Pirate Bloody Hand Mary

Chapter 73: The mystery of life experience

What CP0 said just now made Mary feel for the first time that her life experience might not be simple.

If this is the case, then some of your plans may need to change. If the identity and background of the predecessor are not small, the involvement will be huge.

...But if you think about it, the people who can know CP0 may not be ordinary people.

Let’s first summarize some of the information currently available:

First of all, when I first crossed over, my predecessor died in the East China Sea. The cause of death was that he was shipwrecked and starved to death on a desert island.

Second, the awareness of one’s own predecessor. In the case of the Trinity, although Mary cannot directly know the information of the predecessor's will, through the changes in the mental landscape, Mary can simply guess that the consciousness of the original owner is a relatively holy and kind character.

...If you want to make an analogy, it’s a bit like a nun?

Third, just now CP0 said that she was once... his subordinate?

Mary narrowed her eyes slightly.

CP0’s boss?

But Mary was a helpless girl in her past. How could she be CP0's boss?

No, if we relax the structure, not only people within the CP0 system can be CP0's bosses.

If you think about it carefully, there is another type of person who is CP0's immediate boss.

The female CP0 just called herself... [Master]?

Celestial Dragons.

This time, there was no aura from the blue pheasant, but Mary's face turned pale, and a terrible and horrifying idea emerged in her mind, making her sweat uncontrollably.

More than a month ago, when Mary met Pluto in Alabasta, something Pluto said came to mind.

"You have a familiar scent on your body"?

Hey hey, isn't it...

Mary stood up slowly, walked to the bathroom, and looked at herself in the mirror.

"Dragon people?"

She slowly stroked her cheek, and the familiar appearance before seemed extremely strange now.

Isn't this a bit too incredible? Apart from anything else, how many Celestial Dragons can be so beautiful?

Not to mention his current appearance that has been transformed by the Fruit of Desire, just the way he looked when he just traveled through time, how many Celestial Dragons can look so handsome?

No, that's not right, not all Celestial Dragons are like fat pigs. Not to mention the Nefertari family who broke away from the Draco from the beginning, but the descendants of the Don Quixote family who have withdrawn from Mariejoia in recent years, Doflamingo and Corazon are both top-notch handsome men. .

In other words, not all Celestial Dragons are ugly.

"..."

Mary's expression suddenly became heavy.

From now on, she will need to make two plans for her future development plan.

If my life experience is really so bizarre...a Celestial Dragon, then the scope involved is too wide.

She suddenly became foggy. If she is not a Celestial Dragon, what is Mary's identity that can serve as CP0's boss and make Pluto feel familiar?

If she was a Celestial Dragon, why did Mary appear in the East China Sea, drift into the sea with a sallow complexion, and finally die in a shipwreck?

And what was the agreement that the female CP0 said before with him [the master]?

"Grass."

Mary, who had always tried to look as well-educated as possible, finally couldn't help but curse.

My head hurts and I feel like I'm going to explode.

Her eyes glanced toward the bathtub.

Logically speaking, since she was feeling so uncomfortable right now, taking a bath would be the first option she would think of. But now Mary has a little fear of the bathtub in this dormitory.

I've only taken two baths, and something happened every time.

Is there some force that doesn't allow her to take a bath?

She stood in the bathroom with a troubled expression.

In the room next to hers, Qingzhi slowly regained his domineering attitude, breathed a sigh of relief, lay down on the bed again, and put on a blindfold.

Fortunately, the matter did not develop to the most serious situation, and the two did not break out into a fierce conflict.

However, Aokiji also heard clearly the conversation between Mary and Erga just now.

"Subordinate? Amnesia?..."

Aoki murmured these words in a low voice, then narrowed his eyes decisively.

Let's talk to Marshal Warring States about these things some other time when we have time. He is sleepy now and doesn't want to work or use his brain.

He can think through many joints, but - why should he think about it?

sleep.

…

"Hula."

Mary sat up from the bed with a head of hair like a chicken coop and thick dark circles under her eyes, her face looking extremely haggard.

She didn't fall asleep last night, so that's it. The problem was that she was nervous all the time, fearing that a few uninvited guests would break into the room while she was sleeping.

