"Shirahhime ......"

The girl in the kimono, who had been ignored by Arka, lowered her head and suddenly pronounced those two words.

Arka, who was standing in front of him, heard this, and his pupils shrank suddenly.

The sharp, shallow knife swept towards the girl.

The girl was nimble in her way of avoiding it, she jumped away, took three or four steps back, raised her head, her green eyes were full of anger, and asked angrily, "Hey! What are you doing!!! ”

Arka suddenly made a move, causing the people around him to stop what they were doing, and their eyes turned away.

"Huh, huh? Arka ...... "Bucky was frightened by this sudden move, this girl has been on the ship for a month, and Arka has not shown any disgust in this month, but how can he make a good move this time?"

This is probably the confusion of the whole ship.

"Shut up!"

Arka shouted without replying, her gray-blue eyes appeared vigilant and murderous intent for a while, she swung her knife, pointed the tip of the scabbard at the girl, and asked sharply, "Who are you?!" How do you know about 'Shirahhime'? ”

Bai Ji, her nickname in the imaginary circle.

There was no one here who knew, and she didn't think that this person would inexplicably shout 'Hakuhime' at her.

"What! It's just a white hime! If I hadn't dodged quickly, I would have died! You've gone too far! Not to be outdone, the girl shouted, her hand hidden under the wide cuffs clenched quietly.

"Hmph, no kidding, I've been staring at you since you got on the boat!" Alka's gray-blue pupils stared at the girl coldly, she moved her lips, and said: "For a while, it is the breath of a human, and for a while it is the breath of the void, but no matter how it changes, I will not mistake the breath of my rival, a god of death with the breath of void on my body." ”

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, ?!!!!! of death"

Everyone present screamed.

Arka pursed the corners of her mouth, her fingers against the edge of the scabbard, a slight push, the white light slightly revealed, as long as there was something wrong with that little ghost, she would kill her with a knife.

“…… Poof, hahahaha-"

The girl burst out laughing, and the anger in her eyes vanished, replaced by a twisted madness, as well as the aura on her.

Is it virtual this time?

Arka grips the handle tightly.

"Ahh The girl raised her head, her originally green eyes turned dark gray, she stared at Alka, the corners of her mouth hooked, and she was almost grinning behind her ears, she stood up straight, lifted the slight bow of the original vigilance, she stretched out her hand, spread it out, and said, "Lord Shirahime, isn't this world very beautiful?" ”

Arka didn't reply, she stared at the girl the whole time.

"Ahhh~ Don't look at me like that." The girl suddenly shyly stretched out her hand to cover her face, and a small laugh came from the palm of her hand, and she murmured, "In this way, I can't help but want to possess you-"

"Ahh I want to possess you, I want to possess you, Lord Shirahime! Then eat everything you've had! She waved her hand suddenly, her wide cuffs fluttered, her eyes looked at Arka so wildly, she said excitedly: "I've always been looking at Lord Shirahime~ You are alone looking at the moon, killing your own kind, devouring loot alone, walking aimlessly, and then ...... You're in that damn white building! See you again - damn it!! The white is gone! Now you're just like a human!! Damn it!! Do you want to abandon your false identity and become a human being who is just our food?!!! ”

Arka listened to the words of the almost idiot, and finally turned something out of the garbage heap of memory.

"The guy who can only talk to me with the body of the god of death is not better than a human, right? Litter. ”

"Does Hakuhime-sama remember me? I'm so happy~ But Lord Shirahime said it wrong~ I'm now using the body of the Grim Reaper's Slashing Knife~" The little girl who was originally angry and almost distorted her face nervously ate and laughed again.

Ah, the essence is a disease, and it must be cured.

"Well~ It's useless to say too much, is Lord Shirahime coming to my side? After all, we are the same kind.,Human things are fickle.,Hakuhime-sama will always be hurt one day.,Body, mind, and all over the body~Hakuhime-sama, come on, come with me~"

The girl held out her hand towards Arka, and her crazy look disappeared as if it had never appeared.

Therefore, the essence is a disease, and it must be cured.

Arka sighed in his heart, and before he could say anything, a person stepped in and blocked Arka in front of him.

