Chapter50

Secret x no solution x date of death

——I let the rain linger on your fingertips, and let the wind carry away my love for you

What I hate is only the powerless

Myself

--------------------------------

Selustine was leaning on a cane and wearing a black cloak, standing in front of the dark cell.

She took off her hood, and her dazzling blonde hair shone brightly in the cell.

The man who was handcuffed to the corner by layers of chains raised his head and met those completely indifferent blue eyes that seemed to glow slightly in the dark.

He smiled inexplicably, a huffing sound coming from his dry throat.

Selustine just looked at him, and when she looked straight into the man's unobstructed eyes, she spoke.

"I heard you wanted to see me"

These words fell softly in the dark prison, but there were several echoes in Fan Oka's ears.

He stared slightly at those luminous blue eyes, and then shook his groggy head violently the next second.

This woman is capable

After confirming this idea, he quickly closed his eyes and no longer looked at those beautiful blue eyes.

Selustine frowned when he saw this.

Her ability was originally based on the premise of eye contact. This man covered one eye, which seemed to greatly reduce her ability.

Pursing his lips, Seliu looked at the man in front of him who had closed his eyes but still had a crazy smile on his lips.

I originally wanted to fabricate a dream for him to see if I could directly extract information about the antidote, but now it seems that this plan has failed.

"I called you here because I want to tell you a secret."

"No need to be clever, I'm not interested in your secrets either."

Seliu rejected him directly, and felt that the weird smile made her more and more panicked.

The man didn't seem to be stopped by her words, he just kept his eyes closed and continued his remarks.

"I didn't have to kill you, but fate made me meet someone."

"It was he who described to me the magnificent ambition, the fame and power that was so close at hand."

The smile on his lips became more and more crazier, with a hint of fanaticism that Seleustin could not understand.

"People's dreams never end, do you think so?"

This was the first time Seleustin heard this, but there was an inexplicable feeling of familiarity in her heart, followed by a bone-chilling coldness.

"This was said by the man who was not destined to die. Speaking of which, you probably don't know him."

The ominous premonition became stronger and stronger. Seleustine stared closely at the dusty Van Oka in front of him, waiting for him to say that name.

"Marshall D. Teach, this is the name of the man who pronounced your death."

Selustine suddenly felt her breath suffocating. She subconsciously raised her left hand to protect her lower abdomen. When she realized it, her back was already soaked in cold sweat.

Where does this inexplicable fear come from?

Seleustin didn't know, but the great panic caused by this name even made her want to vomit physiologically.

"When a great man falls, there must be something buried with him, and you are the one he chose to sacrifice your life for an era that will never come."

The man over there is still talking and talking.

"I also learned a secret from him, a secret that only the two of us know."

He suddenly opened his eyes, and it seemed that he was no longer afraid of Seleustin's ability. He just stared at the increasingly pale girl in front of him.

Seleustin's intuition told her that the next secret was important and could not be known to others.

So she calmly took off her cloak, took it to the place farthest from where Van Oka was, and then turned back to the cell without saying a word.

Fan Oka saw her behavior, seemed to understand something, and suddenly smiled

"Come closer and I'll tell you."

With a cold face, Selustine approached the railing of the cell and squatted down.

"Do you know the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates? His name seems to be Portcas D. Ace?"

When he heard the name appear, Selustine's expression changed slightly, and she always felt that things were more serious than imagined.

"How interesting, that's not his name"

"He should be called—"

Van Oka lowered his voice, leaned forward, and called out the last name as if whispering softly.

Seleustin opened her eyes in shock, as if she had heard some extremely shocking news.

Van Oka seemed to be satisfied with her reaction. He leaned back and leaned against the wall very easily, waiting for Selustine to recover from the explosive news.

"Tell me, what will you do if the navy who is desperately protecting you finds out?"

Of course, even if we risk starting a war with Whitebeard, we must eradicate that bloodline.

"I want to use this secret in exchange for freedom."

He smiled, as if he was very confident that Seleustin would agree to him

"Where's the antidote?"

These simple words seemed to be squeezed out from the gaps between teeth, with chilling anger.

"What antidote? Ah, are you talking about those bullets?"

He teased Selustine badly, and it seemed that after the secret was blurted out, he became completely confident.

"Those bullets are specially made. After entering the human body, they will disperse the particles together with the strong medicine developed by Poison Q, and slowly seep into the wound."

"So there is no antidote. I lied to you."

He seemed to have said something funny, and he started laughing, not caring that he opened the newly scabbed wound with his movements.

