[One Piece] Brother Ace, please pay the bill

~~~~~The more beautiful things, the more poisonous~~~~~

"Wow, Ace, you actually built a tree house!" Without any scruples about wearing a skirt, Mandala grabbed the tree and climbed up.

"Hey, why did you come here? Didn't Dadan ask you to drink?" Espen thought that he had thrown off Mandala, but he didn't expect that she would follow him to his secret base.

"The siren has passed first, Dadan said, let me follow you first, so as not to cause trouble again." Mandala kicked on the bark, and fell onto a thick trunk in a few strokes.

This tree trunk is the base of the tree house, stepping on two steps carved out of the tree, you can enter the exclusive space of Ace and Luffy.

"When did Dadan care about me so much!" Ace frowned, obviously not believing Mandala's words.He stood at the door of the tree house, preventing Mandala from entering.

"Dadan has always cared about you, Ace, don't just look at people on the surface." Thinking of Dadan's almost fighting with Garp after Ace's death, Mandala felt heartbroken.

Now that Ace is still in the rebellious period of youth, he must not think about other things in his mind except going to sea.Perhaps during the days of advancing to the city, Ace thought of his childhood in Windmill Village, and his heart was still very warm.

"You and Dadan just said a few words, can you see through her heart?" Ace smiled mockingly, he turned around and walked into the tree house.

"A good person can't pretend to be bad." Mandala smiled and followed Ace.

This huge tree looks a bit like a banyan tree, and the branches hanging down from the trunk have issued countless new shoots.Only when a tree becomes a forest can Ace build a fairly spacious tree house on its trunk.

Walking into the "living room", Mandala realized that there were quite a lot of messy things piled up in it.Of course, there are also many valuable things in it.

A complete set of silver tableware, headdresses inlaid with various gemstones, white jade sculptures, various coins...

It's just that Ace didn't seem to care about the value of these things themselves, and just threw them on the ground casually, letting the dust fall on those dazzling treasures, covering their own light.

"Where's Luffy?" Mandala glanced around the room, but didn't see Ace's little tail——Luffy.

"Sleeping on it." Ace sat down on a tattered sofa. He didn't occupy the middle seat, but sat on the right side a little stiffly.It seemed to be signaling Mandala to sit beside him.

"So there's still a second floor." Mandala raised his head, only to find that there was an unobvious attic entrance above his head.Because they were all dug out directly on the tree trunk, if Ace didn't remind her, she wouldn't notice it at all.

Ignoring Ace's hint, Mandala walked around the room, counting it as a visit.She stopped at the edge of a tree hole that had been dug into a circle and used as a window.

"My stupid brother, he has to look at the sea to sleep." Although Ace said so, there was still a smile on his face.I remember when he just built this tree house, Luffy was so excited that he couldn't close his eyes at all.He has been lying on the attic, looking at the sea in the distance.

"Ace, do you remember what I said about sending you a boat?" Mandala turned his head and looked out the window.At this height, you really can't see the sea, only a little sunlight reflected from the water surface can be seen from between the branches and leaves.

"Why did you send me the boat?" Ace moved his butt uncomfortably, he straightened his back, so that Mandala standing behind him could see that his back was very straight.

"Because I like you." Mandala didn't hide her feelings, and she couldn't find a more suitable and convincing reason than this.

When he was still a manga character, he was already very fond of it.Now, he was sitting in front of him alive, how could he just watch without confessing.

"Ahem..." Ace choked on Mandala's words before he could catch his breath.How could he expect her to be so direct, she wouldn't even find an excuse.

"What, did it scare you?" Mandala walked to the back of the sofa, she put her hands on the backrest, tilted her head, and looked at Ace's face that was red with saliva.

"Cough cough cough..." Ace still didn't speak, his journey was an endless sea.Now he was scared to death by a little girl's confession, how could he mess around if this kind of thing got out!

"I know, you are going to sea soon. If you want to have your own pirate group, at least you must have a boat first. Otherwise, with just two fists, who will mess with you. In this world, people like Luffy Idiots, but very few." Mandala said worriedly, she didn't know how Ace established the Spade Pirates in the first place, she just wanted to save Ace from suffering.This is the only thing I can do for him at this stage.

