Compared to the battle between Thor and Urki, the battle between Chloe and Sachara is much smaller.

Chloe's weapon is a cat's claw like a blade, which is extremely sharp.

Chloe's breathing was a little confused, and his opponent was an experienced master.

Sachara, whose parents died at the hands of pirates, served in the army for more than ten years as an adult, and then experienced some shady insiders, and he resolutely left the navy.

After wandering in the Western Sea for several years, he also had his own pirate group, and later attracted to Urki.

The two were people who didn't talk much, and since the beginning of the battle, the two haven't said a word.

"Shave!"

Sachara's speed was abrupt. It was raised a notch, and he came behind Chloe in an instant and slashed it with a knife.

At the same time, Chloe's footsteps, which had been prepared for a long time, also became brisk, as if dancing some kind of strange dance, and disappeared in place silently.

"Did it appear? Silent steps. ”

Thor sat on a reef not far away and took a sip of his wine. As early as when he was training Chloe, he found that Chloe would use a kind of "shaving" pace similar to the "shaving" in the Navy Six, which was extremely fast and silent.

A knife slashed the air, and the experienced Sachara didn't turn his head back, and it was a knife that changed hands.

This knife just collided with the "cat's claw" behind him.

Chloe chuckled twice and disappeared in an eerie silent stride again.

Sachara snorted coldly, and also used "shaving" to disappear.

The two men turned into two black shadows, chasing each other on the battlefield, and with every contact, there was a splash of fire from the collision of weapons.

It took more than ten collisions before the figures of the two reappeared.

Chloe gasped, a wound in his chest that was bleeding profusely.

Sachara said the first sentence since the two fought with a cold expression, "It's useless, you can keep up with me at any time, but you don't have the defensive ability of "Iron", and if you continue to fight, you are not my opponent." ”

"Not necessarily." Chloe sneered, didn't even look at the injury in his chest, and used the silent step again to disappear.

Sachara, whose eyes were constantly rolling, had already locked on Chloe's movements, snorted coldly, and stood in place, intending to win the victory by exchanging injuries for injuries.

This trick had just been tried, and he just saw that Chloe didn't have too strong defensive ability.

As long as he resists Chloe's blow, when Chloe's attack instantly reveals a flaw, it is the time when he will decide the winner with one blow.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his old-fashioned face.

Chloe appeared in front of him, claws crossed, slashing at his chest.

The figures of the two crossed and stood back to back.

Blood slipped from Chloe's cat's paws.

Burst~

Sachara's body suddenly stiffened, the clothes on his chest instantly shredded, and blood spurted from a terrifying wound like a fishing net.

Sachara, who couldn't believe this ending, fell in the rain of blood.

He never imagined that the piece of iron that he had always been proud of would be broken by Chloe's blow.

"In the face of the armed color, your iron is a joke."

Chloe pushed his glasses with the palm of his hand.

If it weren't for Sacharato's desire to use this "injury for injury" approach, he might still have a hard fight.

"Good job~"

A flask flew over, and Chloe hurriedly caught it.

Thor slowly walked over to Sachara's side, glanced at it, and then withdrew his gaze.

"In the future, remember not to hide too much, when you meet some honest people, you won't even have time to play your hole cards."

The so-called honest person is a person who does his best as soon as he comes up, does not leave a back hand and does not leave a way for the opponent to live.

Chloe smiled and nodded, he naturally knew that it was about him using the armed color domineering last.

He had his own opinion on this, but Thor wasn't wrong, so he just nodded.

Thor didn't bother with these little things, rubbed his neck, and said as he walked, "Inform the pirates at the docks to come and collect people, remember to let them bring all their belongings." ”

Chloe, who was stunned for a while, said puzzledly, "Captain, just throw them into the sea and live and die, why do you want them to "ransom people", although we are short of money, but we are not short to this point." ”

Thor turned to glare at him and said, "You know what, it's effortless to fight, right?" If it's too good for them, then doesn't everyone want to come and test the water? It's okay if they want to come, welcome welcome, but this labor cost is indispensable. ”

Chloe, who suddenly came to his senses, nodded helplessly.

"Damn, this class of grandsons just can't see Lao Tzu idle, remember to take the money and then send them off with a cannon."

Thor walked away with a long knife and swearing.

…………………

As Thor had ordered, a group of weak-legged pirates rushed to the beach and found Urki lying on his back on the sand.

This man, who is like a chicken in soup, is still unconscious.

The pirates were puzzled as to why the more courageous captain had lost to Thor.

According to their analysis, although this battle was extremely tragic, shouldn't it be their own captain who went back to them in the end?

How could it be the man in black who behaved like a gentleman, but his eyes were full of murder.

Sachara's situation was much better than that of Urki, and he was awake when they found him, sitting alone on the seashore in a daze, presumably not recovering from his defeat.

After learning that she needed to hand over all the belongings on the ship, Sachara nodded helplessly.

In that case, it was already a great gift to be able to live.

…………………………

Back at the palace, Sol meets with an unexpected person.

Francis.

This pawn, who was once used by the previous king, was supposed to be a young man who should have lived his life carefully, but he came to see Thor.

Thor, who couldn't guess the reason for it for a while, agreed to see him.

"See His Majesty the King."

Francis knelt in front of Thor, who motioned for him to get up.

