Rain

I wore a mask that I could buy everywhere, and put on a fancy cloak that echoed the festival. I stood on the roof in the distance against the high wind and looked at the building where Mr. Iceberg lived.The newspaper office was distributing the news that Mr. Bingshan had been assassinated, and the reporters and the crowd were all squatting outside the gate of the dock, eagerly waiting for the news.

Mr. Bingshan merged several shipyards into the current behemoth with his own efforts, provided employment opportunities for the people in the capital of seven waters, signed import and export contracts with other islands, and drove business exchanges... He He is the mayor of the capital of seven waters, and he is respected from the bottom of his heart here.It is no exaggeration to say that he alone brought prosperity and vitality to the city.If he died due to a sudden assassination, the consequences would be disastrous...

The sky was also gloomy, making people breathless, and the gulls that can be seen everywhere were nowhere to be found.The eager crowd finally got the news and cheered: "Mr. Bingshan is awake!" The second news that came out immediately caused the crowd to be uproarious and angry.

"It was Nico Robin who shot! The murderer is the Straw Hat Pirates!"

The city was full of noise, the police sirens of the city of Seven Waters blared, and the broadcast sounded, solemnly repeating the same message: "Everyone, please pay attention—this is the Meteorological Bureau of the City of Seven Waters, and now an alarm for the gods of water is issued to the entire island! It will be tonight, everyone, please be prepared for disasters!" It's that time of year again... The God of Water is an annual large-scale tsunami that will sweep over and flood the lower backstreets of the capital of seven waters.Residents had to evacuate and take refuge in temporarily open docks.

I raised my eyebrows, feeling that this matter has become subtle... As far as I know, Lu Qi and Bruno have been lurking in the capital of seven waters for five years, and they haven't made any moves on the surface.But this time, with Robin's hands, everything was brutally brought out in full view... Is there no need to hide anymore?

At this juncture, there was an earth-shattering commotion at the No. [-] dock. The unbuilt giant ship was even broken and shifted, splashing layers of sawdust and smoke.Taking a closer look, it wasn't Luffy who was punching in the mist from a distance?And standing opposite him... I recognized the figure in only swimming trunks and a floral shirt, squinting dangerously.Franky, who came back from nowhere, is looking for Luffy who ruined his house.

Luffy can handle Franky.

I saw sharply that the ship repairers headed by Lu Qi left the building of Bingshan, and walked towards the dock with a murderous look.After weighing it, he sneaked into the building without anyone noticing, avoiding the ship repairers who spontaneously patrolled and guarded, and successfully came to the bedroom where the iceberg was.

But there was only one other person in the room besides him.

I lightly took out a small bottle from my bag, held my breath, pulled out the stopper, shook it at the crack of the door, and then took it back.After patiently counting for 20 seconds, I started to breathe again, and I was not surprised to hear the sound of heavy objects falling inside.

I opened the door and entered.

On the ground was Kalifa, whom she had not seen for two years, unconscious.

The room was furnished very simply. Mr. Bingshan was lying on the central double bed, also falling into a deep sleep with a pale face.On one side is the workbench, on which the books are neatly arranged.The whole room was empty, except for a wanted poster hanging on the wall.It can be seen that it has been hung for some years, and the edges are beginning to roll up and even turn yellow, but the immature face on it is very familiar.It was Nico Robin who was a child, who destroyed six naval warships at the age of eight, and was wanted since then, with a bounty of 7900 million Baileys.

I closed the door and walked forward quickly, poured a drop of potion on Bingshan's lips, withdrew my hand and stood by the bed, waiting.In just five seconds, Bingshan, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes and seemed a little puzzled.His pupils shrank when he saw me, he took out the gun from under the pillow without hesitation, sat up and pointed it at me.

Although his expression was weak, his hand holding the gun did not shake a bit, and his expression was cold: "You are... a member of the Straw Hat Pirates."

"I have no malice." I took off the mask slowly, and showed him my face without disguise, and said calmly, "I am Rain who used to work at Bruno's Bar."

He looked at my face carefully, did not put down his gun, and his tone did not soften: "What is your purpose here?"

"I used to be a member of the Spades Pirates. Two years ago, my captain Fire Fist Ace joined the Whitebeard Pirates. I chose to leave and live in the capital of seven waters. Because I overheard some words, He was captured by government agents lurking here and taken to the Isle of Light. Nicole Robin is with them now." I looked at him expressionlessly and said sternly, "I think we can cooperate."

