Henry went from lieutenant to captain in just a few months, from collecting rags in the G10 branch to temporarily commanding the Qilin. Of course, it was not Ron who really took the kickback.
The reason why he valued Henry's promotion to him so much was just because this kind of person was very realistic, and reality was easy to control.
And a person who knows how to please Shangguan will definitely not go against Ron. This kind of person always weighs the gains and losses in his heart and cannot be accepted as a confidant, but he will definitely be a qualified team member.
Ron's plan is a bit big. Except for Zefa's lineage, no matter how good the relationship with other generals in the headquarters is, there is still a difference between you and me. If you want to achieve your goals, only your own strength is the most important.
Yes, it is like that!
Nothing wrong!
Ron proposed to replace the prison on the Qilin with special compartments made of pure steel. After the transformation, the densely packed metal components in the Qilin allowed him to easily control these compartments through Lei Yetie, unless he had the ability to break the two compartments with his fists. The strength of the ten centimeter thick steel plate, otherwise there would be basically no jailbreak.
In a sunny booth, a clean white sheet hangs in the center to protect the painting from direct sunlight. A green-haired girl sat at the other end of the room, facing the sea, holding a spice plate in her hand.
Ron walked over and found that the painting he painted was a picture of seagulls circling a sailing ship from a God's perspective. Outside the window opposite, which was inlaid with sea tower stone strips, all that could be seen was a monotonous blue sky with a few clouds interspersed here and there. , far less beautiful than the picture.
This girl is Monet, who narrowly survived the fire.
And Ron locked her up, of course not to hide the beauty in the golden house.
"Phew...it's really cold!"
Standing outside the cubicle, Ron breathed into the palm of his hand.
The room was still the same room, but now the room was covered with a thin layer of ice crystals, and the biting cold wind flowed through the ventilation system, making the entire prison area chilly.
Monet turned his head expressionlessly, glanced at him, and then continued to pick up the brush and sketch bit by bit.
The source of this cold air was Monet. Her skin became as white as snowflakes... not the whiteness of normal people's skin, but as white as a snowfield, without a trace of variegated color. The biting cold air spreads with the breath, and every time you take a breath, there will be dots of ice crystals in the air, shining silver in the sunlight.
Ever since Dressrosa exploded, Monet has been autistic.
It’s so autistic!
Before the doctor had time to report, Monet, who was seriously injured and sleeping, turned into an ice sculpture, his body curled up together, and the hospital bed was frozen. Dongte and others were panicked because of Ron's "death", and no one paid attention to her, so she was forgotten in the prison.
Until Ron woke up later, Monet remained in the ice sculpture state. When he asked out of curiosity, Henry was revealed as the culprit.
So Henry was promoted.
From lieutenant to captain.
Of course, he is a captain who is posted in the G10 branch. Ron has no right to appoint officers in the branch.
At the same time, as if aware of the changes in the outside world, Monet, who was in "autism", gradually became unfrozen and transformed into his current... Buddhist appearance.
Sizzling…
Using electricity to light the cigar and leaning against the wall, Ron asked thoughtfully.
"Do you want to get out of here?"
It was hard not to think about what was painted on the canvas. If Monet wanted to go out, Ron would not refuse.
"leave?"
"Life is a prison. If you leave here, it will just change to a bigger prison, so why leave?"
Monet replied calmly, using dark gray paint to spread over a large area on the top of the canvas.
Ron's face twitched when he heard such Buddhist remarks.
He tried many ways to anger Monet, telling her that Doflamingo was dead, that he was going to kill Sugar, or that he had raped her, but the result was that the other party was always calm, with no emotion in his eyes. .
The psychiatrist told Ron that this was most likely a new type of autism... Instead of shutting himself in the small inner world, which is sensitive and fragile, the other person allowed his heart to accommodate the entire big world, where nature and man are one, without self or self. beg!
Coupled with the unknown effects of Devil Fruit, Monet has become an autistic patient who is detached from the world.
In short, Monet is an autistic person who has become a god himself. Isn’t God magical? !
And you thought that was all
wrong!
If it was just like this, Ron would throw Monet to Crane to cleanse his soul without saying a word, and then turn it into his own military exploits.
The reason why he kept Monet was because he found some incredible changes in Monet's body after he woke up... As we all know, although users with natural fruit abilities have the effect of "elementalization", making their bodies and clothes immune to most attacks, But the body is still the body.
The heart is still beating in the chest, and the blood is still flowing through the veins.
