Chapter 890 Cyrus’ Thought Changes
·
Ying Jie Bi Ye Sheng
There was once a saying that the death process of a person is divided into three stages:
In the first stage, when your heart stops, your breathing disappears, and your brain stops functioning forever, at this time, you are biologically declared dead, which is what most people think of as death;
The second stage is when you are buried, and people wear mourning clothes to attend your funeral. Under their witness, it is officially announced to the entire society that you no longer exist in this society and that you have quietly left this world;
The third stage is when the last person in this world who still remembers you finally forgets you, or he also dies physically. At this time, you are truly dead. From then on, the entire universe will not be the same. It’s not about you anymore.
However, Sugar's Childlike Fruit can directly skip the first and second stages and directly enter the third stage. When you are turned into a toy by the person with the ability of the Childlike Fruit, the entire universe will no longer be related to you. The memories about you and everyone in the world about you will disappear directly, and even your "past" will be directly "deleted".
Of course, the original words of Sugar in the original work are, "As long as you touch it with your hand, everything about you will disappear completely from the world."
But physical records such as photos, written records, and statues will not disappear. For example, the photos of Rebecca's family of three, the cooperation between King Riku and Cyrus, etc., all undoubtedly record the existence of Cyrus. Unfortunately, even looking at the photos, Scarlet and Rebecca's mother But the woman could never remember Cyrus as her husband and father.
In addition, the ability of the "childlike fruit" can form a contract with the person turned into a toy, making it impossible for them to move freely according to their thoughts and obey orders, and the person turned into a toy will be erased from the memory of other people.
However, what is "painful" is that after being turned into a toy, in addition to losing freedom, it still has its own consciousness, its own emotions, and its "lifetime" memories. This is very difficult for the person who has been turned into a toy. It is definitely a kind of great torture, just because they turned into toys, they can't even make a simple expression to express their emotions, and they can only hold back all their emotions...
Even a strong-willed person may be driven crazy or stupid over time. What is not yet known is that although the "childlike fruit" will stop the growth of a person with abilities, it is not known whether it will affect the lifespan of a person with multiple abilities. What impact it will have, and what impact it will have on the lifespan of those who become toys, are still unknown.
But one thing is certain, that is, if a person who is turned into a toy dies in the form of a toy, it is also a real death. Through this characteristic, it is doomed, no matter how strong the person is, once he is hit This kind of ability is almost a fatal situation!
"It permanently turns into a toy when the person with the ability is conscious." This is considered the most fatal flaw, or weakness, of the Childlike Fruit. As long as the person with the ability of the Childlike Fruit loses consciousness, then the ability of the Childlike Fruit will be If they fail in an instant, all the toys will return to their original state, and the memories deleted by the "rules" will also return in an instant...
For Doyle and the people in Bafu, the easiest way to turn the "one-legged toy soldier" back into Cyrus is undoubtedly to make the ability user Sugar lose consciousness once, so that Cyrus can return to his original shape instantly. .
However, Doyle did not choose to do this. After all, there was naturally a reason why he asked Tezzolo to bring the person back. If it was just to rescue this "Mr. Soldier", even if he directly "requested" more It is completely feasible for Flamenco to change people back...
A smart person like Doflamingo would not fight against the behemoth Bafu just for the sake of a dispensable "prisoner". You know, with the strength of Tezoro's "Golden City", It was enough to compete with him, Doflamingo, not to mention that there was an entire tyrant behind him.
……
The ability of the "Childlike Fruit" is at the "rules" level, and coincidentally, the "hell realm" ability possessed by Doyle's "Eye of God" is also close to the "rules". Its ability effect is that it can It allows people to completely return to their "peak" state in life without any side effects.
Therefore, Doyle is very curious, when there is a conflict between two "rules", whose ability and "rules" will be more powerful, and whether the "hell realm" has the ability to reverse the form of a person who has been turned into a toy state. Or is it only possible to turn a one-legged toy soldier back into two legs?
According to Doyle's understanding of the "hell realm" ability, it is most likely feasible. After all, Doyle can check the specific description of the ability from his "attribute panel". It is clearly written on it that it is to restore people to the peak state of their past life, then, become a "toy" It can be regarded as the most fragile state in most people's lives, and returning to the human state should also be regarded as a necessity to "return to the peak".
Regarding the idea of this "experiment", Doyle also told Robin in advance. Robin's views are probably consistent with Doyle. As a scholar, Robin has always been unambiguous in terms of logical rigor. .
However, Doyle has another idea, that is, if he leaves "this world", will the rules of the Childlike Fruit still take effect? For example, Doyle wants to do a small "experiment" next, allowing Scarlet and Rebecca to leave "this world" temporarily, try and then go to another world to see if they can remember the quilt. The memory "blocked" by the fun fruit.
……
The location they are in is a "laboratory" specially set aside for Doyle by Mr. Alpha in the No. [-] laboratory under the island in the middle of the lake. It is also the "training ground" that Doyle usually uses. It is even as strong as Comparable to Doyle's "Susanohu".
At this time, Cyrus, who had become a "one-legged toy soldier", gave Doyle an extremely certain answer, "Your Majesty Doyle, I am willing to obey all your instructions. I just ask that you can restore me and be able to Give my family protection, then I will live according to your will for the rest of my life!"
The toy soldier who looked a little funny actually said such serious and serious words that people temporarily forgot that this was just a "toy". Even after finishing speaking, the one-legged toy soldier knelt down on one knee. There is no doubt that he is really offering his loyalty to the blond young man in front of him...
