One Piece Codex

The night and the black sea enveloped the Rainbow Island, which was as bright as a pearl, and the huge shadow in the center of the town was still talking.No one noticed that on the beach washed by waves far away from the edge of the island, the slightly larger sand and pebbles were beating slightly, and the crabs with shiny black backs and claws horizontally returned to the sea one after another, leaving only shallow marks on the beach.

Levi's smile, who was about to retort, suddenly froze, and he frowned.

"Tiger, there seems to be something underground."

Feeling the increasingly intense vibrations under his feet, Tiger regained his composure and said in a low voice, "Ah, it's an incredible guy moving."

Hudgison, who was speaking, paused, narrowed his eyes and smiled slowly: "It seems that tonight's main show is about to begin."

The crowd immediately became quiet and looked toward the crater in the center of the island.

While whispering, Levi and Tiger looked at each other suddenly, and also looked at the crater.

Snap, snap... The lights all around went out, and the crackling sound of bonfire wood was particularly clear in the crowd holding their breath.

The vibrations became stronger and stronger, and the roaring sound like a huge monster walking through the ground clearly fell in the ears of everyone present, but no one was afraid of it. Their faces were full of anticipation for the thing that was about to break through the ground.

rumbling...  

Li Wei stabilized his body and heard the little girl behind him who was being held by a woman say innocently: "Mom, mom, is there anything good to see on the mountain? Why are you all looking there!"

Before the woman could answer, the shaking on the ground stopped suddenly, and a faint fluorescent light emitted from around the crater. As people breathed in and out, the light became brighter, and a few scattered gravels rolled down from the top of the volcano...

next second!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Like a balloon that had been inflated to its limit and exploded, a huge straight beam exploded from the mountain pass, shooting straight into the sky with a loud sound.

Everyone exclaimed.

The girl pointed her fleshy little finger at the sky, "Mom! Look! It's a rainbow!"

Waves of air spread, causing Levi's broken hair to tremble.

It's just that his pupils reflected the colorful light beam that towered into the sky, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and the colorful halo flowed around the light beam, which looked so magnificent in the dark night.

In an instant, the clouds in the dark night were illuminated by rainbows, and the stars in the dark night were illuminated by colorful halos. The colors were like auroras, hovering in the sky like soft silk.

So beautiful... Levi couldn't help but feel lost for a moment.

The rainbow beam disappeared in an instant, leaving only the rainbow aurora filling the sky and the colorful shining light spots like falling snowflakes.The light spots fell from the clouds, some floated to the corners of the eaves, some floated to the coastal forest, and another one happened to land on the girl's braided hair.

Like a dream, like an illusion.

But without exception, these colorful light spots melt easily like the snow in early winter, and become cold like bright fireworks. They quickly dimmed as soon as they landed.

"Hahaha, if you say that all the rainbows in the world are born here, I believe it." Tiger took a light spot and chuckled.

Levi came back to his senses, closed his eyes gently, and tried to calm his inner turmoil.

A melodious and gentle sound of the piano gradually reached everyone's ears. Looking up, Hadgison, in a straight suit, was holding a red-brown wood-painted violin and began to play. The vocal music gradually progressed from gentle and comfortable to cheerful, as if there was something. Like magic, people's smiles gradually became excited, and they actually found nearby dance partners and started dancing happily.

"...

I fell in love with a little lover from the bottom of my heart,

Her clear eyes were as bright as two candles.

They sweep briskly across the vast fields,

Oh, there the world shines with joy! "

The melodious singing lingered in his ears, Levi's consciousness gradually blurred, and the figures around him were shaking. The nearest Tiger was also stunned and motionless with laughter, as if he was unaware of everything around him.

Li Wei staggered two steps, trying hard to stand firm, but his limbs became weak and he was about to fall to the ground.

"Tsk!"

He gritted his teeth, and the fingertips of his right hand suddenly crossed the palm of his left hand with domineering force.

puff!

A few drops of blood splashed onto his face, which was neither warm nor cold, and the pain he imagined did not come.Levi was unconscious for two seconds, his eyelids gradually became weak, and he finally passed out in the darkness.

[Damn it, are you going to do it again?I hope I can remember it when I wake up again...]

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

In the cave, water dripped from the top of the rock, and the ticking sound echoed in the darkness, reaching deep into the cave.

In a dark corner somewhere, a skinny figure sitting cross-legged suddenly opened his eyes, painfully covering his chest where blood was surging.

"Ahem!...Ahem!"

After a violent cough, there was a faint smell of fishy sweetness in the air.

is blood......

The figure rested for a moment and stood up unsteadily. He looked at the scarlet red on his palm and frowned deeply.

"Already, the fifth time..."

The man's hoarse and low voice echoed in the cave, with doubt in his tone, even a little disbelief?

He shook away the blood from his palm, then took out a dagger from his waist and staggered towards the edge of the cave.It was pitch dark all around, but the man pressed the mechanism on the stone wall skillfully.

There was a heavy rubbing sound between the stone door and the rock wall, and a faint light blue halo filled the open gap.Behind the stone wall is a larger dark room.

The man walks into the darkroom.

Rows of neat life-support cabins are arranged in front of them. Old wires are crisscrossed on the ground. The blue halo is emitted from these life-support cabins.

Encased in these metal cocoons...are people.

In every operating life support cabin, there is a sleeping life.Looking around, there are at least close to a hundred of those that are lit.

Leather boots clicked on the stone ground, and the man came to three side-by-side survival cabins. The wires on the ground nearby were not dusty and were much newer than others.

The figure paused in front of the first life-saving cabin.

The man bent down, and the light illuminated his face, which was so thin that his cheekbones protruded and was covered with stubble. He looked at the people in the cabin, and there was a bit of softness in his turbid eyes.

"Mrs. Anna..." he murmured.

Wrapped in the unknown fluorescent liquid, it turned out to be Grandma Anna from the tavern. Her chest was floating up and down imperceptibly, the corners of her bark-wrinkled mouth were raised, and she was sleeping peacefully.

"Mrs. Anna, I'm sorry. I forgot to comb your hair recently. I really can't get out of my way. Ahem! Ahem... In the past, every night when I couldn't earn money, madam, you would drag me to the hotel to teach me. When Erson learns piano, you will always say, 'Oh my God, those stupid selfish people don't even know that one night's room and board is several times cheaper than the piano lessons!'"

The man softly imitated the tone of Granny Anna's voice in his memory. His voice was hoarse but very gentle.

As he spoke, he laughed to himself twice.

"Ahem...Actually, madam, you should have told me earlier. After all, I would have had a lot of fun buying a high-quality mahogany piano for only half the price. Of course, that was assuming there wasn't some kind-hearted old lady. Helped me pay half of the deposit in advance..."

The man sometimes chuckled, sometimes sighed, and talked to himself for half a quarter of an hour before his voice gradually stopped.

Quiet......

"Oh." He sighed deeply, straightened up, and glanced sideways at the life-saving cabin next to him.After hesitating for a moment, the man put the dagger back into his waist and walked out.

The stone door was closed, and in the quiet dark room, what the man who walked out did not notice was that something strange appeared in the life-saving cabin that he had just glanced at.

In the cabin, under the strong brows, the eyelids twitched slightly.

And above the glass cover he was facing, there was a line of small characters written crookedly with a marker - [No. 101, Mark Levy]
