One Piece: The Long Road

Vol 3 Chapter 38: Unknown Purpose

.

In the dark space, the sound of gasping for breath kept sounding. After a while, the sound of gasping for breath dropped significantly, and then slowly disappeared.

After a long time, a slightly startled voice sounded: “Who are you! What the **** is this murderous aura?”

The tremor in his heart was uneasy for a long time, and Simon’s face was full of surprise. The terrifying aura that made him almost unable to breathe just now was still vivid in his mind.

“Ah, didn’t I tell you, I can’t answer this question, and that murderous aura is only the lowest level of murderous aura, you don’t need to worry about it.” The voice came from somewhere, and there was a little smile in the words.

“Just kidding, at least?” Simon thought in surprise, but he said lightly: “Are you mocking me?”

“Saying you?” The voice said in surprise: “Why?”

“You…” Hearing this answer, Simon was dumbfounded, not knowing how to answer.

I can’t always say that it’s because I have nothing to do with it…

“Forget it, who are you?” Simon was very curious about the identity of this voice.

“Didn’t I tell you, I can’t answer this question.” The voice was a little impatient.

Hearing the patience in those words, Simon didn’t care, and continued: “Do you want to answer, or can’t answer?”

“Ah, you are so annoying. In a sense, I don’t want to answer, but in fact, I can’t answer it.”

“What the **** are you talking about!” Simon’s head was full of black lines.

“It’s nothing, come on, let’s continue chatting.”

“Chat? What a joke.” Simon raised his eyebrows and said coldly, “Let me out.”

“Reason.” The voice said lightly.

“Reason?” Simon was stunned, “Inexplicably appearing in this space, do you need a reason to go out?”

“Well.” The voice said earnestly: “Everything needs a reason.”

“Don’t talk to me about something, I will appear here, and I will definitely have nothing to do with you.”

“Yes, you are here entirely because of me.” The voice responded with a bachelor’s degree, making Simon almost unable to react.

“You…” Simon was dumbfounded again, and immediately said angrily: “My patience has reached the limit, you say that everything needs a reason, right?”

“right.”

“Okay, tell me what is the reason for you to drag me into this space.”

“Because, if I don’t pull you into this space, you will die soon. Could it be that you forgot what happened before you came to this space?” The voice mocked lightly.

Hearing this, Simon suddenly fell silent, hesitating whether he should believe what the voice said.

As if seeing what Simon was thinking at this time, the voice said lightly: “No doubt, because I have no reason to deceive you at all, and I can tell you that you will not die in the real world if you leave this space now. .”

“What do you want to say?” Simon was not very happy when he heard this voice. Although there is no definite evidence to show that this inexplicable space needs the help of this voice, given his current situation, he is not very happy about getting out of the way. There is really no clue about space.

“It’s nothing, I just think you are useless, but very interesting, so I want to chat with you. After all, you are the first one who can talk to me.” The voice said lightly.

Hearing this, Simon’s face sank and he said, “Just to chat with me?”

“Ah, that’s right.”

“Say, stop joking.” Simon gritted his teeth, “I’m not in the mood to chat with you right now, let me out of this space!”

“What do you want to do out of this space?” The voice was soft and ethereal.

“Then there’s no need to say that.” His eyes were slightly cold, and Simon’s mind flashed the look of Crocodile laughing wildly, and said coldly: “Of course, kill Crocodile!”

“Haha.” The voice heard a low laugh and said lightly: “I can tell you, now, Crocodile has been defeated.”

“What?” When Simon heard this, he was stunned and said: “Defeat? Who was defeated?”

“It doesn’t matter who is defeated. You just need to remember that if it wasn’t for me, you would have died under Crocodile’s hands, which means that you are a loser.”

“Am I a loser?” Simon said coldly: “If it weren’t for the hand that suddenly appeared, Crocodile would have died under my sword!”

“You know… I don’t need to know this.” The tone of the voice also became cold, “Whatever the reason is, I only know that you lose, it’s as simple as that.”

Hearing this, Simon’s face became more and more ugly. Indeed, no matter what, he still lost, and he couldn’t refute at all, the naked truth said by this voice.

“Success or failure, that’s not what the parties can say. I have witnessed a lot of successes, and of course, I have also seen a lot of failures.” As if to comfort Simon at this time, the tone of his voice turned flat again, with a kind of Narrative tone spoke up.

“And you are one of the losers.”

Hearing the disdainful voice, Simon’s face gradually turned cold.

“Even if I fail, so what, what does it have to do with you?”

