Time flies.

Shanks, Bucky, and Arka have been pirates for more than three months, and they quickly get acquainted with the people on board.

During this time of drifting at sea, they accepted the guidance of Reilly's predecessors, and rushed up in all aspects, except for Alka.

This is Reilly's acquiescence.

A person who can skillfully control the murderous spirit does not need to learn this.

↑ is Reilly's exact words, and the second half of his sentence is: Whoever can do this will either roll a dozen laps on the battlefield or ......

Reilly took a drag on his cigarette and his sharp eyes swept over Alka, who was sitting cross-legged on Shanks' back.

Countless killings.

That's what Reilly didn't say, but the imps didn't need to know.

Shanks, who was doing push-ups, suddenly sank, almost causing him to fall to the ground.

"Go on."

Alka, who sat on someone else's back without saying a word, commanded lightly.

Since that night, Arka has maintained her paralyzed face, and although it is the same as usual, she has less communication with Shanks, which gives Shanks a headache and pulls out several hairs.

Shanks sweated from the corners of his forehead, and finally dripped onto the deck, and when he heard the sound coming from his back, he struggled to hook the corners of his mouth, and his eyes burst with fighting spirit.

"Yes!"

Shanks was full of fighting spirit, sitting up and down with Alka on his back, while Bucky on one side was a little lazy.

Arka raised his eyebrows, pulled out his knife, and slashed directly at Bucky's unstraightened leg, which was originally unprepared, and with such a hit, Bucky snapped and fell.

"Whew! It hurts! Alka, what are you doing? ”

Bucky got up from the ground, reached out and rubbed his beaten calf, bared his teeth, and shouted at Arka.

"The action is not up to standard."

And the answer given by Arka is this.

'Smack'

A tic-tac-toe burst out of Bucky's head, and even a clenched fist popped out.

"Go on."

Bucky's angry expression made Arka's mood slightly better, and she raised her eyebrows and said.

"Legs straight, down, elbows bent, if the movement is not up to standard, hehe."

Arka laughed meaningfully, and the knife in his hand shook casually twice.

Bucky turned his head into tears, this is definitely a threat threat threat.

However, he could only eat these two words silently.

One was sweating and rising and falling under the weight of the arka that was pressed against the deck, and the backs of his hands and arms were bursting with green tendons; The other is gritting his teeth and doing push-ups seriously under the supervision of Alka.

"Haha, those three imps are quite interesting."

The okay people leaned aside, looked at the trio, and said with a smile.

Stark patted his partner Anderson on the shoulder, raised an eyebrow, and said to him, "Now you can rest assured, right?" “

Anderson, who had been keeping an eye on Alka, closed his eyes, and after hearing Stark's words, he opened his eyes and looked at the girl who was sitting cross-legged on Shanks's back and hit Bucky from time to time, he closed his eyes again, put his hands around his chest, shrunk his neck, and said vaguely, "Look again." ”

He was still a little worried, compared to Shanks and Bucky, who were already familiar with the ship, he was still a little worried about the Arka who didn't care much about people.

Except for someone else taking care of her, he really didn't see her taking care of anyone other than Shanks and Bucky.

You can't do that.

"Well~ Then you're taking a look, anyway, I think that girl is good, but she's a little shy haha."

Stark patted Anderson on the shoulder indifferently.

On this boat, some of them recognized the three imps like Stark, and some of them looked at the most dangerous of the three, Arka, with the mentality of Anderson, with the mentality of observing again.

However, since they are on the boat, it means that they are all their own people.

Just like Anderson did, look again.

"Captain - see a new island!!"

The people on the lookout shouted towards the deck.

New islands, new adventures, new beginnings.

"Where? Where is it? When Roger, who had been unable to sit still, heard the news, he immediately ran out, jumped and squatted on the railing, like a monkey, raised his hand above his eyelids, looked around, and finally stopped in one place.

A looming green island.

"Hahaha I saw it! The little ones—"

"Full speed ahead—"

Roger stood up, one hand crossed over his waist and the other pointing straight at the island, an adventurous urgency in his eyes.

"Huh? Are you going to dock? When Bucky, who was already tired and out of breath, heard this, the strength in his arm slackened, snapped, and fell on the deck.

"Well, another new island."

Arka stood up from Shanks's back, and Roger's loud voice couldn't be hidden, and his voice was heard from afar.

"We're coming to the shore."

Arka said that she looked at Shanks, who was soaked in clothes, turning over, lying on the deck with a large face, and still sweating on his face, a little tired, but not mentally enough.

"It's a new adventure again, I'm looking forward to it."

"That's right, maybe there's a treasure!"

