Vice Captain of One Piece

Chapter 188 The Encore That Was Wounded Hard
And a certain chick that Zoro has been looking for is lying pitifully on all fours in an unknown corner. She was just frightened by the black smoke that was about to stick to her face, and she turned back directly from the The leopard rolled up and down, and ended up rolling down an unknown number of stairs, making his eyes full of stars now.At this time, an eagle came out with flapping wings, grabbed her with its claws and continued running along the long corridor before the black smoke that followed immediately touched Encore.

Like a puppet, he stared blankly at the black smoke a few steps away from him, and the trident in Anke's hand dissipated immediately.In the awkward posture of being grabbed by the eagle, Anke naturally took Chiyue out from behind, then slowly unwrapped the crystal that sealed it, and continued to swipe slowly on his left hand.The bright blood flowed down the sharp blade, and then was swallowed completely, as if it never existed, but the demon knife that turned red as dripping blood proved the existence of those blood.

"I seem to have used karmic fire to burn lightning, but I don't seem to have burned smoke without substance. I don't know if it can work~~~~" He smiled and said hesitantly, but Encore's expression did not show any hesitation. Chi Yue pointed straight at the black smoke that had been following closely, "Ye Huo-Wind Screen...".A cluster of flames emerged from the blood-red tip of the knife, and then the flames grew bigger and burned away from the tip of the knife. In the blink of an eye, a barrier was formed in front of Anke to block all the gaps. The faint blue color was like a layer of mist, an ominous black snake The smoke rushed over without any pause, and was burned up by the blue flame without a trace.

After seeing that the troublesome things disappeared, Anke let the eagle put himself down with a soft breath.While moving his tired shoulders (rolling down the stairs and being caught by an eagle like catching a mouse after rolling a few floors, it's not uncomfortable~), while looking at the burning karma screen, he took a look at After the wound on the left hand, a few drops of blood were wasted helplessly, but fortunately the wound was relatively shallow, so there was no serious problem.

The eagle flapped its wings and disappeared immediately. Not long after, the karmic fire barrier also disappeared, and the black smoke was burned until there was no shadow left.

"Speaking of which, didn't those black smoke snakes disappear just now?" Looking at the empty corridor, Anke tilted his head in doubt, trying to think about how many black smoke snakes were called out by those guys. But still can't figure it out.

"Hey, Encore! Are you okay!!" Behind Encore, Sauron, who had finally found her, was relieved when he saw Encore. As soon as his footsteps slowed down, he ran again, staring at Encore's left hand. The bleeding wound on the wrist asked: "What's the matter with that wound??"

Hearing the familiar voice, Anke turned around and shook the red moon at Sauron, smiling sweetly, "I just burned the smoke with a karmic torch~~, because being chased is so annoying~~~"

"So that's the case, no wonder..." Sauron, who was about to say something with a smile, stared at Anke's back and widened his eyes for a moment, and rushed up while shouting: "Squat down!! Encore!!!!"

Seeing Sauron's expression, he knew that there was something behind him. Anke held the red moon in front of him and just turned around, only to see a darkness, endless darkness, even if he widened his eyes hard, he still couldn't see anything.

Sauron saw with his own eyes the four or five strands of black smoke coming out of the wall behind Anke and split into two strands. The moment Anke turned around, one of them hit her face, while the other penetrated into her body. abdomen.However, the scene in the blink of an eye seemed to be slowed down by someone, so that Zoro who stretched out his hand towards the front could clearly see it. He stretched forward and tried to hold her hand, but it seemed that he would never be able to reach it. He was so weak that he stared with wide eyes, watching that the child who wanted to protect was so easily shot by the black smoke.

The black smoke at this time is no longer illusory, and it seems to be different from the ones that passed through his body before.Because at that time, even if the whole road passed through the real Sauron, the black smoke seemed to pass through a lifeless wall, and continued to swim forward leisurely, but it was different now.The black smoke pouring into Encore's left eye and abdomen seemed to have found its home, and it didn't come out after entering, not at all.Anke, who was so impacted, stood there straight, maintaining a defensive posture holding Chiyue horizontally in front of her chest, her eyes were wide open, her expression was dull, as if she hadn't realized what happened just now, but she The godless abnormal pupils and the fading blood on her face are enough to show that there must be something wrong with her now.

"Encore!!!", Zoro, who rushed to the front of Encore, anxiously supported Encore who was standing there, looked up and down, but did not see any scars on her body, and the place where the black smoke poured in earlier Not a trace was left.However, this only seemed harmless, but Zoro knew very well that she was definitely blinded by those weird smoke.Bending down so that he could look at Anke's out-of-focus eyes, Sauron slowly stretched out his trembling hand to check her breath, and found that although it was very faint, it still existed.

