Vice Captain of One Piece

Chapter 239 Memory Awakening: Beautiful Past, Heartbreaking Parting 3
Usopp side.

After joining the Pirates, he was also thankful that there was a child on the ship who looked weaker than him, although he had seen how powerful that child was when he fought against the Black Cat Pirates in their village.But the vanity on the surface is still there. After all, except for Nami who is a little weaker among the guys on the boat, the other three men are as strong as monsters.

It was only as the subsequent adventures became more and more thrilling that he fully realized that the powerful ability of that seemingly powerless child was completely out of his class.

At that time, he was still wondering why her ability was so strong.Although she is a devil fruit capable user and has two very powerful demon knives, theoretically speaking, it is impossible for an ordinary ten-year-old girl to be so strong, right?

Unable to restrain his curiosity, he began to swipe around at Luffy, but unfortunately the always vague captain was exceptionally smart at this time, joking and unknowingly took the topic away.

But later, I got used to it, and when I encountered enemies, I hid behind the powerful people on the boat as a matter of course, and then waved my hands to let them rush up.Although in some cases, he would still fight like a man, but when he couldn't fight, he would always see that child descending from the sky like a savior, and then easily beat those enemies to pieces.

Originally, he was a little frustrated at the beginning, after all, as a man who was much older than her, he actually needed a little doll to protect him, and it made people laugh out loud.

But the power of habit is always strong, and in the end, he has completely included her among the monsters like Luffy, Zoro, Sanji and Robin.

Until later, I met the admiral and knew her true identity.Only then did he understand why she was so powerful, and only then did he realize that she, who looked like a ten-year-old child, was actually the same age as them.

However, his thought at that time was only two words: monster.

It was absurd, when he learned the true identity of his life-and-death partner, his first reaction was not to smile and say it didn't matter, but to look at her different pupils with fear.

Even though the other partners firmly expressed their position during the discussion later, even if he also answered affirmatively that she was their partner, I believe that even the other people on the ship would not want to believe that kind of hesitation, let alone being able to What about her who can see through people's hearts?
To be honest, he was quite envious of Sauron at that time. Not only did he know her identity a long time ago, but he also regarded her as a partner as always, accepting her with sincerity in expression and psychology, instead of being hesitant to make a decision like him.

Later, he had a falling out with the Pirates because of the Golden Merry. Nami, Chopper and even Sanji rushed out to keep him loudly, but none of the three of Luffy spoke.

When he proposed to fight with Luffy, he clearly saw the gloomy face on that girl's face, it was not because of the reluctance and sadness shown because of the departure of her partner, but the killing intent, just because his behavior made her hold her heart The captain of the ship was injured.

Later, because of Robin's affairs, he also followed them to Judiciary Island. Although he put on a mask and a cloak, he knew very well that except for Chopper and Luffy who were simply over the top, no one else could recognize them. We all know his identity.The girl just glanced at him indifferently and didn't say much. At that time, he thought she was too excited and didn't know what to say.

It was only later that she slowly guessed that she didn't care whether he came or not.After leaving the Straw Hat Pirates, he is just a passerby, and his combat power and existence value are not worth her troubles to deal with.

After the Battle of Judiciary Island ended, after sending away the Golden Merry, he confronted the navy that was chasing and killing her. He was transferred to a safe sailing ship and left the area in a daze. A war-torn place.But she was still caught up by the enemy, beaten half to death, and became a hostage who threatened her.

After waking up, the girl was dying and unconscious, and he also saw the strength of Xiaolu, the leader of the opponent, and the posture of easily picking up the real submarine with dozens of tons made him faint from fright.

It was a shameful thing, but before they knew how to deal with it, the girls had already woken up, modified their memories without authorization and disappeared without a trace.

Having lost their memory, they continued to laugh and slapstick as usual until they found her knife.Luffy's behavior began to become weird, but at that time he only wanted to let them throw away the ominous knife.

