Chapter 182 The Garden of Eden

As dusk approaches, the islands not far away are bathed in the afterglow of the slowly setting sun. Against the dark blue ocean surface, the islands coated with an orange-red outline look soft and soft.

He stopped, looked at the surface of the sea that would be dotted with golden sunset spots, and exhaled lightly, thinking of meeting in a short time, even the sea breeze was much warmer in an instant.

It took less than two days for Aokiji Kuzan to rush over from Marineford. He was alone with a bicycle, and he traveled lightly. He didn't even use the warships he had prepared, and ran directly on the frozen ocean. Come, just for fear of wasting time, the man was abducted by Polusalino to nowhere.

Alright~ After thinking about it, he raised his hand to tangle his hair. Aokiji sighed very melancholy. He also knew that it was not Polusalino who 'abducted' people out to play, but... for him, it involved the little lady , no matter what, the fault is someone else.

So ah~ it's all Polusalino's bad.

And since it's my colleague's fault, then... throw the thank you gift brought by Portgas d. Ace in the Marineford Dock, and wait for General Kizaru to go back to deal with it. Aokiji Kuzan is the slightest Not guilty.

Polusalino's inhumanity also spent more than half a month at ease, not finding something to give his colleagues a headache and busy, Aokiji always felt bad about it.

Shaking off the sore arms caused by the long journey, he pedaled hard on the bicycle with his feet. After the short rest, he quickly headed towards the distant island.

…………

The last ray of light from the setting sun slowly sank into the back of the towering mountains, stars gradually flashed one by one in the sky as night fell, and light yellow lights lit up the islands.

In mid-air, there are flying birds fluttering across the edges, and there are vague noises from the buildings on both sides of the street, the beeping sound of ingredients being poured into boiling oil, the light aroma of ale, and the subtle crisp sound of stepping on the wooden floor when walking. …

Aokiji walks along the stone-paved alleyway with his bicycle, and occasionally he can see a few images in the house through the cracks in the window. In the dim light, the pictures of ordinary people shake and spread, which makes him want to smile subconsciously. .

As if there was an invisible traction, he led Aokiji precisely through the high walls of the densely packed houses on the island. Even if he didn't have the exact address, and even didn't use his knowledge to check, he knew the destination subconsciously.

In a trance, he had the illusion that he was like every ordinary man in the world. After a busy day, he hurried back. She was on the island, and his mood when he went to her was probably... the feeling of returning home.

Qingzhi and Huangyuan have been fighting endlessly for half their lives, and the only person who feels at ease for many years is her side.

Even though she had a different stand from them at that time, even though she was confronting them tit for tat, by her side, his heart was more stable than ever before.

As said in the letter left to her when I sent her away from Marineford, she lost her hometown and blood relatives 20 years ago, and they are eager to be a replacement 20 years later.

In their hearts, she is a wife, she is a mother, she is a sister, and she is a daughter.

They hoped that in her eyes, they were her husband, her father, her brother, her son.

The yellow ape Polusalino abandoned his former identity and past, and the island where Aokiji Kuzan was born has long since perished. For the two of them, she is peace and her hometown.

…………

Located in the center of the island, in the depths of countless buildings, Aokiji finally stopped in front of a small building.

It is at the intersection of two streets. There is a low wall covered with brocade in front of the gate. There are lights on the wall beside the gate. Through the glass windows, the lobby inside seems to be very quiet.

Aokiji entered the courtyard, first leaned the bicycle against the wall, then looked up, and as expected, saw the window on the second floor facing the street open silently, and Polusalino waved at him with a smile.

Straightening up, Aokiji patted the dust on his hands, quietly looked at Polusalino who jumped out of the room on the second floor and stood beside him, and raised his eyebrows.

Under the light, his colleagues looked much more relaxed than before. In Aokiji's eyes, it almost made him want to go away. This kind of showing off, obviously full of food and drink... is really too hateful.

Resisting the urge to roll his eyes, Aokiji took out a crumpled piece of paper from his pocket and handed it out. After his colleague took it, he quietly waited for Polusalino to read it.

