Pure gold?
Alukemi?
Bazel was stunned for a while, and a scene from the theater version of the movie called Heart of Gold suddenly appeared in the back of his mind.
No wonder I think that girl looks very familiar.
Mishkina Olga!
Her father Ahiye was the alchemical scientist who created pure gold.
"Little Olga, it's me. Didn't we meet in Alukemi two hundred years ago? Your family entertained me warmly at that time."
Tianyue squatted in front of Olga, pointed at herself, and introduced excitedly.
“Are you...?”
Olga blinked, looking confused.
"What a strange woman, but I feel her face is so familiar. Hmm, I'd better think about how to escape first."
"This group of people should be poor pirates, and they probably don't have any treasure or food, tut."
Olga squatted with her head in her arms. Defense: "It hurts, what are you doing with bird wings!?"
Put away the knife, Jhin said expressionlessly: "You said what was in your heart, idiot."
"Ah, that's it, I'm sorry."
After subconsciously bending down to apologize, an idea flashed in Olga's mind.
Suddenly stood up and looked at Tianyue.
"I remembered! It's you, Sister Shi! I haven't seen you for a long time!!"
A weird laugh came from the girl's mouth.
As the two girls, one big and one small, hugged each other, Jhin walked to Bazel.
"Mr. Kaido, we are an acquaintance, what should we do now?"
"What should we do, of course, join the Beast Pirates, oooooooo!!"
Kaido, who was flying in the sky, laughed boldly.
"My pirate group is in a period of exhaustion, and now is the time to be short of people!"
"Kaido,"
"Bazel, who had been silent for a while, suddenly spoke up and mentioned the legendary object.
"I have heard of the legend of Alukemi and pure gold."
Pure gold...
"Ah, I actually know about that legend. That bastard Rocks had the idea of pure gold back then."
Kaido lowered his flying altitude to prevent the low temperature at high altitude from freezing the only woman in the group.
"Why, Bazel, are you also interested in pure gold and infinite lifespan?"
"No, Kaido, what I'm interested in is not that boring thing."
"Endless lifespan is not happiness. For people with infinite lifespans, this sea and sky...are prisons of freedom."
Bazel sat down cross-legged, with a playful smile on his face that Jhin couldn't understand.
"Kaido, I remember that you wanted to create a pirate group composed of animal-type ability users, right?"
The dragon's head shook slightly: "What does this have to do with pure gold?"
"Since that man can create pure gold, a treasure that only exists in legends, this alone is enough to show his talent."
"Kaido, you mentioned before that Rocks said that Devil Fruits are treasures of desire that only exist in fantasy, right?"
Kaido said so.
"Human desires give birth to demons, and the waves of the times make demons a reality. In this case, can I understand that devil fruits are actually the product of human beings' stubborn fantasies?"
"Legends of liberation fighters occasionally spread in the new world..."
"I know this legend." Jhin suddenly interrupted, "I believe Mr. Kaido must be the liberation fighter who changed the world!" Continued explanation:
"There are various theories about the birth of the liberation fighters, but the one I heard---"
[The slaves were unwilling to be enslaved. They prayed to the sun, hoping that a god would bring laughter and freedom. At this point, the liberation fighter Nika was born]
h "If this statement is true, it also shows in disguise that Devil Fruit is actually the aggregation of most human desires."
h "It is also the so-called belief."
"As long as people's faith reaches a certain level, the things they pray for will turn into a devil fruit, and then bring about changes in the sea."
Hearing that it has nothing to do with pure gold, Kaido couldn't help but asked in confusion:
"What does this have to do with pure gold?"
"Myskina Ahiye, the alchemist scientist who created pure gold, proved the existence of desire with facts."
· "Ashi, you just told me the purpose of Ahiye's creation of pure gold, right?"
· Shi Shi was stunned when she hugged Olga's Tianyue. When did she tell Lord Bazer this, and why didn't she remember?
But this silence was misunderstood by Kaido as acquiescence.
"With the help of the science and technology of the time and the strong desire to cure her daughter's disease, Ahiye created pure gold and used it to suppress her daughter's illness."
h Not my father, that money-grubbing guy is not doing it for me! "
"Olga, that's not the case, Ahiye is a qualified father."
Tianyue sighed, apologized to Kaido and Jhin, and walked aside with Olga in his arms.
"Things like pure gold can be made. I want to know if he can make a machine that collects human desires."
"Collecting human desires?" Wrinkled: "Bazel, what exactly do you want to do?"
"No, Abel, I understand."
Kaido's dragon eyes flashed with a glint of light, but more of it was excitement.
!
「Wait!」
Jhin's expression changed drastically. This world can be called... no, there are only two races that have the name of gods.
One is the race to which he belongs, the people of the moon, the Lunaria tribe.
The other one is the current Tianlong!
"Eight years ago in the Valley of the Gods, the Rocks Pirates were not simply trying to get back the treasure stolen by the World Government."
Kaido's voice became deeper and deeper.
"Whether it's me, Lingling or Newgate, we all know this."
"Rocks didn't tell us the real reason, and even disappeared quietly the first time we landed in the Valley of the Gods."
"We don't know what he went to do, which also led to the final collapse of the leaderless Rocks Pirates."
"We scattered and evacuated, forming our own pirate groups to collect treasures."
"But, I remember Rocks once said it when he was drunk."
Him A memory picture appeared in Kaido's mind.
【Rocks (drunk): Guys, One Piece is so boring. I want to become the king of the world! 】
【I want to take away everything from the king, I want to become the master of this world! ! ! 】
【The West Sea, the Valley of the Gods, there is everything I want. Let's set out. It's time to make a break with that so-called king! 】
【After the words fell, Locks's eyes suddenly became clearer, and he hurriedly continued:】
【How dare you snatch the pirates' treasure and let them see the power of the world's strongest pirate group! 】
【Everyone in the Rocks Pirates cheered excitedly. 】
【……】
The memory picture disappears.
… Rocks knew that the King of the World was in the Valley of the Gods eight years ago. We don't know the source and authenticity of this information, but the Rocks Pirates were dispatched. "
Seeming to be worried about Bazel's suspicion, Kaido then added a sentence affirming Rocks' character.
"Rocks is a member of the D family, he will not lie."
"We did not see the so-called King of the World, but I saw the devil, and Lingling also saw it."
Recalling the old man he met when snatching the Blue Dragon Fruit, Kaido's eyes couldn't help but become a little gloomy.
The Five Old Stars, Saint Jaygolusia Satan!
The devil who withstood Lingling's full blow head-on, but recovered completely in just one breath!
That monster came out of the dark magic circle with the number "5" engraved on it!
"If the machine that you mentioned about Bazel that can collect desires can really appear, and that machine can successfully transform human desires into reality..."
Jhin's eyes widened to their maximum size due to excessive shock.
"Hey, Mr. Kaido, if this matter is known to the world government, we will definitely be surrounded and suppressed by the world's strongest team, right?!"
Kaido flew in silence for a while before his unbridled laughter spread again.
"That's what makes it interesting, Abel, ugh!"
"Bazel, go ahead and do it, I will never let anyone take you away!"
"It's time for this sea to change. What Rocks can't accomplish, I'll do it!!"