Moreover, the mystery of her life experience has been lingering in her mind, making Mary think hard about these things all night.

The power of the Life Fruit made Mary not physically tired, but her spirit was now so tired that she wanted to kill a few pirates to vent her anger.

She flew out of bed, put on her clothes with a sullen face, and after briefly tidying up her appearance, she opened and closed the door resolutely, flew downstairs, and headed straight to the Central Building.

She already remembered where Seng Guo's office was, and she wanted to go to Seng Guo for an explanation this time.

Apart from anything else, Mary would not allow CP0 to enter and leave the navy dormitory at will without Sengoku's permission.

To put it bluntly, General Qing Pheasant lives next door. The Aoki Pheasant had no reaction to the murderous aura it erupted yesterday. If Warring States hadn't given it in advance, the Aoki Pheasant would have been even more aggressive than Kizaru.

At least Kizaru has taken advantage of the situation, and even a supernova on the Chambord Islands has no moisture.

Her light-like figure immediately attracted the attention of many people. A flash of sword light made Mary shrink back, her body suddenly froze, and she looked at the person in front of her who was blocking her with a knife.

Wearing a peach-colored tight-fitting suit and hip-hugging shorts, he had a rather gentle hairstyle on his head, but he still had a heroic look between his brows.

The cloak of justice draped behind her made Mary immediately realize the identity of this person.

Candidate for general...Momo Usagien?

"Young navy, please restrain your strength a little in the headquarters, otherwise it will be bad if you bump into others."

Gion said to Mary with a smile, with a hint of dissuasion in his tone.

Mary frowned, restrained her anger a little, pressed her eyebrows and said:

"Sir, lieutenant general, I have something to report to the Warring States Marshal, so time is tight. Please forgive me."

Gion was slightly startled, and reported to the Warring States Marshal?

The military rank on this uniform is not the standard military rank of the navy at all, but more like a symbol of the unruly navy's style, so Gion is not clear about Mary's identity. Although Gion also read the newspaper, she only used it to understand the general situation because she had always been busy with official duties. She did not observe the specific things in detail.

Therefore, although Gion looked familiar to Mari, she did not recognize Mari's identity immediately.

Just when she was about to ask for more information, an experienced and steady voice came from behind Gion.

"Are you planning to go to Sengoku about CP0?"

Mary was slightly startled when she heard this.

How do you know this?

Gion also obviously had a look on his face, turned sideways, and an old woman appeared behind her.

She smiled kindly and nodded to Mary.

"Hello, I'm He. A young navy man is busy with affairs during the Warring States Period. I'm afraid if you go to him now, his answer won't satisfy you. Why don't you come and sit here with me?"

"Haha, don't worry, if you tell me these things, the effect will be the same as telling me about the Warring States Period."

Mary's heart tightened as she looked at Crane.

I don’t know why, although Crane’s eyes were calm, Mary could always feel that she could penetrate her thoughts.

Standing in front of the crane, Mary felt like her whole body was being exposed and there was no secret at all.

However, the other person was in a high position and was still smiling at her. Although Mary felt uncomfortable, she couldn't refuse it outright.

"Oh well."

Mary nodded.

…

"So, are you questioning why Sengoku let CP0 enter your dormitory so easily?"

He asked gently as he sat on the chair and took a sip of tea with a smile.

"Indeed." Mary, who was sitting on another chair, nodded. "If I remember correctly, the CP agency and the Navy are two different organizations. Logically speaking, this kind of thing shouldn't happen."

Crane shook his head and said:

"Mary, you don't know something. The Navy is an institution under the jurisdiction of the World Government, and the same is true for the CP. But there is a very special force in the CP, CP0. In addition to working for the World Government, they are more of a crony of the Celestial Dragons. nourish."

"Do you know what a Celestial Dragon is?"

Having said this, He stared at Mary closely, wanting to see any change in her expression.

"……I know."

Mary's face looked slightly ugly.

Crane nodded and continued:

"The CP0 who came to you this time was directly ordered by the Tianlong people. He named him and wanted to come to you, and the Warring States Period couldn't stop him. If you think about it, you who can make a living on the sea, you don't know the reason."

