'Bang'.

Uncle Aven, who had just come out of the kitchen, looked at the lively Shanks with shock in his eyes.

"Boy! How did you get better!? ”

Uncle Aven's eyes flashed with a slight light, and he seemed to see hope and asked.

"Ah, just get some sleep." Shanks paused, scratching his head and not knowing too much.

"No, it can't be, it's... No one can escape, boy, are you really going to get a good night's sleep!? ”

For the first time since the 'illness', he stepped forward quickly, reached out and grabbed Shanks's shoulder, and got closer, with an almost crazy light in his eyes, he grabbed Shanks, very hard: "There must be a way, otherwise how would you kid get better!" Sue me, boy, what is it, what the hell is—"

Uncle Evan finally shouted loudly, and he looked at Shanks, tears unconsciously streaming down his cloudy eyes.

"There must be a way......"

He muttered, his eyes filled with a hint of paranoia.

"It must be like this, it must be like this, as long as it is dedicated to the island god, everyone on the island will be fine...... It must be so, this must be an oracle! It must be—"

"Daddy!!"

A man rushed in from the outside, and pulled away the somewhat crazy Uncle Aven, it was his son Evan Winter, and unspeakable anger and grief appeared on his face that had been calm, but in an instant, the expression disappeared, and he took his father's thin hand, and there was still some inevitable sadness in his eyes.

"Daddy! Be cautious. ”

He said those two words in a low voice, turned his head to look at the pirates present, and turned back to the calm mayor he had seen before: "I'm sorry, my father said some nonsense, please don't care, the other three days will be the holy day of the island, please leave in three days, the holy day is not welcome outsiders." ”

"You're lying." Captain Roger, who crossed his legs and was very undignified with his feet buttoned, said.

I don't know if he's saying that outsiders are not welcome on the Holy Day, or if he's talking nonsense.

Evan Winter was silent, he looked at the man who had no one to guide him, but broke into the fog forest, and finally came back intact.

Perhaps, perhaps......

Evan Winter's eyes gleamed, but quickly sank.

Innocent people can no longer be involved.

"I don't have ......"

Evan Winter opened his mouth, but before he could finish speaking, a voice interjected.

She said, "Huh~ Your father looks delicious. ”

“！” Evan Winter's pupils shrank, and he turned his head to see a hand suddenly stabbed into Uncle Evan in the chest.

"Father, father, father—"

Evan Winter's flat expression shattered, and there was panic, sadness, anger, and hatred on his face......

The negativity of human beings appeared on his face at the same time.

Just as he stretched out his hand and was about to grab the girl's hand, he was grabbed by the red-haired boy, he turned his head sideways, and his voice was raised: "Let go-"

"Arka, she has no ill will." Shanks grabbed Evan Winter's hand and said in a straight voice, as if he was not frightened by the 'murder' in front of him.

He was convinced that Arka would not do such a thing.

"But—" Evan Winter was about to fight back violently, when he saw the girl named Arka withdraw her hand, which was not red blood, but ......

A black mist.

Is that......

Evan Winter was stunned, he forgot to argue, until his father Evan stumbled, then came back to his senses, shook off Shanks' hand, and grabbed him violently: "Daddy! ”

He looked at the black mist in Arka's hand.

"That's ......"

"Resentment." Arka said coldly, playing with what she was holding and putting in her mouth.

"Arka, eating indiscriminately will make you diarrhea!!" Shanks was so frightened that he hurriedly reached out and grabbed her, but unfortunately he was a step too slow.

Arka chewed, looked at Shanks with disdain, and said vaguely, "Ah, yours is what I ate...", she swallowed under Shanks' nervous, worried gaze, licked the corners of her mouth, and continued, "It's just that yours are gentle..."

"Huh?" Shanks listened and paused for a moment.

“… It tastes better than this guy. ”

"Huh?"

It seems that something has been exposed.

Shanks stared at Arka blankly, he didn't seem to have recovered yet.

"Is this the 'cause'?" Evan Winter asked, holding his panting father.

"Ahh Arka glanced at him, then withdrew his gaze.

"So, can that be troublesome, like now, eat, eat!?"

"Hah"

"No way!"

The former is Alka, the latter is Shanks.

"What if Alka eats a bad stomach! And... You don't taste as good as I do! ”

Pirates: ...... What the hell is this kid talking about! What's the deal with that proud face!?

To make sure what he said was the truth, Shanks looked at Arka, who was paralyzed, his eyes flashed, and asked, "Right, Alka." ”

“… Yes. "But it seems a little weird.

"Hear, if you eat something untasty, you'll have diarrhea!"

Shanks turned his head to look at Evan Winter.

