Chapter 108: Those who return and those who flee (1)
Mingyue of the Great Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/ The latest work of the great master Xiangnan Xiaoxiaosheng!.
Before, Doflamingo did not take other pirates in the North Sea seriously. Whether the existence of the Komodo pirates was destroyed, he did not think it would have any impact on his plan, but the fact was not the case.
The timing was too wrong. The Navy's attention was attracted when Dover wanted the least. At least Lieutenant General Crane has begun to approach Don Quixote again.
As a result, Qiubai used his own personal experience to tell a very philosophical truth... the world is universally connected.
In the North Sea, the pirate ship miss Labudaku... translated as Miss Duck, which is the fancy and coquettish pirate ship of Doflamingo.
"Spot the ship is approaching! Be sure to fight... No, cancel the alert, your own people."
The notice from the watchtower changed because the small boat approaching was hanging from Don Quixote's pirate flag. More importantly, the three people who appeared in the telescope's vision were extremely familiar.
"Notify Lord Torrepol, the cadres returned."
The two cadres who left the family for quite some time and went to perform the "confidential" mission finally returned.
The boat slowly approached the side of the pirate ship, and then the soft ladder was released.
Peibo carried Qiubai on his back, and Ain followed behind him and climbed up one after another.
At this time, the family cadres led by Doflamingo were already waiting on the deck. Although there was no exaggerated thing like the "return welcome ceremony", at least the attitude should be expressed.
They are a "family", right? Although Qiubai feels abnormally ironic at this moment, this "scene" is still necessary.
"Dofer, everyone...we're back." Qiubai's face showed off from one side of Peibo's shoulder, his face was smiling.
"……Thanks for your hard work."
After dozens of seconds of silence, Dover finally said these words in a low and calm voice.
From Meugalapas, to climbing the upside down mountain and entering the East China Sea, to the great route, and finally returning to the North China Sea, encountered the attack of the Komodo Pirates and then "attacked back". After a brief cultivation, he returned to the family. When he left, he was at the end of 1506, and now it was almost the end of 1507.
Although most of the time consumed is a peaceful sailing, serious incidents have occurred several times, but is the evaluation received only hard?
However, Qiubai was not dissatisfied with anything. Anyway, he had never served Doflamingo wholeheartedly from beginning to end.
At this time, Ain took a few steps forward, walked to Dover, and handed over a strange-smelling fruit.
"As a result, all we brought back was the childish fruit. As for the mermaid matter... I am very sorry, I failed."
Doflamingo took the devil fruit with one hand, and then raised it high towards the sun as if he was telling the authenticity of the banknote.
"The mermaid thing... can only be said to be a very, very regretful thing, but it is good to be able to escape from the pirate group of fishmen. Fishmen have always been inconscientious to humans, especially humans who are taking action against their fellow races. They probably did not realize that this is one of the reasons why their race is regarded as a 'wild beast' by humans..."
"More importantly, no matter what fallacy occurs in the middle, it can be completely erased after defeating the Komodo Pirates with one's own strength."
As he spoke, it seemed that the authenticity of the devil fruit had been verified. He took his hand back... From his attitude, he seemed to feel nothing else, and the above words were all from his heart.
"Hey, I'm looking at it with admiration. With your strength, I'm quite curious about how you do that. The pirates with a reward of 200 million are not the opponents you can deal with." Torrepole had a crystal clear sticky object like jelly on his nose, and then he brought his big face over.
"To be honest, I don't know how I did it, otherwise I wouldn't have fallen into this miserable situation now." Qiu Bai responded with a silly and cute attitude, "But for Tang Jikede, 'Eye for Eye' is inevitable, right? I was just thinking about this at that time."
Qiu Bai's serious injury at this time is a level that everyone can barely accept after feeling such a thing. If he returns without anything after killing Komodo, he will come back like that, that is truly unacceptable.
It is precisely because of this reason that Qiubai did not ask Ain to retreat to his young state. Firstly, because the regression was only a temporary measure and would not solve the problem. Once the ability was lifted, he would still be seriously injured. Secondly, he was more serious, just to show Doflamingo.
It is probably impossible to create a heroic image of desperate efforts for the family, but he can at least add points in this way.
"No matter what, your performance is above my expectations. Maybe I can hand over a more important task to you in the future. Recover the injury quickly. We will have big moves in the near future." Doflamingo even patted Qiubai's shoulder, which made the latter look grinning.
This sentence is half true and half false. Dover probably won't let Qiubai do anything alone in the future. However, Qiubai's previous performance is indeed above his expectations. Dover originally thought that facing an enemy like Komodo, Qiubai's murder was the most likely result, and the best result was just a hurry to escape, but the fact was too unexpected to him.
Even if Qiu Bai only got the power to defeat the Komodo Pirates in an instant, he could look forward to such explosive power in some cases.
But no matter what, Qiubai's biggest problem is to recover his health as soon as possible.
So although it was a "long-term reunion", Qiubai needed "rest and rest", so the conversation or greeting between him and Dover was not long, and what he was facing was a comprehensive physical examination of the medical workers on board.
Perhaps the result of this diagnosis is also needed by Doflamingo. On the one hand, he can confirm the "real" situation of the battle at that time based on Qiubai's injuries, and on the other hand, he must determine whether the serious injury will have any lifelong adverse effects on this "excellent" subordinate.
If he unfortunately suffered from symptoms such as hemiplegia... Well, in short, the laws of the pirate world are very cruel, and the attitude towards valuable subordinates and worthless subordinates is impossible to be the same.
What determines how Doflamingo treats Qiubai in the future is not in a sense what he has done before, but whether he can still play a role in the future.
Of course, there is actually nothing to worry about. Although it is so miserable, Qiubai will not have any problems...
