In the end, it was not Shanks who killed this group of pirates with a good knife that sharpened iron like clay, but the villain Roger and his gang who returned in a boat.

The speed was as fast as Alka knocking him over every second, and it was astonishingly fast.

And what made Shanks's eyes shine even more was the captain he had always thought was unreliable, contrary to the previous appearance of the monkey jumping up and down, low, with a thin angry voice, not big or small, just reaching everyone's ears.

"Who allowed you to do it to my companions?"

He had not yet agreed to recognize him as captain, but the man regarded him as a companion.

When Roger dealt with a group of pirates for revenge, Shanks asked, "What is your dream?" ”

I saw Roger turn around and face him, the corners of his mouth suddenly hooked, revealing a big smile, and said firmly: "Of course it's to be One Piece!" ”

Shanks's pupils narrowed when he heard this, and he pointed the tip of the knife at the ground, and then asked, "No matter how dangerous it is?" ”

"Of course! The position of One Piece belongs to Gore D. Roger! No matter how dangerous! Besides, don't I still have you--, men can't give in at will, haha. Roger laughed, and his companions laughed and joked to the captain, "If you don't have a navigator captain, you should love each other with the Sea King, and if you don't have a cook, you should eat raw meat, etc."

And under the ridicule of everyone, Roger still giggled, without the slightest displeasure.

Perhaps Arka was right, Shanks clenched the knife in his hand, looked at Roger with a firm gaze, and said, "Captain, my name is Shanks. ”

"Hahahaha-Shanks, from the first time I saw you, I knew that there would be such a day, you see that now you have a fate, right?" Roger smiled so badly, pointed to the boat, only to see a black shadow slowly walking out of the boat, and then zoomed in, and finally saw it clearly, only to know that it was a chimpanzee with a big red flower in his ear, with a shy face, and said to Shanks, who was suddenly paralyzed: "You see that there are apes and you are not afraid of no dung, don't you have to obediently get on the boat in the end?" Roger smirked.

So he was referring to this ape and that dung......

Shanks suddenly felt a subtle feeling in his heart, and then this subtlety turned ominous......

I saw his newfound captain pointing at him, and said to a big red orangutan on his forehead: "Hey, Ah Hua! This is the person who wants to see you! ”

And then, the gorilla's face turned red instantly.

Wait a minute! Σ(っ°Д°; How did it become red with black hair?!

"Chirp-roar~" The orangutan hung his chest with both hands, and suddenly jumped down from the boat, this one shook the gravel on the ground a few times, and walked in front of Shanks, I have to say that this orangutan is three meters tall, and it is estimated that it will be three of his heights stacked now to be able to look at it.

"Roar, roar, roar! Roar~" The orangutan opened his mouth and spoke in a foreign language, and the loud sound blew his hair up.

"Ah Hua is saying, since we met, when will we get married?"

"Ha ?!!"

This is the first time that Shanks has been pitted by his newly recognized captain, and it is also the first time he has seen such a random captain!

The orangutan girl chased Shanks, wanting to get close to her future husband, but Shanks ran all the way, just not letting the orangutan girl hug her.

So the group laughed, and Shanks and Ah Hua played a game of chasing me.

Maji, labor and management want to quit the group! Shanks rarely burst into a rude sentence in his heart, feeling that he must have a funny brain, so he called that guy Captain.

Who knew that the captain seemed to have a mind reading, and laughed beside him: "Want to quit the group?" No problem, wait until the labor becomes the king of the pirates, or you will stay on the labor ship! ”

"......" Shanks.

However, Ah Hua, who had been chasing him and yelling, suddenly stopped, and together with the group of laughing people, they straightened their faces, and everyone secretly held their weapons.

And Shanks didn't seem to notice it, after hearing Ah Hua stop, he breathed a sigh of relief and stopped, and then looked up slightly, and saw Alka coming out of the broken alley, only to see that she was still carrying Bucky who had not woken up in her hand, and when Shanks just wanted to say hello, Ah Hua behind him suddenly screamed and ran away......

“…… Well, that's Ah Hua. Shanks had a headache and introduced Ah Hua who screamed and ran away.

"I know orangutans." Arka looked at Shanks with disdain, she stepped forward, threw Bucky to the ground, and said, "Dig him out, give me back the knife." ”

The slender, white fingers spread out and pointed at Shanks.

"Okay." Shanks didn't say much, just put the knife in the scabbard and returned it to Alka, and before he could do it, he said, "This knife is very sharp." ”

"I know, it's my knife, and if it's not sharp, it's going to be troublesome." Arka tied the knife back into place, and the voice of Shanks was rarely hesitant in his ears, which was not like Shanks's temperament, and his movements paused slightly.

