Chapter 92 Gentle Trap, Marine Fangs!
"Colonel Tsugikoku Yuichi! Brigadier General Kuzan is not a human being!"
"He actually, he actually. He actually."
“.”
In the cockpit, a naval sergeant told Tsugikuni Yoshiichi everything that had happened on the deck before, and also exaggerated what happened after Kuzan brought the girl who fell into the water back to the room.
Between his words, he already regarded Kuzan as a "beast".
Ji Guoyuan sat on the chair, listening with relish to his subordinates accusing Kuzan, and occasionally agreeing with them. During the conversation, they no longer treated Kuzan as a human being.
"Hmmmm, this guy Kuzan is really a beast!"
"I actually did something like this. When I get back, I must tell Mr. Zephyr and Vice Admiral Garp and let them get to know Kuzan again."
"By the way, is the girl who was rescued still not awake?"
Tsugikoku Yoshiichi suddenly asked about the rescued girl. The sergeant choked and paused before answering:
"I don't know. We prepared hot water for the rescued girl and then left Brigadier General Kuzan's room."
"If he had woken up, Brigadier General Kuzan would have opened the door and called for the military doctor."
Upon hearing this, Yunyi nodded slightly and tapped the table lightly, as if thinking about something.
At this moment, the door of the cab was opened. Kuzan, wearing a white suit, walked into the cab with his hands in his pockets and said to Jigoku Yoshiichi:
"We've found a way to get to Dongwu Island!"
As he spoke, Kuzan pulled out a small, irregular piece of paper from his trouser pocket and handed it to Jiguo Yuichi. Jiguo Yuichi took it and placed it in his palm, and saw that the small, irregular piece of paper moved towards the west.
"Is it a life card?!"
"Is this thing from the girl who was rescued?"
Ji Guoyuan's expression condensed slightly, and he asked directly without giving up the "main seat" where he was sitting.
Kuzan obviously didn't care about such details. He sat down on the seat beside him, nodded, and then explained:
"I've already found out everything about Lily's background."
"She lives in the Yaga Islands. Dongwu Island is an island in the Yaga Islands!"
"The merchant ship Lily was on encountered a shipwreck, and she managed to cling to the wreckage with great difficulty, and that's how she survived."
"The Life Card, which belongs to her mother, can guide us to the Yaga Islands."
"No wonder I couldn't find any information about Dongwu Island on the nautical chart. It turns out it's one of the islands!"
As Kuzan spoke, he pointed to the marked Yaga Islands on the nautical chart and spoke to Yuichiro Tsugakuin with a little excitement.
At this time, Jiguo Yuanyi had already frowned, looked at Kuzan doubtfully, and asked:
"Lily is?"
Kuzan smiled and replied, "Sharon Lily, that's the name of the girl we rescued."
"In that case, let's head towards the Yaga Islands."
"By the way, did that girl tell you anything about the Yaga Islands?"
Hearing this, Kuzan shook his head, but before Ji Guoyuan could ask, Kuzan said: "I know some information about the Yaga Islands. The Kingdom of Lisa, a country in the Yaga Islands, is called the Kingdom of Lisa."
"By the way, Sharon is the surname of the Lisa Kingdom. Lily's mother is the king's granddaughter."
"The Lisa Kingdom has a permanent population of approximately 200,000. It is a medium-sized country. Thanks to its developed maritime trade, the Lisa Kingdom is quite wealthy."
"Dongwu Island is a harbor island and the lifeline of the Lisa Kingdom."
Kuzan spoke of some of the information he knew, and Jiguo Yuanyi listened while tapping the table. After Kuzan finished speaking, he couldn't help but ask:
"Kuzan, don't you find it strange?"
"I received a distress call and then immediately met the damsel in distress. Coincidentally, this damsel happened to be from the Yaga Islands and knew about Dongwu Island."
"Will it be?"
Without waiting for Yunyi to finish, Kuzan shook his head and said:
"No."
"How could a damsel in distress adrift at sea possibly know if we could receive a distress call?"
"And just as you said, this is all just a coincidence. It's precisely because of this coincidence that it's not what you imagined."
"Yuichi, do you believe in destiny?"
When Jiguo Yuanyi heard what Kuzan said, he was speechless for a moment.
God's will? To be honest, unlike other realists, he actually believed in God's will. After all, time travel had happened to him twice, so why couldn't he believe in God's will?
It’s just that Yunyi believes in the destiny he encountered, but he doesn’t believe in the destiny that Kuzan talked about.
"Then let's go take a look first."
As Yunyi spoke, he stood up from his seat, holding the life card in his hand, walked to the crew member at the helm, and signaled him to turn around and follow the instructions on the life card.
The green warship sailed for three days, and the sight of land finally appeared in front of everyone.
At the bow of the warship, Kuzan carefully supported a bright-faced girl. When he saw the land, a bright smile appeared on his face.
"Miss Lily, that should be the Yaga Islands, right?"
"My mission is accomplished by getting you to the island!"
Kuzan said with a smile, it was clearly winter, but this boy's face was full of spring.
After all, he was a young boy, and faced with a young girl, he had little resistance at all. Being able to maintain this serious appearance was already very difficult in Yunyi's opinion.
At the cabin entrance, Ji Guoyuan was sitting on the seat at the bottom of the main mast with his legs crossed and a knife in his arms, looking at Kuzan and Lily at the bow from afar, without saying a word for a long time.
As they got closer to the Yaga Islands, the uneasiness in Tsugikoku Yoshiichi's heart became more and more intense. He hadn't felt this way for a long time.
The last time we met was the time before.
At the bow, Sharon Lily smiled softly at Kuzan, then whispered softly, "Thank you, Commodore Kuzan. I don't know how I can repay your kindness."
"Commodore Kuzan, if possible, could you please stay in the Yaga Islands?"
"I think."
Before Sharon Lily could finish, Kuzan scratched the back of his head with a red face and said apologetically, "Sorry! Lily."
"I can't stay in the Yaga Islands. I have a mission to complete."
"After all, I'm a Commodore of the Marine Headquarters!"
"I'm so sorry, Lily."
Listening to Kuzan's answer, Sharon Lily did not show any disappointment. She just gently hugged Kuzan's arm and whispered:
"That's a real shame, Brigadier General Kuzan."
"I originally thought that you could stay in the Yaga Islands."
As he spoke, a burst of fragrance entered Kuzan's nostrils. Kuzan, who had blushed a second ago, now looked gloomy. He sighed softly and said in a deep voice:
"What a pity, Lily."
“You shouldn’t do this.”
"Although I'm only a brigadier general and my adjutant is only a colonel, we can't judge the enemy's strength based solely on our rank!"
"Lily."
As Kuzan spoke, he turned his head and looked at Sharon Lily beside him with a sad face. The girl who had been hugging Kuzan and speaking softly was now stiff and her back was straight.
A black long knife was placed silently on her shoulder at her neck, and the cold murderous aura penetrated her skin and into her body.
"As long as the Haki is strong enough, the power of the Devil Fruit will be ineffective. Miss Lily, you underestimate us!"
I slightly changed the setting of Chapter 84 and added some things to facilitate the plot.
