Chapter 607 Betting Everything on a Future Without the Black Dragon
[Chapter Header Serialization·Heart Pirates 15·"Mr. Corazon, it turns out you're a good person!"]
[On the shore, the black-haired girl crying in the storm jumped forward as if her feet exploded, and she jumped across the sea and fell towards the small boat. Corazon swooped down on the boat and almost knocked it directly into the sea...]——
Xianglian's attitude surprised Robin. She didn't expect that when she mentioned Lynch's mother Lily, Lily's sworn sister would have such a reaction.
Xiangchun, who brought Xingtian here, was also surprised. She didn't expect that this headless monster who looked like Kujo Jolyne would suddenly mention the name of the woman who was taboo in front of her eldest sister.
That woman had disappeared for thirty years. How did Kujo Jolyne know of her existence? Although he was suspicious, Xiangchun still tried to calm his elder sister who was about to run away.
She tried her best to hold down Xianglian, who was tied to a stone pillar with heavy chains, and shouted, "Calm down, big sister! She was the one who saved me from the prison, and she is my benefactor! - And she also wants to fight against the black dragon, she can be our ally!"
Xianglian's struggling movements slowly stopped. She was still staring at the two eyes on the headless monster's chest. Although they were positioned in a strange position, they were indeed beautiful...
"Do you want to kill Jin Zanxue too?" she asked coldly.
"Golden Hairpin Snow?" Xing Tian asked.
Xiang Chun sighed, "It is the name of this generation's Black Dragon' leader."
Xianglian sat on the stone pillar and said disdainfully: "The Black Dragon clan, taking gold as their surname, is so vulgar, bah! They are ruining this pure and clean country of flowers."
Gold is just a kind of metal. Whether it is vulgar or noble depends on the person who is judging it... Robin thought so, but there was no need to refute it. He controlled the mouth that grew from Xing Tian's belly button and said, "I can indeed be your ally. That's why I want to find out more about the 'history' that has happened on this land... From what I heard, the 'black dragon' you mentioned - that is, the mythical beast species of the Fish-Fish Fruit, the black dragon form, has been passed down from generation to generation in the lord's lineage for the past three hundred years?"
"..." Xiangchun nodded silently.
The mute old man next to him wailed, as if he had recalled a bad memory. He pounded his head with a look of pain on his face.
Xianglian, who was tied to the stone pillar, looked down upon him and suddenly asked, "Is the Divine Infant Fruit Tree destroyed?"
Xiang Chun nodded sadly and said, "Well... Xiang Yun sacrificed himself and burned the God Infant Fruit Tree. Now, the black dragon is raging over the Water City..."
Xianglian sneered repeatedly: "Of course he will be angry!"
She raised her eyes to look at the headless monster, "Now to answer your question - yes, that's right! The Black Dragon has been passed down from generation to generation because Jin Xiao plotted against the royal family of the Kingdom of Flowers, stole the throne, and took the royal treasure 'Divine Infant Fruit Tree' for himself. It is because of the Divine Infant Fruit Tree that they have been able to keep the Black Dragon Fruit in their hands..." Her tone began to grit her teeth. Robin could imagine that these members of the Luzhu League who rebelled against the king must have suffered a lot at the hands of the powerful Black Dragon in the past three hundred years.
"Jinxiao is the name of the black dragon who became the king more than three hundred years ago."
Xiangchun explained for Xingtian, then shook his head and said, "It is because of the existence of the 'Black Dragon' that the Luzhu League has not been able to resist and overthrow the rule of the Huangjin Family, which has usurped the throne of the country for more than three hundred years..."
Xianglian said sarcastically, "Of course they are strong, otherwise, how could the Erbao Navy and the Babao Navy have the nerve to surrender so shamelessly?"
"..." Robin thought of the historical text information he got on the Interest Island of the Loan Shark King.
The P-particle technology recorded in that record...
In this kingdom of flowers, in addition to the pollen that the black-armored killers took before, which can overdraw vitality in exchange for a burst of power, it seems that there is also the so-called divine infant fruit tree that can inherit a specific devil fruit...
——"The high concentration of PYROSADO solution and the fruits of the plants cultivated with it have the property of attracting particles of the second type of bloodline factor."
It seems that an ancient country like the Flower Kingdom, which has existed for thousands of years and joined the World Government eight hundred years ago, still retains some of the ancient technologies recorded in the historical texts.
She controlled Xing Tian and asked, "So, your plan this time is for Xiangchun to assassinate the king, attract the attention of the people inside and outside the palace, and then your third brother will destroy the God Infant Fruit Tree... so that the inheritance of the 'Black Dragon' will be cut off?"
Without waiting for the two girls to answer, Xing Tian said to himself, "Indeed, when there is no hope of defeating the black dragon, this is a very feasible method...
"You've gambled your last chance of victory on a future decades from now, a future without the Black Dragon."
Robin's voice echoed in the silent underground cave. Apart from the sound of each other's breathing, there was only the faint sound of the candles burning on the stone wall.
The candlelight flickered.
"Can you let me go?" Xianglian said lightly.
Xiangchun looked at the mute old man beside him. The mute was startled, fumbled around to find the key, and handed it to Xiangchun.
"So you were willing to go against Xianglian's wishes and tie her up, keeping the 'last true successor of the Luzhu League' here, just so that she can wait until the time when the Black Dragon is gone..." Xing Tian asked, "However, the Divine Infant Fruit Tree should be a very important thing. How are you sure you can find it in the palace and destroy it?" If it was so easy to do, then someone should have done it a hundred or two hundred years ago, when the Luzhu League was not just Xianglian.