Crane gradually stopped smiling, but still drank tea calmly.

Mary leaned back in her chair, looking a little gloomy.

"I can understand...but didn't Marshal Sengoku take any countermeasures?"

"He did it. General Aokiji lives next door to you. Warring States has given orders. If CP0 does anything out of the ordinary, Kuzan will immediately take action to subdue him."

Crane replied calmly.

Mary spread her legs, bent down, covered her forehead with one hand, and said with a headache:

"Lieutenant General He... you should know that is not what I asked."

He half-squinted his eyes, with an inexplicable smile on his face.

"Sengoku protested to the World Government because of this incident, and next year's military expenditures increased by 5%."

"……Ah."

Mary immediately laughed angrily at this statement.

"So... I was used as a political bargaining chip by the Warring States Marshal?"

And it’s also a very cheap chip?

5%, what do you think? Why am I worth so much?

This made Mary confused. Firstly: 5% is already an astronomical figure for the entire navy's military expenditure; secondly: this matter is really not politically sensitive.

The Warring States Period was quite capable of obtaining this compensation. But that's not the point. What makes Mary angry is Sengoku's attitude.

Then think of the domineering power of the Warring States Period and the justice that reigns in the world...

Mary couldn't help but shake her head.

Sure enough, the Warring States Period was those who were not marshals but the Warring States Period.

Although when he was the marshal, the navy was more independent than when Akainu was the marshal, but as a member of the navy, Mary still couldn't stand the Sengoku period where political means were the main focus.

"Yes."

What Mary didn't expect at all was that He admitted it directly without any secret.

This made Mary look strange and difficult to answer, so she stared blankly at He to see what she was going to say next.

"You're dissatisfied, aren't you, Mary?"

Crane put down the tea cup in his hand, crossed his hands, and looked at Mary leisurely.

Mary looked at the crane for a while, then nodded slowly.

"indeed."

He smiled and said nothing, and Mary did not dare to say more for fear of being lectured by He.

This was the first time Mary had trouble speaking. Crane was too unpredictable.

"Mary, Sengoku and I are different in some ways."

Crane stood up and walked around the room a few times.

Then, he slowly sat down directly opposite Mary.

"Sengoku was in that position and had many things he couldn't control. Over time, under that kind of pressure, he could only focus on how to develop the navy, barely keeping the distance between the navy and the world government."

"But I, an old woman, have a lot of leisure time. I have plenty of time to think about some issues that he is tired of thinking about."

"For example, he wants to make the Navy stronger, while my focus is on how to make the Navy more independent."

"The Warring States Period trains you as a general, and I will train you as a marshal."

The crane's words were not surprising. Mary was shocked by her shocking remarks and looked around subconsciously.

If people heard this, He might be fine, but Mary might be in trouble.

"Don't worry, I checked it just now."

He said with a smile, half lying down with the Zhizhu in hand.

"So you just walked around the room a few times just for this reason..."

Mary sat down with a heavy face and looked at Crane with a somewhat wary expression.

This character, who was rarely mentioned in the original work, was exerting pressure on her that was no less than those strong men who showed great strength in the original work.

Can't figure it out.

"The Navy needs new blood, but it is not enough for this new blood to have combat effectiveness."

Crane said in a serious tone.

"Originally, I was optimistic about Smoker and Tina, but their talents are limited and it is difficult for them to suppress the navy or even the world government. Peach Rabbit is not without that ability, but the reputation is far behind."

"But Mary, what they don't have, you have."

Crane tapped the table lightly.

"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, you won't suffer too much."

"I understand, please leave first. I will negotiate with Warring States about this matter and help you get some compensation."

When Mary heard this, she immediately stood up and glanced at He with a complicated expression.

...I really can’t sit still.

He sat there calmly, without any pretense, just sitting there with a normal smile.

But in Mary's eyes, she was like a black hole with no bottom.

"Then I take my leave and thank you for your help."

Mary said goodbye briefly and quickly left Crane's room.

Staying here, Mary felt on pins and needles.

After a long time, Taotu came in from the door and sat down opposite the crane.
