One Piece Redemption

Chapter 31 The Cowardly King

At three o'clock in the morning, the sleeping people were awakened by Troga's roar, and when they heard Lu intermittently telling people what happened, all the people fell silent.

After hearing those words, the always strong and hearty red-haired man stumbled towards the second floor, burning with anxiety.

When the red-haired man broke into the queen's bedroom, he saw the queen sleeping soundly on the bed. The red-haired man finally breathed a sigh of relief, walked over, and gently pushed the queen who was sleeping so deeply for the first time. Queen: "Empty, empty? Don't sleep, get up quickly, I have something to tell you." But what made the red-haired man extremely anxious was that the queen lying on the bed, who seemed to have fallen asleep peacefully, He was not awakened by him, if not for the peaceful expression on the Queen's face and the shallow breathing, Shanks even thought that the Queen might have...

Looking at the queen's sleeping face, the red-haired man once again realized how much loss his mistake had brought to him... He couldn't help but hugged the queen tightly in his arms: "...I'm sorry, I'm sorry again. I didn't protect you well, Kong... When you felt lonely and helpless because you lost your freedom when you were a child, when you gave up eternity and chose to grow up, when you felt uneasy because you found that bouquet of roses It's time too... I have never been able to protect you well..." The man's sad murmur sounded in the film.

There was nothing to say on the boat all night.

The future queen, who had just awakened her bloodline, lay on her bed tiredly again. She was aching all over her body, and she had been practicing those complicated and harsh court etiquette so hard that her body became very stiff. Staring blankly at the starry sky outside the window, tears streamed down my face suddenly: "...the freedom I want to have, is there no way I can get it in this life? Is it true that I can only live in this castle for the rest of my life? A dead queen?"

Maybe it was tired from crying, maybe it was mental exhaustion, the future queen, who is still very fragile, finally couldn't help but fell into a deep sleep...

"... Cole, have you not woken up until now?" Lu looked guiltily at his companion who was also worried.

"...It's okay, it'll be fine." Cole pulled himself together, and smiled at Lu: "Lu, you don't have to blame yourself, no one thought of this...you should be punished, It should be that guy, no one has ever imagined that he would actually use you."

"...you don't need to comfort me, Cole." Seeing the smile that his companion tried to squeeze at him, Lu hugged his head in great annoyance: "...it's all my fault, if it wasn't because of my talkativeness... Luo Jia will not know Sora's full name, and this kind of thing will not happen..." "...No one thought of this kind of thing, don't blame yourself anymore." Cole tried to comfort his partner: "...Actually, to be honest, if I encountered the situation that guy's own team encountered at this time, I would also fight against Kong... because I simply have no way to believe that a person who is ordinary in my eyes The Pirates may save my friends from someone who is so terrible in my eyes. Although I understand, I still can't forgive him... But Lu, this kind of thing has nothing to do with you, the boss didn't blame you , and everyone didn’t blame you, so you don’t need to blame yourself.” Cole, who had been babbling, saw that Lu’s eyes gradually became firmer: “…I must stop all this, if it’s true, what happened? If it happened, I might never be able to forgive myself for the rest of my life."

Since yesterday's incident, the queen has been in a deep sleep.This made the pirates who have long regarded her as an indispensable companion very anxious. It is already eleven o'clock in the morning, but in just a few hours, all the pirates have racked their brains to think about her. Many methods have been proposed, and I hope to use these methods to change the empty space back to its original state.

Some people suggested that sea water might have a certain effect on this situation. After all, Troga has a devil fruit ability, and devil fruit ability users can't do anything about sea water. Maybe, soaking the queen's whole body in sea water can remove The effect brought by this devil fruit.As soon as this proposal appeared, everyone agreed to bring up a lot of seawater, because they were afraid that the queen's seemingly fragile body would be hurt after entering the cold seawater, so the pirates who are carefree on weekdays. Carefully heated the sea water, and then carefully moved the queen into the bathtub, looking at the queen expectantly, hoping for a miracle to happen.

