Set sail, bastards!

On the square, the king's army and the rebel army launched a war together.The king's army, dressed in neat military armor, struggled to contain the rebel army who wanted to break through the gate of the castle.And it was less than 5 minutes before the bomb exploded, and everyone spread out to look for it.

I remember, on that big clock tower.I can see it from my current perspective.

I wanted to catch up with Weiwei and tell them where they were, but I couldn't get out of the crowd in the square.

"Yeah!" There was a roar from behind, and I jumped a step to the side in fright.Only then did I realize that it was a soldier of the king's army in armor who was slashing at me with a big knife.

"Why kill me! I'm not a rebel!" I have no grudge against you!"Ah" your sister for no reason!If you don't cut me down, you will be scared to death, okay?

The soldier didn't hesitate, and swiped his knife for the second time: "The rebel army! I advise you to surrender as soon as possible!"

I yelled while hiding: "Listen to what they say, Qi Kexiu!"

"Ah—" There was another roar from behind, I twitched the corners of my mouth, got up and jumped to a slightly more open place.

This time it was a man dressed as a rebel army, holding a broken knife similar to a 5 Bailey in a profiteer's face shop: "The king's army! Give up resistance!"

Hey, so why do I look like King Jun!I'm not even wearing armor!

Attacked from both sides, I had to draw out the knife.Changed the direction and used the back and handle of the knife.

Obviously there is no time, and it must take 2 minutes to get to the clock tower from here!Where is so much time wasted.

"You really are the king's army/rebel army! You finally took out your weapon!" The two said in an unusually tacit understanding, which made me think that the two of them were in the same group.

I held the handles of the two knives with both hands, and stabbed them both in the stomach: "I'm really just a passer-by, brother!"

Just when I thought these two troubles were finally resolved, I discovered in horror that a group of king's army and rebel army surrounded me...

"..." I turned my head tremblingly, swallowed my saliva, put away my knife and ran wildly: "Help!"

The group of people behind me followed me persistently...

……

Well, it seems that they didn't follow... I put my hands on my knees and hid in the alley, panting.Walk out of the alley and look at the surrounding environment...

Ah, ah?Where is this... It seems that there is no one there, so quiet.And... the bell tower with the bomb... why is it getting farther and farther away, bastard!Qi Kexiu...just jump on the roof and run, otherwise he doesn't know where to go.

"Boom!" A violent explosion erupted in the air ahead.The smoky air was clearly visible from the roof.

"Crack." A drop of water-like liquid dripped on my face.I was stunned, and stretched out my index finger to wipe it, and it was a drop of clear water.

I looked up at the sky, dark and gloomy clouds densely covered the entire sky.Then, the patter of light rain fell on me.

The bomb... exploded...

"Tch." I bit my inner lip and accelerated my speed toward the bell tower.

……

The cheers of the people in the square intertwined with the sound of raindrops falling, dispelling the hatred, and the war stopped.

Weiwei went to explain the truth to everyone, and the Straw Hat gang lay down in the open space with big characters in relief.Except me.

The imperial doctor in the palace said that each of them was seriously injured and had to rest for at least one day.Except me.

Looking at their tired sleeping faces, I clenched my hands tightly into fists, and my nails pierced deeply into the flesh without feeling any pain.

I am a superfluous person, what is the reason for my existence here?

……

It has been three days since Luffy woke up, but we had to set sail again immediately. The navy chasing and killing us only increased, and even surrounded all the seaports.Fortunately, Mr. 2 helped to tow the Mei Li to a safe location, and the Mei Li escaped the naval search.

Faced with leaving or staying, Weiwei is in a dilemma because she can't let go of both sides.

"Weiwei, we'll give you twelve hours to consider. Tomorrow at noon, the Meili can stay in the harbor for a moment, and only for a moment." Nami took the chart and accurately calculated the time.

The navy is about to arrive at the harbor where the Meili is staying, and we must rush to the destination without delay.

Today is Weiwei's speech conference for the people of the whole country as a princess.When we arrived at Mei Li, Mr.2 was already waiting for us on his own boat.

"Get on board, everyone~ The navy is coming soon." mr.2 quickly greeted us to get on board, while organizing the crew on board.

"But Weiwei..." Lu Fei stood on tiptoe and kept looking towards the shore.

Nami looked at the heading and said, "Start first, there are still 5 minutes..."

[In the past two years, I have gone out for an adventure.It was a journey across the sea of ​​darkness to find hope from "despair".The ocean outside Alabasta is indeed vast, and there is an archipelago with incredible vitality.The food that I have never seen before, the dreamlike scenery, sometimes gentle and peaceful, as if calming the myriad of thoughts in my heart; sometimes impassioned, as if to tear my will and laugh at my heart timid.In that dark and raging storm, I was rescued by a small boat.The little boat kept cheering me on, saying, "Can't you see that light?"]

Vivi's voice spread into the air through the phone bug.

