[One Piece] Inferior Star

Chapter 447 The Nun and the Children

What is justice?Brother, when you became a white knight, did you also think about this question?

What does the person who turned you into a white knight want you to be?As a white knight, you firmly believe that you are the embodiment of justice.However, becoming the embodiment of justice is not easy.In other words, if you don't know what justice is, then of course you can't be the embodiment of justice.

"But, maybe, we don't have to be righteous."

Here is a small chapel built by unknown who built it.Perhaps a long time ago, before Wano country was touched by Kaido, this country could still accommodate a small church.It can be seen that the few utensils left here have been carefully cared for by someone—until that person disappeared.

The church is cleverly hidden in a small cave, which can only accommodate a few people to pray. In particular, there is no cross or statue of God in it, but the mountain is hollowed out to let the outside light through. Coming in, the light cast a cross like a four-pointed star on the church floor.Perhaps, this is naturally formed.

Sister Chiharu enshrined her elder brother's mourning hall here.No one will bother you here.Put the only photo of my younger brother in a corner and let the sun shine on it.When I have nothing more to pray for, brother.Your sin will be paid for.

We don't have to be righteous.We cannot be righteous.

Then let me... let me, together with you, find another way.

"Qianchun, you are here."

Still praying, Qianchun heard the voice of her companion. She raised her head, turned around and smiled: "Holy Son, why are you... Huh? These children are...?"

"You don't know yet. It happened suddenly...we just learned the specific situation." The Holy Son gestured to the small group behind him, and then said about the devil again, "Because the rare combat power has become That's why I came to you. Can you do me a favor?"

"Of course." If it's about destroying the demons, then I...then I have a duty to do so.Qianchun said without any hesitation, "I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen. I'm no stranger to dealing with demons, but it's the first time I've seen such frequent incidents caused by different demons, Holy Son."

"After all, it is in this kind of place. It is generally difficult for things like demons to affect us. But..." But Wano Country is different.It's already crumbling.The holy son spread her hands, and she said, "Here, it's useless to just pray to God?"

"Don't get me wrong, Holy Son." Qianchun smiled like a spring breeze after hearing this, and at the same time drew a sharp blade from under the long headdress of the nun's uniform, "I didn't pray to ask God for help, but to let God help me. He forgives me for driving duties in his place."

"...Did God forgive you?"

"I don't know. I don't really care."

Qian Chun curled her lips, and she said: "Let's go kill the devil, Holy Son. Speaking of which, is that child fragrant?"

If you don't care, who the hell are you praying to?No... Maybe, you're praying for someone else.Not for myself, but for someone else.The Holy Son looked at the photos in the depths of the church, she didn't say much, anyway, this is someone else's business.

"It's Youxiang and her... troublesome friends." Very troublesome kind.Shengzi bent down and pinched Youxiang's little face while talking, "After the age was stolen, not to mention her, even the other brats have become a little cuter."

"After all, everyone has cute moments~" Qianchun was still smiling. She wanted to touch the top of Luo's head, because Luo looked cute with a furry hat, but she was immediately avoided.She realized that although these people have become children, they have not changed at all on the inside, and they are not cute at all.

"Don't be fooled by appearance, Miss Nun. Whether it was before or now, these people must not be cute." Except Miss Youxiang.Matthew shook his head, he said, "In any case, we have already learned that Miss Summer's situation is urgent, so there is no further delay."

"Ah. So what do you need me for?" said the nun.

"If you can, watch the kids." Nuns and kids, isn't that a great combination?Matthew said, "With all due respect, I don't want to take any of these brats with me. If I have to help, I can only hug Miss Youxiang, no more."

"It's because of his appearance that I came to you." Shengzi pointed to Matthew, and she said to Qianchun, "It might be dangerous for these people to meet that demon again, so you take them with you. Hibari, let's go back to Mika's side together. I'll leave it to you there."

"I see." Taking care of the victim is also very important, although it is a pity, but here it is left to more professional people.Qianchun put away the weapon as he spoke, "Then let me take care of them. Are Son and 99-kun going to find that demon?"

"99 is going to go on patrol. After all, Wano Country's barrier is very fragile. If we are distracted, maybe other guys will come out in disorder, and this will be endless." Shengzi said and tidied up She flicked her knife, "It's just a jealous demon, I'll deal with her alone."

Now that you've said that, it's totally fine.Qianchun understood what she should do, her smile was still bright: "Then let's visit Miss Mika together. Don't be naughty, okay?"

Before she finished speaking, the 'children' all hid behind Matthew.

"It seems that they like you more, Mr. Matthew. As a nun, Chiharu is a little sad to be neglected by the children~"

"Put away that Gatling-like thing when you say this!" Why are you afraid of being afraid? Do you have no points in your heart!Ah no!Why are these women so scary!Isn't it better that Mr. Marco is more suitable for watching children!Just go back and find Mr. Marco!

Matthew calmed himself down a little, and he said, "No matter what, let's act on our own, Miss Shengzi."

"Ah. You guys go to Mika now, and I'll deal with the devil. But..." Shengzi said, "The girl who is possessed is called Channa. Being possessed by a devil is very dangerous... If she If I can't resist, then I can't guarantee that she will survive."

"Huh?" Chanel...?Youxiang didn't expect this at all, she thought that as long as she found Miss Shengzi, she wouldn't have to worry, "Is it possible that Miss Channa will die?"

"Ah. It's better to say that she is on the verge of death now." She has already been possessed.The Holy Son said bluntly, "Demons are such a dangerous existence for human beings. Don't have any illusions about them, it's just that your situation is quite special."