"Alka, that, I'm ......"

"Say it quickly."

"We can stay together, right?"

Under Alka's two crisp words, Shanks immediately spoke sharply, and as soon as he said it, he felt that something was wrong, and then his face and hair changed color.

"I, I, I didn't mean that! I mean, can we be together...... Wrong! I, I, I mean, can we stay like this for the past two years? Be the best match! ”

Shanks knotted his tongue and finally said what he wanted to say, probably.

Arka looked at Shanks, who didn't know where to put his hands and feet in front of him, and his gray-blue eyes showed inexplicable deep meaning for the first time.

Originally, he was floating around, and was even accused of zhì very well, avoiding Shanks and Bucky's murderous aura dissipated under Shanks's mixing.

Naturally, she didn't think in the direction of what Shanks knew, but that this kid had the wrong tendon.

Arka tightened her grip on the scabbard, and under Shanks' expectant gaze, she opened and closed her mouth, "Ah, I see. ”

I see, instead of no problem, okay.

Sure enough, Shanks thought dejectedly, red hair.

After Arka saw it, she subconsciously stretched out her hand, because of her height, she also stood on tiptoe and touched Shanks's hair, and after she finished this series of movements, she felt that something was wrong.

Shanks, who was rubbed his head, was stunned, he looked at the girl who came forward, and also subconsciously bent down to make her more relaxed.

Arka withdrew her hand, her face was a little wrong, she pursed the corners of her mouth, and said, "You guys talk slowly." ”

With that, before Shanks could say anything, she dodged and disappeared in front of Shanks's eyes, and Arka returned to the broken alley, where she walked, stepping on the gravel and looking at the hand that had rubbed Shanks' hair.

She didn't seem to be trying to say that just now......

So what's it?

Shanks looked at the place where Arka was standing, and the original frustration and disappointment disappeared a lot under the rubbing of Arka just now, but he was still sad.

Ah, he was rejected again.

"Hey, boy, where did that little imp come from?"

Shanks turned his head and looked at the man with wavy black hair who asked him, wearing round glasses on the bridge of his nose, and also carrying a knife at his waist. ”

Even after two years of getting along, he didn't know.

Shanks thought again in frustration.

At this moment, Roger, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, spoke, and said, "Shanks, you kid don't like people, do you?" ”

"Huh?! Why、Why do you say that, Captain!? Alka and I are, companions, friends......" Shanks' face turned red instantly, and his hands quickly shook, denying Roger's words, but in the next second, someone poked his little nest.

"Companion friend? She probably didn't think so. ”

Isn't that too hurtful!

"Arka, she just doesn't understand, doesn't understand what a friend or companion is! She didn't hide with her mom and them, and she didn't fight with her dad, but she knew where Bucky and I were, and she was willing to lend me the knife that she had been keeping with her......" Shanks defended Alka, with a hint of sadness in his eyes, and he didn't know that it was because of the man's straightforward words, and Arka didn't understand, and he only said one sentence in the end: "Arka, she's not a bad guy, she just doesn't understand ......"

Shanks remembered an incident a long time ago, when Arka appeared on this island not long ago, she didn't want to say more about her origin, and the people on the island didn't ask much, but pitied her more and more, thinking that it was a sin created by pirates, especially the boss of Sweet Fruit stuffed her with colorful candies from time to time, and she accepted it, but asked afterwards:

What is it? …… Sugar? What's the use? 】

[Eating one will make you feel better? But what's the use of that? It can't make it easy for people to survive, well, it's really boring. 】

Then the sweets, which glittered golden and beautiful in the sun, flowed out of the girl's hands, and one by one fell to the ground, stuck to the dust, and became no longer beautiful and delicious.

Shanks remembered the girl's indifferent face and puzzled eyes, and it seemed to her that a drop of candy was a useless little stone.

She really doesn't understand anything......

"Good! I've decided! I want that girl to be our companion! Roger applauded suddenly, and said a word that beckoned his companions to surround him.

"Captain! Have you lost your brain in the vat again! What that girl just released is not a murderous aura that will come in a year or two! Recruit her on the boat, and she won't sleep well at night! ”

But the wayward captain covered his ears and shouted: "I haven't heard anything, I haven't heard anything, I want her to join the gang!" "Even in the end, he rolled directly on the ground, yes, a big man just rolled on the ground like a five or six-year-old child who didn't get candy.

The first time he met such a captain, it was still his own captain, Shanks looked silent and did not speak.

“……”

I don't know how to drop, and I want to quit the group again.
