Pirate: Nami! Give me back my Berry!.

"Don't hide, come here!" Ling Yan stood there, his eyes firm and gentle, shouting to S Snake who was hiding in the shadows not far away.

Hearing Ling Yan's shout, S Snake first uttered a short exclamation: "Ah?" Then, as if realizing that Ling Yan was really calling her over, her voice became stammering: "My concubine... My concubine... Oh..."

At this time, S Snake's heart was like a deer beating wildly, and she was frightened by Ling Yan's sudden shout and was at a loss.

Her originally cute little face instantly blushed like a ripe apple, spreading all the way to her ears.

However,

Although she was extremely shy, she finally plucked up the courage, lowered her head slightly, bit her lips lightly, and walked towards Ling Yan step by step with light steps like dancing.

"Ling... Lord Ling Yan..." When S Snake finally came to Ling Yan, she never dared to raise her head to look at him, but just lowered her head and called shyly in a voice as thin as a mosquito.

At the same time, her white and tender hands tightly pinched the hem of her skirt because of excessive tension, as if this could slightly relieve the panic in her heart.

Ling Yan quietly looked at S Snake in front of him, with a subtle appreciation in his eyes.

It must be said that

S Snake was really cute at this moment, and this cuteness was completely different from Hancock's charming and charming beauty. Instead, it was as fresh and refined as a flower blooming in spring, and it was lovable.

Ling Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and after a moment of thoughtful silence, he finally slowly opened his mouth and whispered to S Snake: "Do you want to be free?... Well... I'm talking about the real freedom!"

His voice seemed to carry a mysterious magic, echoing in this silent space.

"Ah?"

S Snake was shocked when she heard this, and her eyes, which had been drooping, suddenly widened.

"Freedom?" S Snake murmured to herself, as if trying to understand this strange and tempting word.

Then,

She quickly raised her head, and her flushed little cheeks were unreservedly displayed in front of Ling Yan.

There was a trace of confusion in her eyes, as if she was at a loss for words about this sudden question.

Indeed,

Since S Snake was created, she has been trapped on this isolated island called Egghead Island and has never left this small world.

It was not until Ling Yan accidentally broke into this place that, under the influence of Hancock, she began to gradually reveal those complex emotions that originally belonged only to humans.

However, she was too unfamiliar with the concept of "freedom".

What does it mean?

Is it to be able to go anywhere as you please?

Or is it to no longer be bound or restricted by anything?

S Snake pondered, but could not find a definite answer.

She did not understand,

why Ling Yan suddenly asked her such a puzzling question, and she did not know whether she should desire this so-called "real freedom".

Ling Yan stared at the innocent S Snake in front of him, who was as innocent as a child, and could not help but feel an indescribable sense of guilt.

At that moment, he even felt as if he had become an unforgivable person.

"It's so abominable!" Ling Yan cursed secretly in his heart.

Just as he was falling into self-condemnation, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed through his mind.

However,

The next moment,

The S-shaped snake slightly raised its head, looked at Ling Yan shyly, and whispered:

"Ling... Lord Ling Yan, can I... can I stay by your side?

I feel... I feel extremely comfortable by your side, that kind of warm and secure feeling, I like this feeling very much..."

After saying that,

she quickly lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong, and her already pink little face was now flushed, all the way to the roots behind her ears.

She felt her heart was beating at double the speed, and she felt that she was too courageous just now to ask such a question.

At this moment,

she was shy and nervous, and a little scared. She was nervous and afraid that Ling Yan would reject her.

Witnessing this scene, Ling Yan was completely sure that the S-shaped snake at this moment was like a piece of flawless white rice paper, pure and innocent.

The reason why she had such special feelings for him was simply because of Hancock's influence.

Now, she was still very ignorant about emotions, just like a naive child.Maybe it's not just S Snake, the other Seraphim are probably the same.

They only know how to mechanically execute orders, and other than that, they have never had complex emotions that belong to humans.

And S Snake is only special to him, and other aspects are the same as other Seraphim.

Ling Yan frowned slightly, as if he was experiencing a fierce struggle in his heart.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally lowered his voice and whispered to the other party with a slightly doubtful and uncertain tone: "Do you... really want to stay by my side?"

At this moment, S Snake, who had been quietly lowering her head, suddenly raised her head as if she was suddenly struck by a thunderbolt.

Her charming eyes were now filled with disbelief, as if everything happening in front of her was just an illusory dream.

However,

This astonishment did not last too long. Almost in the next second, S Snake's beautiful face was quickly occupied by an indescribable huge surprise.

She opened her eyes wide, and her cherry mouth opened slightly because of extreme excitement. She looked like a flower in full bloom.

S Snake nodded without hesitation, and her movements were so fast that people even felt a little hurried.

As she nodded, she kept saying:

"Yes! I want to stay by Lord Ling Yan's side!"

While speaking,

S Snake's eyes were always fixed on Ling Yan, never leaving for a moment, as if she was afraid that the person in front of her would disappear if she blinked.

"Okay... I can let you stay by my side, but... you have to be obedient in the future, understand?" Ling Yan said to S Snake softly, just like coaxing a child.

"I... I know, I will definitely listen to Lord Ling Yan in the future!" S Snake was very excited to hear that Ling Yan agreed.

Ling Yan nodded slightly, with a warm smile on his face.

He stretched out his hand and said softly:

"Let's go, I'll take you to find Vegapunk and ask him to take out the authoritarian chip in your body..."

Snake was very happy, she raised her little hand and placed it on Ling Yan's hand.

"Authoritative chip? What is that?"

...
