Chapter Seventy-Four: Happiness
Between the Island of Justice and the Gate of Justice there is a harbor called the Bridge of Hesitation, which is used to escort prisoners and for warships to dock. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
At this time, a piece of the bridge deck has been cut and dug up, and the missing stone has been built into a simple seat by Jing Tian, on which he and Robin are sitting side by side.
Not far away, on a seat made of solid ice, the pheasant sat on it with his legs crossed with a sleepy face, his right arm resting on the armrest of the seat and supporting his cheek, and his half-open eyes revealed a helpless look, looking at the distant Justice Island.
And the figure of the yellow ape was not here, maybe the defeat was too ugly, the yellow ape had no face to stay, and even refused Jing Tian to treat him, and flew back to the naval headquarters directly with his ability after the fight.
Smack.
With a soft sound, Jing Tian covered the wooden box in his hand and handed it to Robin next to him.
"How? The bet on the Straw Hats seems to have been won by me. Jing Tian turned his head, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned and said to the pheasant.
"Hey......" The pheasant sighed helplessly, looking at the many warships that were shelling Justice Island in the distance, and shook his head speechlessly.
Crunch β
There was a screeching sound of metal grinding, and a heavy portal suddenly opened at one end of the hesitant bridge, and Spendham's embarrassed figure ran out quickly.
"Yes, ouch!" As soon as he ran out of the metal door, Spandam suddenly saw Jing Tian and the others, and hurriedly stopped in surprise, but he didn't grasp the balance of his body, and suddenly a 'big horse' fell to the ground.
"According to the agreement, the life of this idiot is mine." Jing Tian reminded the pheasant.
"Can ......"
"No discussion" Jing Tian immediately interrupted, squinted at the pheasant and said, "Or are you going to regret it?" β
"After all, he belongs directly to the world government...... Forget it...... Pheasant shook his head and got up, and said to Jing Tian: "Is the phone bug that I contacted before still with me?" β
Jing Tian looked at Robin, and Robin nodded slightly.
"So be it, I'll contact that number before the war starts." After the pheasant finished speaking, he walked directly to the edge of the bridge, and then jumped down.
There was a large piece of ice floe on the sea below, and the pheasant landed on it, then picked up the bicycle on the ice, stepped on it, and left the place directly, heading in the direction of the Gate of Justice.
"It's interesting." Jing Tian watched the pheasant leave, then turned his head and smiled at Robin, raised his hand and pointed at Spandam, who was limp on the ground, and said, "I'll leave it to you." β
Robin bit his lip and whispered, "Thank you......"
Standing up, Robin walked towards Spandham, raised his hands and crossed them in front of his chest as he went, and whispered, "Six rounds of flowers!" β
There was a burst of petals, and the next moment, six arms suddenly grew out of Spandam's body, causing Spandam to cry out in terror.
"Slap combo!" Robin drank softly again, and as the words fell, Spendham's six arms immediately waved rapidly.
Bang bang bang!
The continuous slaps kept slapping Spandham's face, making Spandham, who was only an ordinary person, extremely painful, and he didn't even have a chance to scream, so he could only snort through his nose.
He slapped for a minute, until he slapped Spandham's cheek high and swollen like a pig's head, at which point Robin stopped his abilities.
"No need to keep your hands on." Jing Tian reminded him in the back.
Robin nodded slightly, and in silence he used his power to raise many arms again, growing out of Spandham's body.
"Hanging!" Robin drank lightly.
"Ahh
Click! Click! Click-
More than a dozen arms on Spandam's body exerted force at the same time, either twisting Spandam's limbs, or breaking his neck and lumbar vertebrae.
In the terrible scream, Spandam's body twisted into twist in an instant under Robin's ability, and few joints on his body were intact.
"Ahh
Spendham still screamed with strength, and it was clear that even if Robin had been reminded, he still hadn't done a dead move, and it was unknown whether Robin wanted to torture the other party or if he was going to say goodbye to the dark methods of the past.
Footsteps sounded, Jing Tian slowly walked to Robin's side, slowly stretched out his hand, and hugged Robin in his arms.
"Hmm......" A slight choking sound sounded, and the tearful Robin suddenly buried his head in Jing Tian's chest, his shoulders trembled slightly, and tears quickly wet Jing Tian's placket.
Gently patting Robin's shoulder, Jing Tian grabbed Spandam's right hand from afar, and the next moment, a long knife on Spandam's back suddenly flew up and flew into Jing Tian's hand through the air.
"Spendham." Jing Tian looked at the inhuman-shaped Spandam, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go to hell and wait first, it won't be long before I will take that dog of yours. father, sent to reunite with you. β
"No, no...... Help me......" Spendham's face was devastated, and he looked at Jing Tian with a pleading look in his eyes.
Jing Tian didn't move, slowly raised his foot, and then quickly kicked forward.