Her red hair fluttered slightly in the sea breeze.

"I didn't understand what you were saying, but! I understand that you want to snatch your companions away from us! This kind of thing - we will never agree to it!! ”

Shanks looked directly at the girl who was shorter than him without fear, and the look in his eyes was as bright and hot as his hair color.

'Click'

Arka heard the sound of a knife drawn.

So she turned her head and saw that everyone had drawn their weapons.

"Shanks is right, we're not going to watch our companions get snatched away, otherwise it's a hahaha, right? Brothers? Captain Roger stood on a high place, smiling smiling, his knife shining in the moonlight.

"That's right! Arka is the girl we put on, the girl who is more important than the treasure! I won't give it to a guy like you! ”

"That's it."

"Shut up! It's noisy!! ”

Arka suddenly shouted, she swept around the group with a cold face, under the moonlight, the gray-blue shimmered slightly, and she sighed helplessly: "What are you talking about, she is not a deity, and besides, I don't agree, idiot." ”

"Huh? Are you sure? That's great! Shanks listened, his serious expression collapsed, he grinned and scratched his head, and said, "Then I'll be relieved." ”

"Woo ......"

The small cry drew Arka's gaze, and when she saw it, a cold sweat ran down her forehead.

The girl was in tears.

And the tears that fell made a thunderclap sound when they touched the deck.

Her tears were so sour that they soured the deck several small holes.

"Not really! Lord Shirahhime is my woo woo wow, we are the same kind, what is so good about human beings!! Damn it!! In that case!! Lord Shirahhime! Let's fight!! ”

With tears in her eyes, the girl declared war on Arka.

“…… Don't you wipe your tears? Shanks asked.

"You have to take care of it! You hairy human!! The girl bared her teeth and yelled.

“…… Arka doesn't like people crying. Shanks was not intimidated and continued.

"Huh? Is it? Then I'll rub it. ”

"......" Arka looked back and forth at the two of them with a blank face.

Are you here to buy teas?

"Let's fight! Lord Shirahhime! ”

Wait, how did the good end come to fight, how did it turn into a fight?

So rude.

"This guy will bring you to me! I'll be waiting for you there, Lord Shirahhime. ”

The black smoke dissipated from the girl's body, and the gray eyes turned turquoise.

……

She didn't agree yet, and Arka reluctantly reached out and covered her forehead.

Another guy who talks to himself.

"Damn! The guy ......" staggered a few steps, and the girl who had just stabilized gritted her teeth and cursed a few words, then raised her head, her green eyes were full of condensation, and she said, "Hey! Agreed, nothing. ”

"Don't make decisions for me." Arka sighed expressionlessly.

"You don't have to think about it at all, does it? Aren't you all like that? Cannibalism devours each other, what is there to think about, effortless food, who doesn't want to ......"

'Hmmm'

The scabbard was nailed to the wooden fence and buzzed a few times.

Alka, who was holding the knife without a scabbard and pointing it directly at the girl, sighed again: "It's all said, don't make decisions for me......" She raised her eyes, and her gray-blue eyes looked at the girl who froze without much emotion: "Don't let me repeat it again." ”

"The ......"

Bucky suddenly held out his hand.

"Huh?"

Receiving attention, he trembled, swallowed, and asked, "Can I ask for science about what is the Grim Reaper and what is void?" ”

"Ah, the Grim Reaper is what you think it is......"

"Huh?!!!!" Bucky's whole person was struck by lightning and scorched.

"As for the ......," Arka expected Bucky to have that stupid look on his face, and she didn't want to hide anything.

"The evil thing that the Grim Reaper wants to slew is about that." Alka's explanation was succinct, but someone perfected it for her.

"Void is after the death of human beings, unwilling, and finally reduced to the void of creatures, after becoming void, they will have masks on their faces, void holes, they become void when they have no memory of human beings, they begin to fight each other, devour their own kind, become stronger, like beasts, they also eat humans, the level of void is divided into Killian, the lowest void, Achucas, evolved by Killian, has the IQ of humans, the strength is several times that of Killian, and finally there is Varstord, he is the strongest of the void circle, closer to the appearance of humans, but there are not many of them...... I don't know how you came into a human-like form, but I can assure you that you are Achucas. ”

The girl looked at Arka, who looked like a human.

