One Piece Redemption

...I can't...I can't, empty...

"... Kong!!" The red-haired man suddenly opened his eyes, waking up from the nightmare. With a sound of "snap!", a wine bottle beside him was driven by his skirt and fell to the ground, making a "gurgling" turning sound.

Shanks couldn't help gasping for his head throbbing from time to time due to hangovers. He stretched out one hand to support the wall on one side, trying to stand up, and the other hand held himself down. His temples, he frowned tightly, forcing himself to take a deep breath to calm down his mood.

When he was sure that he had fully recovered all his emotions, it was already a few minutes later, he raised his head and looked at the surrounding environment blankly: Why did he fall asleep in the corridor of the hotel?He looked around subconsciously, and when he saw twenty or thirty rum bottles standing or falling under his feet, he instantly recalled what happened yesterday and the dream he had last night.

...that worst dream ever.

Shanks sighed, and closed his eyes: ...I actually drank so much last night... No wonder even I was drunk...

The man looked at the tightly closed door beside him. Inside the door was the culprit who sent him back last night eagerly, and let him drink away his worries for most of the night.The man couldn't help but sighed again: "...It's really terrible..." He stretched out his hand with a tired expression, covering his face, trying to wake himself up: "...Forget it Let’s call Sora up first..." Then he let go of his hand and wanted to knock on the closed door, and then his eyes shifted to the hand that knocked on the door: "...?"

...Did you wear this coat yesterday?No, speaking of which, didn't Sora hold this coat? !How could it suddenly appear on me? !Could it be... Kong, woke up? !

The man's body froze, and he looked to the upper right of the door: he hastily hung the queen's black umbrella there last night, but at this time the umbrella was gone!His heart panicked, and he quickly raised his hand to knock on the door: "Kong, Kong! Are you inside?"

But unfortunately, no one responded to him.

The uneasiness intensified, and Shanks used some strength to push the door open: ...no one was there.

Hope was shattered at this moment, and his heart tightened: ...Where did Kong go...Could it be...she, left...

Shanks could hardly imagine the scene when Sora left him. The sad and helpless eyes of the girl in the dream came to his mind again. The girl gave up the beauty of the outside world and her favorite flower. Now , Do you want to give up on him... Shanks froze in place.

"Boss, what are you doing here? Are you empty? It's time to go down to have lunch together." Mr. Cole's characteristic lazy voice mixed with a smile sounded in Shanks' ear, Shanks woke up.

Shanks turned around abruptly, fixed his eyes on Mr. Cole who was taken aback by his actions, and treated his crew with such an anxious attitude for the second time: "Where is Kong?! Where did Kong go?!" "Empty? I don't know!" Mr. Cole was taken aback for a while, and said blankly: "Besides, didn't you just find it yesterday?"

...Wait...could it be...

An ominous premonition emerges from Mr. Cole's heart: ...No way, is it gone again? !It's not good, the boss is already in a state of anxiety, so I have to tell Beckman quickly!

"Damn it!" Shanks cursed in a low voice, and ran out of the hotel with big strides. Mr. Cole was afraid that something would happen to this stupid captain who was reckless, and was planning to follow when he heard Shanks A sentence came from all the way: "Notify brothers, be sure to find the space!" I was about to step out of the hotel's legs, and gave the captain's order to the brothers who were eating happily in the hotel: "Fuck, (*｀へ*), stop eating, empty It's gone! Copy things and find someone!!"

"Nani?!" "Kora disappeared?! When did it happen?!" "Damn it, will Kong be okay?! She's still so young...in case something happens...!" was eating The pirates all panicked, hurriedly picked up the weapons and equipment they put on the table, and ran out of the hotel with Mr. Cole. Every time they reached a place, they loudly asked the people around about Sora's whereabouts: " Hey, have you seen a girl who is only twelve or thirteen years old, silver-haired and purple-eyed, very beautiful, and very imposing?!" When the pirates, who were not like good people, were arguing loudly, their facial expressions were quite ferocious. , In the middle, countless pedestrians were frightened. The most ridiculous thing is that some people were reported to the police by children during the questioning process, and they were kicked out of many streets by the police... (=_=)lIb

Let's put aside the teasing over there first, let's talk about the anxious Shanks here.

Shanks was running wildly on the street at this time, and from time to time he caught a passerby and asked about Kong's whereabouts. After asking many people, he caught a middle-aged man who was a little drunk and asked very anxiously: " Hey, Uncle, have you ever seen a girl who is about twelve or thirteen years old, very pretty, with silver hair, purple eyes, and maybe holding a black umbrella?"

"Ah, that cute but flustered little guy!" The middle-aged man showed a loving smile, and said with some nostalgia: "Because she is so cute, I couldn't help but take a few more glances. She looks very much like me. As for my daughters, they are both about the same age... I miss you so much... I haven't seen you for several years, I don't know if they will recognize me as a father."