[That incredible boat, even in the dark, will not lose its way, as if jumping over the wind and waves.The bow of the boat was still going straight forward, and it would not turn around when encountering strong winds. Then, pointing to the front, she said to me: "Look, there is light." Although this legend will be classified as nonsense, to me, that But it is extremely real. 】

"It's Weiwei!" Lu Fei shouted excitedly, pointing at the slender figure on the bank.

At this moment, Weiwei and Kalu were standing on the shore, and the salty sea breeze blew her soft blue hair loose.Dressed in a noble and elegant dress, is waving to us.

"Let the boat sail to the shore!" Nami commanded.Seeing Weiwei's arrival, everyone couldn't help raising the corners of their mouths.

But Weiwei put down her waving arms and picked up the phone bug beside her.

【Then, everyone, I'm here...to say goodbye to everyone...Sorry, I can't go with you, I really thank you all before!Although I also want to take risks, but I really can't give up!Because I love my country so much!So, I can't go with you!I...I decided to stay here...]

"What... what!" Lu Fei's raised smile gradually stopped, and his eyes widened in disbelief.

"Luffy! The navy is catching up!"

Several warships marked with the navy logo slowly approached on the sea behind the Mei Li, and even the shells were loaded and aimed at eruption at any time.

Weiwei's tears had already dripped on the skirt of her clothes, and she couldn't cry.

[But... if there is a chance to meet again someday, are you still willing to call me... partner? 】

"Of course—" Before Luffy could finish speaking, Nami stopped him.

"The navy is behind! We are pirates! This will hurt Vivi!" Nami quickly covered Luffy's mouth, but she didn't know that she was already crying heavily.

Don't we still have... the logo that symbolizes our partners! ! !

The white bandage was removed, and the "X" mark on the arm was clearly visible.

Everyone didn't speak anymore, there was only low sobbing in the silent air, and we raised our left arms.

【Weiwei, we will always be partners! 】

For the sake of the country, Weiwei did not board the Meili.With the help of Mr.2, he escaped the pursuit of the navy smoothly.The sea has returned to its former calm.

But there was another commotion on the deck.

"Eh?!" Usopp was the first to discover Nicole Robin who was reading a book leisurely on a beach chair, and shouted: "She, she, why is she here! Yes, she is here for revenge, Is it!"

Robin still smiled gracefully, ignoring the weapons held by all the staff, and said to Luffy: "You haven't forgotten what you did to me, have you?"

"Oh Luffy! What did you do to this beautiful sister!" Sanji immediately bounced.

Seeing Luffy's dumbfounded look, Robin continued: "You saved me who wanted to die, now I have nowhere to go, so just let me stay here."

"Ah, that's it. There's no other way, okay." Luffy nodded as a matter of course.

This move made everyone boil.Usopp timidly hid behind the mast with a small horn and broadcast: "Dangerous people, please get off the boat blablabla..."

Nami stood up like a queen: "If you do anything to harm us, I will be the first to kick you off the boat!"

"I'll keep it in mind." Robin didn't care about this kind of provocation either: "Speaking of... I brought some Crocodile gems..."

Nami's eyes immediately turned into Bailey's: "Yeah~ sister~ I like you the most~"

On the side, Luffy grew two hands on his head to imitate Chopper, and instantly captured the two innocent guys Usopp and Chopper.

The calm Sauron was not so easy to please, he went straight to the stern to sleep alone.

It's rare for me not to be attached to Sauron, hiding in the study alone and reading a book.It is said to be reading, but in fact I have been reading this page for almost an hour.

"Xiaoyin, are you okay? You have been depressed since you left Alabasta. Are you sick?" Nami, who was seriously drawing the chart, put down her pen.

"...It's okay, my aunt is here." I shook my head.

"That's it." Nami stretched her waist comfortably, and blinked at me: "Finally the painting is finished, it's almost time for dinner, and Xiaoyin will come out soon~"

"Yeah." I stood up and caught a glimpse of a sentence stained by lead on the book.

——If one day you disappeared, who would care?

At the dinner table, Luffy was still playing tricks. Sanji offered a unique dinner to the lady while beating up Luffy who was stealing.I ate without saying a word, but I happened to meet Sauron's eyes on the opposite side.

He frowned, as if searching for something.I quickly pretended not to see and continued to lower my head and eat in silence.

Today, I was in charge of the gazebo. After a hasty meal, I climbed to the gazebo and stared at the night-shrouded sea through the glass in a daze.

"Squeak—" The door was opened, and a green algae head walked in.

Seeing that I was staying inside, a slight surprise flashed in my eyes, and then I said lightly, "You are guarding the boat today."

"Yeah." I turned my gaze to the sea again.

Sauron didn't say much, and turned around to leave.

"Zoro." But I stopped him softly, and the question that I already knew the answer popped out of my mouth: "Even if only a little bit, have you ever... liked me a little bit?"

His back trembled slightly, but he still didn't turn around.

"No," he said.

Seeing his back disappearing from his sight, a salty sea breeze poured in from the half-open window, chilling his heart.

Even if you already know the answer, you don't want to let that last hope survive.

Facing the transparent window glass, I smiled.

Is there any meaning for me like this?

Exit the straw hat chapter.
