Chapter 286: The Method to Restore Memories
"Hahaha, alright, Morley. You heard the plan just now."
Sabo comforted him gently, "To be on the safe side, let Mr. Karasu go with you."
"I know. As expected, men other than Sabo-kun are all rude!"
Morley acknowledged, then fiercely brandished his trident. "Help me punch him a couple of times in the finals, Sabo."
"I'll try my best."
"Then I'm off. I wish you a triumphant victory."
"You too."
On the other side of the resting room, Reiner recalled his own template's undead and prepared to go and rendezvous with Zoro.
The plan he had told Sabo wasn't complicated. It was just to hand over the Hobby-Hobby Fruit user, Sugar, for them to deal with.
That fake loli held the biggest secret of Dressrosa. Once exposed, the entire country would instantly fall into chaos.
The outside world didn't know about their alliance, and a chaotic situation would be advantageous for them.
When the finals in the arena started, the Revolutionaries would make their move. At that time, the Donquixote Family would be in chaos on two fronts, and it would be much more convenient for Reiner and his group to arrange any actions.
The Devil Fruits would most likely make an appearance at the start of the finals. At that time, whether it was Reiner, Sabo, or Ryokugyu, they would all instantly erupt.
Hiding their identities was just to avoid startling the snake and making the other party afraid to reveal the Devil Fruits. When the plot was revealed, who would be afraid of those small fry?
Reiner's other purpose in exposing the truth about the toy people was also to see if he could tie up Fujitora.
With a reason for arrest, the status of a Warlord was useless in front of the Marines. At that time, who knew who Fujitora's sword would swing at?
The other wasn't a Celestial Dragon; even Ryokugyu didn't have to give him face.
Besides weapons, Dressrosa also seemed to have an artificial Devil Fruit factory.
Anyway, a feud with Kaido would be forged sooner or later. Might as well go all in, steal everything that could be stolen, and burn everything that couldn't.
Speaking of which, Ace and his crew's ship was docked on the northern coast...
Nami has a job to do. Perfect.
A wild goose plucks a feather as it flies by. Reiner thought over everything that could be stolen or snatched, and finally returned to the viewing area of the resting room.
"What a pity. I thought I would get to see a reunion of the three brothers, but it turns out Sabo hasn't recovered his memory."
Reiner rubbed his chin and thought. As the Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army, it was impossible that he hadn't seen the wanted poster of Ace, who had become famous on the seas a few years ago.
In the original story, it wasn't until he learned of Ace's death in the newspaper that he was stimulated into awakening his sealed memories.
Now, Ace wasn't dead, but to meet and not recognize each other was quite a cliché.
"Is there any way to make Sabo recover his memory?" Reiner thought as he walked.
Try killing Ace later...
...that's definitely not going to work.
Asking Chopper to take a look doesn't seem very realistic either. Can memory be treated with medical skills?
Or the three-eyed girl from Totto Land?
"Oh, right."
Reiner suddenly paused. A certain figure appeared in his mind. "What about Rebecca's aunt?!"
He remembered Viola's Glare-Glare Fruit, which could use her fingers to form a circle like glasses and activate the ability to peer into others' minds.
It seems she can also use it on others, right? Can she? Did she show Sanji her own heart?
I don't know.
Hiss~~
The chaotic memories began to attack Reiner. His head itched; he was about to grow a brain.
"Sigh, forget it. There's no time to go find someone now."
Reiner temporarily put this idea aside. He'd deal with it after everything was over.
He collected his thoughts.
At this time, on the fighting ring, Luffy was fighting the leader of the Happo Navy, Chinjao.
Although he hadn't revealed his identity, because Reiner had beaten up Sai in the previous match, Chinjao had directly come looking for him.
However, Luffy clearly had the upper hand, and a round of beatings showed everyone a wave of respecting the old and loving the young.
Besides Chinjao, there weren't any other noteworthy opponents. The popular contestants the host had mentioned were all nobodies.
Reiner walked over and regrouped with Zoro. "If nothing unexpected happens, it will be over soon."
"You're back, Alan."
Rebecca smiled and nodded. Zoro glanced over, and just as he was about to be sarcastic, he was interrupted by Reiner raising his hand.
"I didn't get lost."
Zoro: "..."
"I just made contact with the people from the Revolutionary Army. We'll be cooperating later. It's that blond masked man who helped you guys just now."
"He's a revolutionary?"
Zoro couldn't help but be puzzled. "How did you get hooked up with them?"
"It's a long story. Anyway, it was like this, and then like that..."
Reiner gestured and explained the situation to him. It was unclear how much of it Zoro's little brain had received.
"Anyway, you've pulled in a group of people who will help us fight the Marines later, right?"
A corner of Zoro's mouth lifted. "He's really unlucky to have trusted you."
Expecting this guy to share the spoils with others?
At least in this aspect, Zoro was certain that Reiner and Nami were cut from the same cloth.
Heh heh, birds of a feather. Zoro showed a disdainful expression. No wonder they got together.
Reiner: "???"
What's with that look?
"Anyway, he's in the next match too. Remember not to get into a real fight with him," Reiner said, waving his hand.
"As for you..."
"Sigh~~"
Reiner patted Rebecca's shoulder, shook his head, and sighed. "Good child. Protect yourself later."
"Who are you looking down on, you bastard!!"
Rebecca bared her teeth and grabbed Reiner by the neck, shaking him for dear life.
"Wait... I'm gonna die..."
"Go to hell!"
Hic~~
He didn't die.
Reiner sat on the ground and rubbed his neck.
Rebecca knelt down. "By the way, Alan, what's this about the revolutionaries liberating this country that you just mentioned?"
"They've investigated some things about this country. The toy people in the underground factory, Doflamingo's brutal rule after he came here, and..."
Reiner casually spouted nonsense, attributing all the truth to the Revolutionary Army's investigation. Some of the things were things even Rebecca didn't know.
As she listened, tears began to flow down her face like a stream.
Reiner could understand, but it was difficult for him to feel the young girl's sorrow.
She was clearly a princess born with a silver spoon in her mouth, but she had lost her mother in her youth, and her father, though alive, had been turned into a toy soldier and forgotten by the world.
At an age when she should have been carefree, she had suffered the tragedy of both a broken country and a broken home...
Eh?
Wait, this script seems familiar.
Robin plus Vivi?
The sobbing Rebecca realized her loss of composure and kept wiping away her tears.
Reiner and Zoro looked at each other and could only scratch their heads awkwardly. They really couldn't handle this kind of thing.
For the first time, they both thought of a certain perverted cook.
"I'm back!"
Finally, Luffy's voice came from near and far. Reiner and Zoro let out a sigh of relief.
Even an idiot is fine. At least someone has come to save the day.
"Rebecca! What's wrong with you!"
Seeing her kneeling before Reiner and Zoro, crying, Luffy immediately rushed over angrily.
"Hey! Did they bully you, these two bastards! See if I don't beat them to a pulp!"
Reiner: "..."
Zoro: "..."
They had rejoiced too soon.
"It's not what you think, Lucy," Rebecca said, tugging on Luffy's sleeve, pursing her lips and sniffling.
"There are too many eyes and ears here. The next match will start in a bit. Let's find a place to sit first," Reiner said, helping Rebecca up.
"Hey! Is it really not you two!"
"If you bully Rebecca, as the captain, I will absolutely not forgive you!"
"How embarrassing, you idiot!" A vein popped on Zoro's forehead. He grabbed the shouting Luffy by the collar and followed.
