Vice Captain of One Piece

Chapter 108 The Witch Reappears?

"However," Sauron said indifferently, "since he brings up this topic now, it means that the war back then was not that simple. Maybe the 'Bloodthirsty Witch' is still alive and is still around here... ..."

"Yes, that match was actually, we lost..." Qingzhi stood up and put his suit jacket on his shoulders, and said without emotion: "And it was a shameful loss, it should be regarded as the most embarrassing thing in the history of the navy. However, for the sake of the navy's face and prestige, the headquarters made up the news. And she seemed to be dead, and she disappeared for five years with that eye, making it impossible for the navy to find out, so the world's talents would think she died in pursuit of the navy."

"..." After hearing the news, Sanji, Nami, and Usopp, who were stunned for a moment, glanced at each other, then stared blankly at Qingzhi who said this amazing news.But Zoro just had a flash of surprise, and then calmed down, while Chopper asked loudly in surprise: "The navy lost the battle??? She escaped?? Really or fake??"

"You underestimated that eye's ability too much. At the beginning, we rushed forward because we didn't know the danger of that eye, and that resulted in the defeat..."

"But it's too ridiculous for you to say that?" Sanji frowned and analyzed with a cigarette in his mouth: "Although her reward is a bit high and her ability is a bit weird, the sea soldiers are not so weak, right? Are there any other two generals today? There must be no lack of devil fruit ability users or other powerful people among them. How can a 12-year-old girl beat you? Even if she has strong abilities, she is not physically strong. Maybe it's very strong?"

"That eye is called the eye of the six realms of reincarnation, and it possesses a powerful power that does not exist in this world, that is, it possesses the ability of the six realms of hell, namely, the first realm - the realm of hell, the second realm - the realm of hungry ghosts, and the third realm - the realm of animals , Four Paths - Asura Path, Five Paths - Human Path, Six Paths - Heaven Realm Path. At the age of 12, that girl was already able to use those abilities proficiently, and she herself is also a devil fruit capable person, but she put The information about the awakening of the reincarnation eye was hidden, and no one found it." Qingzhi paused, looked at the figure hiding behind Luffy and said, "The war lasted for about an hour and ended. The situation is very simple. , 1 sea soldiers were almost wiped out in the hell way, and it took only a few minutes, but she seemed to have been seriously injured because of it, and her left eye should not be able to use it, but she didn't know what medicine she had taken. Recovered physical strength, used tricks to kill a lieutenant general. And hypnotized another lieutenant general as a pawn a long time ago. After I fought with her for nearly an hour, she finally showed up because of lack of physical strength. It was a flaw that made Kizuru hurt her leg. When we thought we could easily seal the eye, the chess piece she placed destroyed the tool and saved her. And Kizuru and I She was locked in a cage of blue flames, unable to move. So I clearly know that she is definitely not dead, and she may be here now!"

"It's a lie..." Nami with pale lips couldn't help trembling slightly: "All 8 sea soldiers were wiped out...killed a lieutenant general...contained a lieutenant general...trapped the remaining two name……".

"One hour...I hurt my leg..." Chopper, who was a little confused when he heard it, suddenly seemed to remember what it was. He looked at Encore who was hiding behind Luffy, and his eyes stayed on her thigh. , it vaguely remembered that when it came down from the empty island, it did see a huge sunken scar on Anke's right leg with its own eyes, but when it looked carefully later, there was nothing. 'What am I thinking?How could it be Encore? ? ', hurriedly shaking his head to shake off the thought just now, Chopper continued to look at Qingzhi vigilantly.

"According to what you said, she should be about the same age as us now, and she has a bloody left eye that is easy to recognize, but there is no qualified person on this island right now?" Sauron glanced lightly at the person behind him. Three women, directly excluding Encore, who is still a child, "There are three women present, one is a kid who can be ignored, one is Robin who is offered a reward, and the other is Nami, who is now 17 years old, but how is she? It doesn't look that strong, does it?"

Nami who heard this sentence burst out dozens of crosses, but she still endured it.

"Ah, I forgot to tell you one thing, that witch has the ability to change her body, gender, age and appearance," Qingzhi explained lightly: "So, any one of you present may be her, and there are Probably not her."

"STOP!! STOP!!!!" Feeling something wrong, Nami immediately yelled to interrupt Qingzhi, "What do you mean by that? Why do you say that witch is with us? This It’s too bragging! Although this is a great route, but everything needs some evidence, right?”

