[comprehensive] red tide

Although he has already made up his mind to temporarily restrain his emotions, so as not to really alarm that person and make her escape from the net they have not yet fully arranged.

But... Although the idea is very good, it is still so difficult to actually implement it.

Aokiji repeatedly warned himself to be calm, and decided to join forces with his colleagues anyway. The peach blossom debts that that person provoked somehow, would be settled slowly after he succeeded.

At that time, he must make her understand how terrifying a man is, especially for a woman like her who can always attract other men inexplicably without realizing it, although he keeps saying to himself in his heart, after eating The tasteless meal, Aokiji still has no idea of ​​getting up and leaving.

On the desk is a pile of high-level documents waiting to be resolved, and there will be a meeting to attend later, a series of matters that need to be dealt with are backlogged at hand, but Aokiji feels unable to lift up, just wants to sit on a chair and stay for a while For a while, stay a little longer.

…………

Pushing away the empty dinner plate, he unconsciously played with the spoon in his hand, and Aokiji chatted with the yellow monkey beside him about random things, while casting his gaze at the entrance of the kitchen from time to time.

The man never appeared again after he entered the kitchen. Later, there were several waves of generals who were dining here, and those who were in charge of entertaining were also the original canteen staff. In his position, he presumably was waiting for the dinner that person prepared for the ghost spider.

"It's so slow——" the yellow ape, who didn't intend to leave at all like Aokiji, finished an unimportant topic, stared at the kitchen, and said with a half-smile, "It's really strange, last time I was at the ghost spider's house. , I don’t think it will take much time? Make a hangover tea.”

Qingzhi glanced at his colleagues around him, twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, and replied in a deep voice, "If you are in a hurry, you can go first, anyway, didn't you ask to send it to your office?"

"But I'm worried, let's deliver dinner first~" Looking back, Huang Yuan slowly rubbed his chin with his fingertips, "I have to make sure that what I want will not be delayed for any reason."

While speaking, Huang Yuan leaned his body, pulled the distance between the two closer, lowered his voice, and said in a strange tone, "Don't say you are not worried, Kuzan, the one who is waiting for her, but Not an easy man to get along with."

His eyes dimmed imperceptibly, and then he clicked his tongue. Aokiji turned his gaze away, and cast his gaze to the kitchen entrance again, just in time to see that person walking out slowly.

Carrying something in each hand, she took the vermilion suitcase in one hand and a small cloth bag in the other hand. After she walked out, she was heading in the direction of the ghost spider's adjutant Matthew.

"Oh~ It seems that we can go back together~" Huang Yuan suddenly laughed, and Shi Shiran got up, "It's really destined, isn't it? Kuzan, as soon as I mentioned it, she appeared~" After finishing speaking, Then he left the position and walked in the direction of Matthew.

…………

After staring at the back of his colleague who exudes a faint joyful atmosphere for a few seconds, Aokiji shifted his gaze a little and landed on that person.

Matthew also stood up, and his outstretched hand landed on the handle of the food box in her hand, as if he wanted to hold it for her, but she seemed a little panicked, her fingers refused to let go, and the two of them were in a stalemate.

When Huang Yuan stood near the two of them, Qingzhi got up, pushed away the chair, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and walked towards that side pretending to be careless.

"It's really not heavy, Mr. Matthew, I'll do it myself." Her voice sounded timid, and she carefully retracted the hand holding the handle of the food box while speaking, "Please don't be so polite."

He stood still quietly, trying his best to stare at her fascinatedly without being noticed; after a while, he heard the yellow ape at the side say with a smile, "Yeah—that's not polite ~ Miss Anna. "

"Serving a lady is a man's demeanor." While speaking, he stretched out his hand, ignoring the man's slightly stiff reaction, and covered her hand carrying the cloth bag with his palm, Huang Yuan then laughed, "Who can bear to let you do this A weak girl is carrying such a heavy food box, Ghost Spider's office is a little far away from here~"

The man shrank unconsciously as if he was being burned, and because of the imperceptible caress of the palm covering the back of his hand, his face turned a little pale in an instant.

"Yes, I'm sorry..." She glanced at Huang Yuan, the corners of her eyes were a little steamy, and she quickly lowered her face again, "I...I..." Her thin shoulders trembled slightly, and her wrists struggled to escape.

"Porusalino." Aokiji said in a hoarse voice to stop his colleagues, "It's time to get the hangover tea and go."

Staring deeply at the few bruises exposed from the cracks in the man's hair, lowering his eyelids to cover up the strange gaze that flashed away, Aokiji suddenly turned around and walked slowly.

…………

After walking more than ten meters, Qingzhi heard the footsteps of the yellow ape catching up behind him, paused, and started to walk again.

