[One Piece] Inferior Star

Chapter 640 The Dirty Shrine

The feeling in the room did seem to be different from before, obviously it was only a moment... According to Lance, did that 'old god' (a part) occupy this room just now?Although I have touched it more than once, I still don't have much idea of ​​what it is.

From just now, it seems to be the embodiment of those black mist, that is to say, it may also have the ability to be like a demon... Or is it also a demon?Youxiang thought so, she looked around the room, what should I say, although the barrier doesn't seem to be a big problem, but...

"This, what is it...?" Rossi couldn't help asking, in this messy room, it was full of metal trash.Iron pipes, iron sheets, iron filings, and things like screws and nuts.It's like a place where some steel construction company dumps their trash.And even stranger than that...

In the center of the rubbish-filled room was a cleared area, and within it stood a haphazardly cobbled-together creation of metal.At first glance, it seems that the metal garbage is linked together to form an upright shape, but if you look closely, it seems to be a metal shrine.

"The great demon is... possessed of wisdom. It is a demon, and it was once worshiped as a god. But one day, it was misunderstood by people, expelled, hated, and forgotten...but it is still a demon and cannot die , and could not disappear, and finally became what it is now.”

After saying this, Lance walked up to the shrine, raised his hand and picked up the things placed on the shrine.Since it's also metal, I didn't even notice it was placed on it just now.From the looks of it, it was a short stick, like... like a sword hilt?

"We are changed by human influence, master. We are a collection of negative emotions and consciousness of human beings and all sentient beings. We are very easy to be influenced by people and then change ourselves. Whatever Isaac's desire was originally, now... …now he has no control over how things are going."

"I, I don't understand...Lance, what you mean is that all of this is not actually what my brother...isn't Isaac expecting?"

"Part of it is not. Of course, most of his wishes came true. After all, the power of the old gods is very powerful, and it is enough to create such a huge dream. It's just... all magic has a price. My master. Unless... …is something beyond this law.” That is why this shrine exists, it is beyond the law of dreams, it is not affected by it, and while trapped in a dream, the person seems to find a temporary refuge.

He created this shrine to buy himself a little time to survive the madness.Whether it was destiny or coincidence, it allowed him to live long enough to meet us.Lance handed the things in his hands to Youxiang, and he said, "Once upon a time, there was a person who tore through the dream and found a way out of it. That person was your mother, master."

"Mother……?"

"Ah. Sorry, I can't say any more...I can't make you pay a disproportionate price for this kind of thing. Anyway, please take this."

Although Lance knew almost everything, there was a lot he couldn't say.It seems that according to the 'value' of what he said, he will pay the same or even more 'price'.This also caused Lance to sometimes speak in a very tactful way.Youxiang understood that he was doing it for her own good, so she first took what Lance gave her.

She said, "This is... Could this be mother's?"

"Well." Lance smiled, and he said, "It used to be. But later, the master made him his own. It's like the master turned the curse into his own power. Not everyone can do this get things."

"That person... where did he get mom's things?" Youxiang looked at the thing in his hand, it seemed that it was indeed a sword hilt.The black and white metal splicing together looks very strong and delicate.Is this mom's relic?

"...Isaac was scared." Lance paused, and he said, "He was scared of your mother, master. So he put this thing representing your mother's last wish in what he thought was the scariest and strongest A big place. That is, beside the old gods."

"So that's how it is... The person just now ran away from the old god, so he may have taken this out at that time..." Youxiang seemed to understand, she said, "Although Isaac is very Scared, but the Old Gods probably don't care at all. And Isaac doesn't remember anything now."

Lance didn't affirm or deny You Xiang's conclusion, he just approached You Xiang and held her hand, smiled a little sadly when she looked at him and said, "I'm sorry, I can only tell you so much. I I want to protect you, master. But I am a devil, I am selfish, and I am evil. I don't want to leave your side either."

"Lance?"

"I'll be with you forever okay?" Absolutely, absolutely...so... I can't say any more.After Lance finished speaking, he disappeared in front of Youxiang.Youxiang looked at the things in her hands in confusion, then at the shrine, and said, "I always feel...the whole thing has something to do with me...these, could it be... I caused it? Rosie...?"

"Cabbage..." Don't know, not sure.But before meeting the cabbage, I really hadn't heard of demons or anything.Isaac is also Cabbage's elder brother, and his hatred also started from a distant other planet.So, is the cabbage really to blame for all this?Of course not.

