Chapter 189 Strong Water, Deadly Medicine, SAD
In the night, the sea breeze was blowing in the distance... Well, this is the doldrums, there is not a trace of sea breeze.
There is no wind, but my heart is moving.
"No wonder two places so far apart have so many similarities..."
Through the memory playback of "BIB", Lin Qi looked through the cover pages of the 877th and 879th chapters of One Piece comics. It recorded that after Lao Cai earned a wife for nothing in the Dressrosa chapter, he returned to his hometown, the Kingdom of Flowers, to dissolve his marriage with his fiancée, Huo Lisha, the daughter of Erbao's navy pillar... The style of the architecture of the Kingdom of Flowers that appeared in the background picture of this cover page is exactly the same as that of the architecture of the Women's Kingdom of Nine Snake Island! Lin Qi took off his stand mask and was suddenly full of thoughts.
Seeing that Robin was very confused, Lynch casually put the visor on her face.
“You can see it now. Focus on using your observation Haki…”
Robin was confused, but did as he was told.
After all, she is not Lynch who is talented and willing to practice hard, nor is she Hancock who is born with domineering talent... She is not good at fighting and domineering. If Lynch hadn't used "BIB" to assist, she probably wouldn't have been able to learn domineering.
To use Observation Haki, Robin needs to be very focused, which means the reading time is much longer than Lynch and Hancock.
As her observation Haki gradually became active... Robin slowly saw a dark object covering her face. Only then did she understand what Lynch had just done to her face.
It was the mask of his ghost. And at this moment, my sight was just behind the narrow white eyes of Lin Qi's ghost...see what it sees! Fighting with the female warriors, days and nights in the woods outside the Nine Snake Island, getting along with so many ferocious monsters on the island of Ruskaina...flying in the calm sea, being chased by the people on the flower boat of Happy Street...the conflict with the navy...Boing Islands, Hercules...the demons on Momoshiki Island...on the Mechanical Island, avoiding the search of Vice Admiral Borsalino, the research materials of Dr. Vegapunk, the research institute that was blown up to the sky...the entrance to the Grand Line, the Upside-Down Mountain, the lighthouse keeper Dr. Kulokas, and the whale Lab who left the island alone...
In an instant, the past scenes flashed back, as if traveling upstream in the long river of time. Robin suddenly realized that he and Lynch had experienced so many things and seen so many landscapes without realizing it...
The memory flashed back very quickly. In just a few breaths, "BIB" had already turned to what the main body wanted to turn out.
The first thing Robin saw through the eyes of the mask was a tombstone.
On the stone tablet was a photo of a woman laughing cheerfully, with her name written on it - Lily.
"Hello." The owner of the perspective said, took two white wild flowers from the side and placed them in front of the tombstone. Then the owner of the perspective sat down and waved the letter in his hand towards the photo of the woman on the tombstone. "So, I opened it and read it?"
Robin understood immediately. This was Lynch's memory. It was the suicide letter he had read at his mother's grave.
“……”Robin turned to look at Lynch.
Lynch nodded. "You didn't read the letter at the time, did you? Read it."
Robin continued reading.
When Robin looked at the main character, BIB paused the flashback very considerately. Only when Robin regained his attention did it continue playing.
…
"Mom is from the Land of Flowers."
…
"I didn't mean to hide it from others... but they all asked! Although the ancient custom of naming after flowers is not very popular in the Kingdom of Flowers, I'm still very unhappy... so, hmm, I won't tell them."
…
"Mom will tell you a story about the Kingdom of Flowers~"
"Once upon a time, in ancient times anyway, there was a princess named Lily in the Kingdom of Flowers - yes, the same name as your mother! Great, right? Princess Lily was the treasure of the Kingdom of Flowers, but in order to retrieve the national treasure of the Kingdom of Flowers, she bravely went to the endless sea. Well, that's the end of the story!"
"Mom has admired this princess with the same name as me since she was a child, so she foolishly sneaked out to sea... What a headache, I didn't expect you to run away too, Lin Qi. Mom should have stayed in the Kingdom of Flowers!"
