[One Piece] Almighty staff

The casino in the high-rise area of ​​the Grand Hotel on Saiken Island occupies three floors and needs to be reached by a special elevator.

This casino has high-end decoration and rich and varied gambling methods. The middle of the night is the craziest time for gamblers.

Leah waited for two hours in the rest area on the first floor.She drank fruit juice and ate small snacks, and observed all kinds of people in the casino in a remote corner, including rich and well-dressed gamblers sitting around the gaming table, and rich kids with disheveled clothes and red eyes.

It is often difficult for gamblers in the casino to maintain the restraint they live outside. No matter how refined and elegant they are when they enter, most gamblers will inevitably gamble with a hideous face in the end.

Liya seems to be watching a show, and it's right to pass the time.

She has good eyes, and she can also see the hands and feet on the gaming table when the gamblers are excited. The croupiers smile decently, and they quietly search for the fat of the gamblers.

Leah didn't think much of it.The large sums of bets in the hands of these well-capitalized gamblers are just for fun, and they can reach out to civilians when they run out of pockets, and she doesn't feel sorry for anyone being tricked.

In comparison, she was more curious about who made the money in the end.

Asking the male waiter to refill the glass of orange juice, Liya leaned on the soft sofa, her eyes slowly scanned the hall, and suddenly found a familiar figure walking in the door.

She put down the glass in some surprise, and straightened her upper body from the back of the sofa. Just as she opened her mouth, the sound that was about to burst out of her throat was blocked by cheers from the poker table not far away.

Leah shut her mouth helplessly, got up and planned to take a trip by herself.The man's eyesight was stronger, and even his peripheral vision was very sharp. When he caught sight of her who was hesitant to speak, he stopped, turned around and walked over calmly.

He is more calm and upright than when we first met, and his sharp aura is slightly restrained.When Liya turned around to ask for a glass of red wine, a tall and long-legged man had already arrived in front of her.

Leah handed him the red wine glass, smiling pleasantly: "Mr. Zhurojier, what a coincidence."

Hawkeye took the drink and nodded reservedly: "Long time no see, Miss Leah."

Leah asked him to sit down and talk: "Why are you here?"

The question was like this, she thought in her heart that it must not be because of the rumors of the magma chamber, right?

The information about the magma room began to leak out from nowhere, and it spread very fast abnormally.In just one afternoon, residents and tourists on Seken Island began to talk about it, and they said it in a decent way.

Hawkeye held the cup: "Take the knife."

Only then did Leah realize that he didn't have a saber by his side.And I thought that sure enough, a great swordsman who is dedicated to the way of the sword should not be easily disturbed by rumors...

"I heard that the magma room is here, so I made an appointment to pick up the knife here."

Leah: "..."

After speaking the truth calmly and seriously, Mr. Da Jianhao took a sip of red wine with a skillful gesture.But Liya clearly felt the excitement of wanting to watch the excitement from his handsome side face with neat lines to every pore of his slender fingers that were whitened by the red wine.

Speaking of it, Hawkeye looks like a cold and indifferent person, but he ran thousands of miles to watch the execution of One Piece; he also participated in the battle on the top; after that, Luffy's partner Sauron fell into his territory , he also accepted the teaching, and also raised the little ghost girl by the way.

It is not a big deal to love to watch the excitement, and it is not wrong to say that he is a pirate.

With such a mess of people and things in the casino, Liya has been sitting alone in the corner for so long, and she has never been disturbed.She guessed that Sakalski had prepared it.

Leah lowered her voice and asked Hawkeye, "Does Mr. Zhuro Kil think this is true?"

He served a small plate of foie gras with wine from the waiter's tray with great interest, and said frankly: "When the navy established a base on Faus Island in the early years, there were rumors about it.

It is said that some kind of weapons of mass destruction comparable to ancient weapons are stored in the naval base, and the rumors about the magma chamber are spread after these weapons have been overplayed. "

Liya, who knew a little bit of the inside story, thumped in her heart.

There are indeed unknown high-density weapons in the naval base, and the magma room is also true, but both news have been spread. Was it a purposeful abandonment of the car to save the commander, or was it forced to be exposed together?

No wonder Sakarski needs to come out to solve it.

Hawkeye glanced at her lightly: "You work in the Navy Headquarters, haven't you heard any rumors?"

Liya smiled: "If there is news, I won't ask you. Besides, Liya can't reach such a large-scale event at all."

Her answer was ambiguous, and Hawkeye didn't mean to embarrass her:

"It is more credible to say that there are pirates who have taken a fancy to the economic value of Seken Island and want to rely on rumors to force out competitors. The pirates who spread the rumors have a background of aristocrats, but the backing of the current hot spring resort is said to be the world government. .”

Hawkeye slowly sliced ​​open the foie gras, and at the same time generously presented the important information that Leah hadn't had time to collect.And politely share wine and side dishes with her.Give yourself a drink refill after being declined:

"Neither the world government nor the navy has made any major moves, and the authenticity of the magma chamber itself is doubtful. However, the naval base on Faus Island has been affected a lot by such rumors. Presumably, the world government and the navy will not let go of the rumors easily. A gossip."

