Pirate: My crew are all emperors?

The 'coded words' between the two were interrupted by movement coming from their feet.

Liz took out a pen and a piece of rough tissue paper from behind her, slowly wrote a string of small words and handed them to Rocks.

This made Rocks' face freeze. Although he had learned the language of this world in these days, he was still illiterate in terms of writing.

After coughing awkwardly, Rocks said to Edward:

"Well, look at what she wrote."

"I?"

Edward pointed at his nose blankly, and then shook his head quickly. If it was okay to let him fight, let him learn to read?Sorry, Zi may know him, but he definitely doesn't know Zi.

Both people on the boat were illiterate, which made Liz's hand holding the pen and paper froze. She seemed a little at a loss. She opened her mouth to say something, but could not make any sound.

I could only lower my head and silently hold the pen and paper in my hand, tears gradually gathering in my eyes.

Her appearance made both Rocks and Edward feel uncomfortable. Needless to say, Rocks, although he behaved extremely cruelly when facing the pirates, at heart he was a person from the 21st century after all, and he had received a good education. Let him have no superior views. No matter who they are, as long as they do not pose a threat to him, they can all get along with each other as equals.

Although Edward had been on a pirate ship, he had never done anything to a child, and the same was true for his companions. Apart from looting treasures, they never even harmed others, let alone little girls.

Seeing this, Rocks could only try to ask:

"You want to get on the boat and leave with us?"

Liz raised her head, looked at Rocks with tearful eyes, and then nodded slightly.

But this is not easy to accept. There are two big men on the boat and a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old. What kind of combination is this?

"You just believe in us? Are you afraid that we will sell you?"

"I...believe you...big brother..."

Suddenly, Rocks heard a voice in his head, and quickly raised his head and looked around:

"Who? Who is talking?"

Edward looked at him inexplicably:

"what happened to you?"

"Did you hear anything just now?" Rocks asked quickly.

"Sounds? The sound of the wind? The sound of seagulls?"

"No, it sounds like a little girl..." Rocks paused, looked at Liz next to him in disbelief, and tried to ask:

"Were you the one talking just now?"

Liz was also stunned by Rocks' words, and then lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking, but Rocks heard the voice again:

"My... name is... Liz..."

"Liz, right?"

Locks squatted in front of the little girl and whispered the name.

Liz quickly raised her head, looking at Rocks with unprecedented joy in her eyes, and kept nodding.

The situation in front of him left Edward confused. What was going on with these two people?

In fact, even Rocks himself couldn't figure out what was going on. It was like this when he first met the pirates, and then it appeared again on the food island. Now this is the third time. Did he get it? Ability to listen to other people’s ideas?But why didn't it take effect when facing Edward or others?

"Liz, do you really want to go to sea with us?"

"Well...I can feel that you are a very good person, big brother. Please take me away! I can help with cleaning...cooking..."

Liz's expression became a little more pleading, and at the same time, these words also sounded in Rocks' mind.

"But we are pirate hunters. We live in danger every day. We may conflict with pirates at some point."

"I'm not afraid! I...I can also learn to fight!"

"This……"

Rocks hesitated to speak. Although these words rang directly in his mind, he still saw Liz's determination in her eyes, and she wanted to leave with him.

"Edward, wait for me on the boat first." Rocks suddenly told Edward beside him, and then jumped onto the dock with Liz in his arms.

"Eh? You...where are you going?"

Rocks did not answer Edward, but carried Liz back to the alley.

"Are you unhappy living here?"

"Well... after my mother left, everyone didn't like me. Although occasionally some kind people would help me, but... I don't want to cause them any more trouble."

"Then you're not afraid of causing trouble for me?" Rocks couldn't help but ask, and Liz fell silent.

After a long time, the small voice sounded again:

"I'm sorry, but... I saw you guys ashore with the navy before, and I felt that you must be a very powerful and kind-hearted person, big brother. I stole your wallet before, hoping that you could catch up with me alone... but then I didn't Those people saw it..."

"..."

What reason is this?Just because you wanted to keep up with her, did you steal your wallet?If someone else has a bad temper, why don't they just arrest him and give him a beating?

"This idea is not advisable. Even if you want to say hello to me, wouldn't it be better to just appear in front of me? Stealing is shameful, do you understand?"

"Sorry……"

"Okay, don't say you're sorry. If you want to get on the boat, then I have to see your role. It's not easy on my boat. If you're just a vase, I'll throw you to the next island."

Rocks said in a vicious tone, but Liz didn't look scared at all. Instead, she hugged Rocks' legs and said in surprise:

"Brother, did you promise to let me get on the boat?"

"I told you that we still need to inspect it. Didn't you say before that you can clean and cook? From now on, these two things on the ship will be left to you. Do you accept it?"

"Ok!"

Liz nodded quickly. Rocks did not continue to be pretentious. The child's situation was indeed not optimistic. Judging from the words of those gangsters before, she had been treated like this before, but she never had a suitable opportunity to leave.

Now that she has met someone who can make her feel at ease, she is naturally unwilling to let this opportunity go.

"But before I leave, I have to do a few more things."

……

"Brother, that boy was too arrogant today. He actually dared to do this to his brothers."

"That's right, if others find out about this, how can they get away with it?"

A group of gangsters were sitting around in a dark room, talking to each other. The man called 'Big Brother' became irritated, slapped the table and stood up:

"Stop arguing, that guy is a man who has gained the power of a demon. Do you think you can deal with him?"

The gangsters fell silent immediately.

Suddenly, a smart-looking little man waved his hand and shouted:

"Brother, I have an idea."

"What's the idea?"

"I heard that people who eat devil fruits will be disgusted by the sea and lose their power as long as they touch the sea water. Then we can put a few buckets of sea water in ambush. After we have led him into the trap, we can pour sea water on him. Body, this way he will definitely not be able to resist, and he will not let us handle it then!"

The words of this little gangster made other people's eyes light up. Devil Fruit users are afraid of sea water, but they are not afraid of it. This method sounds very feasible!

"Then who's going to lure him here?"

The crowd did not know who said such a sentence.

Although they didn't know who had spoken, everyone's eyes were subconsciously on the person who proposed the idea.

"S-shall I go?"

"Who else but you? Since it was your idea, it's up to you to act."

The gangster leader was about to instruct his men to arrange a trap when he heard the voice that asked the question before sounded again:

"Don't bother, I'm already here."
