The days when I wanted to be a human being

Chapter 214 Incense is poisonous

After returning to Windmill Village, Zhou Ling once again began a life of fishing, catching fish and going to sea.

Go to Alabasta from time to time to maintain interpersonal relationships and replenish the spiritual energy of the clone.

On this day, Ace came to her with a new partner.

Looking at the little boy with a top hat, golden hair, and holding a steel pipe.

He looked at Zhou Ling in disbelief.

When I first met Ace, he always said he had a great godmother.

Sabo also thought that Ace was just bragging.

I didn’t expect that Ace’s godmother would be the swordsman Myo who made a big move in the Grand Line just after becoming one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea some time ago.

"Godmother, this is my new partner, Sabo, can he join me in training?"

Ace smiled happily.

Zhou Ling took a look and turned his head back to the fishing rod indifferently, "Whatever, I have no objection. It's just one more person to be beaten."

Not to mention one more, even if there were dozens more it wouldn't have any impact on her.

As for Sabo's shocked look, Zhou Ling felt that it was nothing. After all, the news of him becoming one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea had already spread everywhere.

It's not surprising that a child could recognize her.

"That...godmother..."

Ace still stood there, as if he was too embarrassed to say something.

"Um...what to do? I agreed, so I can go to training."

"that is…"

"Ace, you're not a kid anymore, can you please stop being like this?"

Ace seemed to gather his courage and took a deep breath, which confused Sabo, as he had known Ace for a while and had never seen Ace like this before.

"Godmother, the pacifier is almost finished."

After hearing what Ace said, Sabo, who was standing by, opened his mouth and his eyes widened as if they were about to pop out.

Ace glanced at Sabo, curled his lips in silence, and muttered, "Tsk, I knew it."

Looking back at the two little brats, Zhou Ling smiled, and laughed very ostentatiously, "Okay, okay, you kid, it's just this matter, there's nothing to be embarrassed about, don't forget the agreement with your godmother."

After saying that, he took out a palm-sized box and handed it to Ace.

"When you're done eating, come back to me for more. Don't be shy."

Zhou Ling smiled happily. This matter was totally unimportant to her now. However, in order to prevent Ace from developing the bad habit of asking for everything without asking for anything, she restricted some things.

For example, the green pill can only be taken when the clone is training him.

The small box can only be opened by the clone, and the training can only be completed after the entire box of small pills has been consumed.

After watching Ace, who looked happy, and Sabo, who looked confused, leave, Zhou Ling returned to his calm state.

I habitually wanted to turn it into a glass of water to drink, but stopped abruptly.

She remembered something and finally didn't make the water hot to drink.

...

A year later, Luffy also joined the training duo.

One time when Garp returned to Windmill Village during the holidays, he told her that someone had attacked the Holy Land of the Celestial Dragons again, and it was a fishman.

Zhou Ling did not comment on this matter. It was bound to happen sooner or later. She did not forget that she had done the same thing before, but later the Five Elders asked her to become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Then they should have anticipated this day a long time ago.

...

And so, several more years passed.

Because Crocodile made big moves from time to time and disrupted the greening operation, Zhou Ling had to extend his time in Alabasta.

The clone can easily suppress Crocodile, but the problem is that it seems that it is not only Crocodile who is targeting her, but also some pirates who come here because of her fame.

Although it didn't take much effort, it increased the consumption of the clone, forcing her to come here frequently to replenish the clone's spiritual energy.

Later, in order to save trouble, she stayed in Alabasta.

The Donghai Windmill Village only has one clone left at most.

On this day, another pirate landed in Alabasta.

Originally, according to the rules of the Grand Line, as long as you stay long enough and wait for the pointer to point to the next island, you can go to the next island.

Zhou Ling was too lazy to pay attention to these pirates.

But after they landed, they went straight to Crocodile.

Seems like there's some bad idea going on.

In the past few years, Crocodile has dominated the corner of Alabasta.

He occasionally sabotages greening operations.

The king endured for a long time, and finally proposed to the World Government, hoping to stop Crocodile, but found that the World Government rejected his request.

Cobra wanted to ask the navy for help, but found that because of his status as a Shichibukai, the navy was powerless to help him.

In the end, we could only allow them to occupy part of the land.

Their actions of sabotaging the greening operation annoyed Cobra, but they were unable to do anything.

Seeing that the greening campaign was beginning to be hindered and even had the situation of regressing several years, Cobra was extremely anxious.

At this time, Zhou Ling appeared and stopped Crocodile's sabotage in time.

After the greening action began to show results, the king also fulfilled the promise he had previously discussed with Zhou Ling.

She is responsible for the rainfall.

The royal family was responsible for her food and daily life.

In this way, after Zhou Ling settled in Alabasta, he lived a good life with everything provided for him.

Sitting in the rocking chair, looking at the drizzle outside the window, my thoughts unconsciously drift far away.

Zhou Ling had some ideas about improving his strength, such as faith or incense.

The greening operation in Alabasta was originally implemented by her for this purpose.

But after thinking about it for a while and seeing some things.

She rejected all the above methods.

It’s not that we can’t afford faith and incense, but that our own strength is more cost-effective.

It’s no joke that incense is poisonous.

This was something she had experienced personally some time ago.

Cobra had suggested holding a sacrifice for her before, but fortunately Zhou Ling stopped it in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

One day when it was raining on the clouds, she vaguely heard some sound.

When she followed the sound, she found someone praying to her.

I wanted to respond to the civilian's prayer, but I received a warning from the Samsara Platform.

If she used incense, there was a high probability that she would be trapped in the current world, so she naturally chose to ignore it.

Naturally, she rejected King Cobra's proposal to offer sacrifices to her, but even without the king's order, some people in the folk spontaneously performed sacrifices.

So Zhou Ling was also very annoyed by this matter.

After all, she would hear people praying in her dreams from time to time, and every time she couldn't resist the temptation to touch the incense, she would wake up unconsciously.

Worried that he might not be able to resist the contact one day, Zhou Ling reduced his sleep time.

When the mind wanders into space.
