[One Piece] Inferior Star

Chapter 193

What to do, this little navy is a little cute.

Rossi followed Mr. 99 while smoking a cigarette. He couldn't help laughing at 99 who looked back at him suddenly from time to time: "You don't need to be so vigilant against me, Mr. 99?"

"I've never seen a demon like you." That's not scientific at all.If you don't jump at people when you see them, and don't say something demagogic, is that still called a devil? 99 has been slaying demons and demons for several years, and he has never encountered such a thing!He said, "What is your plan?"

"I just want to help you, Mr. 99—"

"Don't call me so kind!"

hateful!I will not be confused by you!Even if you look exactly like Lieutenant General Rossindi, even if there is a 50.00% chance that you are really him, I will not believe you! 99 said, "Why do you follow Miss Youxiang?"

"Well, I have to follow her? Although I also want to... But, she should have 'summoned' me. Is it right to say that?" Rossi didn't understand the devil's tricks, he Say, "You seem to understand these things very well, tell me about it?"

"Why don't demons know about their own affairs..." It became more and more suspicious... 99 said, "Then why did you follow me?"

"I said it because I wanted to help you." Rossi replied, "Let's put it this way, Cabbage... Youxiang asked me to help you. This place is dangerous, isn't it? It's not just demons or something , if someone from Doflamingo sees it, it will be very difficult for you, right?"

"Don't treat me like a child. Although I may look...wrong! How can I say that I am also the captain of the navy, don't underestimate me!"

It seems that people are often regarded as children because of their appearance.Rosie suppressed a smile. Mr. 99 is about the same height as Luffy, but he should be much older than Luffy.The appearance is also very young, and the personality is also very shy and gentle.Although he should be capable as a navy captain (colonel), but if he doesn't wear a navy uniform and walks in the street like this...

Everyone will think he is still a child.

"Forget it, since you must follow me... Let me tell you first, I just believe in Miss Youxiang." Mr. 99 gave up resisting, he said, "This arena is reported as a 'high-risk area', the barrier may It's broken. I'm here to investigate why it's broken."

"So that's how it is..." That's what happened.Rossi said, "You guys are pretty good. That's all the investigators know? Do you have any equipment?"

"It would be nice if it was." 99 turned his head and glanced at Rosie, he said, "We are born this way. Said to be investigators...but also a member of my family. My family has been exorcists for generations .Almost every child born has this talent, but it's only from my sister's generation that I joined the navy."

Sister-sama means... that Lieutenant General Kamiya?Rossi said: "I don't know so much...Frey and the others don't seem to know that there is a family like yours."

"That's it." It's okay not to know.The family can't always be exposed to danger.Although... not much difference.After all, as long as you dream, you will never be safe. 99 said, "We only recently learned that there is a talented person like Miss Youxiang. Although it is not exactly the same as us... But if possible, we also hope to help."

"That's right, Youxiang should be very happy to know." Having someone like her means...she is not the 'special' one.In this way, she should more or less not always blame herself.Rosie said, "If you can help her..."

"There is no way." 99 said, "Will she always be attacked by spirit bodies or demons, and then suddenly get sick and hear strange sounds in areas where the barrier is unstable?"

"Ah... That's right. As for the voice, it seems that you can hear it as long as you are emotionally unstable."

"...We have nothing to do. I'm sorry." 99 was a little disappointed, and he lowered his eyes, "This is the 'negative effect' of the arrival of this bloodline. There is no way to eliminate it."

"........."

"Let her stay where there are healthy living people as much as possible, this situation can be avoided and alleviated to a certain extent." Seeing that Rossi was silent, 99 added, "I heard that in Totland, there is a group of people who call themselves ' Mage' people. Maybe they'll have a better way...but...but should also..."

"Mr. 99. Thank you." Why are you getting more and more sad?Rossi said, "You seem familiar. Do you also..."

"No. It's not me...I'm not so sensitive." Shaking his head, 99 whispered, "It's my mother. Ms. Youxiang's symptoms are the same as my mother's."

"Then your mother..."

"died."

"Feel sorry."

"That happened a long time ago. I don't need your apology." 99 emphasized, he said, "The smell is coming from this direction. I have to go down to investigate. It doesn't matter if you follow or not."

"I know Mr. 99, I will follow you." Rossi smiled, "Don't be afraid!"

"I'm not afraid!" Really, what's going on with you (demon)!Don't treat me like a child! Mr. 99 retorted that he decided to ignore this person and focus on the task in front of him.

Follow the smell to find a step down.I don't know how deep the ground is, so it's better to report to others first.Darkness spread in the depths of the stairs, and so did this stench.This smell can't be compared with the smell of rot or excrement in ordinary times, they are different.

99 I don't know how to describe it, in short, it is a kind of 'smell' that makes people uncomfortable when they smell it, and there is a disgusting 'smell' from the bottom of my heart.Sometimes ordinary people can also feel it, the hairs will stand up, and the whole body will feel numb.

"Don't you feel it?" 99 turned around and asked Rossi.

"I don't think we should go down." Rossi replied looking at the darkness below the stairs.

That means you are in the right place. Mr. 99 clenched his knife tightly, and then went down the stairs anyway.He cannot escape, no matter whether he is the navy or the heir of the family, he has no right to escape.But he wasn't very scared, no matter how weird and terrifying the environment was, he had never seen it before.

"..." This place is a bit scary.

Rossi was a little flustered, he knew he shouldn't pretend to be calm.What's going on, this feeling of panic is more uncomfortable than being directly under the pressure of BigMom!

