Chapter 288: My Any Door! (2-in-1)
"Bear Boy!"
"Bear Boy!"
"Get out of here!"
"Navy, there's a navy coming!"
When the warship of Jiguo Yuanyi docked on the south coast of the Solbe Kingdom, in a church near the south coast, some people broke into the temple in a panic, and shouted to the tall man who was sitting in front of the statue in the church at this time, dispelling the pain of an old man.
The man was tall and sat on top of a huge wooden box, which could be 4 meters tall by visual inspection. He was wearing an old black robe, dressed as a priest, and on the left sleeve of his robe, there was a large patch.
"Hmm~~~"
As the crowd ran into the church in a panic, the old man sitting in front of the man breathed a sigh of relief and let out a comfortable moan.
At the same time, a bear's paw-shaped, palm-sized translucent pink ball slowly flew out of the old man's chest.
The priest known as "Bear Cub" waved lightly, and the small pink ball quickly swept towards the idol, and disappeared from the sight of several people in a blink of an eye.
It wasn't until all this was done that the pastor slowly turned his head, looked at the door of the church, and said gently:
"Uncle Nur, run slower and don't wrestle."
The tall man, dressed in shabby holy clothes and dressed as a priest, was Bartholomy Bear.
Bartholomy Bear was born in this country, and his father was the incognito Bakania, a rare race with a part of the blood of giants, and for some historical reasons, the Bakania are a race wanted by the World Government, just like the Lunalia of Ember.
At that time, Xiong's father lived in seclusion in the kingdom of Solbe as a priest, married a wife and had children, and lived a peaceful and happy life.
It's just a pity that with the birth of the bear, the identity of the Bakania tribe was finally discovered by the world government, and their family was also taken to the holy land by the government, branded as the "Hoof of the Celestial Dragons", and became slaves.
The bear was raised in the Holy Land, as a slave.
Perhaps because of the scarcity and preciousness of the Bakania bloodline, slave children like bears grew up smoothly. It's just that as a slave, his growth is often accompanied by unimaginable pain.
Xiong's parents are gentle and optimistic people, and although they have suffered inhuman suffering, they still give Xiong warmth. Let the bear in childhood have a warm and strong heart.
Xiong's parents were not able to grow up with Xiong, and his parents died of abuse and shooting.
When Xiong was 9 years old, his life ushered in a turning point.
The Draconians held the 3-year "Human Hunting Tournament" to slaughter the aborigines of non-allied countries and rob resources, but also to give some small shocks to the people of the world, warning people not to try to resist the rule of the Draconians, and by the way, to clean up some slaves that the Draconians no longer need.
And the place where humans hunted was an island in the South China Sea called the Valley of the Gods.
And the bear is one of the slaves who is not needed.
In the Valley of the Gods, Bear meets Ginny, a girl who is also a slave, and Ivankov, a slave. Under Ginny's planning, news of the Valley of the Gods was revealed, attracting the arrival of two of the most powerful pirates in the world at the time.
The Rocks Pirates, and the Roger Pirates.
When the Draconians and the navy are in a hurry due to the invasion of these sea pirates, Bear steals one of the prizes of the "Human Hunting Tournament", the Meat Ball Fruit, with the help of his friends.
With the power of the Fleshball Fruit, Bear helped a large group of slaves escape from the Valley of the Gods battlefield.
Escaping from the Valley of the Gods, Bear and his companion Ginny return to the place where his parents lived, the South Sea Kingdom of Solbe.
He and Ginny lived a warm and peaceful life, but with the change of King Solbey, the new king obeyed the instigation of the Draconians in order to pay less heavenly gold, and divided the kingdom into two, and the unrich places in the south were abandoned, and the people of the whole region became non-nationals who could be disposed of arbitrarily.
It wasn't until three years ago that the arrival of the revolutionary army, including Long and Ivankov, helped the people of the country to free themselves from the tyrannical King Becorly.
After that, Bear and Ginny became part of the Revolutionary Army, following the dragons on their expeditions to help those in need.
However, even after joining the revolutionary army, Xiong would still return to his hometown from time to time to help the elderly who were suffering from illness.
In addition to being able to shoot enemies anywhere in the world, Fleshball Fruit's ability is also used to shoot pain away from people.
The pain will turn into a bear's paw-shaped pink ball, and the deeper the pain, the bigger the bear's paw.
As long as someone can bear the pain of that pat, then the original owner can be liberated from the pain.
Xiong is using this way to bear the pain on behalf of the old people and help the old people eliminate the pain, which he has been doing since he escaped from the Valley of the Gods and mastered the ability of the Flesh Ball Fruit.
Nowadays, Xiong has become the commander of the revolutionary army and is one of the most wanted objects of the navy, because of this, when the islanders see a warship landing on the shore, they will have such a big reaction and hurriedly notify Xiong.
"Bear boy, the warship should have docked in a while."
"Hurry up and get out."
"That warship was different from the warships I'd seen before, it was big, big, and it was all made of iron."
