One Piece Codex

"hateful!"

Walker shook his head, and when the double image disappeared in front of him, Levi had long disappeared.

His irritable expression completely lost the relaxed and freehand expression at the beginning.

The dark wolf sniffed.

"over there!"

[Tsk, haven’t you dumped it yet? 】

Levi frowned slightly as he sensed Walker chasing after him again.Just as he was about to take out his gun and deal with it, he saw a familiar figure.

"Quick! Here!"

In front of the garbage mountain and a pile of waste, Lorna waved her hands towards Levi and shouted.

Without hesitation, Levi ran over.

Upon seeing this, Lorna immediately opened the wooden board behind her, revealing a hole half a person's height.

She got in first, and Levi dived into the hole as well.

The hole was narrow at first, barely enough for people to pass through.After walking quickly for more than ten steps, the passage suddenly became wider.

at the same time.

Walker had to stop after chasing him in front of the garbage mountain. Levi's breath was already covered by the strong sour smell of garbage.

It was obvious that he had lost track.

"captain!"

Walker looked back and saw that it was his two men and Girod, but something seemed to be missing.

"Where are the people?" Walker asked in a deep voice.

"Ship, captain, the man has escaped."

"Ran?!"

A few veins jumped, and the voice coming out of Walker's mouth full of fangs was hoarse and heavy.

Girod came over and patted Walker on the shoulder.

"Don't worry, Walker, it's probably just two little guys who happened to be together. And judging by the way that kid is dressed, he's probably from the slums. Send someone there to look for him first."

"Girod, you know, there is no room for mistakes in the plan." Walker slowly transformed back into human form.

"Don't worry, no one will believe the nonsense of these two brats. Even if they say it, what will happen?"

Walker raised his eyebrows and was noncommittal about Girod's words.

The masked kid who knocked him down with one punch was not as simple as Girod made it sound.But as Girod said, even if it is said out, what will happen?At that time, the only thing left in the mountain will be one tiger.

the other side.

Levi and Lorna had been twisting and turning in the rancid and dark tunnel for an unknown amount of time, and finally reached the end.The passage was dug by Lorna not long ago. At the end, there is a slum area nearby.

After climbing out of the cave, they both breathed a sigh of relief when they saw no one chasing them.

But then, Lorna suddenly rushed towards Levi, holding an iron pipe in both hands and wrapping it around his neck, and said in a deep voice:

"Don't move! Take off the mask!"

[Good vigilance. 】

Levi's lips curled up.The other party didn't recognize him, but he had seen him in the sniper scope several times.

[This guy’s voice is quite crisp, and well... he seems to have some chest muscles. 】

Under Lorna's gaze, Levi slowly raised his hand.

next second.

Elbow strike, shoulder throw!

puff!

"Wow!"

Lorna almost spit out the sour water.

She was pushed to the ground by Li Wei, and her left hand was tightly held behind her back.

"Damn it! Let me go!"

Lorna shouted, fluttering like a fish on the chopping board, trying to escape the clutches.

The strength in Levi's hand did not weaken at all. He did not speak, but quietly watched Lorna struggle.

gradually.

Everything went quiet...

"What do I call you?" Levi asked.

"Lorna..."

"Rona?"

Because her face was pressed to the ground, Lorna's words were unclear, and Levi heard it as "Lona".

Lorna rolled her eyes. She really didn't want to hide her gender on purpose this time.But since the other party didn't recognize it, there was no need for him to say anything more.

When the short-haired "boy" in front of him calmed down, Levi let go of his hand and said:

"Rona, calm down. This is all just a coincidence. I have no ill intentions towards you."

To be honest, everything is just a coincidence.Whether it was bumping into the cooperation between Girod and the pirates, or meeting Lorna who was also eavesdropping.Or maybe, the strong murderous intention that I felt!

Seeing and hearing color haqi can sense emotions.

The moment Girod took off his cloak, Levi immediately felt a fire burning in the bushes next to him.A strange black-purple flame with no temperature, as if burning in a person's soul.All he could feel was the bottomless hatred released from the depths of his soul.

