[One Piece] Inferior Star

Chapter 464 The Beautiful Shadow of the Year

Inexplicably, Matthew pressed and got an injection!

Kira touched his pierced neck, secretly sighing that Matthew is really strong when he is serious!However, he should be looking for an excuse to check his body.It smells good, you should be in a better mood now, right?She wasn't an emotionally stable person... It's not good to blame yourself all the time, Youxiang.

That's what you told me back then, right?So... I'll help you too.

When Kira turned her head, she saw Youxiang looking at her worriedly... Why are her eyes so big, and they have no color at all, so clear... Who can resist being looked at like this! !

"Scent!"

Great, someone came to the rescue!Kira came back to her senses when she heard other people's voices. From the main building, Hiyori ran over. She looked quite excited and nervous: "Youxiang! That, that Takumi-sama..."

"Hey?! What's wrong with Takumi?!" Could he be caught in a fishing net again... no.How can you not be caught by fishing nets on land!

"Takumi-sama's sorcery, no, it should be magic! It's amazing!!" Hiyori's eyes seemed to be shining, but she looked exactly like Miss Toki, "He even has a fish's tail! So beautiful!!"

"Fish tail..." No, that's not a spell or hex, it's just the way he is... wait that's not the point!Youxiang came to her senses, and she said, "Takumi turned back into a mermaid?"

"Mermaid...?" Hearing this word, Hiyori opened her eyes wide in surprise, and then covered her open mouth with her hands, and said, "So, Takumi-sama is actually a legendary mermaid?! "

Wano country also has this kind of legend... Youxiang smiled: "Yes. Takumi is a mermaid. In order to make it easier for him to move on land, I used magic to help him turn his tail into legs."

"Legs are the magic...it's unbelievable..." Hiyori was still surprised, she said, "That's right! Master Takumi said he had something to say to everyone, and then he changed back into a mermaid. I think Yuxiang and Matthew The adults should want to hear it before calling you!"

Does Takumi have something to say... Youxiang can't think of what he wants to say, but it should be very important at this time, right?Youxiang looked back at Matthew, Matthew shrugged, and then said, "We're going to have dinner, Miss Hiyori."

"Yeah." Hiyori also smiled, and she said, "Dinner is ready. Sanji-sama and Kentaro-sama cooked very well. Let's go there quickly."

Ms. Hiyori is really beautiful... Wano Country's most beautiful woman is not in vain.Miss Shi must have been the number one beauty back then.She later left the doctor and returned to Wano Country when she was ready to accept her 'fate'... I don't know what she was thinking.It's just...she must be very happy when she is with her family.I really want to meet her again...

Thinking about such things, Youxiang and the others returned to the hall, where a banquet had already been set up, and everyone was sitting around.Looking very happy, Mr. Kentaro also said that this mansion has not been so lively for decades, and Mr. 99 is also busy entertaining everyone.

Looking at this scene alone, it is hard to imagine why everyone gathered together.

"Hiyori! Yuka! You are here!" Momonosuke happened to see this side, and he ran over and said, "Sit down quickly, you are hungry!"

"My lord, we were all in the village during this time, and we haven't been able to eat well." Hiyori said so.Before that, they were either hiding in the ruins of Bianli Village or in Jianlou Village, and they couldn't ask for food there.

"Ah! That's right! Only when you're full can you fight well, Hiyori! Let's eat more!" Momonosuke remembered something as he spoke, "If we can call Kin'emon and the others..."

"Mr. Momonosuke, although I don't want to say this, please don't tell Mr. Kinemon and others about the information you have obtained here. And Miss Hiyori too." Matthew interjected, and he said, "Before that , Our information has been leaked more than once, obviously, there are traitors among us."

"I...I don't want to doubt anyone, Your Excellency Matthew..." Momonosuke lowered his head, and he said, "However, I also understand that if our plan is leaked...we will disappoint all those who trust us people……"

"That's right." Matthew nodded, and he said, "Don't worry, I've actually narrowed down the scope...Mr. Mansfield is also helping. All the people here today are 'no reason to betray' people. You can rest assured on that."

