In the distance, in the corner where Kuleha was drinking alone.
Xia Qi came to her side with slow steps.
She casually snatched the wine from Kuleha's hand, took a big sip, and then said with a smile.
"Let's have a cigarette."
After she finished speaking, she took out a cigarette from her pocket and threw it to Kuleha.
Taking the tobacco, Kuleha lit it leisurely. When the smoke floated up, it merged with the cherry blossom-colored snowflakes in all directions.
Only then did Kuleha put the cigarette into her mouth.
"It's really unrealistically beautiful..."
She took a long drag on the cigarette, then looked up at the sky, motionless.
Looking at Kuleha beside her, Xia Qi curled her lips slightly.
"Occasionally, I feel sad when I'm alone.
Although that guy Rayleigh is still alive and kicking, he is already seventy-three.
How many more decades can he have?
How long will it take for me to completely lose him?
How should I face my future after losing him?
By then, can I still live as I do now?"
At this point, Xia Qi drank all the wine in the bottle, inserted the bottle into the snow on the side, covered the bottle with snow, and made a simple snowman.
In the wordless silence, pink snowflakes gradually covered the snowman, making the snowman that looked a little ugly just now turn into a cute one.
And Kuleha.
She slowly puffed out the smoke ring and then said casually.
"We can still live without the person who cherishes us. At worst, we can live like me...
Although, this kind of life always feels like something is missing, but..."
Kureha stretched out her hand and caught the falling snow. Seeing the snowflakes melting in her hands, Kureha grinned.
"As long as I can occasionally see some gifts.
Or occasionally think of someone?
Or...occasionally have a dream.
Isn’t this enough?”
After finishing her words, Kuleha threw the half-smoked cigarette to the ground.
"Tch, let's not talk about this anymore. In our eyes, the men outside are always domineering and arrogant. The more we look at them, the more pleasing they become.
But what we women will remember the most is the guy who has been with us the longest, always acting like a child around us, showing off his childishness and stupidity.
love?
It's long gone.
The rest is more like family affection..."
After saying that, Kuleha wore only her shirt, put her vest on her shoulders, and walked all the way down the mountain.
As she walked, she shook her head and said.
"I don't want to watch anymore, I don't want to watch anymore, the romance of living is beautiful, but the beauty of death..."
Those are all beautiful regrets.
Peony, do you want to drink two cups?"
"certainly."
Xia Qi nodded, and then walked in the direction of Kuleha. Before leaving, she patted the pink snowman on the head.
Even beautiful regrets cannot escape the fact.
That is, this regret is really beautiful...
…
At the same time, the center of the crowd in the distance.
With the story Chopper told, the crowd was still moved and unable to extricate themselves.
Of course, including Gawain himself, everyone with good enough knowledge and experience heard another story whispered by Robin!
They also heard the conversation between Kuleha and Xia Qi...
So, amid the moved cries of the general audience and children, Gao Wen sighed leisurely.
“The most beautiful scene of cherry blossoms….
It is indeed a beautiful scenery that can make people forget their regrets.
Chopper, your father Siruluk, at least in the last stage of his life, was a very admirable guy."
"Of course!"
Chopper wiped his tears with his little hoof and raised his head proudly.
"If Dad Siruluk lived till now,
He must have developed a panacea!"
"Um."
Gawain nodded, then patted Chopper on the back.
"It's a pity that he has left, so let's continue to work hard with his share."
"I will!"
Chopper nodded extremely seriously.
After Chopper agreed, Gawain put Chopper down from his back.
After he reached the snow, Gawain turned to the reporter in the distance and asked softly.
“Journalists, the scenery today is enough to make this trip worthwhile for you, right?
Therefore, you should have an idea of how to report next."
The moment these words fell, a large group of reporters immediately became full of energy. They nodded hurriedly and responded to Gawain in a chaotic manner.
"The Point Guard Is Here"
"I know, please rest assured Gao Wensheng!"
"Such a beautiful cherry blossom snow, we will record it well!"
"Sheng Gao Wen, today's Winter Island has become the most worth visiting country in the Grand Line!"
"Yes, we will follow the agreed rules and promote this place well to attract enough tourists..."
"Fart, when did we talk? We are reporters and we never record what we talk about!"
"Yes, it's all true. Do we need to fabricate such real beauty here?"
"And the touching story your pet told us, we will also record it in detail!"
"We want half the world to cry with us!"
"Yes, let's cry together!
!”
Accompanied by one sentence after another, the reporters seemed to have a unified opinion, but their opinions made Gawain feel meaningless.
