Chapter 417: Time Passes (Subscription Requested)
The fierce battle added a few more scars to the already scarred Marin Fando.
Fortunately, in the end, the battle was over.
No one knew the final result, and the navy and all the witnesses deliberately concealed the result, but after this battle, the navy had two more admirals, codenamed Turtle and Green Bull.
"Boom...... Monster! There's a monster coming out! ......"
Doflamingo stroked his abdomen, smiling unscrupulously, he got the first-hand news, he was very happy, he didn't expect that there were so many monsters in this seemingly calm world, if it weren't for the Navy suddenly dropping bombs on this calm water, I don't know how long these monsters would hide themselves?
"This era is far beyond our imagination, and there is an endless undercurrent beneath the seemingly calm water."
Doflamingo stood in front of the window, looking out at the calm sea, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"What role do I play on this chessboard with the world as a unit and all races as pawns? It's really exciting, and once you think about it, you can't stop it...... ......"
Doflamingo laughed out loud and gave up his position as One Piece and all the interests of the New World, and instead became the owner of a maritime logistics company specializing in sea shipping, at least on the surface.
On the other hand, unlike the navy, which has gradually calmed down, the new world is still bustling.
"Ash!"
"Marco!"
Two large birds collided in the sky, blue flames and red flames eating at each other.
"I didn't expect you to get this fruit?!"
Marco frowned as he looked at Ember in the form of Eight Ravens.
"Do you think you're the only one who can have the Phantom Beast Species? I'm sorry! The most important thing we need in our Hundred Beast Pirates is the Phantom Beast Species! ”
Ember is like a small sun that can incinerate everything in the world, constantly emitting endless light and heat.
"Trouble!"
Marco looked at the ember who got the Bird Bird Fruit, Phantom Beast Species, and Eight Raven Forms, and felt extremely tricky, originally he and Ember's physical skills and domineering were also between them, relying on the ability of the Phantom Beast Species to be effectively suppressed, but after the other party got the ability of the Phantom Beast Species, this suppression was not obvious, especially the kind of flame on the other party's body, which was the fire of the sun that could burn everything, just the opposite of the self-healing fire that he could repair his injuries! In other words, the other party can be called his old enemy.
"Boom!"
With a wave of air, the two large birds kept colliding with each other in the sky, making violent noises and shockwaves that seemed to tear apart.
"Captain?! What's that? ”
Not far away, on a pirate ship, several pirates with binoculars looking into the distance looked at the amazing battle and asked their captain in shock.
"That's ...... We must not meddle in a battle between Marko, the undead bird under the new Four Emperors Yamato, and the eight crows of the old Four Emperors Kaido! ”
"The helmsman adjusts the direction, we want to avoid the area ahead! If we get caught up in those two monsters, we're doomed! ”
The captain of the pirate ship looked at the two people who were fighting fiercely in the sky, and beads of sweat kept dripping down his forehead, for fear of being discovered by the two of them, but he eliminated them with his hand.
Just as the captain gave the order, the entire pirate ship fell into a deathly silence, and no one in the entire pirate ship responded to him.
"Didn't you hear what I said? Quickly turn around Lao Tzu! Otherwise...... Otherwise...... How come?! ”
When the captain saw that no one had answered him, he was furious, and turned around as he roared, and then he was stunned by the man standing on the deck, and at the same time understood why no one answered him, not to answer him, but not to answer him.
"Alla...... Can you take me with you~ I've been riding for too long~ I'm a little tired~"
I saw that behind the captain, a decadent uncle about three meters tall and wearing a windbreaker and a scruffy beard stood on the deck at some point.
"You...... No, how did you end up here? Admiral, Pheasant Kuzan! ”
The captain's eyes were bloodshot, and he roared out the name of the man in front of him with high nervousness, yes, I am afraid that there is no pirate in this world who will be calm after seeing the man in front of him, just because the other party represents the strongest justice in the world.
"Alla...... That, I'm not a Navy Admiral anymore, I should be exact, I'm a former Admiral! It's been a long time since I didn't become a general~"
Kuzan scratched his cheek lightly and addressed the unknown pirate captain.
"Who are you fooling!"
"Do you think we're cheating? Don't be arrogant because you are a natural fruit ability! Let you see the power of the new world! ”
The captain shouted loudly that the weapon in his hand had been attached to the armament color domineering.
"Alla...... Really, I didn't plan to make a move~"
A second later, there was a lifelike ice sculpture of a pirate ship on the sea...... Kuzan looked at the pirate ship that he had accidentally touched, and scratched the back of his head helplessly.
"It seems that I can only continue to ride~"
Thinking so, Kuzan jumped out of the pirate ship, onto the frozen sea, and continued to ride his bicycle towards the two men who were fighting fiercely in the air.
"Give it up! Marco! ”
"It's not going to do you any good to fight us now!"
Ember attacks Marko as she tries to convince him.
"It's already been fought to this extent, what are you talking to me?"
Marco flapped his wings and flew through the air, looking at Ember who was talking while fighting him fiercely, and his stomach was full of anger.
