[One Piece] Inferior Star

Chapter 490 The Cursed Daughter

Women live in dire straits here.

No, maybe, it's the same elsewhere.Olu has now experienced this personally, yes, personally.He has lost count of how many people have taken the opportunity to "sexually harass" him intentionally or unintentionally.right!It's sexual harassment!If Marshal Sakarsky found out, he would definitely be thrown into the magma in the name of 'justice'.

God knows how Reiju endured all this and still smiled, but Iji's face turned green.Mansfield also seemed to have been touched several times, and his smiling face couldn't hold back anymore.This ghostly place is really not for people, let alone asking for information, the Orochi people are all drunk, and Kaido's people are all gathered in a corner, like no one should enter... Where did Youxiang go?

With this in mind, Olu began to look for Yuxiang here. If she cried twice after being harassed, Whitebeard would have to descend from the sky to end the rule of Orochi early.Maybe Garp can kill him from the Navy Headquarters to have a theory with Kaido.Why is this little girl's backstage so scary!But don't cry somewhere...

Immediately he found Youxiang, she was indeed surrounded by people, but all the idlers consciously stayed one meter away from her, because she was sitting on the big billboard "Plague" Quinn and " Fire' Ember eating popcorn right under his nose.But there really is her, why should I worry about her!

Olu realized that he was thinking too much, and Youxiang had more backgrounds than he imagined.There is no need to worry about yourself.And... the bastard at the back has already touched him several times, so no one will notice if he stabs him back now! !

Olu turned around abruptly, just about to teach that sexual harasser a good lesson, but he didn't expect that person's hand to be grabbed first!Maybe he made the big snake angry again in order not to cause trouble, and the man immediately smiled apologetically and ran away.Olu looked at this person who 'saved' him, and was a little surprised——

"Ah, it's you."

"...You are blushing!!" Yiji felt a little disgusted for no reason, he just gave his hand a little, after all he also felt that the person just now was disgusting!Ah, why am I so excited!

"I'm sorry!" Accidentally... Accidentally replaced the girl's perspective!Olu came back to his senses immediately, and he said, "Is it okay not to protect your sister?"

"Reiju can protect herself." Don't look at her smiling, maybe the people who praised her were poisoned.Iji replied, "This place is too messy. Go outside."

"Do you say that to the other little girls?"

"...When I didn't say it just now, why don't you go to Mansfield and stay there."

"No, just pretend I didn't say it just now. His side is also the hardest hit area for sexual harassment."

The conversation between the two became more and more weird. Fortunately, Youxiang's voice came over at this time: "Hey~~Omiaoko~Mr. Iji! Come and eat popcorn! It's delicious!"

How does she know how to eat!

The voices of the two people overlapped.Youxiang is calling them to go to the two most difficult 'enemies' in this place!But since they have all been greeted, they have to go... Before the two of them could move, Kagawa, whose face was already blue, had already moved first: "I want to eat popcorn too!!"

"Oh boss too... Wow, when did Miss Reiju come here..." Youxiang just turned her eyes and found that Reiju was already sitting beside her.Because she has been under the "protective umbrella" of the big billboard, she has no idea how "unfriendly" this party is. "Eat more popcorn!" All she knows is that popcorn is delicious.

"Oh~~ they are beauties! Two beauties!" Quinn didn't mind much, he likes beauties, although in his heart, Xiao Zi will always be his favorite, but he can't quench his thirst from afar. Anyone who didn't read it said, "Mansfield, you have a good eye. Where did you find these two?"

"It's just good luck..." The smile on Kagawa's face almost froze.Although no one would harass him here, he still had to keep smiling, "Among them, I would like to thank Ms. Xiangxiangzi for being a matchmaker, so I could find such a beautiful person as Ms. Omiaoko."

"Hahahahaha! This Xiangxiangzi is quite capable!" She also introduced Meixia sauce to herself before.Quinn didn't seem to be suspicious at all, he laughed hahaha, enjoying the wine Reiju poured him and the food that Okumoko brought him.

Although he is not a likable object, at least he will not be fussy and can make others not fussy, so Reiju and Okuko are quite happy.

"...It's suspicious." Quinn was a fool.Jhin glanced at Quinn, lowered his voice and said closer to Youxiang, "You are suspicious, Xiangzi."

"Hmm..." Youxiang almost choked on a piece of popcorn, and she swallowed for a long time before she said, "I just know a little more people, Mr. Jin. You see, there are such people, right? ?”

"That being said..." But everyone you know is too 'just right' isn't it?Quinn likes that Summer, you just know Summer, he likes women, you just happen to be able to introduce beautiful women to Mansfield and bring this place.It's as if he deliberately wanted to get close to the powerful, but the target was not the big snake, but Quinn, no...

Whose target will be Quinn! !The target is not Orochi, but Master Kaido...?

Jhin thought about this in his heart, and he said, "Your breath gives people a feeling of deja vu. Xiang Xiangzi. Do you know a man named Isaac?"

Isaac's name appeared again... It seems that he is really around Kaido, and these Kaido's cronies know him (and don't seem to like him very much).But it's not good to admit it now, so let's pretend to be stupid.Youxiang said: "I don't know...Master Jhin, Ai...Sa...what, the name is so strange! It's as strange as Master Mance's name!"

