[One Piece] Mindless and unhappy

Before Haihara Ai had time to ask about Candy, something happened.

The news was brought by Shiva. In addition to cooking, this cook would gossip with other people on the ship every day.

"You mean, Teach killed Thatch and ran away? So Ace went after him?"

After hearing what Shiva said, Haiyuan Ai thought about her logic and frowned.

Thatch got a Devil Fruit outside. Since he didn't know what it was, he asked Teach. Tikki has done a lot of research on Devil Fruits. At that time, Haibara Ai wanted to know about Devil Fruits. It was Margao who asked Tikki to borrow the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book to study. However, Tikki did not expect that Tikki would directly kill Thatch and then take the newly found one with him. The devil fruit ran away. Ace believed that Teach, as a member of the second team, had hurt his family, which was unforgivable and that it was his own negligence as the captain, so he chased him out directly.

Teach, on the other hand, usually behaves like a non-competitor. When Ace became the captain of the second division, he, as the more senior member, also fully supported him, not expecting that he would suddenly betray him.

Haihara Ai thought about this matter in her mind, and felt that the focus was still on the Devil Fruit that Sachi found at that time. After she talked to Shiva, she immediately went to find Malgao on the Moby Dick. Malgao also Frowning as he pondered this question, after hearing Hui Yuan Ai's guess, he nodded and pointed to the paper in his hand.

"At that time, many people saw the Devil Fruit. It was said to be purple with threads. There were no branches on the fruit, and it only looked like three leaves. But everyone was not very good at drawing, and I couldn't find it after looking at it for a long time. Find out what type of fruit it is.”

Haibara Ai leaned over and looked at it for a long time. The introduction to many fruits in the devil fruit illustrated book was incomplete, and many of them had no pictures at all.

"Next, I'll also help you remember what kind of Devil Fruit this is." Besides the Devil Fruit, she was still a little puzzled, "Why did Ace chase him out?"

Margao was silent for a moment and looked in the direction of Whitebeard.

"Actually, dad didn't support him chasing him out, and we all stopped him. But... we really couldn't stop him."

Haiyuan Ai put her hand on her heart and took a deep breath. The ominous premonitions she had been experiencing lately seemed to be accumulating and erupting at this moment. There was even a burning pain in her heart. The combination of these made her start to become crazy anxious. She rarely gets emotional, but now she really can't control her emotions.

"Captain... I mean dad didn't stop me?" She changed her words temporarily, perhaps because she was sighing with anxiety, which made her completely unable to think about the hesitation she would feel every time she wanted to call dad, but now she just felt that it would be useless to call her dad. Nothing is difficult.

Margao nodded: "Dad stopped me. He said he had some ominous premonitions and told Ace just this once. But with Ace like that, even if he can be stopped this time, sooner or later he will have to sneak away for revenge."

Haiyuan Ai didn't expect that Whitebeard would have an ominous premonition because of this. Ace usually left the main ship and went out alone, and sometimes even brought some different snacks to Haiyuan Ai when he went out.

But this time, the ominous premonition that she had been having for a while suddenly broke out, making her very anxious, not to mention that this was a situation that even Whitebeard felt was not good.

"Idiot." She couldn't help but cursed, "He rushed out so recklessly. Looking at the non-threatening appearance Tiqi has shown for so many years, he still violated the rules of the ship not to hurt people even though he knew it. He must be well prepared to fight against dad, and if he just bumps into me like this, that's not called revenge, it's called giving away someone's head."

Untimely, she was distracted and thought that a few days ago, she lamented that Ace and Kudou Shinichi were similar, so now Ace's behavior is called juvenile impetus at best, reckless behavior at worst, it is just like meeting a gangster. Kudo Shinichi from the clothing organization was exactly the same. She breathed a sigh of relief, took a few deep breaths, managed to calm down, and suggested to Margao.

"Please pay attention to dad's health recently. Since dad also has an ominous premonition, it's best to make more preparations. I had an active potion during my previous research, and I plan to re-develop it, just in case... ..." She concealed her bad guess, "It will always come in handy, and my research has become much clearer recently. I plan to speed up my research. If you have any news, please tell me."

Margao nodded and gave Haibara a phone bug. "Everyone was not far away before, and we didn't use phone bugs. Since we are doing research alone, we may be separated from the main ship in the future to facilitate contact."

Haibara Ai took the phone call and didn't say anything else. She went directly back to the Little Giles and told Shiva that she could leave the food at the door of the research room. She would eat it when she had time, and then dive in. Entered the research room.

That kind of ominous premonition kept lingering in her heart, always making her feel that if she didn't do something, things would be worse, just like the active potion she told Margao. It was originally a new result discovered some time ago, but there was no system. She has tried it. According to her theory, if successful, this medicine can be similar to a stimulant medicine, allowing cells to strengthen their activity and division. The effect will be similar to drinking a bottle of euphoria during the most fatigued period. dose, but the side effects are expected to be considerable.

