In pursuit of red hair, I become the strongest in the world

After a day of sparring and another swimming competition, it was already night when the two returned to Charui.

The pirates are still having a banquet to celebrate the New Year.

According to estimates, the banquet will last for ten days.

The pirates in the new world are physically strong, drinking and eating meat for ten days and ten nights is not a problem at all.

As the person whose culinary skills in Charui is second only to the head chef Maria, Lin Li also undertook (robbed) a lot of tasks during this banquet—although Maria actually prefers that her boss should be idle. (Lin Li: One vote rejected).

"Um... delicious..."

Lagi's eyes lit up, and the meat that ordinary people could eat in an hour was finished by him in just a few seconds.

"One more piece, Lin Li!"

Lin Li, who gave full play to her culinary skills to win the favor of the red-haired crowd, waved her hand over a pile of barbecue grills at a speed that ordinary people could hardly see clearly, and handed one after another just-to-be-grilled meat to the people who were waiting for food.

"Why has Boss' cooking skills improved so much..."

While eating, Maria looked at Lin Li with resentment.

He always felt that his current progress was far behind his own captain.

After this time, relying on her understanding of Lin Li, Maria felt that her level would definitely be surpassed.

"If the old man were you, you would have given up a long time ago."

Erming took a sip of wine followed by a sip of meat, and his whole body exuded the smell of lazy (salty) loose (fish).

"That's all he pursues, let him struggle one last time."

South shrugged and drank and ate meat like Ermingli, but after taking a sip of wine, he smacked his lips, regretting that he was not in the tavern now, there were no young ladies, and he was surrounded by old men.

what?

You said their captain is not a woman?

Heh, the rich woman at the airport (crossed out) has already been expelled from Pirate World, okay?

Morris and Beckman have a good relationship. At this time, the two of them smoked comfortably with cigars in their mouths, and occasionally talked a few words about the management of their own pirates that did not involve confidentiality.

The red-haired cadres sat crookedly, enjoying the comfortable sea breeze, drinking the special wine made by Cha Rui, and eating the barbecue made by the four emperors.

Only the redhead himself was missing.

As for where he went after he came back, Lin Li didn't know too well, but after seeing him come back, a red-haired pirate came over nervously and said a few words. Shanks walked away with a vaguely heavy expression.

That's why Lin Li barbecued here—mainly because she had nothing to do, so she came to win the favor of the red-haired people.

It wasn't until late at night, when the task of roasting meat was taken over by Charui's other recruited chefs for a while, that Lin Li was so bored that she was about to go back to sleep, only then did she see Shanks come back from outside with a slightly wet body.

The red-haired head is lowered, and just by looking at it, one can feel that he is not in a high mood (Lin Li's perspective).

Lin Li's joy at seeing someone come back quickly disappeared, and various conjectures came to mind, and her face unconsciously darkened with certain conjectures.

——Could it be that someone with power and blindness attacked the red-haired territory?

——Or something happened to the Celestial Dragon, involving Shanks?

——Or did something happen to Luffy?

……

Shanks glanced up and walked towards Lin Li's corner.

Lin Li was stunned for a moment, then immediately collected her emotions, poured a glass of wine, and handed it to Shanks who came over.

Red-haired took it, sat next to Lin Li, raised his head and drank all the wine in one breath.

Shanks didn't speak, but continued to pour a glass of wine, and drank it down again.

Lin Li didn't know what to say, so she just drank with the red hair.

There was a moment of silence between the two.

"Lin Li."

After Shanks drank an unknown number of cups, he finally spoke, his tone full of drunkenness.

Lin Li stopped what he was doing and looked at the red hair.

"You said you have someone you like."

Shanks looked at Lin Li with a serious expression on his face.

Lin Li was almost blushed by this sudden sentence. Fortunately, she was very experienced and controlled herself in time. She looked at Shanks with question marks on her face, not quite understanding why he suddenly mentioned this. She felt that she should There is nothing to reveal.

"I also fell in love with someone recently."

Shanks said in a low voice.

Lin Li was stunned.

For a moment, she felt as if she didn't exist anymore.

There was a dense pain in the heart, and the distance between the person in front of her and her seemed to be infinitely farther away, and she could no longer touch it.

——Since... since he has someone he likes, I... I should let go... that's right...

Lin Li was so immersed in grief and pain that she could hardly perceive the outside world.

……

"Hahaha, I'll trouble you then, Lin Li!"

Lin Li, who recovered from her shock, only heard Shanks say such a sentence.

She tried to adjust her expression, but found that it took all her strength to keep her face expressionless. In the end, she just forced her tone to be puzzled and asked,

"What's the trouble?"

Shanks froze,

"Hey, didn't you just agree to help me practice skills?"