The paper contained several incidents that occurred in Marineford during Polusalino's vacation, including the unfinished business that Aokiji was in the middle of.

Not long after, Polusalino finished browsing quickly, moved his eyes away from the paper, met the eyes of Aokiji, and then turned around and walked towards the gate of the courtyard.

Neither of them said much, the two admirals, one was on vacation and the other was about to start, their pattern started with her and would not end until the day they were able to take the responsibility off their shoulders.

When the Warring States Marshal chooses a trustworthy successor, Aokiji and Kizaru can retire from the position of Admiral of the Navy, and they will have to stay with her in the palace, day and night.

Polusalino walked out of the courtyard, and in an instant, many figures appeared in the shadow of the alley corner. The leader was the adjutant of the general Kizaru. , paused but didn't look back, and after a while, walked away without saying a word.

Within a few minutes, a large number of well-trained sailors left without a sound. They were all the troops deployed by the orangutan on the island. Now that the general is leaving, the guards hiding nearby are also evacuating with him.

…………

When the back of the yellow monkey disappeared at the end of the street, Aokiji looked back and jumped up to the window sill of the open window on the second floor.

Within the scope of knowledge and knowledge, the island in the night was quiet on the surface, but in fact many changes were going on. The troops directly under the yellow monkey were withdrawn from the various warning points and replaced by the troops under Aokiji's command.

The two admirals have direct troops stationed in the first half of the Great Channel. At this time, the team that landed on the island was ordered to come here a few days ago. They rushed to this place before Aokiji arrived. He set foot on the island and began to change defenses.

It's not that Qingzhi and Huangyuan don't trust each other's abilities, but they also only believe in the loyalty and obedience of the troops directly under them. They have fought for half their lives, and the habits they have formed are really hard to change, so they can only be so troublesome.

Although Aokiji didn't think he could stay on this island for too long, some actions were unavoidable. Even if there was panic, they didn't dare to ignore her safety, even the slightest possibility was not allowed.

In addition to the peeping that exists because of her ability, the reason for the black-haired and blue-eyed beauty that has become popular in the Great Channel and the New World in recent years, how could Aokiji and Yellow Monkey not know.

Even if it's not that she is worried about encountering difficult enemies, the love rivals who have different thoughts about her from the outside world, whether overt or covert, also make Qingzhi and Huangyuan always depressed.

Fortunately, the two of them still had some skills, so that too much information about her was not leaked out. Only a few special people probably knew about her recent situation.

That red-haired Shanks clown Bucky... just knew she was alive.

As for other people who are not important to Qingzhi Huangyuan, the two of them kept the news to death, and also "advised" Pluto not to do unnecessary things.

Underworld Lord Sirbazz Raleigh kept his mouth shut all the time for her sake.

Except for Portgas D. Ace a few days ago, but Fire Fist will find him, Aokiji believes that Pluto didn't reveal much.

Pluto Sirbazz Raleigh has always been very protective of her. Although he always dislikes the two admirals, it is inevitable, just like every father-in-law in the world dislikes his son-in-law.

Between her vice-captain and the two generals, there were only some innocuous disputes and frictions with each other, but when it came to her, their positions were the same.

…………

Stepping on the soft plush carpet, closing the window behind his back, Aokiji casually looked around, the room was not too big or small, decorated in warm colors, and the light from the ceiling chandelier illuminated the room.

The door in the corner of the room was half-opened and half-closed, and the sound of dripping water could be heard from the door, mixed with slight water vapor.

Many objects that can be seen but not used are messy and placed in a mess. Clothes and jewelry, bits and pieces are thrown everywhere... At first glance, it is the handwriting of that person. She has never known how to take care of herself, let alone manage life, aesthetics View is also very bad.

Looking around, Aokiji bowed down resignedly, and began to tidy up the room slowly. While arranging various objects into proper positions, he spurned a certain colleague who had gone away in his heart.

That bastard Polusalino, he only remembers to play around with her when she is beside her. Such a long pearl necklace is left at the foot of the bed, what if he trips her?