"Ha, ha... Little girl..."Uncle Aven, who finally relieved his breath, felt that his whole body was now relaxed, and his throat was comfortable, he stretched out his hand and put it on Alka's shoulder, and his eyes lit up: "Little girl, please, save this island!" ”

"Huh? Do you think I am a saint? Arka looked at the old man who was pleading with her with an extremely strange expression, and she said in public, "We are pirates who do all kinds of evil. ”

"That's right, Vice-Captain."

Arka turned his head sideways and jumped over to the captain in the right position, and turned directly to Reilly, who was smoking a cigarette on the side, well, this person is more reliable.

Unreliable Captain Roger: QAQ

Reilly leaned against the wall, his head slightly bowed, and the lenses glowed white, and he said, "Ah." ”

"Wait, we're ...... it"

Captain Roger is upset, they're not pirates! But before he could finish speaking, he was knocked out by a cigarette stick from Reilly.

Roger, who had a big bag bulging on his head, looked for Lu Jiu on the side to seek comfort, but unfortunately people's hearts were all on that side, so ......

Roger: QAQ

"Do you think we pirates will help others?" Reilly asked, in a low voice.

Evan Winter gritted his gums, there was a faint gurgling sound, he clenched his fists, let go of the hand holding his father, 'Bang'! With a bang, he knelt on the ground, slammed his head on the ground, and said calmly: "I am willing to tell you the 'truth' about the island, and in return, all the money on the island will be yours." ”

'Da Da'

Reilly tapped on the cigarette stick, and the smoke and dust fell to the ground.

He raised his head, his lenses flashing white, and said, "Then tell us the truth." ”

Evan Winter's tight back loosened a little.

"Yes, this island ......"

"Wait." Rayleigh interrupted him suddenly, and the turn made Evan Winter nervous again.

"You don't like to listen to the truth like this, help your dad to sit down, it's still early, you can talk slowly."

“… Good. ”

Evan Winter helped his father, Uncle Evan to sit down, and went to serve tea and pour water, but everyone did not stop him, but waited patiently.

After he finished this qiē and sat down, Evan Winter slowly told the story of the island, the so-called island god, the so-called altar, and the so-called holy day.

Every year, on the Holy Day, the town has to hand over a beautiful girl, send the fog forest, and then the mayor of the town will send her down the cliff with his own hands, the so-called send-off, but just stretch out his hand to push her... That's it.

That's how his sister is... Gone.

Therefore, the first thing Evan Winter did when he became mayor was to cut off all evil customs, but before he could do it, the black 'island god' that was said to be perched under the cliff was real!

This is how the disaster came, and the people still fell ill with an incurable disease, and finally Evan Winter had to give in, and he made a deal with the island god for the safety of the people.

The island god can't touch the inhabitants of the island, and the people it wants, they will use the pirate top number, one person per month, and it doesn't care about male or female.

In the same way, they were expecting pirates to take out the island gods, but ......

What's the difference between him, him and the island god, Evan Winter covered his face, gritted his gums, and thought sadly and bitterly.

"So you regret it?" Reilly listened, raised an eyebrow, took out the cigarette, stuffed it into the cigarette mouth, and asked.

'Smack! ’

Evan Winter slammed the table, stood up, his eyes were firm, his cheeks tightened, and even though he was disgusted in his heart, he did not waver and said word by word: "No, I don't regret it." ”

He protected his townspeople, even if, even if......

"Oh, Arka." Reilly replied flatly, he looked sideways at the side drinking tea, and then stuck out his tongue Alka, probably bitter by the bitter tea.

"The island god appeared fifty years ago?"

Arka put down the teacup in his hand and asked.

"Yes."

"No one has seen him in the face?"

"Nope."

"I don't know the ability, and then I send a girl to it every year?"

"Yes, according to the old man, there was a plague on the island back then, and it was the island god who saved everyone, and the 'holy day' was that day."

Arka listened, pursed the corners of her lips, and she said a little speechlessly: "Plague? Tsk, self-directed and self-acted. Well, though, I have some clues, hey, give me the chain around your neck. ”

"This?" Evan Winter took out the chain around his neck without hesitation, it was a bone brand, although he took it out, his face showed a hint of hesitation.

"Can't untie it? Hmph, little trick. Arka raised his head slightly, a little arrogant and a little contemptuous.

As soon as she reached out, the chain that could not be taken off fell.

Arka took the chain, poofed, and hooked the corners of his mouth as if he was smiling, and his gray-blue eyes showed a hint of sarcasm: "Ah, one is seriously injured and has to lurk on the island." ”

"Virtual?"

"Ah, it's, it's starting to fight back."

Arka stood up, lifted the curtains, and looked outside.

The townsfolk who had been connected with each other on several occasions staggered along, getting closer and closer, and their eyes were no longer the first to see, dead and gray.

"This is!?"

"I couldn't bear it anymore and started to panic."
