Chapter 143 Fallen Stars
Germa 66... I really heard an unpleasant name.Why did you get involved with them...Xiao Youxiang!
Sanji silently hid in the shadow of the street corner, he was almost [-]% sure that Matthew should know that he was here.But that guy is sometimes unbelievably considerate, and he didn't expose it, probably because he was waiting for himself to go out in person.But Sanji didn't think it through, he didn't know what to say.
If possible, he doesn't want to have anything to do with those people in his life, as long as he continues to follow Luffy as if he doesn't know anything, maybe this wish will come true.But...but Matthew (the body) and the one named Kagawa were taken away...however, they are all companions who have traveled together.
Although they are all men, although they are not so attractive, but... If I hide what I know like this, will you blame me?Xiaoyouxiang?
Sanji stood there taking a puff of his cigarette, and when he exhaled the smoke, he already had the answer.Of course not.That's why I...
"Sorry, Xiao Youxiang. Can I have a word with you first?"
"Hey? Sanji-san??" When was it behind!Wasn't he on the boat with everyone... I thought he was also drunk and fell asleep.Youxiang turned around in surprise, she looked at Sanji who came out of the shadows and said, "That...it's okay, Mr. Sanji is on the boat with everyone, I always feel that they are a bit disturbing."
"It's indeed a group of worry-free guys. Even in such a neutral harbor, they can't all be drunk." So I'm still awake.Sanji said, "But Ace is still there. Unlike 'mine', Luffy's brother is still quite reliable."
"Sanji-san...?" My...?Yuxiang was a little confused, and then she suddenly realized that Germa66 was really with Sanji-san... She said, "Could it be that... Sanji-san and Germa66..."
"…………Did you discover it?"
"No, it's just, I just think it's very similar... Iji-san and Niji-san...we met once before on another island." Youxiang explained, "Although they didn't mention Sanji-san, but whether it is From appearance to name, they are very similar..."
"That's right." There was really no way.No matter how I try to hide it, the part of my body that cannot be changed still cannot get rid of them.Sanji was smoking a cigarette, and he said calmly, "It's only natural that they look alike, because they are my brothers by blood. You've met before...? They didn't do anything to you, right? Xiaoyouxiang?"
"Um, um! It's okay." Something bad must have happened before, Sanji-san looked very unhappy!Youxiang shook her head and said, "Well, Sanji-san... I don't think the people in Germa66 know that Sanji-san is here, so this matter should have nothing to do with Sanji-san... If Sanji-san doesn't want to mention If so, it doesn’t matter if you don’t mention it, okay?”
"After all, you are our captain's friend, so you can't say that I have nothing to do with it. Even as a companion, I should say it." Sanji replied, "It's okay. This is just stating the facts, don't think too much ...If you have any questions, just ask, although I don't know much, but I will tell you all."
"I understand, Sanji-san." It was Matthew who spoke.Now he can only rely on his small board to produce sound, but the volume is always moderate as before, "Then let me ask the question I care most about... According to my scan, the bodies of Mr. Iji and Mr. Niji They have all undergone a very deep transformation, but your body is no different from that of ordinary humans—”
"May I take it that you are Germa 66 who escaped because you refused some kind of genetic modification experiment?"
"No, can't you... Don't you guess right?" Sanji said, "Not only the two of them, but also Reiju... It's my sister, there should be another guy, they are all transformed Yes. Germa 66 is a mobile country built on a ship, there are no ordinary citizens on it, all soldiers have been genetically modified, and they are all male. It is completely a country made for waging war."
"So that's how it is... I heard that the country is also in a similar situation before." That's why the devil said that if he reached Germa 66, he had reached heaven.Is that place easy for demons to breed... Matthew thought about it, and he said, "In this way, I can probably speculate that the reason why they kidnapped me must have something to do with genetic modification."
"Can they be transformed again after they are all like that?"
