Do you draw cards in One Piece World?

This is Yokohama.

In a certain snack shop, a woman wearing a light pink woolen coat was holding a little boy with blond hair by her left hand, standing in front of the counter to buy snacks.Another older boy was lying on the counter. He was wearing a pair of glasses and was observing the dough mixer in front of him with great interest.The nimble lady smiled, packed the freshly made wagashi in a box, and handed it to the child.

"It's better to eat this portion while it's hot. It's easier to store it hard later. It's recommended to give it away or keep it for a long time." The short-haired girl wearing a coarse cloth apron and helping the cashier bowed. She looked at them with some envy, her eyes on the woman's head. The pearls pinned to the rose linger above it.Whether it's the silver butterfly buckle or the gold filigree pattern on the edge, it attracts her.

"Thank you, little girl." The woman smiled and touched the girl's head.The older boy stepped forward to take the snack box very naturally, while the younger boy, who was being held by the woman, didn't even look here.

The girl's face turned red and she turned her head away a little arrogantly: "No, you're welcome... I'm going to see if the stuffing at the back is marinated!"

Watching the girl run away in a hurry, the woman spoke softly with some complaints: "Auntie, you are very lucky. Your daughter is very cute. It would be great if I also have several lovely daughters, but it is a pity that I always fail to live up to my expectations. Boy."

"You mean Akiko, hey." The lady proprietor of the pastry shop paused, with a hint of sadness on her brows, "I also hope she is my daughter, but that child is always unwilling."

"Hey?"

"Her parents were caregivers who lived in the previous alleys. I heard they died in an accident, and she was the only one left. It's a time of war now, and I don't even have enough to eat. How can I have time to care about these poor children? .”

"It seems that your business is not very good either." The woman's tone was cold and calm, which suddenly calmed down the restlessness and resentment in her heart.

"To tell you the truth, I was really relieved when you came here today." The landlady said with a smile, "There have been no customers for three or four days, and the child's father was forcibly drafted to fight. This shop is really the only one in our family. source of livelihood.”

"I'm sorry to make you hear so many boring things. Are you a tourist here? You don't look like a local."

"Well... I'm here to visit a friend. It's my first time in Yokohama." The woman's dark eyes lowered slightly, and she looked at the two children looking in from behind the curtain. They looked three-thirds like the woman. "It's better outside. If it's not possible, consider moving elsewhere."

"..." The boss lady slowed down her movements and asked with a wry smile, "There are wars everywhere, where is the safe place?"

"...I'm sorry." The woman fell silent after hearing this.

"I'm back! The freshest bean paste!" Akiko ran back happily carrying a ceramic jar. She felt something was wrong in the atmosphere and stopped, with a look of confusion on her face, "What happened?"

"It's Akiko." The woman smiled and glanced at the landlady. "It's nothing. I have something I want to talk to you about alone. Can you come into the cubicle with me?"

"Ah? What's going on?" The girl put her hands on her hips dissatisfied, "It's so mysterious... but okay, who is Akiko-sama who is kinder! I promise you!"

The landlady seemed to realize what the woman wanted to say, she moved her lips and looked hesitantly.But she didn't say anything in the end.

"Okay, there's no one here anymore, what do you want to say?" The little girl with short hair tilted her face and sat on the stool, dangling her feet, playful and cute, "If it's adoption or something, forget it, I You are quite comfortable living by yourself, so go find the children who need this more."

The woman considered it for a moment and chose to speak directly: "I know you seem to have very magical powers."

The child's movements paused momentarily, confusion, fear, uneasiness and vague excitement intertwined on his face.

"I also have a special power." The woman raised her head, her soft hair falling down her face, revealing her pale and bloodless ears, "I can know a little about the other person's future through touch."

Akiko subconsciously clenched her fists and clutched her apron nervously.Why do you know I have special powers?What is your purpose?what you up to?

All kinds of questions came to her mind for a while, but when she turned to her mouth, they turned into one sentence: "Then what do you want to tell me about the future?"

"Yes, in two days, a military doctor will discover your ability because you used your ability to save a baby bird that fell to the ground in front of him. Then he will take you to join the army as a military doctor. Team doctor."

"But this is not a good thing..."

"War is very cruel, and your abilities should not be used in war."

"That military doctor used your ability in an attempt to create an undead army and win victory."

"In the end, those soldiers will even blame you because they have to go to the battlefield again because of your ability..."

"Because those soldiers suffered mental breakdowns, all your efforts were in vain, and you were imprisoned as war criminals."

