#1041 - Lily's Journey to the Underworld (I)

Quinn and Jhin left. They had stayed long enough, and Vegapunk could not disappear from the camera for so long to avoid being discovered. However, the two sides had officially established communication, and the conversation became much more convenient. With the help of some secret codes they had set up that year, the two sides established communication through a transmitter that looked unreliable but was actually quite sturdy.

Of course, Quinn and Jin did not take York away in the end. Just like they said before, they did not dare to gamble and could not guarantee that York would not contact the World Government again. The Four Emperors have too many things in their hands that cannot be shown to the World Government. Eve has been under close surveillance until now because of the chip in her brain.

"That's about it. Vegapunk will delay as much as possible for half a year, and we must complete the task of safely dismantling the Mother Fire within this half year."

Quinn said to Lily.

"Okay, go ahead and do it, but don't worry too much. Get some rest tonight. Jhin, you stay here. I have something to ask you."

Lily said as she looked at the two people who came back in a hurry.

"Then I'll be leaving first, sis. Oh yeah, where's brother Kaido?"

Quinn nodded. He could guess what Lily wanted to say, so he didn't ask much. However, he still asked about Kaido's situation. He seemed to have not seen Kaido recently.

"He took the boys from the Straw Hat Pirates to train. Just like before, he found an uninhabited island to play a battle royale. If you want to find him, I can tell you where he is."

Lily shook her head and smiled.

“No, no, no, forget it. I’ve been too busy with work lately. I really don’t have time for extra training. It’s just that the previous experiment with the blue ball hasn’t been completed yet. I wanted to ask where Chopper went. Turns out he went to training. Hahahaha. I’ll leave first then.”

As Quinn spoke, he slipped away with great speed and smoothness, which was jaw-dropping. It was hard to imagine that a fat man could move so smoothly.

"Alas, this guy is still like this. Never mind. He has been working hard enough recently. I won't force him. Jhin, tell me about yourself. How did you feel about meeting Vegapunk this time?"

Lily held her forehead helplessly, turned to look at Jin and asked.

"I, I don't know how to describe it. I don't know if what he said is true. Although I hope it is, I also hope it is not. But, alas, I can only say that I hope Dai will not see him for the time being."

Jhin also said helplessly that he didn't know how to face Vegapunk. He wanted to be angry, but the other party's attitude made him unable to be angry. He hoped that what the other party said was true, and it was the World Government that persecuted their clan, so that he could release all his anger towards the Five Elders, but he also hoped that the guy was lying, so that his hatred for so many years could be truly released.

The two emotions were constantly stirring in his heart, making him not know how to choose. He was in a very uncomfortable state.

"I've thought about Dai's problem. Until now, Dai has always believed that Eve is just another experiment of Vegapunk. Although it's not wrong to think so, it also prevents Dai from resenting Eve. If you are rational, then Dai is obviously emotional. I can't say which of the two situations is better, but as of now, I still hope that you can look at these things rationally."

Lily also knew that what she said was irresponsible in some ways. After all, the other party's possible genocide enemy is right in front of her. Asking the other party not to seek revenge is itself a wrong behavior. This is very inconsistent with Kaido and Lily's usual personalities. But there is no way. The current situation is too special. There can be no slackness in the war with the World Government. No one can guarantee what the World Government has in its hands, so Lily can only say this against her will.

"I understand, Sister Lily. In fact, this is what I think as well. Although Vegapunk is definitely not what he said and has nothing to do with this matter, at this time, he is not our main enemy. We can even become allies with the Navy now. Why can't we tolerate a Vegapunk?"

Jhin said with a smile.

"I'm sorry, Jin, I've wronged you, but if we can win, I will be the first to help you get justice, Jin."

Lily stood up and patted Jhin's shoulder. The boy who was only as tall as her chest back then has now grown taller than her. Time flies so fast.

"Don't worry, Sister Lily, I understand."

Jhin nodded. He didn't blame Lily or Kaido. He knew that this was a helpless compromise in the real world. No one in this world is the real protagonist, and it is impossible for everything to go as planned.

"Go ahead, go back and rest for a while. Elena is worried at home. Her current condition is not suitable for excessive emotional fluctuations."

Lily said with a smile.

"Okay, then, Sister Lily, could you please help me come up with a name?"

Lily's words made Jin's face turn red, and he scratched his head unconsciously.

"Oh? Shouldn't you, as a father, be the one to come up with one?"

Lily looked at Jhin and smiled.

"Well, according to our tradition, a child's name should be given by a respected elder. We no longer have any elders, so, thank you for your help, Sister Lily."

Jin scratched the back of his head and said, his current appearance is completely different from the cold and handsome appearance he usually displays.

“Hahahahaha, okay, I’ll help you. Go back first and go see Elena.”

Lily nodded and said, and Jhin didn't say anything else and turned back to go home.

"A name? It wouldn't be wrong for me to come up with one, but it's better to follow tradition."

As Lily spoke, flames ignited on her body, and the next moment, she disappeared into the hall and came to a secluded place.

"This is it. It's easy for me to find it."

Lily fell from the sky, and below her was a tribe that looked very strange. It was strange because, on the surface, it seemed to be a very backward tribe, but upon closer inspection, she found that these seemingly ordinary tents actually had various mechanical structures.

Inside this strange tribe, a man with white hair, wheat-colored skin and black wings on his back is carrying out tasks that seem important but are actually completely useless.

That’s right, this is the underworld, and these people are all dead. They don’t want to reincarnate, and they have resentment in their hearts. The things they repeat are just to prevent themselves from being swallowed by the breath of the underworld and forgetting everything in their hearts. These people are all from the Lunalia tribe.

"Alter can't hold on any longer."

A female Lunalia said to the old Lunalia in front of her, if you look closely at the appearance of this female Lunalia, you will find that she is 70% similar to Dai.

"Really? That's normal. After all, Abel and Alina haven't come here for so many years, which means they should be alive. Art is most worried about the two children. It's normal for Art to give up after knowing that they are fine."

The old Lunaliya sighed and said.

"Is there no other way? Chief? I don't want Art to leave so soon." said the female Lunalia.

"Alas, there is nothing I can do. This is not something we can decide. I know you and your spouse have a deep affection for each other, but our power cannot affect the world. Otherwise, we would not be here."

The old Lunalia said that he didn't want any of his tribesmen to disappear, but not everything could be changed according to one's wishes.

"I want to ask, is this Art the father of Abel and Alina? And this one, are you their mother?"
