[One Piece]Nix likes idiots

Nyx walked alone in a deep and dark passage.

Her steps were silent. The broad cloak enveloped her whole body, and the drooping brim of her hat obscured her facial features, making her look like a black ghost wandering in the passage.

There are no torches or other lighting tools placed in the passage, but the wall itself is slightly fluorescent.

The ceiling, floor and walls on both sides are all earthy in color. The wall was smooth and flat, as if it had been polished. All the places where the walls meet are vertical, and even the corners when turning are perfect right angles.

At a fork in the road, Nyx met two strange men, one on the left and one on the right, blocking her way.

"Hey, woman." The person on the left shouted, "Our boss wants to see you."

The person on the right also looked condescending: "The boss is interested in your ability. This is your blessing."

Nix asked indifferently: "Who are you?"

"We are the subordinates of the Lord of the Labyrinth." Their faces were filled with pride, "The Lord of the Labyrinth is——"

The person on the left assumed a strange posture: "The most mysterious——"

The person on the right assumes a symmetrical pose: "The greatest——"

The left one changed his posture: "The most noble——"

The one on the right also changed his posture: "The richest——"

Finally, both sides said in unison: "The most powerful man——!"

Nicks remained indifferent: "I haven't heard of it."

The two were awkward in place.

They looked at each other and quickly adjusted themselves.

The person on the left laughed sinisterly: "Anyway, if you refuse to join the Labyrinth Pirates and serve us -"

The person on the right added the second half of the sentence: "You will be lost forever in the labyrinth created by the Lord of the Labyrinth."

manufacture……?

Nyx asked casually: "Is this also a maze he created?"

"Of course!" The person on the right raised his head slightly, "If you want to go out, just agree to join our Labyrinth Pirates!"

Nyx: "What about my friends?"

"They..." The smile on the left suddenly turned malicious, "If you are willing to please us, maybe you can know the answer."

The person on the right whispered a warning to his companion, but the person on the left didn't take it seriously and continued to look at Nyx with a smile.

"That's it...that's great..." Nyx seemed to be whispering, but also seemed to be responding.

Upon hearing this, the person on the left showed a successful smile to the right. The man on the right shook his head and stepped aside.

Nyx slowly walked towards the person on the left. Standing in front of him with his increasingly unbridled smile, he lifted his hat.

Eyes meet.

The eyes of the person on the left became empty for a moment.

After a few seconds, he fell limply to the ground.

When the person on the right saw this, he immediately pulled out his knife and pointed it at Nyx.

"What did you do?!" he asked warily.

Nyx had put her hood back on and didn't answer his intention.

She walked around the unconscious enemy and walked towards the intersection on the left.

"I'll say it again! No matter how you walk, you can't get out of this maze!" The remaining enemies helped up the limp body of their companion, "Your only way out is to join our pirate group!"

Nyx did not look back, and her figure gradually disappeared from the enemy's sight.

-

Deus, lying on the ground, woke up from a coma.

Where is he?

Deus stood up holding on to the wall.

wall……?

Wasn't he dragged underground?

"woke up?"

A familiar female voice sounded behind him. Even though he heard that sound every day, Deuce was still startled.

"Wow!" He turned around, clutching his racing heart, "Nix, has anyone ever told you not to suddenly speak behind others' backs!"

The surrounding environment was very dim, and Deus had to take a moment to let his eyes adapt to the brightness.

When he could see, he saw Nyx covered in a long black cloak. She leaned against the wall, her head slightly bowed. The wide hood fell down, covering all her expressions. The black cat was sitting on her shoulder, looking at him with a pair of cat eyes without emotion.

Hmm...that's weird, wasn't Nia left on the ship by Nyx? Why are you here?

Seeing that he seemed to have adapted to the surrounding environment, Nyx stood up straight and took steps towards the direction Deus was facing at the moment.

"Follow."

"Oh." Deus ignored his own questions and hurriedly followed.

As he followed Nyx, Deus quickly took stock of their current environment.

"Where are we now?"

Nyx: "Maze."

"Maze?" Deus pressed his temple, "I remember that we were pulled into the underground...underground maze?"

Nix: "Yeah."

Deus: "Where are the others? Have you seen them?"

Nix: "No."

Deus: "Then are we going to go now...?"

Nyx: "Looking for someone."

Deus was overjoyed and trotted to Nyx: "Do you know where they were taken?!"

