10. Chapter X
"Beware!"
Shanks blocked the knife swinging from behind Bucky, and Bucky immediately replied with a knife back, and said in shock.
"Scared the hell out of me! I thought today was the day of the tomato sale, tsk, this red color really doesn't cost money. Although the latter sentence is a bit of a joke, Bucky is genuinely shocked.
"Hahaha, if you're scared, go back to the cabin, little ghost!" The senior, who was covered in blood, stood not far from them and said loudly.
"Who's scared!! I'm a pirate! How could you be afraid of this!! Bucky, who had been stepped on by the tail, jumped up, and the shark's mouth roared back.
"Good ambition! Then fight well, I'll go to the captain's side, tsk, it's like this again, it's really uneasy......" The senior's small chatter finally disappeared, and he complained somewhat about the Roger who rushed forward without hesitation.
But when he remembered what Roger had said earlier, the corners of his blood-stained mouth hooked.
[Hahaha, don't I have you behind me?! ć
Tsk, even if they were, they couldn't be so messy with it, Captain!
Compared with the predecessors who have experienced the fighting, Shanks, who has just become a pirate, the two rookies, are so tender that people want to chop them with a knife and be a roast bird!
Luckily, though, they had a battle-hardened Arka, and when they were about to be slaughtered, they attacked, swept away, and then complained.
"! Who swept the enemy here!? Labor and management were almost crushed!! ā
"It's a new kid." The senior who had been pressed crawled out of the pseudo-corpse foaming at the mouth.
As soon as he said this, some people noticed the combination of Shanks.
The three of them faced the enemy back to back.
There was no trace of panic on Alka's face, on the contrary, Bucky was afraid.
"Hey, hey! Alka, can you hurry up next time? I was almost scared to death!! ā
"Hmph, you still have practice." Arka snorted coldly at Bucky's complaints, and said, "I wonder what will happen if I throw you into the enemy's base camp?" ā
"Hey !! who will die" Bucky listened, turned his head and snarled.
"Haha, that sounds interesting." Shanks was very calm, listened to Alka's words, and said with a smile.
As a result, he gets a slap on the head from Bucky.
"You're going to die! Labor and management don't go with you!! ā
"Hey, I'm just talking casually, now we go to the enemy's base camp, and we can only be killed/killed." Shanks said knowingly, he rubbed the place where he was photographed, grinning, but the look in his eyes became more and more determined.
He wants to be strong!
"It's good to know!" Bucky breathed a sigh of relief, if Shanks decided to go, even ten cows wouldn't be able to pull it back.
"However, this can be owed first, haha." Shanks said again.
"Get out!!" When Bucky heard this, he immediately exploded.
"Well, that's exactly what I thought." Arka stunned an enemy with a single slash, and nodded in agreement.
Bucky immediately wanted to kneel for the two of them.
"Please spare QAQ."
He hasn't counted enough money yet!
"Hahaha, those little ghosts are interesting." Stark laughed as he threw his playing cards away, and an enemy who tried to sneak up on him fell, with a spade stuck in his neck.
"Indeed, the cooperation is good, so that we don't have to pay attention to them." The swordsman next to him, Anderson, said with some relief, it's a rookie, it doesn't matter, as long as it doesn't lag behind, so it seems that the captain has found three okay reserves, but he cares more about the little girl with a knife and a scabbard......
Anderson withdrew his gaze and threw himself into the fight.
Forget it, since the captain brought it up, it shouldn't be a big problem, just pay more attention to it.
That's right, don't watch Shanks and the others fight alone, the so-called rookies gather together, in fact, secretly, there are still many people who are distracted and pay attention to them, in case something happens, they can take a ride.
Seniors, you are such good people!
This war is still won by Roger and them.
No hesitation, no fear, this is the key to winning.
Shanks was shouted out by Roger as he watched from behind the crowd watching what Roger would do with the remaining enemies.
"Shanks, you guys! Come here! ā
You guys, here we mean Shanks, Bucky, Arka.
"Yes, Captain!" Shanks and Bucky squeezed through a crowd of people and finally came to Roger's side, they stood up straight and looked at Roger very seriously, while Arka appeared on Roger's side in a flash, and the speed surprised the people around him.
And Roger was very calm, and also looked at the young men who were stalked and pulled onto the boat by him, all of them were wounded, but they were not fatal, of course, you don't expect such a thing as a wound on Alka's body, he smiled, shook his beard, patted Shanks on the shoulder, and said, "You guys did a good job!" ā
"Hee-hee."
Shanks smiled, even when he was slapped by the captain.
And Bucky smiled, but blushed.
Well, a shy lad.
"I ask you, what are they going to do?" Roger withdrew his hand and asked with a straight face.
He first looked at Alka, who had no expression.
Arka raised his chin, looked into Roger's eyes, and said calmly, "Cut the grass and eradicate the roots." ā
That's right, a very cruel but realistic four words.
"Why?" Roger asked.
"Enemy." Arka looked at Roger with the eyes of an idiot.