The obvious difference let people know who has a deeper bond, and then everyone came to the fairy-like island-Flower Fairy Island, and saw her who had completely lost their memory, but they still didn't remember who she was.When Luffy and the others turned around and left with serious expressions, he was still blank and didn't know what was going on.

………………

Thinking of everything in silence, Usopp looked at the blackness in front of him with a serious expression, and then roared loudly, "It is a man's style to go forward bravely when encountering a strong enemy!! Wait, Encore, we I will definitely snatch you back!!!”

Joba side.

It has been unable to trust humans, just because it has been hurt by humans too many times.From birth, it was rejected by the deer because of its distinctive blue nose. Later, when it accidentally ate a devil fruit and became a monster with neither human nor deer, it was even more miserable.The herd of deer expelled it, and when it turned into a human form and wanted to mix into human society, it was blamed as a monster.

Finally met a kind doctor, taught him great medical skills, and then met the person who changed his life - Luffy.After joining the Pirates, it has seen many things and met its partners.

It doesn't know if there are children in the other pirate groups, but it has never been deeply involved in the world, and it doesn't doubt why Luffy took a cute little girl with him on the voyage.

When I first boarded the boat, it explained why the duck Karoo had been staring at her with a red heart, and then saw her angrily chasing Karoo with a burning knife in the next second.

Usopp, the sniper on the ship, warned it in a low voice not to make the child angry, because even the captain would not be able to persuade her if she became self-willed.

Chopper believed it, and then kept obediently not to provoke her. After all, after witnessing countless times of strong swordsmen being thrown into the sea, it was too frightened to offend the little vice-captain.

Later, more and more adventures let it know that the little vice-captain is not as weak as it appears on the surface, at least it has never seen her fighting with all her strength.And it has always been curious, why she has been covertly refusing to approach her when she is sick, and every treatment needs all the staff to persuade her like a world war.

In the end, it really knew the girl's ability and past, the kind of distressing past.However, since then, as a doctor, he saw her injured, but he was helpless because he had never been exposed to such a strange condition.It never had a clear understanding of the eye that brought her strength and pain, not only because she rarely let it be examined carefully, but also there was no record of such a thing in the data.

During the battle on Judiciary Island, there was no way to treat her who was attacked and dying. She could only helplessly watch her vomit blood continuously and was dying.When the savior rushed over, it could only watch from the side, unable to help.

Finally, someone accepted him as a student to learn the ability to help her, but before he had time to learn that child, he was chased by the enemy and taken away.And those who were dazed didn't even know whether she was alive or dead, and they were glad that they had successfully returned from Judicial Island.

……

Chopper who remembered it thoroughly lowered his head silently, not knowing what he was thinking.But I have already made a decision in my heart, that is to take back the lost partner no matter what.Just because she is their most important partner, as for other things, we will talk about it later.

............................................................

Robin side.

The first time Robin knew about this child was when she was rumored by the world.Because she learned that this little child also has the ability to awaken ancient weapons, she has been paying attention to her silently.She had no doubts until two years ago when the news reported that the child died of the Demon Slaying Order.Because Robin was well aware of the combat power of the Demon Slaughter Order, under such a terrifying attack, it was impossible for a 12-year-old child to survive.

However, five years later, he saw a ten-year-old girl on a dilapidated pirate ship.Robin could clearly see the same aura in that child as himself, that dark aura, that kind of hypocrisy that was trying to cover up.

Later, the true identity of the child was confirmed.However, she didn't really want to do anything to the child.Not to mention her strange ability, just being able to survive the Demon Slaying Order already shows her extraordinary.

Later, Robin, who was seriously injured by Crockdale, saw the child while fleeing.The pale child is a little unreal in the hazy rain, with a sweet smile on his face with a little calculation.

At that time, she thought that this child would dispose of her, but she did not expect this little child to invite her:
'Now, come to our ship?Nico Robin? '

Feeling very surprised, she stared blankly at the girl who didn't know what she was planning, hesitated for a while, just smiled and nodded to leave.And later, she really came to this ship, holding the mood of "temporarily hiding here".

