286. Scarecrow Card
He never understood the purpose of Hawkins' travels all the time. Even in the original book, the identity and true purpose of this guy have always been unknown. It can be said that since his appearance, he has always been very mysterious. The fruit ability and the behavior of joining the Kaido Pirates in the later stage make people feel that this guy's purpose is extraordinary.
Seeing that Hawkins still didn't answer, Reinhardt gave him a look, and then continued: "Instead of continuing to walk aimlessly, why don't you stay in Beihai with me, slowly accumulate strength, wait for the right time, do The pusher of the times..."
"The pusher of the times..." Hawkins was a little surprised. He cast his eyes on the opposite Reinhardt again, and found that this old friend always had a faint oppressive aura, which he was not unfamiliar with. Because I once felt it in a strong person, it is a kind of domineering revealed in the bones.
"Are you interested?"
"Is this your ambition?" Hawkins' eyes jumped, "Accumulate strength and wait for the coming era?"
Reinhardt smiled and shook his head: "This will be my ultimate goal, it should be called a plan."
Hawkins felt his heartbeat speed up a bit. This guy's ambition is really not small, but he just doesn't know what the specific purpose is. Is he fighting for hegemony in the new world?
Thinking of this, Hawkins took out a stack of cards from his arms and stared at Reinhardt with all his attention.
"This is you?" Reinhardt was a little surprised when he saw the stack of scarecrow cards in his hand. Did he finally see Hawkins draw?
This guy always wears a "god stick" expression every day, perhaps just to prevent others from seeing through his thoughts.
Hawkins didn't answer, but said to himself: "Then let me see what kind of future you have in your plan."
A stack of cards floated in the air, and then began to rotate from slow to fast. Hawkins looked at the rotating cards calmly, but he was thinking about how his old friend Reinhardt had grown into now. He is a man, whether his ability and wisdom can support his seemingly enormous ambition.
Looking at the spinning cards and the shapes revealed by the cards, Reinhardt said with a smile, "A very interesting ability, very similar to your personality."
Reinhardt naturally knows what these things are, and can avoid good and bad divination methods. It has a great relationship with astrology. In the past life, this was called the Tarot card, known as the "nature's secret library". It became popular, but he had only heard of tarot cards, and he didn't understand them at all, and naturally he didn't understand how he used card draws to predict, but the cards in Hawkins' hand were just renamed, called Scarecrow cards.
It can turn into a giant scarecrow to attack the enemy, can use scarecrow cards to predict good and bad luck and judge the situation, and can transfer damage to gain multiple lives. It is really a powerful devil fruit.
"This is a straw fruit, it can transfer damage, turn into a scarecrow to attack the enemy, and can draw scarecrow cards anytime, anywhere." Hawkins showed a rare smile, "Drawing different cards has different meanings, and drawing cards in battle is the same. To be able to acquire different abilities.”
"Interesting, haha." Reinhardt laughed.
"I searched for a long time, and finally found it in an underground auction house in Xihai. You know, I have always liked divination." Hawkins continued.
"So you went to the West Sea for this Devil Fruit?" Reinhardt didn't expect this guy to go to the West Sea for this purpose.
"The straw fruit is worth my trip in person." Hawkins nodded, but he didn't hide it at all.
"The devil fruit that suits you is the best." Reinhardt replied, "This devil fruit is a bit more complicated, but with your mind that likes to delve into weird things, it should be the most suitable."
Hawkins nodded, but at this time he suddenly remembered the weird blue light he had seen in Clock Harbor before,
So he asked: "The blue light that shot from those towers before, is your Devil Fruit ability?"
"Clock." Reinhardt stretched out the back of his left hand, and Hawkins saw a simple clock pattern.
"Clock fruit... No wonder those are clock towers. It turns out that the ability of clock fruit can still be developed in this way." Hawkins shook his head, and he couldn't believe it. He was very surprised. He could feel that clock fruit was just an ordinary superman. It is a devil fruit, and it may not be possible for anyone to develop this ability, but in the hands of Reinhardt, it can show such a powerful ability.
Originally, Hawkins thought that if he ate straw fruit this time, if he fought Reinhardt, he would definitely be able to defeat him, but after only one move before, he found that Reinhardt's strength was bottomless. I can't keep up with it for the rest of my life.
"Those clock towers are just an external extension created by me using the fruit ability. It doesn't have much impact, and the clock tower cannot attack autonomously, so I have to control it myself. The ability to operate can’t affect it.”
Reinhardt had been thinking about this for a long time, and if these clocks couldn't run the attack when he left Katan, there would be no use for anything other than viewing it as a landscape.
However, it is still not possible to control it at a place too far from the clock tower. This is what he expected when he built the clock tower. The clock tower successfully resonated with the clock fruit, which at least made him more and more certain. If the ability of the clock fruit is developed to the limit, then the coverage of the clock tower may reach the entire Katan Island, and even if he leaves the North Sea, the clock tower can still autonomously emit daylight attacks when it encounters enemy attacks.
He wants to make the entire Katan Island a fort that can defend itself against the enemy. In the future, even if the World Government wants to send troops to the North Sea to fight, it must consider whether it can bear the cost of such a large soldier's death.
At this time, Reinhardt changed the conversation: "Are you really not thinking about it?"
He was still a little reluctant and wanted to invite Hawkins to join in.
"You don't have a clear goal now, why don't you just do it with me."
"Don't persuade me." Hawkins shook his head. "We are friends. I don't want to lie to you, because I plan to travel to the sea for a few years and go to the great route."
Reinhardt has invited later generations more than once, the eleven superstar members of the Evil Generation, the earliest X Drake, Trafalgar Law on Svalor Island, and Basil in front of him. Hawkins, but none of the answers he got were rejections.
On the one hand, because his current strength is still too weak, he is not very attractive to these guys with higher hearts than the sky, and on the other hand, because these people are the leaders of the times, even if they want to join others, they will also join the powerful ones. Team, join Reinhardt from scratch? This is obviously not very likely.