Scarlet and Rebecca couldn't help but be moved when they saw this scene. Even though Rebecca still had a confused look in her eyes, she still blurted out "Mr. Soldier".
Scarlett was holding a pendant in her hand, and the photo inside was a family portrait of their family of three. However, Rebecca in the photo was still a baby, being held in Scarlett's hand, and the tall man was Cyrus, who had been forgotten by their mother and daughter, was the one-legged toy soldier in front of them...
Speaking of which, ever since they were quietly taken away from Dressrosa by Tezzolo's subordinates, Princess Scarlet, in particular, has been filled with questions. She wants to know who took them away and who Who wants to see them, will Doflamingo continue to send people to hunt them down, and who is this one-legged toy soldier who is accompanying their mother and daughter?
Along the way, the merchant ships they boarded were all merchant ships with the highest security level under the Umbrella Group. Since they were the people Doyle had told him to meet, the Umbrella Group did not dare to neglect them and gave them the best treatment along the way. good treatment...
This undoubtedly made Scarlet feel more at ease. No one caused trouble for her along the way, and the Don Quixote family never appeared. Scarlet could vaguely realize that she Already escaped from birth.
Scarlet has been hiding in Dressrosa for a while, so she also knows that in the Don Quixote family, there is a devil fruit user with the ability to turn people into "toys", but the specific ability is She had never seen that before, but that was why she was not surprised by the existence of toy soldiers...
However, Scarlett did not know the specific abilities of the Childlike Fruit, so naturally she did not know that there was a problem with her memory... No, in fact, she was still aware of some problems, such as her husband and children. Where has his father gone? Why is the man in the family photo so... strange?
All of this is full of contradictions, especially Rebecca. As a sensitive child, she can realize that she seems to have forgotten something particularly important, but she can't remember it anyway.
On the contrary, this "toy soldier" traveling with their mother and daughter took very good care of their mother and daughter along the way. Unfortunately, this soldier was always taciturn and never said a word no matter what the mother and daughter asked...
……
However, who can understand the heart of Cyrus, a sword fighter with strong bones? Faced with a sudden enemy, even if the enemy deliberately gave the Riku royal family a few days, so what? The Liku royal family can't even get that much money out of selling iron, and the poor are just poor.
However, even if you want to resist, you are destined to be unable to resist. As the king of the Shichibukai, Doflamingo is backed by the World Government. Coupled with his status as a member of the Don Quixote family, it is obvious that he will face such a situation. , even if Dressrosa is a member of the World Government, the navy is destined not to "meddle in other people's business"...
Therefore, the ending of the Liku family is destined to be tragic. As Cyrus' father-in-law and close friend, Liku Dold III had an unparalleled kindness in knowing him. No matter how severe the situation was, Cyrus It is impossible for a scholar to just sit idly by and do nothing. This is his character.
The result was that Cyrus cut off his leg in order to save King Riku, and before he could even deal with any of his enemies, he was caught off guard and turned into a toy soldier by Sugar's Devil Fruit ability. The only thing that made him feel better was, King Riku did indeed escape temporarily and was not arrested or killed by Doflamingo on the spot. This... was enough.
It's a pity that although he is in the new world, Cyrus's vision is still limited. He has stayed in Dressrosa all year round, and although he has some basic understanding of Devil Fruit, as far as he is concerned , in the three thousand battles in the bullfighting arena, at most I have seen animal-type devil fruit abilities, and I am extremely unfamiliar with superhuman-type things.
He obviously underestimated the ability of Devil Fruits, not to mention that what he encountered was one of the most "terrifying" Devil Fruits, the "Children's Fun Fruit". If he was just turned into a toy soldier, and then lost his freedom and was controlled, he would be in trouble. Lu Shi can at least accept and endure, and then hopes to escape one day...
However, things were not that simple. It was not until later that Cyrus realized that the moment he turned into a toy, there was no trace of him in the whole world. He quietly went to see his wife Scarlett and Xiaolei. Beka also went to see her comrades who had fought side by side with her and had close friendships, and even secretly ran to see King Riku, but without exception, she had disappeared from their lives and minds!
This also made Cyrus truly feel fear. He was obviously still alive, but to the whole world, he did not exist. No, there was still someone who knew about his existence, but that was his enemy, Don Quixote. The little girl with abilities in the family...
After reaching this conclusion, Cyrus almost collapsed, but thinking that his wife and daughter were still being hunted by the Don Quixote family, Cyrus couldn't care so much for a while.
Taking advantage of the fact that his "master" Sugar didn't give him any orders, Cyrus had been secretly protecting his wife and daughter. Although he lost a leg and turned into a toy, his combat effectiveness was not as good as before, but he could deal with several The little minions of the Don Quixote family are still fine.
Until one day, Cyrus witnessed a battle from a distance that truly refreshed his three views, that is, the time when Tezolo came to his door. At this moment, he finally understood what a real strong man looked like. , that is a force that can rival Doflamingo, and a force that can confront the Don Quixote family...
Unfortunately, before he had any thoughts or actions, Tezzolo and his party left. However, this also allowed Cyrus to see some possibility. As a pirate in the new world, Doflamingo could not always remain If you continue to live so peacefully, once the situation changes, you may be able to fight. In any case, as long as there is hope.
In this way, until Tezzolo came to Dressrosa for the second time, that is, the time when he took away "Violet" Violet, the three members of the Cyrus family were also secretly taken away. However, at that moment, Although Cyrus didn't know what the other party's purpose was, for some reason, he felt extremely calm. After all, what could happen to Iai no matter how bad he was?