"It's too late for Mr. Yiji to reform. After all, there are already many disadvantages in age, and they are the products of 'normal production' after all. In fact, there are not many places that can be changed." Ma Xiu explained, "I think there should be a bottleneck in a new experiment, and I need to help complete it. I probably exposed too many 'geniuses' when I met Mr. Yiji and the others."
Fortunately, you can speak... you are quite confident.But it's not without reason.Sanji said: "Germa is very crazy about this... If you want to achieve your goal, you will use any means. I just heard you say that there is something in their hands? Whatever it is... I suggest you don't fight with them What deal."
"Well...Mr. Sanji, don't worry. I am the one who benefits from all the transactions I have made with humans." Matthew said very confidently, "I am worried about your sister Reiju..."
"Ah?" Why worry about her?
"Mr. Kagawa seems to miss her very much."
"Don't think about other people's sisters casually! No, but..." Reiju's words... Sanji almost became a little agitated, he calmed down and said, "Don't look at Reiju, she has also been transformed and is very strong. No People need to worry."
"I think so. But after all, Mr. Kagawa is the most popular type among women, and I have to worry about her—"
"Don't talk about this topic anymore, you don't need to worry about Reiju."
"Understood." Matthew didn't know if it was intentional, anyway, he changed the subject obediently after he suddenly mentioned this, "In any case, I hope to get more from Germa 66 that is equivalent to Besca metal stuff - in fact I believe they must have it, which is one of the reasons I was 'kidnapped' voluntarily."
"Hey... If something happens, I don't care about you." Sanji sighed helplessly, and he said, "I thought I would never have anything to do with them again."
"...Mr. Sanji." Matthew paused, and he said, "Sometimes, only after facing it can we completely avoid future troubles. Although I don't know what happened in the past... But now, you must be more At that time, I had more helpers and more confidence to face anything."
Sanji was a little surprised, he didn't answer, but lowered his head and smoked slightly, until Yuxiang couldn't stand it and said, "Mr. Sanji, that... Luffy...don't know these things, right?"
"Ah, ah..." Sanji didn't know what Uka meant, he raised his head and said, "I hope you don't tell him either. I'm not...not ready..."
"Well. Because this is Sanji-san's own decision, we will keep it secret." Youxiang smiled, and she said, "Don't worry Sanji-san, come back to everyone now. Thank you for coming to tell us! Leave it to me—and Olu and Matthew! We'll be fine~"
"If you say you want my help, I will help you, Xiao Youxiang." Sanji said in a low voice, "It doesn't matter if you are a little self-willed? No matter what you think now, it is more beneficial for me to help Bar?"
"However, it's too bad to be willful to Sanji-san now. Youxiang is not a bad boy." As she said, she moved a little closer to Sanji, and she said, "Although Matthew just said about facing something... but I I think it is okay to run away sometimes. Because we are not that powerful, when we encounter terrible things, sad things, run away, and hide behind people we trust... This is also understandable. No matter what Mr. Sanji will do in the end ..."
"Don't force yourself, okay?"
"If I hide, won't you hate me? Xiao Youxiang?"
"How could it be! I will hide when I encounter bad things! And I hide too often!" Youxiang smiled as she said, "Sanji-san is a gentle person, I know it. So it doesn't matter, think It doesn't matter if you want to hide, whether it's Luffy or someone else...everyone will understand."
"..." Xiao Youxiang... You are also an overly gentle person.It's okay to scold me a little bit, scold me who wants to escape.If you treat me so well, I will, I will...
"I love you--"
"No love."
Just now Sanji was about to spin and fly towards Youxiang, but Ace pressed his face and pushed him back: "Really... Youxiang, when will you learn to act like a baby when it's time to act like a baby!"
"Ace?" Why is it here too!You all like eavesdropping lately, don't you?Youxiang said, "Why did you follow?"
"I don't feel at ease now that I can't see you!" Ace said the truth, "Although I know that it may be troublesome for Garp to see me, I can't let you deal with this kind of thing alone. If Sabo If you are awake, he will definitely follow. This is something related to your 'past', Yuxiang. I want to know... We all want to know. We are very concerned about your affairs!"
