"Hiss, it hurts..."

Shanks, who had managed to climb up from the sea, sat cross-legged on the deck, baring his teeth and shouting.

And Arka didn't know where to get a hot egg, and put a black blue on his face that she had beaten out, his face was expressionless, and he was not shocked by his grinning strange cry at all, but used a little more force.

Well, Arka was annoyed, after all, she had just been teased by the red hair.

Damn it! Obviously, she is the one who reads the little yellow book, why is he reading it again when she looks at it now? This number of red hairs is really getting more and more itchy!

Although what the red hair said was the truth.

But...... Tut!

"Na, na~ Arka, what are your plans next?" Shanks saw that people were not shocked, so he could only pout his lips and change his ways.

"It doesn't hurt anymore?"

Arka glanced at him and asked coolly.

"It doesn't hurt anymore!" Shanks said with a serious face, as if the person who had just shouted pain was not him, he sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at the beautiful woman sitting in front of him, but few people believed women, because she looked like a girl in her early eighteen, and he... cough, my appearance and clothing have been pulled for several points.

Stand together......

The red-haired eyes shone with a faint glow, and then a black cloud floated overhead, and he was depressed.

'......' something, Arka was not frightened by the strange scream of the red hair, but by the strange frustration.

This... What's the situation!?

She coughed dryly and said her main purpose this time, well, it was because of this that she would be caught by Shanks, the red hair, and then ......

Arka's face was a little gloomy.

"Ahem, not long ago, Nickles sent a letter saying that his daughter was born..."

"Huh! Is that guy already married? Shanks looked up in horror and looked at Alka: "There are still children!?" ”

“… He didn't send you a letter? ”

Speaking of which, there was indeed a carrier pigeon not long ago, but at that time he was ......

Arka looked silently at the man with the suspicious liquid in his mouth, she seemed to already know the answer.

"Ahem!" Shanks came back to his senses, coughed, he wiped the liquid from the corner of his mouth, and said solemnly: "Yo Xi, then go there!" I haven't seen him in years. ”

Well, there was a time when I wanted to put a burlap bag and throw people into the sea to feed the fish, but unfortunately I was finally exchanged for money by Reilly's seniors←_←

So they returned to the peaceful island, and when they got off the island, they were greeted by someone.

"I'm rubbing, Captain, you can't be a nobleman, right!?" Someone was frightened by the pomp and circumstance in front of them and muttered something.

"Not really! The guy ......" Shanks grinded his teeth as he looked at the escorts on either side.

When the companions heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief: "It would be terrible if the nobles were like the captain......"

What the heck!? Shanks turned his head and stared blankly at the man who said this, thinking about how to show him how to show him the horror of the captain.

I saw that the middle-aged man in armor, the leader of the team, was looking at the group of pirates who came over, and he didn't seem to hear their conversation, and said, "Your Excellency the King has been waiting for you for a long time, please come with me." ”

He leaned over and pleased.

"Ahh Damn, that Nickles guy is such a mess......" Shanks followed behind the leader, muttering that he seemed a little dissatisfied, probably... Problems with pomp?

"Ah, after all, that lady saved the King, just three years ago." The leader who walked in front did not get angry because he was disrespectful to the king, but explained the reason for the pomp and circumstance.

"Huh? Three years ago?! Shanks' eyes widened, he stopped, looked at Arka to the side in disbelief, and then reached out and accused, "Three years ago... Alka, you, you, you QAQ......"

took a bite of you, but you didn't know what to say, in short, she stared at Arka with tears in her eyes, and she was uncomfortable.

Do you want her to say that she is just using Nickles as a guinea pig?

No, no, no, if you say it, there will probably be more questions!?

A cold sweat broke out on Alka's forehead, and he kept his mouth tightly and didn't say a word about the past.

Shanks: QAQ

"Ahem, I don't know what to call it?" Beckman twitched the corners of his mouth, ignoring Shanks' pitiful accusations, and turned to ask the man in charge.

"Captain of the Guard, Malf."

He explained himself.

Marff led the group into the palace, came to the room where the distinguished guests were welcomed, pushed it open, and then turned sideways, and invited.

"Wow~Golden~" Shanks, who was walking in front, looked around, and then was flashed by the gold on the pillar, and inevitably said such a sentence.

"Haha Shanks, long time no see." As soon as Nikelus heard this, he smiled, he was the same as back then, at most he was more mature, his hair was longer, and he looked more imposing as a king... Tut.