Throwing the round and lengthy chain in his hand into the dressing table box, Aokiji snorted, and then heard the sound of water in the bathroom disappearing, his heart skipped a beat, turned around, and saw the door open just in time.

The man came out of the bathroom unsteadily, covered in a thin layer of water vapor, met his gaze, she blinked her eyes, and a small smile appeared on her lips.

There was a sudden heartbeat, and Aokiji's gaze circled around her from top to bottom.

She was wrapped in a large bath towel, with rounded shoulders, slender limbs, loose hair, and water droplets falling from the tips of her hair. Against the backdrop of bright white and jet black, the bruises carved on her skin looked extremely gorgeous.

His eyes dimmed unconsciously, and he stretched out his hand towards her, palms up in mid-air, "Come here—"

After opening his mouth, Aokiji realized that his voice was unbelievably hoarse, as if he had just trekked through the Alabasta desert, and he was very thirsty.

After a few seconds of silence, he pursed the corners of his mouth to relieve the scorching thirst in his throat, and he said again, "Come to my side, Miss." While speaking, he stared at her with a hint of coaxing in his eyes.

As she walked towards him, Aokiji's eyes were glued to her slender ankles, the tender white soles, the raised arches and the slender ankles formed a delicate arc, the small toenails were light pink, she was so beautiful how to describe.

Her breath lingered in his nose and entwined in his heart.

…………

She stood in front of him, raised her face, her dark blue pupils reflected his shadow, but his attention was shamefully drawn away by her soft and slender body that glowed under the light.

She is like a peach or fruit wine, exuding a sweet and mellow temptation, and the dense aroma is like a cobweb, if you are close to each other, gently swaying around, making him feel hot all over.

"Miss..." He opened his mouth vaguely, and he stretched out his hand to embrace her towards him, stroking the lightly steamed skin with his palm, wrapping her around her from the back of the waist, hugging her in a coaxing way.

He snuggled her to his chest, supported her with one hand, and slid the other hand to the back of her neck, shortening the distance between them.

"Miss, I miss you so much."

He lowered his head and leaned against her neck, sticking out the tip of his tongue to lick the side of her neck lightly, there was a blush in his eyes, Aokiji bit the bruise, her breath invaded his throat, slowly eroding his reason together with his thoughts.

After some time, he reluctantly ended the kiss, and put his forehead against hers. He looked into her eyes carefully, her dark blue pupils clearly reflected his face, and the light in them was as gentle as water.

Aokiji felt his heart beating faster again.

The smile in her eyes is the extravagant wish he has been longing for in his sleep for 20 years, and now he has got his wish.

The Adam's apple involuntarily slid up and down, he hugged her and impatiently walked a short distance forward, stumbled and rolled into the soft bedding.

He bullied him and treated her tenderly with all his self-control. She whispered in his ear, small and small, like a kitten, as if she had been wronged and timid.

Aokiji felt that he was about to be unable to breathe, and the soft skin touched by his fingertips made his brain burn, and he wanted to swallow her whole body, including the skin and bones.

He thought of her so much that his heart ached.

…………

She fell asleep peacefully in his arms, and he looked at her with the light for a long, long time, and finally fell into a deep dream with unparalleled happiness and satisfaction.

Aokiji had been thinking about such a night for 20 years.

Speaking of it, sometimes even Aokiji himself finds it inconceivable that after the encounter in the O'Hara forest, he could not see other women for a full 20 years.

Aokiji also knew that there were some weird rumors about him secretly in the Navy Headquarters. After he disappeared from the Huajie Tavern, Mr. Karp would look at him with very strange eyes occasionally.

It's embarrassing to be questioned, especially as a normal man, but Aokiji Kuzan can't help himself. It's not that he's completely uninterested, but every time he thinks about it, her image pops up in front of his eyes. Face.

She was only eight years old back then, but he couldn't help but start to have delusions.

After she disappeared, she couldn't be found anywhere, and for a while he was almost unbearable by the dark delusion.

In order to prevent herself from accidentally becoming some kind of shameless pervert, Aokiji began to wander around on the bicycle she said she liked after heavy work.