After a while, the two left the dining place and walked on the quiet green-shaded avenue, then Aokiji squinted at his colleagues who were walking side by side from the corner of his eyes, and snorted imperceptibly, "No matter what plan you make, at least wait until there is no one." While the crowd is waiting, Polusalino."

"Yeah—it's just an inexplicable displeasure." Huang Yuan replied in a manly voice, looking back with a little restless eagerness, "Don't you think Kuzan?"

Afterwards, raising the cloth bag in his hand to the level of his field of vision, Huang Yuan raised the corners of his mouth, and his lowered voice sounded like a sigh, "What a mistake, she should send it in person, only in this way can I have a chance to keep him Ya~"

Tsk, Aokiji frowned slightly, thought for a while, and then said, "It's really a mistake, go to Ghost Spider after the meeting later, if she's still there..."

After being silent for a few seconds, Huang Yuan put away all the foolishness around him, and then said with some uncertainty, "Kuzan, what do you think she wants to do, stay in Marineford at a time like this..."

"Probably because of that event a few days later, who knows~" Aokiji pursed her lips, subconsciously clenched her hands in her trouser pockets, "No matter what it is for, she won't get what she wants."

…………

After leaving the cafeteria, they spent some time on the way, and the two generals whispered some secrets that were not known to others while walking, and ended the conversation before arriving at the office building, and went back to their offices.

Halfway through the urgent work piled on the table, the adjutant knocked on the door and reminded him to go to a meeting.

After the lengthy pre-war meeting ended, he came back again and continued to face the dense pile of documents. After signing the last word, he closed the document and put it aside to be stacked with other processed ones. Then Aokiji shook his wrist, At the same time, he looked up at the clock hanging on the opposite wall, and found that it was almost ten o'clock in the evening.

"Ah la la~ I am so diligent, I am really touched~"

Aokiji smiled to himself, then put down his hands, got up and turned out from behind the desk. He was going to drink a glass of water by the sofa, but after thinking about it, he changed his route and walked slowly to the window.

Pushing open the closed window casement, a moment of cool night wind swept in with the surging tide. He quietly looked at the boundless dark curtain high in the sky, dotted with bleak stars.

After a while, Aokiji quietly released his domineering aura, and the color of knowledge and knowledge slowly covered the entire room, and spread out little by little.

The invisible aura expanded slowly, from his office, to the entire floor, to the entire building, to the entire Navy headquarters, and finally enveloped the island.

Closing his eyes, Aokiji focused on distinguishing everything within the range of perception, trying to find out the existence of that person from the countless noises pouring into his consciousness.

He heard so many voices, the sea tide rolling in from the far end, the wind whistling and whirling on the top of the waves, the loud chant of young soldiers, the dull rhythm of military boots stepping on the ground, the clank of soldiers waiting for the opportunity There was a soft sound, the rustling of the pages of the dossier.

He searched carefully, bit by bit stripping away voices that did not belong to the target in his mind, eager to catch her direction in the intricate maze-like whole.

…………

'what--'

The changed voice of that person pierced Aokiji's sea of ​​consciousness, followed by the crisp sound of something falling to the ground, as if it was porcelain or glass.

'how? 'The deep and hoarse voice belongs to Lieutenant General Ghost Spider.

"No, it's nothing...just..." she said nah, "I don't know what happened, my hand slipped." '

A few seconds later, the ghost spider said again, 'Don't worry about the broken cup, it's frizzy. ' After finishing speaking, there was a moment of silence, and then said in a hoarse voice again, 'Come here... I am here. '

She hesitated on the spot, her voice timid when she spoke, 'No, I'd better go back first. '

'I don't like repetition, so come here. At the same time as the ghost spider opened its mouth, its breath began to move, followed by the person staggering back in fright, and finally the two senses of existence merged.

"Don't be like this...Lord Lieutenant General..." Her voice trembled softly, "...let me go..."

'What do you think I want to do? The ghost spider's tone seemed very helpless, "I don't know what Matthew said, you..." He stopped suddenly in the middle of speaking, "Eh? '

…………

Abruptly refraining from knowledge, Aokiji opened his eyes. Just for a moment, the ghost spider sensed that someone was spying on him, so he couldn't continue, so he had to give up halfway.

With a cold snort, Aokiji closed the casement casually, looked at the gloomy and gloomy face reflected on the glass window, remained silent for a while, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Marineford has an unwritten rule, and all the generals have tacitly refrained from using knowledge and knowledge in the headquarters. At this moment, his behavior is a bit over the top...

Qingzhi smiled wryly, lowered his voice, and murmured, "Miss, look, I'm really crazy." For her, he didn't care about anything.

After finishing speaking, he pursed the corners of his lips, turned around stiffly, turned back to the original destination, fell heavily into the couch, raised his hand, slowly covered his eyes, and clutched the front of his chest with the other hand, as if doing so would It can relieve pain and save a heart that is about to burst.

