When receiving special training, the instructor once told these students that as an intelligence officer, the worst thing to do is to be emotional.

During the mission, family affection, love, and even weak sympathy may kill you later.

Rossindi has never been a competent lurker. He is too soft-hearted. If it weren't for his special status, neither the instructors at the training base nor the decision-makers of Marineford would approve of him entering the Don Quixote family as a spy.

Don Quixote.Doflamingo is very difficult to deal with. He seems arrogant, but in fact he is calm and cautious, and he is very good at manipulating people's hearts. He rose in a short period of time until he became a troublesome dark force. Lost several excellent spies.

Before setting off, Rosindi was repeatedly warned that their positions were at odds with each other, and that even brothers might fight each other in the end. If he still had the slightest hesitation in his heart, it would be better not to go in the first place than to let the mission fail.

The Navy would not knowingly sacrifice a single soldier, to carry out a plan knowing it would end badly, that would be a stupid act of murder.

The person who said those words was Lieutenant General Crane of the General Staff, a comrade-in-arms of Rocinandi's adoptive father, and also the person in charge of the Navy's plan to encircle and suppress the Don Quixote family in recent years.

The night before he finished his training and left the navy, General Sengoku, Lieutenant General Crane, secretly went to the base and made a final confirmation with Rossinanti.

There are almost no spies who can truly retire. Rossindi remembers very clearly the way his adoptive father looked at him that night, so melancholy and sad.

They all know that once they leave, they may never see each other again.

Rosindi also remembered very clearly his answer at the time, saying that it was his destiny to stop his brother.

He has always kept his position in mind all these years until he met Luo.

Maybe it was the deepest part of his heart, there was an answer that even he didn't dare to delve into. Rosindi was reluctant to do anything to his brother, even if his father died at the hands of his brother, even... What Doflamingo wanted was always to destroy the world.

That person is a demon, and also... that person is a brother.

Regardless of position, regardless of justice, even if it is too bad to be cured, don Quixote.Doflamingo is also his older brother.

After growing up, Rosindi can more or less understand what happened to their family back then, Tianlong people, nobles, kings, slaves, power, freedom... It is not anyone who is wrong.

What is wrong is the corrupt system that enforces the division of human beings into classes.

Don Quixote.Rossindi can choose a target to hate at will, but Lieutenant Colonel Rossindi cannot.

……

When he was a child, Luo Xidi was ignorant and unable to save his family. When he grew up, he was still clumsy and could do nothing well. He wanted to insist on the justice in his heart, but in the end he gave up halfway.

He took Luo to escape, because Luo who witnessed the death of his family and his hometown seemed to be Doflamingo that year.

Rossindi couldn't turn back time, he could only act like a coward, holding a child who looked like his brother, stumbling away, as if this could make up for the sins he knew nothing about back then.

He wanted Luo to survive, and he wanted the child to stop holding grudges, except that the child was like an older brother who lost all of Luo overnight, and on the other hand was also like himself.

It's just that at that time he didn't understand anything except crying. When he knew how to hate, the ruins in his heart had been rebuilt by his adoptive father and the people around him.

Brother and Luo are turning hatred into fire of karma, trying to burn the world down.

Don Quixote.Lucky for Rosindi, Don Quixote.Rossindi was cowardly.

Don Quixote.Rossindi wanted to save his brother and Luo, but it was a pity that his open hand could only protect the little Trafalgar.Luo, I can't touch my elder brother who has gone far, far away.

He took Luo away, and now he took the fruit of the operation, whether it was the navy or his brother, no matter from which point of view, his behavior was considered a betrayal.

It's just that it doesn't matter now, the day he carried Luo to escape, he had already made a decision.

……

Most of the islands in the North Sea are covered with snow all the year round. Except for the semi-active volcanic island that suddenly appeared a thousand years ago and has a pleasant climate, the other islands are almost the same as Mignon Island, with a vast expanse of white sky and earth.

The never-ending falling snow absorbs all sounds, and the world is as quiet as a huge cemetery.

Maybe not, at this moment, Mignon Island is already his burial place.

Lying on your back in the snow, Don Quixote.Luo Xindi looked at the sky in a daze. The sky far away was hidden behind the light gray and thin clouds. It was misty blue, with frost and snow falling, like a sacrifice that kicked off in advance.

Limbs were extremely heavy as if they were imprisoned by sea tower stone shackles. The snow brought a bone-chilling cold and caused a rapid drop in body temperature. Most importantly, the few bullets/bullets embedded in his body a few minutes ago caused him to lose a lot of blood.

This time it will really end... Pulling the corner of his mouth with difficulty, even though the movement was subtle, it still affected the wound, causing severe pain to every inch of his body, but Rosindi was still smiling.

He knew that he was about to die, and even if the navy would arrive soon, it would be too late to save his life. The places where he was shot/gunned were fatal, and as expected, Doflamingo showed no mercy.

Rossindi knew it would end like this from the beginning, but he didn't have any regrets.

