Chapter 307: This Time Is Different From The Past
But when Scarlet was killed, he and Violet were not with her, and she was just a six-year-old girl, how did she get to where she is today?
Unless, Cyrus is still alive!
Seeing Rebecca with his own eyes filled King Riku's heart with pity, but he couldn't help but perk up knowing that his son-in-law and best friend, Cyrus, might still be alive.
Is there really hope for revenge on the "Don Quixote family" and the rescue of the people?
Rebecca didn't have the delicate of a girl of her age, she was pushed to the ground, just rubbed her buttocks, and got up.
She was about to argue, only to see a sword fighter in a silver helmet standing in front of her.
The group of bullfighting arena personnel walked away.
"What, what's wrong? Are you here to laugh at me, too? β
"No, I'm not going to laugh at you, Rebecca, I have something to talk to you about, let's find a quiet corner."
Rebecca, who had long pink hair, shrank back, her eyes full of wariness.
She couldn't trust to call her by name when they first met, and she was going to take her to the weird uncle in a quiet corner.
Seeing Rebecca's vigilance and vigilance, King Riku only felt that he owed her too much over the years, and he felt even more guilty in his heart.
He was about to explain briefly and clear up the misunderstanding when he heard a shout from the crowd.
"Run!"
Suddenly, a small figure jumped out of the crowd, and it turned out to be a toy soldier with a broken leg.
Without saying a word, he tugged at Rebecca's trouser leg and was about to take her away.
"Mr. Soldier?" Rebecca's tone was full of questions.
King Riku only needed to take a look, as if he had seen through all the truth.
He was dumbfounded, and was about to ask for confirmation when he heard the toy soldier let out an impatient growl.
"Someone is going to arrest you...... Let's get to a safe place first. β
"Someone is trying to arrest me?" Rebecca blinked wide-eyed, not understanding the status quo.
Alerted by the toy soldiers, King Riku cast his gaze around, only to notice that there were many suspicious people surrounding him...... Obviously, they are all members of the Don Quixote family.
Exposed, Rebecca's identity revealed.
"I'll go with you." King Liku said.
The toy soldier glanced at King Riku, who was wearing a silver helmet, and did not object.
Clearly, he was indeed Cyrus who had been erased from the memory of King Riku.
Only Cyrus could recognize King Riku by his voice alone, and protected Rebecca for nine years.
Rebecca slowed down, realizing that someone was chasing them, and no longer hesitated, bent down to pick up the toy soldier, and nodded towards King Riku.
Since Mr. Soldier did not say no, he agreed with King Riku to follow them.
Rebecca understands Mr. Soldier's intentions with the tacit understanding she has cultivated over the years.
They uttered no secret words, and almost without warning ran together diagonally.
The pursuers of the Don Quixote family hurriedly gave up hiding, pushed away the innocent citizens who stood in front of them, gathered together, and chased after them.
"Don't let that girl run! She has the blood of the 'Evil Riku King'! She intends to surrender to the 'terrifying King of the Deep Sea' and usurp the orthodox throne of the Don Quixote family! β
"And that toy soldier, he's a wanted criminal! A mad, inhumane, attacking human doll! β
The crowd around the bullring arena looked in amazement when they heard these shouts, and all eyes were focused on Rebecca, King Riku, and the toy soldiers.
Some people remembered King Liku's cruelty and inhumanity back then, and couldn't help but curse in a low voice, some thought of the Davy Jones Pirates who were approaching step by step, and were silent, and some people looked nervous and pale.
But no one reached out to stop them.
The subordinates of the Don Quixote family had no choice but to take matters into their own hands, and they were in hot pursuit in the rear, not giving the three of them a chance to stop and breathe.
After all, King Riku is old, and Rebecca is a young girl, and the two of them have been exhausted by the wild running, and they will soon be out of breath and sweating profusely.
Cyrus, the "toy soldier" in Rebecca's arms, is secretly anxious.
If he were to change to his former human form, he would be able to deal with the pursuers in the rear without any difficulty even if he broke a leg.
But now, it will take a lot of energy and time for him to repel the subordinates of the Don Quixote family, let alone cover King Riku and Rebecca.
Yes, Cyrus had already recognized King Liku, and even if King Liku was wearing a silver helmet, he could recognize King Liku's identity from his voice.
It's just that he knows how unreasonable Sucrose's childlike fruit ability is, and the memory of him should have been erased, and King Riku may not recognize him.
In addition, in public, he couldn't reveal the identity of King Liku, so he didn't say anything.
Now Cyrus is very anxious, and has managed to survive in the kingdom of Dressrosa to this day, if King Riku and Rebecca are captured together today, then the previous efforts will be meaningless.
So, he pushed the arm that was wrapping around Rebecca, and said, "Rebecca, let me down, I'll break you off." β
"No way!" Rebecca shook her head desperately, panting and running, and said, "It must be the information I filled out in the bullfighting arena that exposed my blood, I can't let Mr. Soldier risk his life for my mistakes." β
Although she had learned to be cautious because of her life in exile, she was still a fifteen-year-old girl, and adults could not be perfect, and she would make mistakes.
If it were in the past, as the granddaughter of King Liku, after revealing her identity, she would only attract abuse at most, and would not attract the pursuit of the Don Quixote family.
To put it bluntly, Doflamingo still doesn't look down on the bloodline of King Riku's wandering to the people.
But this is not the case.
The situation in Dressrosa became tense, and even the slightest disturbance would cause an uproar, not to mention the appearance of the granddaughter of King Liku the "Tyrant" and the niece of Violet the "Traitor".
King Riku, wearing a silver helmet, frowned.
He couldn't let Rebecca be caught, and he couldn't let Cyrus, who had retained his toy soldier form, stayβthat would be the equivalent of sending Cyrus to his death.
So he stopped, turned around, drew his sword from his waist, and said, "Go quickly, and I will stop them!" β
"You ......" Rebecca looked back in surprise, she didn't understand why this unknown sword fighter would sacrifice himself to protect them.
Cyrus understood the reason and shouted: "Both of you are important, don't be stubborn, leave me behind, I promise to come back to you......"
"You don't have to fight."
At this moment, there was a loud shout from directly in front of them in the direction of their escape.
Another wave of Don Quixote troops arrived upon hearing the news, and under the attack from front to back, King Riku, Cyrus, and Rebecca were besieged.
The crowd on the street, which was still watching the excitement, dispersed in an uproar and took refuge in a safe place.
Cyrus looked up to the sky and sighed, then finally squeezed out of Rebecca's arms, jumped to the ground, and drew a sword the size of a sewing needle.
Rebecca also drew her sword and stood back-to-back with Mr. Soldier, forming a triangular formation with King Riku.
It was the two cadres of the Don Quixote family who shouted to stop them just now.
One is a bald old man with a scumbag, Rao A. G, the other is Dehringer, who wears a horned hat and is dressed as half man and half woman.
In addition, among the encircled crowd, there was also a force of the Hundred Beast Pirates, led by Sipshead, one of the "sheep" of the "real fight".
He eats the "Artificial Animal Sheep Fruit" and has a long sword on his back, and is the right-hand man of Jack the Drought.
Behind Sipshead were either the "givers" who failed to reach the level of "real fighting" among those with artificial animal fruit abilities.
Either they eat artificial fruits but fail to gain the ability, but instead leave behind a "hilarator" who cannot suppress the side effects of laughter.
A dense crowd of people blocked the entire street.
