One Piece: Copy Talents Starting from Elbaf

Chapter 20: Chapter 21: The Broken Dream of the World Government



Roy tied up all the children, then grabbed the rope with both hands and dragged them as he left the Lamb House.

He didn't know how long Pirate Captain Long Bread could last, but Roy dragged the children towards the shore, heading to evacuate the area.

"Hey, come over here, hand them over to me!"

A somewhat familiar voice came from behind a giant rock in the distance.

A giant's body appeared from behind the rock, waving at Roy.

"!" Roy looked at the children, who were tied together like a line of grasshoppers, then at the giant hiding behind the rock.

At that moment, he finally remembered what detail from the plot he had forgotten.

Ah, besides the hiding Long Bread, there was also a hiding giant.

These two were the only people who had seen Linlin's rampage this time.

"Quick, come with me, we'll go back to Elbaf, let that monster fend for herself!" The giant hurried over, carefully picking up the children and placing them in his hands. He then motioned for Roy to step onto his hand and sit there.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The giant turned and ran, the ground trembling beneath them, with Pandora flying beside them.

"I originally came to check on the Lamb House, but I ended up seeing that awful monster!" The giant explained as he ran.

He remembered the terrifying scene when Linlin "killed" the nun and couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine, his face darkening.

The giant, who had once been closest to Roy, no longer cared for him. He cursed the monster to Roy's face.

Roy remained silent, reaching for Pandora, tightly holding it, and rubbing it.

Sigh, if he had remembered the giant hiding in the plot earlier, he wouldn't have gone through the trouble of tying the children together like grasshoppers.

Damn!

Pandora remained quietly in his arms, letting him squeeze it.

Thanks to Linlin, her actions had successfully pushed Pandora to Roy's side.

Now, Pandora didn't even refuse his constant rubbing.

It felt like a success in training~

Well, Roy's acting on the surface was good, otherwise, if others knew what dark thoughts filled his mind all day, it would be bad.

Most likely, once he got back to Elbaf, Aruru would probably kick him out.

The giant ran all the way to the shore, boarded a giant pirate ship, and set Roy and the children down. He then pulled up the anchor submerged in the sea and steered the ship away from the island.

"We'll never come back. Elbaf will always be your home, and we will never return here!" The giant didn't dare to look back at the island, repeatedly repeating this phrase.

Honestly, the things Linlin had done had scared him so much that he had developed a psychological trauma.

"She... she swallowed everything without a trace of blood," the giant thought of the horrifying scene and instantly recalled what Aruru and the others had said: Linlin was a natural-born evil god.

"Hmm," Roy nodded, settling the children inside the cabin before sitting outside and enjoying the sea breeze.

The ship was carrying some wood and supply boxes. The giant had indeed come to check on them and deliver some supplies, but he hadn't expected to encounter such a situation.

Roy took out the log pose and permanent pose from the nun's package.

Since he could hitch a ride on the giant's ship and return to Elbaf, of course, he was willing.

Sigh, he hadn't expected to part from Helding and the others so soon, only to meet them again so quickly.

He glanced back at the island one last time and silently said goodbye to Linlin.

The short and happy time together was coming to an end. Hopefully, the next time they meet, they can still be friends.

As for something more than friends?

Forget it!

He didn't like Linlin, and he wasn't about to follow the system's order to fall in love with her.

After all, the talent card he received now had already given him a godly starting point.

Roy thought that in the future, the people he would live with or love should be those he liked, not the ones the system chose for him.

Besides, he truly didn't feel any "liking" towards Linlin.

"Take a rest for a while. After experiencing something so terrifying, I've made things difficult for you," the giant sighed as he spoke to Roy.

"Hmm." Roy rubbed Pandora, shaping it into a pillow, then lay down to rest with it as a cushion.

As for Linlin killing the nun, would Roy be afraid of seeing dead bodies?

Not at all. Since he had crossed over, he had seen too many dead people.

That was 800 years ago, during the great war that marked the so-called blank 100 years.

There were dead bodies everywhere. As an insignificant figure in history, Roy had seen his fair share of corpses.

He was numb to it by now~

Before crossing over, Roy had lived as a model citizen in a city with strong morals.

As for why his heart had turned so dark, maybe it was because of what happened 800 years ago~

On the island where the Lamb House was located.

"Whoo~ I thought I was going to die."

Long Bread barely escaped from Linlin's grasp and managed to shake her off.

Lying on the grass, Long Bread looked at the blue sky, trembling all over.

He felt that being stared at by Linlin like prey, like she was drooling at him and hunting him to eat him, had left him with a psychological scar.

"Where did everyone go?"

In the distance, a familiar and frightening voice echoed.

Long Bread immediately sat up, terrified, and looked towards the jungle.

Then, he heard the sound of someone crying.

"Ahh, where did everyone go? Nun, everyone..."

"This... this damned monster!"

Long Bread was so scared that he jumped up and tried to run away.

"Wait!"

He suddenly felt something was wrong and hurriedly turned around to walk carefully toward the source of the sound. He parted the grass and peeked at the girl standing there, crying.

So, she regained consciousness?

Long Bread thought to himself, but the fear of being chased earlier made him shiver uncontrollably.

"There's another child." Long Bread turned and left. He would rather take the smart child and teach him to become a pirate than see this girl again.

Long Bread ran all the way to the Lamb House, seeing the ruined house and the empty surroundings with no other children in sight.

He thought for a moment and then turned to look for that child.

"Huh? Who are you? Do you know where the nun and everyone else went?" Linlin had just returned and blocked Long Bread's way.

History is truly interesting. Even though Long Bread had been scared half to death by Linlin and didn't want to deal with her anymore, Linlin, who had been led away by him, coincidentally ran into him again.

"..." Long Bread was speechless, wondering how to deceive this girl.

Meanwhile, out at sea.

A World Government ship was slowly sailing towards them. They had money with them, ready to buy children from the nun.

The World Government had already planned to train Roy to be an admiral loyal to them, with the goal of making him a future fleet admiral.

Then, they planned to train Charlotte Linlin to become the strongest shield for the Celestial Dragons.

They thought they had made a huge profit with this deal.

And then...

Hilarious!

Roy rolled up the money and ran away~

Linlin?

She was about to be tricked into becoming a pirate~

The people traffickers from Hidden Mountain?

They're done for~