"Yes, yes!!" Usopp also said loudly: "All the news we heard about that witch is from you. Even if you are a general, even if you participated in the war 5 years ago , but how can we believe such a thing? It is impossible for us to have that witch among our partners!"

Chopper also nodded and said, "Well, there are no such dangerous people hiding in our boat! Our partners are all very important partners!!"

Hearing these words, Lu Fei just clenched his right fist silently, and pressed his left hand tightly on her shoulder to protect Encore.Looking at the hand on the shoulder, Anke just put his right hand on it, the cold temperature made Luffy calm down a little.Anke looked helplessly at the people around him who still regarded him as a partner, and sighed, "It's a pity that this ship does carry that witch... that witch who committed countless crimes without blinking... '

"Since the establishment of the Straw Hat Pirates, the Navy has discovered an incredible phenomenon, that is, your team actually took a ten-year-old girl to sea. But it is incredible that according to people who have seen or chased you According to the report of the sea soldier, sometimes you can see her in your team and sometimes you don't see her, how do you explain this phenomenon?"

"Haha, what is there to explain?" Sanji spread his hands and said, "We will protect the little cutie well every time. What if the navy finds out?"

"Then, the question now is, why do you want to protect her?" Qingzhi looked at the little figure hidden behind Luffy indifferently, "Since she chose to go to sea with you, why did she hide?"

"Because...", upon hearing this sentence, Sanji blinked blankly, feeling that Qingzhi's words made sense, but he never seemed to doubt it.

"Also, you Straw Hat Pirates have all appeared in places where the navy saw incredible phenomena. The first is the mystery of the house in Rogue Town. This news was suppressed by the Navy Headquarters, so you may not I know. In Rogge Town a few months ago, half of the houses near the execution ground disappeared overnight, without leaving any traces. And the evidence shows that before that, your Straw Hat Pirates had appeared there .”

"In this way, do you suspect that after we made those houses disappear, we miraculously recreated them with mystical abilities, and then waited for a few months after the limelight passed, and then restored them to their original incomplete appearance?" Sauron said. He said lightly: "We did appear in the execution ground in Rogge Town, but we don't have the ability to do such unimaginable things."

"If it was her, this trivial matter would be easy, and it would be effortless." Qingzhi still looked lazy, but her eyes were still fixed on the people behind, "The second is the warship island, the thousand-year-old dragon It is indeed a bit strange, but it is just a higher-level animal. It is absolutely impossible for the whole body to emit blue light, and there will be a black hole to absorb the shells and then bounce back. According to the report of the sea soldiers at that time, when the Millennium Dragon appeared, the Straw Hat Sea The thieves are there too. And I personally experienced the tactics of the black hole five years ago."

"Speaking of it, it was indeed a bit weird at that time," Usopp nodded and said, "But the dragon master is a thousand-year-old mysterious creature, few people have seen it, even if it has magical power..."

"The bell tower in Alabasta that was burned to the ground by the mysterious flames can be ignored. Anyway, you who were present at that time know better than me. The last one is that the last time you air raided the naval fortress Nabaron At that time, the report given by the commander there was a bit unbelievable and even weird. He said that the Straw Hat Pirates consisted of 8 people, but," Qingzhi glanced at them lightly, "everyone can prove that the Straw Hat Pirates There are no children in the thieves! Because no one has seen..."

"This is also understandable, okay~" Nami said with a smile: "Because Encore has been hiding all the time, how could it be discovered?"

"Wait...wait a minute!!" Chopper suddenly shouted loudly, then looked at Qingzhi angrily and said, "Why do you seem to doubt us every word, and it's strange why you always target An But? She's just a child!"

"That's right," Sanji looked at the newspaper in his hand, and then looked back at the cute person who was hiding behind Luffy in fear, "Although the bloody left eye and the blood stains on the face are removed, little cutie It is true that he looks exactly the same as that person when he was a child, but this cannot be used as evidence that the navy suspects the cutie, right?"

"It's a bit absurd," Sauron gripped the hilt of his sword and was ready to draw out his sword at any time, "Although Encore is indeed very strong, it's really unreasonable for you to assume that she died 5 years ago just because of her resemblance. Even if that person escaped and survived, the age difference between her and Anke is too great."