In the past few days, when she was forgetting about food and sleep in the laboratory, she only saw a small note left by Shiva when he brought her food. It said that the red hair came specifically to see Whitebeard the day before, but the negotiation broke down in the end. It was said that on the main ship The clouds in the sky were so shaken by the sword energy that they could even be seen. It was a pity not to see it.

Haibara Ai knew that Shiva wanted her to relax. She couldn't tell what the red-haired overlord of the sea was looking for for Whitebeard, but since Margao didn't have any news to tell her, it proved that nothing had happened for the time being.

A stack of scratch papers filled with different symbols and formulas were scattered on the table. She had always done a good job in the experiment, which required avoiding arrogance and impatience. She finished the food that Shiva had prepared for her and put it back at the door. He folded the small piece of paper and put it into his own small box, stood up and walked around twice to stretch his body, rubbed his neck at the same time, and started a new round of experiments.

When Margao contacted her, she had just come out of the laboratory where she had been locked up for nearly a month.

"The redhead came here before, I suspect it's related to Teach."

Haibara Ai didn't understand Hongfa and waited quietly for Margao to continue, "Hongfa and Dad have not had any special interactions recently. Although the negotiations broke down, there are no plans to fight. Recently, Teach's name has become more and more famous outside. , everyone knows that he stepped on dad to get the upper hand, other than that, I can’t think of any reason why the red hair would suddenly come over.”

"If you don't have many personal contacts, and there's no way to tell whether it's because of Teach, only dad knows about this," Haibara Ai analyzed from a neutral perspective, "but dad won't tell them about the conversation. content."

Margao nodded. He didn't think his father would reveal the content of the conversation: "But as of now, Tiqi's reputation outside is getting bigger and bigger, and it is said that he is a user of the Dark Fruit, but he was not a user before. , and I don’t have any intention of becoming a captain or climbing up the ranks.”

"Then what he took away was the Fruit of Darkness," Haiyuan Ai recalled the illustration, "the fruit known as the 'most vicious ability'... Then his long-standing low profile is not at all a lack of ambition, but The person who is lurking and trying to pull you down is... the strongest!"

"Dad!"

The words of Haihara Ai and Margao overlapped, but it proved that they wanted to go together. However, this conclusion only proved that the subsequent development was not good, but there was no clue of the solution at all.

They simply put the idea aside.

"You said your new medicine has been successful?"

Margao asked Haiyuan Ai. When he mentioned this, Huiyuan Ai finally showed a little smile.

"Yes, it can be used as a stimulant potion. Even when the physical strength is exhausted, it can quickly adjust the mental state to fullness. It also has the effect of paralyzing and stimulating muscles, allowing the body to adapt to the stimulating mental power. According to different physiques The duration of the effect of the medicine varies, but after the effect of the medicine ends, you have to lie down for at least ten days and a half, which is considered to be something that forcibly increases the body's limits."

Margao looked at the small pill in Haiyuan Ai's hand. He wondered if it was a modern habit. Haiyuan Ai always used to make all the medicine into pills.

"...I haven't heard of this type of medicine yet, but if word spreads that it can achieve this effect, your bounty may soar."

Hui Yuan Ai shrugged and said: "If there is really a bounty on my head, then I will probably stay on the Moby Dick from now on, so you won't be able to protect me."

"In case you are really rewarded, wouldn't you consider exercising more to train yourself?" Margao laughed and said: "And with this kind of medicine, I have to say that you are really a genius."

He circled Hui Yuan Ai twice more. He had long steps, and it only took two or three steps to circle around him. "I'm even more curious about how old you actually are."

Hui Yuan Ai pushed him, but found that he couldn't push him at all, so he simply put down his hand.

"I don't have enough time. Compared with practicing domineering and other things, I am more familiar with potions."

Margao took a step back, pushed her forward, and asked her to find Whitebeard by herself: "Then you and Dad will talk about your new medicine?"

Haiyuan Ai pursed her lips. She had been in the research room since she called Whitebeard daddy to Margao. At this moment, she was still a little hesitant about meeting Whitebeard. But she wasn't the type to procrastinate. She stood there and closed her eyes, cheered herself up in her heart, and walked over.

She first showed Baibeard the medicine in her hand, and then after explaining to him the function of the medicine, she paused and shouted.

\"...Dad.\"

Whitebeard laughed again and again, very happy.

"Good daughter, come to Moby Dick."

Once the effect of her active potion spreads, she will definitely attract the attention of all forces. Although the Little Giles is one of the fleets under Whitebeard's command, under this situation, she still remains on the Little Giles. , neither the Little Giles nor Hui Yuan Ai were safe, and they were guilty of harboring the treasure. Both Whitebeard and Margao knew this kind of thing, so Margao was alone on the Moby Dick. The two bedrooms were integrated to make a separate laboratory for her, which was moved directly to the main ship.