When I saw this boy again, I found that he was different from before.

If there's really anything to say, it's maturity.

"Lord Ghost King, I came today to say goodbye to you, I have already decided, I want to set sail!"

Francis said loudly.

"Oh?"

Thor was taken aback, then smiled and said, "Going to be a navy?" ”

Francis shook his head and said seriously, "Lord Thor, I already know that my father served on your ship, and I am proud of him. That's why I'm not going to join the army, I'm going to be a pirate and find my partner like my father! ”

"It's a good idea, have you really decided it? Once out at sea, there is no turning back. ”

Saul reminded.

Francis nodded firmly in his eyes, "It's decided, I thought about it a lot." I understand that now I am not qualified to get on your ship. However, I beg you to lend me your flag, I want to be a part of your big ship regiment and want to carry your name on this sea! ”

Thor was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.

He never thought that he would have a large group of ships.

It's just the beginning, but it's a good start.

Francis left with a small package, and Thor gave him a boat, which was not large.

But according to Saul, this is just a farewell gift, and in the future, he will find many partners, and then change to a big ship.

Standing on top of the palace, Thor watched as a ship in the harbor hoisted its sails and went away with the wind.

He was like this back then, he had a small boat that he had saved for a long time to buy, and he was slaughtered by the boss. The ship was much smaller than the one he gave to Francis.

And the small boat that had been with him for more than half a year was sunk by the Navy when he rescued Lin.

Later, the two pooled money to hire someone to build the first ghost ship, and spent all their savings.

Later, with Yukui on board, the current 100-meter-long ship was changed to the Chambord Islands.

Now he is stronger and his team is bigger.

You will never be overjoyed by the increase in your bounty by 10 million, and you will never worry about being pursued by a vice admiral one day.

It's just that the feeling I had back then is gone......

It wasn't until the ship had disappeared for a long time that Thor regained his mind and returned to the palace.

Looking at the extravagant palace, Thor felt lost for no reason.

"What's wrong?"

Lynn hugged Thor from behind and leaned gently on his back.

Thor took Linhuan's hand around his waist and said, "Let's go to the cherry blossom courtyard and have a look, okay?" ”

"Hmm."

Lynn replied softly.

……………………

Thor, who had taken off his mask and crown, took Lynn's hand and the two strolled down the street.

"Remember here?"

Lin asked, pointing to the plaza ahead.

"Remember, how can you forget?"

Thor rubbed Lynn's head, this was the place where Sabo helped them take pictures when they first arrived.

It was here that they met Francis, who had been instructed to approach him.

More than a year has passed in the blink of an eye, the revolutionary army has long been driven out, the gangs have been extinguished, Saul has become king, and Francis has gone to sea.

"Remember that picture? At that time, the morning dew had only reached the position of my waist, and now it is as high as my chest, and it grows so fast~"

Lynn gestured at the position of her chest, and it felt wrong, and raised it a little more.

Thor smiled and said, "She was originally a big girl, but Chloe's medicine made her smaller, and the sequelae have been slowly lifted over the past year, and the original medicine has also failed, it must have grown very quickly, and it is estimated that you will be taller in another year." ”

"Not necessarily, I think she's as high as my chin at most, a woman's intuition."

Lynn made a mischievous gesture with one eye closed.

Thor smiled.

"She's not so clingy now, and even Minno sometimes clearly feels that she doesn't know how to face this big girl."

Lynn covered her mouth and laughed.

"You say, will Minno and Morning Dew be together?"

Thor suddenly smirked.

"How come, Minno has always treated her as his daughter, okay? The embarrassment now is just that the morning dew grows too fast all of a sudden. It's like a little girl, when she was young, her father hugged her every day, and when she suddenly grew to more than ten years old, her father wouldn't hold it. But there is no shortage of fatherly love. ”

Lynn gave Thor a blank look, blaming him for thinking a little bit of a day.

The Ghost Face Ship hadn't sailed for more than a year, and there was no one else on board except for a few pirates who stayed behind and maintained it.

Seeing Thor return, a few pirates sitting on the deck playing cards and drinking were a little at a loss.

Thor shook his head and smiled, "Feel free, I'll just come back and have a look." Great work. ”

A few pirates who had lost their cards and stood in a row grabbed the back of their heads and laughed awkwardly.

In the cherry blossom courtyard, there is less water in the pond, and the cherry blossom trees are still in full bloom.

This ancient tree seems to bloom all year round, but there are fewer flowers in winter.

Back in the cherry blossom courtyard, Lin found a bucket towel and wiped down a piece of their residence.

Thor fills up the pond with water.

It wasn't until dusk that Rin, who was standing at the door of the room, breathed a sigh of relief when she looked at the spotless room.

"Thor, shall we stay here tonight?" Lynn blushed slightly, this is the real home of the two.

It's much warmer than the palace, and the palace can't compare to it.

"Thor?"

Lin, who hadn't heard an answer for a long time, turned her head in confusion.

In the afterglow of dusk, Thor looked at her gently, and his body dissipated little by little......

A panicked Lynn rushed over to hug him, but she threw herself into the air.

Lynn, who was sitting on the grass, could only watch as a little light slowly rose into the air, and Thor's whisper came from her ears.

"I'm sorry, sister......"

Tears welled up in Lynn and she finally cried out heartbreakingly............
