Chapter 490 The unobtainable fruit of the sacred tree
The world of One Piece, the Grand Line, off the coast of the Shampoo Islands, on the Black Bird.
Hancock and Gion sat next to Gawain with worried faces on their faces.
Gion gently took Gawain's hand, rubbed it, and sighed.
"Although the Lord left a message before falling asleep, he may stay asleep for a longer time this time.
But I didn't expect that he talked for so long.
Far from the one or two days or three or four days I thought, it has been a full half month."
Having said this, Gion raised Gawain's hand and felt Gawain's warmth with his cheek.
Opposite her, Hancock has long been helpless. Because he has been helpless for so long, she now looks silly and suddenly looks a bit like Bai Xing.
Seeing that Hancock did not respond to him, Gion raised his head dissatisfied, glanced at Hancock and said.
"Hey, Snake Girl, don't you usually talk a lot?
Why don't you say it now?
If we make a fuss now, will the adults wake up?"
"You have asked me this question many times these days, Rabbit..."
Hancock said while holding back his sadness.
"Besides, didn't Gawain specifically explain it before he fell asleep?
No matter what kind of abnormality he has, we must try our best to cover up his abnormality.
Now, both of us are about to become the scourge of beauty in their eyes, and we are so obsessed with them that they can't get out of bed for more than ten days.
Fortunately, we have the qualifications to cause trouble, otherwise, they really wouldn't believe that we can charm adults..."
While talking, Hancock lay down tiredly and snuggled into Gawain's arms.
While snuggling, she looked at Gawain sadly.
Although because of Gawain's words, they generally knew that there was not much problem with Gawain.
But...does Gao Wenji actually have this kind of genetic disease?
This kind of genetic disease that keeps sleeping for months at a time?
The adult fell asleep for a long time after the last fight with old thief Garp.
Now it's happened again, which is really worrying.
Otherwise, wait until the adult wakes up and persuade the adult to accept the special treatment from the doctors.
Maybe Dr. Kuleha will have a solution, or maybe there will be fruits from the operation!
We have to find a way to cure it!
While thinking about it, Hancock fell asleep. She hadn't closed her eyes for several days.
These days, she would continue to watch over Gawain as long as she was awake, and did not start to rest until she could no longer suppress her sleepiness.
Now she couldn't hold it in anymore, so soon, her and Gawain's breathing gradually became regular.
On the side, looking at Hancock and Gawain sleeping together.
Gion rubbed his forehead feebly.
"I always feel that I have not just found a home, but have become the mother of a group of children."
After a small complaint, Gion brought a towel and wiped Gawain's body.
After wiping Gawain, Gion rolled his eyes and looked at Hancock.
"Why……."
After letting out a long sigh, Gion stretched out the towel in his hand towards Hancock.
This made Hancock wake up in surprise, Gion's hand...?!?
"Huh?
don't want!?!
Not possible there!
!
rabbit!
!”
…
…
…
At the same time, other places on the Black Bird.
All those who have seen, heard and looked good are in an incomprehensible state of mind at this moment.
Although Gion and Hancock tried their best to cover it up, they also succeeded in preventing ordinary soldiers and civilians living on the Black Bird from worrying about Gawain's safety.
But for the strong, Gawain's physical condition cannot be concealed.
At this time, Hawkeye crossed his arms and sat on the lowest mast of the Black Bird.
While practicing swordsmanship in meditation, he spread out his sights and sounds, including the entire Black Bird and the nearby ocean.
He did not like his status as Gawain's subordinate, but he was indeed quite satisfied with his life on board the Black Bird.
Being able to spar with Takabumi Gion every day is very effective in improving your swordsmanship!
Especially when fighting Gawain!
For Mihawk, Gawain is like a mirror. Mihawk can always see his own shadow in Gawain's sword path!
In fact, he always felt that Gawain's swordsmanship was a hodgepodge version of himself!
Gawain may be the most qualified disciple in the world!
Not only did he possess his own swordsmanship through practicing with himself, but he also almost destroyed everyone who taught him.
Rayleigh's shadow, Gion's shadow, even Zoro's shadow, Yinska's shadow.
In every sword wielder on this ship, Mihawk can find his shadow in Gawain.
Fighting with such a person, Mihawk seemed cold and disgusted, but in fact he was very happy.
