One Piece: The Eternal Flame

My name is Gray, a man who is evaluated by the world as having everything in his hand.

Of course these are not important, what is important is that now there is an old woman who traps me with her arms between the wall and her body.

I seem to have offended her, but why would I offend her?
Why can't I grow taller?It's all the steel bone's fault, always hitting me on the head, so that I can't be more perfect when I grow up.

But if I am too perfect, it must be a kind of harm to others, right?

I don't know what to eat tonight, but is that bear delicious? I really want to grab it and try it?
Is it time to take a shower?Are there people like me on other planets?I didn't seem to do anything when I entered this room?

Greeted very politely.

ah!Wouldn't it be too polite?
"Little friend, can you repeat what you just said?" Dr. Kureha raised Gray's chin with a finger, his tone full of danger.

Gray came back to his senses and tentatively replied, "Uh, mother-in-law, uh in the afternoon!"

His head was severely hammered to the ground, and even his whole body was beaten to the ground.

"Captain!" The pirates who had been watching the scene were anxious.

You can watch the fun just now, but now the captain has been beaten...

"Huh?" Dr. Kuleha turned his head and glanced at them, and the interrogative words squeezed out of his mouth were somewhat murderous.

Everyone stopped in unison, intending to pretend that what happened just now had never happened.

The captain was beaten?No, it wasn't that he fell down by himself.

Dr. Kuleiha turned her head in satisfaction, "Huh, it's pretty obedient."

She looked at Gray who got up from the ground, and said, "Little brat, I don't care if you are Black Flame or the captain of Black Flame, you have to know basic manners, and if I hear something about mother-in-law, it's not as simple as beating you up."

"Oh, I'm sorry." Gray covered his head and finally understood why he was beaten.

Dr. Kureha closed his eyes, "Okay, this matter is over, Colin, come with me."

"Okay." Colin nodded, looked at the captain apologetically, and then followed Dr. Kuleha into a room.

The door opened and closed, and at that moment, the axes, machetes and other medical items hanging on the wall could be clearly seen inside.

It's really worrying for Colin's life.
Gray used life return to heal his head, and he felt lingering fear, "It's so fierce, women are old..."

"Hush!" Latin covered his mouth, "Captain, it's important to save your life."

Gray nodded and changed his words: "Well, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time."

They originally stopped here for a while to replenish some supplies.

When Colin's reminiscence is over, they will leave easily.

"Kuleha, something is wrong!" The door was kicked open with a slam, and a man with a child in his arms rushed into the room.

"Hurry up, hurry up, I don't know what medicine is wrong, this child's condition is getting worse!"

He was eager to finish, and only then saw the room was full of people.

Most of them are burly and fierce, and they are not easy to mess with at first sight.

"Are you... also here to see a doctor?"

The man was not afraid at all, but ran into the house eagerly, "Sorry, this kid is more anxious, Kureha! Kureha!"

"It's so noisy!" Kureha walked out of the room angrily, and shot the man.

The bullet hit the wall behind the man, and the casing fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

"I haven't seen you for many years. You are still so frizzy." Colin walked out of the room immediately, with a bag the size of a bowl on his head.

He walked up to the dazed Hiluluk, and carried the child over, "Let me come, the quack doctor should stop treating the illness."

"You..." Hiluluk, who had an unconventional hairstyle, pointed at Colin. You talked for a long time, but didn't say another word.

The child soon took the new medicine and fell asleep again.

The parent whose child was robbed ran over to take the child away, and originally wanted to beat up the quack doctor, but seeing so many people in this room, he suppressed his anger wisely.

-

Gray yawned and sneaked out of the house just as the touching scene of the brotherhood was about to begin.

In a world of ice and snow, the gust of wind blows snowflakes and ice balls to the face of the person with pain.

Ace also ran out of the house, and hurriedly caught up with Gray, "Where are you going?"

"How did you come out?" Gray smiled.