Lin Li didn't know why she needed to practice skills.

"What technology?"

"Kiss skills!"

Shanks said carelessly, as if he didn't feel anything wrong at all.

!

Lin Li's entire face blushed uncontrollably, stammering,

"Kiss...kissing skills?!"

"Yup!"

Shanks nodded, and explained to Lin Li, who hadn't heard clearly before,

"The person I like likes to have a good kiss, so I have to practice it in advance."

At the end, the redhead asked Lin Li solemnly,

"I'll leave this to you, Lin Li!"

Lin Li was dizzy from being hit by Shanks' move, but she seemed a little dazed when she was in a sober state, and she could only say meaningless words like "ah".

After a while of response, he squeezed out a sentence,

"Why are you looking for me?"

Although Lin Li thinks that if Shanks finds someone else, she can secretly kill that person.

Why is it someone else, not Shanks?

Nonsense, someone illegally took advantage of Shanks, Lin Li can bear it!

How to explain the current situation.

Lin Li: She is here to help as a good friend, and she has absolutely no other intentions.

Seeing that Lin Li still didn't understand, Shanks continued to talk nonsense seriously,

"Because Lin Li, you have no experience, I want to find someone who is inexperienced, and practice how to make her go from inexperienced to experienced."

Lin Li nodded blankly.

It really makes sense.

The red-haired cadres (except Lackey) who had already pricked up their ears to eavesdrop in the distance couldn't bear to look directly.

PS: The script was dedicated by Snake.

It is said that all the red-haired people (except Shanks) who have seen it think that the success rate will not be higher than [-]%, but they did not expect that two zeros were missing in the actual result.

Beckman: Lin Li, you should download an anti-fraud app.

"You went out because..."

Before Lin Li finished speaking, Shanks picked it up.

"I had someone collect some information about her before, and I just confirmed something."

Having said that, Shanks scratched the red hair in distress,

"Of course, if you don't want Lin Li, I can try with someone else."

Lin Li immediately shook her head, only to realize that she was acting too eagerly, so she dryly made amends,

"They're all men, so why bother?"

Shanks held back his smile, his voice was serious,

"But didn't you say that the person you like is also a man, wouldn't that be too good?"

Lin Li was choked up, and after thinking anxiously for a while, she came up with an "explanation".

"It's okay, he doesn't mind."

Now it was Shanks' turn to choke.

Someone inexplicably feels that their hair is green...

Ah bah bah, they are all alone, how can there be any forgiveness.

"That's good."

In the end, Shanks could only dryly agree with this sentence.

——Actually, the condition he raised before was prepared for this time, but he didn't expect it to be completely useless, and someone fell for it.

After "negotiating", the two fell silent again.

Lin Li suddenly felt a little hot from the sea breeze blowing this time.

"Go to your room?"

The red-haired voice was a little hoarse.

Lin Li nodded stiffly.

The two threw down the empty wine jars they drank a lot, and walked towards Lin Li's room on the Aubrey.

……

The closer Lin Li got to the room, the slower she walked.

It's not that she regrets it, she won't regret it even if Shanks regrets it.

It's just... well, I'm cowardly.

Obviously just helping Shanks practice kissing skills, but they need to go to her room, and the two closed the door.

I always feel something is not right.

Although it would be even more wrong to do so directly in public.

If you really do this, maybe you wake up the next day, and the sky is full of newsbirds distributing newspapers-"Shocked! The two four emperors did such a thing in full view!".

Hiss, this kind of consequence is terrible just thinking about it.

Lin Li stood in front of the door, hesitated, and didn't go in.

"Should I be here?"

The redhead "thoughtful" offers.

Lin Li shook her head violently.

Just kidding, it can be covered to some extent in the room, but if it is really outside, most of the people on the boat can feel it.

"If you regret it..."

Shanks hesitated to speak.

Provoked by this, Lin Li immediately took a step forward and entered the room with a "calm" tone,

"It's okay, isn't it just practicing skills?"

"As a friend, I have the obligation to help you with this favor!"

Shanks followed into the room and closed the door.

"Then trouble you."

……

The inside of the room was dark because the door was closed.

It was late at night, and the only source of light was the windows embedded in the walls.

The soft moonlight penetrated down, bringing a ray of light in the darkness.

The vision of the two people in the room was not affected, and they could clearly see each other's appearance.

"Lin Li, is it starting?"

"Ah."

"Open your mouth."

"relax."

"Follow me."

"Tongue. Use your head like this."

"You still have a lot of water."

"Comfortable?"

"……Um."

"You're a slow learner."

"I'm sorry..."

"It's okay, let's do it again."

"You study hard."

"it is good."