"Although I'm sorry to disturb your affectionate gaze, please don't treat me as someone who doesn't exist." Olu raised his hand, and he said, "Anyway, I still have some role."
"Huh?" Ace said that you were bored to death, "It doesn't matter what you do, I don't care at all anyway."
"You really have a clear distinction between likes and dislikes!" You bastard!Olu said, "Okay, whoever wants to follow and who doesn't, let's go quickly! Otherwise, it will be dawn! If the boss is killed, will you pay me? Have time to enjoy a high salary and high welfare life!!"
"Olu is right. If the boss is gone, what about the salary? What about the sponsorship? If there is no salary and sponsorship... then the Little Seal will have no legitimate source of income at all!" You Xiang also Said that this is a very serious problem, "We are a regular ship with a business license, and we cannot practice piracy. In this way, we can only let Ace and Sabo go half-naked on the street!!"
"What??" Ace felt that he seemed to have discovered Youxiang's strange ambition.
"Mr. Mansfield will be very touched knowing that you are so 'concerned' about him." Matthew muttered, and then said, "Anyway, let's go to Lieutenant General Garp first. Mr. Ace's words... now wear Coat, comb your hair up a little bit, and then just refuse to admit that you are Ace—although it is better to avoid meeting Marshal Sakasky directly."
"I think it's impossible for Marshal Sakasky to appear near Grandpa's room in the middle of the night."
"It makes sense."
It should be no problem.Ace shook his head, and he said to Sanji: "Go back to the boat first, Luffy and the others are a bit worrying."
"Ah... Is it okay for you to go?" Sanji said, "It's okay for me to exchange with you. Anyway, I just went to meet an old man. If you are worried..."
"It's okay." I have to keep Youxiang within sight at all times.Ace said, "I can still handle this matter, and I won't make the same mistakes again. Don't worry about me. Besides... Luffy, he doesn't mind anyone's background. Whether it's a commoner, a nobleman, a criminal or even One Piece son. He doesn't mind at all. You don't have to worry about that either."
"........."
Before Sanji could say anything, Ace patted him on the shoulder, and then left with Yuka and the others.Before leaving, Youxiang turned her head and waved to Sanji.Sanji swung back slowly, and smiled unconsciously when he turned around.My own captain is really a lucky guy, whether he is an older brother or younger sister, they are all equally good, and I am a little envious of him.
——So what's the situation?
In the middle of the night... Garp was sitting on a bed made of tatami mats, with a furry nightcap on his head, and a bewildered expression on his face.I am already an old man.Just disturbing the sleep of the elderly so casually, do you little ones still have a conscience? !
"There is no one else outside." Olu poked his head in from outside the sliding door, and he said, "I'll watch out for you at the door, hurry up."
"Thanks for your hard work, Olu~" Olu is very suitable for this kind of work, and he is very familiar with it.Youxiang chewed Garp's snack, the big senbei, and said, "Grandpa, I have something I want to ask you about a long time ago~"
"Let's not talk about that, these two..." Garp pointed to Ace and Rossi who were sitting on the two sides and were taking big crackers from Youxiang, "Is this kid okay here!! Give me quickly Let's leave!!! And who is this suspicious-looking boy!"
"Don't mind them, grandpa! This is Alan, a colleague I met at work." Youxiang opened his eyes and said nonsense, "Although he may look familiar, he is really just Alan. Alan. And this suspicious person is Rossi. He is a ghost. Don't worry, it's a good ghost!"
"Uh... my head..." Garp supported his forehead, he just had a sudden nervous headache, "Forget it, forget it... Anyway, I have retired... Little girl, what are you doing? How did you do it?"
"I don't know what grandpa is talking about~" Youxiang didn't intend to explain at all, she said, "I came to find grandpa specifically for one thing...that is, the mercenary who handed me over to grandpa, he came Didn't you wear a very powerful armor at the time?"