"Because I saw you coming out."

"Hahaha, okay, then let's do something very important."

"what?"

"Catch some beasts." Gray pointed to the road blocked by heavy snow, "Do you know how winter island hunts?"

"Go to the mountain?" Ace didn't understand.

"Only when the snow stops, they will go to the mountains to hunt. Before leaving, give them more prey. Thank them for training an excellent doctor."

"...Okay." Ace nodded.

He came out because he was worried about Gray. After all, Gray was not in a good mood when he was on the boat.

"Grey, sometimes you are quite careful."

"I am very careful all the time, but some people don't appreciate it at all."

Gray licked his back molars, and the surrounding temperature rose, and the snow almost below his knees instantly turned into snow water.

Ace was at a loss, "Who are you talking about?"

"I didn't say anyone, let's go." Gray felt that it was not good to arrange others behind his back, and it seemed that he cared too much.

Fortunately, Ace is not very smart.

……

The two trekked to the mountain, and the animals they encountered, before Ace could do anything, Gray had already slashed over with his sword.

Since Cyborg gave Griffin to him, the number of times he used the sword has gradually increased, but now he doesn't use the flame very much.

On the return trip, the two dragged a few huge prey each, and walked back with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

"The country of this island will be destroyed by Blackbeard in the future." Ace said.

"Yeah." Gray nodded, "By the way, Ace, you know, people in Snow Country don't sleep."

"Snow Country? Ah, Marco said it before, he said that Tiki seems to be because of the Snow Country people, so he never sleeps or anything."

Ace said: "But I've never heard of such a country, why don't they sleep?"

Gray looked ahead, the coldness in his eyes turned into a sharp sword, "Because if you fall asleep, you will die."

Seeing his expression, Ace knew that Gray was not joking, but in the world, at least in his memory, there has never been a country like Snow Country.

"Is there really such a country? I thought Marco was kidding me."

"I didn't know before." Gray said, "I started investigating Snow Country after I became a pirate."

"Then what did you find out?"

"I beg you to forget it. The Snow Country was destroyed a long time ago, probably not long after the blank 100 years. The specific reason has not been found out, because the time is too long. Now probably only O'Hara and the World Government have relevant records."

"Then how did you find out?" Ace asked, "Didn't you stay in the New World and never go out?"

"Children don't need to know that, what I'm saying is that they die when they sleep because there are other people living in their bodies."

"what?"

"Once you sleep, someone else will wake up next time."

"No, no, I can't understand this. What do you mean there are other people alive?"

"Soul, to be precise, there is only one soul in a person's body. For example, if the real owner of this body is still there, he and I are two souls."

Gray explained: "But the body can only be controlled by one soul, so in order to seize control of the body, he and I have to fight."

"That is to say, Tiqi has not slept because there are other people's souls in his body?"

Ace felt that his brain was not enough.

"That's right. When the body is awake, other souls are suppressed. Only in sleep can souls fight each other."

"Why? Why does that person from Snow Country have such a strange disease?" Ace didn't know how to describe this situation.

"For longevity."

"long"

"Theoretically, by putting a person's soul into a new healthy body, the person will be reborn."

Gray pointed to himself. "That's my case."

It's just that Gray is relatively successful, and the Snow Country people are a failure case. For some reason, their failure still affects future generations.

In fact, as long as you think about it, the destruction of Snow Country may be inseparable from the World Government.

Perhaps it was after the world government stole the data research on the soul exchange of the snow country, in order to monopolize the technology and maintain the rule, it destroyed the snow country.

In the following hundreds of years, the world government also began to study this technology, and finally successfully put the "demon" in the devil fruit into the human body.

"Perhaps O'Hara also has such a record. Apart from asking about the historical text, this is the only thing we went this time."

Gray stopped and looked at the sky with vicissitudes. The snow was still so heavy, which made his eyes blink more frequently.

"What are you doing?" Ace tilted his head.

