"Let go of me! I want to find her!" Qing Lin struggled, using all the strength he could muster to escape from Kulokas 'embrace.
He didn't know what had happened, nor did he know what Robin was thinking, but…
He would never allow himself to lose her!
After so many years, Nicole Robin was no longer just a simple anime character to him!
They had lived together for five years!
They had experienced life and death together, injuries and pain. They were people who could trust each other with their backs!
They…were 'family'!
The originally calm sea surface began to churn, and in the belly of the island whale, Rabu, a gust of wind suddenly blew!
"Qing Lin, please calm down!"
"I can't calm down!" Accompanied by Qing Lin's roar, a hurricane suddenly erupted around him, blowing Culocas away from him. Then, he pushed open the window beside him and was about to jump out.
However, at this moment, a golden sword light completely blocked his path, forcing him to retreat.
"Artoria! Even you want to stop me?" Qing Lin's emotions were already very unstable at this moment. Seeing that his path was blocked, a green armor instantly appeared on his body, and he punched out!
"Azure Forest J Scarlet! What exactly do you want?" Artolia asked as she waved her sword to block Qing Lin's punch. Sparks flew when the sword and fist collided.
"What are you doing? Was there a need to ask? Of course, we're going to find her!" With another punch, the wind fluctuated even more violently, and Rabu's pained cry seemed to come from the sky.
"Why did you bring her back?" However, after hearing Qing Lin's words, Altoria seemed to be even angrier than him.
"This is a choice Robin made based on his heart. What right do you have to…stop him?”The Sword in the Stone glowed with a golden light. Altoria sent Qing Lin flying out of the ward and smashed into the wall.
Just like what she said earlier…it heavily smashed into Qing Lin's heart.
"Her own choice? " But why…" Qing Lin leaned against the wall weakly as he muttered to himself.
This was perhaps the most decadent moment he had ever been since he came to this world.
"Don't you feel anything? The uneasiness in her heart!" Seeing that Qing Lin had finally calmed down, Altolia heaved a sigh of relief and put her sword back.
How could Qing Lin not feel it? He could be considered one of the people who understood Robin the most in this world.
Of course, he also knew that Robin's strength could no longer keep up with his footsteps.
The battles that she could interfere in, Azure Forest could casually settle them, but the opponents that Azure Forest truly found troublesome, she was unable to provide the slightest bit of help.
Just like how a lion wasn't suitable to be neighbors with a rabbit, when Azure Forest's strength had already reached this level, Robin was actually completely unsuitable to follow by his side.
He wasn't the Four Sovereigns. He didn't have his own subordinates, nor did he have such great power. He also didn't have the strength to fight against the navy headquarters alone.
In fact, the equipment on his ship was not complete, and it was even more exaggerated than the 'Grass Hat Pirates' that Luffy was about to establish in the future.
The only crew member on his ship who was truly powerful was Altoria!
Other than the swordsmen, the other boatmen, captains, sailors, and even chefs were all him!
However, such a small pirate group was indeed very powerful. They were so powerful that they became a thorn in the navy's side.
And under such a premise, it also set a tone: His crew must have sufficient strength.
Otherwise…it would only be a burden and a breakthrough for the navy!
Although he was unwilling, Qing Lin had to admit that Robin was the breakthrough point.
But…
"But…I didn't care.”Qing Lin muttered.
That's right, he never cared about it--whether Robin could help him in battle or not, he didn't care about the battle with the navy, and even he himself was injured and dying. He still hadn't recovered until now.
However, this was his responsibility!
From the moment he left Ohara, his fate was tied to that girl named Nicole Robin!
"But…she cares." Altolia looked at Qing Lin, who had lost his soul, and a trace of pity flashed in her eyes.
This was something that she had discovered long ago. As a girl, her heart was far more sensitive than Qing Lin's. She had long discovered Robin's anxiety and confusion when they first boarded the ship.
Similarly, she, who was on the same ship, knew better than anyone else the deep bond between the two of them.
However, this was also the reason why she could not stop this from happening.
It was precisely because she cared more about him than anyone else that she did not want to be a burden to him, right?
Two idiots.
However, when such a person made his own decision, even the 'ideal king' had no right to interfere.
Because their decisions were never for themselves.
Her pure and innocent heart made a decision for the things she cared about. Other than herself, no one had the right to stop her.
Choosing to separate for the sake of protection was Nicole Robin's own decision.
Qing Lin's emotions seemed to have finally calmed down. He gently picked up the note by the bed with both hands, and when he saw the faint traces of tears on the note, his expression froze for a moment.
'My name is…my name is Nicole Robin.'
'My name is Qing Lin, Qing Lin J Scarlet.'
'Hmm? What did you say you decided?'
" I've decided. I want to become a historian like my mother. I want to solve the mysteries of history. I want to finish what she started!'
" I see…Since you've put it that way, I'll set my goal as the strongest in the world for now!'
" Eh, there's no relationship between the two, right?'
'Hmph, you're wrong about that…'
'If I become the strongest in the world, I can protect you while you solve the historical mystery!'
'I don't need your protection. I'll definitely become very powerful when the time comes!'
'More powerful than me? That's not good, right?
'Hmm…I'm even more powerful than you. Then, when the time comes…'
"I'll protect you!"
"Haha, I'm looking forward to it."
In the fragments of time, the encounters seemed to be repeating themselves.
In one of the fragments, a beautiful scene could be vaguely seen: On a beautiful, ancient, and intelligent island, a black-haired young man in a red trench coat stretched out his hand to a crying little loli.
P.S. I'm in a good mood today. I've written three chapters. I saved one chapter as my manuscript, so I'll have another chapter later.