"Then I can't accept your boat either, I'm a man." Ace finally regained his composure, shaking his head with a firm attitude.

"It's not my boat, it's the boat I gave you." Mandala corrected, her head tilted even more, and it was almost bent at 90 degrees, "I know you are a man, a woman sent you Isn't it a natural thing to give a gift to a man you like!"

"Cough cough cough..." Hearing Mandala's words, Ace choked on his saliva again.

It's only natural for a woman to give a man a gift?

Ace has never heard of such a matter of course.Of course, no one taught him how to behave in the most polite way when being confessed by a girl.

"Whether you accept it or not is up to you. Anyway, I will definitely deliver the boat to you the day before you go to sea." Mandala felt a sore neck at this moment, and she simply lay down on the back of the sofa , very close to Ace's head.

Ace's mind was in a mess, and he had never encountered such troubles before.In the past, I was only worried about being defeated, how to fight back, and how to become stronger.But now he encountered this kind of sweet and sticky distress, and he was completely helpless.

"Brother?" Luffy called out, breaking this rather embarrassing situation in a timely manner.He climbed down from the attic on the second floor and walked slowly to Ace.

Ace jumped up and almost hugged Lu Fei and kissed him fiercely, "Luffy, are you hungry, let's go to Dadan's for dinner!"

"Brother, you haven't woken up yet? How could Dadan give us food!" Lu Fei rubbed his eyes and didn't notice Mandala who was leaning on the sofa.

"In exchange for wine, she will definitely give me something to eat." Ace stretched out his hand and took out a bottle of green wine directly from the pile of treasures.Does he know Dadan's hobbies, as long as there is alcohol, everything is not a problem.

"I happen to be hungry too." Mandala rubbed her stomach. It's been almost four hours since I came here from Central Street, and she still hasn't had a drop of water.

"Miss Seafood Fried Rice, are you there too?" Luffy saw Mandala at this moment, he smiled and greeted her.

"My name is not Seafood Fried Rice, my name is Mandala!"

"Luffy, don't be so rude. Call Miss Mandala."

Mandala and Ace almost shouted together, with a synchronization rate of 90%.

"Ah, what are you two talking about? I only heard Mandala clearly." When Luffy was hungry, various organs would lose their functions.Even the elasticity of his rubber will be greatly reduced.

"Just call me Mandala, Luffy."

"Luffy, Miss Mandala."

Mandala and Ace almost said it together again, and this time, the synchronization rate between the two reached 99%.

"Huh? What's wrong with Luffy?" Luffy wasn't just pretending to be stupid, he was really stupid!

"Let's go eat."

"Let's go eat."

100%, achieved!

=================================================================== ==========================

Walking into Dadan's tavern, Mandala almost burst into tears from the strong aroma of wine.With her body in this world, she can't drink very well.This one has not been tested yet.

"I want to eat meat!" Luffy placed the bottle of wine in his arms in front of Dadan who was standing next to the wine cabinet.

"You two brats, you actually hid such a good thing!" Dadan's eyes turned green when he saw the bottle of emerald green wine.

"What kind of wine is this?" Mandala runs a restaurant anyway, and seeing Dadan's expression, she suddenly became interested.

"Absinthe." Dadan looked at Mandala with a smile, and there was a hint of temptation hidden in that smile, "This kind of wine has a light herbal taste, and it's refreshing with a little mint. Clean and moist."

"Really?" Mandala felt that Dadan was better at sales than herself, she licked her lips, and wanted to drink a little.

Coming to the world of pirates, Mandala still has some nostalgia for the real world.Computer, Internet, mobile phone.Drinks and snacks of various tastes.New season clothes, shoes, bags.New show, old show, new show...

"Come on, this cup is my treat." Dadan took out a small glass and filled it up for Mandala.

"Thank you." Now that Dadan has said so, Mandala can't refuse, otherwise it would be too impolite.She picked up the cup, raised her head, and drank it all in one gulp.

Mandala, who was deceived by the lovely color and Dadan's description, actually just suffocated a glass of absinthe, which is as high as 50 degrees, and can even be used as a hallucinogen and an anesthetic.

"Hahaha, as expected of a woman who can hold down Ace!" Dadan laughed heartily, she patted the table, tears were about to come out.