A foot wind flew out and slashed through Spandam's waist with a 'snort', pushing Spandam's body into the sea.
'Seeing and hearing the domineering' sensed that Spandam was sinking into the sea, Jing Tian retracted his perception, patted Robin on the shoulder lightly again, and said softly: "Okay, now that the enemy has been resolved, it won't be long before the remaining one is gone." β
"Thank you......" Robin's voice was still a little choked.
"Do you want me to destroy the 'Demon Slayer Order' fleet in front?" Jing Tian asked softly.
"No ......" Robin shook his head, finally raising his face, his eyes red.
Boom β
There was a loud noise, and the Justice Tower in the distance was suddenly smashed from the inside by a very huge fist, and in Jing Tian's 'domineering' perception, Rob Lucci's aura suddenly became weak, obviously, the battle between Luffy and Rob Lucci was finally decided.
Expanding the perception range of 'seeing and hearing domineering', Jing Tian suddenly looked to the left side of the island, and slightly stared at his eyebrows and whispered: "It's ...... coming."
"What's coming?" Robin asked softly as he raised his hand to wipe the tears from his face.
"Merry...... The Straw Hats' Pirate Ship ......"
"Has anyone come to their rescue?" Robin took the initiative to find a topic, wanting to dilute the sadness in his heart.
"No, it's Mei Li who ...... herself" Jing Tian sighed slightly, and then briefly explained the situation.
"I can't imagine that the record in the book is true." Robin was surprised: "There really is a ship elf"
"Look." Jing Tian turned his head and looked at the warship in front of him that was closing the judicial tower, and said softly, "This is not a common sight. β
Robin nodded slightly, glanced at Jing Tian's arm around her waist, then blushed slightly, and turned his head to look at the Justice Tower......
Rob Luci, as the main combat force, has failed, the fleet of the Demon Slayer Order immediately surrounded the Justice Tower, and turned the guns one after another, and it didn't take long for the cannon fire to roar, and a large number of cannonballs hit the Justice Tower, not caring about Rob Luqi's life or death.
Jing Tian squinted slightly, but the 'Seeing and Hearing Domineering' sensed the situation over there, so he didn't move.
A round of artillery fire destroyed the Justice Tower, but Luffy is a rubber man and is not afraid of artillery fire, so there was no accident after a round of attacks, but after the Justice Tower was destroyed, Luffy's weak figure lying on the ground was exposed.
The Straw Hats were fighting with the Navy Soldiers, but all of them were suffering from serious or minor injuries, and under the constant siege of the Navy Soldiers, everyone in the Straw Hats showed fatigue, and the attack became less and less effective.
Not long after, suddenly a female voice sounded in the hearts of everyone, making everyone on the battlefield stunned, thinking that there was an auditory hallucination.
But Usopp of the Straw Hats saw something, and couldn't help but raise his head in tears and shouted: "Jump into the sea!" Everybody jumpedβ"
Jing Tian's arm was slightly grasped, but Robin saw the scene over there, and in contrast to the warship, the small figure of the Merry automatically sailed to the bottom of the island.
"Jumpβ"
The excited shouts of Jenna and the others were faintly heard, and then, the Straw Hats jumped off the island one after another, and Luffy was also captured by Franky with a mechanical arm.
The Merry was windless, its sails bulging, and it turned its bow on its own, passing through the gap between the warships, and quickly headed for the Gate of Justice.
It was followed by artillery fire all the way, but most of the shells were dodged by the Merry itself, and even if there were a few shells that missed, they were dealt with by Sanji and Sauron, and in this way, the Merry soon came to the side of the 'Bridge of Hesitation'.
"Robin, you leave with them first, and I'll do something." Jing Tian reminded quickly.
Robin was slightly stunned, but didn't ask much, and immediately nodded in response.
Jing Tian handed Robin the long knife he had taken from Spendham, and then reached out and sucked the 'Giant God Soldier' placed on the side of the stone chair and the two boxes containing the 'Devil Fruits', and handed them to Robin as well.
Then, Jing Tian put his arm around Robin and threw Robin towards the Merry.
At the exclamation of the Straw Hats, Robin's body crossed the sea surface of more than thirty meters and landed lightly on the deck of the Merry.
Putting down the crossed arms, Robin canceled the intention of using the fruit, glanced back at Jing Tian, and then smiled at Luffy and the others: "Hello, congratulations on successfully saving your companion and successfully escaping." β
"It's ...... you"
The Straw Hats began to express their surprise......
On the other side, Jing Tian strode towards the edge of the 'Bridge of Hesitation', and then jumped onto a sailboat that was slightly smaller than the Merry.
This ship is a lifeboat 'borrowed' from those Demon Slayer Warships with the help of the Pheasant's opening, and can be easily controlled by a single person.