"..." The girl bit her lip. She obviously didn't understand what happened in the future, but she just felt that it was not a good thing.

"I hope you can leave with me, and I will go through the procedures to adopt you and give you a perfect childhood as much as possible. Instead of war."

"I don't quite understand what you said, what plan, what soldiers..." Her tone gradually dropped, "But what my father told me, what I know is that the brother next door lost his father because of the war. , the aunt who had been taking me in also lost her original job and could only make ends meet."

"People are in panic all day long. This was originally a happy and prosperous city. But if the war is lost, this place will also become the territory of foreigners, filled with black, and will never be able to return to the place I saw before..."

"...I know you think that I am a child and that war is a matter for adults. But this is also my country, and I also want to do something. I never knew that my ability was useful before, but now that I know it, I don't want to let it go. If I do it, I can't accept it. This way I will look like a coward trying to escape!" Akiko, who was still young, frowned. She seemed to have made up her mind and raised her head angrily.

The woman looked straight at the girl, and even the boy eating snacks stopped what he was doing.

"I'm not afraid of being criticized!"

You will regret this……

“Isn’t it a good thing to save lives?”

It is indeed a good thing, but it should not be used as a bargaining chip in war...

"This is the hope of victory!"

There is no hope...

"I know you're worried about me, but I still want to give it a try!"

no……

"And I know the problem, shouldn't I try to avoid this result?" Yosano Akiko's eyes were very bright, and her expression was confident and energetic. "As long as you can encourage them in time! Pay attention to their emotions! They Then I won’t be so sad that I want to commit suicide!”

The woman, Heywood in disguise, was silent.

In the final analysis, the crux lies with Mori Ogai. If she concealed this matter, Yosano Akiko would not be happy.She will feel guilty and think that if she can serve as a military doctor, what changes can she bring to the battlefield.

Looking at the girl's worried and expectant eyes, Heywood suddenly figured out, did his parents look at him like this when he was determined to hit the wall?

She smiled: "If you have made up your mind, go ahead and try it boldly."

"I will be your strongest support. If you feel sad, sad, want to give up, or feel helpless, don't hesitate to come to me directly."

Heywood tapped his bracelet, and a light golden bracelet jumped out instantly, circled around and landed on Yosano Akiko's neck.

"Huh?" She subconsciously touched her neck and looked down to see that she had a necklace with a hollow heart. It was the size of a thumb knuckle and had a light golden heart. It was so cute.

"When you need help, just hold the necklace and shout my name loudly." Heywood gently asked, "My name is Heywood."

"!!!" She blushed instantly and her tone was urgent and fast, "Who! Who wants you to mind your own business! Humph! I can handle it myself!"

Kabuto, who was holding a piece of red bean paste and fruit, shook his hand and the fruit fell to the ground with a clatter.

"Akiko?!" The sharp voice caught the attention of the landlady. She knocked on the door and stood outside, hesitating whether to come in.

"I, I'm leaving!" Yosano Akiko stood up with a snap, held the necklace around her neck hard, and ran away without refusing after all.

"..." Kabuto turned to look at Heywood, pointing angrily at his shattered snack, and then looked up at the direction where Yosano Akiko disappeared.

"I'll buy you another one," Heywood laughed, picked up Junrokuro, who had been dazed, and patted Kabuto on the head, "Okay, don't hold grudges."

However, it seems that he didn't read the almanac when he went out today, or maybe Kabuto Yakushi and Bungou Stray Dog World's horoscopes are not compatible.

He followed Heywood with a box of freshly baked bean paste and fruits. As soon as he took out a piece, he felt something hit him, his vision went dark, and the entire box of snacks in his hand disappeared.

Oops - a light green chakra scalpel emerged from his hand. With a ruthless look in his eyes, he grabbed another black figure sneaking up on him and cut it along the direction.

"Hiss—" Heywood gasped and reached out to grab his handbag that was caught by an unknown thread.

Because the altitude was not high enough, Kabuto Yakushi could not understand the situation, but Heywood could see clearly from his high position.

They were three children, ranging in age from fifteen to eleven or twelve. One rushed up to touch the porcelain to attract Kabuto's attention, one stopped him, and the last one hid in the dark, using a method similar to fishing to grab Kabuto's and his own. thing.

She watched as the boy who knocked Kabuto out of the way suddenly turned into a dinosaur, with his mouth wide open and his terrifying teeth aimed at Kabuto's neck.Kabuto swayed to steady his steps, but the impact just now knocked his glasses off his head. He used the scalpel to block the dinosaur's teeth completely relying on the feeling he had been practicing.

zizi——

The chakra knife penetrated deep into the dinosaur's body, cutting open unknown blood vessels and tendons, and the dinosaur let out a wailing roar.