"Ah?" What did she suddenly say, little girl...
"Let me ask, Miss Youxiang." Matthew made a voice, and he said instead of Youxiang and Ace who were concentrating on eating big senbei, "Lieutenant General Garp, I think that Miss Youxiang was entrusted to you back then." The mercenary wears an armor made of special metal. This armor has a higher utilization value for the navy than that spaceship. Please tell me if the navy recycled that armor and used it for other Where?"
"Um……"
Originally, I didn't want to say so much.A picture of that day appeared in Garp's mind.It was a sunny day, and my ship was sailing normally on patrol at sea, but suddenly, a bright fireball fell from the sky. The scene is still fresh in my memory, and I am afraid that everyone who witnessed that scene that day will hardly forget it...
It was as if a star had penetrated the barrier from the night and fell into the sunlight, its light covering the sun in an instant.
Although it was only for a moment, it was also an incredible sight for humans.
"It's a metal that is completely different from iron just by looking at it." Garp paused for a while, and then said, "Although I concealed the matter of Youxiang, I still have to hand it over to the World Government. Only useful things."
"...I understand." That was not done by Garp alone.It is a decision made by the sailors of the entire warship.Let a child who fell from the stars live a 'normal life', they chose to 'turn a blind eye', until today no one mentioned the 'most valuable one' of the things that fell that day - a small life.
Matthew said: "That metal is called Besca, and it is an extremely rare metal even in the stars. It is impossible to have any other production on this planet. Therefore, I only have one question, Lieutenant General Garp. Why did the only beska gold that was supposed to be in the hands of the navy appear on Germa 66's equipment?"
"Hmm..." This is also a question left over from history.Garp lowered his eyes slightly, and said, "I just handed over that man, his armor, and the ship to the World Government. Although I don't know the details of what happened next, I have heard some rumors. Those things were originally exchanged. It was given to Chief Scientist Vegapunk...but for some unknown reason, Vegapunk rejected some of the research."
It's Vegapunk again... from the beginning to the end, he never broke away from that guy.Is this considered evil?Dr. Vegapunk?Matthew thought so, and he didn't intervene, so Garp continued: "The rejected part, because it showed too significant value, so the World Government did not give up, but sought other help."
"Did they trade Besca metal to Germa 66 for something...?" Matthew speculated.
"Ah. The rumors are like this." Garp said, "I don't know what was exchanged specifically. Presumably even Sengoku, who was the marshal at the time, didn't know very well. But what is certain is that it should be exchanged with those of Germa 66. It’s related to body modification. You probably have something to do with Germa 66, right?”
"Grandpa..." Youxiang thought for a while, and she felt that asking about her mother would make Garp feel a little more at ease.She put the unfinished sword hilt on the tatami, "Have you ever seen something like this?"
"What is this?" The hilt of the sword...?But only half of it.Cap said, "What the hell happened, girl! Won't you explain it to me from the beginning?"
"In fact, I don't know what happened, but what is certain is that this thing has something to do with my mother." Youxiang replied, "If I can finish it, then maybe I can know what my mother is like." Man, why... sent me to this place. What happened before that... I understand that even if I know it now, it won't change anything, but I..."
Still want to know.
There is really no way... Garp picked up the hilt, was it actually made by Hailoushi... There are very few people who have this kind of craftsmanship.He was still thinking about it, and Matthew added: "To complete it, a material similar in hardness and plasticity to Hailou Stone is needed. At present... only Beska metal is the most suitable."
"Even if that's the case, you shouldn't have 66 with Germa... Hey..." Those people are just... Karp looked at Youxiang with a complicated mood, and it was only natural that he was full of yearning and curiosity for his mother.How can I stop you?But... Karp said, "They must have used that metal for weapons. There is no doubt about it. Germa 66's ambition has always been war, and they will only use useful materials for war."
