Chapter 138 Nico Robin is motionless

[Series at the beginning of the chapter·Big News 4·"Do you know where this person is?"] [South China Sea. A certain island, a certain town. An old man wearing a pointed hat holding an old newspaper asked passers-by about the whereabouts of the person mentioned in the news. The passers-by's faces changed, waved their hands, and dodged again and again.]鈥斺 The second of the three sisters, with long green hair as soft and curly as seaweed, the girl named Boa Sandersonia, who was named after the palace lantern lily, noticed that her elder sister Boa Hancock was absent-minded and reminded her: "Sister, instructor Cosmos (named after cosmos) is watching you..."

"Who cares about her?" Hancock continued to look away.

"Hancock!" Cosmos, a tall, short-haired adult female warrior with a long snake coiled on her shoulder, shouted at the absent-minded black-haired girl in the front row of the group of girls, "Please pay attention during training."

"But..." Hancock turned her head and bit her pink jelly-like lips, looking pitiful. "Because being domineering is not difficult for me, I can't cheer myself up. If I'm not careful..."

My elder sister is so cute... The green-haired second sister, Boa Sandersonia, and the orange-haired third sister, Boa Marigold (whose name comes from marigold), stared at their elder sister blankly.

The other Nine Snake girls who participated in the training, regardless of age, were stunned by Hancock's shy behavior.

Not far away, Robin, who was sitting in front of the gate of the stand-in castle, couldn't help but be distracted by such beauty. Hancock was surprisingly pretty and cute when she didn't have much expression before. At this time, she deliberately catered to the shy and pitiful style of others, which made people unable to refuse and softened their hearts...

She is so beautiful, why does she need such acting skills?

Why does she need such beauty when she has such acting skills?

With such beauty and acting skills, her lethality increases exponentially.

Robin, who was admiring the show, turned his head for some reason and immediately saw Lynch, who was sitting next to him, also looking immersed in it.

Robin suddenly woke up.

Lin Qi said to himself: "Damn it, this chick hasn't even eaten the fruit yet, but she's still this strong?"

In fact, if you think about it carefully, the comics don’t seem to directly state that the Empress’s extraordinary beauty is the “side effect” of the Sweet-Sweet Fruit.

The only suspected evidence is what the Empress said to Luffy when she was crying in Chapter 521 of the manga: "The irony is... when we were slaves... they (the Celestial Dragons) made us eat the Sweet-Sweet Fruit and the Snake-Snake Fruit (two) for fun, which allowed us to deceive the country... and keep secrets (the identity mark of the Celestial Dragon slaves on the back, the Flying Dragon Hoof)..."

At first glance, it seems to be saying that because of the Sweet-Sweet Fruit, the empress has gained the invincible charm of "no matter how arrogant she is, she will be forgiven by everyone", so she can easily deceive the country.

If that's what you mean...

Well, there was no need for her to mention the other "Snake Fruit" that her two sisters had eaten in this passage.

On the other hand, "capable of deceiving an entire nation", the Snake Fruit is just as important as the Sweet Fruit.

If you want to explore the true meaning of the empress's words, you must first review how she deceived the country...

It is a legendary story about the battle between the Gorgon Witch and the three Gorgon sisters.

"The Gorgon is the name of a monster that appeared in the outer sea before. It is a terrifying monster that will turn anyone into stone if they make eye contact with it. After the adventure, the three sisters of Snake Princess successfully defeated the Gorgon, but before the monster died, it cast a terrible "curse" on the three warriors... The monster left huge eyes on the backs of the three sisters of Snake Princess. When they take off their clothes and let the "eyes" appear, everyone nearby will turn into stone and die..."

This is the so-called method used by the three empress sisters to deceive the country.

It's not about beauty.

But with fear and emotion.

The fear that if I looked at their backs, I would turn into stone and die.

As brave warriors, the three sisters killed the terrible monster and moved the people who admired strength.

so……

The Snake-Snake Fruit is a footnote to this carefully woven lie.

The same goes for sweet fruits.

Only when there really are citizens who "turned into stone and died after looking at their backs" will this lie become a convincing reality.

Only then can people believe that the legendary monster called the Gorgon really existed.

Then the fighting deeds of the three sisters and the story of being "cursed" will convince the people and spread the horror of the "curse".

In this way, the inner demons of the three sisters, who were unwilling to recall the painful memories of being abused as slaves by the Celestial Dragons, could be covered up as they wished... As for whether the Sweet-Sweet Fruit gave the Empress a stronger and more inexplicable charm, it was actually a matter of no importance. Because even if the three sisters were replaced by three ugly bastards, on the Nine Snake Island where strength is beauty, their "lie" could still reap the desired effect.

…Lynch nodded smugly, took off the mask that was covering his face and flipped through the comic book, threw it out of the hole, and flew back to BIB's head.

"Huh?" Lynch noticed that the girl next to him was indifferent to Hancock's charm. Her face had no special expression as usual. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "You don't feel anything at all?"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Robin smiled softly, "No."

"That's right!" Lynch nodded, thinking of Sister Robin's unique aesthetic that was hard to describe.

"..." Robin glanced at him and found that he didn't notice his unhappiness at all, and couldn't help feeling a little depressed.

Should I act more unhappy? But I don't seem that unhappy...

Anyway, why should I be unhappy? Luo touched her chin and fell into deep thought.

She stood up and walked into the ghost castle. "I'm going to read a book."

He had only taken two steps when Lynch grabbed his wrist. He staggered a few steps in surprise, and was dragged back by Lynch, forced to sit down.

After these days, with sufficient daily exercise and excessive nutrition, Lin Qi's height is growing every day. Now he is nearly twelve years old, and his height is already more than 1.6 meters, close to 1.7 meters. He has a well-proportioned body and well-proportioned muscles. If it weren't for his overly tender face, it wouldn't be a problem to say that he is a short young man...

"..." Robin turned and looked at him blankly.

Lin Qi pointed to the group of Nine Snake female warriors outside who had already started explaining the domineering training, "You should also listen to it. If you can learn it, it's better to learn it together."

Robin was silent for a moment, sat down obediently, and nodded: "Okay."

"If you want to find the historical text, you must be able to face the World Government and the Navy's pursuit. It's always a good idea to improve your own combat effectiveness." Lin Qi said, "What effect will the Hana-Hana Fruit have when combined with Armament Haki? I'm also very curious..."

Armament Haki... Robin listened to the explanation of the adult female warrior Cosmos outside and suddenly realized, "It is because of this thing that their arrows have such extraordinary destructive power, right?"

She couldn't help but imagine that if she used the arms that the Hana-Hana no Mi grew, she could also gain such power...

Maybe, it's really amazing.
