however, was murderous, crossing countless scarlet rivers to Bruno's tavern.
A pub at night, like a bar in a metropolis, is never short of happy or apprehensive people who come here in search of momentary pleasures.
Not caring about Bruno, the barn's owner, Cardo walked straight up the stairs.
"Bruno, what's the matter with him, isn't your upstairs not open, why don't you let me in, because I don't have any money, no, I have to go up too, there must be beautiful women on it......"
A drunken drunkard, who seems to be a regular customer of Bruno, knows the rules here, and the top floor is never open to outsiders.
The drunkard staggered and walked up the stairs, and just as he held on to his handguard, he was held up by Bruno, who arrived quickly.
The hand on the drunkard's neck, with a slight force, the drunkard collapsed in his arms, and Bruno smiled at the rest of the bar: "This guy is drunk, it's my relative who just went up".
The people in the tavern laughed loudly and ignored it, believing that the upper floor was Bruno's private room, so no outsiders were allowed to go there. As for the drunkard who was knocked unconscious, this guy must have been drunk, how could Bruno knock the guest unconscious.
Calming down the people in the tavern, Bruno peeked upstairs, he wanted to go up and have a look, but his strength was not enough, I was afraid that the two above would be able to knock themselves away with their fingers, just like a wound with a dull pain in the abdomen, it was just a cigarette butt hit.
Follow the stairs and rush up in three or two steps.
The tall figure of the child, facing the direction of the red sun, in a goblet in his hand, most of the glass of red wine shook slightly, with a slight ripple, like a rose in full bloom, stretching his scarlet color.
"What a beautiful scenery, don't you want a drink?"
It seems to know that Cardo will come, next to the childish, there is another glass of red wine, full, where it is placed, no one has touched.
rushed over, ignoring the full glass of red wine, directly picked up the bottle, raised his head and drank it all.
"Plop"
Throw the dried bottle and it falls into the water, like refilling the red wine, filling the clear sea with a red sun.
"Damn, my companion is missing!"
grabbed the childish collar and lifted it hard, but Cardo was not tall enough, and even if he stood up straight, he couldn't lift him.
"They're not my companions, I don't know"
With a handful of Fei Kado's hand, Qingzhi straightened his collar and sat down again.
The two are not like mortal enemies, but have some tacit understanding of old friends.
Cardo knew that there was no need for Qingzhi to lie to himself, he really didn't make a move.
"I've known each other for ten years, when I asked you, why didn't you join the navy, you said you didn't like to accept control, refused my invitation, and later became a general, became a deterrent existence, no longer have to perform tasks often, and I have more free time, I often give myself holidays, tell myself, no longer pay attention to everything during the vacation, just like ordinary people, walk around, see many people, see a lot of things."
"I understand, I understand why Saron gave up his identity as a vice admiral at the beginning, for the sake of Robin and the navy as enemies, and why you refused my invitation, not because you were afraid of being disciplined, but because the navy is not worth your service for it, the current navy is too different from the navy I have seen before, in the Age of Discovery, Roger not only awakened the enthusiasm of pirates, but also awakened the hidden ugliness of the navy."
"In the navy back then, there were Vice Admiral Karp, Sengoku General, Vice Admiral Tsuru, Vice Admiral Jonathan, and Vice Admiral Gary, who fought to eliminate the pirates."
"In the current navy, there are Vice Admirals of Fighting Dogs, Admirals of Akainu, Vice Admirals of Ghost Spiders, and GP organizations, and they fight for absolute justice, or the justice that the Tenryu people advertise."
"In contrast, the gap is very large, not only the admirals of the navy have changed, but even the style of conduct has changed, it has become cruel, it has become extreme, and even they can easily launch a demon slaying order, destroying a kingdom, destroying an island, and thousands of lives"
"I understand a little why you refused my invitation, and now I'm tired and don't want to do the mission sent by the Navy, so I always find all kinds of reasons to excuse myself and get myself a lot of vacation."
"Now, I would love to be like you, to be a free and easy person, to do what I want, to have a large group of companions, to protect the cherished things, but unfortunately, I am the admiral of the navy, and I am responsible for it, and to this day, I still firmly believe that the navy will become the original navy again, not for justice, but for peace."
When he was a lieutenant general, he was not so lazy, and he would work hard to perform tasks in order to become a general, and he would also be puzzled by Karp's willingness to give credit to others and not want to be promoted to general.
Now he has become lazy and enjoys a moment of peace, every day of peace.
Because he knew that peace was gone, that the age of Whitebeard was coming to an end, and that what Roger had really awakened was coming to the surface, revealing its hideous countenance.
It was told for a long time, until the sun really went down and the shadows of the stars appeared in the sky, but Cado never moved, sitting there, obediently being a listener.
"Why, I'm still worried about your partner" A smile appeared on the face of the childish Iceberg: "Sure enough, after the precious thing is lost, anyone will lose their mind."
"Don't worry, it's impossible for the navy to make a move against your companions, and if you don't carry out the orders of the Draco, the navy will be scolded at most, but tearing your face with you, the navy will really usher in a disaster, a disaster even more terrifying than Whitebeard."
Qingzhi paused, and then said: "Of course, those guys in the navy are still thinking about testing it, if they don't really understand your strength, they will definitely not be willing to give up, after all, the lock lock fruit is not everyone's nemesis, just like a sword hero like Hawkeye, it can still cause you a lot of damage."
Cardo nodded, he actually knew that it couldn't be a childish move, but after his companions disappeared, he was suspected by the Straw Hats, and he wanted to find a confidant and chat.
The object of the chat, of course, is this admiral, a friend who has known each other for ten years.
Ten years of history, Cardo has not been empty.
PS: In the past, some book friends said that the lock lock fruit was garbage, but I kept holding back and didn't say it, how could the protagonist have the garbage fruit, just like Luffy's second and third gear, I also left the maximum effect of the lock lock fruit in the water capital This article revealed.
There are a lot of tips, I don't know if anyone can guess no, guess that there is a prize, and the post is at the top for a week.
