Vice Captain of One Piece

Chapter 751 Rebecca's decision
Bullfighting arena.

There is a small stall selling bento, and the stall owner is an old woman with gray hair.Because Encore is now an illusion, even if you have money on you, you can't use it.Although Mr. Rabbit originally brought a lot of money, it was already a stack of blank paper when he took it out.So, Luffy, who didn't want to deceive the old man with illusions, ate all the food to try, and looked at the old woman in front of him with a bamboo stick, "Grandma, don't you have anything to try?"

·
The old lady immediately said angrily, "I say you! Do you want to try to eat to be full?!"

·
At this time, Rebecca had just passed by, and when she saw this, she hurried over, "Wait a minute! Mother-in-law!"

·
Seeing her coming, the mother-in-law asked in surprise, "Is he your friend? Rebecca?"

·
"People who compete together." Rebecca smiled embarrassedly, then took out a purse and looked at Luffy who was biting a bamboo stick, "What do you want to eat, Lucy?"

·
"Oh?? Do you want to treat me to eat?? That's great~~", Luffy immediately became happy, and then happily took a few lunch boxes.

·
Rebecca looked at him with a smile, and then looked at the girl standing there quietly, "An Qi, do you want it?"

·
"No need~thank you~", Anke just shook his head with a smile, and then reached out to touch Mr. Rabbit's long ears.

·
"Okay then." Rebecca poured all the few coins in the purse into the old woman's outstretched hand. Although it was still not enough, the old woman didn't care.

·
After taking back the empty purse, Rebecca smiled and said to them, "I saw someone chasing you just now, do you want me to take you to a place where they can't find you?"

·
"Oh~Okay~It's a great help~~~", Luffy smiled, holding a bento in one hand and Encore in the other, and followed her towards a place he hadn't been to before.

In a dark place like a prison cell, there are a lot of garbage piled up in the corridor, and a lot of weapons are leaning against the wall.Moreover, there is also a cell-like room marked with a number, and the dim light makes it impossible to see clearly what is inside.

·
After Rebecca brought them here, she sat with them on a bench near the cell.

·
Luffy sat between Rebecca and Encore, and after taking a big bite of the meal, he smiled happily and said, "Thank you for inviting me to dinner, Rebecca. By the way, where is this place?"

·
"This is the dormitory for the sword fighters in our arena, and some people call it a prison house." Rebecca took off her helmet and said with a smile, "General players don't come here, you stay here before going out on the field. Here."

·
"Really, it was a great help~" Luffy smiled and inserted a squid ring, and then handed it to the person sitting quietly beside him with a smile, "Encore, come, ah~~~~~~~"

·
"I'm not a real person now, Luffy~", Anke just shook his head with a smile, and then hugged Mr. Rabbit who was quiet at home.

·
"It's a pity..." Luffy retracted the fork discouragedly and sent the squid rings to his mouth. His depressed mood was instantly comforted by delicious food.

·
"The match just now was really exciting. I didn't expect Lucy to be so good. I was really shocked." Rebecca looked at them with a smile, and asked with a smile as she watched Luffy feasting, "Very good Do you want to eat?"

·
"Hmm! The bento in the arena is super delicious." Luffy nodded, then looked at her while eating, "Aren't you hungry?"

·
Hearing this, a trace of grief quickly flashed across Rebecca's face.In my memory, in that beautiful flower field, when I was a child, I told my mother that I was hungry, but the body of my mother who went out to buy food did wait...

·
Lowering her head slightly, Rebecca still raised the corners of her mouth, and said in a low voice, "I... am not hungry..."

·
An Ke just glanced at her with his right eye, and then reached out to touch the quiet and motionless Mr. Rabbit, grabbing its long ears and shaking it from time to time.

·
Hearing Rebecca's words, Luffy said after finishing his last bite of food, "You are really like a samurai..."

·
Suddenly, a few bandaged hands stretched out from the cell and grabbed Luffy firmly, at the same time a man's voice sounded anxiously, "Hurry up! Rebecca! You're planning to do this before you brought him to the Here?!!"

·
Luffy, who was caught, was still holding the finished bento box in his hand, and asked in a daze, "What's going on! Rebecca?!"

·
Rebecca gritted her teeth, reached out and picked up the long sword lying on the side, and pointed at Luffy who was caught.Anke stood up with a slight frown, holding Mr. Rabbit in his left hand and the bundled umbrella in the other, and quickly stepped forward to block Luffy.

