The Unforgiven in Shinigami, Chapter 68: The Box "Who... did you bring money?"
The doctor asked cautiously.
The group exchanged bewildered glances. After all, they were high-ranking CP9 agents; why should they be concerned with such trivial matters as money?
Besides, back at their own headquarters, their food, drink, and other necessities were all provided by Enies Lobby, so their money would be of no use whatsoever.
"Ahem, although you didn't bring any money, I can still treat you first..."
Despite their disheveled appearance and numerous injuries, the aura of their expertise was still undeniable.
In addition, since they were all dressed in black suits, they didn't look like good people at all, and the hospital was afraid that these people would go on a killing spree here.
"No!"
The menacing-looking Jabra stepped forward.
"Paying for treatment is the hospital's rule, and we have no reason to break it arbitrarily."
"Please help them arrange hospital beds; we'll raise the money immediately."
While the still unconscious Lucci and Kumadori placed in the hospital, the other CP9 members embarked on a journey to raise money.
"Watch the show! The wolf jumps through a ring of fire!"
After splitting up, several CP9 members started exploring various ways to make money.
Blueno used the Door-Door Fruit to create a ring of fire that seemed to burn out of thin air, and Jabra, who transformed into a big gray wolf, was the performer jumping through the fire ring.
"The giraffe slide, only 10 Belly per ride..."
Kaku, transformed into a giraffe, serves as a toy, while the Kog'Maw Fukurou is the ticket seller.
" Soap Sheep Cloud " Great Tsunami!
The overflowing soap bubbles covered the entire street, and a simple mop sweep made everything look brand new.
Soon, coins and damp Belly were collected and sent to the hospital.
I appreciate your kind gesture!
The gray-haired old doctor nodded vigorously. With just a casual examination, he had already gleaned a great deal of information from the two patients, such as their well-developed muscles and their wounds, some old and some new.
All of this demonstrates that this group of people are ruthless and skilled killers.
They are powerful beings who can arbitrarily control the lives of ordinary people, and even everything else.
But this group of experts did not steal, rob, use force to coerce, or make fierce threats. Instead, they quietly raised money to treat their companion using the most ordinary means.
"I swear on my life as a doctor that I will heal your companion."
"Call,"
Several soaking wet figures sat at the hospital entrance, Jabra grinned.
"I thought you were going to borrow money from some kind people."
That's a crime.
"We represent justice..."
"Ha ha ha ha,"
Upon hearing Kaku's earnest reply, Jabra burst into laughter.
"But others don't think that way, they don't see it that way. In their eyes, we are just the government's lackeys, and now we are even more like stray dogs abandoned by our masters."
"No matter what others think or how they see it, our hearts will always be set on justice."
"Fool,"
Jabra grinned, revealing a ferocious, predatory look.
"You actually still believe in justice?"
"Chatterbox, just now Jabra performed a wolf jumping through a ring of fire to raise money."
"Shut up, Fukurou, how would you know?"
Faced with the furious Jabra, Blueno, who looked like an honest man, calmly spoke up.
"I said it."
??
"You bastard..."
Hahahaha.
On a rainy night, Los Lobos experts sat under the eaves of a hospital and burst into laughter.
A few days later, everyone had almost fully recovered.
With their strength, they could make a good living even by doing manual labor. The CP9 members could work and earn money while waiting for their leader, Rob Lucci, to recover. Such a life seemed pretty good.
"You're finally awake?"
The doctors at the hospital were incredulous at Lucci's recovery. He had suffered ruptured internal organs, heart and lung failure, and more than a dozen broken ribs, yet this man covered in wounds had miraculously pulled through.
Compared to such a medical the Miracle, the rapid recovery of another withered person after receiving a large amount of nutrient solution seems insignificant.
"Doctor, thank you..."
"You should thank your partners; they raised money for your treatment and stayed by your side through thick and thin."
One day later,
"Let's go bowling to celebrate our eldest son's discharge from the hospital!"
Everyone celebrated Lucci's recovery with great joy, but for these superhumans to play the games of ordinary people was a disaster.
boom.
The bowling ball was thrown with the force of a cannonball by Kalifa, the weakest of the group, instantly smashing through the bowling alley and making the other CP9 members laugh.
"Control yourself, control yourself! Kalifa, we're normal people now."