"Alla...... Stop, all of you! ”
Just as the two were about to fight further, a tall figure stood under them.
"You are? Kuzan! ”
"Kuzan, you're finally out!"
When Marko and Ember saw the man below them, they stopped what they were doing and stood on the frozen sea of Kuzan.
"You're looking for me so fiercely, can I not come out?"
Kuzan faced the existence of the two bounties that belonged to the whole new world, his hands were still in his trouser pockets, he looked calm, and his expression was not moved in the slightest, this is the confidence of the top combat power on this sea, even if he fights the opposite two alone, he must win in the end.
"Uncle Kuzan come to my place! I will give you the highest treatment! This is the words that our boss asked me to entrust to you~"
Marco imitated Yamato's appearance and preached to Kuzan.
"Kuzan, you kid, come to Zuan!"
"Mr. Kuzan, this is what Big Brother Kaido asked me to tell you!"
Ember likewise mimicked Kaido's appearance and preached to Kuzan.
"You guy!"
"Don't disturb my work!"
Then Marko and Ember confronted each other with wide eyes again.
"I said, can't you just be quiet for a while? I have a great time to enjoy, why do I have to make such a fuss? ”
Kuzan shrugged his shoulders helplessly, he was really speechless.
"So Kuzan, whose place do you want to come to?"
Marco and Ember preached to Kuzan in unison.
"Don't imitate Lao Tzu to speak!"
"You're imitating, aren't you?"
Immediately afterwards, Marco and Ember quarreled again.
"Jingle Bell ~ Jingle Bell ~"
"Alla...... If you don't have anything else to do, then I'll go first! ”
Kuzan got on his bike and shook the bell vigorously.
"So what about your reply?"
"Don't disappoint me and the boss!"
Marko and Ember turned to look at Kuzan.
"Ah...... Let's talk about this later! At least I know you've all invited me. ”
Kuzan waved his hand at the two of them and rode off into the distance.
"Goodbye!"
"Farewell!"
After Kuzan left, Marco and Ember flew in the opposite direction.
Punk Hazard was originally a beautiful island, full of all kinds of rare vegetation, a piece of green as far as the eye can see, which makes people feel fresh, and then Vegapunk's laboratory leaked, and then the whole island became half ice and half molten slurry.
The island of ice and fire is a perfect metaphor for the image.
And in this way, this place where normal people will never come, but an uninvited guest came.
I saw a flash of fire in the sky, and Ember stood directly on the island, as a Devil Fruit Ability of the Phantom Beast Species Eight Ravens, he was not afraid of the molten slurry and ice on the island at all, and even the poisonous gas was blocked by the gas mask that had been prepared for a long time.
"Let me see where the hell is that Devil Fruit that Big Brother Kaido called the darkest history?"
Ember was unscrupulously exploring the island, and he was shocked when he heard Kaido tell him that a Devil Fruit that remembered Kaido's darkest history had been left on the island! If it's really as Kaido said, then this Devil Fruit must not be left behind.
Half an hour later.
"I didn't expect this desert island to have such a base!"
The katana in Ember's hand flashed with a bright silver sword light, directly slashing the base gate in front of him into pieces.
"It seems that as Big Brother Kaido said, this is the former base of Vegapunk."
Ember wanders the empty base, searching for the Devil Fruit known as the Black History.
A month later......
"You're here?"
Kaido sat in his office and played with the Devil Fruit in his hand, and only raised his head when the person he was looking for came.
"Boss Kaido, are you finally ready to eat me?"
Urdi looked at Kaido excitedly, and when she heard that Kaido was going to see her, she took a shower and put on board her underwear, preparing to spend an unforgettable night with Kaido, preferably in one go.
"What do I eat you for? It's for you to eat him! ”
"I think you haven't eaten the Devil Fruit yet, right?"
Kaido frowned suspiciously after listening to Urdi's words, he is not a devil who eats human flesh, nor is he a cannibal tribe in Africa, how can he eat people?
After Kaido finished speaking, he threw the Devil Fruit in his hand to Uldi.
"This is? What fruit? ”
Urti looked at Kaido with some confusion, she had never seen such a strange Devil Fruit, and she couldn't even tell the lineage of this fruit.
"If you really want to say it, it's probably the form of the human fruit phantom beast species Kaido?!"
Kaido touched the beard on his chin, looking a little unsure.
"Fruit for all? Phantom beast species? Kaido form? ”
Urdi looked at Kaido suspiciously, she still understood the words when they were all taken apart, but if they were all put together, she didn't understand.
"Could it be that Kaido-sama is already powerful enough for the world to recognize that it is a mythical beast in mythological stories, so he automatically gave birth to a Devil Fruit?"
Wu Erqian couldn't help but think of it in her heart.
"I understand Kaido-sama, I'll be the one to make good use of your power!"
Urdi's face flushed as she ate the fruit that Kaido had given her.
"Oh~Strength~ All the power is pouring out~"
"After eating this Devil Fruit, Kaido-sama and I are completely integrated~"
Urdi covered her little face and gasped with shame.
