Chapter 563: Enemy of God
"That's right! It's me! I've been waiting for this day to come...waiting for you to come!"
Musgarud nodded solemnly, and continued to kneel on the ground and said: "The late Princess Otohime enlightened me and made me a normal human! So no matter what, I must repay this kindness!"
Then, he gave King Neptune a reassurance.
"During the seven days of the meeting, I will always be with Princess Shirahoshi. If I can help others, I am still happy to use my identity as a Celestial Dragon."
"There are good people and bad people, and the same is true for the fishmen... Fortunately, you, Musgarud, let me not despair of the World Government."
Fishman Island has spent so much effort during this period of time just to move to the sea to live. King Neptune feels that he can't be so impulsive, so after calming down, King Neptune still did not take Shirahoshi and others back to the bottom of the sea as he just said, but once again believed in the World Government.
Well, how to say... Although it is so naive that it makes people laugh, this is indeed the choice he would make.
Although Jinbei and the others seemed to have some different opinions, they probably hesitated for a long time and didn't speak because of Saint Musgard.
Xie Wen, who originally wanted to make King Neptune give up, was not in a hurry. In the original work, Saint Charlos was beaten into a pig's head but did not give up capturing Shirahoshi. Now that he was unscathed, Xie Wen didn't believe that he would give up.
Even if he would not cause trouble again because of the Knights of God or some other reason, Xie Wen still didn't think it was a big deal.
There is probably only one Celestial Dragon like Saint Musgard now, even if the dead are counted, there are only the Huo Minggu couple and Rosinante, so the fishmen will sooner or later be alienated from the World Government.
Even if everything goes well and Fishman Island is successfully moved to the sea, Xie Wen will also be happy to see it.
If there is no falling out, then there is no falling out. It's also good to let Shirahoshi fulfill her mother's last wish as soon as possible.
As for the future, it is only a matter of time before Shirahoshi, who has the identity of "Poseidon", confronts the World Government or Im. We can consider how to deal with it when the time comes.
"Are you... "Blue Star" Xie Wen..."
After a brief reminiscence with King Neptune, Saint Musgard stood up from the ground and came to Xie Wen with a complicated look.
Although Doflamingo's branch left Santa Maria Joa thirty years ago, his last name is Don Quixote after all.
In addition, Saint Musgard also has complicated feelings for Doflamingo's parents. When he heard that the Ho Minggu family gave up their identity as Celestial Dragons, he laughed at them.
But after being influenced by Princess Otohime, Saint Musgard now understands Ho Minggu's thoughts at the time, He even had similar thoughts, but the Huo Minggu family's previous experience was there, so Saint Musgarud didn't repeat the same mistake, but he admired that fellow tribesman in his heart.
Xie Wen could guess a little about Saint Musgarud's thoughts, but now was not the right time to talk to him about these things, so Xie Wen just nodded casually as a greeting.
Saint Musgarud didn't continue to dwell on these issues, and continued: "If Charlos dares to take action again in the future, you can just do it. With me here, even if you take action against him... it's okay! You... shouldn't be afraid of their revenge, right?"
He still tried to say at the end.
"Of course I have no problem." Xie Wen shrugged, "But you, aren't you afraid of being troubled by the Knights of God?"
"... That's something I have to consider, as long as you dare to take action. "
Saint Musgarud did not directly answer Xie Wen's question. It was unknown whether he was ready to risk his life or whether he thought the Knights of God would not execute him for such a small matter.
Well, if there is a conflict, save him if you have a chance.
It is rare to have a normal Celestial Dragon. Even if his identity will be revoked after this, he has lived in Saint Mary Joa for so many years and must know a lot of secrets of the Celestial Dragons... I think Drago should be interested in him.
...
"Mr. Xie Wen, can we talk alone?"
After talking with Saint Musgarud, King Cobra came over again and invited him in a low voice.
Anyway, there is nothing else to do for a while, so Xie Wen would naturally not refuse.
"Well, you stay here with Shirahoshi and Vivi. "
Xie Wen thought for a moment and said to Klee and Sharmi on his shoulders.
In his impression, in addition to Shirahoshi who was targeted by Saint Charlos, Princess Vivi would also be targeted by Im and then secretly captured by CP0.
Although it is not clear why nothing happened when she came to attend the World Conference as a child, Xie Wen still feels that he needs to be on guard.
After leaving the cats and Baby-5 in the square, Xie Wen followed King Cobra to the room specially for the members of the Alabasta Kingdom to rest. Bell and Gaga stood guard outside the door as usual.
"After Nico Robin read the text of the history of the Alabasta Kingdom, I also became a little interested in exploring the history of my country, so I went to read the ancient books left in the royal family..."
King Cobra said straight to the point: "But I found something different from what has been passed down."
"Where should I start..." He pondered for a moment before continuing: "Eight hundred years ago, twenty kings united to establish the World Government. They were called the 'First Twenty', and one of them was Queen Lily, the ancestor of our Nefertari clan. However, she did not choose to stay in Saint Mary Joa and become a Celestial Dragon, but returned to the Kingdom of Alabasta."
Xie Wen actually knew a rough idea of these things, but he politely did not interrupt King Cobra. At the same time, he also guessed what the other party wanted to say to him, but Xie Wen did not understand why he was telling him these things.
"But after reading all the ancient books in our country, I didn't find any records about Queen Lily. In fact, she didn't return to the Kingdom of Alabasta as the legend said. Later, Queen Lily's brother ruled Alabasta."
"In addition, our Nefertari family has a note passed down from generation to generation. It was left by Queen Lily, and the signature on it is Nefertari D. Lily."
King Cobra paused, and finally told Xie Wen the reason why he and Xie Wen talked so much: "After the meeting, please ask Nico Robin for me whether she has seen this name in other ancient books or historical texts, and...what is 'D'?"
"So you are going to ask this..."
Xie Wen crossed his arms and put on a look of a master, "I don't know much about the name Nefertari D. Lily, but I know something about 'D'."
It's time to show off with the original comics again!
"In the Celestial Dragons' concept, 'D' stands for 'God's enemy', which must be eliminated. In the eyes of those who want to overthrow the World Government, 'D' stands for hope...Drager of the Revolutionary Army, Dr. Clover, the historian of O'Hara and Robin's teacher, and Roger, the Pirate King, all have D in their names."
After giving King Cobra a little shock of D, Xie Wen said, "But now it's not so particular, after all, Garp's middle name also has D, and the World Government didn't specifically deal with him."
"But..." Xie Wen said The front changed again, "It's better not to let the World Government know the real name of your Alabasta royal family... Although I don't know what happened to your ancestor Queen Lily, since she didn't become a Celestial Dragon, she deliberately changed her surname and hid the existence of D, so she must have her reasons."
Just when King Cobra just told Xie Wen about Queen Lily, his memory about this aspect was gradually awakened. In the original comics, King Cobra was killed because he stupidly ran to the Five Elders to ask about Queen Lily.
God knows if he has the same idea now, so Xie Wen thinks it's better to remind him.
"...You're right, you still have to be careful about this kind of thing."
King Cobra showed a little fear on his face and nodded in agreement.
So you really planned to confront the Five Elders before, right?
Xie Wen rolled his eyes speechlessly.
The convergence of world lines is something that is really hard to guard against. It was also thanks to King Cobra who came to see him before and successfully awakened the relevant memories, otherwise he would have died several years earlier than in the original book.