"!" Shanks' eyes lit up, and he didn't care about being polite, he grabbed the man by the collar, and the gangster's aura of being a pirate burst out instantly: "Where did that girl go? Say it quickly! Otherwise, I’ll kill you!!” “?!” The uncle was dumbfounded, and stammered, “…she, she, went, went in that direction, and went straight into the forest!” said the uncle’s finger Turning in one direction, Shanks followed the uncle's hand, looked at the lush forest on the right rear, released the uncle, and dropped a bill of [-] Baileys by the way: "Help! Thanks, thank you!" Before he finished speaking, he hurriedly ran in that direction and into the forest.

The man was stunned for a long time, touched the back of his head, showed a look of dumbfounding, and said to himself: "...the young people of today are really impatient..." Then he picked up the banknote from the ground , smiled and planned to buy wine again.The uncle was walking unsteadily on the road, and suddenly his eyes moved, and he looked up at the sky: "Could it be his girlfriend? The two of them had a fight? Hahaha, well, don't worry, I have to buy wine!"

The uncle staggered away, and a gust of wind brought him softly muttering to himself: "...well, it's time to see my daughter."

Shanks had already left that uncle behind, and rushed straight into the forest, shouting Sora's name loudly: "Sora, Sora! Where are you?! Come out, Sora! Go back with me!" Flying up in shock, Shanks used his knowledge and arrogance, and began to search for the familiar figure in a wide range.Shanks searched aimlessly for about ten minutes, when a black light beam suddenly fell from the sky and flew forward.Shanks' heart skipped a beat, the beast-like intuition he possessed had saved him countless times during his long adventures, this time he also chose to trust his intuition, and headed towards the direction where the beam of light fell , sprint away.There were branches blocking him from time to time along the way, but he ignored them and rushed over.

Sora...don't worry...as long as you're okay...sora...no matter what it is, I will promise you... sora...

It's so cold... Concubine... So cold... Who is here, help me... The Queen's face was pale, her whole body was tightly wrapped by the black light that fell from the sky, bursts of icy breath leaked out from the beam of light, until It touched the Queen's body directly, and it was extremely cold.

"...Empty?" Shanks saw it when he arrived, a scene he will never forget in his life: a black halo enveloped the petite queen, and that black halo ejected cold white mist from time to time , Even if it was more than ten meters away, Shanks could feel the coldness of the air-conditioning, not to mention the queen who was directly surrounded by the air-conditioning.

"! Empty!" Shanks ran over as fast as he could, hugged the queen who was lying on the ground covered in blood and dust, and hugged the queen in her arms. The moment he hugged the queen in his arms disappeared, as if he had been waiting for Shanks to arrive.Shanks heard the queen in his arms, whispering in an extremely weak voice: "...so cold... Shanks... my concubine..."

"..." Shanks hugged the queen tightly, the cold body temperature made his heart ache, the softness and distress in his eyes no longer concealed, he asked softly the queen who was still restless even in a coma , as if his voice was a little louder and the girl who was as fragile as crystal would shatter: "Is it still cold, Kong?" Leaning in his arms softly, no longer trembling.

The black light gradually disappeared, and the queen's long silver hair gradually grew, as if the time that had been stagnant in her arms had finally begun to move, and people could clearly see her changes: her waist became softer, and her pair of The legs that were originally slender because of their proportions also began to elongate gradually. The small dress couldn't cover up the leaked spring light at all. The skin was still fair but not pale anymore. Instead, it showed a jade-like appearance. Glossy, the originally small and green face has gradually matured here, delicate pink lips, small nose, slightly weak melon-shaped face, bangs on the forehead half cover the smooth forehead, the one with The bright ruby ​​pendant condensed by the true ancestor's painstaking efforts is hidden between the white bumps, which makes Shanks' heart a little hotter.The straight silver long hair has two big wavy curls at the end, which adds a bit of charm that women can only have after they mature.

...It's really grown up... ●━●chest...something...

As soon as a certain silly red-haired nose got hot, bright red blood dripped from the tip of the nose.The familiar smell of blood made the queen unconsciously open her eyes: "...blood..."

The blood loss just now made the queen urgently need supplements.

So a certain red hair with the function of a blood bag was "patronized" again...

...I lost a lot of blood this time, maybe I should ask Cole to prepare some blood replenishing things for me after I go back...Red Mao remembered the blood loss from the wrist bitten by himself last night and today's nosebleed while being beaten The blood-sucking situation, I thought silently...it won't work if it goes on like this...it will end sooner or later. (-_-)lIb

"...But having said that, they have really grown up a lot, that's why those eyes are still..." Shanks touched his nose, coughed dryly, those cat-like eyes, eyelashes It is long and upturned, and the corners of the eyes are also raised upwards, as if wearing eyeliner, adding a bit of coquettishness and childishness: "... What a fairy..." When I was not grown up, it made people scratch my heart like that The lungs, when they grow up, are even more...

...It's broken... Shanks covered his face speechlessly:...not only Sora, but now I have grown into a bad adult, my mind is full of yellow waste...

