24. Chapter XXIV

In the end, Reilly couldn't grind Roger, and nodded his head with great difficulty.

According to the map given by Nikelus, everyone set sail and ran there, and on the way they encountered a hail the size of a ship, which suddenly broke into the broken sea in the depths of the deep sea, and accidentally broke into the nest of the sea kings, because they accidentally became their companions, and chased most of the way.

The thrills along the way are like never before in Nickles.

Every time he was in the most danger, Alka on the side would reach out and help him split the danger.

At one point he didn't hold back and said to Arka , "Well, Arka I found that I like you a little." ”

Under the wail of the Sea King, Niklos looked at Arka standing in front of him, his turquoise eyes slightly bent.

"What did you say?" Arka, who didn't hear clearly, asked him sideways, and his gray-blue eyes were very cold.

"Nothing." Nickles chuckled, he thought he was a little scary at the thought, he was a sick man, she was a pirate......

In addition, Nickles looked sideways at the redhead not far from him, the man's name was Shanks, he was Arka's original companion, and his feelings were quite strong, but Nickles could see that he liked Arka very much.

It's been together from the beginning, and it's a good match no matter how you look at it.

After all, he didn't even dare to step out of his feet.

Arka didn't hear it, but it didn't mean that Shanks next to Nickles didn't hear it, he pursed the corners of his mouth lightly, and looked at Nickles with a straight face, who knew that the other party smiled at him.

'Bang Bang Bang'

Shanks burst out of his forehead with several wells, and suddenly he wanted to throw the man into the sea to feed the fish.

"Haha

"If you kid don't hurry, people will run away~" Stark, who was gambling on the side, took the time to say to Shanks inscrutablely: "Maybe people like that kind of style, do you say it's Bucky?" ”

"Yes, yes, hahahaha."

"......" two souls without companion love!

"Hahaha I won again! Give money! ”

Stark suddenly shouted, directly threw the card, Wang Bang.

Under the scolding of his companions, he collected the money with a smile on his face, but halfway Shanks somehow joined, and then ......

"I'll rub it, boy, are you out of the woods!!"

Stark, who had exported the money he had won so hard, clutched his chest in distress and asked as he jumped to the smiling Shanks.

"No~Stark senior~" Shanks dropped the last pile of cards in his hand: Wang Fang.

He won again.

"Poof-" Stark's eyes widened as he saw it, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he fell to the ground.

Afterwards, Bucky pulled Shanks to count the money he won, he took half of it, and returned the remaining half to Shanks, Bucky patted Shanks on the shoulder with a bright smile and said, "Next time this happens, remember to call me." ”

"Hmm." Shanks replied vaguely, and he accepted the money, thinking to himself how much candy could be bought with the money......

"Speaking of Shanks, if you don't follow up now, the weak guy will take advantage of it." After Bucky collected the money, he reached out and put his arm around Shanks' shoulder, saying to him very seriously.

Shanks, who heard Nickles' nickname, glanced at Bucky, and he said vaguely, "Arka likes the strong. ”

"Huh?" When Bucky heard this, his facial expression froze, and he looked at Shanks meaningfully and said, "So you like this mouthful." ”

"Huh?"

Shanks looked at Bucky in bewilderment.

"Ahem, then you have to work hard, of course, there is no guarantee that Arka will not like that mouthful......"

"Which bite do I like?"

The voice interjected, sending Bucky's hairs on end.

It was Alka, and Nickles at her side.

When Shanks saw it, the light in his eyes dimmed, and the whole person was decadent.

He really wanted to put this guy in a sack and throw it into the sea.

Weak Nickles: ...... Hehe.

"No, nothing, I just remembered, Senior Reilly told me to clean up the deck before, what, I'm going, you guys talk slowly!!" Seeing that Arka was like a mouse seeing a cat, Bucky immediately found an excuse and ran away with oil on the soles of his feet, so that only Alka, Nickles and Shanks were left in the rear cabin.

“… I just heard Stark say it. Arka withdrew his gaze from Bucky's back, turned to Shanks, blinked, and said, "A shot?" ”

“……”

"Why a shot?"

