Behind the scenes of One Piece

Change first and then change.

=============

Huck Jon took advantage of Jinola's surprise and suddenly gave her a hard blow back, then rolled around and dodged her dagger.

Then, he stretched out his right hand. The palm of his right hand was like a red-hot iron, which looked both dazzling and dangerous in the darkness.

"Madam, since you know my name, do you still want to cause trouble for me? Be careful of getting hurt by this hand!"

Jinola was not threatened by him and insisted: "You haven't answered my question yet. Weren't you kicked out of Magic Valley Town by Mr. Charlie?"

Huck Jon spread his hands and said, "I would like to leave, but it's a pity that old Charlie won't give me this chance."

Jinola's heart moved: "What's going on? Old Charlie didn't drive you away, but took you in, right?"

Huck Jon didn't seem to want to say much about what happened back then, and shouted: "Little girl, you are too curious, go away!"

Jinola gestured with the dagger in front of the opponent's eyes again: "If you don't tell me, I will use this to secretly stab you in a while until you tell me."

Huck Jon's eyelids twitched: The girl in front of him was obviously very good at hiding traces. He had just put the dagger on his throat without even realizing it. Thinking about it this way, the other party was not lying.

Thinking of this, he sighed and pulled down the collar of his shirt, revealing a strange seal mark on his chest.

"In order to survive, I was forced to sign a contract of betrayal with old Charlie. From then on, I could only obey his orders. If I violated it, the seal would become bigger and bigger, and eventually I would die suddenly."

By the moonlight, Jinola noticed that the seal on the other person's chest was a blooming iris, and she immediately remembered that she had the same pattern on her chest, but it was not as big as the other person's.

Her first reaction was that the other party had made a mistake: "This is just a stamp. How did you know that you would die suddenly?"

Huck Jon said with a bitter smile: "Old Charlie told me personally, and I tested it. Once I deliberately delayed the task for two days, the pattern immediately doubled in size."

Jinola thought about it for a while. There were not many tasks assigned to her by old Charlie, and she completed them quickly every time, so she didn't notice whether the pattern on her chest would get bigger in the same way.

It seems that I need to find an opportunity to delay a task assigned by old Charlie to verify it?

Just when she thought of this, she was suddenly startled: Old Charlie had given her the task of tracking Gu Li, but she seemed to have failed in completing it!

Once this thought came to her mind, she no longer cared about Huck Jon in front of her, turned and ran into the depths of the hotel, into her bedroom.

After closing the door, she quickly took off her top and looked carefully in the full-length mirror.

That’s right, the iris pattern on the chest has grown a lot bigger!

So, I signed a contract of sale with old Charlie?Why do I have no impression of myself?

In Jinola's memory, when she was seven or eight years old, the ship she was traveling on was robbed by pirates, and she followed the pirates to this Demon Valley Town and became a little vagabond.

Later, old Charlie noticed her and found someone to train her in assassination skills, training her to become an assassin.

Later, she accidentally ate the Fruit of Weakness, and her whole body was almost collapsed by the ubiquitous loneliness. It was only through the guidance and training of old Charlie that she persisted.

Jinola had always felt that old Charlie had been kind to her for taking in her and rehabilitating her, but if old Charlie had used some deceptive method to get her to sign a contract of sale, then this kindness would not be counted.

The more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable the tightness in her chest became. Finally she couldn't help but put on her clothes and go out, directly arriving at the door of old Charlie's bedroom.

"Dong dong dong" Jinola knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" Old Charlie opened the door and found no one outside.

While he was wondering, Jinola had quickly gotten into the house.

When old Charlie saw no one outside the door, he closed the door again, walked to the desk and started writing something.

Jinola originally wanted to observe the other party secretly, but she really held back her questions and finally couldn't help but speak:

"Mr. Charlie, what's going on with the iris pattern on my chest?"

Old Charlie followed the direction of the voice and was surprised to find that the other party was standing in his house: "Huh? Jinola? Why did you suddenly think of this problem?"

"Because I just noticed that the iris pattern has gotten bigger! Does it mean that the bigger this thing is, the closer I am to death?"

Old Charlie pondered for a moment: "Since you have guessed it, I will tell you honestly, yes."

"So, how did this happen to me all of a sudden?"

Old Charlie sighed: "I have a seal that can be stamped anywhere, and the seal is difficult to disappear. When you were playing with it when you were a child, you must have accidentally stamped it on yourself."

Jinola frowned and thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "I don't believe it! No matter how much I play, I won't put the mark on my chest! And how do you explain that it has grown bigger?"

Old Charlie seemed to be thinking about whether to tell her the truth. After being silent for a while, he made up his mind and slowly said:

"Didn't I tell you that I have eaten a devil fruit and am an esper?"

"Energy user?" Jinola was a little surprised. She had been with him for so many years, but she had never seen him use the ability of the Devil Fruit.

Old Charlie said: "Yes, but my ability is rather special."

As he spoke, he reached into his arms and took out a blank contract: "I am a contract fruit capable person. Everyone who signs this contract with me will be controlled by me and driven by me for life."

"You mean, I also signed such a contract with you?"

Old Charlie nodded: "Yes, you didn't understand anything at that time, I'm afraid you thought it was just playing a game."

"So, you admitted to cheating on me?"

"Cheating? If it weren't for me, you would be just a wandering little girl. In a place like Demon Valley Town, whether you can survive until now is a question mark!

And I also found someone to teach you fighting skills and gave you Devil Fruit to eat..."

At this point, old Charlie realized that he had let something slip and couldn't help but pause.

But Jinola had heard the word.

"Devil Fruit? Did you give me the Weak Fruit Fruit? I thought I picked it up myself..."

Old Charlie asked: "This thing is very expensive, do you really think you can just pick it up?"

Jinola gritted her teeth and said, "For so many years, this fruit has brought me endless loneliness."

Old Charlie spread his hands and said, "You can't blame me for that. I didn't know what kind of fruit this was at the beginning, but I couldn't waste it, so I tried to lure you into eating it."