Therefore, when Mihawk noticed something unusual about Gawain, he completely ignored the room on that floor and used his knowledge to explore Gawain's situation!
He is not a rule-abiding person, nor does he really watch what he sees or hears, nor is he afraid that he will really feel something and be chased by Gawain.
In short, he got the answer easily. Gawain was not the kind of bad person who would slack off.
The reason why he missed the last half month of sparring was because Gawain fell into a coma and was unconscious!
After receiving the news, Mihawk was shocked at first, and then became wary.
He had to admit that he really didn't want anything to happen to Gawain, which would cause the blackbird to be shut down and the alliance to be in turmoil.
Although he is not easily influenced by so-called dreams.
But he liked the atmosphere on the Black Bird, and that was enough.
Therefore, Mihawk quietly took over the task of monitoring the Black Bird.
He was like this every day, sitting on the mast meditating and practicing his sword while observing his surroundings.
After half a month has passed, the Grand Line has now gained some momentum.
Pirates from all over the world are currently trying their best to squeeze into the Grand Line before Rayleigh reaches the Upside Down Mountain.
And the pirates in the Grand Line.
They changed their original idea of entering the new century and desperately wanted to escape into the world.
How to describe this, haha.
Life is like a besieged city, people outside want to come in and people inside want to get out, haha.
In short, today's Grand Line is in chaos, so chaotic that several wars broke out in the Chambord Islands.
The pirates attacked the big auction house in groups, hoping to take advantage of the chaos to escape into the new world, or to take advantage of the chaos to hide on Fish-Man Island.
As for the opposite side of the Red Continent, the Navy has built pontoon bridges one after another adjacent to the Red Continent.
They built a simple stronghold there, but they were guarded by generals at all times.
They have focused on interrupting and cooperating with Gawain's actions, and decided to shorten the future of the pirates with the great plan of shortening the great route!
And this will inevitably make the captains of Whitebeard's fleet feel dissatisfied.
Although the final war is still far away, it is obvious that small-scale collisions have begun!
Even in the past few days, two small boats of unknown heights have risen from the bottom of the sea and launched an attack on the Black Bird!
Mihawk knew what he should do, he didn't need to be too serious, and Gawain's affairs were guessed by more and more people.
He just needs to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai, and when strong men appear anywhere, he can pin those guys to death as quickly as possible!
You can't show that the Black Bird lacks combat power, and you can't expose your weak side to the enemy!
This is Mihawk's decision.
He was confident that he could do this, unless the Four Emperors...
No, are they the Three Emperors now?
Unless the Three Emperors come in person, everyone else will be just bones in the grave.
However, he sincerely hoped that this life would not last too long.
Otherwise, if some accidents cause the situation to suddenly become chaotic.
Then Mihawk is just a strong man after all, and a mere strong man will never be able to do the job of a leader!
…
…
…
On the other hand, the ninja world.
In other words, in the future ninja world.
After two days of continuous fierce fighting, Kaguya finally ended the battle and wiped away the remaining consciousness of Ichiki.
After two days of waiting, Gawain was almost impatient. As soon as the battle ended, Gawain enthusiastically celebrated Kaguya and then presented him with the scrambled eggs he had made during the past two days.
Eating raw food is too popular in the ninja world, and now there is no such thing as ramen.
Therefore, it is not easy to get some eggs and pots for frying in nearby villages.
Kaguya was not surprised when she saw scrambled eggs, or in other words, she had never been surprised except for Ishiki.
After defeating the great enemy of Yi Shi, she felt relaxed now, and actually had a serious meal with Gawain.
After the meal, Gawain burned the bowl almost dry with a sip of flame, and then looked at Kaguya.
Facing Gawain's eyes, Kaguya thought for a moment, then nodded.
"I can feel your desire, and I won't break your promise.
Now that Yi Shi has died in my hands, you can present the gift you deserve."
After saying that, Kaguya waited for Gawain's answer expressionlessly.
Looking at the extremely indifferent Kaguya, Gawain smiled slightly and said.
"What else can I desire? Look at you, you can't offer anything except yourself.
Tell me, do you only have one set of clothes now?
What can you give me like this?"
Having said this, Gawain glanced at Kaguya in a funny way.
