Rain

The young man stretched out his hand and scratched the bridge of my nose with an affectionate gesture: "My dear, you should call me when you encounter such a thing, you understand?"

I stretched out my hand to cover my sore nose, almost crying, and hummed vaguely.He looks like he's helping me out, but who knows

What is the purpose?I didn't want to leave the dragon pond and enter the tiger's lair... Feeling his hand still resting on my shoulder, I was instantly horrified.He can infect people through scratches as a vehicle to make them puppets, right?

"You are..." Ke Ku's face was as cold as I had ever seen before, and his eyes became sharp and condensed, "Puppeteer, Himmler von Goeled. Bounty, 4500 million Baileys , regardless of life or death."

"Since you know me..." The young man still had a provocative smile on his face, and his light purple eyes glowed under the blurred light, "Then why don't you get out of my girlfriend's place?"

Noticing the attracted gazes of the people around me, and watching the navy men standing up not far away, I felt overwhelmed instantly.

The coldness around Ke Ku's body intensified, and even his eyes became colder than I had ever seen before, and his right hand began to be covered with layers of white frost: "Scum, you must be eliminated."

I vaguely saw several slender silver wires attached to Keku's fingertips, stretching to the crowd in the bar.His lips were pressed against my ear, and Si Mo was rubbing his eyes, but his eyes were looking at Ke Ku, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and smiled wildly: "You can try."

There was a burst of lightning and thunder.Actually, what I want to say the most right now is, big brother, I’ll go out first, you guys take your time...

It is estimated that Ke Ku could see that the aura between me and Mr. Puppet was not in harmony, because he frowned and his face was so cold that he would freeze to death: "It has nothing to do with her, let her go."

"Pfft~" The puppet boy laughed out loud as if he heard something funny.He grabbed my shoulder even tighter, lowered his voice, and said in an ambiguous tone, "That's not okay. She is someone who is very important to me..."

The frost around Keku's body had already spread to the floor, creaking and stretching towards us, but was stopped by himself.

In my life, I never thought that one day I would encounter such a bloody drama where two men compete for one woman, let alone that I would be that philanderer standing in the middle... I rubbed the space between my brows to calm myself down.

"Don't..." At this moment of tension, I started to be a qualified girl with a heart, my voice was aggrieved, soft, my eyes were misty, and my expression was contradictory and painful, "Oh—don't fight for me..."

I saw the corner of the puppet boy's mouth twitch slightly, and the face of Keku Bingshan on the opposite side seemed to have disintegrated to a certain extent.

I turned my head to look at the puppet boy with tears in my eyes, and boldly put my hands around his neck, with a sweet voice: "My dear~ let's go together, um~" The puppet boy's psychological endurance is not very good, and I Shiba Wan's tone of voice was so frightened that his hands loosened reflexively.And I also seized this gap and got out of his arms.

"Rain..." came a familiar voice, with a little helplessness.I looked up and saw Eric whose eyes were twitching, looking at me with disillusioned eyes as if he had been struck by lightning.

Cough cough, image subversion really can't be too big, can it...

Eric walked up to me, ignoring the two opposing males, with a bright smile: "Let's go back."

Is this the so-called killing a third party halfway...

"Don't touch her!" Accompanied by these cold words, the sky was covered with silver frost.However, Eric raised his hand as expected, and the frost melted into nothing with the roiling heat wave.

"You haven't changed, Keku." Eric looked at Keku with complicated eyes, full of emotion and a hint of...subtle relief?The smile on the corner of Eric's mouth was bright, and he talked about the past as if no one else was there, "Is the general okay?"

"You don't deserve to mention him." Ke Ku's expression was cold, and the chill around his body became more intense, full of hostility, "Scum."

"I haven't seen you for so long, you have learned to swear." Eric rubbed his chin and muttered, "I don't know if this counts as progress..."

"Um, to interrupt you..." I looked at Eric with a strange expression, "Don't you know that I have already quit?"

"Rain, pirates have their own rules." Eric looked down at me with rare solemnity and seriousness, "The crew cannot disembark without the captain's permission."

I have been on this ship for so long, and I have never heard such a sentence.Judging from the faces of Ke Ku and the puppet boy, this matter is probably true.