"Let him go!" The child holding him was obviously much thinner, and he hugged his legs uneasily.Heywood stopped and looked at the child.

"Why, why...the superpower didn't work?" His eyes were full of panic, and he looked at Heywood with tears in his eyes.

"..." Ah, it feels like bullying a child...

Kabuto Yakushi and the short dinosaur were in a stalemate for a while, and the box containing wagashi was knocked over to the ground, and the snacks were completely scattered.Heywood froze and broke the thread on his handbag and easily retrieved it.

The child who was hiding in the dark and controlling the thread finally couldn't bear it anymore. He rushed out and conjured more threads in his hand.He attempts to grab the weaker-looking Kabuto Yakushi and use him to threaten Heywood.

But when Heywood grabbed Kabuto's collar and led him to a safe place, he found that the child just made a feint, quickly rolled up his two companions with a line and ran away.

"My snacks!" Kabuto Yakushi adjusted his glasses, looking at the dead snacks on the ground, his expression darkened little by little.

"Hanataro," Heywood raised his lips, "What did you find?"

"...Those three people should be the waifs of this generation." Kabuto instantly realized that this seemed to be a test and calmed down. "Looking at their clothes, they were all covered in dust and patches. One or two of them were thrown on randomly and didn't fit. Adult clothes. If it’s a child with parents, at least the parents will help change the clothes that don’t fit.”

"The people around are not too surprised. They are obviously repeat offenders. They escaped very quickly and are familiar with the terrain here, so their base camp should be near here!"

"Then the next step is to find other people to find out if there is a group or gathering place for juvenile delinquents, so that they can be caught smoothly." Yakashi Kabuto pushed up his glasses, and a white light glowed on the lenses.

"Ah, ah sneeze -" 'Fifteen', who was correcting documents in the office, rubbed his nose and couldn't help but muttered, "It's too much, it's getting more and more excessive. You actually left this mess to me for weeks..."

"I also want to play in other worlds..."

[Be patient, Fifteen,] During this period, Little Spiral quickly became familiar with Fifteen, and got used to Fifteen's unique brain circuit, [Ah Mu said that he would stay there longer this time. time, I can bring the book back if I can’t help it...]

"The origin of the world..." Fifteen murmured, showing a strange expression, "It's been a long, long time since I've seen someone so weak."

【? ? 】

"Ms. Heywood?" A girl wearing a gothic lolita-style cake skirt opened the door and walked in. Her hair was a very sweet cherry blossom pink, and her ink-colored eyes looked very cute.

"Ah, it's Perona." Fifteen showed a stiff smile, "What's wrong? Didn't you go to school with your brothers and sisters?"

That day, when Odasaku took several children, Ender, and the others out to sea to patrol and survey the nearby terrain, they picked up Perona that drifted over with the ocean current.After asking, she found out that she was a victim of a shipwreck, with no father or mother and no place to go, so she was allowed to stay.Although he happily accepted Heywood, he refused to change his name.

She yelled that the name was not cute at all and was too tacky, which hit Heywood hard.In the end, the original name Perona was successfully retained.Little Spiral also laughed at Heywood for this matter.But none of this is a problem, Fifteen thought.Although she also thinks the name Higurashi Takako or Takakoko is quite nice.

"Kumasi is broken." Perona looked like she was about to cry but she held up the tattered and bandaged stuffed bear in front of Fifteen. "Look! His cotton is exposed! He's not cute at all!"

"Perona wants a cuter doll!!"

Fifteen pinched the doll and found traces of stitching repairs. However, it was obvious that the repairman's skills were poor. Instead of repairing the doll, the doll was more punctured by the stitches. She couldn't help but fall into silence.

All the adults living in the small castle, including Nonou and Gide, went to Fumino's side. Only Odasaku didn't go there because he was worried about the child he had just brought home. So it was clear who repaired the doll...

No, no, even though Mazumi Uzumaki is not familiar with them, he can't rule out this option directly... As expected, he is still very angry. If he can't make up for it, he is called an expert!

"Did you use Grandpa Carrot's beard?"

"Hey! That's right! Grandpa Carrot is so stingy!" The girl put her hands on her hips proudly, "But I cut off a lot of them without him noticing! Hahahahaha..."

"...Okay, I will think of a way. You can go back to class first. You can see a complete Kumasi in the afternoon." Fifteen coaxed bravely.

[...] Little Spiral looked at Perona who ran away happily but had a bad premonition.