If there is anyone in this world who has done nothing wrong, then she must be Youxiang!

Maybe the whole thing is indeed related to You Xiang's curse, but this curse is definitely not You Xiang's fault.What's more, all the things that happened because of this were not her fault.

"Cabbage, not like that."

"But... this is, mother's thing..." Youxiang looked at the hilt in her hand, and she said, "It's my elder brother who made everyone like this. I trampled on everyone's past, just for a certain I don't remember The reason... And this reason has something to do with me, doesn't it? Rossi..."

Youxiang seemed to understand something, she raised her head to look at Rossi, and said in horror: "Is it because of me? Is it because of my existence that everyone lost the past? It is because of me that so many terrible things happened ...Actually, this is my curse, right? Rossi...I...it's not that the curse doesn't work, but..."

"It's me cursing everyone from the beginning - woo!"

Halfway through You Xiang's speech, someone pinched her cheek suddenly. Dover clamped You Xiang's face with one hand, making her speechless, and then approached her and said, "What are you talking about? Xiang. Am I angry?"

"Well...Kesu...Dover..."

"Who do you think you are? You cursed everyone from the beginning? If you were so capable, would we still be in the state of headless chickens?" Dover didn't let her speak at all, "Don't be so arrogant You are just a little cauliflower! If you think that you control the gears of the world, don’t you make the stupidest mistake??”

"..." Dover... that's great... Rossi was relieved, he didn't know how to comfort Youxiang.She had always felt that other people's misfortunes had something to do with her, after all, it was really not auspicious to be followed by demons.It's just... It's definitely not Youxiang's fault, she hasn't done anything bad, that's the most important thing.

"Even without you, we guys could end up in other terrible situations because of our own death. Even without you, Isaac wouldn't necessarily be a better person, and your mother wouldn't necessarily be a better person. It's all about It’s just that we can’t be sure of things.”

Dover continued: "And ah, little cauliflower. We can't change the past no matter what. If you do it, you do it. You are already burdened with a curse. Instead of being afraid that the curse will be out of control and hurt you. Why don't you make good use of her while she's still in your hands! You've always done this before!"

"Umm...Dover, I...scared..."

"What are you afraid of? You're not even afraid of me." Do you know how scary people think I am?Dover let go of Youxiang's face, and then wiped her tears, "Don't be led away by the enemy. Maybe it wants this effect. That old god or something, specially 'performed' for us After so much, doesn't it prove that it is it that is afraid?"

"what……?"

"It's confusing you. It wants you to question yourself here. Youxiang. Putting your mother's belongings here is a proof." I'm afraid it was intentional, just to make you blame yourself and make you feel that everything is wrong. You alone caused it.Dover said, "The enemy has sent weapons, you just take it."

"I don't know……"

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand now, just believe what I say, Youxiang. You have forgotten too many things... Although I feel uncomfortable, the fact is that the past has made you and made you what we are now The object of the enemy's fear. That's why it wants to erase everything about you and make you self-destructive."

is that so?What did I experience before?Youxiang said, "Aren't I afraid at that time?"

"Ah. I'm not afraid at all. Of course it's not that I wasn't afraid from the very beginning. You have also experienced this state, but I was not the one who was with you at that time and said these words to you. No matter what, Little Cauliflower, Do you believe me? Then believe me. This is definitely not your fault, there is no curse on you. It is gone."

It was you who undid it, and it was you who, step by step, turned something terrible into something beautiful.This is magic only for you.Don't forget it, it's fragrant.That's why I...

"Okay, little cauliflower."

Don't look at me like that, or I will take you away regardless of the grandpa who stared at me over there, okay?Dover patted the top of Youxiang's head, and said, "We have obtained the 'sacred sword' of the brave, and next... we still have to go to the desert. Going to Crocodile is our only way."

"Dover..."

"Ah. It's okay, I'm here." Dover didn't say anything more, he just continued to touch Youxiang's head, "It doesn't matter if you continue to struggle for a while, let Rocinandi stay with you. Important things I can do it for you, that's what I'm here for, right?"

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

The author has something to say:

Garp: How dare he pinch Xiao Youxiang's face! !

Weiwei: Just, just because he is comforting Youxiang...

Rossi: Dover is indeed a very reliable person, provided he is on our side.

Dak is back—!The holy sword of the brave is the lightsaber, definitely the most handsome ever hahahahaha... But Youxiang really doesn't know how to use a sword, and Dak needs a chance to use it by himself... Hehe w