The cold air around Ke Ku froze for a moment, looking at me, a trace of disbelief flashed in his black pupils.He pursed his lips, and just looked at me fixedly: "Are you... a member of the Spade Pirates?" I know, he thought of the similarity between the wanted list and me.At this moment, I don't know how abnormal this question is to Ke Ku, who has always been unselfish.He really held the idea that if I answered no, he would ignore the facts and believe me.

I smiled at Keku, and just said this: "I am Rain." I will not deny my name, because that is the only proof of my existence.I blinked so I missed the momentary glint of sadness in Kirku's eyes.

The next moment, a silver light flashed, I held the dagger, and reflexively cut off a silver thread that was tense in front of my cheek, and heard the familiar sound of the thread cracking again.

I don't know if it's an illusion or what, the corners of the delicate-looking boy's mouth turned up slightly, and he said something: "Sure enough..."

The hoarfrost that covered the sky instantly rushed towards the young man like an angry beast, but a few people with numb expressions suddenly rushed towards Ke Ku in the crowd, and he had to withdraw his hand to defend and throw them away. All freeze in place in the form of frost.

I am sorry to describe the chaotic battle situation as incompetent and extremely fierce.

Eric protected me and stepped aside so as not to be affected, looked at me and smiled: "Let's go, let's go back."

"I've already quit." I looked at Eric with an extremely serious tone, "I took the initiative and I've already thought about it."

"Fool, in this case..." Eric sighed, and patted my head, "Why do you have the expression of crying?"

At this time, I realized that my brows were tightly frowned, and there was sadness in my eyes that I didn't realize.

There was a bang, and it was accompanied by the ultimate silence.

The battle is over.

It's just that what ended this increasingly raging battle was neither the sky covered with silver threads nor the ground covered with frost, but the monstrous orange flames.Ace stood at the entrance with a calm face, and no emotional fluctuations could be seen in his black eyes.Standing idly behind him was Nelo, who was still expressionless, wearing a white coat, smiling elegantly, Wally who pushed up his glasses, and Ren, who was abnormally energetic.

"Fire Fist Ace." Keku didn't restrain the cold and frost around him, his eyes were cold, "Spades Pirates."

Ace raised his right hand, let the flames simmer, and looked directly at Keku with hot, black eyes: "We are here to pick up important companions."

"Hey, Captain." Eric suddenly said, smiling distressedly, "Rain is here, but she is still insisting."

Then Ace extinguished the flame in his hand and did something that no one could think of.

"Rain, I'm sorry!" Ace's voice was so loud that everyone around could hear it, and everyone could hear it clearly.This proud man, like a flame-like young man, bowed deeply to me in front of everyone, maintaining that posture, "I was wrong before, please forgive me."

I was startled, so I ran over quickly and asked him to stand up again: "What are you doing! Get up quickly!" I felt as uncomfortable as if some flesh and blood had been gouged out, but I just thought that this guy who advocated freedom was not As it should be.

Ace bowed seriously like this, lowered his head, and I couldn't help it no matter what: "Please forgive me."

"I forgive you!" I quickly answered him, and the anger I still had before disappeared, "I forgive you! Get up!"

"Thank you." Ace straightened up and looked at me with a smile in his eyes, "Then let's go back together."

Ah, to be forced into submission... I was suddenly aware of this fact.

"The chili sauce you made is delicious." Ren walked past me with a serious tone, "Come on."

"If you leave, those idiots without common sense will starve to death. Then I have to cook." Wally smiled grimly, his flat glasses reflected the light, and passed me by, his tone was flat, "You dare?"

"Rough noodles with fish balls." Nilo also walked over calmly, and only said a few short words, but everything was kept silent...

I turned around, and these guys lined up in front of me, facing the navy.

"As you can see, this idiot belongs to our Spades Pirates." Ace turned his back to me, his voice was extremely firm, and the orange flame in his hand was burning, "We will take her away."

The frost on Ke Ku's hands gradually dissipated, but his expression remained solemn: "Let's go."

Originally prepared for a fierce battle, I held the dagger in my hand and was stunned: "Huh?"

"Just this once." Ke Ku looked indifferent, standing upright, with his hands hanging by his sides, "I will arrest you personally."

"You too." Keku looked at Eric, who was also standing in a row with Ace and the others, his eyes were frosty, full of murderous intent, "I will wipe you out."