Fan Oka didn't see that the girl opposite him had stood up at some point and was looking at him with an unclear expression from above.

No fear of knowing that I am about to die

"Do you have anything else to say?"

The cold words interrupted his laughter. Fan Oka intuitively felt that her reaction was not right, but he couldn't explain why it was so inconsistent.

He didn't speak and answered Seleustin's question in disguise.

"From what you said, the man named Teach must be dead."

"In other words, you are the only one who knows that secret now?"

Then, standing in front of the cell, a little girl in a white dress narrowed her blue eyes that no longer glowed, and smiled softly and generously.

It's like finally letting go

The next second, a translucent red blade stabbed straight into Fan Oka's chest.

Before his eyes turned into darkness, Fan Oka's eyes widened, and he only saw the girl who was still smiling like an angel nodding with satisfaction.

"It's so stupid, secrets"

Those eyes, but there is no smile at all

"Isn't it true that only the dead can guard it?"

Then, there is a darkness that will never dissipate

Seleustin picked up the cloak, put it on her body again, put on the hood to cover her blond hair, and her face with unclear expression was hidden in the shadows.

She walked out of the cabin and saw the person she expected

She stepped forward and, for the first time, took the initiative to hug someone.

"Sally"

Burying her face in his suit, Selustine reached out and grabbed the button on his front.

Porusalino did not respond to her, he just lowered his head and looked at her without saying a word. The atmosphere between the two of them was tense for a moment.

Seliu raised his head, still holding his clothes tightly in his hands, but there was a smile on his lips.

"Sally, how much did you hear?"

The smile didn't reach the bottom of his eyes, with a wariness and alienation that both parties knew clearly.

she knows

Porusalino thought that he had guessed it long before the phone bugs stopped transmitting sounds.

Seleustin learned that there was a listening device in the cloak he put on her

And the little girl looks very angry, otherwise she wouldn’t get close to her in this way

This abnormality is a warning to him, and it is also Seleu's rejection of himself.

Porusalino sighed, and after all, the hypocritical smile no longer appeared on his face.

He pressed Seleustin into his arms and stroked the top of her golden hair.

"What happened?"

This sentence is also an answer to her question just now.

Porusalino heard nothing useful at all

This realization made Selustine feel relieved in her heart. She was still buried in Porusalino's arms and did not leave.

Because she knew that the result she was going to tell him next might make him angry.

Thinking of this, Seleustine threw away the crutches, threw herself into the man's arms as if without any strength, and put her arms around his waist.

"If there is no cure, I will kill him with my power."

These words made Porusalino, who was always good at disguise, look at him.

There is really too much information contained in this sentence. Did Seleustin use that ability again, under the current situation where his self-healing ability is not even as good as ordinary people?How far would she go to ruin herself? What on earth did Van Oka say that made her have to kill him?

And, what did she just say?

"This joke is not funny at all, little Seryu."

He put his arms around her petite body, and what Seleu could not see on his lowered face was a gloomy and frightening expression.

“No joke”

Selustine closed her eyes. She had already prepared for this answer. At this time, she was just a little more disappointed.

Then, Porusalino heard the person in his arms say those words that instantly made his heart twist in a gentle voice.

"I don't have much time left, Sally."

Would it be a good thing to predict the death date of your loved one in advance?

No, because that is true love. It is a precious existence that can never be found again if lost.

But the answer may be yes, because at least fate still leaves time for us, allowing us to trace her vivid features a few more times before she passes away.

This is what happened in Porusalino's heart at this moment. Complex emotions kept surging, making him want to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he felt that they were too pale and weak to put at this moment.

He could only hold her slender waist tightly and try not to touch her wounds.

Then he carefully kissed the top of her hair gently

“It’ll be okay”

His voice is rare, it does not have a lazy or sarcastic tone, but has an indescribable solemnity.

"You'll be fine"

He was pale, repeating similar words over and over again, stroking the long golden hair of the person in his arms over and over again

I don’t know whether I am comforting her who can already see death, or comforting myself who is about to lose her beloved.

At this moment, although the two of them were hugging each other tightly, Porusalino could only feel a chill to his bones.

He suddenly felt very ridiculous, like a complaint and an unbearable accusation.

For the self who once led her to death, and for the powerless self now

Those negative emotions all turned into helpless grief and pity when his eyes touched that warm and brilliant golden color.

How could she die like this, before she could undo her mistakes?

Death does not come to those who are deeply loved

Another kiss fell on Seliu’s forehead

So it'll be okay

She will always be healthy and fresh, always by his side

Or like now, in his arms

Accept his kiss quietly

No fear of separation