"Enemies can be friends." Roger said.
This time, Arka didn't talk, because she didn't understand how an enemy could become a friend.
So Roger asked Bucky, "What about you?" Red-nosed imp. ā
Bucky, who hates being called red-nosed by others, can't help but have no shark mouth this time, and he stammers, "IāI support the captain's approach." ā
At this point, Bucky is quite cunning.
"Uh-huh, Shanks." Roger nodded, asking the last person.
"Me?" Shanks pointed at himself and smiled, "Let them go." ā
"Huh-?!!!"
Some seniors were surprised.
Shanks was under Roger's interested gaze, and continued: "Anyway, we can beat them, it doesn't matter if we let them go, let alone ......"
Shanks scratched his face a little embarrassed, his eyes shifted, and the words behind him were a little whispered: "None of them may have a family, if they die, the family will be very sad." ā
Shanks whispered, but everyone present was not an ordinary person.
Hearing what Shanks said, some people couldn't help but laugh out loud.
This made Shanks's face flush, and he hurriedly said to Roger, "Captain! That ......"
"Hahahaha!! That's a good point!! You kid has something to my liking!! Roger suddenly laughed and patted Shanks on the shoulder again, this time Roger staggered Shanks a few steps with some force.
Roger turned around and asked, "Brothers, how about leaving this guy alone!?" ā
"Hahaha, it's not the first time you've let go of the enemy, captain, we're all used to it!"
"And it's not the first time this guy has ever been!"
"Put it, put it, put it! We are also counting on them to deliver money to our door!! ā
The above words have exposed a lot of things~
In the end, Roger and the others took their money, guns, guns, and gunpowder, and let these guys go.
Before leaving, someone actually shouted to this side: "That red-haired little ghost!" Leave you alone this time!! Next time it won't be that simple!! ā
"Huh?" Shanks was puzzled.
At this time, the deputy captain Reilly patted him on the shoulder and explained to him: "A bunch of duplicitous pirates, ignore them. ā
As he spoke, he took a puff of cigarette and asked, "You kid use a knife?" ā
"Hmm!" Shanks nodded.
"Oh, wake up early tomorrow, I'll wait for you here." After saying that, the cigarette in his mouth was also spit out, Reilly withdrew his hand, turned away, waved his hand, and said to the three of them, "It's not too early, you little ghosts should go back to sleep." ā
"Yes! Reilly-senpai! Thank you! Even though he knew that Reilly couldn't see, Shanks bent over excitedly and gratefully.
That night, Shanks couldn't sleep with excitement, while Bucky was already asleep and snoring.
He eventually rolled over, got out of bed, got out of bed quietly, and walked out the door.
He had just closed the door, and when he turned around, he saw Arka sitting cross-legged on the railing, holding a long knife.
Shanks looked at Arka in the moonlight, and the salty sea breeze blew through, ruffling Shanks's red hair.
"Shanks?" Arka turned his head and looked at the boy behind him.
"Ah, is Arka looking at the moon?"
Shanks walked over in a few steps, jumped, sat on the railing, and asked.
"There's nothing to see about the moon." Arka pursed the corners of his lips, a little disgusted by the moon.
Moon: Blame me?
"I've watched a few... It's been a few years of the moon. "It was originally swallowed by Arka for hundreds of years, but it was changed to a few years.
So Arka said she was about to throw up.
"I'm sobering up and then ......"
Alka stopped.
Shanks, who listened to what the girl said, turned his head sideways, his eyes a little puzzled.
Arka glanced at Shanks, withdrew her gaze, and looked at the deep blue sea in front of her, her gray-blue eyes were puzzled, and she muttered, "I don't understand what happened tonight, shouldn't the enemy all be cut down and eradicated?" Also Why can enemies still be friends? And what are friends? I don't even understand......"
She asked three questions in a row.
As a result, after waiting for a while, no one answered, Arka turned his head sideways, and saw Shanks's stupid face, resolutely, Arka blushed.
She tried to make amends, and immediately said, "I'm just asking!" I'm going to sleep! ā
As she spoke, she jumped off the railing, but before she could take a few steps, Shanks grabbed her wrist.
Arka didn't turn her head because she felt like she was a little more ... Lose face.
Arka was blushing and frowning, thinking so.
"Arka, I was just so happy." Shanks' voice came from behind him with a smile.
"What's there to be happy about in this kind of thing!" Arka said with some annoyance.
"Because Arka is asking me, hehe, it's okay if Arka doesn't know, I'll teach you and take you to find the answer, so if Arka doesn't know any questions, you can ask me, as long as I know, I'll sue you, even if I don't know, we can find the answer together."
Shanks tugged at the cold wrist with a smile in his eyes, and looked at the girl in front of him with her back to him, maybe she didn't notice that the tips of her red ears were leaking out, but what did it matter, he just knew.
"Sleep your sleep!!"
Annoyed and embarrassed, Arka shook off Shanks' hand and flashed into the room in a few steps.
Leave a smirk Shanks.
Alka, just did not refuse.
