[Oh no! I didn't keep an eye on Rebecca, and she sneaked out to play again!]
Oh no... I forgot to cook her sweet curry...
Scarlet looked as if she had just remembered, "I have a daughter."
Sig noticed Scarlet's nervousness, and judging from the reason for it, it was entirely due to her being a careless mother.
However, in terms of personality, although Scarlet can be a bit oblivious at times, such as falling in love with the Captain of the Guard, she is clearly not reckless.
Something seems off!
"Did you all just forget you have a daughter?" Sig asked, looking at the bushes where Rebecca was quietly moving.
Rebecca suddenly froze, realizing she had been exposed.
Kyros, his face darkening, dragged her out. Rebecca hung her head, not daring to say a word.
Violet suddenly realized, "Oh! Sister, you made spicy curry today, didn't you?"
Yes, Violet was very moved.
Ever since her older sister left the Royal Palace and learned to cook, she has loved her sister's spicy curry. However, since little Rebecca started eating solid food, she only gets sweet curry whenever she comes over.
I never imagined my status would rise so dramatically after I was gone for just a few days.
The older sister actually disregarded little Rebecca and cooked her own favorite spicy curry!
"So... did you all just forget you have a daughter?" Sig asked again.
Sig suspects that the memories related to Rebecca have been tampered with.
If Sig and Rebecca had highly related memories, they might be able to see something amiss, but... Sig and Rebecca had only met once, so they couldn't see anything unusual in their memories.
"Really! How could I possibly forget! Hehehe..." Scarlet looked visibly guilty.
Even without Sig, and even if Violet hadn't struck that incredibly lewd pose or activated her ability, it would still be obvious.
"Violet, you should go back to the Royal Palace quickly! Father will be worried when he finds out," Scarlet said righteously.
"No, no, no, even if we send your sister away now, the remaining portion is still spicy curry... Don't be so determined to force-feed spicy curry to a five-year-old," Sig reminded him from the side.
Scarlet was sweating profusely from the rebuke, thinking she had truly been "careless," Kyros had already noticed the problem!
"Rebecca, who did you go to play with today?" Kyros asked quickly.
This is definitely not a matter of carelessness!
Kyros recalled that during the day he had completely forgotten that he had a daughter and only remembered his wife...
Because the time was short, just a day of "forgetting his child," Kyros did not immediately notice the memory conflict, and only remembered it after finding Rebecca.
However, if Scarlet also forgot... the possibility of both of them simultaneously "forgetting their child" due to carelessness is obviously unlikely.
In particular, Kyros had seen, or rather, dreamt of, a "similar situation"!
Kyros was questioning Rebecca, but he warily kept glancing at Sig out of the corner of his eye. He noticed that Sig also seemed very concerned, which slightly reduced his suspicions.
After Kyros had never believed his previous dream, thinking it was something Sig had concocted to scare him. Now that a similar ability had suddenly appeared, his first thought was that Sig must have known about it.
"No, I didn't play with anyone!" Rebecca's lying manner was exactly the same as Scarlet's.
"Is it a little kid you haven't known for long?" Sig asked, his tone now more pointed.
Rebecca turned her head away, ignoring the Fish-Man, but Sig already knew the answer he wanted.
"Try using your abilities to see if you can find a little girl with green hair on the island," Sig immediately said to Violet.
Although Sig's Observation Haki has a considerable range, it is ultimately far less convenient than the "Glint-Glint Fruit" on an island with magnetic field interference.
Seeing Kyros's reaction, Violet realized that there might be a dangerous person who had been in contact with Rebecca. After Sig's reminder, she immediately activated the power of the Glint-Glint Fruit.
Sig then observed the abilities of the "Glint-Glint Fruit"...
Violet may indeed be able to "see things up to 4,000 kilometers away," but her effective vision certainly does not cover a radius of 8,000 kilometers.
Violet's brain processing capacity meant that she couldn't possibly take in such a vast range of scenery at once.
To reduce the load, she could only focus on a specific direction or location, ignoring other areas, or "reduce the resolution," otherwise the video would lag noticeably.
When Rebecca saw that Sig had even mentioned "green hair," she tried to stop him, but couldn't find the words.
After all, she had promised her "new friend" that she wouldn't tell anyone about her... Huh? New friend? What new friend? She just went out and had a blast all day!
Sig noticed Rebecca's emotional change, quickly corrected his memory, and then said to Violet, "Quick! Search around... and especially search Tesoro's mansion, see if there's a moving toy doll or puppet!"
In that instant, Rebecca lost all memory of her "new friend," and even Sig's initial suspicion that Sugar was present vanished.
However, firstly, Sig already had some knowledge of memory, and secondly, Sig only lost the memory of "doubting Sugar" that had just arisen, but not the memory of "knowing that Sugar was a character in the original One Piece" before he transmigrated. Therefore, Sig immediately corrected his memory!
They deduced that Sugar must have turned herself into a doll to make everyone forget her...
The power of the Hobby-Hobby Fruit, once used on oneself, will also be the best "concealment" ability.
Sig then discovered the blind spot of the Hobby-Hobby Fruit —the memories altered were directed at "Sugar," and the memories of the anime and manga he watched before his transmigration would not disappear.
After all, the Sugar in the anime and manga and the Sugar in this world can only be described as "related," not the same concept.
Therefore, Sig, who also possesses a certain degree of authority over "memory," even if his strength in this aspect is not as great as Sugar's, can still use this subtle error to correct his memory at any time!
Although Violet didn't understand what moving dolls and such were all about, she still instinctively did as she was told—it was a very exciting thing!
"Ah! There's a green-haired adult woman, and she has a moving rag doll in her room!" Violet spotted her target at Tesoro's place.
