Pirate Vice-Captain Heart

Chapter 520 THE514, Green Flame

Although Evelyn lived for five or sixty years, in these decades, more than half of her time was due to insanity, living in a secluded place, and her mental age was no more than thirty.

And once "Doctor Ethan" is mentioned, Evelyn looks like a guy who has been dazzled by hatred. At this time, Evelyn's ability to judge things has greatly decreased, and at the same time, it has improved... Rich imagination.

Doctor Ethan conspiracy theory?
This one sounds like a perfect fit.

"Could it be...that guy Ethan planned all of this? Helen too? Sacrifice too?" Evelyn asked with a trembling voice.

Ace didn't answer, but his expression said it all.

"Then...then haven't I been living at his mercy?" Evelyn looked at her hands, as if she could see the blood on them, "I, I... have been doing this all this time. What a bastard..."

"It's okay. Even if you realize it now, it's not too late." Ace said with a smile.

"I... by the way, you guys, are you still poisoned? I'm so sorry, I'll just take your place now... eh! No! I don't have any antidote at all! What should I do then!" Evelyn became Panic.

"Calm down." Ace said helplessly.

"How can I calm down! It's my fault, so I have to pay you back... Huh? You guys, it's been 2 minutes already, right? But you're still alive?" Evelyn looked at them in surprise.

"Because it takes a little time to accumulate some of this flame. Although this kind of flame has no offensive power, it is really used to save life at critical moments."

A turquoise flame burst out of Ace's hand, and the flame burned all over Ace's body in an instant, and Ace shot out a spark in the direction of Franky.

Frankie got up subconsciously and wanted to hide, but thinking that Ace would not do anything to harm them, he honestly caught the flame and let the flame burn all over his body.

When the turquoise flames enveloped the whole body, there was a sizzling sound, and this sound lasted only for two or three seconds before dissipating with the flames.

At this time, Frankie only felt that he was not as uncomfortable as before, and at the same time, his body became extraordinarily light, and he felt that the world had become fresh.

"This is a purifying flame, which can eliminate all harmful substances in the human body... It's like giving the human body a thorough cleansing. This kind of purifying flame has an unexpected restraint effect on poisoning and the like. It's just It is very troublesome to create this kind of flame in the body, and it took a few minutes to create two purification flames." Ace said.

"So this is what we were waiting for..." Franky murmured.

Ace said in his ear before that he was asked to pretend to be poisoned for the time being, so it was because of this flame.

However, such a powerful flame can be produced in just a few minutes... Franky should say, is it worthy of a fire fist?
"You... have you been lying to me before?" Evelyn asked hesitantly.

"Yes and no." Ace only answered these four words.

Evelyn just stared straight at Ace, with hesitation in her eyes that wanted to believe but couldn't believe it.

Looking at Ace with such eyes, I don't know why he suddenly remembered that when he and Luffy first met, that little guy also looked at him with these eyes.

Ace laughed twice, took two steps forward, and habitually raised his hand to rub Evelyn's hair.

"Enough is enough, Evelyn. Ethan did something wrong, but after all these years, he has already repaid the mistakes he made in the first place. The one who has been refusing to forgive is you refusing to forgive yourself... ..."

Evelyn burst into tears when she heard the last sentence.
-
Not long after that, when Luffy riding Garuda (Huang Xiaohong) came here, what he saw was this scene.

"Are you scaring other children?" Luffy jumped down from mid-air and said to Evelyn, "Don't worry, I'm here, these big brothers won't bully you."

Usopp, who followed closely behind, also rushed over and said, "The big brother with a long nose is here, don't cry. If you don't cry, there is sugar~"

At this time, Luffy and Usopp still thought that the little loli in front of them was what they met on Long Chain Island two years ago.

There is no sense that the enemy is in front of you.

Huang Xiaohong, who was the last to come over, said even more.

"The little monk believes that it is not just to bully a child, whether the other party is an enemy or not."

Evelyn sobbed and looked up at the three people guarding her, then...

"Wow~~~"

I cried even more.
-
After Ace's explanation, the three of them finally understood something.

And at this moment, they seemed to remember something they had forgotten...

"Oops! White!" Ace's expression changed drastically.
-
When everyone finally remembered White who was swallowed into the jelly's belly, the iron ball seemed to be hanging and hanging.

Evelyn choked up and looked at the crowd, then asked Jelly to spit out the iron ball.

White struggled to climb out of the protection of the Zero prototype, and by the time Zero returned to human form, it looked tattered.

"How's the situation now? Have you...convinced her?" White asked.

"Well, sort of." Ace replied, turning his head to look at Evelyn, who was still crying loudly.

"Then what should she do? Can't just leave it alone?" Franky asked.

"But we can't take her with us..." Usopp said in embarrassment, "Besides, although there is no problem for the time being. But what happens when she stops crying, not necessarily."

Luffy stretched out his hand to take Evelyn with him, but Jelly was one step ahead of her and protected Evelyn who was crying.

"What the hell is going on with that thing! Don't get in the way!" Luffy shouted, "GONMUGONMU..."

"Wait, Luffy." White said hastily, "This jelly is very poisonous, even you can't stand it... I think we should leave Evelyn alone. Besides the poison, she is still As a starlight fruit user, her ability is definitely enough for her to protect herself..."

But White's voice hadn't finished yet, and at some point in front of them, black undead gathered one after another.

If you look carefully, these people are all dead soldiers from the first and third teams.

And the two red-faced souls are in the lead, one is a thin old man with white beard and hair, and the other is a samurai of Wano country who is not tall and looks wretched.