"Compared to the magma room, the confrontation between the government and the pirates with subtle identities is more interesting. I don't know if the government will back down this time."

Zhu Luojier is not a person who likes to talk. He has a strong personality. Although he speaks in an orderly manner, he is never only willing to talk about his own concerns.Today's words can be regarded as a care for her.

Liya thanked him very much, and reminded him: "Mr. Zhuro Kil has recently become famous, and he is very eye-catching on the great channel."

The number has already been registered, and the list of Qi Wuhai has not yet been determined. I hope Mr. Jianhao pays attention.

Mr. Jianhao was so calm: "I know."

Facing the current situation full of rumors, Akainu can still be as immovable as a mountain, so it is estimated that there is already a solution.

Saken Island, which arrived in the afternoon, pulled her out without eating in the evening.Originally, Liya thought that he was talking about entertaining at the dinner table, and thought that she would just quietly fill her stomach when the time came.

Who knew that instead of going to the restaurant on the roof, she went directly to the casino and told her to wait.As a result, after waiting for an hour, among other things, the drinks and snacks were mostly half full.In case there was really a meal in the evening, Leah put down the small fork and stopped eating.

Leah ordered a newspaper, and Hawkeye sat down and chatted casually.

This was the third time she saw Hawkeye after sending out the calling order.The second time was at sea, when she was not out in the navy, but in a newly purchased merchant ship.By chance, she invited Hawkeye to board the ship, and by the way, she refused the meal she had mentioned.

Maybe the fried pork and glutinous glutinous rice balls after the meal were more appetizing, and Liya got a little kindness from the future number one swordsman.

I just feel a little bit... easy to get the friendship of the number one swordsman in this way?

As soon as Liya had this idea, she suddenly felt that she was a bit of a cheap and obedient erratic energy, she secretly reflected on herself, and quickly fell back to the ground.

The era of great voyages is full of turmoil every day, and there are big news almost every day.The president of the World Economic News Agency, Morgan, is a news lunatic who dares to publish any content. For this reason, he has become a thorn in the eyes of countless people. In his early years, countless assassinations by his enemies were frequent.

But now the World Economic Daily has influence all over the world and has become a rare and huge source of information output in the New World. Morgan has also maintained an ingenious balance, relying on his ability to gain a foothold in the great channel.Few people dare to really take his life now.

This person, she is afraid that sooner or later she will get in touch with him.

In a small panel in the lower right corner, Liya saw a message about the escape of the murloc slaves of the Celestial Dragons from St. Mary Gioia. She was immediately vigilant, and she decided to avoid Sakaski to contact Drago at a later date. , the business of buying people from the servants of Tianlong people can no longer be done for the time being.

Hawkeye put the glass away after his second drink.A pair of sharp eyes slowly looked at the surrounding gambling tables.Wherever you look, the noise of the crowd is obviously lowered. .seven

Liya realized that Hawkeye intended to guard her for a while to scare Xiaoxiao, and felt a little embarrassed. She didn't tell Hawkeye that she came out with Admiral Akainu, and it was inconvenient to say that she was on a mission.

She leaned over and said in a low voice, "Mr. Jurokiel, go about your own business, and Leah doesn't have to worry about it here."

Hawkeye responded lightly, but his eyes did not fall on her: "Is it a guard?"

Leah was stunned.

Hawkeye: "There has been a very strong line of sight looking at this side. If it is a guard, then there is really no need to worry. It seems to be a very loyal guard."

Leah thought for a moment, and admitted with curled lips: "Well, I came out with a very powerful friend. Because of the rumors on Seken Island, I'm afraid it's not safe to go out alone."

Hawkeye raised his eyebrows: "Very strong? With a knife?"

Leah smiled: "He doesn't have a weapon he's used to, he's a physicist."

Hawkeye lost interest: "Oh."

Mr. Da Jianhao, who is keen to challenge powerful swordsmen, was simply coaxed away by her.Leah scanned the environment of the casino again, got up and walked towards a high wall with black marble texture on the right.

Because the light was dim, and the wall had light gray irregular cracks, she thought it was a wall made of marble at first, so she didn't hesitate too much.

But after a little observation, you can find the mirror glaze color on the wall, and you can see a clear reflection on it when you get close.

This is clearly a glass wall.

As soon as Liya expressed her intention to approach and touch the wall, a male waiter in a small black vest appeared almost immediately. He was slender and handsome. With a charming smile, he bent slightly and approached She whispered in her ear: "Guest, is there anything I can do for you?"

Leah remained calm and politely replied: "No."

The smooth movement of the male waiter paused imperceptibly: "So, what do you need?"

Leah took another step towards the front wall as he spoke.

The waiter couldn't stand anymore, he turned around deftly, half of his body blocked Leah's way forward: "Is our casino boring you?"

He was wearing white gloves, and his arms were raised to guide in the other direction: "You don't seem to have participated in any games."