"Help!!"
?
"Pirates! Pirates have landed!"
"Where's the navy? Where's the police?!"
"They're all wiped out. It was the Candy Pirates with a bounty of 60 million. Our town is finished..."
Splash!
Let's go.
The members of CP9 silently got up and walked towards the dock.
"Hahaha, this town is mine now!"
The captain of the Candy Pirates, wielding a large sword, loudly announced that beneath his feet lay the corpses of Marines and police, as well as weeping ordinary people.
"I'm going to take everything!"
Bang!
With his body wrapped in bandages and a pigeon perched on his shoulder, Lucci killed the pirate captain, who was known for his "60 million bounty," with a single flying kick.
Who is it?
"Captain... this is impossible!"
"Don't be afraid, brothers, let's attack together!!"
Facing the swarming pirates, the CP9 members silently met them.
"Big brother, you can do it!"
"Hero, take them down!"
Crackling sounds filled the air; it was a one-sided battle, or rather, a massacre.
"Oh, how scary..."
"Don't look, go home quickly."
"Blood, corpse..."
"Oh, looks like we went a little too far."
Garaka stepped on a head embedded in a pool of blood, then glanced back at the cowering townspeople behind him.
People used to call him "Uncle Beard," but now, wherever his gaze swept across, the crowd scattered and retreated.
"This small town,"
Lucci glanced calmly behind him; he'd seen this kind of scene many times before.
"We can't stay here any longer."
"Let's go. We are the justice of darkness, and we have never dared to dream of the applause of heroes."
That's true.
They are killers lurking in the shadows, so naturally they won't receive flowers or praise.
"Elder sister,"
Kalifa was walking at the back, turned around and saw a little girl standing on tiptoe, holding a wildflower from the roadside in her hands.
"Thank you for saving me, and also for saving my mother and everyone else."
"Thanks,"
Kalifa knelt down to take the wildflowers, intending to pat the other person's head, but then noticed her hands were covered in blood.
But that's enough. This wildflower is the greatest compliment CP9 can give.
At least the smiles on everyone's faces now are genuine!
Let's go.
The CP9 crew, having boarded the Candy Pirates ' ship and torn off all the pirate flags and symbols, prepared to head to their next destination: their hometown.
"It's been so long since I've been back. I wonder how the teacher is doing?"
"Hmph, beating you down will definitely not be a problem."
Kaku, now recovered, started bickering with Jabra again. The group of people noisily arrived at the dilapidated old tower next to their hometown, looking down at a group of children training and their teacher.
Justice will always exist; it will always exist in our hearts.
"Passed down from generation to generation, the Great Pirate Era will surely come to an end. One day, the world will usher in peace and will no longer need assassins like us. Even if our hands are stained with blood, we will gladly accept it."
The ruthless CP9 are nothing more than a group of naive people with a heart full of justice.
?!
It seems we have guests arriving; we can't let them disturb our hometown.
On the coast, a naval warship was anchored, led by Marine Headquarters Captain Berry Good, a user of the Berry-Berry Fruit.
"Search, the CP9 members are here."
"Keep the change, please,"
In the jungle, the shadows of various animals were cast: leopards, wolves, giraffes, minotaurs, lions, Fukurou, and even Kalifa's bubble sheep...
"Small!"
crackling sounds
Although Berry Good's strength is not weak, and his subordinates are elite marines.
However, when faced with the entire CP9, he only struggled for a few seconds before the poor Berry Good was quickly turned into a pile of round balls on the ground.
" Lucci, Den Den Mushi."
As the Den Den Mushi connected, Spandam's signature voice came from the other end, his body riddled with broken bones, resembling a deformed monster, and his face swollen like a pig's head.
"Who?"
"Rob Lucci, your former subordinate."
??!!
" Spandam, we will be back."
!!??
Click,
The Den Den Mushi hung up, leaving Spandam huddled in his hospital bed, trembling with fear.
"Damn it, are those assassins still alive?"
"Hmm, this ship is nice."
After boarding a naval warship, Lucci and his crew nodded in satisfaction. They would never have wanted to ride on a pirate ship unless absolutely necessary.
"Let's go, we're about to embark on our escape."
On the shore, scattered like spheres, lay the unconscious Captain Berry Good and numerous naval soldiers, along with a wildflower buried in the earth, swaying in the wind.
