I Have No Interest In Devil Fruit

   Chapter 875 Postscript [Lin Qi]

   Twenty years later, there are two worlds.

  The world of Qinghai, and the world of Baihai in the sky at a height of 10,000 meters.

  The vast ocean and the islands dotted on the Great Route, and the cities that are emerging one after another on the red earth continent that surrounds the world, constitute the former.

Taking the "empty city" above the five Tianshan Mountains as the hub, and uniting the urban network composed of various "empty islands" that have existed in the sky since ancient times, this truly new world is formed on the White Sea— —And the transportation network that connects these white cloud islands, the miraculous feat, was accomplished by the cooperation of the legendary engineer and inventor Franky and the weather queen Nami.

Together, they planned a transportation system that would accommodate most of the empty islands, and then Nami built a set of "highways" with Haiyun technology, and Franky made a "Frankie" specially for these complex highway systems. Sky Train". It is said that these Haiyun highways also have French memory alloys added, so they have a strong self-healing function. This was most effectively demonstrated in a targeted attack that blew up a highway a few years ago.

   The attacker attempted suicide. According to the investigation of the Ranger Association, the promoters behind the sabotage were several member states of the World Government, but all the royal families of the latter firmly denied this and directly held the Dragon Snake Flower Alliance accountable. The next day, as the representative of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, the Queen of the Flower Country visited the Free International, a firm partner of the Dragon Snake Flower Alliance for 20 years, and had a cordial meeting with the leader of the Free International...

   That’s right, the world government still exists. However, with the increasing diplomatic influence of the Dragon Snake Flower Alliance, the member countries of the World Government are also losing day by day. Twenty years later, the world government has become a nominally loose little alliance, and only a group of little aristocratic kings who reminisce about the history of the world's aristocracy 20 years ago are left to enjoy themselves.

   Correspondingly, the navy that once served the world government has gradually become an unofficial civil organization. Most of those who adhere to the banner of the justice navy are only some old-time veterans. After all, in today's era, young people want to stand out, want to be chivalrous, they can try to join the Ranger Association, with a good reputation, many benefits, high status... Join the navy? Picture what?

I heard that someone in the Navy directly proposed to cooperate with the Ranger Association, and the radicals even thought that the Navy should be merged into the latter and become a nominally independent but de facto sub-association in order to better pass on the banner of justice—— It is said that Admiral Smalls was very angry about this.

  The reason why Xiaoda remembered some deeds about the navy was because she was on the way to the Ranger branch in this empty city in the South China Sea, and she was swiping her "mobile phone" and saw some discussions about the navy. The daily humiliation of the navy and the daily humiliation of the world government can be said to be a cultural custom in today's era. Xiao Da's parents were pirates before they got official ranger status. In the old days 20 years ago, they had hostile relations with the navy and the world government. She read these discussions with great interest.

Speaking of pirates, in fact, in today's "Ranger Age", there are also pirates. There are two main types. One is that some of the official rangers seem to have special feelings for the "Pirate Flag", so they spontaneously Although they are rangers, they still like to call themselves pirates. When these people meet and chat, they must be called Luffy; there is another kind of pirates in the true sense—— I have to admit that in today's era of "flooding" of rangers, it can be said that the guys who dare to burn, kill, and plunder the sea in the traditional sense are quite hardcore. It can't be said that they are not afraid of death. If you don't want to die, you usually end up being a fresh stroke on the resume of a single-flowered ranger or a double-flowered ranger.

   Yes, rangers "flood". Compared with completing the tasks assigned by the association, the real "ranger" behavior of punishing the traitors and eliminating evil is more conducive to the promotion of the rangers. Therefore, the case of taking the head of a black and evil force for thousands of miles without taking a penny is in the case of the Ranger Association. Not uncommon. You don't do it, and some are chivalrous people who do it. This year, the Ranger is also not good at rolling.

   Thinking of the promotion of the Ranger, Xiao Da thought of his exam the day after tomorrow, and couldn't help speeding up his pace.

  It is difficult to become an official ranger, but after more than ten years, looking at the world, there are also a large number of single-flowered rangers at the lowest level, so the most common way to promote is to take an exam - every year, at the headquarters of the Ranger Association. Passed, you can wear the double flower badge. As for how to become the ranger with the smallest number, the highest level, and the top three flowers, there are different opinions, and every three flower ranger in the existing association is a world-famous legend: One Piece Luffy, Hades Suo Takashi, Nami the weather queen... Ace the beard, Yamato the ghost... Mihawk, the red-haired Shanks...

   "Please show your ranger badge."

   Hearing the words, Xiao Da came back to his senses, took off the Ranger badge with a lily flower from the back of the "mobile phone" and handed it to the staff at the front desk of the branch.

   At this moment, the originally noisy association hall suddenly became quiet. Even the staff member opposite Xiao Da suddenly looked nervously in the direction of the gate.