"It's just a Devil Fruit, isn't it?"
"Forget it~ Forget it~ Maybe I'm old and don't understand the young people now, you go down and feel the power of this fruit!"
Kaido waved his hand at Urti.
"Huh?!"
"Will you let me go now?"
"Isn't the real show just beginning?"
Ur looked at Kaido with a confused expression, called her over in the middle of the night, she even had her underwear ready, and that was it?!
"Let's go~Go~"
Kaido picked up Urti with one hand, threw it out the door, and slammed it shut.
"Is the boy gone?"
After Urti left, Black Maria, who was wearing a layer of tulle and showed off her fiery figure to the extreme, walked in from the next room with a towel to wipe her wet hair and her bare snow-white feet.
"Just left, this kid really has no eyesight, and it's always bad for me!"
Kaido said ruthlessly.
On the other side, Wu Eryuan, who was standing outside the door, opened her mouth slightly, as if she had not yet reacted from the gap.
"Really kicked out!"
"Ah Qiu~"
Blown by the cold wind of the cold night, Urdi couldn't help but sneeze......
A week later.
A man who rode his bicycle unscrupulously on the sea finally came to Zu'an.
The man did not rush to see Kaido, but first came to the farmland he was familiar with, the farmland that he had left for twenty years, the man still remembered that it was here, an old man with an excited smile on his face said to him, please let him come to Zuan to help Kaido, to achieve Kaido's great dream, he resigned at that time, because he was in the navy at that time, and now he is here, because now he is nothing, just a wandering man.
The man just looked at the farmland in front of him that he remembered, twenty years had passed, it had been transformed into a beautiful garden, and everything had changed......
"You're Mr. Kuzan, aren't you?"
Just when the man was immersed in his memories, a young man passing by pushing a bicycle suddenly noticed this unkempt man looking at the garden.
"You are?"
The man, who was Kuzan, looked at the boy in front of him who called out his name, but he didn't remember it at all, and then asked.
"Oops! You forgot about me? I'm Taiyi! Alas...... I guess you can't remember that, do you remember my grandfather? Back then, he always chilled the watermelon in the river water, and then pushed a small cart to send it to everyone to relieve the heat, and he always told me that you like to eat his iced watermelon the most, and I told him at this time, you must be old and confused, Mr. Kuzan doesn't need other people's ice to eat melons......"
"Hehe, I'm really embarrassed, I said so much at once, in fact, when you were stationed in Zu'an and helped us with farm work, I was still playing in the mud when I was young, in fact, I don't remember your appearance very much, mainly because my grandfather always talked about you, just now I saw you standing in the garden, I also looked at it for a long time, and finally planned to come over to try my luck, but I didn't expect to be really touched by me."
"By the way, do you remember my grandfather?"
When the young man named Taiyi saw Kuzan, he was ecstatic and kept talking to himself.
"I remember that he was a capable old man, and I remember him saying that although he was too old to work like a young man, he could still do what he could...... By the way, has he been in good health in recent years? ”
With Taiyi's words in Kuzan's mind, a spirited white-haired old man gradually appeared, and that old man, like Mr. Zefa, was very cool.
"Actually, he passed away seven years ago, but he walked very peacefully, saying that he had experienced the darkest times in his life, and he had seen the brightest future, and he also said that you would definitely come to Zu'an to continue to protect everyone and help His Majesty Kaido, This is your agreement with him, but it's a pity that his body can't keep up, and he can't see that kind of situation......"
In the end, Taiyi's voice became hoarse, and his nose became sore.
"I'm sorry!"
Kuzan was silent after listening to Taiyi's words, yes, so many years have passed, and the old man with gray hair, even if he is energetic, there will always be a time when the oil runs out and the lamp withers, and the years are not forgiving!
"Why do you have to apologize? Grandpa's death in itself had nothing to do with Mr. Kuzan, and besides, Grandpa walked really peacefully, and he left with a smile. ”
Taiyi shook his head lightly at Kuzan, Kuzan shouldn't apologize, he doesn't deserve to make Kuzan apologize, his grandfather said that Kuzan is different from those of them who are incapable, Kuzan is an excellent talent who can help His Majesty Kaido, and he will feel guilty if such a person apologizes.
“……”
Kuzan didn't speak, he looked at the sky with his hands in his pockets, as if thinking about something.
"Well, Mr. Kuzan, I have a presumptuous request, and I would like to take the liberty of asking you in place of my grandfather, that you are coming today...... Are you here for an appointment? ”
After thinking about it for a long time, the young man finally asked, and he thought he was asking in place of his grandfather.
“……”
Kuzan was silent, he was silent after listening to the young man's words, and he could not say anything.
"Ahaha...... That's what I asked, and I'm here to apologize to Mr. Kuzan! ”
Taiichi looked at the silent Kuzan, smiled awkwardly, and then bowed again and again.
"Hmmm! I'm definitely here for an appointment! ”
"Why do you have to apologize?"
Just when Taiyi didn't know what to say except bow and apologize, Kuzan finally spoke.
