Chapter 862 Kira: The so-called D is actually...
Of course, it was Kira who let Crocodile go. Otherwise, how could he escape by himself as a prisoner trapped in an iron box filled with water?
He left in a very miserable state, alone, taking only two cigars, a coat, and a bucket of water, which he hated the most but had to take with him.
Even though he was penniless and all his men were gone, Kira believed that it would not be difficult for a man like Crocodile who was ambitious, resourceful and strong to start over.
"So, where did Crocodile go?" In the carriage, seeing the empty cage on the screen, Robin looked at Kira curiously and asked.
Kira curled his lips and said, "Who knows, maybe he can find a new group of subordinates and head to the new world?"
"Aren't you afraid that he will find your companions and use them to threaten you?"
After just one day of getting along, Robin had already learned from the simple-minded Wendy and the others that the Fairy Tail wizards were scattered all over the world.
"Please, I'm his benefactor. He can't even thank me enough. How could he possibly seek revenge on my friends?"
Great benefactor... you are so shameless? ?
Robin's eye twitched, "Just because you let him go? But he was originally locked up by your partner. How could he choose not to take revenge just because of this? He is a notorious pirate!"
"How could it be because of this? He owes me more than just the favor of releasing me from the cage!" Kira explained to Robin with a light smile, then stretched out his right hand and counted on his fingers one by one for her to hear.
"First of all, I made him leave Alabasta early to avoid fighting with the Nefertari family's final regime, so up to now there is no obvious evidence to prove his plan to 'steal the country'. In this way, Crocodile is still the hero of Alabasta and his reputation is intact;"
"Secondly, Crocodile has not come into contact with his final target - the historical text, and no one except us knows that his real target is 'Pluto' rather than 'stealing the country', so he will not be targeted by the World Government and the Five Elders;"
"Third, if I take you away, it means that he will have one less assistant who could backstab him at any time, and there will be no hidden dangers of attracting the admirals of the navy or even the high-ranking CP of the World Government;"
"Fourth, even if we didn't take action, Crocodile would eventually be defeated by Monkey D. Luffy, and then his conspiracy would be exposed, and he would be stripped of his title of 'Seven Warlords of the Sea' by the Navy, and finally imprisoned in Impel Down forever. My actions saved him from a prison sentence;"
" Fifth , I told him the whereabouts of the ancient weapon Pluto, which saved him a lot of time and effort;"
"In the end, it was my kindness to release him from the cage."
Kira made a big "five" with his right hand in front of Robin, and recounted all his kindness to Crocodile: "Look, I did so much, and all I got in return was a Baroque Works, a group of assassins and spies who are weak, lack IQ, and may rebel at any time. Why shouldn't he be grateful to me?"
The Baroque Works Company is a pile of shit when together and a starry sky when apart. If it is in Crocodile's hands, it would just be a waste of those talents. Let me make them realize their greater value.
“……” Robin opened his mouth and eyes wide, staring at Kira in disbelief, unable to speak for a long time.
She had been sailing on the sea for twenty years and had seen a lot of the world. She knew how dark this world was, but this was the first time she had seen someone as shameless as the man in front of her. What he said seemed to make sense, and she couldn't find any point to refute...
"How do you know the whereabouts of 'Pluto'?"
The other questions were fine, but 'Pluto' was related to the historical text of Alabasta, so she couldn't help but ask.
Kira was silent for a long time, and finally he came up with his tried-and-true excuse: "I have a special intelligence channel."
Robin was stunned again: A special intelligence channel? What kind of channel could be so special that it even has information about Pluto?
"You just said that Straw Hat... Monkey D. Luffy can defeat Crocodile. Aren't you overestimating his strength? Even if he can't beat you, Crocodile is still a Shichibukai and a user of the Nature Devil Fruit ability! Does he really have that kind of strength?"
"You underestimate Straw Hat Luffy. He is the person in the world most likely to become the Pirate King!"
The second most likely person is Bucky. Apart from the two of them, there is no third person to consider.
"Monkey D. Luffy..." Robin's eyes flashed with confusion, "D...what is it? Who are those people with D in their names?"
“D…”
Until before he traveled through time, Oda had not explained the true meaning of D, so it could be human dreams, the dawn of the world, a horizontal smile, or the cup size on the chest.
Thinking of this, Kira's tone suddenly became extremely emotional, and there was even a hint of nostalgia on his face: "The so-called D is a title that is only given to the best wizards."
Robin: “???”
Everyone: “???”
Isn't that right? No matter how you look at it, it's impossible, right? How could the so-called D be that kind of thing? How could a group of you wizards who just appeared be related to the D that has been passed down for who knows how long? ?
Wait! This just popped up today? ?
Robin was startled, and then he imagined frantically: Lucy said they came from a world called Aslant, full of magic, belonging to a place called the Kingdom of Fiore, and now this man said that D is an honor only awarded to the best wizards. Combining the two people's statements, it can be roughly inferred that the Kingdom of Fiore should have the custom of awarding the title of 'D' to outstanding wizards...