Liya took a small step back, and the movement of the opponent raised his hand and half-surrounded her suddenly exceeded her safe distance.

She feels unwell.

The male waiter put down his hands and smiled apologetically: "There is a shopping area specially opened for ladies next to the casino, where guests can go for entertainment. Recently, there are many fashionable clothes in the new world."

Leah also knew that her simple and fresh white dress was not appropriate in the casino.Everyone is gorgeous and glamorous. Not only does it look like a single person, but it is also set off as a small white flower. This is not a good thing.

She didn't even need to look in the mirror to guess that she looked bully right now.And the mirrored wall on the opposite side also honestly reflected that she was out of place with this place.

However, she has no plans to change her attire.

Quickly smoothing the frowning eyebrows, Liya looked over the waiter and looked at the wall, and said softly, "I'm looking for someone."

The male waiter hesitated for a while: "Then please follow me to the service desk..."

A soft blue light suddenly lit up on the wall, wandering around and outlining the shape of a door, the waiter closed his mouth and stepped aside respectfully.

The mirrored door moves out from the inside to the left, and the tall body of Akainu appears behind the door.He came out, looked down at her, and said in a deep voice, "Come in."

Liya observed the scene inside the door, which seemed to be a spacious room, the light was very dark, and only a large round table in the middle could be vaguely seen, surrounded by sofa chairs.

Before she could see any doorway, Liya was suddenly hooked, and her toes were lifted off the ground to enter the door. The mirror door behind her also slid and closed, turning back into a wall with perfect fit.

It wasn't until her butt touched the soft sofa that she could clearly see five or six large single sofas around the round table, all of which were filled with people.

The seat next to her sank, and it was Sakaski who sat down. There was room on the big sofa, but he sat next to her, and after sitting down, he held her waist and brought her into his arms.

Before Liya could react, she felt her cheek being touched gently and gently.

Leah:? ? ?

A familiar blond man moved out from the sofa, and asked with a look of surprise: "General Akainu, this is yours..."

Sakaski pressed the back of her neck, and said in a calm tone, "Family."

This man, Leah remembered, was the one who approached her at the port today.

The person sitting right next to him was also an acquaintance, and it was Miss Nina from Pasalina's family.

The blond man introduced to her enthusiastically: "This is my sister, and her mother is one of my aunts. It's a pleasure to see you again, beautiful lady. When I first met General Akainu, I guessed that there might be a chance See you again, sure enough..."

The blond hair began to chatter, and Miss Nina's eyes sent her the question of "how can I meet you everywhere".

Leah could only keep smiling, and tried to break Sakalski's hand and get off him.

The change of scene and characters was too sudden, a bit more than she expected.She needs a little time.

--------

The new ship set sail from Bahrain Island for the first time, and after almost a week, Lili was still very excited: "Li Ya Li Ya, this ship is so beautiful (*≧▽≦)?"

Liya sat on the deck and read a book in her special rocking chair, and let Lili run from the bow to the stern, the sound of footsteps running away until she couldn't hear her, and then came back after a while, in the presence of Lily The side announced: "Lili will be the captain of the Lily Rose in the future~ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ"

Leah turned a page and vetoed him with a smile: "Lily Rose is Leah's ship. If Lili wants to be the captain, he can build his own when he grows up."

The Rose is also used to transport "goods" from the holy land of Mary Gioia, and the case will not always be clean, so it is better not to get involved with Lili.She has not touched the property left to Lili by her parents, and it is also possible for Lili to buy a boat with it in the future.

Lili was not angry when she heard that.He thought about it carefully, and discussed with Liya: "It will take a long time for Lili to grow up and make money, otherwise Lili will become the deputy captain?"

Leah: "Yes, but you can only be the deputy captain when Leah is around."

Lili thought it was acceptable, and ran to announce the good news of the promotion to the sailors.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, the sun, which had been half-covered behind the clouds, revealed the whole picture, and the white clouds all over the sky suddenly disappeared. The sky was cloudless, and the temperature suddenly rose, which was hotter than two or three o'clock in the afternoon.

Liya closed the book and planned to go back to the cabin.

When they got up, they found an ominously shaped raft coming this way from the course they were traveling in.

A familiar figure stood above, with his right hand on his waist, he drew out a blade that shone with cold light.

At this time, the man and Liya met their eyes, paused for two seconds, and then slowly retracted the knife.

Leah: "..."

Although he wasn't using the famous black knife at this time, Leah had no doubt that it would never affect his ability to split her boat in half with one strike.

In order to avoid more embarrassment, Leah could only pretend that she didn't see the movement of the opponent drawing and withdrawing the knife clearly.

After the two parties approached, Leah greeted politely: "Good afternoon, Mr. Jurokiel."

Lili was lying on the side of the boat beside her, and when she heard her greeting, he also waved enthusiastically: "Good afternoon! Come to Lili's deputy captain's boat for dinner (*≧▽≦)/~Leah's Xiaochao肉超~ Delicious~ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ”

Hawkeye: "Yes."

Leah: "...^_^"
