Vice Captain of One Piece

Chapter 66 The Legend of the Colorful Mist ([-])
When the soldiers came up, a big hole appeared in the sky in the colorful mist, and it slowly spread around.

"Okay, everyone please look this way~~" Anke slowly took off the bandage covering her left eye, the black number "one" in the bloody left eye explained what she wanted to do, but unfortunately no one knew .

"Those eyes!!" Seeing Encore's different pupils, apart from Luffy and Robin who had known for a long time, other people whose past memories were slowly awakening showed a trace of fear on their faces.Then Sauron, Nami, and Usopp slowly eased their expressions, and Nami still said a little confused: "Encore...are you...Encore??"

Seeing their expressions, Anke just pursed his lips tightly, his different pupils slipped a trace of helplessness, and said softly, hypnotizing them and changing their memories at the same time, "The moment the space collapses, when you are thrown out Passed out. Other than that, you didn't see anything, now close your eyes and go to sleep!"

Watching them fall there one by one, Encore looked up at the ever-expanding void, walked over to wake up Luffy and Robin, and undid their hypnosis.

"Huh?? Why did they all fall asleep??" Luffy looked around strangely. When he caught Encore's sight, he immediately reached out and pressed her bloody left eye, and said in a low voice, "Encore, is there any help?" Has anyone seen it?"

Thinking of Sauron's reaction just now, Anke just reached out and hugged Luffy tightly without saying a word.Looking at the little head buried in his arms a little strangely, Luffy looked at Robin suspiciously.Robin just shook her head, indicating that she didn't know what happened either.

Robin looked at the people lying there in a mess, and thought that Encore's way to let them out was to use the ability of the eyes, then slowly crossed his hands, and opened his lips lightly: "50 rounds of flowers bloom!" , Hold everyone's eyes.Even if they are asleep now, they can ensure that no one who wakes up suddenly sees what happened.Glancing at Encore in Luffy's arms, Robin consciously turned his back to them.

Not long after, Anke raised his head, stretched away from Luffy, and said, "Nothing happened~~They are just like Rabbani, they just fell asleep~~Now we are leaving~~"

Luffy put the straw hat tightly on Encore's head, and smiled brightly, "Yeah! Get ready for a new adventure!!"

Robin still turned his back to them and said softly, "Want to help? Deputy Captain Sang?"

"Hehe, thank you, Robin. Just help watch them, although they won't be able to wake up for a while." Encore looked at Manchu's hands, chuckled and jumped onto the sheep's head and said, " Captain, let me borrow your captain's state seat!"

Luffy nodded with a smile, "Yes! I agree!"

In the raised right hand, the black trident condensed, and the number silently changed to "six" (the way of heaven), and the blood-colored left pupil narrowed slightly.Immediately holding the trident in his left hand, Encore used his hands to do everything in front of him. In an instant, a huge gap appeared in the colorful mist through which the Rongmeli could pass. The faint afterglow of the setting sun proves that it is a passage leading to the outside world.

The two sides of the gap kept opening and closing, Anke held the trident horizontally, sweat kept dripping from his forehead, and the gap slowly stabilized.After making the way out, Encore held the trident tightly and used it to support the space tunnel, and then the number in his pupils instantly switched to "three" (beast way), and suddenly a large number of sea creatures appeared at the bottom of the ship and began to forcefully push the Merry. Push that pathway.

Feeling the speed of the ship, Robin still didn't look back, but looked curiously at the hull that was constantly being knocked away, and the limbs of various sea creatures occasionally waving into the air, "octopus feet, sea snake tails, and unknown The body parts of creatures, how many kinds of creatures are there under the Mellie...' Immediately, she was attracted by the twinkling stars, and had no time to count the number of those sea creatures.

Seeing Anke's unstable body being blown head-on by the strong wind, Luffy also jumped up to the sheep's head, squatted halfway behind Anke, pressed the straw hat on her head tightly with one hand, and watched with a big smile. The approaching exit said: "Encore!! We are going out!! Hahaha!!!"

Feeling Luffy's support behind him, Anke just relaxed and leaned back into his warm embrace, narrowed his bloody left eye, and smiled silently.

..................................................................

The moment she rushed out of the colorful mist, Encore retracted her trident, narrowed her left eye, and Luffy immediately carried her back into the boat.The creatures under the Melly continued to swim, and Encore released the order to them only after they were far enough away from the colorful mist that was about to dissipate.

Immediately after feeling the boat slow down, Robin threw a roll of bandages over.Encore took it, and after looking at the bandage in his hand, he began to wrap his left eye, which had turned back to purple. After all, the play was about to end, and a serious 'wound' would be made later to make the cute reindeer The ship doctor will take a look at it before it can end perfectly~
"Why do you still cover your eyes? Encore~" Luffy, who was squatting on the side watching Encore's movements curiously, asked, "Didn't your eyes turn back to purple now?"