Shanks looked at Nickles in civilian clothes, couldn't help but smack, and looked at him with a little impatience.

Nickles looked at Shanks, guessed a little, and said, "How do you think about how to put on the burlap bag again?" ”

"Hahaha, no—it's weird!" Shanks said with a grin, and then his expression changed in the next second, and he said the last two words with a paralyzed face.

He did have that thought←←

"You're still the same as you were back then." Nickles stepped forward, stretched out his hand, as if he was very good, and slapped his palm on Shanks's shoulder, his green eyes full of sincere smiles: "Apprentice, no, Lord Shanks is now a captain." ”

"Tsk, don't talk about our good relationship." Shanks said with a paralyzed face, very disgusted, but did not pat the hand on his shoulder: "Prince of Weak Chickens, ah, no, it is Lord Nickles, King of Weak Chickens." ”

"Hey, hey, don't be so ruthless, I just had some interest in Arka back then." Nickles heard it, and said with a smile in his eyes.

"I can't bear it at all."

"Hey, hey, hey, is it okay to be so domineering? Alka, look at this guy, he has such a dirty idea. Nickles let go of his hand and turned to Alka, who was sitting on a chair to the side of him, muttering like a king, just like they had been on the ship back then, although in the end the cargo was exchanged for money by Captain Reilly hahahaha!

"You've got to take care of him."

Arka picked up the tea that had been prepared earlier, lazily raised his eyes, glanced at the two of them, and then waved at Beckman and them, and beckoned, "Sit, you're welcome." ”

"Hey, hey, I'm the master, right?"

Although Nickles said this, there was no displeasure on his face.

And Beckman and his gang sat down very familiarly, drinking tea and eating dim sum.

And then someone complained.

"Why not meat?"

"Hey, hey, you pirates, don't be too familiar!"

Nickles was upset, and it was better than nothing.

"Ah, I'm sorry, it's okay, I brought it myself." Rakhi, who said that, took out a large piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, and then said with emotion: "It's still delicious meat~"

Nickles: ......

These pirates are so naturally familiar!!

"Arka, Tangerine~"

Shanks peeled the orange and gave it to Alka on the side with a look of invitation.

"Oh." Arka took it very calmly, and then turned his head not to see Shanks, but turned back to see the two people flashing again, and Nikles raised his hand to cover his face.

"Hey, hey, hey, you guys can stop showing off, it's enough to show off every time, it's just a daily thing!"

"Aren't you already married?" Shanks turned his head and looked at Nickles, who was already an adult, with disdain, and his eyes seemed to say: Are you married or not, do you understand?

The next second, Shanks regretted it, because Nickles said expressionlessly:

"Ah, it's you, after so many years, you haven't married anyone yet."

“……”

The 10,000-ton boulder smashed into Shanks' head, and his vertebrae nearly snapped.

"Sooner or later, I'll get married!" Shanks stammered, trying to push the boulder off his head.

"Oh." Nickles glanced sideways at Shanks, full of disbelief and disdain.

"......" Shanks sweated on his forehead, and finally turned his head to look at Alka, who was buried in eating oranges, and asked pitifully: "Yes, yes, Alka!" ”

"......", how she wants to say it, she always feels that she is pheating herself or not.

"Well, this orange is good." Arka tore half of the orange and stuffed it into Shanks's mouth, trying to gagged him, and at the same time glanced at Nickles with a hint of ferocity, and the look in his eyes seemed to say: Say these words again, hang yourself on the southeast branch!

Nickles touched his nose, and for the sake of his appearance, he chose another topic.

"Ahem, that Arka, what you said earlier has come true."

Nickles swept away the look just now and said with a straight face.

Alka's eyes flickered slightly when he heard Nickles' words.

There were two fewer people in the hall, and Arka followed Nikles to see his daughter, who had not been born for a long time, so that only Shanks and them were left.

"Damn! I wasn't allowed to follow! Shanks, who had been left in the hall by Arka, angrily picked up an apple and took a vicious bite, chewing it as if he was fighting with someone.

"You can sneak up on it now~" Rakki made a note for Shanks.

"Great idea!" Shanks listened, immediately nodded in agreement, rubbed his hands, and said with great interest: "As long as you are careful, Arka will not notice, Yoxi!" Just do it! ”

Beckman looked at the back of the departing body with the flames of war burning, a drop of sweat broke out on his forehead, and he said: "Hey, you won't be thrown into the sea again, right?" ”

"Hahaha, who knows!" Jesus laughed and laughed.