As for Kaguya, she didn't feel offended because she didn't understand those things at all.
He actually followed Gawain and looked up and down his body, then shook his head fiercely.
"If you want my clothes, that's impossible.
As for, if you want to use the small merits in front of you to try to make me your slave.
Then you will only be the next one!
As for you saying I have nothing on hand.
Yes, I do have nothing, but if I want, I can have everything!
Make your request seriously and stop joking with me.
No matter what you want, even if you want this whole planet, I can give it to you!"
After the words fell, Kaguya looked at Gawain with great confidence.
In her eyes, as long as the Otsutsuki family doesn't attack, as long as a large number of high-ranking officials don't show up to beat her up.
Then she has nothing to fear!
Facing the confident Kaguya, Gawain smiled softly and shook his head.
"Hey, Kaguya, do you think I can't get those things you mentioned?
Apart from you, is there anything else in the world under my feet that is qualified to stop me?
You see, a contradiction arises.
You tell me, you can help me get whatever I want.
But even without you, I can get it myself.
You see, a contradiction has arisen, haha.
And no matter what, it’s more reasonable for me to find a gift that I can’t get myself and can only rely on you to get, right?”
Gawain looked at Kaguya with a smile, and Kaguya nodded after thinking about it.
She felt that what Gawain said was reasonable, and she also discovered that Gawain's words always seemed to be so reasonable.
So, even she couldn't help but think about it.
Is there anything else that Gawain himself can’t get?
While Kaguya kept thinking, Gawain took a deep breath, and then tentatively said to Kaguya.
"Hey, Kaguya!
I just thought about it and it seems like there is something I can’t get!”
Having said this, Gawain slowly looked at Kaguya's hand.
Just when Kaguya thought she had something in her hand.
Gawain finally spoke to Kaguya.
"I have heard Yishi say before that you and he once planted a tree called the Sacred Tree on this planet.
Although the time I communicated with Yishi was very short, when he regarded me as one of your tribe, the first thing he did was to tell me that you had obtained the fruit of the sacred tree!
The matter seemed so serious that he had to talk about it in the first place.
so……."
Whoosh!
!
Suddenly, the sharp gray skeleton was on Gawain's neck!
"No one can covet the fruit of the sacred tree, let alone the fruit that I have already consumed!
Qinglong, it seems we have to distinguish between life and death!
!”
As he spoke, Kaguya wanted to pass the ashes of his comrades forward.
Although she didn't think she could solve Gawain all at once, she at least expressed her attitude.
On the opposite side, Kaguya was on the verge of breaking out.
Gawain quickly raised his hand and caught the ashes of the common killer with his hand wrapped in countless armed colors.
Gawain explained to Kaguya while holding the blade that killed Ash Bones together.
"Hey, Kaguya, why are you so impatient.
Can't you wait until I finish speaking?
It’s not the fruit of the sacred tree that I want you to eat.
I just want to ask you, how did you grow that fruit?"
Hearing this, Kaguya hesitated for a moment, and finally took back the ashes of the killer.
As long as you don't want to steal your own fruits, that's fine.
Opposite her, Gawain was still saying this.
"Look, Kaguya, you and Ishiki have already fallen out because of that fruit incident.
I can see that in your family, Yi Yi is the one with a relatively high status.
At least a little stronger than you should be.
In short, you have broken up with them, right?
Do you need to continue to protect the way for them to get that fruit?
If I were you, then I should know very well that after completely breaking up with my family, I should strengthen my power to fight against my family.
You should be like this too.
I think you can tell me how to plant trees, and then we can plant trees and eat them together.
In this process, even for the fruits, I will become your strongest ally.
I have the ability to completely stand on your side and accompany you against your family.
And the stronger I can naturally provide you with greater help!
!”
At this point, Gawain's voice gradually became louder, and Kaguya gradually became serious.
After listening to Gawain's words, she thought hard for a long time before raising her head.
Facing Gawain's waiting eyes, Kaguya slowly shook her head.
"Perhaps you are right, there is no need for me to protect the secret of the sacred tree for the clan.
I have already eaten the fruit, and I don’t care if others will eat the fruit.
But the problem is, I really can’t plant a second sacred tree now….
This is not because I want to break my promise, I... will explain it to you!"
