Chapter 229
The white clouds in the sky don’t know when to drift by. Under the blazing sun, the white gas slowly evaporates, revealing the silhouette of Lin Tian stepping on the sea.
Taking a few steps lightly, Lin Tian came to a black shadow, it was a powerful corpse floating on the sea, Lin Tian couldn’t help but sigh.
Even if you are a powerful person, as long as you are a Devil Fruit Ability User, you can’t escape the Heaven and Earth’s Rule, you can only drown.
cough cough cough…
Lin Tian, who had not suffered any injuries, suddenly coughed. He coughed more and more aggressively until the end.
puci!
A mouthful of blood spurted out, and Lin Tian’s face paled a lot, and his head should be sore and sweaty. He quickly took a pill from his pocket and swallowed it. Lin Tian felt much better, but his face was still pale.
Feeling his body for a while, Lin Tian might as well show a wry smile. It seems that he still can’t use that kind of power, and the damage to his body is more serious.
With a light step, he appeared again tens of meters away. Just when he was about to take the second step, Lin Tian thought for a while, and turned around.
He reached out towards the void, and slowly pull out a black scimitar that is several meters long, in a semi-circular shape, and radiates a dark light, and swipes it towards the awesome corpse on the sea.
The scimitar took off his hand, quickly rotated it, and made a black light circle. In an instant, it cut through the waves and quickly cut through the awesome body. With a clean break, bright red blood spewed out and quickly dyed the sea into red.
Seeing this, Lin Tian retracted the scimitar and walked towards the dock with confidence. There are still many things waiting to be handled.
In the flash, Lin Tian has already come to the pier. With several leaps, he came to the place where Rio died, but when Lin Tian came back, Ellie, who was originally here, has disappeared. Only the ground was covered with meat and blood.
Looking around, but there was still no figure of Ellie. Lin Tian touched the back of his head helplessly. It seems that everything that he does, makes people put resentment on him.
He shook his own head slightly. Lin Tian expelled the extra thoughts in his mind, and he and her just met. After today, it must be extremely difficult to even meet each other.
After retreating several steps, Lin Tian stopped until he retreated to a relatively acceptable place, Lin Tian stopped, and raised his right hand to the front, closing his eyes.
After a while, Lin Tian suddenly opened his eyes with a mighty wind.
He flipped his right hand, palm facing up, slowly rising, the ground began to shake slightly, and pieces of rubble jumped up.
Following Lin Tian’s movements, on the ruins ahead, pieces of broken meat, as well as broken organs inside the human body, slowly rose up little by little, and finally gathered into a circle, suspended in mid-air.
Although Rio has nothing to do with him, Lin Tian also had an indirect reason to a large extent. Out of guilt in his heart, collecting his scattered bodies and letting him go into the soil for safety was the only thing Lin Tian could do.
“Come out!”
At this time, Lin Tian yelled. After that, he just stood quietly like this, as if waiting for something.
Then, there was a sound of rubble falling to the ground, and a white-headed girl came out from behind, still holding a rifle that was obtained from a pirate or the marine in her hand.
When collecting the corpse just now, Lin Tian found that there was someone behind him and realized that Ellie did not leave, but kept hiding around here.
“It seems that you think your big brother died because of me.” Lin Tian didn’t turn around, but seemed to know everything and said calmly.
“Yes.”
It was the first time she had taken a gun, and pointed it at someone. Adding the person in front of her, Ellie was not nervous- she was just faking it- and both of her hands were slightly trembling.
She said with hatred in her tone: “If you hadn’t come to this island, we might not have come here today, or if you hadn’t chased the pirate, maybe my brother would not have been caught. All this is your fault.”
“Indeed!” Lin Tian nodded and replied: “Perhaps I didn’t kill your big brother directly, but I was an indirect murderer. I’m a large part of the reason.”
“Really? You admit it yourself. In this case, I must…”
“Avenging your brother? Do you think that the burning iron in your hand can cause me harm? No! It’s of no use to me.”
The calm words may be a bit ugly, but they are stating an undeniable reality. Even if Ellie does not want to admit it in her heart, but this is the reality.
Da!
In the face of reality, Ellie is so weak, even if her heart is full of unwillingness, what can she do? Throwing down the rifle in his hand, her arms hang weakly.
“This…”
Lin Tian, who turned around, looked at the scene in front of him, shocked. Even the words that came to his mouth were held back alive, sinking back into his belly.
“Ellie” is no longer the past “Ellie.”
Just after a few minutes, her heart has changed drastically. Even the appearance is like this, the black and beautiful hair has disappeared, replaced by a pale silver color like an old man.
