Post-Apocalyptic America: Synthetic 3D Female Protagonist

Page 197

"Come with me to my room."

Yamato led Su Hui, tiptoeing through the ancient and solemn Japanese wooden corridors of Oni Island.

Her tall figure led the way as she walked through the intricate Japanese-style wooden corridors of Oni Island.

Moonlight streamed through the lattice window, casting dappled shadows on the dark floor, making the two figures' shadows appear longer and shorter.

Su Hui followed behind, his gaze fixed on Yamato's back.

Even though she deliberately hunched over, her height of over 2.5 meters was still extremely eye-catching. The wide white robe could not hide her innate fitness and strength, which formed a wonderful contrast with the girlish excitement and innocence on her face.

obviously,

Right now, Yamato is still a child who hasn't grown up, and is incredibly innocent.

This made Su Hui ponder a question.

That's the current point in time!

He needs to determine the current time as soon as possible, specifically what year it is in the Haiyuan calendar.

This is directly related to all his subsequent plans.

After passing through several corridors, Yamato led him to a huge paper door. After confirming that no one was around, he quickly opened the door and pushed Su Hui inside.

"boom."

The door was closed gently.

Inside the door was a rather spacious Japanese-style room, but the furnishings were surprisingly simple, even somewhat empty, with only some basic furniture, which was out of place with the luxurious overall style of Oni Island.

Yamato sat down cross-legged without any hesitation, the huge shimenawa rope swaying at her waist with her movements.

Her clear, bright golden eyes were now gleaming with an irrepressible light as she stared intently at Su Hui.

Back in her room, she was clearly relieved and became much more relaxed.

"Tell me! Tell me!"

"What is this other world like? Are all the people here like you, who fell from the sky?"

Her voice was filled with childlike curiosity and excitement, as if she had discovered a brand new treasure.

Su Hui looked at her innocent and carefree appearance, but his heart remained calm.

Creating a detailed fantasy story nowadays is not only mentally taxing, but also prone to revealing flaws.

He frowned again at just the right moment, pressed his hand to his temple, and a look of pain appeared on his face. (Note: The last sentence appears to be an unrelated advertisement and has been omitted from the translation.)

"Sorry... my head... hurts so much..."

His voice was hoarse, as if every breath was aggravating his wound.

"what!"

Yamato's excitement was instantly replaced by worry, and she scratched her unusual long hair, which was a gradient of snow white and green, with some annoyance.

"I'm so sorry! I forgot you were still injured!"

She was pondering this with distress when suddenly her eyes lit up.

"Oh, right! I'll take you to Uncle Quinn! He may be a freak, but he's a very skilled doctor and can definitely cure you!"

"Quinn?"

Su Hui sneered inwardly.

The image that flashed through my mind was of an obese man with scorpion braids who loved to dance and create viruses.

Queen the Plague, one of the "Big Bosses" of the Beasts Pirates.

A mad scientist with a bounty of over a billion.

Su Hui didn't believe that this guy, who was obsessed with creating all sorts of viral weapons, would be kind enough to treat him after discovering that he was an "otherworldly visitor."

More likely, he was used as a rare experimental subject, sliced ​​and studied.

"No need."

Su Hui weakly shook his head and decisively rejected her suggestion.

“I can sense that my injuries are unusual, and the intervention of external forces may make the situation worse.”

"Huh? Then... what should we do?"

Yamato was at a loss and looked at him helplessly.

"It's ok."

He looked at Yamato, his eyes filled with a pleading expression.

"I just need a safe place to rest for a few days and recover. May I stay here for a few days? I'll leave as soon as I've recovered a bit."

"No problem at all!"

Yamato agreed without hesitation, and a smile returned to his face.

Then,

She looked at Su Hui with those longing golden eyes.

That look clearly showed that he was still thinking about the story of the other world.

Su Hui chuckled inwardly at Yamato's adorable appearance, but still took the initiative to change the subject.

Before you tell my story, can you tell me something about this world?

He looked at Yamato and asked seriously.

"For example, could you tell me what time it is now? I mean, the year."

"Now?"

Although Yamato was somewhat puzzled, he answered honestly.

"It is now the end of winter in the year 1519 of the Haiyuan calendar."

She seemed to have thought of something unpleasant, and her previously excited expression instantly fell. However, the topic seemed to have sparked her conversation, and Yamato began to complain.

"That wretched old man! Every time I want to go out to sea, he drags me back! And he even chains me up with sea stone handcuffs!"

"If he hadn't stopped me, I could have gone to the Flower Capital to stroll through the flower streets and see the dancers."

She complained angrily, then her eyes lit up again as if she had remembered something interesting.