You know, before this, Li Wei's knowledge and color domineering was not able to sense emotions.Firstly, it’s because I haven’t mastered my mental state yet, and secondly, there’s not enough emotional stimulation from the outside world.

The hatred released by Lorna was so strong that Levi was sure on the spot - this person wanted to kill Girod!

The endless kind.

"I won't do anything, just let go." Lorna said coldly.

Levi thought for a moment, let go of Lorna, took off his mask and said, "My name is Levi."

The face under the mask was clean and delicate, and Lorna was slightly shaken by the sight.

【So clean. 】

Her tone softened unconsciously.

"Since it's okay, let's separate."

She helped Levi escape just because he was Girod's target.Lorna would not let go of any opportunity to cause trouble for that beast.There might be a little kindness, but it's negligible.She twisted her aching arms twice, picked up the iron pipe that fell on the ground, and turned to leave.

"If I were you, I wouldn't go back to the ghetto. Even I can tell at a glance that you live in the ghetto, let alone those people."

Levi's long voice came from behind.

"Don't worry about it."

Lorna's tone became cold again.She didn't know why Levi reminded herself that there was never any kindness in the world without any reason.Coupled with the beating she had just received, she felt even more defensive.

However, Lorna obviously slowed down, and Levi was right.

Seeing that the persuasion seemed to be effective, Li Wei pursued the victory and said with a nonchalant expression:

"A mouse that crawls into the sewer when it sees a cat, what can it do? If you want to kill Girod, I have to say that your idea is crazy and naive."

"who are you?!"

Lorna was suddenly startled and turned her head with a wary expression.No one except Old Ford knew about her hatred for Girod.She never thought that Grandpa Ford would betray her, but why would the child in front of her, who was about her own age, know?

"It doesn't matter who I am," Levi spread his hands and took two steps back to show his goodwill. "What's important is that we are not enemies. If possible, I think we can become friends."

Lorna did not express her position immediately, seeming to be considering the credibility of Levi's words.

"Why should I trust you?"

Li Wei smiled and said:

"Actually, I have known about the conspiracy of Girod and the pirates for a long time, but I don't know the specific purpose of their plan, so I have been blocking it secretly.

Think about the poor pirate whose head exploded a month ago, that was just an appetizer.I never wanted the land where I was born and raised to turn into some ridiculous paradise for pirates. "

When Li Wei said this, his face didn't turn red and he didn't gasp. He just opened his mouth.At this moment, he seemed to have transformed into a master of demagoguery.

"You are not the only one who wants to kill Girod. That duplicitous beast in human skin not only has the glory of a noble, but also the praise of the people, and even has a bunch of subordinates who work hard for him! What do you have? You He can’t even defeat an ordinary pirate.”

Lorna was surprised at first. The moment Levi told him about the headshot pirate, she believed it in her heart.Then she fell silent again.That's right, he couldn't even defeat an ordinary pirate, so what could he use to fight against Girod.

Seemingly compromising, she looked up at Levi and said:

"how should I do?"

Lorna understood that Levi would not talk nonsense to her, and there must be some reason why he said this.

Seeing that the other party was persuaded, Li Wei was slightly happy.What he said was half true and half false, but in a sense it was actually true.

He has lived peacefully on this land for ten years, and every flower and tree has been kind to him. Levi never wants the cruel pirates to trample on this fertile land.

Moreover, Girod said personally that his father was also on his must-kill list.

If the country is Levi's bottom line, then his family is his enemy.Having touched the bottom line and causing disaster to the reverse scale, Levi had no reason to let the group go.

As for going through all the trouble to tell Lorna this, Levi wanted to bury a chess piece in her body.

A chess piece that can help him retreat from the whirlpool of conflict.

"Rona, we can make an alliance." Li Wei said solemnly.

"alliance?"

"Yes, it's cooperation," Levi slowly approached Lorna, "We all want to kill Girod, and we can help each other. To show my sincerity, I can give you a temporary place to go."

Attitude change often requires the three processes of obedience, recognition, and internalization.Levi didn't expect Lorna to trust him completely from the beginning, so he proposed cooperation.

silence······

Lorna: "Where?"

The corners of Levi's mouth raised slightly, appropriately showing happiness.

"follow me."