"Didn't I say at the beginning that that guy can easily change his age and figure? A lot of messy things? Have you heard..." Qing Zhi, who was a little speechless to them, sighed annoyed After scratching his head, he said, "I also said that she is a Devil Fruit user, and she has other messy abilities..."

"Then what?" Nami looked at Qingzhi strangely while holding the bounty order with no name but a bounty.

"Her devil fruit ability is crystal, and the tool she used to call out blue flames to bind us five years ago is..." Qingzhi paused intentionally, looking at the blood sealed by crystal that could not be hidden behind Luffy The red blade, "a demon sword with a blood red body and a strange pattern, which can call out the mysterious flame called 'hell karma' through its own blood."

"That's... Encore's devil fruit ability and Chiyue..." After Nami said something blankly, her eyes were fixed on Encore, and the eyes of others were also glued to her body.

Luffy's clenched right fist just loosened and clenched again, and then he loosened it seemingly casually and raised the straw hat a little. He looked at Qingzhi expressionlessly: "What do you want to say?"

"It's nothing..." Qingzhi just stood up and stepped forward to pass Zoro and Sanji, standing in front of Luffy, "Can you show me the girl behind you, Straw Hat Boy Luffy."

The left hand still firmly covered Anke to prevent her from moving, Lu Fei just looked at Qingzhi calmly: "What if I refuse."

For the next period of time, neither Lu Fei nor Qingzhi said a word, they just looked at each other calmly, refusing to give in at all, and the tense atmosphere was full of heaviness.

Not long after, Anke breathed a sigh of relief, left behind Luffy nimbly, stood next to him with a sweet smile and looked at Qingzhi, his expression and eyes were full of the innocence of a 10-year-old child who had never experienced anything in the world, with With a trace of timidity and shyness in the face of strangers, "Is it me you have been talking about? My lord~~"

"Encore!!" Luffy was startled and wanted to pull her back, but Encore gently refused.Turning his head slightly and looking up at Luffy, Anke just showed a faint smile: "This navy lord is looking for me, Captain. Let's see what he has to do first~~"

Luffy looked at her silently for a while, then nodded.

Knowing that Lu Fei agreed, Enke still looked at Qingzhi without changing his face, took out Chiyue and stretched forward with both hands, "Is this the blood-red knife you mentioned? General, then now Is there any way to turn my eyes red? In this case, you can take me back to do business?"

"Don't say it so scary, little girl~" Seeing Encore coming out, Qingzhi took a few steps back and took out a small transparent bottle containing blue liquid from her trouser pocket and shook it, the liquid inside moved slightly .

'A new tool to restrain the eyes of reincarnation?It looks pretty..." Tilting his head indifferently, An Ke narrowed his left eye with interest.The others who saw Qingzhi's action stepped back behind Luffy, looking at the bottle cautiously.

"The thing in this bottle is called 'tears'. It looks like a liquid, but these are extremely fine crystals. When scattered in the air, they can shake each other and break up the surrounding space for a short time. This can easily remove her disguise. Restore the original appearance and figure in a short time," Qingzhi looked at Anke lazily and said, "If you were her, you should know what consequences this will bring..."

"It means that if cutie is her," Sanji looked at the little figure standing in the front, paused before saying, "after opening that bottle, cutie will become a mature and beautiful lady?"

"you can say it this way……"

Suddenly the breeze picked up, and the grass danced in the wind.Anke just raised his head slightly to feel the wind blowing in front of him, the crystal on the red moon he was holding in his hand shattered, and the sharp fragments flew with the wind, passing over the people standing behind him.Nami behind wanted to reach out to catch the flying crystals, but found that they all circled around her fingertips as if they were spiritual.Nami opened her eyes slightly, and stretched out her hand to grab a piece, but it was in vain. She stared blankly at the gorgeous but non-existent crystals around her, and squeezed her lips tightly, "What's going on... that kind of crystal that seems to be Feeling lost and never coming back...'

After the wind blew, Anke caressed Chiyue's bright red blade, smiled and looked at the blue bottle in Qingzhi's hand, "Then, please open it, Master Qingzhi..."

"It seems that after 5 years, you are still as calm as ever..." Opening the bottle cap, Qing Zhi said while putting the contents in the bottle: "The current name is... Encore? Sounds pretty good .”

"Really, thank you~", a voice of no thanks came faintly, Anke watched the blue crystals float out with a smile on the corner of her mouth, she had decided not to cover up, she just quietly watched those things fly by her side, and then Gently close your eyes.