With a sound of 'choke', Chi Yue fell to the ground without warning. Immediately afterwards, Anke's face turned pale, and he pursed his lips tightly, but he still couldn't stop a stream of blood from flowing down the corner of his lips.Cold sweat flowed down, Anke clutched his stomach in pain and knelt down on the ground, his expression twisted as if he was enduring great pain, he didn't even make a sound, the pain was so painful that he couldn't even speak, lying on his stomach Trembling on the ground, trying to endure the great pain that seemed to tear my internal organs to shreds.The sudden pain became Encore's only sense now, and even breathing felt heart-piercing, and finally lost consciousness in the endless torture.

"Encore!! What's the matter with you?? Encore??", because of Encore's kneeling posture on the ground, Sauron couldn't see where she was hurt. Painful and violently trembling, he immediately withdrew his hand.But knowing that procrastinating like this would only cause her to suffer more injuries, Sauron directly knelt on the ground, although his hands were trembling slightly, he still forced himself to calm down, and carefully held the baby like a fragile doll. Encore completely hugged her from the ground into her arms.But as soon as he carefully rotated his hands to change the direction of the child facing the ground, Sauron felt that something was wrong, because his hands were now covered with wet liquid, but when he checked just now, there was no blood on Encore's body at all. Such a big wound.

Looking down at the child lying in his arms in disbelief, Zoro only felt his breathing stagnate and his head went empty.Who can imagine that the child who was smiling cutely in front of his eyes a few seconds ago is dying like a broken puppet the next moment? , a pale face that was completely bloodless, dense cold sweat, and... the blood that kept vomited from his mouth, a weak breath that seemed to dissipate in the next second, his eyes were closed tightly, and a few traces of blood flowed from the corner of his left eye, But far from spit out much.The unstoppable blood flow dripped down the thin neck, forming a small pool of blood on the ground after a while.And because of turning Encore over, Sauron's hands are now covered with her blood.Looking in disbelief at the red liquid in his hands and the bright red on Encore's face, Sauron felt that blood could be so strange for the first time, and it was the first time he discovered that the seemingly warm red would bring such a cold feeling , "An... Encore???"

Suddenly, before parting, Luffy's words sounded without warning: "Sauron, follow Encore, I'll be responsible for Robin! Don't let those guys hurt Encore's eyes again, her left eye is not fully healed yet. !!"

But after a while, a louder voice overwhelmed all hearing:

'You are too weak!There is no way to protect her!Hahahahaha! ! '

At this moment, Mel's words kept repeating in Sauron's ears like a spell, and the vicious laughter was full of confidence.And the child who was in danger at the moment and him who was at a loss just happened to fulfill Mel's words. Even though they were only a short distance away, they still had nothing to do and could only watch helplessly.

Vigorously shaking off the repeated laughter in his mind, Sauron felt at a loss for the first time. He didn't know what to do now to restore the lively child in his arms to the previous one.Carefully letting Anke's head lean against him, Sauron freed one hand to gently lift up her clothes, only to find that there were no scars on her abdomen except for the skin stained red by the blood flowing from her mouth, but there was still Encore, who was spitting blood from time to time, obviously showed that she was definitely seriously injured now, and it was not clear what kind of injury she had suffered, so Sauron could only try to take a few deep breaths to calm himself down.

"Chopper, yes! I'm going to find Chopper!!" After trying to calm down, he remembered Chopper. Zoro immediately stood up cautiously, looked around, and immediately ran in one direction, using all his strength. While running at the maximum speed, he would not let the child in his arms shake a little, because he knew that every little swing would bring endless pain to Encore. Although she was so painful that she passed out now, Sauron still didn't want to Let her be tortured even more.But she, who has always been a road idiot, did not hesitate in the direction she ran, because when she was so nervous that her head was empty, he saw with his own eyes several human-shaped shadows running in the distance near countless transparent obstacles. One of them was wearing a hat. The strong man must be the gigantic Chopper.

Enke, who was hugged by Sauron, was motionless as if in a deep sleep. Although his big eyes were tightly closed, he couldn't stop the blood flowing from the slit of his left eye.The slightly parted lips kept bleeding, dyed the clothes red down the neck, and then flowed down the hanging arms. The blood dripping along the road bloomed like plum blossoms on the ground.The blue water drop pendant that was carefully hidden under the clothes was not spared, and the beautiful blue was completely covered by the bright red.However, as if awakened, the water droplets that had been quietly serving as a hanging ornament suddenly emitted a faint blue light, which looked mysterious under the dazzling red, but unfortunately no one noticed it under the cover of the clothes, and no one would in case of an emergency. Put your mind on a decoration.

The corridor became quiet again, leaving a pool of dazzling red blood on the clean floor tiles, and a forgotten red demon knife lying in the blood.The corridor is by the window, and the warm sunlight shines on the red knife, coating it with an incredible light, so that it shimmers with a dazzling cold light, and the pool of blood left by Encore on the ground begins to slowly decrease, as if it was touched by the demon knife. After smoking the same, only an irregular red mark was left on the ground, so conspicuous.And the demon knife has become more red and bloodthirsty than at the beginning.It's a pity that no one found it in the quiet corridor...