But what is frustrating is: the queen still didn't open her eyes, she put her hands together on her lower abdomen, laying on her back in the bathtub in a regular and dignified manner, as if she was used to using it even when she was sleeping. She fell into a deep sleep in this regular and old-fashioned sleeping position, no matter how the pirates called, there was no way to wake the Queen from her deep sleep.

The pirates, who didn't understand what giving up meant, tried various methods to wake up the queen from her deep sleep, but the queen didn't even open her eyes.Just when everyone was feeling powerless, the queen slowly opened her eyes. Just as she opened her eyes, she felt severe pain in the back of her head, which made the queen involuntarily groan: "...uh!"

"!!" Everyone raised their eyes in surprise, and shouted excitedly: "My God, you finally woke up, Kong!! How are you doing now? How do you feel? Is there any discomfort? Think Don’t want to drink water? Do you feel dry in your throat, sad or something?”

"Is there anything you want to eat? I'll make it for you right away!" Seeing the queen's bewildered expression, Cole was so happy that he almost jumped up!

"Do you feel uncomfortable now?" Kate's face, which had not shown much expression, also showed a very obvious smile at this time.

"Is Kong waiting for the boss? That idiot went to dry your wet clothes, and he hasn't come back yet, just wait, I'll call him right away!" Kuink looked at the bewildered queen , felt that the most important thing was for the person he liked to appear in front of him in such a situation where he had endured such grievances, so after saying a word to Kong in a hurry, he hurried to the deck, Looking at the red-haired man who was silently drying the wet clothes he took off from the Queen, he shouted excitedly: "Boss! Don't dry the clothes first, you've woken up! Go and accompany her!"

"I'm sorry, Kong, I'm all to blame for this matter..." Lu Yi heard the queen opened his eyes, and hurriedly squeezed away from the crowd, and said to the queen very apologetically: "...If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't suffer This kind of grievance..."

"...That..." The queen, who was half lying on the bed, shrank back in a panic for some reason, looked at this group of people who were very strange to her, and said anxiously: "...you, who are you? Ah... I, I don't know you, where is this... Wasn't I in the castle before... Where did you come from?"

"..." The originally lively and joyful atmosphere turned cold because of the Queen's words. Everyone froze their smiling faces and took a few steps back in disbelief.And Shanks, who had just learned the good news that Sora had woken up, after hearing this sentence that was a huge blow to him, his mind went blank for a while, and he froze in place.

"..." Beckman, who has always been very calm, also restrained his smile after hearing the Queen's words. He slowly pushed away the pirates blocking the Queen's body, a pair of deep eyes His eyes looked deeply at the queen's eyes: "... Please forgive my impoliteness, I don't know if Miss is a Genius this year?"

"...Ten, 13 years old." The queen, not just the future queen, she is just a young girl who has just received the royal family tutorial not long ago, and the young girl replied a little shyly.

"13 years old?!" Even Beckman, who had been paying attention to the girl's facial expression to prevent her from lying, was stunned on the spot after hearing this sentence: "Aren't you already over 500 years old this year?"

"I'm really 13 years old!" The 18-year-old future queen in the shell of an 13-year-old girl replied in a panic: "My bloodline was only awakened half a year ago. I'm really only 13 years old this year. I'm not lying!"

"...So that's it, we understand." Beckman tried hard to control his mood, and tried his best to squeeze out a natural-looking smile at the bewildered girl: "Let's go out first, after all A lot of people staying here is not good for you to rest, wait for a while, we will send someone to explain to you what happened recently, what do you think?"

"Okay, I understand." The girl who was still very inferior because of her blood and origin, after hearing this sentence, nodded subconsciously: "I'm sorry to bother you."

"No trouble, no trouble." The people also noticed the unease that the girl was trying to hide in her eyes, and left here very considerately.

"...What the hell is going on?" The bewildered girl hugged her legs silently.