By the way, Leibi also said that the time they are in is X786, and now it is 1520 in the Haiyuan calendar. The difference between the two is 734 years, which is very close to the number 800! And the history of this world from 900 to 800 years ago is completely blank! Could it be that they, the wizards, are really related to the blank 100 years of history? ?
By the way, they also said that magic can connect to other worlds, and there is magic in the magic world that can control time and space, and there are wizards who often travel back and forth between multiple worlds. The wizards of their "Fairy Tail" also came here because of the space cracks...
I heard that there is a race called demons in their world, and this name sounds very related to the devil fruit! And the magic used by the girl named Juvia is exactly the same as the natural devil fruit...
Not only that, except for the fact that those magics have no weakness to seawater, they are just as incredible as the abilities of devil fruits. Could it be...
Suddenly, there seemed to be a white beam of light behind Robin's head, stringing all the clues together, and a bold idea emerged in her mind.
"Impossible! This is ridiculous!"
Robin gritted his teeth and thought to himself, "Unless there is a devil fruit in this world that can travel through time and connect to different dimensions, I will never believe it!"
Kira looked at the uncertain expression on Robin's face and was very confused: I just made a random comment about the other world, why did this woman have such an expression? ?
The others also looked at Kira and blinked in confusion.
Wendy tugged at Kira's clothes and asked, "Kira-san, does Ascalante have a custom of awarding the title 'D' to wizards? How come I don't know about it? Isn't the title awarded by the Council the 'Ten Holy Wizards'?"
"You're not the strongest wizard in the Kingdom of Fiore, it's normal that you don't know these things!"
Kira rubbed his ponytailed head and spoke in a serious manner, "'The Ten Holy Wizards' is the title given by the Council to the most outstanding wizards in Ishgar; 'D' is the title given by the Fiore Royal Family to the most outstanding wizards in the Kingdom of Fiore. The two are different."
After a pause, Kira added: "This involves the political confrontation between the Fiore royal family and the Council. You kids shouldn't ask too much. It won't do you any good. Anyway, we are here to support you if the sky falls."
“Is… is that so…?”
Seeing Kira's convincing words, Wendy really believed them and nodded doubtfully, but she was secretly complaining in her heart: "Who does Kira-san mean by 'we'? The powerful wizards in the Kingdom of Fiore? Could it be that the president and Gildarts are among them?"
Except for the young and ignorant Wendy who believed Kira's words a little, the other wizards in the car rolled their eyes.
What kind of political confrontation is this between the Fiore royal family and the Council? You've never heard of it, okay?!
Although the people in the Council are a bit old-fashioned and tough, they have always been maintaining the stability of the magic world, otherwise they would not have existed for so long; and King Thomas and Princess Emerald of the Fiore royal family are also good people, how come this guy has turned them into sinister and black-hearted politicians? ?
Urrutia had been undercover in the Council, so she was the one who knew the truth of Kira's words the most. She looked at Wendy, whose eyes were filled with clear stupidity, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "How could this child be deceived so easily? !"
Is it true that Fairy Tail lacks education for children?
"Don't believe his nonsense, Wendy! There is no such ceremony in the Kingdom of Fiore!"
"Eh? Really?"
Urrutia puffed out his chest and said, "Of course! I worked for the royal family before, so how could I not know if there was such a thing?"
Wendy understood all this, and there was a hint of resentment in her eyes as she looked at Kira.
So it was a lie?
Robin felt lost for a moment: "I thought I had just solved a little historical mystery..."
"Ahem, okay, I admit that what I said just now was a joke. 'D' has nothing to do with magic." Kira Tactics coughed, and then his expression became serious: "But I do know the true meaning of 'D'!"
"Hmm?" Robin's eyes lit up again.
Kira smiled and said, "It's actually the abbreviation of 'debt', which means debt. The 'D' clan is actually the creditor (debtee) of this world, and the others are debtors (debtors), which means that the whole world owes them money, and everyone is 'D'."
Everyone: “…”
"This explanation is even more outrageous than the previous one!!"
"Don't force it if you don't know, Kira!"
Kira looked unhappy and retorted: "How can this be said? What I said is all based on facts!"
"hehe……"
"Well, the 'D' clan is actually the doctors of the 'Lost Kingdom of Technology'. The 20 most outstanding ones are called 'doctor 20', and their descendants are the current Celestial Dragons..."
"I'd be an idiot if I believed you again!"
"Don't believe it? Then let me tell you a few more. 'D' stands for democracy. They are the revolutionaries who overthrew the dark rulers in the past. 'D' stands for demons. They are those who obtained the power of devil fruits long ago. They are destined to put an end to the rulers who call themselves 'Gods'. 'D' is..."
"Hey! Pay attention and listen to me! Don't fall asleep!..."