Xiao Da could hear the nervous swallowing noises in the hall one after another, and some people panicked trying to avoid something and bumped into the table and chairs and made a noise, and then was blamed by his companions in a low voice... Xiao Da turned back in confusion. Looking around, she jumped in her heart when she saw that tall and arrogant figure.

  The eldest sister of the Chamber of Commerce complimented her in the morning. If she can pass this test, she will break the record at the age of fourteen and become the youngest double-flower ranger! Xiaoda does not comment on this, it is such a so-called record-breaking, in front of this woman's deeds, it seems so insignificant...

   "It's Lin Qi..."

   "She actually appeared here..."

   "Good luck! We should go down now and go to the 21st floor to try our luck..."

   "Suddenly rising like a meteor, it only took two short years to become a ranger with three flowers gathered..."

   "Nonsense, don't you look at her name? This name, such a domineering trick-"

   "Shhh!!"

  The rangers in the hall tried their best to keep their whispering voices low, and also consciously avoided when the tall young black-haired woman passed by with a blank expression.

  Xiao Da is also watching this Lin Qi, who everyone has vaguely reached a consensus, is the daughter of Lin Dasheng... Yes, she is most likely Lynch's daughter. This widely circulated statement was basically regarded as a default after she became a Sanhua Ranger in the second year of her debut. Lin Qi, who became a Ranger in the first year of her debut, was actually very low-key. Although she was harassed a lot because of her low-keyness, most of them silently disappeared. The change occurred in her second year with a ground-breaking record - she It took a year to subdue all the double-flowered rangers registered in the Ranger Association, and named several three-flowered rangers one after another. The joint name agrees, and after becoming a Sanhua Ranger with an undisputed resume, he completely stopped pretending.

   She no longer acts in a low-key manner, and her domineering style makes the whole world immediately think of one of Lin Dasheng's wives. It was also after that, people successively discovered the stone sculptures of some of the people who had harassed her sinking to the bottom of the sea.

   His name is Lin Qi, his style is domineering, his appearance is beyond description, and he seems to have the ability to make people petrify...

   And Xiaoda was convinced that Mr. Lynch did have a daughter with the Empress.

   She hesitated, it was rare to meet each other, can she go and say hello?

  I heard from my father before that I met this sister when I was a child, although I was still in the baby at the time, I don't remember it at all...

   As she pondered on the spot, Lin Qi, who regarded everyone as non-existent like air, had been carefully brought into the branch by the staff. Even if she doesn't talk about her identity as the child of Lynch and the Empress, with her three-flowered ranger face, she can directly swipe her face in any ranger association in the world. Of course, there is no need for a single-flowered ranger like Xiaoda. , and especially show the Ranger badge to go through the process.

   "Name: Zelda; Age: 14; Permission: Single Flower Ranger... I have signed up for this double flower exam. Identity confirmation."

The staff at the front desk returned the badge to Xiao Da and smiled kindly, "So you are a famous genius ranger in the South China Sea in the past two years! Are you going to take the double-flower exam at the age of fourteen? It's incredible, you have a future. Infinite..."

   "Thank you." Xiao Da took the badge back and affixed it on the back of his "mobile phone", "So, when is the last train to West Sea Sky City?"

"The exam is the day after tomorrow. It's rare to come to the empty city, don't you want to go shopping?" The staff said with a smile, while checking the "tablet" at hand, there was a lily flower with a slightly different color and pattern on the back. Badge, "Let me see... the nearest train is at 12:30 noon, and there is still more than an hour."

   "More than an hour..." Xiao Da nodded, it seemed that he could still have lunch, and he happened to be wandering around this empty city in the South China Sea. After the exam, she plans to go home and bring some souvenirs from Nanhai to her father. However, are the things of the Nanhai Empty City considered a specialty of the South China Sea?

   As she was thinking about it, she didn't notice that the staff's expression had become stiff. When she turned around, she found a person standing behind her, blocking her way.

  Lin Qi, who did not know when to appear, folded his arms, looked down at Xiao Da, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Zelda?"

Zelda noticed that almost all the eyes in the hall were gathered on their side, which made her a little nervous. Eyes - she mustered up the courage to look up, and she avoided her eyes with a bit of inferiority, and nodded.

"Ace's daughter?" Lin Qi said again, her gaze resting on a pair of horns emerging from Zelda's white hair, she had already confirmed the identity of the other party, "Are you going to take the double-flower exam? Let's go. , just happened to be on our way." She raised her chin, there was an unmistakable taste in her tone, and without waiting for Zelda to respond, she turned around and walked towards the door.

   The crowd is separated. After watching Lin Qi go out, a pair of eyes turned to Zelda.

  Ace's daughter?

   Is that Three Flower Ranger Ace? !

  People who can become rangers, even single-flower rangers, most of them have mastered the domineering and domineering, and have heard a little bit of the conversation between Lin Qi and Zelda just now.

  Zelda ran out without waiting for these people to react.