…
"If you can see this letter, please go back and check on my mom's behalf in the future, okay..."
…
The memory of reading the suicide note stops at the last line with messy handwriting.
Robin blinked and held back her tears. She knew what happened next. It was the sudden attack of the devil sheriff named Lafayette...
"That's what Princess Bai Tian said, right? The name of the first emperor of the Nine Snakes Women's Kingdom is... Lily."
Lynch lay on the top of the city wall, looking up at the starry sky.
"Most of the women in the Nine Snakes are named after flowers..." Robin murmured to herself, and the mask on her face quietly flew off and fell back on the head of "BIB" who was standing quietly beside her.
Lin Qi said: "I don't think there should be so many coincidences! So it's probably the same person. Lily, who founded this Nine Snakes Women's Kingdom, is the former princess of the Flower Kingdom, Lily."
Robin pursed her lips, "That is to say...the princess of the Flower Kingdom, and the national treasure your mother was looking for, is actually the Flower-Flower Fruit."
"The kingdom of flowers, flowers and fruits." Lin Qi smiled faintly, "Think about it, it makes sense, doesn't it?"
It is not unimaginable to make devil fruits a national treasure.
All you need is the technique to pass down a specific Devil Fruit.
In the ancient country of sand, Alabasta, they have two guardian gods, the eagle and the jackal, and they happen to have two devil fruits, the "Bird-Bird Fruit·Falcon Form" and the "Dog-Dog Fruit·Jackal Form"...
This is no coincidence. Alabasta has the technology to inherit the Devil Fruit.
Lynch, who had a lot of information about Dr. Vegapunk, connected the plots of many comics and immediately found some clues...
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The "luxurious water" that appeared in the Alabasta arc.
A kind of highly poisonous water. Drinking it can give you great power, but the side effect is that it can kill you in a short period of time.
When all these elements are put together, it’s hard not to associate them with the SAD solution that appeared on the ice and fire island Punk Hazard!
This is the basic ingredient that Caesar uses to make the SMIE Devil Fruit.
There is no conclusive evidence that the candies eaten by gigantic children contain ingredients of SAD solution.
But when some familiar elements appear again and again, it is hard not to make associations and speculations.
For example, elements like "inherited specific devil fruit" + "highly poisonous medicine that can gain powerful strength but kill people" have actually appeared in Fishman Island.
Target fruit. Deadly medicine.
Finding patterns in the permutations and combinations can also yield a clue like this... One, a certain raw material is extremely poisonous; two, people can gain short-term powerful strength after eating it; three, it is related to the Devil Fruit.
In the Alabasta chapter, one and two appeared, and three were hidden; in Fishman Island, one and two appeared, and three were hidden; in Punk Hazard Island, one and three appeared, and two were hidden.
If there is a similar "poison drug" in the Kingdom of Flowers...
Lynch thought about this and was a little puzzled. Since the Flower Kingdom regards the Flower-Flower Fruit as a national treasure, it is very likely that they have the technology to pass down the Flower-Flower Fruit from generation to generation. Why would they let the Flower-Flower Fruit be lost outside?
Robin looked up at the stars and whispered, "It would have been nice to know this then... I could have told your mother that you had found the national treasure she was trying to find."
"Yeah," Lynch said. "What a shame."
"Um."
…
Nine Snake Island, the sky is clear, cloudless, and windless...
Will it rain tomorrow ?
PS: I forgot to mention yesterday that Robin is actually the name of a flower.
Robin, also known as Rubin, is a succulent plant of the genus Echeveria in the Crassulaceae family. It was bred by Romeo and its leaves are brighter red than Romeo.
There is also a flower called Robina, which is a type of lily, so it can also be called Robina lily~ This subtle name
I personally prefer to read novels on the web. So sometimes PS is written in the main text, and I want to see what the chapter says... The chapter of "Author's Words" cannot be seen on the web...