Whether he took Luo to escape for medical treatment, or risked contacting his adoptive father to obtain information about the fruit of the operation, even if his behavior was a double betrayal, saving Luo was enough to offset all regrets.

……

On the night when I met Qiantose Baisui again, I learned from her that the fruit of the operation was about to appear, and after that, Rosindi put all her attention on that matter.

Luo's lead disease, no hope can be found in Beihai, the fruit of the operation becomes the last straw.

It's just that the devil fruit's whereabouts have been unknown for decades, and countless forces are chasing its whereabouts, whether on the surface or secretly.

Rosindi knew that he was not capable enough to fight against countless forces, so he contacted the general of the Warring States Period after racking his brains but could not get any definite information.

Maybe the adoptive father knew something or maybe he didn't know anything. In the end, Rosindi got the same information from both his adoptive father and his brother.

The navy prepares a lot of money, trying to buy the fruit of the operation held by the thief group belonging to Dies Barrerus; Don Quixote.Doflamingo is going to intervene during the transaction between the two parties and directly take away the devil fruit.

In addition, the adoptive father also told Rossindi that the navy is about to ambush the Don Quixote pirates and kill them all.

Whether it was the navy's encirclement or the plan of the Don Quixote family, for Rossinanti, it was an excellent opportunity for both sides to start operations at the same time.

So he brought Luo to Mignon Island to get the fruit of the operation before everything started.

In addition to mistakenly wrestling to startle the pirates and hurt himself, another time he tricked Luo into asking for help from the navy, but unfortunately attracted the enemies of the Don Quixote family lurking inside the navy, and finally he lay here waiting to die, The action is considered smooth.

Before Doflamingo arrived, he had already hidden Luo in the wooden box behind him, and used his ability to silence all sounds. He was about to die, but Luo, who ate the fruit of the operation, survived.

Rossindi has been hesitating, he can't really do anything to his brother, let alone betray the navy's position, but luckily he was able to save Luo.

During the half-year journey of seeking medical treatment, before reaching the end, he met Qiantose Baisui again, and Luo Xindi has no regrets.

Trade his life for Trafalgar.Luo a future without shadow, such an exchange is very cost-effective.

The instructor said back then that intelligence personnel don't need feelings, all they need is to think about how to complete the task, or... at what price in exchange for what they need.

So, Trafalgar.In Luo's future, use Don Quixote.Rossindi's life in exchange.

……

Rosindi opened his dry eyes and smiled calmly and genuinely.

Maybe he will die in a few minutes, but he will smile until he dies, because after his death his ability will be released, and Luo will see his dead body. In order to make him always smile in the child's memory, he decides to die with a smile on his face.

The five senses gradually became confused, the body began to become light and light, and everything reflected in the eyes became darker and darker. Rosinindi exhaled lightly, and when the last ray of light disappeared, a child's immature cry came from the silent world.

"Mr. Corazon—"

It was the child hidden in the wooden box that ran out, and a tearful face appeared in Rosindi's blurred vision, "Mr. Corazon, don't die—"

"I'll find someone to save you! Don't die!"

"That monster! That's right! That monster will surely save you. Where is she? Mr. Corazon—"

The body was shaken in vain, and in the trance of consciousness, Rosindi followed Luo's cry and thought of thousands of years old.

That monster... Luo's 'that monster' is thousands of years old.

After meeting that night, she has been traveling with them.

She turned into a black bird during the day, and only returned to her human form in the dead of night, but she still refused to speak. For some reason, she quietly stood by them, never leaving or leaving, and also remained silent, as if observing something.

Maybe it's because she's too lonely to be rejected by the crowd, but Luo likes her bird form very much, and always wants to play with her, even her favorite black and white spotted velvet hat is not angry at being used as a place to stay.

It wasn't until Luo Xindi accidentally leaked the word that Luo knew that the little pompom bird was actually the woman they met at the beach that night, and Luo later thought it was a woman in a dream.

It may be because of being concealed that he was angry. After that, Luo's attitude was very bad. He refused to lend her the hat to rest, and always drove her away when he saw it.

Children have strange tempers and are always clinging to a place that adults think is insignificant. They are not angry at all, and still follow them not far or near.

She always treats children with great love, even a little doting, but Luo doesn't like it. When she goes out to sea, she no longer rests on Luo's hat, but always flies over the boat and follows quietly.

Luo Xindi once tried to comfort Luo, but it was ineffective. Later, he saw that Qiantui and Baisui had been following him, so he didn't insist. He thought that after a while, the child's anger would disappear and he would get better.

As a result, one day, she suddenly left without saying goodbye.

……

Thousands of years disappeared before Rossindi hesitated whether to confirm the news with the navy and his brother, without warning, just like 15 years ago, after she woke up one morning, he couldn't find her anywhere.

Although Luo didn't say anything, he always subconsciously stared at the flying seabirds for the rest of the journey.

Luo Xindi knew that the child had regretted it, but she was stubborn and unwilling to admit it.

