MTL - One Piece: Wudang Baiye, Deputy Captain of the Straw Hats-Chapter 414
Just when Xu Ying was about to say his name, another voice broke into the depths of Luffy's consciousness.
There was a hint of surprise in the eagerness of the voice, but he didn't know what he had just interrupted.
Phantom: ...
Luffy:? ? ?
"Another voice? My mind is so busy today."
Luffy complained: "Also, why is someone looking for Joey Boy again? Who is this guy?"
But he didn't expect that this casual complaint made the third voice who suddenly appeared panic.
[Aren't you Joey Boy? impossible! 】
【Even if 800 years have passed, it is impossible for me to mistake the drumbeat of liberation. 】
"I'm Monkey D. Luffy, not some Joey Boy."
Luffy replied: "Speaking of which, who are you! Are you also a cheapskate living in my head?"
Phantom:? ? ?
"He is the Elephant Master...a partner who once fought side by side with us." Xu Ying said.
And the phantom's voice elicited a response from the elephant master.
【This voice...is you! 】
"it's me."
【I did hear correctly, the drumbeat is indeed you...】
[He is Joey Boy, right? 】
"He's not." Xu Ying told the truth: "Joy Boy died eight hundred years ago."
【died? ! ! 】
The elephant master's voice was so loud that it shook Luffy's consciousness space.
【impossible! How could he die! ! He is obviously...]
"We failed, like the Lord."
"The result of failure is death."
These words did not silence the elephant master, but made him more urgent:
【what about me? ! Why am I still alive! 】
[Bearing my sins and walking on this sea for hundreds of years, what is my waiting? ! 】
【What the **** am I waiting for? ! 】
Chapter 515 The Reason of the Elephant Lord, Luffy's Wrath
The voice was loud and angry, and the depths of Luffy's consciousness couldn't stop shaking.
But there is also endless sadness in it.
It is the despair and loneliness that neither Luffy nor Xuying can imagine.
"Elephant Lord..."
The phantom's voice became a little sad.
To be honest, hundreds of years have passed since the incident, and Xu Ying thinks he has already put it down.
But in fact, it never seemed to actually make it to find itself.
Whether it's what Lu Fei said before, or Xiangzhu's mournful cry now, it seems that Xuying has recalled something.
Some memories that I will never forget.
"I also separated from Joey Boy after that battle, so I don't know what you're waiting for..."
Yes, Xu Ying didn't know.
That's what makes it sad the most.
[Yeah, you don't know. 】
The Lord Xiang's voice sounded again, but it was sad and lonely.
[Eight hundred years, I have waited for eight hundred years. 】
[Because of the sins she bears, she is ordered not to do anything except walk. 】
[I have walked on this sea for eight hundred years. 】
[No one communicates, no one responds, and even...can't stop...]
【I am different from you. Even after eight hundred years, you may still be alive, but I...】
【There is no second eight hundred years...】
Xuying trembled when he heard this, but he couldn't say a word, so he could only continue to listen to the elephant.
[I can feel that my days are numbered. 】
【My body begins to rot, my movements become sluggish, and even the most common artillery fire can blast my skin. 】
[Heh~ Even two little guys fighting on my body can make me feel pain. 】
[But I can't stop. 】
【The person I was waiting for has not yet appeared, and that person has not yet told me whether my sins have been redeemed. 】
【That person hasn't told me whether I can fight...】
Speaking of this, the elephant master paused for a moment, and then said more sadly:
【At least once, just once...】
[Someone can order me. 】
[Order me to fight. 】
...
"Elephant Lord..."
Phantom can perceive its emotions, but cannot comfort it.
After so many years, Xu Ying has also vaguely guessed something, so he understands who the elephant master is waiting for.
but he doesn't
Know when the elephant master can wait, or, can wait.
"You'll wait for that person."
Xu Ying said so, but his tone was not so sure.
【Yeah? 】
[Maybe, maybe I can wait until that person arrives. 】
【Maybe, I...】
"You guys are annoying."
Elephant Lord:...
Phantom: ...
If it wasn't Luffy who was talking at this moment, who else would it be?
"Although you said a lot of things that I didn't understand, I probably understood."
Lu Fei's tone was indifferent, and the phantom could even vaguely see Lu Fei picking his nose.
"I hate you guy." Qian Qian 尛哾
These words are inexplicable, but they were said so casually from Luffy's mouth.
"Let me think about it, Bai Ye seems to have said a word, it suits you very well."
"Hmm... that's right!"
"A dead brain, you are a dead brain."
Xiangzhu and Xuying have completely stopped talking at this moment, not because they were shocked by Luffy, but because they don't know what he is talking about suddenly.
At this time, Luffy is still outputting:
"Say something about bearing the sins of eight hundred years, and talk about punishing yourself."
"Actually, I just don't want to take responsibility."
"Self-righteous thinking"
Elephant master:...
"I also said that I have been waiting for a person, waiting for him to tell you that your sins are redeemed, waiting for him to tell you that you can fight."
"Why!"
"The people who were with you back then, aren't they already dead? Why wait for someone you've never seen before, and let him order you!"
At this time, Xu Ying really wanted to say that those people were not all dead, but she always felt that it was not good to intervene now.
At the same time, he was also surprised by Luffy's words.
Because in his opinion, these words are too deviant.
[Because my sins are too heavy, I am not qualified to make decisions for myself. 】
The Lord Xiang's voice sounded, but he was slightly hesitant compared to before, but he still tried his best to defend himself.
Although the person who spoke was a brat, based on his seniority, the elephant master shouldn't care about anything with him at all.
But perhaps because no one has communicated for hundreds of years, the elephant owner's desire to confide has become much stronger.
【You don’t understand my pain. I have seen my friends die beside me and heard their mourning with my own ears, but I can’t do anything about it. 】
【I have witnessed the invincible enemy, and I have personally experienced the indescribable despair.
】
【I'm not Joey Boy, I'm not the one who was destined, what else can I do but wait? 】
...
Xu Ying couldn't help but nod at the words of the elephant master.
As an existence who also experienced that war, he understands everything that Xiangzhu said, and can also understand Xiangzhu's mood.
The battlefield is not a play house, but a meat grinder where you live and die.
In that place, the most dazzling one will always be that one or those few powerful beings, who are worshiped and admired by everyone.
Even history will only remember these people.
But most of them are like the Lord.
In that battlefield, you can see everywhere, no one with great strength, and no one who knows when they will die.
When the war is won, they may stand behind the heroes and become a great backdrop.
When the war is lost, those of them who are still alive, will be called losers, and will bear the blame and the pained eyes of all who have given them high hopes.
They are not heroes, and they don't even deserve names.
Under such circumstances, there is nothing wrong with acting like the Lord.
He is not a hero after all.
Just as Xu Ying was thinking this way, Lu Fei's voice sounded softly.
He repeated the last words spoken by the Lord.
"What else can I do but wait?"
Suddenly, Luffy roared out in anger with a painful voice:
