Pirate: I'm making a clone behind the scenes

Although Natsu was angry at the time, he still brought Smoothie back after the battle with Madara Uchiha.

After all, they are good partners in future 'business', so we can't miss this opportunity to build a good relationship.

"I'm thick-skinned and have no problems at all!"

Natsu replied with a smile and patted his chest, telling her not to worry.

After all, with the blessing of dual dragon-slaying magic, coupled with the effect of a strong appetite, both physical strength and injury recovery speed are far beyond the reach of others.

For now, calling him the No. 1 physique under Kaido is not an exaggeration!

After all, not everyone in One Piece is called Kaido and Big Mom, even if they are good at physical fitness!

To at least reach this level, in addition to talent, the blessing of the fantasy beast species cannot be ignored.

However, in Smooth's eyes, this action seemed like a show of pretentiousness in order to prevent her from worrying and feeling guilty.

Smoothie gained a new understanding of the 'little' man in front of him!

It was like when she was in the cabin before, she secretly overheard the other members of the ship showing concern and greetings to Natsu that didn't seem to be fake.

It is enough to prove that this man is a kind-hearted and gentle person.

Looking at his pale pink hair, which was as charming as cherry blossoms, swaying in the breeze, Smoothie's cheeks suddenly felt hot, and he lowered his head slightly, his long eyelashes trembling slightly, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes. With a touch of shame, he didn't dare to look at Natsu again.

Natsu looked at Smoothie, who had difficulty with his legs and feet, and suddenly lowered his head in silence.

After signaling Dopon, who had bandaged the wound, to get out of the way, he stood up and walked towards Smoothie.

Natsu, who was about 1 meters, less than two meters tall, stood next to Smoothie, who was about 75 meters tall, less than five meters tall.

Natsu isn't even as long as Smoothie's legs!

Smoothie, who is a half-blood of the Ashin clan, has more than two-thirds of his body's height just by the length of his legs.

In other words, Smoothie's legs alone are more than three meters long, which is taller than Natsu, and his feet can't even touch the height of his mouth.

Fortunately, Natsu, who is very nervous, doesn't care about this. He is not in love, nor does height matter in business.

As for Smoothie, he has lived in a country with a wide variety of species since he was a child, so he doesn't care anymore!

Not to mention a mere two meters, she has seen people with a height difference of five or six meters beside her mother.

Besides, Natsu can transform, right?

Thinking of Natsu's transformed figure, who was taller than himself, he didn't know if something suddenly occurred to him, and his face that dropped down became even more rosy, as if he was warming himself by a fire.

Even the top of her head began to release the sweet smell of juice.

"What's wrong? Are you still feeling unwell?"

Looking at Smoothie who was silent and his whole face was on fire, Natsu stepped forward and asked with concern.

He didn't want to think that the 'money bag' he finally saved would not die in the hands of Madara Uchiha, but would end up on his own ship!

That's true. Jumping from the Red Earth Continent into the Grand Line, you can't even wash yourself away.

In order to determine whether Smoothie was sick, Natsu was ready to reach out and test the temperature of Smoothie's forehead.

But after comparing his height, Natsu frowned slightly, and then directly changed into the dragon mode, which was just a head taller than Smoothie.

After canceling the dragon's claw, Natsu stretched out his big hand and attached it to the distracted Smoothie's head.

"It's okay. It's not hot at all. It's probably not a fever."

After feeling the temperature on Smoothie's head, which was enough to fry an egg, Natsu came to a conclusion.

"Hey~!"

Smoothie, who was brought back to his senses by Natsu's intimate behavior, screamed and instinctively wanted to move back.

But when she raised her head and saw the man who cared about her seriously, she stopped dead in her tracks. Unfortunately, because of her previous leg injury, she couldn't control her body properly while limping, and threw herself into Natsu's arms. , his little head rested tightly against Natsu's warm chest.

"Puff~Put~"

The powerful heartbeat echoed in Smoothie's mind.

"Um, are you okay?"

Seeing Smoothie falling in his arms for no apparent reason, Natsu didn't think much and subconsciously wrapped his arms around him.

"Hmm~"

Along with Smoothie, a subtle sound of unknown meaning is made.

A soft touch like water made Natsu subconsciously tighten his embrace.

It also made Smoothie, who was still distracted in her arms, subconsciously make a strange sound that was not in line with her personality.

Just when the atmosphere between the two was somewhat ambiguous.

"wc!"

Dopon, who was silently packing the medical kit after Natsu stood up, raised his head and saw the shocking scene in front of him, and subconsciously shouted out.

Then, realizing that something was wrong, he quickly covered his big mouth, looked at his nose and mouth, and lowered his head carefully.

If this were in Blue Star, Duopeng would definitely turn on his phone immediately and initiate a request for help:

What should I do to break the intimate moment between the boss and his girlfriend? Waiting online, urgent!

Natsu and Smoothie came back to their senses when they heard Dopon's sudden voice.

Without bothering to explain, Smoothie broke away from Natsu's arms and limped back to the cabin in a hurry.

All that was left on the entire deck was Dopon with his head lowered, a confused Natsu, and the sweet fragrance left by Smoothie.

"That...that, Natsu-sama, I..."

Just when Doppon was about to explain, he saw Naz walking into Smoothie's room.

Duopeng was stunned on the spot.

'wc, boss, has he found true love?Aren’t you going to betray anyone? '

Ignoring Doppon's distracted thoughts, Natsu just remembered that the business hadn't been discussed in detail yet. He planned to go see Smoothie's abnormal state first, and then discuss the details of the transaction.

At least that's what Natsu thought before he walked in...

"Well!"