"Is there no reason to betray..."

"Ah. Actually, I think that traitor must be from Wano Country... Although I am a little sorry for Mr. Kin'emon and the others, it is a pity that they are all very suspicious targets." Matthew thought, he said, " However, until there is sufficient evidence, I will not make any conclusions that will destroy the unity among us."

"Your Excellency Matthew is always so calm, if I can have three points of calmness and wisdom of His Excellency Matthew—"

"You will become the smartest human being in the world, Mr. Momanosuke. I think I am very pleased that you can get one point. After all, I am a super advanced artificial intelligence, and I cannot compare with ordinary people at all." Matthew didn't know whether he was praising himself or encouraging Momonosuke, he said, "Okay, there is no need to be so depressed, Mr. Momonosuke, as you said, you can only fight when you are full."

"Yes! I understand!" Momanosuke looked up at Matthew seriously, and he said, "I will be like Matthew, and treat every companion sincerely without any sufficient evidence! Never let anyone down people!"

"This is what a daimyo should have, Momonosuke-san. You've grown a lot!"

"I have learned a lot from Lord Matthew and Lord Mance!" Momanosuke seemed very happy after being praised by Matthew. He said, "I want to become a daimyo that will not lose to my father!"

"For a person like you, the first step towards meaningful growth is to set out to surpass your parents. This is a long journey, Mr. Momanosuke. Even defeating Kaido is not the [-]th part of the journey. One-tenth." Your father knew it was an insurmountable mountain, even if it was just hearsay.Matthew said, "You have to remember what you said today, and be mentally prepared?"

"Yes!" To become a father, or to surpass him... I am myself, I am Momonosuke, it is impossible to become a father, then there is only one way to go.There is only one way but to back down.

"Oh~ I really heard an amazing declaration!" At this time, the voice of Shuangyue Kang's family came.On the execution ground, after he was saved by a mysterious blue warrior, he has been hiding in Jianlou Village to heal his wounds, and this time he came here with others for safety reasons.

"Master Kang Family—"

"No, no, I'm just A Kang from Jianlou Village." Shuangyue Kang's family is dead.Let people think so.With a smile caused by the side effect of AIDS, A Kang said, "I can still see the battle of Guangyue's family, so I didn't go to that ghost gate in vain! Speaking of which, brother, you are really good! Even □□ile can be cured!"

"Of course, please look at this success story." Matthew immediately motioned to Kira who was standing aside, "Although everyone's treatment may be a little slower, I think recovery is no problem!"

"..." Akon paused for a moment, he looked at Matthew with a smile that couldn't disappear on his face, but at this time, he was not like Akon, but more like Bai Wu's famous Kang family, "here Outside of Wano... do people already have such technology?"

Mr. Kang Family... You... Matthew seems to understand his feelings, so he said: "Besides this Wano Country, there is a lush world that even the Wano Country 20 years ago could not match. If Wano Country wants to To survive, you have to start—if that's what you really want to ask."

"Ah...that man Mita..." The Kang family seemed to be sighing something, his eyes went to the far, far past, in a certain distant past day, on that day, Kozuki Mita said to himself: " I want to go to sea, I want to go outside."

"Daddy~sister!" Toko ran over at this time, and she took Hiyori's hand, "Everyone is eating! Let's go too!"

"Hey~~ It's fragrant! Haven't you finished yet?" Sabo also waved at a seat opposite, "Come here! I've reserved a seat for you! Look, the crabs are all peeled for you!"

"He won't let me eat a bite, it's delicious!" Ace complained from the side, "It's okay to give me a little bit!"

"That's right! Sabo is stingy!" Luffy also puffed up his mouth and said, "Cheech~~stingy~~Sabo~~"

"If you don't come to eat again, I can't stop them two?" Sabo laughed, and he said, "It's nothing important now, right? Leave it to Matthew! Come on!"