"...Ah, why did I grow up all of a sudden..." Shanks sighed helplessly, took off the cloak he had been wearing all the time, and wrapped it around the queen, who could have wrapped the previous queen around The ankle cloak is only enough to wrap around the calf at this time.The man reluctantly picked up the Queen by the waist, took out the phone bug from his pocket, and prepared to send a message to his brother: "Booooooohoo..." The phone bug, which had been sleeping when it was not in use on weekdays, fell asleep. At this moment, he woke up and made a strange sound, which indicated that he was on the phone.

"Hey, is it the boss? How is it? Did Kong find it?" The phone worm's expression suddenly became very quiet. At the same time, Beckman's voice came from the phone worm's squirming mouth. At the same time, It seems that there is still a sound of wind.

Although I have used it countless times, every time I see the phone bug's outstanding Yan Yi, I can't help but feel emotional...

"Well, I found it, but there was a small problem temporarily." Shanks glanced at the queen in his arms thoughtfully: "But don't worry, it's not a bad thing... Well... from a certain point of view Say, it's still pretty good... Wait, why did I suddenly think of this again?!...Ah, it's over, I really became a terrible adult..." Shanks was depressed again. (=_=)

"...? What?" For the first time, Beckman didn't know what was going on in his idiot captain's mind, and asked with some doubts.

"Oh, there is nothing, there is nothing..." Shanks rubbed his face, and said with a serious face: "Let the brothers don't have to look for it anymore, I have already found it, and then I will go to the previous one." Just gather at the hotel."

"Ah, speaking of which...it's a bit difficult..." Beckman seemed to be very embarrassed and said: "...Actually, we also have some problems here..."

"By the way, I wanted to ask just now, why is the wind so strong on your side?" Shanks asked a little puzzled.

"Because we have been collectively mobilized by the police in this small town, and we have been chased away for several streets, Boss!!!" The phone bug changed his expression violently, and Shanks looked at the panting snail face Some uncertainly said: "... Cole? Is it you? Are you panting like this?" "Yes!! I have already run for more than half of the town!!" Cole almost rolled his eyes: "My profession is a cook, a cook!!! Why should I run for my life with you fighters?!!!"

"Then why are you all being chased and killed by the police in this small town?!" Shanks couldn't help asking frantically. There are too many things happening recently. The captain who doesn't have enough capacity will go crazy!

"Isn't it because of Kate, Kuink, and Khaki (a few combat crew members whose names have never appeared.) How many of them?!" Mr. Cole roared angrily while panting, "Those idiots!! Obviously long It’s so scary, I ran over to question other children and still used such hideous and terrifying expressions, which scared the children so much that they called the police. The police wanted to arrest us. Of course we couldn’t go to prison just to find time, so we had to escape! !!"

"..." For the first time, Shanks didn't know what expression to use to face his several combat crew members.The red-haired captain, who has always been heartless, feels so tired today... the whole person is pale and weak... ORZ...

"...Well, that's the situation. Since we can't go back in the town, let's go back to the boat. Anyway, when we got out, the brothers took everything they should have, and nothing happened." The phone bug once again He changed his expression. Judging by this expression, it should be that Beckman took the phone bug back.

"... Then you can't sail the ship directly. There is a small problem on the empty side. I have to buy some supplies on the shore, not to mention the pointer (the great route is not only the climate, but the magnetic field is also very chaotic. You can't simply rely on the direction To distinguish the location, people have formulated two kinds of direction pointers, the eternal pointer and the direction pointer, to judge the direction and find the next island. Among them, the eternal pointer is a pointer that specifically points to an island. No matter when and where, the eternal pointer will always point to The direction of the island recorded before, and the other direction pointer is used to temporarily judge the heading direction, both of which are necessary tools for sailing on the great route.) There is no orientation yet, and there is no way to go to the next one Islands, wait a few more days." Shanks is the captain after all, and he is the one who has the most say on the course and other aspects, so he directly made a decision to decide the next action.

"Alright." Beckman nodded bluntly: "Then I will convey this news to my brothers." "Well, you guys run away, I'm going back to the ship with Kong now. (→_→)" The red hair hung up the phone bug without showing brotherly loyalty.

"...Wait... Shanks?!" Beckman couldn't believe his eyes!What about the captain who promised to go out of his way for his companions? !This is clearly to stab them twice in the ribs! ! !

"...Hehe, run away." Lu had seen through everything, and indifferently slapped away a bowl of dog food that appeared out of thin air: I won't eat this bowl!

……

The red-haired people finally understood the fact that the boss had betrayed them. Facing the setting sun, they shed tears while running, and a large group of policemen accompanied them and shed the sweat of their youth...

"Don't be sad, brothers." Beckman became the honorary captain of the red-haired pirates' Lone Wolf Army after having the title of deputy captain of the red-haired pirates and the most cunning man in the world...

Although he doesn't want this title at all (→_→).

"After I go back, I will definitely let the boss know what it means to regret!!!"

"Aww!!!" The lone wolf army howled very cooperatively...