Because of the headwind, Jing Tian did not raise the sails, but walked to the stern of the boat, and began to row the huge oars, facing the direction of the Demon Slayer Fleet, towards the side of the Justice Tower.
The Demon Slayer ordered the fleet to know the ship, and also knew that Jing Tian was with the Pheasant General just now, so no one came to stop him, and let Jing Tian dock the ship on the back island of Justice Island.
Stepping off the boat, Jing Tian ignored the surrounding naval soldiers who were 'landing to search for survivors and mending their knives', and instead flew up and flew in the direction of Nakajima.
Not long after, Jing Tian suddenly turned around in the air, and his figure rushed towards the ground quickly.
Boom!
Without the sound of landing, Jing Tian fell behind a huge piece of building wreckage.
"It's you!"
There were several people hiding here, and a few of the 'CP9' were here, but only Bruno, who had a horn-haired haircut, was still awake, and the others were all unconscious.
"Why don't you bring them into your fruit space?" Jing Tian looked at the air door that was instantly opened by Bruno and asked softly.
"What are you going to do!" Bruno moved slowly, standing in front of his unconscious companion, watching Jing Tian with great vigilance.
"Peace of mind, I have no plans to harm you, but I want to save you." Jing Tian spread out his hands to soothe Bruno, and then said, "What is the principle of your fruit ability?" How do you get to where you want to be? β
Bruno didn't answer, still staring at Jing Tian warily.
Sighing slightly, Jing Tian looked at the 'air gate' behind Bruno, and quickly realized: "I see, inside the fruit space, there is a translucent field of vision......
"What the hell do you want! We've lost to the Straw Hats! Your bet with the pheasant is over! Bruno snorted in a deep voice, and there was no longer any respect when he called the pheasant.
"So, do you know where you are now?" Jing Tian pointed out the wreckage of the building with his right hand: "Those naval soldiers outside are not planning to save you, their duty is to find the fish that have slipped through the net on the island and then kill them." β
Bruno was silent, looking at his expression, obviously aware of the situation of the Demon Slaying Order.
"Your chief has been killed by me, but you heard that broadcast before, and he has given up on you, and everyone on this island of justice." Jing Tian said seductively: "That is to say, even if you find a way to return to the world government, you don't have any name, to put it bluntly, you have been removed from the world government, and in order to silence you, not to expose the dark side of the world government, the world government will hunt you down......"
"What the hell are you going to say!" Bruno roared resentfully, he understood what Jing Tian said, and he knew the style of the world government better than Jing Tian.
"I want to save you." Jing Tian smiled: "To be honest, whether it is in terms of strength or in terms of the justice that you have always been stubborn about, I appreciate you very much. β
"You ......" Bruno slightly fluted.
"Come on my boat." Jing Tian finally said the main purpose of this trip, and said with a confident smile: "If you want to escape the pursuit of the World Government, I can protect you; If you want to uphold justice, you can continue to fight pirates in my adventuring team; If you want to improve your strength, I can teach you domineering cultivation methods, instead of hiding it from you like the navy. β
"I ...... I can't decide ......" Bruno's tone finally softened, his face hesitant.
"There's no hurry, you have to discuss and decide." Jing Tian chuckled: "Then the main thing now is to get you out first." β
Bruno turned his head to look at his unconscious companions, and then nodded silently to Jing Tian.
"Very well, do you see that little boat on the shore? The one right next to the warship. β
"See." Bruno looked back inside the 'air gate', and through the translucent scene, he found the small sailboat that Jing Tian had spoken.
"Take your companions and go to the cabin of that ship." Jing Tian directly used the 'Sky Dancing Technique' to float up slowly: "I'm waiting for you on the boat." β
"Okay." Bruno nodded heavily, glanced at Jing Tian's dangling feet, then turned around and bent down, picked Rob Lucci first, and sent him into the 'air gate'.
Jing Tian smiled slightly, his figure quickly rose into the air, and then turned around and flew towards the edge of the island......
After more than ten minutes, Bruno transported all the unconscious members of 'CP9' into the cabin through the ability of the 'Gate Fruit', and after Jing Tian sensed it, he immediately raised the sails and sailed the ship away from the coast, leaving in the direction of the Gate of Justice.
The surrounding warships were not blocked, and under the command of the five vice admirals, naval soldiers were still sent to land on the island to collect survivors for killing.
In this way, Jing Tian drove the small sailboat, bypassed the gate of justice without hindrance, and sailed into the distance......
A few hours later, Jing Tian accelerated by rowing the oars all the way, and finally spotted the Merry in the distance.
Soon the Merry entered Jing Tian's perception range, and Jing Tian accelerated again and chased the sailboat up.
There was a faint panicked cry from the Merry, but it didn't take long for Robin to see Jing Tian's figure with his ability, and then he spoke out to appease the Straw Hats.