Lin Tian had always believed that when people are full of sadness and their black hair turns into white hair is just a rumor that didn’t expect it would happen in front of him…
But remembering what happened to Ellie, Lin Tian could hardly be shocked. Once a beautiful and happy family was shattered… Only two siblings were left. They were the only ones who are left alive. Now, only a sixteen-years old is left alone in this ruin.
In particular, the empty eyes, even Lin Tian was also shocked at this. The eyes can see the world in a person’s heart. But what Lin Tian saw in her eyes was only gray…
In appearance, she’s still human, but she doesn’t count as one anymore. She has no nostalgia and yearning for the world. She is alive as if she is dead, which is best described by the words “A Walking Corpse”.
“Hey…” Sighed in the dark, Lin Tian walked forward and said softly: “I’ve killed that pirate. Your big brother has been avenged.”
Hearing this, a hint of agility flashed in Ellie’s hollow eyes, but she still fell silent.
Thinking about it, Lin Tian clenched his teeth and said: “I got a news that the pirate captain who attacked the town is not that guy I just killed. There’s still a secret mastermind behind him. He’s the one who gave the order. Niubi was just a subordinate.”
Hearing these words, Ellie’s empty eyes slowly developed expression, and Lin Tian was pulled back from the gates of h.e.l.l.
Her eyes were full of hatred.
Seeing the change in Ellie’s eyes, Lin Tian’s eyes flashed with helplessness and worry. He didn’t know if he really saved her or harmed her by doing so.
A person who lives by hatred; even Lin Tian can’t predict what kind of impact it will have on the already turbulent world.
With his right hand facing backwards gently, the floating blood cell flew in front of Ellie, “This is your brother’s body. You can do anything with it.”
Crack, bang!
Raising the gun, pulling the bolt, aiming, shooting a series of actions are like flowing water.
And Lin Tian was already stunned. With that level of proficiency and speed, how could she be the same as the little girl who was trembling with the gun just now? Some Marine elite soldiers can’t match that set of actions..
The sharp bullet directly pierced the blood cell, and the blood cell that had suspended by Lin Tian’s strength broke apart and fell to the ground.
“One day, I will bring that person’s blood here and pour it on this place.”
Slap, slap. Lin Tian slapped his own face. Showing a sad face, he felt he had made a wrong decision that he would regret.
“Next, what are you going to do?” Lin Tian asked.
Ellie expressionless, said coldly: “Follow you.”
“What.” Lin Tian waved his hand quickly, a hundred disagree, “I am an adult. How can I take a girl like you? It’s dangerous to follow me. No, absolutely not.”
But Ellie didn’t seem to hear Lin Tian’s words, and she still said coldly: “From your tone, I can tell that the person is very strong, at least you’re not sure about it… “
“That’s…” Lin Tian was speechless for a while, and didn’t know how to refute it.
Just listen to Ellie continue to say: “Although I don’t know how strong you are, from the words of that pirate, I can infer that you’re a famous powerhouse in Grand Line.”
Lin Tian looked at Ellie’s eyes with a curious and puzzled expression. Could it be that not only the personality has changed, but even her IQ has increased?
Even so, Lin Tian still didn’t answer anything out loud. But Ellie was not discouraged, and continued: “Even you’re cautious, indicating that that person must be very strong, and it may be difficult for me to get revenge, but if there’s a strong person as my teacher, you, my hope will increase several times.”
“Wait a minute,” Lin Tian stopped abruptly, and asked some unbelievable: “Are you sure you didn’t make a mistake, you want to be my student?”
She nodded, Ellie’s tone was full of sadness, “My brother and I would have asked you this anyway.”
Lin Tian understands that on the surface it is a sad memory, but in fact she was playing emotional cards, forcing him to make a choice.
Covering his forehead, Lin Tian thought about it carefully. After all, this kind of thing came too suddenly, Lin Tian had never thought about this kind of thing. He was still twenty years old, and he actually accepted students?
Don’t look at Ellie’s face calm, in fact, she was more nervous than Lin Tian. A powerhouse will have some quirks, she didn’t know if this kind of thing would anger Lin Tian, but Ellie can only do this now.
After a while, Lin Tian said: “Impossible. I won’t accept you as a student.”
Ellie’s heart immediately sank to the bottom, and the thing she worries the most has happened. It’s not happening. What should I do? Do I really rely on myself, but when can I achieve my goals?
Lin Tian’s conversation turned, “I won’t accept you as a student, I’ll accept you as a disciple.”
