87: Chapter 87 Child of the Elements?"Who are we?Ha, you finally remembered to ask, huh?What, finally willing to listen to me?You won't even tell me who ordered me to destroy your house," Luffy said angrily.The two old men attacking Luffy scratched their heads and laughed awkwardly.Liss smiled brightly, instantly captivating Sanji's heart.He quickly ran to Liss, knelt on one knee like a gentleman, and earnestly introduced himself: "Hello, beautiful Princess Liss, my name is Sanji, the Straw Hat Pirates' cook.It's a pleasure to meet you."
Luffy rolled his eyes."That's Sanji for you," he thought, "can't resist showing his true colors when he sees a beautiful woman." Nami, unable to bear it any longer, dragged Sanji back behind Luffy.Luffy walked up to Liss.He'd been so focused on the battle that he only now saw Liss's true face clearly.Liss had long, fiery red waves in her hair and a pretty face—in short, quite beautiful.But Luffy remained unmoved, calmly saying, "I am Monkey D.Luffy, captain of the Straw Hat Pirates.And let me say it again, I accidentally damaged your house; no one instructed me to do it."
Eneva and Ors were speechless.This wasn't going to end there, was it?Liz said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mr.Luffy.We didn't attack you because of this.It's because Grandpa Eneva and Grandpa Ors mistook you for an assassin sent by Prince Odbiao to kill me.I apologize to you."
Princess Liz bowed deeply, her beautiful peaks appearing and disappearing in the distance.Luffy kept his eyes straight ahead, but when he heard the name Odbiao, he asked with some curiosity, "Is your Prince Odbiao very dark-skinned?Does he ride a bicycle carrying a huge stack of bananas?"
Eneva and Ors exchanged bewildered glances, both beginning to doubt whether this young man was truly an assassin sent by Prince Odbiao.How could he be so familiar with Prince Odbiao?Liz exclaimed in horror, "Mr.Luffy, are you really not an assassin sent by Prince Odbiao?Otherwise, how could you be so familiar with him?"
Indeed, Prince Odbiao, as they described, was very dark-skinned and had a strange habit of always riding a bicycle carrying a stack of bananas.Before the rebellion, Lis had asked him why he did this, and Prince Odbiao said it made him feel comfortable.Now it was Luffy's turn to be embarrassed.No wonder he's called Emperor Odbiao; he's terrifying, truly terrifying!"Alright, alright, I was just guessing randomly.So, why would a princess like you choose to live on such a desolate island instead of staying in the royal palace?Could it be that this Prince Odbiao." "Wait, didn't the prince rebel?" Luffy changed the subject and asked.Liz looked at Luffy leisurely, as if to say, "You've already said everything, what else can I say?" Luffy felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze.Just as he was about to tell the others about his tragic experiences, he saw Luffy walk away with a listless expression."What does your misery have to do with me?I'll have my friends fix your house for you.Once it's fixed, we'll be even." After asking Franky to help Liz and the others rebuild their house, Luffy left with Uta and the other two girls, intending to find a.In a secluded place, a romantic date was planned.Alice blinked her bewildered eyes, a clear yet foolish look on her face.Wait, why isn't this person playing by the rules?Why isn't he pressing for more information?Ignoring the two old men's objections, Alice insisted on finding Luffy to tell her story."What's wrong with Princess Alice today?I've never seen her like this before?" Eneva's wrinkled face was full of confusion.Ors patted his shoulder and silently went to chop down trees to prepare materials, leaving the bewildered Eneva behind.Meanwhile, Alice finally.She found Luffy and his companions by the lake, but what shocked her even more was yet to come.Luffy raised one hand, and countless vines burst from the ground, rapidly weaving a small boat.Lis screamed, "How is this possible?How could you possess six elemental powers?Even my father, the king, only possesses two, and I, as the kingdom's princess, can only possess three.How could you possess six elemental powers?Wait, I didn't see you chant any spells.How did you do it?Are you perhaps the elemental child prophesied to save our country from fire and water?"
At this point, Liss's attitude became much more respectful, but her words left Luffy completely bewildered.What "Child of the Elements"?This was merely a system reward of elemental control, more like a superpower.Seeing Luffy's confusion, Liss immediately explained, "Revered Child of the Elements, please allow me to enlighten you.As I mentioned before, I come from the Kingdom of Eles.Well, it's a kingdom where everyone can use magic.At the age of six, everyone can awaken their elemental power through the Elemental Stone.Whatever element is awakened, one can cultivate the corresponding magic.Everyone can awaken one elemental power; awakening two is genius; awakening three is one in a million; and only our country's first king possessed four.And four or more—only the legendary Child of the Elements can awaken them, and in prophecy, the Child of the Elements is the representative of God."
Luffy roughly understood what this "Child of Elements" meant by that, but he still asked curiously, "So, according to you, don't you suspect that I ate some kind of Devil Fruit that allows me to manipulate multiple elements?"
"As for that, Lord Luffy, please trust my judgment.You definitely didn't eat any Devil Fruit, because the elemental power you use is the purest elemental power.The elemental power used by those who ate so-called Logia-type Devil Fruits is corrupted; how can it compare to your elemental power?" Liss answered Luffy with utmost respect.Fei was quite uncomfortable with her attitude and said somewhat awkwardly, "Alright, just call me Luffy.I'm really not used to people being so respectful to me.Also, tell me your story."
Liz nodded, her expression sorrowful as she recounted her story: "Half a year ago, my father, King Al, accidentally obtained a bead filled with dark energy.Ancient texts told me that absorbing this bead would permanently grant him dark elemental power.Because of its ominous aura, my father didn't absorb it rashly.Prince Odbiao, somehow learning of this, and having long coveted the throne, ambushed my father, severely injuring him.My father, in desperation, entrusted me to Eneva and Grandpa Ors.After that, the three of us fled from pursuers until today, when we met you all." Luffy nodded, already somewhat understanding the reasons.These things would happen no matter where they were.Just then, the system suddenly issued a mission to Luffy: "Mission issued: Go to the Kingdom of Eles, defeat Odbiao, and obtain the Dark Bead (after absorption, the host will gain dark elemental power).Mission rewards: Increase the Gum-Gum Fruit awakening progress by 10% (upon reaching 100%, the fruit will fully awaken and become Nika), and a gender change card."
