Chapter 242
Valencia Town,
A lively celebration is going on!
The food that is enough to open the stomach, the fine wine from the cellar, even the stingy person will not at this time feel that this is a'waste'. Because for ordinary people, compared with life, everything seems insignificant.
Dream? free? Ambition?
Sorry, these are exclusive to powerhouse. What ordinary people pursue is nothing more than a stable life.
The coast is full of happy laughter and cheerful voices and civilians singing and dancing. Although the city has just been hacked by Pirate, fortunately, the other party prepares to keep civilians as a'bait' for traps, plus Roman The 211 teams led by the team arrived in time, and the casualties were not too heavy.
Moreover, there is also the contribution of Nami, the "No. 2" mobile spring. One day is enough for everyone to pull yourself together to offer blessings and revelry for the peace that comes again.
"It's a lively and familiar atmosphere"
Looking at the coast of happy laughter and cheerful voices in front of him, Nami couldn't help but think of the previous experience of the Straw Hat group: desperately and Pirate The battle, the smiles on everyone's faces, the lively carnival banquet... There seems to be no contradiction compared to before. And:
"Ann, won't you go for a drink?"
Faced with Iscar who rarely smiled, Nami shook the head with a smile.
"No, I will stay to see the boat, you go."
"Okay, then—"
The beautiful girl who walked to the side of the ship Commander looked back towards Nami.
"Ann, you can't just wait in front of a man, or you will be like me..."
It's too late to regret!
"Anyway, come on."
Iscar made a fist and made a gesture of'work hard'. A Geppo jumped off the Battleship and represented the 211 team to accept the town of Valencia. Thank you for the long, stationed Marine.
Although in theory drinking is forbidden by the army, after a great victory to save the entire town, the officers on the ship turned a blind eye to the wine, food and applause and praise from the civilians. . What's more:
"hahaha, don't worry."
Polkin, who took a sip of wine in the crowd, waved boldly.
"I have called my father ···cough cough, and asked the headquarters to send someone to defend here. Security is by no means a problem."
"Thank you, thank you"
"Thank you for your excellency ····"
"Long live Marine!"
Looking at a group of people who are'I am the second generation I am proud of', Nami supports it jaw.
"Hey, what a group of energetic people...?!"
Nami, who is leaning on the side of the Battleship ship and wearing a Captain coat, looked towards the shore, far away to himself The little girl waving and her mother also waved to each other happily.
"Big elder sister, I will protect Mama's"
"Don't say that, thank you Marine adults for your protection."
To the woman who bowed together under the little girl's head, Nami hehe Issho.
"This is what we should do."
·······
Gah,
Push the cabin away By the door, Roman who walked out just saw Nami who was in a good mood.
"Why, do you like banquets so much?"
With a wave of his hand, two side-by-side white chairs appeared on the deck, and Roman sat down and watched the crowds not far away. The scene shook the head.
"What's so happy about this? It's not as good as mine—"
As Roman turned his hand, one more book page appeared with two symmetrical human figures on the left and right.
"Replace the pages, good stuff!"
Roman smiled. After learning from Iscar that the pirate captain Klein had a metal hand, Roman I just want to understand how the other party can escape:
Hide one of his hands on another island, and then replace it with a metal prosthesis. In a critical moment, you can directly teleport yourself to another place far away through'replacement'.
This method can ensure that Klein even has the ability to escape the pursuit of Admiral! Of course, the prerequisite is to be ruthless to yourself: not everyone can do it actively.
And these are simply not problems for Roman! Not to mention that Roman itself has the ability to actively split the flesh and blood, and the'Seimei Kikan', which can quickly generate hair, is equivalent to immune to the price of activating this Devil Fruit ability.
"Hehe, I hope that Klein won't die now."
Roman in a good mood sat on the white chair and casually said to Nami next to him. ——Otherwise, the “replacement page” you just got will be scrapped?
"Hehe, I don’t know who was shot on the spot with six shots and seven holes yesterday."
Nami gave Roman a white look. Although it was to protect himself, Roman was the one at the time. The terrible situation almost made Nami cry. ——With Roman's strength, if it wasn't for protecting him, how could he be hit by a trifling gun?
"Don't panic,"
Roman waved his hand calmly by the'six guns and seven holes'.
"The trifling Kairoseki bullet is only, even if it can inhibit my fruit ability and affect the use of Busoshoku Haki, it will not inhibit my Kenbunshoku Haki and'Seimei Kikan'."
Why before Roman is so greedy for the skill of'Seimei Kikan'? Because this is really a god skill!
"At the moment I was shot, I controlled the muscles in my body to build up to the wound, so that the internal organs moved out of the bullet trajectory. Don't look at me with six shots and seven holes. In fact, it was just a'skin wound'. One of the shots is that I calculated that I would not accidentally injure you, and directly control the muscles to "give way" to make the bullet pass through the body..."
While Roman talked about how to minimize the damage, Nami sighed again.
This man is hopeless!
Rely--
?
Facing Nami who was sitting on a chair next to him, but resting his head on his shoulder, Roman finally came back to his senses from the explanation of an efficient battle.