The heavy iron chain fell to the ground with a clang. Xianglian rubbed his arm and looked coldly at the dumb old man who was sighing beside him. "This is all thanks to our good doctor."
"Him?" Xing Tian turned his head - oh, no head - and looked at the mute.
Xiang Chun showed disdain and sneered, "Yes, he was once the best doctor under Black Dragon. However, after being captured by us, he can no longer be trusted by Black Dragon!"
The mute sobbed, sighed, nodded, shook his head, and finally slapped his head and squatted aside.
"He seems to be in pain..."
The two Robin eyes on Xing Tian's chest observed the mute old man.
Sisters Xianglian and Xiangchun just sneered. It was obvious that this old man, who was once Black Dragon's right-hand man, could not gain their sympathy.
Robin didn't hesitate. She obviously wanted to know something else from Xianglian.
Xing Tian asked in a deep voice: "I want to know more about the 'history' of this place - but since we are going to deal with the Black Dragon, I am particularly interested in the female ranger named Lily who is said to be the only one who has ever stabbed the 'Black Dragon'."
As soon as she finished speaking, before the others could do anything, the mute old man went crazy, looking at the headless Xing Tian in fear, and crawled to the side, whimpering.
Xiangchun glanced at him coldly and ignored him.
"Female Ranger..." Xianglian muttered, staring at the headless man, "Who did you hear about her from?!"
A dull "ventriloquy" came from under Xing Tian's clothes: "The psychic grandma and A-Yu from Louzhu Village..."
Xiangchun was shocked, and Xianglian immediately shouted, "Bullshit! How could they risk their lives to say such nonsense?!"
"...More than that, they told us,"
Xing Tian finished his words, "Ayu is the bloodline of Princess Lily from more than 300 years ago, and is the legitimate heir of the royal family of the Kingdom of Flowers..."
………………
〖Luzhu Village——〗
"Although the Black Dragon is very powerful, if it's just the two of you..."
When the psychic grandma thought of this, her old heart trembled and all kinds of complicated emotions surged in her heart.
For three hundred years, the Black Dragon has been invincible in their eyes...
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
However, they do know that in the outside world, in that endless ocean, there must be an invincible strongman who can defeat the hateful black dragon! For example, this man in front of them, Giovanna Giorno, who was once rumored in the newspapers to compete with the legendary Whitebeard...
Even if he couldn't defeat the Black Dragon, he wouldn't be much weaker than it. After all, it was a powerful pirate who stirred up the New World in the Grand Line and was recognized by the World Government as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea! But...
Do they have to rely on outsiders to save the misfortunes of their Flower Country? Although the psychic grandmother was not so pedantic as to refuse such help and salvation, when she thought of the bloody history that this land had experienced for three hundred years, the pain and bitterness in her heart were difficult to describe for a moment.
"Come with me..."
The psychic grandma sighed, and Ayu followed her silently.
"If you want to know the history of this place, then everything must start from there..."
Lynch folded his arms and followed the old lady with Robin. Ah Yu couldn't help but look back at them, and Lynch stuck out his tongue and made a face at her.
Ayu suddenly felt a little envious of Giorno... She then looked at Sister Xu Lun who was standing next to Giorno. However, Sister Xu Lun seemed to be in a trance while walking, as if she was looking at somewhere else.
"What's wrong?" Robin lowered his eyes and looked at Ayu.
"No..." Ayu lowered her head, then raised it to look at Robin. The psychic grandma strode ahead and sighed, "The place we are going to is the place that gave Ayu a 'nightmare' a few years ago - now that I think about it, I am really old and confused. In a place like that, it is natural for Ayu's devil fruit ability to go out of control..."
What place is this... Robin nodded as she thought. At the same time, another image appeared before her eyes. It was Xianglian untying the chains and walking away from the stone pillar. A voice of surprise and shouting soon rang in her ears:
"They even told you this?!"
………………
"They even told you this?!"
Xiangchun and Xianglian shouted at the same time, and the mute old man next to them was also very frightened.
Robin didn't want to explain any more, so he simply changed the order in which he learned that Lily was a female ranger and that Ayu was the descendant of Princess Lily.
Anyway, since A-Yu and the others were willing to tell Lin Qi and the others their true identities, it was reasonable for them to tell Lily about her as well...
Xing Tian sat down on the spot and said slowly: "Now, can we have a good chat? About... you are Lily's sworn sister, but why are you so hostile to her? And so on... I have a lot of doubts."
Bang! Bang! Bang! …
Suddenly, a dull thumping sound was heard in the cave. The three turned their heads and saw a mute old man hitting the ground with his head, causing it to bleed.
Xianglian was too lazy to pay attention, so he sat down on the ground and said expressionlessly: "Since you want to know, I will tell you...
"Back then, the story of that woman who almost slew a dragon..."
………………
【Thirty years ago, in the Kingdom of Flowers...】
[In the Water City, residents feel that their houses and the ground are shaking slightly from time to time.]
【“Is there an earthquake?” Someone hid under a street stall and looked out in confusion. 】
[Someone looked towards the mountains where the palace was located, "It seems to be coming from over there..."]
[“Is the king angry?”]
[The people were terrified, and one by one they began to kneel down toward the mountain where the imperial palace was located. Soon, as if overwhelmed by the wheat fields, they all knelt down one after another. Soon, the entire street was kneeling in awe in that direction.]
[Boom…Boom…Boom…]
[In the mountains, there were dragon roars and fierce noises, as if the sky was collapsing and the earth was splitting.]
[Suddenly, a hundred-meter-long sword energy swept across, cutting off a mountaintop.]