Nyx's answer was still short: "Here."

Deus: "Here... does this mean it's in this maze?"

Nix: "Yeah."

Deus suddenly realized belatedly that Nyx seemed to be in a bad mood.

"Did something happen?"

The first person to respond to him was a "buzzing" sound coming from deep in the passage.

Deus was so frightened that his hair stood on end: "What is the sound?!"

Nyx paused and listened for a moment, then moved on without saying a word.

Deus followed behind Nyx tremblingly.

"Durrulu... Dulurulu... Dulurulu..."

The sound is getting closer.

What appeared in front of them was a phone bug that kept ringing.

"What...it's just a phone bug." Deus breathed a sigh of relief, "Who fell here?"

But Nyx passed by the phone bug as if she didn't see it.

Deus: "Don't worry about it?"

Nix: "No need."

Deus shrugged: "Okay."

If Ace were here, with his strong curiosity, he would definitely pick up the phone bug as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Deus' mood also worsened.

I wonder how Ace is doing now. I must be very anxious. I hope he won't be too impulsive.

Nyx must also be depressed because she is worried about Ace.

The phone was ringing relentlessly, and the sound of "buzzing" echoed in the deep and dark passage.

Fake, fake, just pretend it doesn't exist.

Deus stared at Nyx's back intently, hypnotizing himself in his mind.

At some point, the phone bug finally went quiet.

At the same time, another phone bug appeared out of thin air in front of them.

A phone bug on the phone.

Deus subconsciously turned around and was surprised to find that the phone bug that had been left behind had disappeared.

"How indifferent, the lady with the black cat." A arrogant and frivolous voice came from the phone bug.

Nyx said nothing and continued to move forward.

Although Deus was curious, he could only catch up: "Hey, wait for me!"

The ignored phone bug appeared in front of them again.

"Is it time to give up?" Even though he was ignored just now, the voice was as high as ever, "My subordinates should have told you that no one can get out of this maze without my permission."

"Lord of the Labyrinth?" Nyx finally stopped.

"Yes, I am the great Master of the Labyrinth!" the Master of the Labyrinth said confidently, "I have come to invite you personally, am I sincere enough?"

Lord of the Labyrinth? invite?

Deus listened in confusion, but Nyx seemed to be at ease, so he did not speak rashly, but listened to the conversation between the two with vigilance.

Nyx glanced at the phone bug on the ground: "In person?"

"Hey! Woman! It only takes three, and the great Lord of the Labyrinth is already graciously giving you a fourth chance!" The Lord of the Labyrinth warned angrily, "As long as you agree to join my pirate group, I can Regardless of past grudges, I will release you from the maze immediately."

He added: "And your original partners, I can also let them live."

Deus understood this time.

The so-called Master of the Labyrinth is threatening their lives to force Nyx to agree to join the new pirate group.

After thinking about this, Deus immediately looked at Nyx. But...he couldn't see Nyx's expression.

"A way out?" There was no emotion in Nyx's voice. "You mean a life like putting on handcuffs and digging for gold for you?"

"Then, continue to threaten me with their lives?"

The person on the other side was silent at first, and then became furious in disbelief: "How did you know!"

Nyx hung up the phone bug.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet.

"So..." Deus considered how to speak, "The Lord of the Labyrinth and the Labyrinth...? And..."

"He can hear it," Nyx said suddenly, "and he can see it too."

Deus immediately understood what she meant.

This maze... may be under the surveillance of the maze lord.

Is he a Devil Fruit user? This is going to be tricky.

The phone bug suddenly disappeared and reappeared in a connected state.

"You seem to know a lot." The Master of the Labyrinth seemed to calm down, "I appreciate you more and more."

Nyx turned and walked away without any intention of paying any attention to him.

"I love taming feral cats like you."

"Fame, power, wealth...what do you want?"

The phone bug kept chattering around them.

"Everyone who believed they could get out of the maze had to bow to me and beg for mercy."

"While I'm still in the mood, add..."

Once again, Nyx hung up on the phone bug.

On the other end of the phone, the Master of the Labyrinth was shaking with anger after being hung up for the second time.

In front of him were two telephone bugs and two miniature models of different mazes.

One of them is the underground maze where Nyx is.

And in another maze... Ace is avoiding the endless traps in the maze.

He was also holding a phone bug in his hand. Despite the embarrassing situation, Ace smiled happily.

"I knew that Nyx would never agree to it."
