One Piece's Life

I stopped after just a few steps out of the room, gave some instructions to the guards on the side, walked back to the room, and left the dim passage.

Lying in bed, I could also activate my heart network to sense the palace directly above me. I promised not to interfere with Xiuzi's decision, so I would not disturb his decision...

The palace directly above was already full of people, and guards serving different masters were surrounding the palace door several times. The middle-aged man sitting in the middle of the hall saw that everyone had arrived, so the meeting would officially begin.

"Members of the royal family and my children, I am summoning you this time mainly because the neighboring Dolphin Country is preparing to launch a war against our Tea Country. Although it has been harassing our caravans in the past few years, this time there is intelligence It shows that they are ready and I don’t know if you have any good decisions.”

The surrounding royal family members began to talk cautiously, and a few were thinking foolishly.

After a while, Bell, who was standing next to the king, said to the royal family members at the table: "Everyone, please be quiet. The king has some instructions to explain to all the royal family members."

The guards stood uniformly on both sides, and the middle-aged man looked at the scene in front of him with emotion. After the palace became unusually quiet, he began his monologue:

"You must have noticed that little Germain was not present. My naughty son actually teamed up with the Dolphin Kingdom to deal with his father. He has now been secretly imprisoned."

The palace immediately became quiet, everyone was waiting for the middle-aged man's next words. "But it seems that little Germain has named a few accomplices. There is no so-called Dolphin Country that wants to launch a war against us. It is all actions entrusted by Little Germain to the gangsters from the Dolphin Country. They have been harassing our country in the past few years. merchant ship."

"My children, if you admit your mistake now, I can personally punish you. Of course, this meeting is mainly to decide who will be the heir to the throne. Children, who of you would like to be the heir can be named."

The royal family members in the palace listened to the king's story in shock, and everyone's expression was different. There were two little princesses who were frightened by the serious look of their father and kept crying. The maids beside them comforted the little princesses and slowly left the palace in their arms.

Xiuzi in the hall was also stunned by this shocking information. At this time, he was sitting on a chair and angrily holding the handle of the goblet in front of him.

How could Brother Germain, who is usually kind and kind, do such a thing? What does it mean to be an accomplice? Brothers are also involved in this matter. My father is still in his prime. Although he has had a premonition that he will talk about this matter, there is no need to do it now. Just decide

The middle-aged people looked at Xiuzi who was lost in thought, and then he said something cold: "I think that little Xiuzi is the most suitable successor. I don't know what my children think."

Even if he had any objections, he would no longer have any objections. His father had probably already decided on the candidate.

However, the atmosphere was resolved with one sentence. Xiuzi slapped the table and shouted: "Are you kidding me? I have no interest in choosing the successor. Father, I'd better choose another brother. But you can still live for more than 10 years. Is it necessary to decide now?”

Everyone in the hall heard it, and the middle-aged man was not angry. He said to Xiuzi peacefully: "It seems that Xiao Xiuzi has a lot of opinions about me as a father. But my children, although I usually treat you It’s very harsh, but it’s all for the sake of your future, so I have no regrets.”

Afterwards, two princes took the initiative to admit their mistake and were escorted out of the palace. Xiuzi watched all these things happen. Behind him, Unaen and Warren kept trying to persuade him not to get too excited, but he finally drew his sword "Baihua" and pointed it at his father not far away.

"Father, if you can defeat me, I will try to be the heir you mentioned. If you lose, you will allow me to leave this country. I have long wanted to say this. My father taught me swordsmanship when I was a child. My father, your swordsmanship must have not deteriorated."

"I really miss those days, but Xiao Xiuzi, I agree to your proposal, but your opponent is Bell, no problem, right?"

"No problem at all." After Bell received the order, he was preparing to compete with Prince Shuze in the passage next to him...

After a while, Xiuzi fell to the ground with unwillingness. Unaen and Warren watched nervously throughout the whole process. After the battle, they slowly lifted up the unconscious Xiuzi. Warren picked up the sword that fell on the ground, and together they supported Xiuzi and slowly exited the palace.

"My children, although Xiao Xiuzi lost, we still put the selection of successor on hold for the time being."

The middle-aged man looked around, moved his arms and said: "The king is fine now. As for the crown prince's matter, I will propose it in five years. Don't discuss it anymore in the future. Please step aside."

After the show ended, only Bell was left in the hall. The middle-aged man opened a secret compartment in the hall, and a small passage appeared in front of the two of them. He walked in, and Bell followed...

After walking through several side streets in the dim passage, the two stopped in front of a door. After Bell stepped forward and knocked on the door and said a few words, the door slowly opened.

A young man was lying there, looking at the two people in front of him with a lazy expression, yawning and saying: "It's so boring. I thought it was a good show. Our King Gepu really knows how to act."

"Why do you just want to see how my children are doing? Some of them are pretty good, but little Xiuzi is too shameful. But I'm curious if you can see what's going on in the palace without going up."

"Secret, this is just a little trick, but Xiuzi is still too weak now. Do you really trust him to go to sea?"

"He has been complaining all day that my father is too strict with him. This time I will follow his wishes. But I can't guarantee that he will leave the royal city privately with you as planned."

"Don't worry, but are the ships and people I want ready?"

"The ship was completed a few days ago. Although the material is not the legendary Adam wood, it is the best material currently available in my country. The ship has docked at the port you designated, so you can rest assured. sailing"

"As for the crew you want, Xiao Miqi, I have already told her to stay on the ship. She has long wanted to go to sea, and she was very happy to hear that it will take a long time to go to sea this time. As for Unaen and Warren, as long as Xiuzi If I go, the two of them will leave together."

"So that's it, but Your Majesty King, I made a perfect deal this time. Can you give me some more Baileys?"

"Of course, Bell, I have prepared 10 beli for this young man, as well as the food prepared on the ship, which will be enough for you to eat for a long time, just think of it as a reward."

"They just asked you to do it"

"Goodbye then, Your Majesty the King, I will withdraw first."

The purple-haired boy disappeared into the house. Every time Bell saw him suddenly appear and disappear, he was always surprised and wondered what kind of ability this was...

I returned to the hotel, put away two books, and checked out of the room with a sack of Bailey. I gave the female front desk clerk the extra days' money as a tip.

That night, after I walked to the port, I saw Mickey looking at every part of the ship in surprise. After she saw me stepping onto the boat, she was surprised by my appearance.

"I thought His Majesty the King was talking about a surprise, but it turns out you are here. I didn't expect you to get on this boat too."

"I've looked at every part of the ship, and it's very good. The materials on the ship are also very strong."

But at this time, three figures slowly appeared not far away, and one of them shouted: "Gray, why do you keep disappearing? Now you are leaving, why don't you take me with you?"

"I heard from Mickey's maid that Mickey was here, so I came here with Unaen and Warren. Don't worry, we ran away secretly and we brought all our luggage."

"Oh, aren't Xiuzi worried that your father can't find you?"

"What are you afraid of? I've long wanted to go out on an adventure. Then I'll get on the ship first. Let's talk first. I'm the captain."

"Uh... whatever you want"

After all three people got on the boat, the boat sailed slowly. However, there was movement in the warehouse filled with food bags inside the ship, and a small figure crawled out...