It's a pity that it is imminent to seize the fruit of the operation, and there is no time to find Qiantui Baisui for the time being. When Luo mistook a certain bird again, Luo Xindi comforted the child who was about to cry.

Because of the blockade of abilities, he couldn't tell exactly the deeds of Qiantui Baisui, so he could only vaguely tell Luo that his sister is a very magical guy, um~ it can be regarded as a kind of "monster" that Luo said, so she It's just leaving, not dying.

Thousands of years old, the navy's official information is blank, and there are not many clues that Rossindi got in the dark world, but there is one very interesting one.

I don't know where the news came from. The intelligence said that Qiantui Baisui is not a human being, has an unknown race, and has strong abilities.

Of course, the spread of these news is not wide, and it is only recorded in some remote files as a representative of a person with special abilities.

And...the final conclusion of those files is: missing/dead.

Luo probably believed his words, so he decided that a thousand years old is omnipotent, and can even save people who are about to enter eternal sleep.

……

The crying in his ear became faint, Rosindi gradually lost his hearing, and the fruit of silence obviously lost its effect, but he began to truly enter the eternal dead silence.

Consciousness slowly separated from his body, and he felt a door open in the void ahead of him.

It was an incomparably huge door. After it was opened... Rossinandi stepped into it slowly, submerged in the boundless mist involuntarily.

The suspended consciousness floats towards the unknown front, always... always...

Until... at the end of the countless layers of fog and deep locks, the gorgeous sunlight hits our faces.

Warm and gentle light shines through the dense treetops, and the light spots cast on the ground flicker with the wind. In the quiet courtyard, under the comfortable shade of the trees, there is a slender figure sitting on the gold-woven carpet.

She has the same hair color as Chaoyang, with light blonde curly hair hanging down her waist... Her back is the image of his mother that he can't bear to forget even in death.

With a sob, Rosindi stumbled and ran over.

Mother----

He's home~

He can finally stop worrying. When he fell down, no one would pick him up, so he hid in his arms and cried~ After a long journey, he finally returned to the home where his parents were still alive before everything happened.

Mom——seeing you, I am not afraid of anything~ Death is so peaceful and beautiful.

……

The journey to his mother was long and short for Rosindi.

Vaguely, the time of losing his loved ones was stripped from his consciousness year after year, and he stumbled and ran in the courtyard, his vision changed little by little.

When he finally threw himself into the arms of his mother who had turned back, Rosindi's time had flown back to his childhood, and he buried his face in his arms that smelled of flowers and honey, and he cried earth-shatteringly like when he was a child.

Mommy mommy--

With short fingers clenched tightly on the hem of the clothes, which was softer than clouds, his nose was filled with a warm smell like the sun. Rosinindi closed his eyes, indulging in a dream that only appeared in the deepest night.

He has always dreamed that one day he could turn back time and go back to the time before everything never happened.

He knows that human beings can't do it, if survival is suffering, if peace is death...

So please let me sleep forever.

In a trance, the song sung by his mother rang in his ears. It was the tune that he slept in the crib when he was young, and the mother who accompanied him always sang to him softly.

The last time she heard it was before she died, and since then there have been no beautiful ballads in Rosindi's world.

……

baby... my baby...

The beautiful and gentle mother held his face and kissed his brow tenderly.

Rosindi looked happily at the beautiful woman whose face had been blurred for many years, and received a gentle voice with a consciousness immersed in great joy.

live my baby... be brave...

……

He tried his best to open his eyes wide, and there was a soft and beautiful line in his chaotic field of vision. His body seemed to be suspended in the air, wrapped in boundless warmth.

Slowly tightening his fingers, Rossindi felt as if he was holding something.

Gradually he began to perceive cold and heat, two extreme opposite perceptions, like being roasted on a raging fire, like sinking into the depths of a thousand-year-old ice, the pain was unbearable.

He was moving, and his drowsy mind barely received this cognition.

I don't know how long it took, the warmth covering his face was slightly removed, and a beautiful face was reflected in his dazed vision.

"Sister..." Rosindi called out in a trance, and she didn't know if her voice would be heard by her, "Hundred years old...sister——"

He was very uncomfortable, but he didn't know exactly where he was uncomfortable. He lost control of his body, and even the strength to speak was very hard to lift up, "Centenarian sister..." Mom...

"I just left for a while, why did you almost die, you silly child?" She put her face on his forehead, and her voice was as gentle as a mother's, "So it was you who asked me for help that night~"

"Not Trafalgar, but you..."

"Has your heart never grown?"

She seemed to sigh, and tightened her arms to hold him closer, "Okay, don't be afraid, sleep for a while now."

Rossindi looked around in a daze, but only saw the endless chaotic dark gray, and then found that he had become very small, so small that he could be held in the arms of a thousand years old.

She hugged him and walked in the hallucination-like place at a leisurely pace, and said as she walked forward, "I will take you out of the dream, and you will definitely survive."