“嘁.” The voice snorted, but did not speak, as if acquiescing to Simon’s statement.

“What?” Simon sneered.

“Indeed, your failure has nothing to do with me.” The voice said flatly: “To me, there is no difference between you and those who have used my strength, whether it is success or failure, without exception, It will only disappoint me.”

“You…” Simon’s face changed slightly.

Who is this guy…

I used the power of this guy?

Could it be that it is an epee?

Thinking of this, Simon couldn’t believe it, but when he thought of the poppy he had encountered before, the silk that just rose was shattered in disbelief.

“Could it be that you are a nameless epee?” Simon asked in surprise.

“Ah, in a sense, it is.” The voice remained flat, “But I don’t think I’m just a weapon.”

Hearing the answer of this voice, Simon’s surprise rose to a new height. He didn’t expect that a weapon would have a soul and could talk to it. It seems that what Alex said before was indeed correct.

“I didn’t expect that you would be a nameless epee.”

“I didn’t expect that if I lent you my power, I would still lose to such a weak person.” The voice sarcastically said.

Hearing this, Simon was silent. In front of the facts, he really had no way to refute it.

“Why did you lend me your power?” Simon, who didn’t want to get entangled on this topic, asked his doubts.

According to Uncle Kunke, if you want to stimulate the power of the epee, the first condition is to give the epee a name, and then if you want to really stimulate all the power of the epee, you have to let the epee admit it, then, He didn’t name the epee, how could he inspire the power of the epee? He has always used it as a tool. Could it be recognized like this?

“Because you are so weak, and the speed at which your strength increases makes me feel chills.” The voice mocked lightly: “For someone like me who has waited for so many years, patience has been honed to an astonishing level. I can’t stand the speed at which your strength increases.”

“With such a few simple words, can I easily deny the training I worked so hard for?” A little anger climbed onto Simon’s handsome face, thinking of the previous year in Rogge Town, the anger was irrepressible gushed out.

In fact, Simon knew that the reason for his anger was not what the voice said, but that he trained so hard, but he didn’t get the results he deserved. As the voice said, the speed of strength improvement was really slow. He couldn’t deny this, and at the same time, this was what made him the most angry.

“I only pay attention to the results.” The voice said solemnly: “But if you work hard and work hard, if the results are not good, it will be in vain.”

Hearing this, Simon was silent for a while, and then said coldly: “Lend me power, just because my power increase speed is too slow?”

“Ah, no, that’s just one of the reasons for being involved.” The voice said lazily: “How should I put it, you are the first to hate me, and the first to hold me but don’t want to use it. The existence of my power, so I always thought you would be a special existence.”

“It’s just that when I first lent you my power, I realized I was wrong, what do you think?”

Hearing this, his teeth couldn’t help biting his lip, and for a while, Simon passed all kinds of past, from the oath at the beginning, the disgust for the heavy sword, to the field that is farther and farther away from the oath now, And the current dependence on the epee.

myself, really useless…

“Ah, it looks like you’ve thought a lot, so we’re almost done talking here.”

“What do you mean?” Simon was taken aback.

“Tsk tsk~www.readwn.com~ I forgot to tell you. If you want to leave this space, there is another way besides me, and that is to recover your physical injuries to a certain extent in the real world.”

Epee said in a contemplative tone, and he heard the blue veins on Simon’s forehead.

“You bastard!” Simon said angrily.

“Okay, since you became conscious, you are the first person who can talk to me, so I am very happy today.” Ignoring Simon’s anger, Epee said lightly: “Then, goodbye, see you again. .”

“you…”

The anger dissipated, and when he heard the words of the epee, Simon’s face couldn’t help but change slightly. In the middle of the sound, a white light suddenly appeared in front, and it was extremely dazzling in this space.

Seeing this white light, Simon realized that he was about to leave this space.

“Hey, you haven’t said the purpose of lending me your power!” Simon asked loudly towards the empty surroundings as the white light became more and more dazzling.

“So what if you know?” It was still the same flat tone.

“Hmph, you waited so long, wasn’t it just to accomplish your purpose?” Simon said seriously: “Then, tell me, it’s not up to you whether I can help you accomplish your purpose.”

“嘁.” The voice cut off and became silent. At this time, the white light was about to fill the space, and half of Simon’s body was drowned in the white light.

“To be honest, I don’t have any hope for you anymore.” The voice paused and said, “If you want to know, when your strength reaches a certain height, I will pull you into this space again. ”

As soon as the sound of the epee fell, the white light drowned Simon in that instant, and the dark space disappeared without a trace, leaving only a dazzling white light.
