One Piece: The bond lasts forever

  "Hmm... Huanyue, don't you want to eat it? This is really delicious!" Luffy, who was eating haise, saw that Huanyue only had a piece of bread in his hand, and unexpectedly took out a small piece of barbecue and handed it to him. passed.

  This is already a very rare behavior for Luffy. It's good that he didn't grab the food in Huanyue's hand.

  "Emmmm..." Looking at the large piece of greasy barbecue on the extended rubber hand, Huanyue, who was not hungry at first, immediately dissipated her little appetite. The greasiness was acceptable. , then what’s going on with that big tooth mark on your upper body?

  "I'm not hungry." Raising his hand and "feeding" the untouched bread to Luffy, Huanyue said that he was not hungry.

  When Luffy heard these words, he immediately lowered his head in concentration, with only barbecue in his eyes.

  Watching the interaction between the two little ones over there, Maginot curled her lips and her pupils were full of tenderness: "Huanyue, did you come here just recently? Why have I never seen you before?"

  "I just came here not long ago." The girl replied indifferently without even raising her eyes, and her fingertips were entangled in circles of hair to play with.

  "Who did you come with? Where are your parents?"

  "..." After a moment of silence, Huanyue, who couldn't tell lies, raised her black eyes, stared at Maginot, and answered honestly: "I did it myself."

  "As for my parents..." After a pause, her eyes were dazzled by the dazzling sunlight outside the window, Huanyue squinted, "I have no parents."

  That indifferent tone seemed to be talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

  Maginot didn't know what to say for a moment. She seemed to have asked something she shouldn't have asked, right?

  Huanyue didn't take it seriously. She was almost a ball of human-shaped gas and had lived for hundreds of years. She didn't need or want things like her parents.

  Seeing that Huanyue had no intention of continuing, and knowing that she was not willing to reveal too much to an outsider like herself, Maginot sighed. After all, a child who had lost his parents was considered a relative in this chaotic era of great pirates. It's common.

  "Huan Yue, is it okay to use burp jelly if you are injured? (Huanyue, what is that thing on your back?)" Luffy, who was full of barbecue, came over with his cheeks puffed out and asked inarticulately.

  "Emm..." Huanyue said, well, what did you just say? The wind was so strong that I couldn't hear clearly.

  "Luffy wants to ask about the knife on your back." Royal translator Makino pointed to the black knife on Huanyue's back with a smile.

  After being stunned for a moment, Huanyue pulled An An out of the scabbard.

  This is a black knife, with a black-gold blade, and the blade is shining with cold light. Even a person who doesn't understand knives can know that this is definitely a good knife, but the blade exudes a dark and cold aura, making curious people reach out. Luffy couldn't help but shudder as he played with it in his hand, and hurriedly threw it back to Huanyue.

  "What a strange knife, Huanyue, why do you always carry this knife?" Luffy shrank his shoulders in discomfort and looked at the black knife. "It makes me feel very uncomfortable."

  "It has always been following me. It is a very important thing to me." Wiping the black knife gently, Huanyue Gujing Bubo's eyes seemed to have a little bit of different emotions, but they were too weak to be distinguished. "Its The name is An."

  "This knife feels so cold." Luffy lost interest in Yami and returned to the barbecue.

  For Luffy, meat is the most important thing besides being the Pirate King.

  "By the way Huanyue, do you have somewhere to go?" Luffy stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth and suddenly thought of something, he hurriedly swallowed it and turned his head to look at the girl.

  Huanyue thought about it for a moment, and she probably didn't. After all, she had been wandering aimlessly.

  "...Probably not." After a moment of silence, Huanyue replied.

  "Then Huanyue, can you stay here? It's boring to be alone in Windmill Village." Luffy's eyes lit up, and he immediately stretched out his arms and put them on Huanyue's shoulders, suggesting in an excited tone.

  Huanyue looked at Luffy. The young man's dark eyes were bright and sincere, with a bit of eagerness, and his whole face was filled with excitement and hope.

  It seems that it doesn't matter if you stay.

  After thinking for a while, Huanyue slowly said: "I don't have a place to live."

  After hearing this, Luffy was about to return to his seat in despair, but Maginot said with a smile: "If Huanyue is willing, you can come to my place to help me. Although there is no salary, food and housing are included. "

  For Maginot, although the tavern is not big, it is quite laborious to be alone. Although Luffy often helps him, Luffy, who is impatient and clumsy, can always break a few cups or plates every time. , Huanyue is not only older than Luffy, but also looks very stable, so he might as well let her help him.

  Thinking of this, coupled with Huanyue's previous statement that she had no parents, Maginot almost judged Huanyue as an orphan, and a lot of pity grew in her heart.

  Hearing what Maginot said, Luffy, who was hopeful again, immediately laughed and asked Huanyue for his opinion: "Then Huanyue, can you stay?"

  Looking at the silly but healing smile in front of her, Huanyue lowered her head and hesitated for a moment, then raised her head to look at Maginot, opened her lips slightly, and uttered a word.

  "it is good."

  Hearing Huanyue's answer, Luffy laughed happily, stretched out his hand to straighten the straw hat on his head, with a serious look on his face.

  "Then please give me more advice from now on, Huanyue."