As soon as the pirates came out, they gathered in the hall downstairs.Beckman glanced at Shanks who obviously hadn't come to his senses, sighed, and said: "Although I have made some preparations before, I never thought about forgetting all of us this time." Well, the soul that was pulled from the past by Troga and stuffed into Sora's present body seems to be only about 13 years old, but we have absolutely no idea what kind of habits and personality Sora has when he is 13 years old. I understand. But judging from my communication with the 13-year-old Kong just now, she should have developed a cowardly and timid character since she was a child, even with a little inferiority complex. She promised me to let us quit Come, not relying on your own judgment at all, but subconsciously obeying the orders of the people around you and agreeing, which shows that maybe Sora didn't live a very good life at that time."

"...We have no idea how to solve Kong's current state, but in any case, Kong is empty. I think what we need to do now is to find someone to take good care of her, and then wait for Tro After that guy wakes up, ask him hard again to see if there is any way to make Sora recover."

"As for the person who can always take care of her personally..." Beckman turned to look at the red-haired man who gradually calmed down amidst these narrations: "Boss, we are inconvenient after all, and I will leave this matter to you gone."

"I understand. I will take good care of her." Shanks nodded calmly, and everyone was silent for a while. The red-haired man who was hostile to the lives of the members of the pirate group raised his head, and said with a cold expression that no one has seen before: "...As for the matter of going to rescue the pirate group that Troga belongs to, let's put it aside for now. For a while, now I don't have so much extra time to take care of other people's affairs. If he keeps his own place on the boat and obediently cooperates with telling him the weakness of his ability, the treatment will be the same. If he continues to resist, I hope that through this If you try to make me shake my will in a stupid way..."

"...Then let them be wiped out." Beckman showed that smiling expression again, and took up the words from the red-haired man: "...and let him watch."

"That's it, I'll go up first." The red-haired man stood up under Lu's disbelieving expression, and left the hall.

"Boss!" Lu wanted to say something, but Beckman, who had been smiling all the time, pressed his shoulders hard. A very cold voice said to him: "Lu, what do you want to do."

After hearing such a voice, Lu's mind went blank, and he was pushed back onto the sofa by Beckman: "...Anyone who does anything has to bear the consequences of doing it. I know you and Troga are doing well now, but are you going to betray the comrades who fought alongside you for this new friend?"

"...I didn't..."...Damn it...it's all my fault... Lu was once again overwhelmed by the guilt in his heart.

"What's more, it's not impossible for that guy to make up for it. Have you forgotten what the boss said? As long as Troga can tell us the weaknesses of his abilities, and cooperate with us to change the sky back to its original form, boss He has always been open and magnanimous, and he will definitely choose to forgive him and help Troga save his pirate group." After saying this sentence, Beckman patted the road that suddenly came to his senses meaningfully, and then followed slowly. All those who left left together.

"Yes, if I can get Troga to save this matter!!" Lu Meng suddenly realized, and hurriedly went to find his friend Troga who had been resting on his bed to recuperate.

But in this case, everyone has forgotten a question - the queen's body is now occupied by the soul of a 13-year-old girl, so where is the queen's soul?

When the red-haired man was about to go to the second floor to take care of the young girl, the Queen also quietly opened her eyes from a small and dark space, but before she had time to figure out the situation in front of her, she heard There was a very familiar heartbeat.Then came a familiar voice from the warm wall behind: "Hello, my name is Shanks, can I go in now?"

"Okay, please come in." A familiar voice came from not far away, making the Queen stiffen: ...that voice is... the voice of my concubine? !After realizing this, not only did the queen not become terrified by this unknown situation, but she became very angry, as proud as she was, and never allowed the existence of replicas: ... these damn bastards Who the hell dares to plot concubine like this? !Once the concubine knows who it is, the concubine will definitely let that bastard know what life is worse than death! !

The queen began to struggle in this small space, trying to leave this dark and small space, and use her own eyes to see the ins and outs of the matter: what is going on? ! !