"Not ordinary, very unusual!"
"Maybe I'm here to get you!"
Old Nur, who had reported to the bear, walked quickly to the bear's side, and said to the bear while gesturing the size of the warship with his hand.
Hearing Nur's words, Xiong's face was also a little more serious.
A big warship made of iron?
If this is really the case, then the navy that came to the Solbe Kingdom this time is really not ordinary.
Although the main combat target of the revolutionary army is not the navy, Xiong has not had a lot of contact with the navy over the years, and the leader of their revolutionary army is Long, a former vice admiral.
Xiong also has some knowledge of the navy.
In today's era, there are very few iron warships, like the naval branch in the South China Sea, which uses wooden sailboats.
In the entire navy, the iron warships are only available in the headquarters, and even in the naval headquarters, there are only a few.
The people who can use those warships must at least be at the top of the navy above the vice admiral.
Therefore, when Xiong heard that such a warship was docked on the shore of this island, he was also in good spirits.
"Uncle Noor, Uncle Randha."
"I don't know what the goal of those navies is, but you better leave first."
"If there's a fight, I'll get you involved."
Xiong didn't care much about his safety, but cared about the two old men around him.
"Bear Cub, you must be careful."
"Let's go first."
The two old men also knew that staying here would only get in the way, and after a word of concern, the two slowly left the church with each other in their arms.
After the two left, Xiong slowly stood up and quietly stared at the idol in front of him, as if waiting for something.
On the streets of the southern district of the Solbe Kingdom, Ji Guoyuan, who was dressed in civilian clothes, led Robin in one hand and Erin in the other, and walked on the side of the road.
The navy has dispersed into the town, according to the instructions of Jiguo Yuanyi, hide their identities, and take a good feel for the customs of the Solbe Kingdom.
However, after entering the town, Ji Guoyuan realized that his idea was probably going to fail. Although the warship found a sparsely populated location to dock, not many people saw it.
But Ji Guoyuanyi underestimated the speed of the spread of the news in such a small town, and the mouths of the seven aunts and eight aunts here were also quite fast, and the news of the arrival of the navy had already spread throughout the town.
Of course, the main reason is that the town is so small that the neighbors don't know each other, and it is absolutely inevitable that they will be familiar.
Outsiders with obvious characteristics like Jiguo Yuanyi are naturally easy to identify.
Therefore, along the way, they have attracted the attention of many people. The people were afraid and afraid of Ji Guoyuan at first, but after seeing that Ji Guoyuan led the child and did not show any aggression, this fear and fear turned into curiosity.
Under the peeks of the people from time to time, Robin seemed to be a little embarrassed, and he lowered his head all the way, followed Yuanyi's side, and did not speak.
Erin, on the other hand, is unaffected and immersed in her own world.
The customs of the Kingdom of Solbe and Dressrosa are completely different, and Erin is like a countryman who has entered the city for the first time, full of curiosity about everything.
“ohhh~~”
"Brother Jiguo, I want to buy this!"
Suddenly, Erin broke free from Ji Guoyuan's hand, ran quickly to a fruit stall on the side of the road, pointed to the fruit on the stall, and shouted at Ji Guoyuan.
That's a coconut.
When he came, Ji Kunichi saw a series of coconut trees on the coast, and the trees were empty, and there was no trace of fruit at all.
In the Kingdom of Solbey, the season for coconut ripening is not 7.8 months, but 3.4 months earlier.
This is the season like this, when these fruits and vegetables are at their most abundant.
Erin is very interested in novel food, and at this time she is also attracted by coconuts and can't walk.
Ji Guoyuan took Robin and paced to the front of the stall, just glanced at the fruit stall, and then looked at the boss.
The owner of the stall was a lean middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties, with rough and dark skin, the color of working in the sun all year round.
There are a few small patches on the clothes on the boss's body, which are the kind of inner patches, the patches are about the same color as the clothes, and you can't see it if you don't look carefully, and the clothes are also very clean, only the cuffs are located, and there are some stains.
At this time, when the boss heard Ji Guoyuan's inquiry, he immediately smiled, picked up a small machete directly from his hand, skillfully hooked up a coconut, handed it to Erin, and replied with a smile towards Ji Guoyuan: "Chenghui, 50 Bailey one." ”
"If you buy more, I can give you a cheaper price."
The currencies of the four seas under the control of the world government have basically formed a unity, and even such a small country can anchor commodities with Bailey.
50 Bailey, this price is not cheap, after all, Chopper's bounty was 50 Bailey at the beginning, but if it is expensive, it is not appropriate, after all, the smallest face value of Bailey is 50 coins.
A bounty is a bounty, goods are goods, and if Chopper appears on the free market as a pet, 50 Bailey can't buy a tanuki, hey, and reindeer.
"Boss, let's have three."
Ji Guoyuan said as he took out a small money bag from his arms, took out the change, and handed it to the boss.