"You don't know! I've heard there's a dancer in the Flower Capital named Komurasaki! Rumor has it she's the most beautiful woman in Wano Country! I really want to see for myself just how beautiful she is!"

As she spoke, she thought of Kurozumi Orochi, who ruled Wano Country, and the legendary hero Kozuki Oden, and her little face immediately puffed up with anger.

"And that despicable Orochi General! Just thinking about him makes me angry. One day, I will defeat him like Lord Kozuki Oden and open Wano Country to the world!"

The girl's emotions changed very quickly; her happiness and worries were written all over her face without any attempt to hide them.

Su Hui listened quietly, seemingly listening to her complaints, but in reality, his brain was working at lightning speed, piecing together these fragmented pieces of information into a complete world map.

Haiyuan calendar year 1519.

There are still three years until Luffy, the future Pirate King, officially sets sail.

Little Purple?

It must be Hiyori Kozuki, the eldest daughter of the Kozuki family. I didn't expect her to be famous in Wano Country so early.

Based on the timeline, Ace should have already made a name for himself on the Grand Line by this time, but it would still be some time before he defeated the Seven Warlords of the Sea and became famous throughout the world.

In other words, he has not yet become Whitebeard's son.

Meanwhile, Blackbeard Teach, who would later shake the world, was still loyally acting as his son at this time. It wasn't until two years later, in 1521, that he accidentally encountered the Dark-Dark Fruit, killed his companion, and defected to the sea.

All the major events of the future have yet to truly begin.

Just as Su Hui was pondering his future plans, a familiar yet cold voice suddenly rang in his mind.

It's Merlin.

[Master, the energy of the spatial passage is more stable than expected. Your estimated stay in this realm is approximately 120 days.]

I will remind you again before the deadline.

120 days.

Four months.

There was more time than expected.

Su Hui's eyes deepened, and the previously vague plan in his mind instantly became clear.

Looking at the Yamato in front of him, who was recounting the story of Kozuki Oden with indignation, two choices flashed through his mind.

Firstly, once his strength is restored, he will secretly take Yamato, who yearns for freedom, and sneak out to sea, heading straight for Dressrosa to find "Heavenly Demon" Doflamingo.

Using his own strength, he defeated Doflamingo and controlled him with the "Seed of Loyalty." After that, he could use Doflamingo's Celestial Dragon status to establish connections with the World Government. At the same time, he could use his identity as "Joker" and his vast underground network to quietly lay out plans in the New World.

The advantage of doing this is freedom, without being restricted by anyone.

However, the downsides are equally obvious. In the vast new world, without a permanent compass, setting sail for Dressrosa is no easy task.

Sailing into the New World was an extremely time-consuming and perilous undertaking.

Secondly, there is a more direct and riskier option.

Su Hui's gaze seemed to pierce through the walls of the room, looking towards the highest point of Ghost Island, at the top of that giant skull.

They went directly to the island's owner, Kaido of the Beasts.

Try to form some kind of alliance with that "world's strongest creature," or... make a deal.

The benefits of leveraging the immense power of the Beasts Pirates, one of the Four Emperors, are obvious. The Beasts Pirates' influence is unparalleled; even Doflamingo is merely a high-ranking partner under Kaido.

The downside, of course, is that you have to face Kaido's terrifying strength, which can be described as monstrous.

This choice carries enormous risk, but the rewards are equally astonishing.

The thought of facing Kaido's terrifying, calamity-like strength made Su Hui's blood boil uncontrollably.

A palpable fighting spirit flashed across his deep eyes.

"Ok?"

Yamato, who had been chattering on and on, suddenly stopped talking.

She keenly caught the fleeting change in Su Hui's aura.

The man, who had seemed weak and confused just moments before, now had eyes that were like unsheathed blades, making her instinctively feel a pang of fear.

The excitement and anger on her face vanished instantly, replaced by a seriousness and solemnity stemming from her fighting spirit.

Her golden eyes were fixed on Su Hui.

Su Hui concealed his aura and looked at her sudden change in appearance, asking with great interest.

"what happened?"

"You... ah, I still don't know your name. You can call me Yamato."

Yamato scratched his head, his expression somewhat uncertain, but his eyes were unusually serious.

"Judging from that feeling just now, you seem to be quite a strong person as well."

Just a moment ago, she felt a terrifying aura emanating from Su Hui that sent chills down her spine.

That's not the look of a weakling.

"Su Hui."

Upon hearing this, Su Hui smiled.

"I am a swordsman too."

He looked into Yamato's eyes, which were lighting up again, and threw out an irresistible lure.

"Perhaps I can grant your wish. How about I take you out to sea with me after I recover from my injuries?"

"Let's go see the world together."

"Really...really?!"

Yamato's eyes widened instantly, a huge surge of joy welling up inside her, making her almost jump for joy.
