[One Piece] Inferior Star

Chapter 515 Cannibalism in the Past

Unlike the time in Totland, this time You Xiang didn't feel any obvious discomfort or danger.Maybe it's because Duck is by his side this time, or maybe it's because it's just like what Duck said, it's just that the temple wants to tell him something.

They have been walking along the road, and they can feel that the road is always going up.It should be going to the top of the tower.When they reached a slightly open space, light came from ahead.The warm sunlight came in from the window, probably because it was nearing dusk, the sunlight had a warm yellow color, which blurred the dark passage.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Youxiang sees a figure in front of the window.She just said to take a closer look, but Duck stopped her.Dak made a silent gesture to her, then slowed down and walked forward cautiously, Youxiang grabbed the hem of his clothes and followed him.

After approaching, you can see that there is a comfortable and warm crib in front of the window.Youxiang has never seen the decoration style before. I have to say, this style is 'very Matthew'.It feels like the style that people from Matthew's hometown would have.In any case, she still felt no danger.

There was a little baby in the crib. It was hard to see from this position, but it was very obedient and did not cry. It just stretched out its little hand to the woman who was looking at it by the bed.The woman was wearing a white dress with long black hair.I didn't see it from the back, but when she turned slightly sideways, Youxiang noticed...

"Mother……?"

She is her own mother!Could it be me who is in the crib?Just thinking about it, a male voice came over: "Wendy! Here we come! Let me see her, Isaac is also looking forward to it?"

Two figures stepped out of the shadows, and when the sun shone on them, their figures became colored and clearer.It was a young man and a boy about four or five years old, and they ran to the side of the crib happily.

"Mom~ Mom!" Seeing Youxiang's mother, the boy stretched out his hand to her, and called her in a childish voice, "Is sister alright?"

"Yes, Isaac." The mother smiled nicely, picked up the boy, and put him next to the crib, "Look, she's fully recovered and won't cry all the time Oh?"

Isaac... Mom, call that kid Isaac, and, Isaac also calls mom 'Mom'? ! !Youxiang looked at all this in shock, and she reconfirmed the woman's appearance, it was indeed her mother.But, in this way, could Isaac be, is his... elder brother? ! !

Just kidding! !But in this case, it is not completely without reason that he hates himself so much.He'd known himself a long time ago...and it could be explained that he didn't know him.But why did he hate himself and...hate his mother?He's always saying 'you're exactly like that woman'...should he be referring to himself and his mother?

Although Youxiang understood some things, she felt that there were more things she didn't understand.Looking at it this way, when I was just born, the relationship between Isaac, father and mother was very good.So what happened after this?

"For a Jedi knight, getting married and having children means quitting the order." Dak explained in a low voice, "Your mother and your father fell in love with each other, and after they were married, they should have given up on being a Jedi knight." identity. And withdrew from the War of Secession of the Republic."

"By the way, there is also a war in the video outside..."

"Ah. That...that was a war that lasted for a long time. Simply put, because the enemy who started the unrest was powerful, people asked for the assistance of the Jedi Order. In order to maintain peace, the order agreed to this request. I think ... that's where the mistakes started."

Doesn't the side that joins the war violate the doctrine... After all, in a war, how could there be any 'absolute light'?However, even a powerful warrior is still a human being.Sometimes, such mistakes are unavoidable.

Darke said: "Originally... the church and the Republic were going to win. Peace is in sight, and the war will end immediately. But I didn't expect that at the last moment... the enemy's plan succeeded. They instigated the rebellion that the Republic is proud of Army of the Jedi Knights, drove the Jedi Order from behind. Many died instantly. And your mother..."

"Because she left the order just before that and stayed away from the war, she survived. It's just that it was only temporary."

Youxiang also knew what happened next.Duck once said that too.After losing a war, people like mothers are hunted down by the winning side.Because that unique and powerful power is born, even children who are not yet sensible will be killed.It was at that time that the fleeing mother was caught.

"After Mom was caught, what happened to Dad and... and Isaac?" You Xiang asked.

"I don't know. I was following your mother at that time." Dark shook his head, he said, "But... I think a lot of things must have happened. Otherwise, Isaac, he... sorry. I was I just thought the name Isaac was a bit familiar, but I didn't expect him to be..."

"It's okay, I'm surprised too." Youxiang said, "But, hasn't Dak actually met Isaac much?"

"Yes. I hardly ever saw him. At first I didn't follow your mother all the time because of maintenance, and then your mother quit the order and didn't carry me with her. Especially when I was with family when."

