Chapter 181 He and She
"Did you come to see my joke?"
The woman was not surprised by the sudden appearance of Lorne, and said with a little self-mockery.
Lorne shook his head, sat on the edge of the bed, looked at the wound on the woman's face, and said softly.
"You look pretty good like this."
"If you just want to say something like this meaningless consolation, then please go."
The woman raised her hand, trying to drive Lorne out, but Lorne grabbed her.
"Anxi."
Lorne turned his head and called out to the little girl in a white dress.
Hearing this, the little girl walked gently to the side of the bed, closed her eyes, and plucked a feather from the wing behind her. Handed it to Lorne.
Lorne touched the wound on the woman's face with the feather, and the crack healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon there was only a faint scar left.
"If you rest for a while, you won't be able to see it."
"Hehe," the woman snorted coldly, and pulled her hand out of Lorne's palm.
"Even you, do you just regard me as a beautiful woman?"
"A vase?"
The woman's eyes turned cold.
"Think I got everything with this skin?"
A small sandstorm gathered in her hands, ready to strike at any time.
All her life, what she hated the most was when someone made a fuss about her gender and appearance.
So in the end, she even found a cadre of the Revolutionary Army, "Shemale King" Ivankov. Made that deal.
Lorne was silent.
And Garrett glanced at Lorne meaningfully, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't speak after all.
Instead, he pulled Anxi with a confused face, and walked out with Bu Lei who was in a state of surprise.
Only Lorne and the woman were left in the room.
Really sensible sister.
Lorne looked at Garrett who left quietly, and praised secretly.
Then he looked at the woman with his dark eyes.
"The you I saw before were not like this."
"Where is that woman who despises Shichibukai, Moonlight Moriah, and puts her ambition on the top of the world?"
Lorne took out a cigar and handed it to the woman sitting on the bed.
Just like the woman handed him a cigarette back then.
"What does a temporary failure mean?"
"Maybe."
The woman took Lorne's cigar and smoked it slowly. The smoke filled the air, but her pupils suddenly became colored.
"Whitebeard's power is very strong, and his strength is unrivaled."
The woman exhaled a smoke ring and said helplessly.
After personally witnessing the power of Whitebeard Edward Newgate that can destroy almost everything. Her confidence took a huge hit.
I'm even thinking about why One Piece "Gol D. Roger" can defeat Whitebeard and reach the end of the great route, Ralph Drew's.
But now she suddenly figured it out.
"But so what, the bigger the goal, the stronger the thrill of conquest, isn't it?"
The sand storm in her hand dissipated, and the woman seemed to have turned into the king Qiwuhai who looked down upon the world with contempt.
"I will challenge Whitebeard again."
"And never fail next time."
"Because I'm Crocodile!"
"It should be like this!"
Lorne exhaled a mouthful of thick smoke and said with a smile.
There are many wonderful laws in this world. For example, sometimes you hate a person inexplicably, even if this person has no flaws.
Sometimes I will inexplicably catch eyes with a person, thinking that this person is very compatible with my personality.
This thing is called compatibility.
And Lorne and Crocodile belong to the kind of people who are very compatible.
"I'm also ready to challenge Shiji."
Lorne said suddenly, with a smile on his face.
"When the time comes, how about we bring down the emperors of these two new worlds together?"
...
Outside the room, Garrett was pacing back and forth at the door, her heart seemed not very peaceful, while Anxi followed Garrett's pace and shook her head.
But soon felt a little dizzy. He supported his head and sat obediently at the door.
"Do you think brother Lorne likes that kind of mature woman?"
The girl with burgundy curly hair suddenly walked up to Anxi, looked down at her breasts, and said annoyed that there was still a gap between her and that woman.
"But doesn't Brother Lorne like me very much?"
An Xi thought about it seriously for a while, and then said seriously.
She didn't understand what this beautiful big sister said. Didn't brother Lorne always call her a little angel?
"You are still young and don't understand."
Garrett squatted down slightly, looked at the delicate and lovely little girl like a porcelain doll, and said softly.
"Like and like are sometimes different."
"What does it feel like to like?"
An Xi tilted her head and said in a daze.
"I like it," Garrett was about to say something, but she didn't know how to speak, and swallowed the words that reached her throat.
"Forget it, you are still young, you will understand when you grow up."
"Anxi also wants to grow up quickly!"
The little angel stood up and gestured to herself and Garrett.
"If you want to grow up to be as big as your sister, then no one will treat Anxi like a child."
Looking at the cute look of the little angel, Garrett seemed to think of herself back then.
From Lorne's point of view, there is no difference between himself and this little girl, right?
He's always treated us like his sister and acted like a good brother.
"But, I don't just want to be a sister."
Garrett murmured suddenly.
And the more mature Bree, has been standing aside, thoughtful.
She saw Lorne's latest reward before.
Up to 1,000,000,000 (billion) Bailey, which has surpassed most of the brothers and sisters in the Charlotte family.
I'm afraid only brother Katakuri can overwhelm him.
Although Katakuri's bounty is not as good as Lorne's now, in Bree's heart, Katakuri has always been the most powerful and perfect brother in the world.
If Garrett can marry him, mother should allow it, right?
After all, in the eyes of the mother, her children are just tools for her to marry the strong and expand her power.
It doesn't matter who you marry, as long as it helps you.
Bu Lei was thinking blankly by herself, but she didn't notice that An Xi had quietly walked to her side.
Gently waving her pure white wings, Anxi flew in front of Bu Lei, stretched out her small white hand, and stroked the ugly scar on Bu Lei's face.
"It's ugly, isn't it?"
Bree said in a self-deprecating manner that because of this scar, she is not even qualified to be a tool for her mother's marriage.
But it was precisely because of this scar that she was able to accompany her dear brother Katakuri.
"no."
Anxi shook her head, then pulled out a feather from her wing. Gently place it on this blemish.
The feathers turned into white particles of light, covering the scar on Bree's face.
After a burst of itching, Bree subconsciously touched the scar on her face.