After all, no matter how sentimental the farewell is, it is just one story after another in other people's mouths.
Many people listened to the story.
Who will remember?
Who would care?
Gawain shook his head gently, and walked down the mountain with lazy steps. As he walked, he waved his hand.
"Pink snow is very rare. If you like it, just stay on the mountain or go to the snowfield and play with your children.
What's the meeting time? It's three o'clock in the afternoon. Just be back on the ship before three o'clock."
After the words fell, Gawain slowly left, and Hancock, Gion, Robin, Big Bear, Shiliu and Crocodile followed in his footsteps.
Ace originally wanted to follow him, but even if it was pink snow, a straight man like him would only think it was ordinary. Just taking a look at it would be enough to satisfy him.
But Yinska was too determined to stay. Not only did she stay by herself, but she also dragged Ace to stay.
As for Rayleigh and Zefa...
Old people like them were the ones who were most deeply touched by Shilluk's story.
I saw him waving his hand to Gawain's back.
"Captain, let Xia Qi and Dr. Kuleha talk.
I and Zefa will have some fun with the children in the snow."
He wasn't worried that Gawain wouldn't hear, so he just saw him taking out a small table and a wine bottle.
"Godson, warm the wine!"
After shouting, Rayleigh and Zefa looked at each other.
While Ace was rolling his eyes, he was warming the wine for the old men with Shashao fruit.
The eyes of the two old men looking at each other, from the habitual confrontation at the beginning, gradually became gentler.
When the wine was warm, Ace was dragged by Yin Si to the side of the snow mountain to watch the pink color gradually covering the entire Ciggu Island.
Zefa finally reached out and picked up the cup in front of Reilly.
He knocked the cup against the steaming wine bottle.
"You've done more bad things, so pour the wine for me!"
"That's true."
Rayleigh smiled and poured a glass for Zefa, then filled it for himself and touched it with Zefa.
"If it were other generals, the corpses in their hands would not be much less than mine.
But you...brother Zefa.
You are a truly good person, and we pirates owe you... so much!"
After finishing his words, Rayleigh took a sip of wine.
"Ha~."
Breathing out a breath of warm wine, Rayleigh grinned.
"So, old guy, the guy who cut off your right hand, I will help you apply to our captain and try to kill him to avenge you!"
"snort!"
Listening to Rayleigh's words, Zefa shook his head disdainfully.
"Do you think this is really what I care about?
Compared with the hatred in the past, I want to cut off the wave of pirates more. Compared with killing a mere pirate, I want to kill the pirate in everyone's heart!
So, don’t mention him anymore!
Just Doflamingo, he is not worth our Blackbird's troubles!
If he were to be killed, little Gawain would face fear and pressure from the Five Old Stars.
Then do you think I will make it difficult for little Gawain?"
After finishing his words, Zefa took a sip of his wine, then turned to look at the pink sky.
While watching, Zefa couldn't help but said.
“Is there a panacea that can save a country?
Indeed, living in such magnificent scenery, even if the people still face the exploitation of Valpo, they can still experience the feeling of living in beauty.
What's more, Valpo has been punished by little Gawain on unfounded charges.
In this case, this scenery is enough to become the future pillar of this country.
Siruluk?
He is truly a romantic and great guy at the same time!"
…
…
…
On the Black Bird, not long after Gawain returned to the ship, he started practicing with Crocodile.
Facing Gawain at this moment...
Well, Crocodile was reduced to a beating.
On the one hand, Gawain's rapid progress after obtaining the Thunder Fruit made him the most troublesome existence among monsters.
On the other hand, under their feet was the Blackbird, which was not an open space where Crocodile could turn into sand to pave the way for his home court.
Just relying on the sand he turned into and his physical skills, he was no match for Gawain.
As for the poison on Crocodile's hook, he prepared it for Whitebeard. It was completely useless to Gawain, and even if it was useful, he would not dare to use it.
So, can he avoid being hanged?
After being beaten for half an hour, the two of them took a break and waited for Gawain to sit back on the beach chair and watch Gion and Hancock play shogi.
Franky has also rushed back from the mountain.
He held a bucket of water and said to Gawain.
"Giao!
Sir, the potion developed by Siruluk during his lifetime is truly miraculous. That bottle of potion actually lasted for half an hour without any signs of fading.
Although I don't know if this thing is permanent, but even if it is not permanent, the Drum Kingdom can also create new cherry blossom potions according to the formula and launch them into the sky to maintain the beautiful scenery.
As for the safety of these medicines..."
Frankie gave him a thumbs up.
"Not only do these chemicals have no impact on the water quality of Dongdao, they can even be used as light doses of nutrients.
