Chapter 587 The Flower of Omniscient
Until the end of the headquarters meeting, even if the navy's senior think tanks tried hard, they could not figure out the reason why White Ghost suddenly appeared near O'Hara Island in the West Sea on the Abyss.
And Adrian didn't know that just because he casually let go of the naval branch warships patrolling around him, the atmosphere in Malinfando would become suspicious and solemn in the next few days.
But even if he knew, he wouldn't care too much.
Not to mention that the distance between the Navy Headquarters and the West Sea is very long. At the speed of naval warships, it would take at least more than a month to get from Marineland to the West Sea.
And if the Navy Headquarters really sends senior generals to the West China Sea, such as Navy Marshals, Headquarters Admirals, heroic veterans, etc., Adrian will be even happier.
It would be wonderful if a few more S-level challenge missions could be interspersed with this peaceful return plan~
With Adrian's current strength, even top naval combat forces like Sengoku and Garp can easily press him to the ground and fight!
Even if it's one against two, it's not impossible.
As long as the navy really dares to send people, Adrian will dare to kill it!
Among the abilities and expertise of the top experts in the sea, one or two is never too few, and seven or eight is never too many.
The screen returns to the West Sea.
Under Rumi's skillful control, the Abyss stopped steadily around the coast of O'Hara Island. Several people on board disembarked and landed on the island in an orderly manner.
Adrian stood on the beach, a red light flashed in his eyes, and his full level of domineering power easily covered the entire island.
In his perception, O'Hara Island is now lonely and cold, with almost no living creatures.
The Demon-Slaying Order attack by the World Government and the Navy Headquarters has a devastating impact on the ecological environment of the island!
Six or seven years have passed since the original demon-slaying order, and the environment on O'Hara Island still shows no sign of recovery. Even the black smoke from the artillery fire has not been completely washed away.
Robin, who looked solemn, led the way.
Perona, who was flying in the air, followed closely beside Robin. In the past few days since she obtained the Piaopiao Fruit, the little girl has almost never touched the ground.
Keenly aware of Robin and Perona's depressed mood, Runti and Peggywan also followed them silently without saying a word.
Among the group of people, only Adrian and Love seemed more relaxed, but they did not interrupt the silence rashly.
Ten minutes later.
Several people rushed from the edge of the island to the center of O'Hara Island.
A towering thousand-year-old tree originally stood here, and it also symbolized O'Hara's true reputation in the sea - the island of omniscience!
It is a pity that due to the fierce artillery fire of the Demon-Slaying Order, the omniscient tree, which symbolized O'Hara's thousand-year history and infinite knowledge, was almost interrupted. The dense crown fell into a cloud of dust and was reduced to handfuls. With fallen leaves and dead branches, only a thick dead tree stump was left in place.
Robin walked around the stump of the Tree of Omniscient, his delicate palms gently brushing the rough and dry bark, his eyes filled with deep reluctance and regret.
"Brother Adrian, can I go and take a look at the Tree of Omniscient Library?"
Robin turned his head and asked softly.
"There may be a lot of books and materials left there."
"Go ahead." Adrian nodded, "But don't have high expectations."
When the World Government's demon-slaying order came, almost all the items that Adrian transferred to the Fortress were some relatively important ancient historical materials or rare books. Due to time constraints and space constraints, a large number of ordinary books were It has not been moved and is still placed in the Tree of Omniscient Library.
What Robin mentioned at this time were those relatively ordinary books and materials.
But it is obvious that although the agents of the World Government are not sure what the specific content of O'Hara's scholars is, but in line with the vigilance of "catch the wrong, never let go", they also moved those ordinary books away Once it's empty, anything that can't be taken away will be destroyed on the spot.
After a while.
Robin and Perona walked out of the dilapidated entrance of the Tree of Omniscient Library, only bringing out a dozen seemingly intact books.
The number of more than a dozen books seems to be quite a lot, but this is the [Omniscient Tree Library] that claims to collect the world's knowledge!
Under Adrian's instructions, Rumi used his power to carefully transfer the more than ten dusty books into the Fortress and put them away.
"I didn't expect to find more than ten books."
Robin deliberately pretended to be surprised, but his acting skills were a bit poor.
Even the most natural Runti noticed her low mood and quietly stuck out her tongue.
"The true value of the Tree of Omniscientness is not greater than a few books." Adrian said harmoniously, "The real wealth is those scholars who have mastered knowledge."
Robin pursed her lips. It was not that she didn't know the reason, but she still couldn't accept it.
During most of her childhood, the Tree of Omniscientity protected her from wind and rain, and she also found the meaning of continuing her life from the books in the Tree of Omniscientia.
Even from a certain perspective, the Tree of Omniscient means as much to Robin as to his family! (This can also be seen from Robin’s fruit development ability, the ‘Giant Tree Series of Moves’)
"If you feel really sorry, why not try to plant an omniscient tree again?"
Love looked at Robin and asked softly.
"Replant...the tree of omniscience?"
Robin murmured in a low voice and repeated Love's words.
Adrian gave Love an approving look. He had just planned to say something similar, but he didn't expect the little fox to take the lead.
"Robin, use your Blossom Fruit ability to sense the existence and status of the Tree of Omniscience as much as possible." Adrian reminded, "As a plant-based Devil Fruit, the Blossom Fruit may be able to help you."< br>
Robin nodded slightly, walked to the stump of the Tree of Omniscient, stretched out his hand to press the rough and dry bark, and closed his eyes at the same time.
Adrian silently activated the abilities of [Rational Analysis] and [Soul Control], and secretly observed Robin's current state.
Time passed by little by little.
I don’t know how much time passed.
Robin, who looked slightly pale, opened his eyes, and slowly pulled away his right hand that was originally holding the bark of the Tree of Omniscient.
I saw a palm-sized light green flower bud blooming leisurely in the palm of Robin's right hand. The green petals scattered and fell one by one. The delicate branches inside grew towards the sky, and the young leaves almost greedily absorbed it. With sunshine and air.
If you look carefully, the saplings blooming from the buds look like miniaturized trees of omniscience! (End of chapter)