Quiet——
There are carnival people on the coast and in the town, and the deck is the two people leaning on their shoulders. Compared with the rhythm and rhythm on the opposite side, this is the Tranquil Garden.
The leisurely white clouds drift by, letting the sun in the sky sprinkle a little bit of gold; the wind is gently passing over the mast, and there is the sound of waves beating against the ship’s side; occasionally there are a few white black-belly wings Of seabirds flew overhead.
Roman closed his mouth and slowly extended his gaze to the distance, gradually moving up, over the town, over the Marine base, it was a sea and sky with no end in sight. ——Roman suddenly found that it seemed that it had been a long time since he sat down and watched the scenery leisurely.
When was the last time? In this world ····It seems to be fighting and exercising all the time, maybe only the previous life?
The first three years of struggling to survive were only blood and killing; after joining the Straw Hat group, there was always a desperate enemy in front of me. It seems to have been moving forward courageously like a tight spring, although Roman does not regret his past. But:
Roman turned his gaze to Nami next to him. The girl did not know when she also lifted her head, looking at the sky in the distance, not observing the direction of the weather, but simply in a daze.
Nami tilted his head and leaned on Roman's shoulder. The orange hair that had gradually grown to the shoulder was scattered, and a few strands brushed on his face, with a leisurely expression. It wasn't the usual liveliness and self-confidence, nor the cunning or weakness that occasionally showed, Roman couldn't find words to describe for a while, just staring blankly, as if he had met the girl next to him for the first time.
Roman has never seen Nami look so quiet and virtuous. Most of the time, Nami gives people the feeling of being lively, cheerful, and emotional: laughing loudly, crying loudly, pouring alcohol, tears running along the road...
when she directs the direction of the ship When it was time, it was filled with confident rays of light. It seems that as long as she is there, there will be no Sea Territory that cannot be crossed, and no island that cannot be reached. Even if Roman is forced to develop "The Art of Thieves" every day, it is a sluggish, cunning and earnest effort.
At this moment, the girl leaning on the side has no such "reflections" of the past at all. At this moment, Nami is more like a pure girl who is not deeply involved in the world, leaning on the man's shoulder leisurely, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, and outlines her future dreams.
At this moment, abandoning those messy titles of'genius Navigator, magical girl, and professional thief', Roman suddenly realized that the companion of a young girl next to him was more than just Companion only...
"Roman."
"en?"
Nami refers to the ordinary people who laugh and celebrate on the coast, The little girl with a little hand holding her mother’s index finger, the rays of light in her eyes do not know how to describe:
Is it envy, or...
"I suddenly I think this is pretty good too."
?
"If it was just our short battle, we could make thousands of ordinary people smile. It seems that this kind of work is worth doing..."
? ?
"Ah, I just want to grab a few more captains with bounty, so that the promotion of the rank will benefit the next plan."
In the face of the emotional Nami, Roman is It is a pragmatic answer.
"As for saving people or something, it’s just easy. — I don’t have the thought of fighting for people I don’t know. Just thinking about Luffy and the others is enough for me to have a headache. "
·····
"pu 呲,"
Facing Nami who suddenly laughed, Roman tilted his head and his face question mark.
"It's nothing," facing the puzzled Roman, Nami simply lay down on Roman's shoulder and stared at him from the side.
"I just think that you really are Roman, and you will not make the girl happy."
"That disappointed you."
Roman rolled the eyes ,
"girl, that has Devil Fruit fun?"
"Really?"
Slap,
one His hand grabbed Roman's collar and pulled it out. ——As it should be by rights, impossible to pull Roman with Nami's power. But the so-called force is mutual. Since Roman hasn’t moved, what’s moving is:
The orange hair smashes and the pupils are enlarged, the lips overlap in the next meter, and the soft touch feels in it. A fragrance of oranges. Let Roman's pupils involuntarily dilate and contract!
"Na····"
"It’s not the time to talk, right?"
Facing, “crossing the border” from the chair directly next to him The girl whispering to herself, Roman certainly wouldn't be so stupid that she couldn't hear the other person.
He stretched out his hand and hugged the girl into his arms, soft as jade and as pure as fat. The eyes are facing each other and the lips overlap.
"Little...Major!"
Among the second-generation pointing fingers with an open mouth next to it, Polkin Ruthless Tie The hand fell on the opponent's head, and Vice Admiral violently turned the opponent's face forcibly! Easily stuffed a chicken leg in his mouth.
"Less you, you don't have any eyesight.-Don't say you are messing with me, shameful!"
Polkin shook the head proudly.
"It’s just a woman, are you in the shampoo place...Wait! Every time you go to the shampoo place, you make excuses to refuse, are you actually--"
The more weird look at Polkin, the second generation who glanced at the Battleship just now blushed, trying to distinguish:
"How is it possible, how brave I am, you don’t know... "
"I don't know, I don't know!" Xn
Other people around hehe haha hit a person when he's down,
"Are you super brave ?? Then let us see and see"
·····
"cough cough,"
Above the Battleship, Nami red sitting in danger Turning his head, he made Roman, who had a look of memorable expression, stroked his chin seriously.
It seems...not to lose to Devil Fruit?
Interesting.