"Ace, there is one more important thing that I've been wanting to tell you."

"what?"

"be lost."

The snow was too heavy, and the distance was so far that even the hunters dared not go into the mountains at this time. How could they, two idiots who had just arrived, get out.

-

"Idiot, are you two idiots?"

This time, there was no need for Perry to reprimand, Kureha had already started scolding the two idiots squatting in the corner with his hands on his hips.

"With such heavy snow, even a three-year-old child knows he can't go up the mountain, yet you guys still run so far!"

"Uh, actually I have to go." Gray raised his hand, smiling a bit ugly.

"I'm on my own to keep up," Ace added.

"It's really a brotherhood." Kureha sneered, and took down the shotgun hanging on the wall.

The strange thing is that even though she is a doctor, she has more weapons than medical instruments in her house.

Anyway, there are two natural ability users, even if the bullet penetrates the heart, there will be no damage.

On the contrary, Xiruluke stood in front of the two people righteously, and scolded Kureha: "Kureha, these two people are also Colin's saviors after all, we can't treat them like this!"

A few minutes later, Hiluluk was also forced to squat in the corner.

The three of them smelled the aroma overflowing from the kitchen, looked at the other people who were talking, and decided to squat here until dinner was served.

"I'm sorry brother, I really can't beat you." Hiluluk said apologetically to the two.

"It's okay, we are already very touched that you can stand up." Ace nodded, "As expected of a friend that Colin has been thinking about."

"Oh, Colin has been thinking about me?" Hiruluke's eyes lit up, "That kid just told me that the quack doctor should die as soon as possible. He really lied to me."

"So why didn't you die?" Gray was caught between Ace and Hiruluk.

"I, after being separated from Colin, I went to the new world alone. I planned to die quietly in the new world we always wanted to reach. Then I encountered turbulence at sea and was washed to a magical island!"

Ace's eyes lit up, "A magical island?"

"What island?" Gray asked.

"An island full of pink cherry blossoms. The island is full of cherry blossoms. When the sea breeze blows, the petals are flying all over the sky. The whole world seems to be pink and white, so beautiful and gorgeous."

Hiluluk sighed with intoxication, "I decided to die on this island, but after a long time, I still didn't die. Then I went to the doctor, and the doctor said that my illness was miraculously cured."

"A magical cherry blossom forest?" Gray said in shock, "I've never been to such a place."

"I've never heard of it." Ace shook his head. "Sure enough, there are still many magical islands in the New World that I haven't been to."

"dinner's ready!"

With Chef Andrew's shout, Gray and Ace stood up abruptly.

"Yeah - let's eat!"

"What are we eating today?"

Hiluluk didn't react at all, and squatted on the spot watching the two hurried to the kitchen.

"Hiluluk, why are you still squatting there?" Colin said helplessly, "Don't you want to eat?"

"No, no." Hiluluk shook his head, and stood up abruptly from the ground, his legs felt as if they had been electrocuted for a moment.

"Hiruluk?"

"Wait a minute, my leg is numb."

"Ha, you are really stupid."

After eating a noisy meal and distributing the prey to the people in the village, the black firework is about to set sail again.

"You can come back at any time, Colin." Kureha stood with the people in the village, but only Shiruluke was nowhere to be seen.

Because of his status as a quack doctor, the latter did not get along well with the people in the village, but it was obviously impossible for him to give up this path.

Kureha returned to the house and found Hiruluk drinking alcohol alone.

"Hiruluk, since Colin is still alive, you don't need to live with his share." Kureha said: "You know it well, you have no talent in practicing medicine to save people."

Hilluluk put down the wine bottle, let out a long sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "I didn't study medicine because of Colin! I wanted the miracle of cherry blossoms that I saw that year to appear on this winter island!"

"Hmph, it's impossible for Winter Island to grow cherry trees."

"If you don't try this kind of thing, who will know?"