Need to eat, need to breathe.
But Monet is different.
At this time, Monet is not so much a person with the natural snow fruit ability, but rather an ice cube turned spirit.
There are no internal organs, no blood cells, and the whole body is composed of accumulated snowflakes. There is no need for food or oxygen. Even breathing is more like imitation based on body memory.
It can be said that apart from appearance, Monet at this time has no connection with human beings.
Ron had cruelly stripped her naked and disembowelled her with his armed and domineering fingers, but he still couldn't find any proof that she was human. Afterwards, he piled up broken ice on the ground, and Monet came back to life intact and returned to the room with an expressionless face.
So Monet was detained by Ron. Almost no one knew her special nature. The most outsiders knew was that there was a prisoner on Ron's ship.
Who would trouble a powerful lieutenant general in the navy
Does it matter who Ron imprisons
Ron was choked up by Monet's Buddhist answer. Ron was silent for a moment and found that the ship sailing on the canvas was in crisis.
A dark cloud appears in the distant sky, electric snakes dance wildly in the dark cloud, and a storm is coming.
"What do you think you are now, Monet..."
After finishing speaking, Ron quickly added, giving him a choice: "Is it a human or a snow fruit?"
He was really afraid that Monet would give him a Buddhist answer of "I am myself."
Monet: "I don't know..."
Yes, this is more Buddhist than "I am who I am"! !
No solution!
Ron felt that he could no longer communicate well with Monet. Maybe bringing Sugar could help her regain some normal emotions, but Sugar was taken away by Li Ruisi, and there was no guarantee whether she would live or die.
"Hey! What is this!"
…
A few days later, the West Sea.
The full name of the country where "Queen of Thousand Faces" Rosa is located is "United Nations of the Four Domains of West Island", which was formed by the merger of four small countries on the island that once disliked each other. "Huadu" is a nickname given to it by the world, not a formal name.
In comparison, the "Land of Flowers" is much more formal.
Not only is "Flower Country" used in official documents, but unlike the flower sub-regions of the Flower Capital, flowers of all seasons are planted in one place in this country, and you can see flowers of different seasonal climates blooming in one place. The most famous tourist attraction is Rainbow Slope, where rainbow flowers grow all over the mountains and fields, and it is a sea of flowers all year round. At the same time, as a cosmopolitan country, the withering and reincarnation of plants between seasons is something that even flowers with a fixed climate cannot experience.
Now in the twelfth lunar month of winter, after entering the West Sea, the climate suddenly becomes colder. Navy soldiers put on thick velvet military uniforms and stood guard on the deck.
The notice was sent to the officials of the Kingdom of Flowers a few days ago. At this moment, Ron led the soldiers to stand in front of the deck, waiting for the Kirin to slowly enter the port of the Kingdom of Flowers.
Plop, plop…
The iron plate stirred the anchor and stirred up mud on the bottom of the sea. Amidst the rolling white waves, the huge Qilin was the first to stop.
The leader of the Kingdom of Flowers looked at the Qilin in awe. Such a majestic beast was beyond the imagination of the Kingdom of Flowers. The king believes that the cannon ports scattered all over the ship are not just decorations.
"Line up and salute!"
Bang!
There was no one after another, only a deafening collision was heard. The navy soldiers on both sides of the stairs moved in unison, raising their hands on their foreheads, showing the strong discipline of the navy.
Organized, undisciplined.
That's a rabble.
Be organized and disciplined.
They are the iron-blooded elite soldiers.
And this is the navy that suppresses the sea!
Compared with the Kingdom's army in the Kingdom of Flowers, where even the ceremonial flagpole is crooked, the navy's army is worthy of being called an army.
Wow!
The cloak of justice was blown by the cold wind. Ron, wearing a long white military uniform, walked down the stairs with several guards and went straight to the Lord of the Kingdom of Flowers.
"Welcome to the Kingdom of Flowers! Lieutenant General Ron! The long journey must be very difficult, right?"
"King Xiaolong made a strong statement, and it is our duty to do so!"
Ron and the king with a funny name shook hands with each other and suddenly felt a little emotional.
Once upon a time, he followed Garp to the Kingdom of Flowers, and he was just a miscellaneous soldier. As Garp's foil, he was received by Rosa. The scene was so clear that it seemed like it happened yesterday. But now the leader of a country is polite to him, and the fleet behind him completely obeys his command. It's really... things are different and people are different!
"It's cold outside, Lieutenant General Ron, let's go back to the palace first."
"please!"