"Well, if it can be done..." Eric's voice was still relaxed, as casual as usual, but mixed with some things I don't understand, "Welcome anytime."

"Hehe, let's go back." Unexpectedly, the puppet boy raised his eyebrows slightly, the corners of his mouth curled up, with a playful smile, and his violet eyes were as clear as jade, "Together." He walked naturally Ace in front.

I looked at the delicate-looking boy, and couldn't figure out what he was thinking for a while.But I can be sure that he acquiesced in getting out of his arms like a joke before, otherwise, he would not have suffered any injuries at such a close distance.

"Wait." Ke Ku looked cold, and the chill around his body became more intense, "When did the puppet master join the Spades Pirates?"

"This has nothing to do with you..." The thin line on the young man's fingertips fluctuated slightly, and the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened, "What does it have to do with it?"

"Go back." Ace said calmly, looking at the puppeteer, "Let's go together."

After returning to the ship, this is undoubtedly the best news.

"Captain, it was the right decision to bring Rain back..." Wein grimaced, pointing at a boy with trembling fingers, "Why did you bring him back too..."

Wein stood on the boat and saw us coming back with a very happy expression on his face. When he saw a certain boy, his face changed several times, which was really good-looking.It's worth mentioning that at first it was a suspicious blushing, ahem...even though it turned pale and white after realizing that it was a male and an enemy from a previous battle...

"Portgas D. Ace." The boy looked at Ace with a smile and raised his eyebrows slightly, "May I join the Spades Pirates?"

"Pfft——" This is the sound of me spouting while drinking tea.I wiped my mouth, looked up, and found that everyone was looking at me, and waved their hands: "Leave me alone, you continue."

This guy, wasn't he an enemy before...how come so quickly...

"Tell me," Ace didn't refuse directly, but looked at the boy seriously, "Why did you join?"

The young man was silent for a while, and then he smiled and replied: "I just think you are very interesting here." I had the urge to rush to the street, but it was Ace's answer that made me complain more.

The captain of the boat patted his hand on the boy's shoulder, smiling brightly, showing his neat white teeth: "Welcome to join."

So surprised, I began to silently prepare the dishes for the welcome banquet tonight.

Am I stupid or is this world just too crazy?Sister can't keep up with the rhythm...

That evening, we sailed out of port with a sumptuous welcome feast, with an emphasis on roast meat.

It is worth mentioning that the puppet boy, who now introduces himself as Himmler, has not touched any food.In his words, it is: "I don't need to eat."

I swear, I saw the interested gleam in Wally's eyes, the silver light in his hand.Hope he doesn't take a chance after a well thought out plan this guy dissected...

But a certain boy was not easy, because from the second day on, he and the ship doctor were inseparable, and seemed to be best friends.Especially when he imitated Wally's elegant smile, the same calmness and maliciousness made people feel creepy.

One black-bellied person on this boat is enough, there is no need for a second one!

In view of the heart-piercing pain of losing the house when we first met, I avoided him openly and secretly.In fact, it's very obvious for me to avoid him... You think, if he stood next to me and showed signs of speaking, I would throw things at me and run away.Once, the thing at hand was an ink bottle with the cap unscrewed... As a result, it doesn't matter if I don't talk about it.

During the voyage, everyone is on the same boat most of the time, and we will notice many things consciously or unconsciously.

For example, when this guy is bored, he will use that transparent thread to sit aside and play with the rope.

For example, he would see Shan being provoked by Wein, who was afraid of chaos in the world, and occasionally he would become angry with a knife full of boats chasing our snipers.

hand.At this time, the expression on his face can be said to be a kind of almost innocent curiosity, without any impurities.

For example, he is not a very talkative person, and occasionally he would seem a little uncomfortable to sit down and talk with everyone.

For example, although he is a puppet master, he doesn't know how to tie a sailor's knot. He learned from Eric seriously, just like me back then, and he learned quickly.

For example, when he stood quietly watching the undulating sea, his eyes would be cold and lonely.

So after a month, I took the initiative to speak: "Although I said you don't need to eat, but if there is anything you want to eat, you can actually tell me."

He smiled softly, and spoke to me. There was no surprise in his violet eyes, and there was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth: "Thank you for your concern, but I don't eat."

Uh, don't know what to say...so don't say anything.Um.
