One Piece Tulip Family

On the throne of the abandoned clan, only the king hugged each other to keep warm.

Dusk falls, the new moon rises, and the sea is vast.

There were no waves on the sea, and everything seemed extraordinarily quiet under the cover of night, only the crashing sound of waves hitting the hull from time to time.

A dilapidated pirate ship drifted with the current, and it didn't look like there was anyone at all, only a faint light was on in one of the cabins.

"What the hell, why is it so cold all of a sudden?"

Satan curled up beside the fire and shivered, shivering from time to time.

"Drink some hot water, master."

Chitong pushed the door in with a cup of hot water and walked in. Seeing Satan shivering coldly, he couldn't help but feel distressed.

"Master, your physique should become stronger after the awakening of your blood, why is it getting weaker and weaker now?"

She sat down close to Satan and hugged him from behind, hoping to bring him more warmth with her body temperature.

"It's not that your physique has weakened."

Feeling Chitong's warm body, Satan subconsciously rubbed against her arms.

"I can feel that every time the blood is burned, the muscles become stronger after being torn, and the body should be strengthened."

Satan paused, and then said: "But, damn it, there is a tree of life in my body. A lot of blood is used to nourish it and grow. I can feel that it is undergoing transformation. As long as I step over it, I can double my strength."

There is an inexplicable expectation in his eyes, the more he experiences, the more he realizes his insignificance, the more he yearns for power!
"I need time to grow up!"

"Master, don't be so tense, your body will not be able to bear it."

Chitong looked at Satan quietly, her red eyes were full of distress, she stretched out her hand to gently stroke his forehead, trying to dispel the deep-seated melancholy in his heart.

"Master, master... Ugh!"

Suddenly, hurried footsteps sounded, Sai Nan hurriedly pushed the door and walked in, calling Satan while walking, but as soon as he entered the door, he saw Chitong embracing Master Satan.

He subconsciously took two steps back, the sound of his footsteps became quieter, and he lowered his head in shame to meet the murderous eyes of Chitong.

"Did I come in at the wrong time?"

Sai Nan hesitated in a dilemma, complaining secretly in his heart, what time is it, you are still in the mood to hug.

"What do you think?"

Satan patted Chitong on the shoulder and stood up, walked up to Sai Nan and pinched his face with a little baby fat, showing a half-smile expression on his face.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Sai Nan shuddered inexplicably, thinking that I wouldn't really disturb the young master's good business, right?No matter how you look at it, you have a bad complexion.

"There is a ship ahead, and our ship is on their course, because our ship's mast has been completely broken, so there is no way to avoid it."

"What flag is it?" Satan's expression also became vigilant. There are too many people coveting the blood of the Douglas family, and most of the ships that can be encountered now are enemies rather than friends.

"The flag of the world government is flying." Sai Nan replied, then hesitated for a moment, and continued: "The strange thing is that the blood-red thorn bird pattern is painted on the sail."

"Too bad, it's the notorious Thorn Bird Slave Hunters." Satan's face became serious.

"The Thorn Bird Slave Hunters? How could it be possible to fly the flag of the World Government?"

Akahito stood up holding the tachi sword, "Flying the flag of the world government rashly will be hunted down by the navy."

"No, it is legal for them to fly the flag of the world government. Because they have been arresting and cherishing human races all over the world for a long time, they have provided countless precious slaves to the noble Tianlong people of the world. Therefore, they are protected by the Tianlong people and can fly the flag of the world government. Even the navy cannot interfere with their illegal slavery. These are a group of real sea scum."

Satan explained.

"So the battle is inevitable?"

Although Chitong had doubts in his mouth, there was already a faint black energy rising from his body, and he was obviously ready to fight.

Since she introduced Teigu's [One Hit Kill Murasame] poison into her body and was awakened, she has completely developed immunity to Murasame's poison, and now she can use Murasame as she likes.

"No, master, I think this is an opportunity."

After listening to Satan's explanation, Sai Nan hesitated for a moment and raised a different opinion.

"what chance?"

Sai Nan didn't answer in a hurry, but analyzed the current situation to Satan.

"It has been a week since we fled the battlefield in Amsterdam. We encountered enemies with malicious intentions along the way and experienced several battles."

"and then?"

Satan stared with interest at the usually quiet little fat man, his eyes full of expectations.

"Now there are more and more malicious forces in the Rennes sea area. If we stay on this pirate ship, we will be dragged down by successive battles sooner or later. The young master will not have time to recover from his injuries. This is not good for us."

"So you mean, it's better for us not to resist, but to pretend to be caught by the slave capture group and get on board their boat?" Satan understood Sai Nan's meaning after a little thought.

"Yes, there are many advantages to this."

"How is this possible? I absolutely don't agree with the young master being caught by the slave arresting group."

Chitong retorted resolutely, and looked at Sai Nan with unkind eyes.

"Don't worry, listen to Sai Nan."

"Yes, sir."

Sai Nan smiled apologetically at Chitong, and continued: "According to what the young master just said, the Thorn Bird Slave Hunters have a strong background. As long as we get on the Thorn Bird slave hunters' boat, we will not be harassed by other forces and can avoid many unnecessary battles."

"And the most important thing is that we have no food on board, but the slave hunters must have enough supplies. As long as we pretend to be the slaves of the Thorn Bird, we can gain temporary safety and food, and the young master will also have time to recover. After all, the slave hunters will never treat their slaves harshly before the slave auction, right?"

"That's not okay, the young master must not become a slave."

Chitong retorted stubbornly, turning her head away unwilling to see Satan's expression.

"I think what Sai Nan said is quite reasonable."

Satan made a decision: "As for becoming a slave, it's just a stopgap measure anyway. When we use the thorn bird to avoid other forces with malicious intentions and leave the Rennes sea area, the blood in my body should almost be calm."

"At that time, the sea will be vast and let us sail."

"I……"

Chi Tong still wanted to say something, but when she saw the haggard forced smile on Satan's face, she couldn't help feeling distressed.

"The young master must not be willing to suffer this humiliation, but now the most important thing is to survive. After all, he still has the important task of revitalizing the Tulip family on his shoulders."

Chi Tong, who wanted to understand everything, raised his head and gave Satan a warm smile, "I have no objection, everything is up to the young master."

"Then it's decided."

Satan took a deep breath and said, "My family, next we will become slaves of the Thorn Bird Slave Hunters."
