In an instant, she seemed to be submerged in water, and she seemed to be wrapped in a transparent invisible thing. The fingers of a thousand years old fell down, and the voice about her was isolated from the world.

At night, the streets of the town are noisy and crowded, the bustling crowd makes laughter, the drums of the celebration, everything remains the same, but the voices of thousands of years are removed.

Or should I say, she precisely screened/blocked a small area around her.

He and the ghost spider looked at each other, and then Huang Yuan turned his gaze away, and the light in his eyes gradually dimmed.

Even though he knew Chitose Baisui's extraordinary abilities, losing her voice in an instant still caused the yellow monkey Polusalino to get a little angry, and he knew that this was a sign of her disbelief.

Even though... these days and nights he and her have gotten along well, she still doesn't give him full trust. She will be too lazy to resist his intimacy, and will respond helplessly, but she still maintains a certain degree of vigilance in the end.

He knew, and he pretended not to notice.

Huang Yuan knew that one part of a thousand-year-old temperament is gentle and compassionate without expecting anything in return, but another part is unbelievably cold and ruthless.

He is willing to wait. There is no other way in this life but to wait. If it is not a thousand years old, Polusalino the oracle has all kinds of means to make others submit.

Whether it's an opponent or something else.

What you want is always available, and what you want to achieve is never missed. Admiral Polusalino, the admiral of the navy, has never been in vain.

But she is a thousand years old, facing her, he has nothing to do except let her get whatever she wants.

……

He stood quietly on the spot, watching her smile gently and turned back to the little freckles, with his back to them, as if talking to the young pirate.

Because of the angle, Kizuru didn't know what a thousand-year-old man looked like at this moment, but the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates showed an extremely surprised expression.

Fire Fist Portgas D. Ace's eyes widened, his expression fell into a nightmare, staring at Qiansui Baisui, sharp frenzy and pain emerged from his bright black eyes.

……

"What do you think that kid heard?" Ghost Spider said softly, his tone was interrogative, but he didn't sound very concerned, "It looks like hearing the end of the world~"

"Yeah~ who knows~" Yellow Ape narrowed his eyes, "The flower of life is really a great gift." He barely heard a snort, and after thinking about it, he tilted his head slightly and asked in a low voice, "Lizhen owes Bai Is the beard human?"

"There is no information about this at the moment." The ghost spider also frowned, but the answer was very positive, "There is a special file for the whereabouts of the four emperors, and no one has been close to this place during the Fragment Island Festival in previous years."

If it's not due to favors... then why?In the blink of an eye, Huang Yuan's thoughts raced for a moment, and finally he sighed in puzzlement, "Yeah~ that's really strange~"

The reason, if not for Edward Whitebeard.Newgate, then why?You know, the gift that Huoquan received just now is something that many people are chasing after.

Chitose said it was the 'flower of life', she didn't have to lie.

After thinking about it for a while, Huang Yuan finally shrugged his shoulders and narrowed his eyes slightly to hide some meaning, "It seems that the rumors are true, and there are indeed people who bought time to extend their lives from Li Town."

"I just don't know what price this Portkas will pay."

"Perhaps not? After all, he is a handsome young man, so maybe the monster will fall in love with him at first sight and give him flowers." The ghost spider snorted, with a bit of wicked playfulness, "Don't be jealous~"

Hearing this, Huang Yuan's face darkened imperceptibly, he cast a glance at his old friend who never spoke, paused, and his tone became ghostly, "I will vent my anger when I'm jealous~"

"For example, you won't be able to touch the ball in the future." Out of the corner of his eye, he found that the ghost spider lowered his face, and the yellow ape raised the corner of his mouth, smiling maliciously, "Or tell the Marshal of the Warring States that you have feelings for his adopted son. Special favor."

"Hey! Don't talk nonsense, Polusalino!" Ghost Spider's eyes widened suddenly, his expression extremely horrified, "I'm going to die! Marshal Warring States must have used his ability to beat me to death!"

"Yeah~ Don't you like little Rossi?" Huang Yuan raised his wrist in a leisurely manner, held the ball of hair on his fingertips to the ghost spider's eyes, and slowly shook it, "I heard you call him 'Little Pumpkin' Oh~"

Huang Yuan's fingertips were hanging from the ball. Originally, he scooped up the bright yellow hairball that almost made the ghost spider on his head, to avoid the tragedy. neck skin.

At this time, a Huabuliuqiuqiu and a bright yellow hair ball, as expected by the yellow monkey, made the ghost spider look straight at the eyes.

The ghost spider, whose attention was shifted in an instant, stretched out his hand to protect the suspended ball in a panic, obviously forgetting the previous worries, Huang Yuan thought, for his friend, compared to his beloved fluffy, it is more important to be caught The threat of the Warring States Marshal's big Buddha palm flattening is really nothing.

……

"Little Pumpkin?" A thousand-year-old voice suddenly came, "Don't take your own aesthetics and give other people's sons weird names, Lieutenant General Ghost Spider."