"Zoro and the others saw that I was injured just now, so they have to keep pestering me," said the bandaged Encore, putting the straw hat on Loopy's head, "If they see that my eyes are fine, they will be suspicious ..."

"Is that so?" Luffy still didn't quite know what Encore meant.Robin, on the other hand, looked at the gradually dissipating colorful mist, smiled softly, and did not interrupt their conversation.And the people lying there in a mess on the boat are even less likely to intervene.

...............................................................

The setting sun hangs in the sky, and it cannot fall from the sea level.The orange radiance spread throughout the world, and the warm light shone on everyone's faces.The surface of the sea, which was unintentionally dyed orange, was sparkling.The Merry stopped near the coast, the crowd that had gathered there had dispersed, and the people on board who had been hypnotized by Encore had also woken up.

"Fortunately, when the Merry was thrown out just now, all the treasures were gone. Even though so much is missing, I still feel very sad~~" Nami patted the three remaining treasure chests on the deck and smiled.Then when he saw the Weedon soldiers on the boat, he immediately put his left hand on his hips, pointed at the sea with his right hand and said viciously: "If you wake up, get out of here!! If you dare to take any treasure, I will kill you!!"

"Yes!!!"

"Nami-san!!!!" Hearing Sanji Ai's call from a distance, everyone who slowly climbed off the boat was a little surprised that he and Chopper seemed to have been burned.

"Wow!!! Cutie/Encore, what happened to your eyes??" Seeing Encore's new look, Sanji and Chopper's eyes protruded in fright.

"I got it in the colorful mist, Chopper, check it for Encore," Nami said worriedly, "You must not leave any scars, otherwise..."

"Boom!" There was a sound of firing a cannon in the distance, followed by a loud warning from the Navy: "It's over! You gang of pirates!!".

When he saw the warship appearing in the port, Usopp yelled: "Ah!! It's the guys chasing us!"

Anke sneaked out his right eye from behind Luffy and looked at the five middle-aged and elderly sailors walking towards them, and suddenly found that they looked a bit like Rabbani and the others.Anke frowned slightly, thinking to himself: "If it's really them, it's a little troublesome." In the past 50 years, they must still remember their lives in the colorful fog, and they must also remember us, otherwise they would not have appeared here by such a coincidence.In this case, maybe they will still remember what happened 5 years ago, and 50 years have passed, and Rabbani’s hypnosis should have been unraveled. He has seen my eyes, and he will definitely remember that scene, and he will definitely Guess that the girl covering her left eye on Luffy's pirate ship is the one who died 5 years ago.What's more, Sergeant Minqi said that the rumors in the Navy headquarters...'

"Wow! Help us!!" Seeing the navy as if seeing a savior, Philips rushed up and knelt down in front of him and said pitifully: "They want to seize the property of the citizens!! They are big villains ah!!"

The leading navy just looked at the big ring on Philip's hand and said, "This is a secret treasure that was snatched by pirates 100 years ago and has been missing since then: the ring of Queen Ilucia, how do you have this? It can't be stolen. Bar?"

"How come??" Philip stood up in a panic and explained: "This is the treasure sleeping in Epps-Consard! We just moved it back!"

"Major!" A female sailor reported from behind: "A mountain of treasures have been found over there!"

"Okay! Confiscate them all!"

"Wait a minute!!" Mayor Witton hurried towards them with an ax in his hand, "No one can touch those treasures! They are all mine!"

"No one's treasure is the property of the world government! If there is any violation, it will be regarded as the behavior of pirates!"

"Okay! Anyway, I'm a pirate!! I can grab what I want!!" Mayor Witton rushed towards the navy, brandishing an axe.But he was easily knocked down by the navy, "What you just said is a confession, Pirate Witten!" Finally, he said to the sailors behind him: "Bring Witten and his gang back!"

"Yes!"

"Could it be, are you..." Dr. Han Suo couldn't believe his eyes, and said with trembling lips, "Rabani??"

"Ah, didn't I say that? We will definitely live!"

"It's a lie, right?" Usopp looked him up and down and said, "But it really looks like..."

"After being sucked into that vortex, we were transported to the world 50 years ago," Rabbani explained with a laugh.

"Then why didn't you come earlier..." Dr. Han Suo gritted his teeth slightly and said.

"In order to defeat Whedon who is hiding under the umbrella of power, we have to rely on other powers, that is, the power of the navy. It just took a little longer to climb up to this position. Although we are wearing navy uniforms, we are actually pumpkin pirates Tuan. Han Suo. We are your partners and will always be your partners!"