"..." Don't you know?Jhin couldn't tell if Youxiang was lying, after all, he really didn't have any special evidence.Only...he said, "Son of the Damned."

"Huh?" What did he say?

"Once...my people used to call people like you 'son of the curse'. People like you and Isaac." Jhin's voice was still very small, and only Youxiang and a few people nearby could be heard.But except for You Xiang, everyone else pretended not to hear anything and continued talking to Quinn about irrelevant things.

"What do you mean...? People like us, what do you mean? Lord Jhin?" What does he know...?What did he mean by 'his people'?You Xiang didn't quite understand.

"It's an ominous sign." It means literally.Jhin tilted his head slightly, wondering if it was an illusion, the flames behind him became brighter at this time, "As long as people like you appear, it means ominous. Usually they will be exiled...or even killed directly. Over time, cursed The son of the son appeared less and less frequently, and finally almost disappeared. Isaac was the first one I saw."

Frey said that demons are deadly to humans.Many times, people who are possessed by demons will lose their minds, and there is no way to recover.Only killing them can stop them from eventually turning into monsters and hurting other people.And those who have such talents as themselves are often more likely to become the target of demons, so they are also spurned, feared, and expelled by others...

That's what Jhin said.His people probably also have this tradition... When they meet people with talents, drive them away or kill them to protect others from harm.

However... Obviously, it is not necessarily possible to be possessed by a demon, it is just easier.Obviously, it is possible to resist the temptation of the devil, and it is obviously possible to live a better life, just like myself... No, my situation may be more complicated, and those "simple consequences" and "simple tragedies" are already too many There are so many that people have to make a choice.

"Master Jhin's people... what are they?"

"That's not what you should be asking."

"I'm sorry..." It seemed to make him angry.Youxiang lowered her head and didn't ask any more questions.He probably hates himself very much, after all he said something like an 'ominous omen'... and it's not completely unreasonable... Youxiang was a little depressed, she ate a few more rice crackers, Jhin didn't say any more, the surrounding The laughter immediately overshadowed these little unhappiness.

"I'll get you some more wine, Mrs. Quinn." After a while, Reiju suddenly said, "Xiangxiangzi, can you help me?"

"Hmm, um...?" Youxiang subconsciously followed Reiju, and they walked out of the noisy place together, and they stopped after walking for a while: "There is no problem here, let's take a rest." , fragrant."

"Miss Reiju?"

"It's a little breathless inside." Reiju turned around and smiled at Youxiang, "Let's rest here for a while."

"Yeah." That's right...the inside is smoky.It was such a quiet night... Youxiang looked up at the bright moon in the yard, and she said, "Thank you, Miss Reiju. You just heard what Mr. Jin said to me, didn't you?"

Reiju didn't answer right away, she took Youxiang's hand and sat with her on the side of the yard before she spoke: "Ominous omens or something... I think it's only relatively speaking."

"I, I know that you don't need to take such words to heart, but not everything Mr. Jin said is wrong." Youxiang sighed, and she said, "I may indeed hurt other people in some places. Frey also said that the dream world and demons are not good for people's health. Ace even handed over an eye for me. I did hurt everyone, Miss Reiju."

"I understand what you mean." Even if other people are voluntary, I can't make it through.It's a good thing I have such feelings... It's a good thing I can understand.Otherwise, at this time, no one can listen to you.Reiju said, "But this shouldn't be considered a 'bad omen'. I let Sanji go before, too?"

"……what?"

"He was imprisoned by his father and put on an iron mask. I... have no way to betray my father, and I don't have the courage to face the fate after that, so I can only choose to let him escape." Reiju said, "I I must have hurt my father, and I must have hurt Sanji too. Even though I am his daughter, I am obviously his older sister, but I couldn’t do anything, and I couldn’t satisfy anyone.”

"That's not the case, Reiju-san!" Don't think so!

"But I don't regret it, Youxiang." Reiju looked at Youxiang who was a little anxious and smiled, "I don't regret it at all. So you don't have to regret it. Our life now...is missing any of the past The decision may not be reached, and the things you regret may be the key to making you smile now, and no one can know for sure."

Regret is useless... Dover seemed to have said so to himself.He doesn't regret it either, whether it's killing Rossi or ruling Dressrosa.Although it's not good to use him as an example...but...he...and Miss Reiju are right.Regret is useless, as long as the ending achieved now is what one wants, then maybe... the past is not wrong.

——Of course Dover's ending must have never occurred to him.This is his punishment as a bad guy, so I won't mention it.

"Miss Reiju... Do you feel happy?" Youxiang suddenly asked this question, "Everyone is asking me this question...whether Grandpa, Ace, or Luffy...everyone wants to know about me. However, I also want to know about everyone. Ms. Reiju... After meeting me, does Ms. Reiju feel unlucky or lucky?"

I thought the answer to this question was obvious.What a silly child... Reiju touched Youxiang's head with a smile, she didn't speak, because behind Youxiang, Iji had already walked over.He sat on the other side of Youxiang without saying a word, and then handed her a bucket of popcorn: "Eat more."

