Chapter 47 So sensible it breaks your heart
Chapter 47 So sensible it breaks your heart
When west Yan found her, the little one was curled up in a dark corner, her body covered in cracks, looking like a porcelain doll about to break.
Seeing this, even the ninja west Yan felt a tremor in his heart. What an incredibly sensible little guy!
Even though it looked like it was about to die, it still chose to silently endure the pain, curling up alone in a corner waiting to die.
It was as if... as if she was afraid her friends would worry... even though she looked so small!
If he hadn't noticed something was wrong and activated his Sharingan to search, they might not have even seen each other one last time, and Mary would have died!
"But the way I look..." Mary said softly, "it will hurt them, and I don't want to see them sad..."
"It hurts me to see everyone so sad."
"It's alright...it's alright...Merry, it's alright."
Mei opened her mouth, then sighed silently and slowly closed her eyes.
Now, even if she wanted to resist, she couldn't.
Because she had used all her strength to maintain the pirate ship, she couldn't die until she got her crew to safety.
Once her companions were all safe, her mission was over.
Once on the deck, everyone's attention immediately turned to the little guy in west Yan's arms... who looked like he was about to die.
The little green raincoat, coupled with the name west Yan had just mentioned... everyone immediately understood who this little guy was!
Merry's appearance, in particular, snapped the string in Usopp's mind.
"Merry!!!"
Usopp charged forward like a madman, not even caring that he tripped and broke his nose halfway there.
Upon arriving at Xiyan's side, Usopp instinctively wanted to reach out and touch it, but then stopped himself, afraid of breaking the little guy.
"Merry?!" Luffy exclaimed excitedly, "Zoro, quick, give me a hand!"
"I want to see Merry!"
For some reason, he felt that Mary's voice was very weak, as if... as if she was about to die.
Zoro didn't say a word, but silently pulled Luffy up, put his arm on his shoulder, and walked step by step towards Xiyan.
The others also came over and cautiously approached west Yan.
"This...this is Merry?" Nami asked, covering her mouth. "What happened to her?"
"She doesn't look well..."
"Merry, Mary, what's wrong?!"
"Chopper, quick, check on Merry!"
"Everyone, please don't crowd together, give us some space!"
Everyone else did the same, afraid of affecting Chopper.
Chopper cautiously approached Xiyan and said, "Give her to me."
"I'm not sure if you can touch her."
"What do you mean?"
west Yan didn't explain, he just gestured for Chopper to do what he was supposed to do.
Chopper didn't waste any words and immediately tried to check the situation, but his hand passed right through Merry's body without any hindrance.
"Huh?!!!!"
"Why, why can't I touch her?!"
Unconvinced, Chopper reached out again, but this time he still couldn't touch Merry's body.
Chopper panicked immediately. What was going on?
If you can't touch the other person's body, it's impossible to find a way to save them.
"Chopper, what are you waiting for? Save her!" Usopp cried anxiously.
"But I can't touch her, it's like she doesn't exist."
Chopper was almost in tears. He wanted to save people too, but he couldn't reach anyone at all.
"How is that possible? Merry has a physical form!" Usopp exclaimed. "Back on Skypiea, she repaired the ship all by herself. How could she not have a physical form?"
"Perhaps it's because she no longer has the power to maintain her physical form," Grandma Kokoro said.
Usopp was stunned, his heart seemed to have been struck by a heavy hammer and stopped for a moment.
Looking at the little one in west Yan's arms, Qi Mengni was momentarily unable to accept it.
Is this little one, who looks even smaller than her, going to die?
"Why was Xiyan able to encounter it?" Nami asked.
"Because I'm a ninja."
Using the properties of Yin-Yang Escape, west Yan gained the ability to touch this little guy. Before using this ability, west Yan was also unable to touch Mei Li.
"Merry... what's wrong with Merry?!" Luffy exclaimed, looking at Merry's body, which was gradually cracking. "Why does her body look like it's breaking down?"
"Perhaps it's related to this ship."
Franky recovered from his shock and pointed to the pirate ship, saying, "Because the ship spirit was born from this pirate ship, her fate should also be connected to this ship."
Frankie didn't finish his sentence, but everyone understood what he meant.
Once the Merry is completely destroyed, Merry's life may also come to an end, which is probably why Merry's body is covered with cracks.
How could they possibly accept such an outcome?
"I don't believe it... I don't believe it!!" Usopp roared, "How could there be no way?!"
"She looks so young, why does she have to go through this?!"
Usopp went crazy; he simply couldn't accept this.
"I'm sorry... Usopp," Merry said with difficulty, opening her eyes. "I'm sorry, everyone."
"Please don't be sad for me. I was able to rescue everyone from danger before I disappeared. I... I have no regrets..."
Even now, Meili is still not thinking about herself; her sensible demeanor is heartbreaking.
"No...we should be the ones apologizing." Usopp trembled, tears streaming down his face uncontrollably.
"It's all our fault, it's all our fault for not protecting the Merry."
"If anyone's to blame, it's us."
"Everyone, I've never blamed you." Mary turned her head, glanced at everyone, and said with a smile, "I can feel your love, thank you everyone."
"Merry!!"
Everyone burst into tears, their tears flowing uncontrollably.
"Why...why!!!"
Usopp's legs seemed to have lost all strength, and he collapsed to the ground, pounding the ground with his fists and saying, "Why does Merry have to go through all this?"
Although the little guy looked to be a few years old, Usopp knew that his actual lifespan was probably only a few months!
Just a few months... to die after only a few months of life, how cruel is that?
Wiping away her tears, Nico Robin looked at Xi Yan and said, "west Yan... do you have any ideas?"
Usopp, as if grasping at a straw, sprang to his feet and ran to Xiyan, shouting, "Xiyan, save her!!"
"If you can, you must save her!!"
"Yes, Xiyan is a ninja, you must have a way, right?!"
"You're the only one who can touch her body, is there any way?!"
"west Yan, save Mei Li!!"
west Yan is the only one who possesses all sorts of strange and unusual abilities; maybe he really does have the power to save Mei Li?!
Seeing the hopeful looks in everyone's eyes, west Yan paused for a moment, then said, "I will do my best."