Nickles asked, the corners of his mouth twitching.

"Or a threesome?"

“…… Arka: What books have you been reading lately? "That's a question Shanks wanted to ask before, but for some reason, he put it aside.

"The domineering little prince, the wife of the Draconian, the hundredth wife of the Draconian......"

Arka read out the book he had read recently, with a blank face.

"Wait, what kind of book is this!?"

"All kinds of wall knocks, snapping books." It doesn't matter what Arka says, but it doesn't matter if you listen to people.

"Wait, where did this book come from?"

Nickles asked calmly.

“… Recently, the books of the predecessors have been missing, and you did it? Shanks, on the other hand, knew better, and he could hear some wails lately.

"Hmm, do you want to see it? Free rental. Alka maintained a faint expression on his face, stretched out his hand, and at some point, a book appeared in his hand, the cover was a black shadow bound by a red rope, and by looking at the figure, he knew that it was the shadow of a woman.

"......" Shanks was silent for a while, and then silently stepped forward, under the gaze of Nikelus, "You are actually this kind of person", took the book from Alka's hand, and threw it back directly, "Bang dong", the book fell into the sea.

Arka didn't stop it all, and after the people finished throwing it, she said calmly: "I've finished watching it." ”

"......" Shanks didn't know how to answer, he looked at Arka's indifferent expression, reached out and grabbed Arka's wrist and pulled her to the other end.

Nickleus, who was behind him, looked at their backs as they left, and instead of following, he touched his nose, but the next second the sound above his head made him stiffen.

"Oh, it turns out that the book has not been seen recently, and it was Arka who did it."

Reilly, who was upstairs, listened to all the words, he poked his head out, looked at Nickles below, and said, "Boy, take it easy, don't fall, tsk, those guys, they all said to read carefully, and the result is ......"

Reilly's voice grew farther and farther away, presumably to fix the guys who littered the books.

Nikelus, who was standing alone, smiled bitterly, and on the other side, Shanks pulled Arka to a more secluded place.

Shanks pulled Alka and pressed her against the wall, his hand pressed against the wall behind her ear, the two were a little close, under Alka's gaze, he swallowed, very nervous, not knowing what to say.

It's a stupid thing he did in a hot head, but it's the thing he wants to do the most.

"It's a wall-knock ......"

Shanks's voice was a little hoarse.

"And then it's ......"

Under Alka's gaze, Shanks bent down, their lips touching lightly.

"Kiss."

Arka looked at Shanks with his eyes open, and Shanks looked at Arka like this.

There was a nervous, cautious, and joyful look in his eyes, because this kiss?

"The book says you have to close your eyes when you kiss," Arka said, rubbing each other's lips with every word she spoke, and the tickling, tingling sensation made people stick out their tongues, gnaw and lick their teeth.

She reached out and wrapped her hand around Shanks's neck, pulling him down, closing her eyes at the same time, losing sight and becoming more sensitive to touch.

"And ......"

Afterwards, Shanks had a whole day of silly fun, and it wasn't until the ship arrived at the adventurous island that the smirk subsided a little.

And Bucky, who had been tormented by Shanks' smirking all day, finally relented, and he was really careful that he accidentally threw this stupid thing with pink bubbles into the sea.

I'm sure other seniors think the same way.

Tsk, the two of them appeared, it was a hand-in-hand dog abuse mode.

If it weren't for an Alcati Shanks, he would have been thrown into the sea in a burlap bag.

When they parted, each other's faces were tinted pink, Shanks rubbing his head against Alka's head, and he whispered with a happy smile and a low hoarseness.

He said: "Arka, we... Together, right? ”

"We haven't always... Together? ”

Arka didn't quite understand, and the gray-blue eyes were now misty, which made Shanks's throat tighten.

"That's different..."

Shanks leaned down, hugged Alka, rested his chin on Alka's shoulder, and his downward gaze made it difficult to see: "It's different, Alka, I'm ......"

“… Arka, can I make an appointment with you? Reserve a seat near you. ”

"When you want to find a partner, think about me first, right?"

“… Good. ”

So that's what made Shanks laugh for a day?

Tsk, it's really 'weak'.