Following Mr. 99, who seemed to be completely unafraid, walked for a while through the narrow passage under the arena, and they came to a relatively spacious area.From time to time, a crackling sound could be heard from the front, as if something had fallen into the sundries.Going further, you can hear some weak human voices.

"……cage?"

Prison or something? 99 saw the enclosed cage next to it. It was dark and seemed to be piled up with something. If you looked carefully, it was all...toys? ?Those falling sounds are the sounds of toys falling down below from the pipes that slide out from the ceiling to nowhere!

Some of the toys had stopped moving at all, but others were struggling in pain. They were crying and screaming, faintly but endlessly!

"This is..." Dover...what are you doing...Rosy was startled by the hellish scene, "Aren't these toys...alive?"

"..." Where did the toy come from, there is still no definite conclusion.But the navy speculates that it should be someone from the Doflamingo family's devil fruit ability.The best explanation is that someone used their abilities to turn a living person into a toy. 99 didn't speak, and pressed his hand on the handle of the knife. The barrier in this place has obviously been broken, so it must be...

"Hey... oh oh..."

A low growl of a monster came from the corridor, and Rosie was so startled that he almost dropped the cigarette in his hand.I saw a black thing standing up from the pile of toys, passing through the cage, and stumbling towards this side!

"Then, what is that...?"

"You really don't know anything. Devil."

99 seemed much calmer. He lowered his posture and said as if he was about to draw his sword: "This environment, this atmosphere, this is undoubtedly—"

"Desperate Devil."

A demon made of a combination of fear, anger, and sadness.It's second-rate in terms of purity.Generally, the danger of such less pure demons lies in their numbers, and they usually appear in groups.Judging from this situation, there must be three or four here.

It's okay to be alone.

"Mr. 99! Let's get out of here quickly!"

"Hey. Are you really a demon? The pure kind?"

Why would you want to escape? Mr. 99 glanced at Rossi, and he said, "I'm here to clean up these demons. I want to fight them. If you want to help, I have no problem, but if you don't help, don't make trouble."

"Nine, Mr. 99—uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" He was running so fast!" !I thought it was the kind of monster that would only walk slowly! !Rossi watched the monster rushing towards him just now!He immediately hid behind 99, and 99 directly drew the knife——

"Who the hell said to help me!!" He yelled and attacked the demon, and cut off the demon's body with just one blow, "Evil, spirit, drive, scatter!"

"So handsome, Mr. 99!!"

"You are a vice admiral after all, don't you have any fighting power!!"

"The part I'm good at is undercover! Undercover and espionage!!"

There really are such people! !However, the undercover agents are very hardworking, Mr. 99 does not mean to look down on them... not the time to think about these things!

The Despair Demon had just been dispelled, and the same low growls were emitted from all around. Normally, if there are living people coming down here, they may not actually encounter them.You may hear strange sounds, and you may feel nervous and scared.Only those who are particularly unlucky or deliberately killed will be eaten.

It's just that "talented people" like Mr. 99 seem to have a very special smell for demons, and they can attract these predators almost every time in this kind of place.

"The number is more than expected..." Mr. 99 muttered, but Rossi thought of something else: "Mr. 99, tell me... are these toys... people?"

Frey has said that barriers become weak or shattered where there has been mass death or catastrophe.And these toys... If they are just toys, then maybe this place is just a 'junkyard' or a 'toy graveyard'.But obviously they are not just toys.

How can there be a toy that can talk and move by itself.On the streets of Dressrosa, they can even see emotions.In this world, there is no magic - at least not in most cases.Even so, there is something similar to magic—

Devil Fruit.

"We suspect...these toys were once residents of Dressrosa." 99 told the truth, "According to the population data of Dressrosa in previous years, it can be seen that there are a large number of residents and tourists every year, Pirates disappeared in Dressrosa."

"........."

"The number of toys is also increasing...but because Doflamingo will not cooperate with us to provide accurate figures, so this is just our guess." 99 continued, "Maybe, in Doflamingo's There is a family member in the family who has the ability to turn humans into toys. After a person becomes a toy, he will disappear from the memory of other people. That’s why no one has discovered it.”

"How, how..." That is to say, even if my companion has been turned into a toy, it is impossible to know, just forget it... Rossi said, "Then, the...toys in this place, piled up Those who are together...could they all be..."

person?And among them, there may be people I know, but they have all been forgotten? ?

"Forgotten human beings." Mr. 99 once again put on an attacking stance, he said, "They are all in this place, abandoned, forgotten, and then rotted. That's why the Despair Devil was born."

Dover...Dover, how much do you really hate this world...?These people are not the reason our families are broken, not them.You clearly know, you clearly know that they are not the target of your vengeance, why... why, Dover--Doflamingo.Why do you want to do this?

Can't understand, can't forgive.Sure enough, I still can't agree with everything about you.

"Can we... can we help them? Mr. 99?"

"..." You really are a strange devil. 99 paused, and he said, "I...we are here to help them. However, my knife can only disperse the evil ghosts who are spirit bodies, but it cannot disperse the haze of this country. As long as Dovron Brother Ming will be Shichibukai one day, and the navy will be powerless against his evil deeds."

Can't approve of your actions though, Dover.But you got one thing right.

That is, there is something wrong with this world.It's wrong.Big mistake.

"In this case, Mr. 99... let me stop him." Rossi said, "You do what you can. I will do what I can. After all, I died a long time ago, It can't be said that it is the navy."

"Do you want to fight Doflamingo?"

"Maybe this is my destiny. This is also my mission, Mr. 99. I... I think that the reason why we are brothers is so that one day, I can stop him from going forward in this darkness. "