Or other men would attack other women while being tempted, but Aokiji couldn't do it. The feelings hidden in his heart were not so recognized by others, so how could he dare to do anything else that would make the two of them fall apart in the future? Things that create twists and turns.

What's more, his little lady's whereabouts are unknown, maybe... Could it be that she was suffering some kind of pain and suffering when he was drunk and dreaming of death... Just thinking about it like this, he can't wait to let go of everything and devote himself to the action of looking for her.

It's just that his responsibilities do not allow it. As an admiral, he has very little free time left. He doesn't have much personal time, so Aokiji naturally refuses to be distracted.

He traveled through the seven routes in the first half of the great channel, just for the purpose that maybe one day, she will appear on the sea on a certain ship.

She said, 'Nicole Robin is also an archaeologist. ', O'Hara was destroyed due to the historical text, if she survived, would she embark on a journey to find the truth when she grows up?

With a hope that is so slim that it is almost impossible, Aokiji wanders on the sea year after year on a bicycle.

Day after day, he firmly remembered the lies she gave. She asked him to marry her on a bicycle. He walked alone and aimlessly among the waves, perseveringly looking for his bride.

After waiting for 20 years, fate finally favored him once, and his little lady appeared again.

…………

In his sleep, Aokiji relived all the things with her again.

The first meeting in the O'Hara forest, the reunion in the bar on Gavinas Island, the moment she really saw him on the deck of the South China Sea pirate ship Quedaf...

In the depths of Wish Island, he missed her hand, and she disappeared in the phantom 20 years ago...

Countless pictures flowed quickly, and finally stopped at the Marineford battlefield. That scene made him feel so painful...

The tip of the heart suddenly contracted, Qingzhi opened his eyes, got up immediately, and hurriedly searched for the whereabouts of that person.

Turning his face away, Aokiji saw the man curled up in the quilt by his side, breathing gently, under the dim light, his brows were stretched in his sleep, and his expression looked peaceful and peaceful.

Taking deep breaths, Aokiji tried to calm down his chaotic heartbeat, cold sweat rolled down his forehead, and the despair and pain of loss in his dream remained in his mind, making him shiver imperceptibly.

At this moment, his mood fluctuated so much that it caused her to wake up from the dream.

Opening her eyes, she looked at him silently for a few seconds, a little softness appeared in her dark blue pupils, and the next moment she stretched out her hand to him.

He bent down like a demon, and she wrapped her snow-white arms around his neck, slowly pulling him down, letting him cuddle up to her heart.

Her fingertips gently pushed aside his hair that covered his forehead, walked along the sweaty outline, and finally stopped on his back, patted him calmly, and silently comforted him who was awakened by the nightmare.

A gentle and peaceful heartbeat was guided along the cochlea, Qingzhi closed his eyes, and the corners of his eyes were slightly sore.

…………

"Miss—Miss—"

All kinds of pain and contradictions, joy and happiness in the past flowed in his mind once, and he condensed all his love and anxiety into one call.

In the deep night, she responded in a low voice as usual after discovering that he woke up countless times:

"Well, I'm here..."

…………

After a long time, the panic and pain subsided between her heartbeat and breathing, Aokiji Kuzan turned over, changed their positions, placed her on his chest, and closed his eyes reverently.

He had seen an ancient book from one of O'Hara's salvaged bequests from her fall, which now resided in her palace, to accompany her with the treasures they had painstakingly collected.

It was a book whose age was unknown and whose meaning could not be located. The reason why Aokiji Kuzan was so impressed was because of a certain paragraph in the book. The old yellowed paper described a place of extreme happiness.

The book says that there is peace and prosperity, there is no darkness, and that place of glory is called the Garden of Eden.

Such an illusory place does not exist in the real world, but Aokiji Kuzan feels that he has found it.

As long as she is by his side, he will be happy every sunrise and sunset for the rest of his life. The warmth in his arms is a nostalgia that will never let go until death.

The first woman in the myth is the rib of a man, and he also believes that Nicole Robin is the rib of Aokiji Kuzan.

She is his flesh and blood, she is his Garden of Eden.