·
Seeing that Rebecca was hesitating and someone was blocking her, the man in the cage shouted, "What are you doing! Rebecca! Hurry up and kill that woman and this guy! Otherwise, what will your purpose be?!!"

·
Rebecca, who was holding a sword in both hands, gritted her teeth and looked at them, and after yelling, she raised her sword and stabbed towards them.The black umbrella quickly parried the sharp long sword, and the slender figure in front of him pierced Rebecca's right wrist with the umbrella tip. When the long sword fell, it flew straight away, and he jumped up and raised his right leg at the same time. He kicked Rebecca hard in the stomach.

·
"Ah!!", Rebecca screamed and fell heavily to the ground, and the long sword that was knocked flying also fell to the ground.

·
"Rebecca!!", the person who caught Luffy looked at the knocked down Rebecca in shock, and before he recovered, he saw that the girl holding a rabbit and an umbrella had appeared in front of them, her body With a quick spin, the black skirt fluttered and the black high-heeled shoes directly kicked hard at the hands that grabbed Luffy.

·
"!!!!" The sharp pain made those people's faces change drastically, and they quickly withdrew their hands.At the same time, Luffy's face changed drastically. After quickly throwing away the fork of the lunch box in his hand, he stretched out his hand to press down An Ke's floating skirt. Although he knew that she was an illusion now, it didn't mean that It won't go out when you make such a big move.

·
"Encore!!!", the angry captain of the straw hat still stretched out his hands to press the black skirt that was just below the knee, angrily taught, "Don't forget that you are wearing a skirt now! Kicking and other movements are strictly prohibited!! Absolutely forbidden!! This is the captain's order!!"

·
"Sorry, I got used to it when I was practicing..." Anke scratched her head embarrassingly, and quickly added under Captain Straw Hat's increasingly angry eyes, "I wore long trousers when I was practicing, and I promise that I will not wear skirts in the future. Do what you just did."

·
A little satisfied, Luffy just snorted softly, and then looked at Rebecca lying on the ground strangely, "But, isn't Encore an illusion now? Why can you defeat them?"

·
Anke explained with a smile, "This is not a simple illusion, because it is the fusion of part of my soul and the illusion of hell, which is equivalent to being really useful. In this way, my body can use all the magic. The power of the eyes~"

·
"Encore is really powerful, it's like a clone technique~~~~"

·
The people in the cell looked outside in disbelief. They really couldn't believe that Rebecca was defeated by the weak and weak girl in an instant.They knew very well about Rebecca's strength, she was victorious in all battles and never even got injured, but they didn't expect that she lost to others not only in terms of speed and strength, but also lost in an instant, it was simply unbelievable.

·
Rebecca also couldn't believe the duel that ended just now, but she also saw the girl's hidden strength from it.Sitting up clutching her kicked abdomen, Rebecca said palely, "You can do whatever you want, you should hate me."

·
"I won't take action against the person who invited me to dinner." Luffy stretched out his arms and hugged his deputy captain, and said with a smile, "Encore won't, right~~"

·
"Hmm~", Anke nodded obediently, and then continued to hug her little brother Rabbit.

·
Rebecca gritted her teeth and looked at them, and shouted loudly, "I really wanted to kill you just now!"

·
"I'm not dead anyway~" Luffy said indifferently, after looking at her, he said, "And you didn't intend to kill me at all."

·
There are more than a dozen people covered in bandages like mummies in the cell. There is also a screen on the innermost wall, which can broadcast the situation of the bullfighting arena, but because the arena is being repaired now, there is nothing on it. content and sound.The two people who grabbed Luffy just now looked at the situation outside, and one of them said in a low voice with a little helplessness, "I didn't expect to be killed so easily, the difference in strength is too obvious, Rebecca, even if I kill one here opponents, the hope of winning will be even greater..."

·
Seeing the people inside, Luffy subconsciously said in surprise, "Mummy??"

·
"That's not it!!!" The mummy who was a little more energetic than the others immediately yelled and retorted, and then explained angrily, "We are all prisoner sword fighters, and so is Rebecca. We must continue to fight like acting , until one day we were killed in the arena. It was because we opposed the Doflamingo family. Although the king said that we would be free as long as we won 1000 games, no matter how powerful people are, they have experienced Killing each other 100 times is almost dead. Everyone who tried to escape here was shot, and we had nowhere to escape."

·
A blond-haired uncle also said helplessly, "Ten years ago, a duel before Doflamingo became king was not killing each other. The country he ruled had very extreme light and shadow."