"Don't leave everything to me, Mr. Sabo!" Really... Matthew sighed, and he said, "However, Miss Youxiang. Are you hungry? Eat more."

"En!" Youxiang nodded, and then ran to Sabo's side. Seeing her recover, Matthew felt relieved: "By the way, doesn't Mr. Takumi have something to say?"

"Scented~~~"

Speaking of Takumi, he suddenly rushed to Youxiang, hugged her neck and began to complain: "I told you! Mr. Katakuri is so fierce to me!!"

"Don't bully the little mermaid, Mr. Katakuri!!" Yuxiang doting on Takumi's hair and condemning Katakuri very fondly.

And Katakuri said super innocently: "I just said that if he is always caught by fishing nets, he might not be a fake mermaid!"

"It's over the mark!" Takumi immediately expressed dissatisfaction.

"It's beyond the mark!" Youxiang also felt the same way, "Even if Takumi is always caught by fishing nets, it can't be said that he is not a mermaid! After all, just like humans, there are also stupid ones among mermaids!"

"Hey? Youxiang, are you helping me?" Takumi didn't react a little bit, but he immediately thought it was not important, "That's right! Youxiang, actually, there is something I want to tell you oh!"

"what--"

"what's up?"

When Youxiang wanted to ask, Ace interrupted her, and then moved Takumi to the other side of him, telling him not to hold Youxiang's neck and not let go: "You also said that there is a What important information, did you turn back into a mermaid?"

"Hmm! Because it seems... as long as I wear this bracelet, I can't use my ability." Takumi was a little troubled, he said, "Although it is very convenient, it doesn't look 'compatible' with my ability... ...Anyway, it's not what I want to say, but Miss Longque said that she has something to tell everyone!"

Miss Longque...?It is the "Ancient Sword" personified by Takumi's ability.Youxiang and the others met Longque a few times before, but it was only a brief conversation and meeting... Youxiang said: "I see, if Miss Longque thinks it is important, let's listen!"

"I don't think she's joking!" Takumi nodded, and he said, "Miss Longque is a very serious person (knife)! Then I asked her to come out!"

"Hmm." The others...Although they were having a good time eating, they were paying more or less attention to the surrounding situation, and there was no need to make it look like a meeting.Anyway, let's listen to what Miss Longque has to say.After Yuxiang responded, Takumi used his ability, he took out the ancient sword dragon sparrow, then put it on the floor, and then touched it with his hand——

A burst of white light suddenly appeared, which happened to attract everyone's attention, and when the white light dissipated, what appeared in people's eyes was a woman in red armor, beautiful yet resolute, appearing in the seat: "I'm bothering everyone."

"You, you are..."

The others are fine, but the native Wano people all showed shocked expressions.

"beautiful……"

"Master Qili?!!"

"Is it a ghost?!! Master Qili?! Why!!"

They looked quite excited, and Yuxiang, who had seen Xiaotama's calligraphy and painting, also knew that Longque's dress and appearance were very similar to the legendary female samurai Qili in Wano Country.

"Sorry, I'm not Qili." Longqueen seemed a little troubled by this title, she said, "I haven't done great things, so I don't deserve her name. My name is Longque, and I was defeated by Qili. The bone of the 'Flying Dragon' is an ancient knife made of part of the material."

"Huh...?" This is too...

It's okay if you don't explain it, but it's even more incredible when you explain it!Why...why did the knife turn into a human? ! !

The above are the things that several people in Wano Country are shouting in their hearts.

"However, my memory is not clear." However, Long Que didn't care so much, she just expressed her doubts, "I can't remember whether I was made of 'Flying Dragon' bones. It is also the source of what I want to tell you.”

"Specifically... what is it? Miss Longque?" Youxiang asked first.

"Plague." Long Que went straight to the point, and these two words cheered up many people present, "I have a vivid memory of the plague. I don't remember anything about the flying dragon, but I do remember what happened here and there before. China, there was a huge plague, and I was forged after that."

plague?Could it be... Miss Longque heard about the plague now, that's why she looked like it?

