One Piece: My Spirit

It has been more than half a day since we left Punk Hazard. On the boat, Coral came to Robin's side softly with Mary Luli in his arms.

"What's wrong?"

Robin put down the part in his hand and brought out the materials from the Punk Hazard Research Institute, and looked at the coral suspiciously.

Coral glanced at Shire, who was sitting next to Robin, who was also reading the materials, looking hesitant to speak.

Charles also understood all of a sudden, got up and stretched his waist and said, "I'll go to the kitchen and make you something to eat."

"No, I have a question and I want to ask you."

Coral faltered and finally stated the purpose, and Charles raised his eyebrows unexpectedly. He thought that Coral had some "female topics that men should not hear" and wanted to "talk" with Robin in secret.

Charles glanced at the two cups that had bottomed out on the table: "Then I'll make another cup of coffee, let's talk slowly."

Not long after, Charles delivered three cups of steaming black coffee to the table, and at the same time handed a cup of freshly squeezed mango juice to Mary Luli.

"Oh~ it's so bitter!"

After Shan Shan took a sip of coffee, she couldn't help sticking out her tongue, her face wrinkled like a bitter melon.

Robin gave Shire an angry look, as if he saw through Shire's 'prank' at a glance.

"Hey, this is black coffee. Many people are not used to its bitter taste at first, so if you are trying it for the first time, you can add a little milk or coconut milk."

As he said that, Robin poured coconut milk into Coral's cup, and Coral took another sip carefully, his eyes widened in an instant, and he looked at Robin in surprise:

"It's really not that bitter anymore! Although there is still a little bit of bitterness, it is bitter with sweetness. It's delicious!"

Speaking of Coral, she narrowed her eyes and took a sip, her face was full of happiness and excitement, she seemed to have finally found how to overcome the problem of 'drinking bitter coffee', and finally proved that she is an adult!
"You're really used to her!" Charles complained sourly from the side.

"Aren't you deliberately bullying her~"

Robin also added coconut milk to his cup before slowly tasting it. The aroma and color of the coffee brought by Shire, for Robin, an experienced coffee lover, immediately discovered Shire’s "little trick".

No matter how dull Robin is, he will not fail to see through the little tricks played by Charles.

Charles, who was seen through, was also blushing and heart-beating, and seemed to have no flaws. Then when Charles was about to add coconut milk to his cup, he was surprised to find that it was gone.

Huh. Gone?Why is it gone? !I obviously prepared a portion for three people!

Suddenly, Charles suddenly looked at Robin as if he had thought of something, and saw Robin smiling: "Oh, it's the first time I've seen coral, so I accidentally added a little more hand shaking, I think you don't mind."

At this moment, in Charles' eyes, Robin was like a little devil, with two devil's horns growing out of his head, holding a trident in his hand, which made Charles shudder.

"Of course it doesn't matter." Charles forced a smile.

bitter!
Really bitter!
Charles took a sip and put down the coffee calmly, then looked at the coral that looked like a little squirrel gnawing on a pine cone: "Okay, coral, do you have any troubles? As a successful life mentor, I can still provide good advice."

At this time, Shire seemed very reliable, and as he himself said, he was a life mentor who could listen to the girl's worries and troubles and give [-]-point reliable advice.

Of course, the premise is that they are meeting Shire for the first time.

Coral glanced at Charles with distaste, and then said seriously: "Ahem, I want to ask you what you think about Mo. That Snow Maiden?"

Both Charles and Robin were a little surprised that Coral actually cared about this.

"You mean, Monet shouldn't be let go?"

Coral nodded, and then waited for Charles to give an explanation. Charles pondered for a while before slowly saying: "Actually, you probably know about Monet's experience, right? After all, it's just a way for Doflamingo to win over and control people's hearts. It's understandable for you to feel pity and empathy for Coral."

"Wait! I... I don't have empathy for that snow girl!"

"Okay, I misunderstood." Coral quickly retorted in embarrassment.

Charles didn't break through Coral, but continued: "I know Coral you want to save her, but I've said it before, no one can save her, only she can save her. Only she can break the birdcage that Doflamingo wove, and it's useless for us outsiders to do it."

Coral remained silent, because she already understood what Shire meant to some extent. To keep her, no matter whether it was atonement or how to deal with it, it was just going from one cage to another.

"Then why did you kill him in the end?"

"Haha, it's just my bad taste, even if Doflamingo's methods are exposed, so what?

It's just that everyone's circumstances are different, and I can't make Monet forget this "kindness", even if there are other intentions behind it.

But, since Doflamingo gave her life, I'll kill her. "

Robin, Coral: "."

Shire's half-truth and half-false words also made Coral somewhat confused, but as Shire himself said, although Doflamingo had ulterior motives from the beginning, for Monet, he actually saved her from that extremely unfortunate environment.

In the end, it was Monet himself who made the decision, not Charles, but at the end, when Monet took the initiative to come to Charles, Charles understood her inner thoughts to some extent.

Since this life was given by Doflamingo, then give it back to him.

What Charles cut off with this knife was actually the false bond between Monet and Doflamingo, of course he thought so.

"I'm just doing it casually, anyway, what happens to that Snow Girl in the future has nothing to do with me." Charles shrugged and replied.

"It's Coral, why do you care so much about that Snow Maiden? Just like those little kids, I don't know what's so good about that Snow Maiden, but you still protect her like this."