One is looking forward to new adventures, the other is looking forward to golden treasures.

But in the end, it's risky, so it doesn't make a difference in essence.

Arka looked at Shanks, then at Bucky.

Strange feeling, she said quietly: "Hurry up, change your clothes, we will get off the boat later." ”

"It's okay, I'll do it in a while."

"That's it."

Shanks refuses, and Bucky is troubled.

"Oh?" Arka curled the corners of his mouth, smiled and took the knife, the tip of which tapped the deck with a few clicks, and asked, "What did you just say?" I didn't hear you. ”

Bucky, who was the first to give in, was most afraid of Alka's smiling threat.

"I—I'll go!!"

He was the first to run away, and those who didn't know thought there was a monster behind him.

In Bucky's eyes, it's no worse.

And the most daring was Shanks, who got up, grabbed the corner of his clothes, fanned it, and said, "It's troublesome, and it will be ...... in a while."

'Brush'

The cold scabbard was pressed against Shanks's face, and a few strands of red hair slowly fell to the ground.

"......" Shanks was stunned for a moment, and then rows of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Arka looked at the ossified Shanks with a smile on his face, and asked in a soft voice: "Say it again, um~"

"I, I, I'm going to change !!!"

Arka stood in the distance and watched Shanks running away, until he disappeared, and withdrew the threatening knife in his hand.

I don't know when, there was a shadow on his side.

Arka had known that someone was approaching, but she didn't say anything.

The man who approached was the ship's doctor, Kurokas, who stood at Alka's side, watched Shanks wolf Bèi run away, and said, "What a twist, Arka." ”

"What are you talking about? Flower old man. Arka couldn't remember the names of all the people on the boat, so he simply called them their characteristics, and the ship's doctor in front of him was because his hair was tied like a flower, so the old man came like this.

"It's rude." Kurokas, who was called the old man, was not angry, he looked down at Alka, who had not grown a little taller in three months, compared to the other two imps, but he had grown a lot taller, he said: "Forcing those two imps to change their clothes, isn't it just that they are worried that they will catch a cold again?" ”

On the previous occasion, after they finished training, they collapsed on the bed the next day like two leper dogs because they didn't change their wet clothes in time.

While Kurokas was treating them, Arka was right next to him, and it is said that Kurokas was still pulled by Arka.

The result of the subsequent diagnosis and treatment was: wearing wet clothes, the sea breeze was blowing for another day, and there was no way to catch a cold.

Kurokas remembered that morning when he was drinking with the group, and then the door was pushed open with a bang, and all eyes looked at him, and it was the little hairy ghost who impressed him.

The corners of his mouth were pursed, his face was not very good, and with a sweep of his eyes, he was locked.

Then he was caught by the collar of the little hairy ghost, and went to Shanks and their room.

It's staggeringly fast.

The exposed Arka pursed the corners of her mouth, and she said seemingly reluctantly: "That looks so ugly, I'm just a little disgusted." ”

Arka's words seemed to Kurokas's ears like a disguised acknowledgment.

A twisted little ghost, just that incident, made him feel that the little hairy ghost was a little more murderous, but that's it haha.

"Haha, whatever you want!" Kurokas laughed and reached out and patted Arka's head.

“…… Kill you. Alka, who was under the pressure of the slap, grimaced and squeezed a few words out of his mouth.

"What nonsense, we're companions." Kurokas didn't have the idea of retracting, because the imp had just twisted a little, and he rubbed it a few times when he left.

“……”

When Shanks and the others changed their clothes and came back, they saw Arka with a cold face and a hairstyle that was no different from a chicken coop.

"Poof-ha!! Arka, your head-" When Bucky saw this, he was the first to hold back, clutching his stomach and laughing, but the consequence of his laughter was that he had a big bag on his head and bent down to say sorry to Arka with tears in his eyes.

Shanks broke out in a cold sweat, patted his chest inwardly, and exhaled, but fortunately, he didn't laugh out loud, although he wanted to laugh too.

"Arka, ahem, I'll sort it out for you."

Shanks coughed, and without the girl's consent, he reached out and brushed his hair like a chicken coop.

When his fingers ran his fingers down the millet hair, what Shanks thought to himself was: Alka's hair is so soft and comfortable~

Despite this, he was very careful to arrange the hair of the girl who was shorter than him.

Arka's eyebrows twisted slightly as Shanks reached out to touch her hair, but quickly let go.

How could one or two do this, without her consent, one ruffled her hair, the other straightened her hair, but the former was more hateful.

The balance in Arka's heart unconsciously favored Shanks.

She didn't notice it.