And Arka calmly continued: "The above science popularization is over." ”

"Oh, it's your god of death who has become indistinguishable from a human~" Arka added.

"What are you talking about?!"

"Ah, you don't know, do you? The Grim Reaper betrayed the Grim Reaper, came to the Void Circle, summoned the Void, and transformed, gave a new name 'Broken Face', and then attacked the Corpse Soul Realm and reality, when I left, the war seemed to be nearing the end, and the Grim Reaper had been in a weak position~"

Arka has never liked death, so she said this in order to be angry with the other party.

At the same time, she also concealed the follow-up.

Even though the Grim Reaper has been in a weak position, the light of hope still flickers.

Hmph, Aizen that guy is doomed.

Arka turned to leave, curled the corners of his mouth, revealing a mocking sneer.

The next day, everyone was doing what they were supposed to do as always, but there seemed to be one person missing.

So Roger, who was eating meat and drinking wine, ordered: "Shanks, go and pull that kid up!" If you go any further, it will be dark. ”

"Yes, Captain."

The girl who was detained on the boat was also given a seat, and at this moment she looked at Roger in the first place.

Roger found out, and with his cheeks bulging, he asked, "What?" ”

"Not afraid?" She said it so clearly last night, so aren't you afraid?

"Haha, how can anyone be afraid of his companions! Although that guy in Arka has a bad temper and doesn't know how to show mercy when beating people, but overall, she's not as bad as you say, she's a nice little girl hahaha, right? Roger said with a laugh, and he asked the people around him again.

"Ah, it's just a little tsundere, a little duplicity, and everything else is good." Reilly looked at the little girl and said meaningfully, "There are good and bad people. ”

"Oh." The little girl looked at Roger again, but finally didn't say anything, lowered her eyes, and quietly ate the food of her fingers.

Shanks knocked on Alka's door and shouted, "Arka, get up!" ”

“……”

It was quiet inside, and no one answered, so Shanks took his own hands, using his little trick, wire, and opened the door.

The room was a little dark.

Shanks walked to the window, opened the curtains, and the light shone in, hitting the bulging bed.

"Arka's up." Shanks walked over, reached out, and patted the clump of things.

I didn't move, and I didn't care.

Shanks was a little distressed, he stood in front of Alka's bed, tilted his head, and finally leaned closer, one leg on the edge of the bed, his knee on the not-so-hard sheet, and the other hand pressed against her pillow, and asked, "Alka, what's wrong with you?" Sick? Do you want me to call Mr. Ship Doctor? ”

Three questions popped out of Shanks' mouth.

"Shut up."

Finally, a muffled voice came from the quilt.

"I'm going to sleep a little longer."

She indirectly drove Shanks away.

But Shanks pretended to be stupid and said, "Huh? I woke up early this morning, just in time, let's sleep together. ”

Hey, did you know that there is a difference between men and women?

Shanks took up a corner of the bed, and even stretched out his hand too much to put on the curled Arka.

He leaned closer, resting his forehead against the covers, closing his eyes, and said, "Everyone is waiting for you to go to breakfast, but I think Bucky will leave you one." ”

"By the way, today's breakfast has your favorite fruit, but I don't like it, it's too sour, so I'll give you my share."

"After eating, we can sit on the railing and fish, and we can ask Mr. Chef to process the fish for us, but Alka can bake it himself if he wants~"

Arka wrapped in the quilt narrowed her eyes, listening to Shanks's small chatter, and she could feel the weight of the arm on her body.

Ah, Shanks, you've got fat.

"Arka, we are companions, no companion will be afraid or retreat because of the other party's race, so...... Alka should not hide in the quilt. ”

The arm on top of his body tightened a little.

Alka in the quilt was silent, and finally hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled silently.

In the quilt she said, "What to hide! I slept late last night and I want to sleep a little more! ”

"Eun-en-en, let me sleep for a while, too."

Shanks hugged sideways, his red hair stood out unusually on the white quilt, he closed his eyes, hooked the corners of his mouth, and thought in a good mood: What a good weather.