The closed eyes cannot feel the light, and the sanity immersed in the darkness is faltering.

"Little Miss—" The title that belonged to her rolled repeatedly on the tip of her tongue, but she still couldn't say it out of her mouth in the end.

Aokiji opened his mouth and breathed with difficulty, as if something was accumulating in his chest, the dark blue pupils of the man were shaking in front of his eyes, so close but out of reach.

He is like a drowning person, and she is a life-saving straw. He tries to reach out his hand, but his fingertips often miss it.

She is a lover, he is an enemy.

He's a navy, she's a pirate.

He walked alone in the white darkness, but she fell into the abyss but never gave up hope.

There were so many things between him and her that there was hardly a glimmer of hope in sight.

However, only love is the only attachment that cannot be given up.

…………

His feelings for her are really evil, and Aokiji even thinks that perhaps the innocent civilians of O'Hara who were buried in the sea of ​​fire took revenge on them, the perpetrators, before she appeared in front of them.

It is the cruelest revenge in the world only if you can never get a response to your feelings.

He couldn't let go of her the first time he saw her, thinking about it for 20 years.

Loyal and upright like a flying squirrel, she has been stuck in a quagmire since she met at Huazhou on Chundao.

Lofty and disrespectful like a yellow ape, Muse and his party changed their usual indifferent style when they came back, and made repeated plans for her.

Whether it's being merciful in a dilemma, or willing to share with others, they have never lost their composure before, but now they made exceptions for her one by one.

Aokiji thought to herself, if these stories were spread, many people would be laughed out of their teeth; what's even more tragic was that their infatuation meant nothing to her.

That person... I'm afraid he won't really fall in love with any man again.

Her admiration and deep love are all given to the black-haired king.

She is also from the sea, so Aokiji understands very well that she, like them, has very little love in her relationship. Once she falls in love, her life will not change.

At Wish Island, no, or rather at the Gardenas Island bar, the moment she hid her murderous intentions for a blasphemous statement about the dead, Aokiji vaguely sensed her feelings.

Originally, he should have restrained himself, but his rationality told him to give up, but actually doing it was the opposite.

It was he who allowed his emotions to overwhelm his rationality, and made half his life persevere, even trying to make mistakes again and again because of that delusional idea. What's more frightening is that until now, for that person, he is willing to join hands with his colleagues and has no regrets.

His mind was always clear, but he went crazy for her.

…………

After meeting again, before he was even able to control himself, he thought about killing her several times to restore his calm.

Qingzhi believes that if he is really determined, no matter how cunning and tyrannical that person is, he will not be able to escape his lore, but in the end, he will not be able to do it after all.

He couldn't kill her the first time, after that, Aokiji understood that from now on, he couldn't kill the person who made him crazy.

So, he had to tell himself that if he couldn't kill her, he would try his best to keep her.

He could have figured it out slowly, but unfortunately fate made a joke again.

In the battle that is about to start a few days later, Aokiji is not absolutely sure that he can survive even if he is one of the highest naval forces, facing the strongest pirate in the world.

On the one hand, the unpredictable future of life and death, on the other hand, the person who can make him crazy appears again within reach, and he is disturbed and pleasantly surprised.

Then, it was she who was inexplicably entangled with the admiral.

The three things twisted together became the last straw that crushed reason.

When his colleagues came to ask for it, he gave the Seven Waters Capital the hair that belonged to that person that he had stolen, and proposed a cooperation plan that even he thought was unbelievable, and joined hands with his colleagues to get that person.

The reason why Aokiji has such a crazy idea is that if he fails to survive the battlefield, that person...that person will be protected by his colleagues in the future, so that he can truly rest assured.

That person is now being coveted by various forces, no matter how tyrannical she is, she can't guarantee that she will be completely safe and smooth.

Aokiji couldn't let go, he was always worried about her.

When she wasn't by his side, he was afraid that she would be in danger. She was wandering and there was no news. He often dreamed of the scene where she twisted his wrist. After being awakened, he couldn't sleep all night.

In order not to make himself unable to rest in peace even in death, he had no choice but to make a bad move.

Aokiji believes that his colleagues probably think similarly.

If you can't kill her, you have to fall for her in this life.

If he wanted her to live, he had to do everything possible to protect her.

Even if he or one of his colleagues died in the battle a few days later, the one who survived could protect her.

He wants her to live, even if he cuts off her wings.

Even if she wouldn't accept it, even if their behavior was horrific and crazy.

Now, how could they watch her pass by?

Whether it's despicable or shameless, no matter what method is used, it will leave a mark in her life, love or hate, whatever.

He wanted to be someone for 20 years.

No matter what... he won't miss it this time.