·
"Today's conference, I will do whatever it takes to win and defeat Doflamingo with the ability to burn fruit!" Rebecca said loudly, but her eyes became moist.Then she hugged her legs and whispered, "Today, Mr. Soldier will lead his army to challenge Doflamingo in order to liberate us. He will use his life to destroy this country!"

·
Rebecca remembered the toy soldier who was always with her when she was a child, she couldn't help clenching her teeth, and then continued, "I want to strike before him, I don't want to be protected forever, this time it's my turn to protect Mr. Soldier! "

·
Luffy looked at the tears she couldn't help shed, although he didn't know what was going on, but he felt that there was an indelible pain in her heart.

·
An Ke just looked down at the tearful girl, but there was only an indifferent smile on her face.Without strength, you are not qualified to say anything about protection.In this world of the jungle, it will always be like this.

·
Rebecca covered her face, and said with a crying voice, "Mr. Soldier...will die...

·
"Soldier?" Luffy looked at her suspiciously, and then pulled his deputy captain to let her sit on the bench. After all, standing all the time would make her very tired, although it was just an illusion now.

·
"Mr. a one-legged toy soldier..."

·
"Toy?" Luffy sat cross-legged on the ground, remembering the toy soldier he saw at the entrance of the bullfighting arena when he signed up, "It seems to be a toy that he saw at the entrance of the arena, right?"

·
"It must be him..." Rebecca didn't have any doubts.

·
"We can't go out to the bullfighting arena. Even if we want to go out to do business, we can't do anything,"

·
"Are you worried that the toy will die? I think it's incredible that it's alive."

·
"You who come from other places may not understand." Rebecca calmed down a lot, wiped her tears and whispered, "They are just like human beings, they make friends with those who have no friends, and become brothers with those who have no brothers. Being in a relationship with someone who doesn't have a relationship makes people wonder why they can't live with us. I have been raised by Mr. Soldier since the day I lost my mother, the only relative. To me, he is like my parents."

·
Suddenly, Pounds shouted from the outside arena, "The ring has been changed!" ! '

·
Hearing this, the blond uncle said, "Rebecca, the game is about to start."

·
"Well," Rebecca reached out to put on the helmet, put on the shield with her left hand, and picked up her sword, ready to go on stage.

·
And Luffy hurriedly helped his vice-captain tidy up his clothes, pulled down her skirt and said seriously, "Encore! Don't let the skirt fly up! Don't kill anyone!"

·
"Don't worry, Captain. I'm much kinder now~~", Anke said with a smile, and then hugged Mr. Rabbit tightly with one hand, while holding a black umbrella in the other.

·
Seeing the obedient rabbit, Luffy said, "Enke, why don't you let me hold this rabbit first? Otherwise, it will be very troublesome during the competition."

·
"No," Anke shook his head unexpectedly, hugged the rabbit tenderly, looked at Luffy and said softly, "Luffy, this is my brother. Like me, he will only stay where he believes. People around. Sorry..."

·
Luffy was taken aback for a moment, then looked down at the expressionless Rabbit, and after thinking about it, he stretched out two hands and rubbed their heads respectively, and said with a smile, "I see, both of you should be careful. "

·
"Hmm~"

·
"No!!" Luffy suddenly came back to his senses and hugged his deputy captain, and said angrily, "Sure enough, I want to go to the arena with Encore!"

·
"Don't forget that there are a lot of people chasing and killing you outside, Captain~" Since he had something in both hands, An Ke directly hit him with the head lightly, "I'll just go out by myself, here There is a screen, you can watch it here~~”

·
The straw-hat captain with puffed cheeks reluctantly let go, and looked at his vice-captain anxiously. She didn't feel better until she flicked his forehead with one hand, "See you later in the final~ Encore, the rabbit is also~~~~~~~"

·
"Yes~~"

·
Rebecca kept watching their interaction, and after seeing Encore passing by her, she turned her head and said to Luffy who was standing there, "See you at the final, Lucy."

·
Luffy was taken aback, then just smiled and said, "Don't get hurt, Rebecca, thank you for inviting me to dinner~~"

·
Rebecca just pursed her lips slightly, then turned and left.Not far in front is the young lady who is dressed like a lady and doesn't even have a weapon or armor. Although the other party seems to be just here to watch and play, even holding a rabbit toy when playing, but after the short fight just now , Rebecca knew that the girl's strength was completely opposite to her appearance.

·
Lucy said 'see you in the final' to that girl, but 'don't get hurt' to himself, the difference is obvious...