"I'm not sure if I want to tell you about this, because I'm not sure that it has something to do with what you are worried about..." Longque continued, "But...you are working very hard to collect information to save this country, I feel like I should also say what I know."

"Hmm... Miss Longque's body is indeed not made of 'bone'." Matthew raised his eyebrows, and he said, "Although the workmanship is very exquisite, the material is not much different from other knives. Isn't it I can still scan the bones... Made by the bones of the flying dragon, should it be some kind of misinformation or 'metaphor' formed over a long period of time?"

"You mean to say that the so-called 'flying dragon' is actually a metaphor for a certain event?" This is not impossible.After all, Longque is also a sword that has been around for at least a thousand years. It is normal for misinformation or the loss of metaphorical content during this period.Mansfield said, "This incident may be a natural or man-made disaster, or it may be... the 'plague' that Miss Dragonfinch remembers?"

"This is just my guess." Matthew said, "If this is the case, then this matter will become more interesting. Could it be... the plague that appeared thousands of years ago has returned?"

"Is, that kind of thing possible?" Some people sighed and doubted.

"Impossible." It was Luo who spoke.He has been sitting in a corner not far away, and only now he speaks, "Don't underestimate viruses and humans. It has been a thousand years, even if the virus itself can survive, humans may have already produced antibodies that can deal with it. How about It is said that the people of Wano country may continue to this day because they have antibodies against it."

"That's right, I'm so happy to hear professional and scientific remarks!" Matthew immediately became excited, and he said, "But! Mr. Luo! That's just in theory, and there are many real cases. ! Even if there is only a one-in-a-million possibility, it is still possible! Miss Longque!"

"Yes?" Longque was suddenly named.

"Please recall the details of the plague that impressed you most! Then tell us everything you know!"

"I understand." Long Que has been very calm, she is a reliable person, "I remember... people are dying. The plague is spreading. The figure of Lord Qi Li is running around in the barren land. Obviously at that time I should It hasn't been forged yet, but for some reason... In my memory, Master Qili and I are together. We went to many places in an attempt to seek help, and then..."

"I... I can't remember. What I saw in front of me was... water. The sea... Master Qi Li dived into the sea... On the island with the 'ghost mountain', we sank together."

That's all Long Que can recall, and her memory is fragmented, with only some horrible scenes repeated back and forth.She didn't even know if it was her memory or someone else's.

"The island with the ghost mountain...is it a ghost island?" There is indeed a mountain in that place that looks like a ghost head.Matthew said, "Sinking to the bottom of the ocean around there... well... now there's one more question to ask Doflamingo."

"Huh? Will Dover know?"

"He knows a lot, Miss Youxiang!" He definitely knows the information we need most!Matthew immediately took out a paper and a pen from his pocket, "I'll write you a list of questions now! Just ask him the questions above, and make sure he tells you all, Miss Youxiang!!"

"Matthew writes so fast!" And the handwriting is super neat! !As expected of Matthew! !Youxiang focused on strange places, she said, "Although I don't know how much Dover can answer... But listening to Miss Longque, I always feel that something...is it missing?"

"That's right, this is the problem that Doflamingo needs to solve for us! Miss Youxiang!" Matthew had already finished writing, and he handed the super long list to Youxiang, "He wants to use our existing All the intel on the site is connected, and then we know where we should go, and what to do!"

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

The author has something to say:

Matthew is now using the body, which is a robot, and his power response and so on are beyond the level of ordinary humans.In fact, what is amazing about him is that he opposes the violent party, and he can talk about it and never do it (if he can do it, he will definitely direct the rail gun).Because it is a computer, writing is the same as printing, both in speed and fonts are fast and standardized.He can paint, but the themes are mostly realistic works with references. You can ask him to recreate in a certain style (such as painting something in the style of Van Gogh), but he seems unable to create a new style by himself.

Accidentally wrote a bit long!Today there is a very small side story, which is related to the main line and Dover, oh chirp!

I'm going to draw a new cover, a Dover (or Ace)