Mr. Bingshan is a smart man.He is the most outstanding designer of the capital of seven waters. He runs a world-class shipyard and also serves as the mayor of this prosperous city on the sea. He has built the capital of seven waters into a world-class commercial city.

"So it's like this..." He closed his eyes and slowly put down the gun in his hand.Sitting back on the head of the bed, his whole body was filled with a strange tiredness, "What do you want to do?"

When Khalifa opened her eyes, she was horrified to find herself lying on the ground, stood up instantly, and exclaimed: "Mr. Bingshan..." She realized that she was covered with a blanket, and Bingshan was still lying on the bed. Focusing on the ceiling above his head.Hearing Kalifa's call, he turned his head and looked over, his tone as calm as ever: "What's wrong with Kalifa?"

"Nothing." Kalifa pushed his glasses and looked around without any trace, but found no trace of intrusion.Bingshan's tone was easy-going: "You may be tired, and you seemed to have fallen asleep just now, so I covered you with a blanket... If you are sleepy, go to sleep, I'm fine here."

"No, I'm fine." Kalifa couldn't explain why she was lying on the ground just now, but seeing that everything in Bingshan was normal, she could only keep this question in her heart.Is it just...too tired?

At this time, I was checking the train timetable at the sea station.The conductor stood at the entrance of the carriage to check, not only asking all passengers to show their tickets, but also to take off their masks to confirm that they were not the Straw Hat Pirates.The strong wind blew up the corners of his cloak and even made the sea water turn up abnormal waves.My eyes paused on the metal train watch, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of my mouth under the mask.Despite the attack of the sea gods, all trains after five o'clock are cancelled, except... the express train to the island of light at eleven o'clock tonight.

The announcement was so blatant... They are going to make a settlement tonight, and then take this bus to leave the capital of seven waters.

I sigh, now I have to go back to the Merry to warn everyone to stay out of the way and tell them all I know.Regarding the matter of Robin and Mr. Bingberg... the captain still has to make the final decision...

In the No. 1 dock, the fighting was fierce.

"...We have already inquired from the government, Nicole Robin is your accomplice!" Baooli tightened the rope in his hand, and continued after a pause as if thinking of something, with a stern look on his face, "We want to Get rid of all of you... without leaving behind!"

When I went to the bay, I found Usopp, who smelled like medicine, was hiding behind the rocks not far from the Merry, pulling the slingshot in his hand, and observing the boatmen rummaging on the ship through the cover.

"No one..."

"Looks like they've given up on this wretched ship..."

"I heard that the appraisal was done yesterday, and the ship is exhausted."

"The boat is empty, look elsewhere..."

I squatted behind Usopp and took off the mask, a little puzzled: "Where are you all? Have you already moved?" Looking from a distance, Nami's orange tree is no longer on the boat. Much faster.

Usopp was taken aback, and almost shot the fire star in the slingshot at me, but I quickly held it down.

"Rain!" Usopp didn't stop grabbing the weapon after seeing my face clearly, but added a little more strength, "What are you doing here! We are no longer companions!"

With heavy eyes, I let him take back the slingshot and pointed it at my face.

I stared at Usopp without blinking, and said calmly, "Have you left the Straw Hat Pirates?"

"Yes!" Usopp's hand holding the slingshot was shaking. I don't know if it was because he was seriously injured or because he chose to aim the weapon at his former companions. "The Merry is mine now, so don't come here again." Already!"

Looking at the angry Usopp, what flashed through his mind was the scene of him sitting on the side of the boat with joyful eyebrows, tirelessly telling the story of Kaya sending the boat to him... and he sat in the corner with his knees in depression several times, complaining about himself The fact that the strength can't keep up with us monsters...

He has made his decision.

Since it was his choice, there was no need to involve him in the Nico Robin affair.

"In the second half of the night tonight, the giant tsunami water gods will submerge the periphery of the capital of seven waters." I nodded to Usopp, turned and left, and said in a flat tone, "I can do it myself."

The author has something to say:

Usopp's inferiority...he is a very real character.Not a monster, but a little person.But it is also steadily growing.

Having said that, I newly added my mina~ how did you find it? (curious)

The manuscript box is so pumped that I kind of stuff it... I can't get in at all...