The sun was shining on them, and as Shanks said, the weather was really good.

Listening to the steady breath in his ears, Arka scolded softly: "Idiot." ”

I don't know if she's referring to Shanks or herself.

In the end, Arka gave him half of the quilt, and looking at the very close face, she said, "Hey, don't pretend, I know you didn't sleep." ”

"But I want to sleep now, well~ let's rely on it, the captain won't be angry." Shanks, with his eyes closed, opened his eyes, and the small figure of Arka was reflected in his eyes, he bared his teeth, smiled very cunningly, and put his hand on it, and he even leaned over.

“… Take it away, or chop it up. ”

Arka was silent for a moment, the extra gravity on her waist making her slightly unhappy.

"Alka's hand can be on me, too."

Shanks, who didn't grasp the point at all, or grabbed it again, reached out, grabbed Alka's other hand, pulled it in, put it on his waist, and patted the back of Alka's hand, and said proudly: "Look, that's fair." ”

“……”

No, she didn't mean that at all!

The hand on Shanks' waist was clicked.

Then Arka keenly felt the flesh around Shanks' waist tighten.

Well? Arka raised an eyebrow and looked at Shanks with his eyes closed.

The hand was moving.

Shook a little.

"Shanks, so you're afraid of itching~" Arka said meaningfully.

Shanks implied that he didn't feel it, but it didn't work at all, he could only open his eyes helplessly, and said a little pitifully: "No." ”

"Really?"

Arka scratched.

Then they made a fuss in this bed.

"Hahahaha Arka don't ......"

"Shut up, whoever sleeps with me is going to die!"

"Hahaha, I was wrong, I won't dare next time......"

"Is there a next time?!"

"Hahaha......"

Eventually, Shanks grabbed the hands on his waist that were doing whatever he wanted, and it was only then that he realized that they seemed to be a little messy now.

Arka was wearing loose clothes, which slipped a little because of the two frolicking, revealing Bai Ze's shoulders.

Shanks, on the other hand, was blushing because he had been laughing for too long, and his red hair was messy.

The two of them are half a pound and eight taels, but it seems that Alka is worse.

Because of playing too much, Alka's face is also a little ruddy, and her gray-blue eyes are even more beautiful.

When Shanks saw it, he immediately looked down, only to see a white and tender belly that had been lifted up......

A black hole smaller than a fist is up there.

"It's ......"

He asked hesitantly.

"Void hole, this is void hole."

Arka glanced at it and said unconcernedly.

But for Shanks, it seems to hurt because it's straight.

"Does it hurt?"

“…… You can touch it. ”

Arka was lying on the bed with his head slightly sideways, backhanded, took Shanks' hand, pulled it down, and put it on her stomach.

"It's a little cold."

Shanks' final answer was this.

"Huh? Is it? ”

Arka hadn't touched it herself, and she reached out with some curiosity, intending to feel it herself, but was stopped by Shanks.

Shanks held Arka's hand and said with a smile: "Lied to you, but it feels so weird, so interesting, well, hurry up, Arka, we have also relied on it, and if we don't go out, we will be laughed at." ”

"If someone dares to laugh, I'll make him cry."

"Arka is whatever he says, well, I'll wait for you outside."

Shanks bent his eyes and looked at Arka with tenderness and warmth in his eyes.

He jumped out of bed, ran out of the room in three or two steps, and after saying a word to her, closed the door.

Outside the door, Shanks, who was leaning against the wall, lowered his head, the curvature of the corners of his mouth disappeared, looked at the hand that had just touched the void hole, and muttered: "...... It's so sad. ”

Empty, cold, lifeless.

This is what Shanks felt when he touched the void.

Just like when I first encountered Arka, I didn't feel anything.

'Click', the door opened, Arka changed her clothes and walked out, her millet hair faintly glowing golden in the sun, she glanced at Shanks at the door, and said, "Gone." ”

"Hmm!"

Shanks looked up and smiled as he looked at Arka and quietly clenched his hands.

But that was the beginning, and now Alka won't be like that.

She already knew what to laugh at.