"Rabbani..." Dr. Han Suo was moved to tears.

"Also... I almost forgot, Luffy Pirates!" Rabbani's tone turned serious and looked at Luffy and the others seriously, "I want to arrest you!!"

The original moving atmosphere dissipated immediately, and Usopp, who was also moved, hid behind Sauron's fangs and roared: "You ungrateful guy! Have you forgotten that I used to cook for you??" Innocent was treated as Zoro in the shield stared blankly, comparing Encore behind Luffy with the guy behind him, the corner of his mouth twitched.

"We hold the banner of naval justice! How could we let go of the pirate who was offered a bounty?" Rabbani paused, and looked thoughtfully at the people behind Luffy.An Ke blinked his right eye, and retracted the protruding half of his face.

"But..." Rabbani frowned and suddenly changed his tone, covering his head as if in distress and muttering to himself loudly: "Why is it such an unfortunate coincidence? We must take Whedon and his group back to the Navy Headquarters now." That's fine! Wouldn't that make the Luffy Pirates take advantage of the gap to escape? But we really can't spare any manpower, so we immediately asked for reinforcements from the Navy Headquarters, although the reinforcements will arrive tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, in case they escape There is no way! Ah!! This is really nerve-wracking! There is no way!!!" Then he covered his head and ran back to the warship, screaming in distress.

"..." The Luffy Pirates and Dr. Han Suo, who had been stunned, stared at Rabbani's self-written, directed and acted play, and then stared at his back and gave their own conclusions: " This is fine..."

............................................................

In the evening, in the galley of the Merry, which was still docked at the port, Chopper was undoing the bandages on Encore who was sitting on the cot. Yes, it looks very serious.And Luffy, who knew that Encore's eyes were not injured, had been trying to do everything possible to sabotage, but after being punched by Nami, he calmed down.Robin, who was also aware of the facts, also watched curiously, wanting to know how Encore made such a wound.

As soon as the bandage was untied, everyone gasped: there was a bone-deep wound from the end of the eyebrow to the corner of the eye, and dried blood was dotted on both sides of the wound.Anke still had a smile on his lips, his face was peaceful, and the wound between his brows was like a crack on a broken mask.

"Encore!! Why did you get hurt!!!" Luffy, who knew the truth, was the first to jump up excitedly.But in an instant, Nami punched him to the ground.Namihu roared angrily, "It's not your fault!! How can such a cute face of Anke be hurt! And it's still such a serious injury!"

"It's much lighter than the usual sword wound..." Before Zoro finished speaking, he was knocked down by Nami with a punch: "Shut up!! An is a little girl, how can she have a wound on her face?!"

Usopp, who also fell to the ground with a big bag on his head, silently raised his hand and asked, "Why do I..."

"You were also on the boat at that time, right? Joint responsibility!"

And Robin just frowned slightly and propped his chin, wondering: "Why did there suddenly appear a wound?"I remember that she shouldn’t have been injured when she first came out to bandage, and Captain Sang was by her side at that time, so it’s impossible for her to injure herself in front of Captain Sang...’

Sanji bit his cigarette and asked Chopper who was looking for medicine: "Chopper, will there be scars on the cutie's face?"

"No, although the time has passed a bit and the wound is a bit deep. But after the wound is healed, I will apply some medicine to remove the scar, and there will be no scar on her face." Chopper put it on and pretended After the bottles and cans of the medicine were filled, I took out a cotton swab and dipped it in disinfectant water: "Now sterilize the poison first, and then apply the medicine..."

Encore was thinking about the expression that Sauron and the others saw in his eyes in the colorful mist, when he suddenly saw a white cotton swab stretching towards his left eye, and there was a strong smell of disinfectant in the air.Anke's pupils shrank slightly, stretched out his hand and slammed it down on the ground, and slowly moved back.

"What's wrong with Anke...?" Qiaoba, who thought that Anke was afraid of pain, blinked and looked at the cotton swabs on the ground, and then smiled comfortingly: "It's okay, it doesn't hurt~ You can apply medicine after disinfection, the wound It will get better sooner." As he said that, he picked up a cotton swab again, but this time it was thrown away before it was stained with disinfectant, and even the medicine bottle placed there was inexplicably broken.

Chopper stared blankly at the prismatic crystal next to the broken bottle, then at Encore who was still silent, at a loss.Others also looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't know what happened.

"I want to be alone for a while..." Anke stood up and walked out with her head down, her long bangs covering her eyes and the serious 'wound'.Seeing the long black hair fluttering away behind the door, there was silence in the kitchen.