As soon as he let go of his fingertips, the dropped ball was immediately picked up by the ghost spider, and he received a slightly complaining stare from his old friend. Afterwards, the yellow ape Polusalino quickly changed his expression and smiled nonchalantly, "The conversation ended gone?"

Chitose Baisui nodded, looking very calm.

Taking a closer look at the person who walked up to her, and making sure she was okay, Huang Yuan took the time to look at the person on the other side of the conversation.

A few meters away, Fire Fist Portgas D. Ace stood there, as if he hadn't recovered yet, the young pirate looked extremely complicated, his complexion was pale, and his eyes seemed distracted.

With a glance, Huang Yuan quickly retracted his gaze, and then reached out to embrace the unhappy man, with the corners of his mouth curled up, "Have you bullied him, Bai Sui?"

She was planning to take back two fur balls from the ghost spider, but she didn't want the ghost spider holding the fur balls to avoid it with a ferocious face, so the two faced each other in a stalemate.

Gathering his arms to let her lean into his arms, Huang Yuan bent down, bit her earlobe lightly and hard, and changed the subject vaguely, "It's time for Bai Sui to explain, what about the story?"

She hissed softly, raised her hand and slammed into his waist and abdomen hard, squinted her eyes, showing a few traces of viciousness, "Don't force me to beat you up in public, General Huang Yuan."

She lowered her voice to threaten, but in Huang Yuan's ears, he happily converted it into flirting between the two of them, and then gritted his teeth before reluctantly letting go.

He narrowed his eyes with a smile, and didn't let go, even though her face was gloomy and the strength of her elbow continued to increase.

……

After a while, Chitose compromised again, "Tell a story."

"Yeah~ Let's listen carefully~" Holding the person in his arms, the yellow ape replied in a calm voice, his eyes were drooping, and his eyes were full of happiness, "The part that Bai Sui doesn't want to say can be omitted."

Taking advantage of her not being able to see his expression, Kizaru raised his eyes and quickly looked around, looking at the eyes of the ghost spider and the young pirate, with restraint and warning respectively.

To stop the ghost spider from getting to the bottom of it, as a vice admiral, the ghost spider must ask questions, and Huang Yuan doesn't want to force her to say things that Qiantose Baisui is unwilling to say.

Then warned Portgas D. Ace, accepted the monster's flower, and had another conversation with Chitose. At this moment, the young pirate walked near her, the corners of his mouth trembling, as if he had something to say.

Cut off the voice before the conversation. Thousands of years would definitely not want the third person to know the content, and Huang Yuan is not interested for the time being. To prevent the young man from being too shocked and slipping his words, he naturally had to warn the other party first.

He is very clear about the behavior of this person in his arms. If she is too tight or disagrees with her, she will never care about anything.

She likes to show her temper, she is sometimes unreasonable, but she is a thousand years old, no matter how unreasonable, it is only natural for Huang Yuan to protect her arrogance.

……

Chitose was silent for a long time, as if he didn't know where to start, Huang Yuan knew her temperament, so he smiled and said, "The flower of life, we are very interested in seeing it with our own eyes~"

Hearing his reminder, she raised her face and looked into his eyes quietly, her smile was serene and soft, her pupils were slightly foggy, or a little...apologetic.

"The nunnery master, Ming Huini." Her eyes quickly moved away from him, her body relaxed, and she leaned closer to him. For some reason, it seemed that the next story made her feel cold.

"Thousands of different species gather in Li Town of Shard Island, and most of them fell into a deep sleep except for the full moon festival in July and August."

"The Anzhu is one of the great monsters who have awakened."

Huang Yuan thought for a while about the friendly woman from beginning to end, but he couldn't connect the other party with the narration of Qiansui Baisui.

Big monster?Even though it's different, that one looks...

"Hundred ghosts walk at night." Qiantui Baisui's words are somewhat inexplicable, "The nunnery master has seeds that absorb human life and turn them into flowers. Those flowers are as white as moonlight, and each flower represents a year of human life."

"It's just a story about a monster falling in love with a human."

……

Monsters and humans meet in a flower field. Across the tide of flowers, monsters quietly look at humans, and fall in love unconsciously. Unfortunately, they are afraid of love itself, so monsters remain silent.

In the end, after missing each other's love, human beings died unexpectedly, and monsters gave flower seeds.

As long as the eight thousand flowers are collected, salvation and happiness will come again.

Human life is incomparably precious, picking the flowers of longevity, the nunnery master admits that he has sinned so much that he has been practicing, wandering around the world doing good deeds with pain and great awe all the time.

……

Her story is very short, but it makes people wonder how to feel after savoring it carefully.

After she fell silent again, Huang Yuan raised his eyebrows imperceptibly, his eyes shifted a little, and fell on the faces of the other two people present, and when he took a closer look, his eyes jumped slightly.