As if wanting to forget the past... Dak suddenly realized something when he said this: "Ah, sorry! It's not me. It should be 'he'... I guess. After all, although it looks similar, it's not me."

It's mom's lightsaber... Youxiang doesn't think there's much difference between them, since Dark himself can't tell the difference.But since he cares so much, it's okay to follow him.

At this moment, the happy family at the window has disappeared.Not even the warm sunshine shining in.Only one ordinary window was left, and the deep blue coastline of Zephenia could be seen outside.Sure enough, I went to the top of the tower...

"Is that all the Temple wants to tell me? To tell me that Isaac is actually my brother?"

"You don't look very...surprised."

Dak thought that Youxiang would have a bigger reaction.

Youxiang thought about it, and she said: "Actually, I'm really surprised... But even if it's my own brother, I don't remember him at all. He still hates me so much, and has done a lot of things to people important to me." Things. Just because of my brother, I can't forgive him, okay?"

"It doesn't matter who he is..."

"Well. Because he has done bad things, it is the family that should stop him." This was also said to Rossi.Now it falls on me... In fact, Youxiang also thought that it would be great if she could reunite with her brother, if she could recognize him normally, then she would have relatives too.But until now... Even if I know about it, it seems that nothing can be changed.

"...Master..." Do you feel... sad?Dak didn't know what to say, he just felt that Youxiang was holding on.Although the words just now should not be lying, but after all, he is a real brother. At this time... what kind of human mood will it be?

"…………Have a child……"

Huh?Still thinking about things in a daze, Youxiang heard someone talking.It doesn't look like it's over yet.She glanced at Dak, then tugged at his sleeve and continued walking into the depths of the tower with him.As they went deeper, the voice became clearer and clearer, and people could find that the voice was the same as the one in the video they had seen before.

"...when we landed and tried to find some food and supplies up there, we found out that the Empire had already been here."

The difference is that although the sound can be heard in the long and narrow channel now, the image cannot be seen.

"The town was deserted, maybe they suspected rebels or Jedi were hiding here. Everyone was executed—almost everyone. In a half-collapsed house, there was a child crying unconscious. Although Our numbers are already saturated, and our supplies are even less abundant, but in that situation, no one can be so hard-hearted as to pretend they didn’t see it.”

"Now I think...if I, or anyone else, had put my heart down, would it have turned out differently? I don't know. I can't say for sure, after all, he was just a kid. The kid is much quieter. It's just that when I look him in the eye... I feel fear."

"If only I had judged or acted on the first time I felt that way. But the vanity of an adult has killed me and killed us all. When we realize something is wrong, Twelve dead. We now have to make a decision—"

"That kid, he's not 'human' anymore."

With this announcement, the sound stopped.The road in front of him became open again, and standing in front of him was the Isaac whom Youxiang had seen many times before.

"...Isaac?" Youxiang wasn't sure if it was a phantom or real, she called out cautiously, while still grabbing Dak's sleeve.

"Ollie." 'Phantom' turned around.Unlike before, this Phantom Isaac is clearly more... more human.He looked at You Xiang calmly, without the distorted expression caused by anger and grief in the past.Looking at it this way, his brows are indeed somewhat similar to You Xiang's.

"Ollie?" Is this... the name my mother gave herself?Youxiang repeated the name.

"What's the use of you coming here now?" Isaac still said calmly, "Neither you nor I can undo anything."

"I-I just want to know about Mom and—"

"Maybe it's better if you don't know. But since that's the case, I'm here to tell you everything you want to know. My lovely sister...you are always so innocent, just like the first day I saw you . ” Having grown up so big, but still as innocent as a baby.Isaac said, "Let me tell you the truth: Everyone died. That's it. Simple, right?"

"what……?"

"Whether it's my father, my mother, or me... or those who rescued me and brought me to this planet, and then threw me on the ghost island because of fear. Everyone is dead, right?" Ai Sack smiled and said, "You're still alone. You're not even a human from this planet, don't lie to yourself, you're still an 'outsider' no matter how you pretend."

"It's not like that, Isaac...me and everyone..."

"You and everyone? No. There is no more everyone, Ollie. There is no more?" Isaac still had a smile on his face, and he said softly, "Your 'everyone' is going to disappear soon. You And still looking for those meaningless fragments here... grow up, Ollie, my dear sister. You are so naive that it makes me sick—?!!"

Before the words fell, Isaac's phantom was cut off by the purple sword light with a buzzing sound.Dake turned around and stretched out his hand to Youxiang who was still in a daze: "Although things in the past can't be changed, we still have a lot to do now. You promised Rossindi two 10 minutes to go back, now It's time. Let's go!"