"Yo~" Not long after, Jing Tian rowed a boat to catch up with the Merry, so that the two ships began to run in parallel, because he was in a good mood, he couldn't help but smile and say hello to the Straw Hats.
"Which side are you?" Luffy felt very confused, so he asked Jing Tian directly.
"I'm not standing on either side." Jing Tian smiled and stretched out his hand to pick up Robin, who jumped over the side of the boat, and then said to the Straw Hats with a smile, "Congratulations on your big victory." β
"There's a ship coming over there!" Frankie and Jing Tian are not familiar with each other, so they are looking around boredly, just in time to spot the situation in the distance.
A huge galleon, larger than a warship, appeared from afar and came straight for this side, and only then did the two sides see who it was.
"It's the iceberg idiot......" Frankie chuckled as he muttered Espargu's name in a homophonic voice.
"It's the Straw Hats!"
"It's Mr. Benefactor!"
Esbagu stood at the bow of the ship, with a number of boatmen behind him, and when the boatmen saw the situation of the two sailboats, they immediately roared.
Quack - squeak -
At this moment, there was a sudden crisp sound from the hull of the Merry, and the hull of the front half of the bow of the ship was broken in a daze, and it was very completely broken, from the deck to the bottom of the ship, and a large amount of seawater poured into it instantly.
"Merry!" The Straw Hats exclaimed.
"Oh no! Something happened to the Merry! Luffy anxiously shouted, "Uncle Ace! Frankie! Hurry up and help! β
"Yes, yes! Please hurry up and help! Usopp was also in a hurry, and shouted in a crying voice: "Aren't you all shipbuilders!" Please save Melly! β
"He's the one we've been sailing with us ever since!" Luffy grabbed the side of the ship and shouted to Esbagu, "And he saved all of our lives just now!" Escape from Justice Island with us! Please save him! β
Luffy no longer uses 'it' to refer to the Merry, but instead uses 'he', and obviously, the Merry is really regarded by Luffy as an important companion.
"Then ...... Let him rest in peace......" At this moment, Esbagu didn't think that Jing Tian could still save the Merry, after all, the hull of the ship had been completely broken, and judging by the situation, even the keel of the Merry was now completely broken, and it was no longer full of cracks as before.
"How can this be ......" Luffy froze.
"We've done our best......" Esbagu sighed, slowly detailing the situation in which the ship elves had asked him and Jing Tian for help.
"We saw a miracle, a ...... The Miracle of the Ship Beyond the Limits......" After speaking, Esbagu sighed again and said in a deep voice: "Although I have been a ship repairer for so many years, I have never seen such a remarkable ship!" He's done right, it's time for him to rest......"
ββ¦β¦ I see......" Luffy closed his eyes and sighed, his expression gradually calming down.
"How could it be ......" Jenna and Chopper of the Straw Hats are the most sentimental, or the least able to hide their emotions, at this time, one of them covered his mouth with tears, and the other simply cried with tears.
"So......" Shaoqing Luffy took a deep breath, turned his head to look at his companions and said, "Have you all decided......"
The crowd was silent or nodded.
Everyone present was silent, and Esbagu had a wooden boat lowered for the Straw Hats to stay, while Luffy stood on another raft and lit the torch in his hand.
"Merry!" At this moment, Jing Tian suddenly spoke, and under the gaze of everyone, he said loudly to Mei Li, "You should have something to say to them, right?" β
Everyone was puzzled, but soon a shocking situation appeared.
"I'm sorry......" The female voice suddenly appeared in everyone's hearts.
"I really want to take you further, I really want to continue the adventure with everyone" The tone of the ship elf was very apologetic, and I don't know if it was because of the 'return to the light', this time, the voice was very clear into everyone's heart.
"But I ......"
"That's why we should say we're sorry!" Luffy burst into tears in an instant, choking up and shouting at the Merry, "I'm not going to take the helm!" You've hit an iceberg! I often break the sails! Zoro and Sanji are also fools! Always sabotage...... Although it's Usopp who fixes you every time...... But the technology sucks...... So, it's us who should say I'm sorryβ"
ββ¦β¦ But, I'm happy......" Merry's voice said with a satisfied emotion, and finally said in a relieved tone: "Thank you for always being so good to me, I, really, very happy!" β
"Merryβ" The Straw Hats collapsed, all but Sanji and Zoro cried, and even the boatmen behind Esbagu sobbed.
"Impressive, right?" Jing Tian opened his mouth and said softly to Robin, who had tears in his eyes beside him, and at the same time, his eyes swept slightly to the cabin behind him, and several figures disappeared in a flash.
"A very happy ship." Robin nodded lightly and raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
"So, he should continue to be happy......" Jing Tian smiled slightly, and then shouted: "Moo! β
Wow β
Wave Break...... (To be continued.) )