The ghost spider and the young pirate also frowned, not only did they disapprove, but there were also traces of sorrow between their brows.

After a long time, the ghost spider looked at Qiantui Baisui, and said in a hoarse voice, "Since we need to collect eight thousand flowers, why did that monster give them away?"

While speaking, Ghost Spider's sharp eyes stopped on Fire Fist Portkas, "Someone once traded time to prolong their lifespan from the town monster, is that Minghuini?"

"Why eight thousand flowers?" The young pirate said in a low voice, "What does the nunnery master want to do?"

"One flower gives human beings a year of life, and eight thousand flowers is the most pious sacrifice for death." The voice of a thousand and a hundred years is like a sigh, "To pay homage to death, in exchange for the resurrection of the dead."

The yellow ape and the ghost spider looked at each other, and they both looked away instantly. The yellow ape turned to himself with the person in his arms, "She wants to bring her lover back to life? Then why..."

"The truth is quite the opposite." She raised her face up, with a sad smile, "Under the sea of ​​flowers, the nunnery master's bones are buried. She is the human being that the monster fell in love with in the story."

……

Her answer was unexpected, causing everyone present to be silent for a while.

After a long time, Huang Yuan raised his hand slightly, his fingertips gently slid over the warm moisture overflowing from the corner of her eyes, frowned, and said, "Bai Sui said that the practice of the nunnery refers to her giving the hope of resurrection to others."

"I've always liked this story." She smiled softly, her rain-drenched eyes revealed a hint of envy, "It's so sweet and terrifying, it's really enviable~"

Huang Yuan was stunned for a moment, and for some reason, her heart suddenly felt intense pain. Her words seemed familiar... Was her envy because she still couldn't fall in love with any man until now?

As long as she doesn't see the black-armed Zefa, there will be no man she loves in this world.

I'm so jealous~ Mr. Zefa.

Slowly leaning down, he eroded her lips with his breath, "Bai Sui envies that monster, or that human?"

Closing his eyes, he kissed her lips lightly, and said in a hoarse voice, "I hope that I am that human being." Whether it is the serious crime of taking life, or the pain and self-blame all the time, how can I not let you bear it? Woolen cloth?

If you can't fall in love, if it makes you painful, if there is no teacher Zefa...

Then it's okay to continue to calm down, it's okay to wait like this for the rest of my life, as long as...you are by my side.

……

The kiss is tasted.

The yellow monkey straightened up quickly, and then saw the ghost spider's face contorted, while the other young pirate blushed, looking very embarrassed.

Unrelentingly, he cast a malicious look in the past, and Kizaru Polusalino sneered, "Yeah, don't you actually want to leave with the cheek? The captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates."

"The Fragment Island Festival is coming to an end~"

The moon in the sky has begun to shift, and the noisy and lively night scene not far away has begun to blur. The night of the most moonlight in August is about to pass.

"The pirates who landed in the near future have left one after another a few days ago."

Seeing the menacing look in the young pirate's eyes, Kizuru thought for a moment, and finally just issued the order to evict the guest, "Before I change my mind, take your companion and get out~"

……

Yellow Ape's provocative words darkened Fire Fist Portgas' eyes.

The young pirate who had gained fame in recent years turned cold, with a sharp look on his brows, his lips moved as if wanting to fight back, the next moment his eyes caught a glimpse of a thousand years old, and he fell silent again.

The corners of his mouth were tightened, and the fire fist seemed to be trying his best to endure. After a long time, he bowed slightly, but he didn't speak. After saluting, he straightened up, turned around suddenly and strode away.

After the person walked a certain distance, Qiantui Baisui called him, "Please don't disappoint the goodwill of the nunnery, please live no matter what, Portgas D. Ace."

The street corner lights in the town cast shadows on the ground, and the dividing line happened to be at the feet of the young pirate. He paused slightly when he heard the sound, and looked back slightly. His whole body was divided into two by light and darkness, half in the light and half in the dark.

"Of course!" The young man's voice was clear, bright and full of vitality.

Quickly glanced at Qiansui Baisui, Huang Yuan frowned tightly, and only now did he realize that no matter what the reason is, the Lizhen demon did this for...

Portgas D. Ace, was supposed to be someone who was about to die...?

……

Tsk-tsk, Huang Yuan restrained his mind, dispelled his subconscious vigilance and scheme against White Beard, one of the Four Emperors, thought for a while, and laughed, "Hundred years old, is Luo Xindi a human being?"

"Don Quixote. Rossindi is a human being." He looked into her eyes, and pointed out calmly and cruelly, "The flower that Qiuqiu stole from him disappeared, but you can touch it."

"The head of the 800 million gods, you have a very high status in the town at the age of [-]. The monsters respect you, but you salute the nunnery master, because those flowers extend the life of Luo Xindi."

"Hundred years old, where are the entities of you and Rossindi?"

"Leave it to me ~ don't let me misunderstand that you are about to break the contract."