In this way, it also makes sense for Bescakin to be in Germa 66's equipment.Matthew seemed to be lost in thought, so he took the opportunity to ask Youxiang a small question: "Then, grandpa... do you know anything about the comic "Sea Warrior Sky"?"
"Cartoon?" Garp was even more confused, "What happened to that silly cartoon?"
"Does Grandpa know who the author of the manga is?"
"Hmm... I think I saw it once at the Navy Headquarters?" Garp recalled carefully, and he said, "It's just a guy who was hired to draw comics. Nothing special. Why do you ask this, you Xiang?"
"..." Grandpa didn't seem to know at all.Sure enough, the guy at the bookstore was probably lying.Maybe that person is the real author, but he is younger... Or, the real author has already been killed.In short, you can no longer get involved with anyone casually.So is grandpa.Youxiang didn't ask further, she stood up and said, "Then let's go, good night, grandpa~~"
"Wait, wait for me, you little girl!!" Karp expressed his dissatisfaction, "Do you think I am some kind of comprehensive information desk here!! Do you only come back to grandpa when you have any questions?! "
"Really~~Grandpa is really capricious~" Youxiang put her hips on her hips, and she said helplessly, "Girls have a lot of things to do! For example~ fall in love or something!"
"Love without grandpa's consent is not acceptable!!"
"Hey~~ Why do you want grandpa to agree, the men that grandpa likes are too earthy."
"Huh—but you like these, little girl!" Garp pointed at Ace, Rossi, and Olu dissatisfied, "It's unreliable! Outlandish clothes! Like delinquent youths!! There are also those who look like a little boy. And unscrupulous brats!!"
"That's Grandpa's prejudice—although Rosie's outfit is a bit strange, but it doesn't represent everything! Rosie is a very nice and lovely person!"
"How cute is this brat, Grandpa, but I don't think so at all!!"
"Wooah...Grandpa! It hurts so much!" Rossi, who was suddenly pinched in the face by her grandfather, admitted defeat.
"Who is your grandpa! Don't bark!!" However, grandpa didn't agree with him, "Don't come so close to our Xiaoxiangxiang! Damn...it's in the middle of the night with Xiaoxiang What exactly is Xiang going out—”
"Grandpa is here again." Youxiang narrowed her eyes, and she said, "We're going back, grandpa. Go to bed quickly."
"Wait for me, Xiao Xiangxiang! Grandpa is worried about you!!"
"It's so late, don't be so loud! If you wake up the grandfather of the Warring States Period next door, you will be beaten!"
"I'm not afraid of that old man in the Warring States Period!! Stop!"
"Ugh——?! It hurts! Old Garp! What are you doing?!" Ace, who was suddenly beaten up, retorted angrily, "I didn't say anything?!"
brat!Garp was furious, but he couldn't really get angry when he heard Ace's energetic voice.He survived.It doesn't matter if it's a dream, or... even if it's my old man's hallucination...
"Don't let her cry anymore, you brat!"
"—I still need you to say it!!"
What a stinky old man!Still the same as before, only the fist is hard!Ace's head was still hurting from being punched. He looked at Garp and said, "Just put your heart in your stomach, old man!"
"..." Unexpectedly, although Garp raised his fist up, when he put it down, it did land on top of Ace's head lightly. He patted the disobedient boy's head, and then drilled Go back to your own bed and lie down: "You guys disappear quickly!! I'm going to sleep! You don't sleep at night! No one taught you to go to bed early and get up early!!"
Stubborn like this... Ace thought a little bit uncomfortably, he turned his head and saw Youxiang's smiling face, so he turned his face to the other side with embarrassment: "Okay, let's go before others find out !"
"Yeah!" Grandpa must be very happy too... It's okay to see Ace.Youxiang nodded with a smile, and then said, "Rosie, take the big senbei over there too."
After hearing this, Rossi calmly raised a large plate full of snacks: "I even brought oranges. There are also slices of rice cakes that the Warring States Chief likes most."
"Ah, I like that too, give me some first."