All in all, these medicines are similar to the nutritional supplements that Dr. Kuleha gives you, but the dosage is quite low.
If this continues, maybe in a few decades, everyone living on Dongdao will be able to have a healthy body!"
"oh?"
After hearing Franky's words, Gawain looked over with interest.
"If this is the case, then it really deserves to be called a panacea. Hiruluk gave Chopper a promise, he gave Kuleha the doctor a beautiful view, and he also gave the people of Winter Island a health.
What a caring person!
Franky, reserve some more cherry blossom potion. If nothing happens, we can use the dancing powder prepared by Sand Crocodile together with the cherry blossom potion to carry out targeted rainfall on the Black Bird.
The Blue Wave series of super nutritional supplements produced by Dr. Kuleha are too expensive to produce, and the materials are not easy to collect, so it is difficult to install them.
This cherry blossom potion makes up for this very well!"
On the side, after hearing Gawain's words, Franky nodded clearly.
"Giao, my lord, Su Po is really awesome. Why didn't I think of using dancing powder to make artificial rainfall and snow?"
I’ll go get ready right now, haha!”
Amidst laughter, Franky returned to his laboratory. The people sent by the Blackbird to Vegapunk's hometown some time ago began to return one after another, and they brought with them a lot of experimental equipment used by Vegapunk in the early days.
Therefore, in the past few days, Franky has not only delved deeply into mechanics, he has also dabbled a little in genetics.
Although he doesn't seem to have any talent in genetics, after all, even Kuleha admires Franky's dissection skills.
It's very reasonable when you think about it. Franky is a terrifying existence where a man dissected himself and then turned him into a living robot.
It’s strange that a guy like him can’t dissect!
…
Time passed little by little, and Xia Qi and Kuleha, who finished drinking in an unknown tavern, finally returned to the Black Bird.
One after another, two old men, Lei Li and Zefa, also came back with their tired children.
When everyone was gathered, the time came to after three o'clock in the afternoon.
The Black Bird slowly raised its flag and left the island where countless people were looking at them.
For Gawain, the people of Winter Island have extremely complicated hearts.
After all, the big mountain that stands above them is Valpo.
Just because of Gawain's words, he disappeared from the throne of the king.
Although people were happy that Valbo got out, the power Gawain showed in this matter also made people have to be afraid.
On the other hand….
The more fearful Gawain is, the more he will make the people of Winter Island feel dependent.
When Gawain was around, the people of Winter Island almost no longer worried about their own lives, because the financial team led by Kalifa and the logistics team of Black Ice Platform led by Bruno taught the people of Winter Island a lot about business operations and planting respectively.
aspects of knowledge.
Don't ask why the Heibingtai logistics team knows how to plant.
It’s all the whale sharks who are the second-rate scoundrels at the bottom of the ocean!
In short, Gawain did not leave any supplies to the people of Winter Island, nor did he leave any money to the people of Winter Island.
He even transferred all the wealth accumulated by the kings and nobles of the Drum Kingdom to the Black Bird.
But he was very serious about leaving the means for the common people to lead a better life.
It's like teaching someone how to fish.
Noble money?
King's money?
What does that have to do with us people?
Therefore, the people of Winter Island are extremely grateful to Gawain.
This is the world of One Piece, this is not reality. In the world of One Piece, when you treat most people with kindness.uuReading www.uukanshu.com
This goodwill is often repaid sincerely.
However, Gawain came suddenly and left suddenly.
Therefore, the people of Dongdao had no choice but to cherish their nostalgia and silently wave their hands with Gawain's sailing ship.
When Gawain arrived, they knelt in the snow to greet him with numb faces.
When Gawain left, they stood in the snow with sad faces to say goodbye.
The change is just a few words.
Becoming is the fate of countless people and their lives.
And when such a scene was seen by Gawain...
On the side of the ship, looking at the crowd gradually disappearing, Gawain raised his right hand.
"Remember what they look like at this time, everyone!"
After the words fell, Gawain closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
"No matter what feat we plan to accomplish, we must clearly know what our goal is.
So, take a clear look at the people on the shore.
What they look like now is the reason why we fight for them!"
After speaking, Gawain put his hands on the side of the ship, while Big Bear and Robin beside him kept recording something.
While the two of them kept recording, the others looked towards the dock in the distance.
Kuleha sighed softly while holding her cigarette.
"I finally said goodbye..."
As she spoke, Kuleha put out her cigarette, raised her chin slightly, and then closed her eyes.
that's all…….
She caught the pink snow falling from the sky with her cheeks.
