Pirate Archon
Chapter 3, Despicable Me
As someone who has struggled in the quagmire, ten-year-old Douglas is even more scheming than the average adult because of the souls of two lifetimes.
He refused to save the girl because of the survival of himself and the organization. In turn, this was the only reason for him to change his mind.
In this undulating sea, having power is always an enviable thing.
Strong strength means power and money, and it also means that you will live longer than the average person.
For this group of orphans who are struggling to provide basic food and clothing, the only chance to change their living space overnight is Devil Fruit.
Admittedly, this is not something that can be purchased with the surplus from selling fish, but even in relatively calm seas, there are still some lucky people who accidentally pick up drifting objects on the sea.
By taking this strange fruit, although they will be cursed by the sea throughout their lives, the abilities gained at this price can often exceed the limits of the human body.
Douglas: "Initial suspicion is that the little girl you rescued is a Devil Fruit user with some special talents. If we can let her join our organization, many things will be much easier in the future."
Simon: "So it's her injury."
Douglas: "We are not doctors. We can only depend on God's will and her own will to survive." The young man slowed down his tone and continued: "It's getting late. You go back to the shelter first and tell everyone what's going on this month." The business has been settled, everyone should hurry up and prepare the goods. I will sort out the accounts and go back in a while."
Simon: "Douglas, can I stay here and take care of her today?" The boy touched his head, "She is alone in case she wakes up in the middle of the night."
Douglas: "Okay, I'll stay here until dinner, and then you'll take over."
Simon: "Okay"
Although he was hungry, Simon was smiling particularly happily at this moment. Helping others is the basis of happiness. This truth did not work for Douglas at all, but it was an unchanging truth for this boy with an angelic heart.
After seeing Simon leave from the hidden window, Douglas returned to the second floor again and calmly sat down next to the little girl's bed again.
Douglas: "I know you're awake, but in order to preserve your strength and avoid making Simon suspicious, please continue to pretend to be asleep."
Upon hearing the boy's words, the girl's closed eyelids trembled, and her little hands hanging by her sides clenched subconsciously.
Douglas: "Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to blame you. If you want to survive in this world, this is not too clever. Now I ask, you answer. What is your name?"
The girl's whole body was tense, obviously in a state of extreme tension. Her lips opened and closed slightly, but her weak body made it impossible for the boy to hear what she said.
So, Douglas pressed the other's wrists with both hands and carefully turned his ears to the girl's mouth.
Even though she was seriously injured, Douglas still treated her as a capable person and he had to minimize the risk.
Girl: "Lily."
Douglas: "Full name."
Lily: "Carlisle Lily."
Douglas: "I see."
The young man nodded, and then continued to ask a few irrelevant questions to learn about Miss Lily's background.He acted calmly and seriously throughout the whole process, without the slightest feeling of being on an errand.
But in fact, while he obtained the girl's real name, he didn't take the subsequent information to heart at all.
Instead, in those ice-blue pupils, a flow of information that ordinary people could not detect was poured into Douglas through the visual center.

Name: Carlisle Lilly
Age: 9 years old
Birthplace: Xihai, Shadi Port
Special ability: paper fruit
Life: Born in 1490 in the Haiyuan calendar, he was abandoned in the port of Shadi Port and adopted by homeless people in the same year;
In the year 1494 of the Haiyuan calendar, it was attacked by pirates and sold to the Pink String Bar at a low price.
In the year 1499 of the Haiyuan calendar, he mistakenly ate the paper fruit used by the Fish Bone Pirates to trade. After falling into the sea, he luckily drifted to the main island of Crescent Island and was rescued by the "Young Army" homeless children's shelter.
Don't get me wrong, although Douglas has the ability to obtain information by knowing the opponent's real name, this talent does not come from Devil Fruit.
If you really want to think about it, this can only be regarded as the reincarnation of his soul, which caused some "side effects" after traveling to the pirate world.
Although this ability is not as simple and crude to use as the golden fingers of most predecessors, Douglas is still grateful for it. In those most difficult years, this ability gave him a lot of help.
For example, right now, he could get the most accurate first-hand information about Carlisle Lily's backstory without any effort.
The boy let go of his hand and sat up straight again.
Douglas: "Okay, I believe your words for the time being. As long as you don't leave this safe house, I can guarantee your safety and daily needs, but accordingly, you also need to pay a price for it."
Douglas did not give Lily, who was still ill, any more time to think, and then said: "From now on, you are a member of our organization. From now on, all actions must be based on the interests of the organization. I will do so within a certain extent." Restrict your personal freedom, but it is definitely more relaxed than previous employers you have encountered."
Having said this, the boy put his right hand on Lily's forehead.
Her forehead was a little hot, but this only highlighted that the temperature in Douglas's palm was different from that of Simon, who had taken good care of her before. Even with her eyes closed, the girl knew very well that this was definitely a cold and rigid person who did what he said. .
There is a thin blade hidden in his palm
Douglas: "The most important point is that once I learn of any betrayal intentions or actions on your part, I will catch you at all costs, peel off your skin as a lampshade, gouge out your eyes to make specimens, and then send Someone will take care of your daily life and will never let you die until the last drop of your blood."
The young man's voice was calm throughout, but this calmness made people couldn't help but feel creepy.
Through the blade, Douglas could feel Lily's young body trembling, so he finally retracted his palm and the blade together.
Douglas: "But until that day comes, I will treat you as family, just like Simon. So don't worry, I won't let you die alone in the hospital bed."
After saying the last sentence, the boy turned around and went down to the second floor without talking much.
Of course, this kind of intimidation-like behavior is not out of some bad taste and boring pastime. In fact, under the condition that the organizational management system is not very sound, he can only use this method of sweet dates and big sticks to stabilize Lily as much as possible. The thoughts of key figures in the future.
It's not that he doesn't want to believe in the good side of human nature, but for an orphan like Lily, who has lived at the bottom of society where betrayal and lies are intertwined, Douglas is more inclined to use bloody contrasts to deepen the weight of the so-called "life-saving grace".
Without the cruel truth he deliberately mentioned, who could guarantee that the little girl would always maintain this feeling of gratitude?
On the other hand, it is precisely in the context of Douglas that Simon's kindness and kindness will be more deeply rooted in people's hearts.
He refused to save the girl because of the survival of himself and the organization. In turn, this was the only reason for him to change his mind.