"Mr. Iji?"

"Eat more and you won't be all over the place thinking silly questions." Do we feel happy?Are you talking nonsense!We didn't even know what happiness was, it was stripped from our consciousness like everything else - until you popped up there with a motherly smile and said: be happy!

Nobody had ever mentioned the word to us before then.Before that, we didn't even know the concept of happiness.

So there is no need to ask!Fragrant!You—you... Yizhi said: "You will know when you marry me."

"No, there is no one who proposed with popcorn, Mr. Yiji." Youxiang refused very simply.

"Then what do you want? I'll bring it to you no matter what it is. Can you marry me?"

"The tone is like a threat! Be gentler!"

"You finish your request at once, and I will finish it all for you. Do you want to marry me?"

"Didn't I just refuse!"

"Then I'll ask tomorrow."

"Miss Reiju, look at him!!" It doesn't make sense at all!Youxiang turned around and filed a complaint, not forgetting to eat popcorn, "I have to say strange things every day! Mr. Yiji is so strange! He actually thinks that he can make a successful marriage proposal by doing this! He is so strange!"

"Hahahaha..." Reiju couldn't hold back her laughter, she saw her younger brother's usually expressionless face showing a little bit of grievance and confusion, so she laughed even louder, "Maybe you should tell What should he do normally?"

"That's right, Mr. Yiji definitely doesn't know." Youxiang thought it made sense, she turned around and said to Yiji, "Mr. Yiji, listen carefully, before two people get married, they need to date first. Take a look at each other Is it suitable for me, to create some good memories, and then to think carefully before getting married?"

"How long will it take to think about it?" Yi Zhi was listening carefully, he was really serious.

"It depends..."

"I've thought about it. I want to marry you."

"So let's date first!"

"Hey... okay. Then according to what you said, start from this step——"

"You think so beautifully, who wants to date you!!" I was almost about to say 'yes', but you got involved!Youxiang woke up in time, and she said, "There are still some procedures to go through before dating, you have to confess and then I agree to it!"

"It's so troublesome! Can't you simplify it!"

"No."

"Then I'll confess now and you promise me!"

"No!!"

"why?!"

"You actually asked why directly! This is a very important thing for people! After all, if you become a lover, you can do anything! So people have to think about it for a long time!!"

"Huh???" Can you do anything?Iji showed an unprecedented puzzled expression, and he said, "I just want to be with you forever. Does this take you to think for a long time? Do you hate me that much?"

"That's not the case!" Can't tell at all!Youxiang felt that if she continued talking, there would be no end to it!She immediately changed the subject, "Okay! Now is not the time to talk about this, we still have a very important task, Mr. Iji! Alright! Let's exchange information now! It's about the plague!"

You changed the subject again!If you say you can't beat me, just change the subject!Yizhi was terribly wronged, but there was nothing he could do.He didn't want to see Youxiang lose his smile more than he felt wronged.After all, that smile is only available to Youxiang now that her mother is gone.

The mother's smile must have been taken away by herself... She died early in order to 'save' herself and her brothers.Don't want this to happen again.I don't know what it is that is about to come out in my heart, and Iji feels a little uncomfortable.He also felt now that it might be good to change the subject.

"I heard people talking about the plague in the wilderness." Reiju said at this time, "Everyone seems to think it's a natural disaster. Quinn doesn't seem to know anything."

"Well... If Quinn really did it, he should have some measures to protect himself or not to hurt his teammates." After all, the plague is not easy to control.And now, like everyone else, he is enjoying the banquet for no apparent reason.Youxiang said, "Mr. Peggy Wan and Miss Runty don't know much about it, and they don't even seem to care too much..."

"I heard someone mention Qili." Yiji said, "It is said that when you were sick, there was a tradition of praying for Qili's blessing to recover from the disease. But Qili is obviously the hero who killed the flying dragon. Why she blesses her health also has her own reasons. It seems that It’s because the rumors have become fragmented over time.”

After all, it happened a long time ago, so it is difficult to restore what the beautiful story is like.Mr. Xing Shoulang said that Miss Shi once mentioned that Qili jumped into the sea as a sacrifice in order to quell the plague.So at that time, she may have really successfully cured the plague, so people would pray to her as if she were a god.

It would be great if Miss Shi was here... She must know more.How much this popular plague is related to the legend of Qili, if Miss Shi is here, she will know immediately.

Accidentally depend on other people.Pull yourself together!Youxiang said: "That's right! Mr. Iji, Ms. Reiju, in fact, the white knight is on his way to Wano..."

"White Knight??" The one on Shit Island?Iji can remember him, "Isn't he dead??"

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

The author has something to say:

Just before BigMom was brought to Onigashima to meet Kaido, BigMom mentioned that Jhin belonged to an ancient race that was long extinct.It's still a mystery what he is, but it's interesting and I like him.

Iji: Is the bastard who took so much effort to find his mother and defeat it alive? ?not dead? ?

White Knight: Didn't expect that! !hey ha! !

The next chapter of the White Knight is coming, and the first thing he has to face is—the breath of water! !