Seeing her coming, the girl's expression didn't change at all, as if she knew she would come a long time ago.At that time, she didn't know the real purpose of the girl, until later she didn't know what kind of mood the girl sent the invitation letter to her who was full of evil.

Gradually, Robin was attracted by this little pirate group and really liked this team.But the too short happy time was broken by the sudden arrival of the general Aokiji. He thought his goal was himself, but he didn't expect that the girl who hid deeper than her was the real goal.

Maybe the girl knew this ending a long time ago, but she solved everything almost perfectly.Until the city of water, the girl said to her clearly:

'Stay out of trouble, Nico Robin.I don't want the world to know my existence yet...'

Her answer at the time was 'I will try my best', but she was found by cp9 and taken away.The girl who found her easily had no intention of letting her come back. She just saw the situation clearly and set up a chess game dominated by her.

'Oh, Nico Robin.I have already guessed your decision, since it is a harmless transaction for the Straw Hat Pirates, then do whatever you want.Don't go too far, though.Luffy and the others are still very young~~', the smiling child said to her indifferently, making careful calculations so that he could get the most benefit from this chess game.

He didn't feel guilty about treating his partner as a pawn, and even expressed his thoughts in front of that partner.It was ruthless, but Robin knew it was the character of this kid: a character that could not begin to trust others without going through the trials of life and death.

Later, when she was taken to Judiciary Island, she thought that her friends would not come after her, but instead she saw that the Straw Hat Pirates with all their members declared war on the world as a matter of course.She had thought that cold-blooded girl would stop their decision, but she was the one who broke the world government's banner.

The naturally fierce battle snatched her back, and the demon-slaying order that frightened her was almost destroyed by the girl alone.

The unexpected arrival of the Golden Merry took them away after a narrow escape. Taking advantage of this time, the child smiled at her tenderly, without any pretense,
'Welcome back, historian of the Straw Hat Pirates~~~'

At that time, she knew that the child might have accepted her arrival sincerely.

After encountering an iceberg and their ship was the death of the Golden Merry.After the heavy snowflakes passed, the boat spirit left.Then it was a battle of life and death.

The Straw Hat Pirates, who were obviously not their opponents, were completely defeated, but they didn't want her to leave just like this. They were about to fight to the death, but found that she was holding her body, but she directly dismissed their actions, leaving no room for all of them. The curtain fell.

He changed their memory with his ability, and then left with those navies without any remnants.Just like a long time ago, the girl said to her with an unpredictable smile: "If those guys find me, I will solve all the troubles perfectly, and I won't make Luffy feel a little strange." '

At that time, Robin simply thought that that child would secretly get rid of those who hunted her down, but she didn't expect that her perfect solution to everything was to make everyone forget her existence, including the partners who had always lived and died together.

It is indeed a 'perfect' solution. If the partners don't find that the current life is a bit strange due to the influence of Yaodao Xuelian, then she will 'disappear' forever, and those enemies related to her will not appear around them.

Robin felt strange, theoretically, they were making a fuss in such an important place as Judiciary Island, and it was impossible for the Navy to simply offer a bounty to them.Moreover, escaping from the Demon Slaughter Order is also a bit strange, after all, that kind of national-level combat power is not just for fun.Then the pirates who attacked out of nowhere were also a little bit unexplainable.

It turned out that all of this was manipulated by that child, just to fill the unnatural gap in their memory.And they didn't realize until now that although more than a week is not a long time, it is too long for them now, as if that important partner has been away for a long time...

..................................................................

"As expected of Miss Vice Captain, how clean and tidy you are when you leave without leaving any traces...", commented with a chuckle, but there was no smile in Robin's eyes, only indescribable solemnity, "But, Luffy seems to have said 'I refuse' to your departure, so you still belong to this pirate ship, and belong to Captain Luffy, Ms. Encore~~~"
