Chapter 136
The next day.
Rorschach also arrived at the island where the Golden Lion’s old subordinates were stationed.
Here, more than a dozen islands formed a circular shape, but each island was not connected to the others.
However, the distance between the islands wasn’t too far — it was only to prevent some animals from causing trouble on other islands.
From Indigo, Rorschach learned that most of these islands were their experimental sites. There were a large number of special animals on the islands that had evolved from the SIQ drug.
Rorschach directly placed the Ryūyū in the very center of these islands. Several islands he had previously collected were also placed here, all left for Indigo as experimental grounds.
At this moment, Rorschach was leisurely listening to Conis playing a tune for him on the Ryūyū, while Reiju was also serving him by his side.
"Lord Rorschach, bad news!"
At this time, Pasia hurriedly ran over and even accidentally fell to the ground.
"What’s wrong, Pasia? Don’t be so flustered."
Seeing this, Rorschach also stood up and personally helped Pasia up.
"Tell me, what happened that made you so anxious?"
Rorschach helped her pat the dust off her body, then asked in confusion.
"Miss Monet has woken up."
Pasia didn’t mind Rorschach’s somewhat improper little hand and said anxiously.
"She’s awake? Is she causing trouble?"
Upon hearing this, Rorschach looked relieved. But this shouldn’t be enough to make Pasia so panicked, right?
After all, Monet was now wearing Sea Prism Stone handcuffs. Without her abilities, she shouldn’t be able to cause much chaos.
"No, I think it’s better if Lord Rorschach goes to see for himself." Pasia shook her head.
Seeing this, Rorschach’s expression became serious. What exactly had happened?
Could it be that his tap yesterday was really too heavy, and Monet didn’t make it through and died? Please don’t let that happen.
Rorschach rushed to the room where Monet was being held at the fastest speed.
After arriving at the base, Rorschach had both Shalria and Monet taken off the ship and arranged in empty rooms on the Ryūyū, so the distance wasn’t too far.
At the same time, Rorschach also released his Observation Haki to sense the area. The feedback showed that Monet’s life signature was very strong and didn’t look like she was about to die.
Bang.
The sound of the door being pushed open rang out.
Rorschach walked straight into the room.
Monet was lying on the bed. Sunlight scattered on her gentle and beautiful cheeks, and a soft, feminine aura emanated around her. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
She looked like a very gentle and kind woman.
Hearing the sound of the door, Monet, who had been looking out the window, turned her head toward Rorschach’s position.
"Hello, are you the master of this island? Could you please release me? These handcuffs are a bit heavy, and I feel weak and powerless all over."
Monet showed a gentle smile and spoke calmly.
At the same time, she raised her hands that were cuffed with Sea Prism Stone.
"Hm?"
Rorschach frowned, his expression turning somewhat serious.
What was going on? Had he really hit Monet too hard and made her stupid?
Her attitude was completely different from yesterday. She didn’t seem like the same person at all.
"What’s wrong, sir? Don’t worry, I won’t run away. I just want to feel a bit more comfortable. After all, this weak and limp state is really uncomfortable."
Seeing Rorschach frown, Monet also showed a troubled expression.
She had woken up to find her hands restrained, and her whole body felt weak and limp.
Through some information in her head, she learned that the handcuffs on her hands were made of Sea Prism Stone, and that she was a Devil Fruit user.
This was what caused her current symptoms.
"You lost your memory?" Rorschach asked in a puzzled tone.
"Lost my memory? That should be it. Right now my head feels completely empty. Other than some common knowledge, I have no recollection of my past memories or my identity."
Monet looked somewhat confused at her own hands, then showed a gentle smile and spoke.
She tried hard to recall everything from the past, but in the end, no images came back.
Now, she had completely lost all memories of her past and wasn’t very clear about the current situation. She could only honestly answer Rorschach’s questions.
However, it seemed that her identity here with Rorschach wasn’t a good one — she was likely a captive or something similar.
Could it be that she was previously this man’s enemy? That she was defeated and captured by him?
Then why didn’t he kill her, but instead saved her and even helped treat her injuries?
All kinds of thoughts emerged in Monet’s mind, but no matter how she guessed, she still couldn’t remember the reason behind things.
"I’m sorry, the shackles on your hands can’t be removed for the time being. You’ll have to live like this for a while."
Rorschach stared at Monet for a long time and saw the confusion in her actions and eyes. None of it seemed fake.
But out of caution, Rorschach still refused Monet’s request and planned to observe for a while first.
However, that confused look just now — if it was really an act, Rorschach would call her the strongest acting emperor.
"Why?
Is it because I was previously your enemy, sir? Or did I do something that harmed you? Please rest assured, the current me won’t do such things. I promise you!"
Seeing Rorschach’s firm attitude, Monet hadn’t given up yet. Holding a slight probing intent, she asked.
This sentence was also a probe to find out what she had done before. She wanted to learn some things about her pre-amnesia life from Rorschach’s mouth.
"No. Although you were indeed my enemy before, the reason I shackled you isn’t because you did something that harmed me, but because I was afraid you would try to commit suicide again."
Rorschach didn’t hide it and directly stated the reason.
"Suicide? Eh? Why would I want to commit suicide? Could it be that you saved me, sir?"
Monet was stunned. She really couldn’t imagine she had such a past — that she had tried to commit suicide and was saved by Rorschach.
"That’s right. You were saved by me. So the current you is my possession. You are mine! I won’t allow you to die so easily!"
Rorschach said with a calm expression.
He didn’t need to lie about this matter. It was also a good chance to test whether Monet had really lost her memory.
"Ara, are you confessing to me, sir? But saying such things isn’t very gentlemanly. Calling me your possession and thing... You should be a little gentler when treating a girl."
Monet showed a somewhat shy expression, covering her cheeks with both hands as if embarrassed.
"I’m just telling the truth. No matter what, I will make you my woman."
Rorschach stepped forward, held Monet’s chin, leaned his face closer, and stared intently into her eyes.
"At least we should spend some time getting to know each other first. What a domineering man."
"By the way, I still don’t know your name, sir."
Monet, being stared at so intently by Rorschach, blushed more and more. A sense of shyness welled up from her heart.
"My name is Rorschach. Remember it well. This will be the name of the person you will accompany for the rest of your life."
Rorschach released Monet’s cheek and showed a smile again.
It seemed Monet had really lost her memory. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be reacting like this.
"Pasia, notify Reiju and have her call Kaya over to check if Monet’s body has any problems."
Rorschach instructed Pasia, who was waiting at the door.
"Yes, Lord Rorschach."
Upon receiving the order, Pasia quickly ran out.
"Be careful, don’t fall again." Seeing Pasia’s hurried figure, Rorschach added another reminder.
"Yes~~~~" Pasia’s response came from afar.