"Enke, will you not let me check because you don't believe in my medical skills??" Chopper looked at his hooves at a loss, with tears in his eyes, "It was the same last time in Alabasta, and he refused to do anything. let me get closer to..."

"It's not about your medical skills, Chopper. The cutie should be like this because of other things." Sanji shook the cigarette biting his mouth up and down, and said with a slight frown, "What happened in the colorful fog? ? With a cute personality, it is impossible to do this..."

"Really... Although she didn't say anything just now, but..." Nami stretched out her arms to hug herself, her face was slightly sad: "It always makes people feel that she is very sad..."

"But nothing particularly interesting happened in the Seven Colors Mist," Sauron folded his hands and tried hard to recall, "She has always been calm and stable inside, just like before..."

"Then...could it be something happened when we came out?" Usopp's eyes suddenly lit up, and he analyzed logically: "Think about it, when we were just thrown into that walk-in, didn't we almost all Did she faint? Could it be that Anke was still awake at that time, and then she saw something that made her feel like this?? She is still a child after all, maybe she saw something that scared her... ..."

"It is indeed very possible. We all woke up at almost the same time. At that time, she seemed to look at us with complicated eyes." Sauron calmly glanced at the two demon knives, and said, "It is also very possible. When she went out to find Luffy, something bad happened..."

"I'll go out for a while." Luffy, who had been silent all the time, fastened his straw hat to cover his eyes, and walked out of the kitchen under everyone's surprised eyes.

"Then, I'll go out too!!" Chopper hugged the medicine box tightly and ran over, but the kitchen door was closed with a "bang".

Chopper stared blankly at the hand growing out from behind the door, and then looked back at Robin who was leaning against the wall smiling, not knowing why she wouldn't let him go out.

"Let them stay for a while, ship doctor-san. A lot of things happened today..." Robin's summoned hand still pressed the door tightly, and the meaning was very clear.

Zoro was silent for a while, stretched his waist, sat down and said: "Indeed, Luffy should know what happened, and the encore matter should be left to him. Although he is an unreliable captain, But sometimes that guy knows better than anyone. When they come back, Encore will be fine. Maybe he will throw us overboard because of something capricious..."

"Haha, it's very possible." Usopp smiled, then looked at Sauron with malicious intentions and said, "But it seems that you, Sauron, were thrown into the sea the most times on the boat?"

Zoro closed his eyes and went to sleep, ignoring Usopp's words directly, because it was indeed true.

Sanji rolled up his sleeves and walked to the stove, "Then I'll prepare some desserts, if you are cute, you should like cute cakes, just like rabbits~~"

"But her wound hasn't been treated yet..." Chopper hugged the medicine box tightly in his arms, and looked worriedly at the closed door.

"Wait until Encore's mood calms down before dealing with the wound, Chopper." Nami bent down and said to it: "Besides, I also need your help with something. Isn't Encore's taste buds not very good?" ? Although she won't let you check your body carefully, why don't you think about it now?"

"Hmm! Leave it to me!" Chopper stretched out his hoof and patted his chest, vowing, but then became discouraged, "But there are many reasons for bad taste, and it's hard to find out the cause without careful blood tests..."

Robin, who was holding hands, just smiled and looked at them quietly, and looked in the direction of the door, "Is this the partner...?"However, your true identity is...'

..................................................................

At the railing near the sheep's head, Anke was lying on the railing, with his chin lightly resting on his intertwined arms, and the slightly absent-minded Violet stared blankly at the phosphorescent sea surface under the brilliant starlight.

After walking out, Lu Fei jumped on the sheep's head and lay down on his back, with his hands behind his head looking at the sky full of stars.It didn't take long before he stretched his neck and leaned over his head to look at Anke's expressionless face. Then he stretched out a paw and pulled away Anke's long bangs, and only closed it when he saw the undamaged delicate face go back.

Anke still kept that movement motionless and looked at the sea.After a while, he tilted his head and looked at Luffy who was lying on his back on the sheep's head, sighed softly and said, "Hey... Luffy, I like this ship very much, and I also like the partners on the ship..."

Luffy just showed a smile that he knew this before, and didn't say anything.

"Hey... Luffy, if..."

"No way," Luffy interrupted An Ke's unfinished sentence, and said with a bright smile, "Because we are partners!"

"That's right...partner..." There are too many complex and contradictory emotions hidden in the smooth words, but it's a pity that the innocent boy can't hear it.An Ke still looked at Lu Fei, then fluttered his long eyelashes a few times, and slowly lowered his eyelids to cover up the helplessness deep in his pupils

'When will I be able to face my partner unabashedly?When... can I go on an adventure with them in my true self? '
