Sitting on the edge of the corridor, Kozuki Oden retracted his feet to avoid the afternoon sun. His eyes were curious and frightening, and he looked at Lovett, who was taking a lunch break on a bench not far from the courtyard.
"Is this man really not nervous at all?"
He thought incomprehensibly.
"If the news leaks out, the whole plan will be completely ruined!"
Is it true that even the navy does not dare to disobey his orders as he said?
Kozuki Oden has seen the sea outside and knows how majestic and vast it is with heroes and heroes, so he can't even imagine the intimidating power of the words "Black Earl" in the sea now!
Today's Haiyang, whether it's the navy or the underworld, as long as he gives an order, no one dares to disobey his will!
Apart from the World Government, there are only two types of people who dare to oppose him.
The remnants of the revolutionary army, and pirates.
Well, of course.
If the two of them didn't go against each other or the government, their group would cease to exist, so it would be strangely normal for them to always be at odds with each other.
but……
Lovett was not interested in explaining these things to him. In his eyes, Kozuki Oden was just a tool that was not as useful as Kozuki Hiwa... a tool?
At this time, footsteps sounded.
The expression on Kozuki Oden's face suddenly froze, and he turned his neck: "Hi...Hiyori?"
The person who came was none other than Guangyue Rihe.
The policy currently decided by Lovett is to wait, so there is nothing to do.
With his head lowered, Kozuki Rihe held the corner of his clothes so as not to look at him, and said with a hint of hope in his voice: "Well... mother, can't I come back with you?"
In response, Kozuki Oden's expression gradually turned gloomy and he did not speak.
Hiyori read the answer from his expression and suddenly raised her head...
"I advise you not to disturb the master's rest."
Aka, who was sitting cross-legged in the corridor, said calmly: "Otherwise, even if I can't kill you, I will make your life worse than death."
Undead, loyalty is their common motto.
Mitsuki Hiwa shuddered and calmed down: "Then, is the money not enough?"
"I can borrow it from Lang Sang, and he will definitely lend it to me."
"No, it doesn't have to be that troublesome."
Aka finally opened his eyes and looked over expressionlessly: "Do you really think the master cares about your little money?"
Hihe was silent.
"If you don't resurrect your mother, it's just because she can't be resurrected."
Even though he had already guessed the answer, Hiyori Kozuki couldn't help but ask: "Why?"
"Because she is a fruit capable person."
It was Lovett who answered him.
Aka turned around, put his hands on his thighs and bent down to salute.
On the couch, Lovett rubbed his eyes and turned his head to look at her: "After eating the devil fruit, the fruit factors will reside in the body and soul of the person with abilities. As the person with abilities dies, the fruit factors begin to disperse in order to be reunited.
, even the souls of those with abilities are also floating away."
"Although I am very reluctant to do so, the fact is that even as a necromancer, I cannot resurrect a completely dissipated soul."
"That's the true sense of the word, soul-crushing!"
Plop!
Guangyue Rihe sat slumped on the ground softly, with confusion in his eyes.
"I see……"
"Mother……"
Behind him, Kozuki Oden raised his hand to touch Hiyori, but put it down after several attempts. Then he smiled casually: "Actually, I am the same."
Seeing Rihe looking back, he held back his heartache and said solemnly: "Life and death are natural principles. Those who leave should not come back."
"The farthest distance between life and death is the farthest distance. This is the law of nature. If everyone brings their loved ones back to life and the aging existence never disappears, what vitality will this sea have?"
Lovett: "..."
Always feel like you've been offended by a tool?
but……
Bang bang bang!
"That's good. I appreciate you more and more, Kozuki Oden."
The two men suddenly woke up and saluted Lovett.
Putting down his palms, Lovett lazily leaned on the chair. The red-eyed raven was studying Dafu on the table, and was so choked that it rolled all over the table.
"Resurrection of the dead is inherently counterintuitive. People with a little bit of rationality know that this is inappropriate. However, when faced with the death of a loved one and knowing that there is a way to resurrect, with a mixture of sadness and hope, it is often rare to be able to persist in doing so."
"What about Lord Lovett?"
As if by mistake, Kozuki Oden couldn't help but ask: "What do you think, Mr. Lovett?"
Aka wanted to frown, but saw Lovett raise his hand.
Under the nervous gazes of the father and daughter, Lovett's raised hand danced forward, pointing to the corner of the courtyard.
The two of them looked in the direction, only to find that there was nothing there.
Lovett pointed his finger down at zero, then lowered his head, and then they saw a nest of ants in the corner.
At this time, Lovett said softly: "Do humans care about the life and death of ants?"
"As long as it's not extinct or reincarnated, you shouldn't be interested in it, right?"
Kozuki Oden took a breath.
Even though he no longer needs to breathe!
Lovett was very kind. This was his first impression of Lovett.
Be strong and calm and don't bully the weak.
Even though he had absolute control, he was not asked to do anything excessive.
But now he understands that it is not the case at all!
His kindness, his calmness, and his refusal to bully the weak are the greatest contempt for them!
He is not even qualified to be treated as an enemy. In his eyes, ordinary people who live and die and change their fate are just as unimportant as ants reproducing a group. They are not on the same level at all!
If you're in a good mood, take care of it; if you're in a bad mood, ignore it.
What a terrible belief this is!
Kozuki Oden couldn't help but tremble.
He would rather be an enemy of the cruel Kaido than be friends with a guy who treats them like ants and is indifferent.
but……
"People always have to miss something to survive."
Lovett looked back at Oden, smiled, took back his hand and picked up the wine glass: "Isn't the shining point in your soul the spice of my life?"
In an instant, both of them were stunned at the same time!
Kozuki Oden turned to look at Hiyori in confusion, and suddenly smiled: "Well, in this case, it's actually good to be an ordinary person."
At least they still have family members worth missing, unlike the Black Earl, who lives with death.
"I always feel like...what have you misunderstood?"
"But it doesn't matter."
Lovett shook his head and stood up.
"That's enough small talk, it's time to stretch your muscles."
Aka also felt something and stood up to take a look.
The mansion they stayed in and Kaido's Prince Mei's mansion were separated from each other by the Shogun's Mansion, in order to reduce the number of times the two of them met and avoid causing a big mess, which was what Orochi wanted to see the most.
But obviously he was going to be disappointed.
At this moment, in the sky above the distant Prince Ming's mansion, the surging overlord-colored domineering energy stirred the wind and clouds, revealing a violent aura like a volcanic eruption.
"Black Count!!!"
The next second, with a resounding roar, the green dragon rose into the air and flew towards them...
No.
It was smashed!!
The angry Kaido's eyes were red, and his murderous aura was so strong that it almost turned into liquid, covering every scale on his body.
The residents of Flower City, who had just woken up from the domineering confrontation, were suddenly frightened and trembled in Kaido's rage.
call out!!!
The huge green dragon crashed like a mountain, bringing with it a strong wind.
It is conceivable that if this attack is carried out, no completed buildings will be left within a kilometer radius.
At this time, Kozuki Oden suddenly realized that he had lost control of his body. Before he could do anything, he turned into a ball of light and was put into a bottle by Aka.
"Ha! It seems you really don't want to give me face, Kaido."
He grabbed the crimson-eyed raven that was lying on the table and stuffed it into his body. With a clang, he pulled out the Blood Hell Knife from his cane. He held the cane in his left hand and the knife in his right hand, and the black flames on his body surged.
Noticing the weapon that glowed with blood, the anger in Kaido's eyes receded slightly, and his throat bulged.
