One Piece: The Magician

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;In a lounge in the Tree of Omniscientity, an old man and a young man were having a secret conversation. ,

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“Traveling through time and space, hahaha, I didn’t expect such an incredible thing to happen.”

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Dr. Croba took a sip of tea, and his wise old eyes radiated a moving light: "This world is really amazing."

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Sherlock nodded in agreement: "Yes, every time I know more things, I find that there are more things I don't know."

"That's why people need to record knowledge in books and preserve it." Dr. Croba stroked his beard with a smile, and then spread his hands: "This is it. The purpose of this library’s existence.”

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"It is the wealth of all mankind"

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Hearing this, Sherlock thought about what would happen to the Omniscient Tree in the future. He opened his mouth but stopped talking.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Dr. Crobb seemed to realize what he wanted. He showed a kind smile to Sherlock and said with a hint:

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“History cannot be changed easily.”

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Perhaps, the most authoritative doctor of history in the world and the scholars who have been conducting research day and night are very clear about what they will face next.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"Since history cannot be changed, then why do you still risk your lives to conduct research?" Sherlock pushed up his glasses slightly, with a puzzled look on his face: "The blank 100 years , is it really that important?”

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“Hahaha, what you said is exactly the same as what your grandfather said back then.”

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;The old man with the petal hairstyle grinned: "So although Fresnel has the knowledge required by a doctor of archeology, he does not have the spirit of pursuing the truth that an archaeologist should have. "

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“For an archaeologist, is there anything more meaningful than studying unknown history?”

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;At this point, Dr. Croba’s wrinkled old face showed a look of enthusiasm: “Knowledge is history.”

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"And history. Because it belongs to all mankind."

""Sherlock suddenly realized that the Taishan Beidou in the archeology field in front of him was actually very similar to a certain idiot wearing a straw hat, with the same stubbornness and the same great dream.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Similarly, even ten cows can’t pull back what a person like this decides.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;He breathed a long sigh of relief.Dr. Croba seemed to have remembered something. He suddenly sat up from his chair and walked towards a bookcase.

"Get up. When Fresnel left O'Hara, he also left what he was studying and asked me to destroy it, but I did not do so."

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Dr. Croba pulled out a switch from the bookshelf, and then heard the sound of gears turning, and a secret door was revealed on the bookshelf.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"No matter what. This is also the fruit of his hard work." Then, Dr. Croba took out a dark leather suitcase from the secret door. Just looking at the appearance of the suitcase, it seemed that It has been stored here for some years.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"After all, this is your grandfather's thing. Now it is handed over to you. It can be regarded as returning to the original owner. I hope you won't use it in the future."

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Sherlock took the black suitcase and did not open it immediately.Asked: "What on earth is here? What was my grandfather studying at the time?"

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"You will know after you see it for yourself."

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;What? Sherlock, who was so mysterious, glanced suspiciously at the old gentleman with the weird hairstyle.Then he opened the box gently.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;The contents inside are very simple: several notebooks filled with text and protected with special techniques, a stack of old photos that are somewhat yellowed, and two books with black covers.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;There are two large gilded characters printed on the covers of these two black books: one is f and the other is j.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;How come these two black books are similar to what I saw in the Albana Palace Library? Sherlock raised his eyebrows and opened them.Sure enough, they were all not human words at all, and the translation looked like garbled ancient characters.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;My grandfather was actually researching this kind of weird stuff. So what did he come up with? With this question, Sherlock opened the research notes left by his grandfather, and roughly Browsed a few times.then.His expression suddenly changed, and his pupils instantly shrank to the size of needle tips.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;This, this is

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;On the other side, Robin was holding a book and reading quietly.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;But her attention at this time was not at all on the book.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;It’s so slow, Sherlock, what on earth is Dr. Croba going to talk to him about? Closing the book, Loli sighed faintly, and her eyes gradually lost focus.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Time flows to the street filled with muskets.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“This is not a sorcery at all, it’s just an ability.” Sherlock didn’t even look at the ignorant townspeople around him who were scared to death. He waved his right hand lightly, and the mirror image of the musket floating in the air was Slowly dissipated.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;He walked up to Robin, squatted down, and placed himself at the same height as Loli:

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; "So, there is no need for you to feel inferior because of your ability. Instead, you should be proud. After all, being able to eat a Devil Fruit is a very lucky thing."

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"That taste is a bit "unsatisfactory."" Sherlock really experienced that hellish smell again.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Well, although he has experienced it several times through Insomona in Alabasta before.

"Sherlock, why are you doing this?" Robin's eyes were a little red: "If you do this, everyone here will hate you."

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“What’s the point of this? It doesn’t matter to me whether people here hate me or not.”

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Hearing this question, Sherlock narrowed his eyes and showed a rare bright smile.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“But aren’t we already friends? And for those who bully my friends, I naturally want to teach them a lesson.”

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Friends

&bp;∓ The grievances of these years are released.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Although she is very sensible and smart, in essence, Robin is just a seven-year-old girl at this time.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;""Sherlock had nothing to say. He held Robin in his arms and patted her back gently.The feeling was exactly the same as when Robin held him and comforted him before.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Sometimes, a warm hug is far better than ten thousand words of comfort.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Remembering that she had lost her temper and cried in Sherlock's arms, Robin's expression was slightly embarrassed. She had indeed lost her temper at that time.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;But we are both Devil Fruits, so why is Sherlock’s ability so cool? He can actually conjure so many guns, and my ability is only suitable for doing housework.

&bp;∓

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;But no matter what, Sherlock and I are the same on this point.Robin smiled sweetly, as if she felt very happy to have the same thing as Sherlock.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;At this time.

"What are you thinking about? You are so happy." Following a familiar Qingyue male voice, Sherlock's slender figure suddenly appeared behind Robin, shocking the body of a loli who was in a daze. A sudden shudder.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"Huh~~ I'm scared to death, Sherlock, why are you so invisible?" Robin glanced at the magician angrily, and Robin patted his washboard-like chest and felt comfortable. Take a breath.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Following Robin's movements, Sherlock's gaze moved downwards, and an inexplicable light shone in a pair of deep black eyes under the lenses.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;The "gap" is really a bit big. After all, more than 20 years have passed. Time flies and the world has changed. Well, Sherlock's focus is indeed very strange sometimes.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;I didn’t notice at all what the other person was thinking, what was going on.We actually chatted for so long. "

"Nothing, I have a relative who is an old acquaintance of Dr. Crowbar. We just chatted for a while." Sherlock replied with an unchanging expression, and then he turned to look at the people nearby. wall clock.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“Yeah, it’s already this time. It’s been a long time since lunch. Robin, have you eaten yet? Are you hungry now?”

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;The answer to Sherlock was a slight grunt. Although it was very slight, it was still very obvious in the quiet library.

"Okay, I understand." Sherlock pushed up his glasses calmly.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Teng~~Robin's face turned red instantly, and the cry in her stomach came at the right time.To be continued.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;p:&bp;&bp;Concerning Grandpa Sherlock’s research, let me give some tips to book friends.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;1. It is the basis for Sherlock to become stronger in the future.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;2. There are hints in the previous article.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;3. It is related to a certain theatrical version. At the same time, after passing that theatrical version, Sherlock's strength will qualitatively improve.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;By ​​the way, the design I designed is very fantasy, and the functions of ordinary mirrors are almost not reflected.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;So I won’t consider moves like a magnifying glass that collects sunlight and roasts people.