Hearing Ji Guoyuan's words, the boss immediately took the money with a smile and threw it into the small wooden barrel beside him, hooked a few coconuts neatly, cut a hole with a few knives, and then changed the awl, poked out the hole, and inserted a hollow straw rod as a straw, but greeted Erin:
"Come, this little brother, this is your coconut."
Erin happily took the coconut from the boss's hand, but after looking at it with a bit of novelty, she sighed, took a sip of coconut water, Erin smashed her mouth, and commented: "Well, it's good to be sweeter, I like to eat sweet." ”
Ji Guoyuan took the other two coconuts from the boss, handed one to Robin, and the other held it in his own hand.
After taking a sip, Yuan Yi nodded slightly, he still likes this kind of taste with a little sweetness and a little salty, refreshing and bland.
beckoned to the two small waves, and Ji Guoyuan turned around and left.
The boss waved warmly to the back of Ji Guoyuan and a few people leaving, and reminded kindly by the way: "You can open the shell after drinking the juice, and the white meat inside is edible!" ”
Obviously, this boss has recognized Ji Guoyuan and several of them as foreigners.
The small town in the south of the kingdom of Sobel is not lively, there are very few vendors on the streets, and the fruit varieties on this island are relatively single.
Most of the people on the road are middle-aged and elderly, mostly children, and very few young and middle-aged.
Not long after shopping, Erin lost interest and pillowed her head with her hands on her head, looking bored. Robin, on the other hand, followed Yuanyi, taking small sips of unfinished coconut water and smiling.
After a long time, Ji Guoyuan took his two children and slowly walked out of the town, away from the streets.
At the same time, a church with white walls and blue tiles also appeared in the sight of the three of them.
The church door was open, and the magpie bird flew over the heads of the three men, and there was a sound of flapping wings.
After pausing at the door for a while, Ji Guoyuan took the two children and walked towards the church.
"Brother Jiguo, what are we doing here?!"
"What is it doing here?"
As soon as he walked into the church, Erin looked around curiously, the architectural style of the church was something he had never seen before, and the architecture here gave Erin an inexplicable sense of mystery and solemnity.
In the nave, there are rows of benches made of wood, and although the surface is varnished, the workmanship is somewhat rough.
It is surrounded by large windows that allow sunlight to shine through the windows.
Although it was Sunday, there were no people who came to worship, only the god in front of the temple sat a huge figure, facing the idol and the cross, as if praying.
"Erin, Robin, you two go out for a while."
"Don't go too far, I'll call you when you leave."
Ji Guoyuan glanced at the figure looking forward, touched the two small heads on his side, and said.
When Erin heard that she was able to act on her own, she immediately let out a happy whisper, grabbed Robin's hand, and ran out of the church quickly.
And when the two left, Ji Guoyuan walked to the side of the bench in the front row and sat down on the bench.
Ji Guoyuanichi looked at the idol in front of him and asked out loud:
"Is this statue of a god a dragon man?"
"Pray to the Draconians, and they will bring happiness to the people?"
The huge figure with its head bowed in front of the idol slowly straightened up, turned its back to Jiguo Yuanyi, and explained:
"God is God, and the Celestial Dragons are Celestial Dragons."
When Ji Guoyuan heard this, he leaned back in his chair, looked at the idol, and continued to ask, "So does God have a response?" Did praying to God work? ”
"Well, it worked."
"The fact that I am where I am today is also the result of His blessing."
When Ji Guoyuan heard this, he was noncommittal, his fingers lightly tapped the table, and he asked with some doubts:
"Isn't it because you fought up?"
As the voice of Jikoku's voice fell, the church fell silent.
After a long time, the huge figure slowly shook its head and said:
"I just followed behind my friends, and it was God's guidance that allowed me to meet them."
Ji Guoyuan nodded, and then a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he continued to ask:
"Then why did God lead me to you?"
"Is He protecting me?"
"But I've never prayed anything like Him."
The moment Ji Guoyuan's words fell, the huge figure sitting in front of the idol suddenly got up, and in an instant, he disappeared directly in front of the statue.
In the next second, a giant figure directly "flashed" in front of Ji Guoyuanyi, and a huge palm slapped directly towards Ji Guoyuanyi.
His palms are a little different from those of normal humans, and the palms and fingers of men are pads of flesh.
"I'm sorry."
The faint apology came into Jiguo Yuanyi's ears, and Yuanyi raised his head slightly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a trace of curvature.
"Knock !!!!"
A muffled sound suddenly sounded from the church, and the majestic domineering spirit swept out directly from the church gate.
In the church, the seats flew sideways, and the windows around it shattered in an instant, and the glass shards splattered into the forest outside the church.
In the church, Ji Guoyuan sat on the bench, his left hand against the bear's palm, looked at the tall man in front of him, and said with a smile:
"What a gentle person!"
"Do you need to say anything sorry in the face of the enemy?"
"Bartholomy Bear, I like you very much, come with me!"
(How many roads does a person have to go before he can be called a true man; How many seas does a white dove have to fly over to rest on the beach - the green hat bear, he really, I cry to death. )