Lin Qi didn't wait for her, there was a vast white island cloud outside the branch gate, Zelda opened her eyes to search, and released Roger Fire Cloud in the weather stick, and then hurriedly caught up with Lin Qi who was walking towards the edge of the island cloud. ——Ahead of her, on the Haiyun Highway that was not in the Sky Train Station, a Sky Train with the Dragon Snake Flower Alliance flag on its head slowly stopped, and the door was just opened when Lin Qi arrived.

  Lin Qi went straight in.

  Zelda came with Fire Cloud Roger, looking at the sky train and hesitated for a while. In fact, Lin Qi didn't seem to notice that she was coming, which made Zelda wonder if she should follow the train. If she made a mistake, it would be embarrassing... She was so cranky, the train kept going all the way. Lin Qi's head stuck out of the door that was not closed, and gave Zelda a dissatisfied look at Zelda, who was hesitating in mid-air.

  Zelda stuck out her tongue, urged Roger, and hurriedly flew into the open door of the sky train. Soon, the train started and the doors closed behind her.

The car was empty, only Lin Qi was sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed. After flipping through the two pages of the magazine that she had put aside, she tapped on the table with her fingers, and soon several waitresses were carrying a serving. A plate with a lid came over, filling most of the table.

   "Drinking?"

  Zelda was stunned for a moment, only to realize that Lin Qi was asking herself, and hurriedly said: "No..."

  Lin Qi had snapped the necks of two bottles of wine, pushed one of them directly in front of her, grabbed the other bottle, raised her head and drank it.

"Why don't you talk?" Lin Qi drank it dry, threw the wine bottle, and dropped it into the trash can in the corner. He crossed his legs and grabbed a fork to pick up a piece of steak, shook it lightly, and handed it to Zelda. He raised his eyebrows and smiled, "You should call me sister."

   She smiled faintly, as if the lilies were blooming, and the ice and snow had melted, finally letting Zelda's nerves that had been slightly tense relax.

   "Last year, I asked your parents for a duel, and I heard that they named you Zelda, really..." Lin Qi shook his head, "It's a pity that you weren't there at the time, otherwise we would have known each other."

   "I..." Zelda mumbled, took three or two bites of the steak, and asked in confusion, "Is my name weird?"

   "How can I say this..." Lin Qi smiled narrowly, "I think you are very suitable to be my brother's friend."

   "Sister Lin Qi's younger brother?" Zelda was very curious.

   Lin Qi said: "My name is Finch. Boya Finch."

   "Huh?" Zelda's eyes widened, "Lin Qi is a pseudonym!"

   "Learn from my old man!" Lin Qi, no, Finch, didn't know what to think, and pouted, "Also, strictly speaking, 'Lin Qi' is not a pseudonym."

  Zelda muttered: "It's easy to confuse your father's name..."

   "Just mess around, who cares?" Finch said, "How about you, I heard you when you registered at the club front desk just now. You are only fourteen years old this year. You are only fourteen years old, and you ran out to be a ranger?"

"You're only a teenager..." Zelda continued to mutter, and when she noticed Finch glanced over, she immediately said cutely: "I also learned from my parents! My mother said that her biggest dream when she was a child was Even escaping from the house, I've fulfilled her wish..." Under Finch's calm gaze, Zelda lowered her head and muttered, "I want to prove that I can do it even without their protection. It's a great thing! I want them to impress me..."

"Then you should change your bloodline again." Finch laughed, "Your father Ace and mother Yamato have both integrated abilities, one is a natural flame, and the other is an illusionary beast. As their children, If you don’t want to be great, that’s the more difficult thing.”

  Zelda glared at Finch resentfully, although this seemed to be the truth, but the elder sister said it too rudely.

   "Where's Sister Finch?" Zelda changed the subject, "They all said that you inherited the power of Medusa from the Empress, but there are other rumors that your power is actually something else..."

  Finch joked: "I do have other abilities. Do you want to try?"

   She stretched out her hand to lift Zelda's chin, and a line of foam flowed from her fingertips... Zelda shivered, shocked and shy, and sat stiffly on the spot with a flushed face, which made Finch laugh.

   This was the first time Zelda saw Sister Finch laugh like this, and for some reason, she was also happy.

  The sky train runs along the straight sea-cloud "highway" between the vast white and white seas towards the west sea, like a steel dragon soaring in the clouds.

  In the carriage, Zelda and Finch talked and laughed, and the chat became more and more harmonious.

   Suddenly, Finch took out her Sanhua Ranger badge, stuck it on the back of the unfolded "tablet", clicked on the notification notification in the Ranger software, and the smile on her face gradually faded.

what happened? Zelda was very curious and wanted to take a peek, but she didn't dare. She turned on her "mobile phone" and quickly understood after entering the Ranger software. A new topic quickly became the hottest topic, and the number of views and replies soared at a speed visible to the naked eye... The focus of the topic was a task that was newly released a few minutes ago. A quest that calls on a specific ranger to complete.

   "Task requirements: Obtain at least 100ml of fresh blood from the Nine Snake Empress Boya Hancock"

   "Publisher: Navy"

   "Designated Ranger: Sanhua Ranger, Lin Qi"