"I caught one!"
"I caught a super fat shark!"
What is deadly to ordinary people is nothing more than a harmless toy in Luffy's hands.
"Another one... this time it's a shark."
In the aquarium's lounge, Robin was sipping coffee, looking completely relaxed.
Shiraishi laughed, "The sharks have begun their hunt."
"Those idiots..." Sanji stood outside the fish tank, speechless.
"Hey! Did you guys see that shark? It's pretty fat, isn't it?!"
Luffy and Usopp rushed into the room together, shouting in unison.
Robin smiled indulgently and said, "Yes, I see it, but all the fish we caught before are gone!"
"What?!"
Luffy and Usopp looked into the tank, they saw that the shark was still wrapped in a napkin, holding a knife and fork in both hands, burping, and its belly was round and full.
Sanji said speechlessly, "Don't you know the simple fact that sharks eat small fish?"
"Damn it! We're eating this guy tonight, Sanji, roast this stupid shark!"
Luffy was furious. He had caught and eaten those fish himself, and now this shark had gotten them for free.
"Wait a minute, you're such an amateur! This fish is perfect for sushi, soup, or something spicy and sour. Deep-frying would be good too!"
Sanji thought for a moment and said.
"Yeah, talking about it makes me hungry," Luffy nodded and said.
Shiraishi didn't find shark meat particularly delicious. He was pondering that the ship's compass was originally pointing towards Fish-Man Island, but if nothing unexpected happened, they would soon run into the infamous shut-in and tomb raider of the pirate world.
Stepping stone, Moonlight Moria!
Please forgive Shiraishi for referring to Moria as a stepping stone; after all, most other characters at least have a generally accepted title, such as Sand Crocodile, Empress, Knight of the Sea, or Heavenly Demon...
The only exception Moria. In Shiraishi's memory, this guy only seemed to have the label of the Seven Warlords of the Sea when he first appeared.
Moonlight is probably a surname.
Adding to his record since his debut, he lost to Luffy, lost to Jinbe came ashore, lost to...
After the Summit War, the World Government thought his strength was too weak and told Mingo to just kill him to save face for the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
In the fanfiction community surrounding Shiraishi's past life, Moria was a boss or elite monster that various protagonists could solo, someone who could be killed with a single move.
If I were to exchange a few more blows with Moria, I'd completely lose all my class and be too ashamed to show my face in public.
Of all the powerful figures Luffy has encountered since entering the Grand Line, Moria is arguably the most pathetic.
He looked up and said, "Isn't shark meat hard to eat?"
"That's not the case. As long as you cook it properly, there won't be any problems."
Sanji answered confidently.
"Um?"
Zoro, who was on lookout duty, spotted something floating on the sea and shouted through the Den Den Mushi, "Watch out! Something's floating towards us at sea!"
What is it? What is it?
"A wooden barrel?! Look!! There are words written on it!!"
Upon hearing the announcement, everyone went up to the deck and retrieved the wooden barrels floating on the sea.
"Could it be... something that fell off the treasure ship?!" Luffy exclaimed excitedly.
"It's a treasure?!" Usopp and Chopper exclaimed excitedly.
Nami walked over and poured cold water on the three of them, saying, "Unfortunately, this contains alcohol and dry rations."
"How would you know if you didn't even look!"
Luffy pouted, looking quite unconvinced.
Nami smiled broadly and said, "Isn't this written as 'Poseidon's Treasure Offering'? This is called a drifting barrel, which is an offering made to the Poseidon by people to pray for a smooth voyage. 'Treasure Offering' means to honor the god."
"What... then what's the point of retrieving it?!" Luffy looked genuinely bored.
Zoro said with interest, "Isn't there sake inside? Let's drink some!"
"Idiot! Aren't you afraid of divine retribution?!" Usopp shouted.
Nami laughed and said, "You can drink it after just one prayer."
Zoro retorted firmly, "I would never pray to God!"
Shiraishi laughed, " Usopp, we beat the Sky Island god to Sky Island, what are we afraid of!"
Finally, except for Zoro, Shiraishi, Unohana, they all prayed and then opened the barrel.
But when it was opened, the barrel contained not wine, but a signal flare.
Soaring upwards, illuminating the entire sky.