"I'm sorry..." Miss Chanel...

"Hey! You're talking too much!" It's not Youxiang's fault!Ace immediately blocked Youxiang behind him, "Youxiang didn't become like this because of her own will, not to mention that this demon has nothing to do with Youxiang. Wano Country is already like this, even if there is no Youxiang, this matter would have It will happen again, won't it?"

"..." That's what it said.The son's eyes were slightly indifferent, and she said, "However, the sooner you accept this, the better. Similar things may happen in the future. If you wait until then to realize it, it will be even more unacceptable. Yes fragrant."

Youxiang didn't know what to say, she hid behind Ace and grabbed his clothes.Demons are demons.They are... are harmful to humans.I know this myself.However, Frey and the others have been with me all the time, and they haven't done anything beyond their duty during this period. I really can't hate them.

But...Miss Shengzi was right.Even if you can't hate, you can't treat them as... as 'good people'.

What should I do... Will Miss Chanel die because of the demon?If it becomes like this...

"It's really helpless...Miss Exorcist. Don't put so much pressure on her." Frey appeared next to Youxiang at this time, and he raised his hand to touch Youxiang's head, "You think she's emotionally unstable What will happen after that?"

"Aren't you quite related, devil." Shengzi smiled, and she said, "Since you are out, come with me."

"Ah??" Are you saying that just to get me out!You are too inhuman!

"What I said is also true. Human beings cannot live innocently...especially you, Youxiang." You should be more vigilant.After the Holy Son finished speaking, he started to walk, "I'm leaving. Hurry up and follow me! Devil!"

"I won't listen to you!" Stop talking about her like that!Frey didn't want to move at first, but Youxiang grabbed his clothes.Grabbing his sleeves with small hands, he said tearfully, "Frey...Miss Chanel, can you save her?"

"Hey..." Frey sighed, and he said, "That terrible woman is right. The chances of survival are very low... But, it is not impossible. As long as she can defeat the demon herself, she can survive come down."

"Should, how should I help her? Frey..." I...Youxiang said, "Maybe what Miss Shengzi said is right...but I... still can't hate Frey, and I can't hurt other people." Man... I'm sorry... But, but help me save Miss Kane? She's innocent..."

"Don't cry..." Okay, okay.I see.That exorcist spoke too harshly, didn't he?She can't bear to see us doting on you too much and not telling you the cruel truth.If it was her, maybe she could really make you a normal human being, but ah...

As he spoke, Frey raised his hand to wipe Youxiang's tears: "I'll help her. I promise you, I'll keep Chanel alive. Trust me? Youxiang?"

"Demons can't talk, Frey..."

"Exactly." But they will steer things in their favor.Maybe that exorcist can save you, but I... won't let her do that, okay?Frey stood up as he spoke, "I'll leave for a while. Let arrogance stay with you for a while."

Sabo is here, letting Xiaoxi out will kill him.Although Sabo is a child now, but now... Youxiang grabbed Sabo's hand in time, and didn't let him do anything that a child should not do: "It's okay, Sabo."

"It's not all right!" Why!What's wrong with the people in this place? ?Even with good intentions, there is no need to make you cry!Sabo was furious, "We just want to treat Youxiang as a treasure, what's wrong with that?!"

"That's right. Although... there is nothing wrong with being independent and strong, but there is nothing wrong with being loved." Katakuri walked over, and he said, "Yuka...you once told me that it doesn't matter if you are not strong. It’s okay to relax a little bit. I want to tell you the same thing now. It’s okay to be naive.”

"Mr. Katakuri..."

"I'm here. If I say yes, I can." I still have this confidence.Katakuri said, "Just do what you want. I don't want you to change yourself for someone else's idea." I don't want you...to become like me.

"The one from Charlotte's family is right this time, you are sweet." Luo also said immediately, "I don't know about other demons...but Mr. Cora is Mr. Cora. ​​You can trust him completely. You can also completely trust him." You can trust me. You don’t have to change your mind about someone you trust for someone else’s words.”

"Well..." Thank you.thank you all.Because I've always been protected like this, that's why I naively wanted to save everyone.Although I don't hate that kind of thinking, although I still hope that everyone can be happy, but... Maybe Miss Shengzi is right.If I can't be strong enough to face reality...

I might actually hurt someone close to me one day.Because the devil is also a devil.But now I am not afraid.With everyone around me, I can... I can face it.

"..." Holy Son, you may be a little too worried.Maybe this kid is...safer than you think?Chiharu saw everything.She walked up to Youxiang now, and then smiled at her, "Okay. Now let's go to Meixia. I think, no matter what, Meixia needs us now."

"Yeah." Youxiang nodded, and she said, "Did I offend Miss Shengzi? Sister Qianchun?"

"No. She's just worried about you." Sister Qianchun smiled, and she touched Youxiang's little face, "She has always been fighting alone, so maybe she is not very good at expressing tenderly. I think, she only……"

"I don't hope that one day, you will experience what she has experienced."

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Shengzi was afraid that one day Youxiang would cause tragedy because he trusted the devil too much.After all, demons are demons.

Sabo: How angry!I make her happy every day!As a result, your two sentences one by one made her cry! !I'm furious!

Ka [-]: I said that you are allowed to be self-willed, but no one dares to say no.So you can be self-willed, just say I am used to it.

Ace: I cried several times in half a day!If it weren't for the fact that I can't remember now the place would have burned up.

Luo: I want to marry Youxiang.
