The wind was still howling on the sea, but the air around it was almost frozen at this moment.

The boat was already hot and red, and it seemed that it was about to disintegrate and turn into ashes at any moment, and Owen, who was holding up his crimson right fist, still stared at the silent Laura below with a sneer, waiting for her answer.

There are two choices in front of him, the former is at least alive, and the latter is completely dead, Owen doesn't think that this usually unlikable sister will have other answers.

However, he seemed destined to be disappointed, and when Laura looked up again, the remaining panic in her eyes had completely subsided, and all that was left was calm and firm like a lake.

And Katakuri suddenly sighed lightly at this moment, his terrifying look of sight and hearing had already foreseen what kind of answer he would hear.

"I've figured it out, Brother Owen."

Laura's gaze looked directly at Owen, not dodging or evading: "I still don't think there's anything wrong with me, so instead of going back to the nations, I'd rather die here, in the fireworks at sea." ”

Speaking of this, she paused and smiled at Kataku on the other side: "Maybe in this way, I can be regarded as truly free and liberated......

"Huh?"

Hearing this answer, Owen was stunned at first, and then laughed angrily, his right hand, which was shining red, suddenly closed and clenched into a fist, "Ha! Sure enough, I still can't come to my senses, so in that case, I'll send you on my way first......"

But at the moment when he was about to activate his ability, a strong and powerful hand suddenly grabbed his wrist.

Owen turned his head in astonishment to find that it was Katakuri who had stopped him, but the latter did not look at him at the moment, but still looked at Laura below in silence.

"Freedom......"

After a flash of his eyes, Katakuri finally spoke slowly, "Is this kind of thing more important than your life?" ”

"Of course!"

As if she had figured out a lot of things, Laura's smile became brighter and calmer, and she said without hesitation: "No one can stop me, Mom can't do it, and Brother Katakuri can't do it!" ”

"Good."

Kataku's face was full of calmness, and he immediately saw him suddenly pull out the trident "Earth Dragon" behind him and raise it high, the cold light of the halberd tip was particularly dazzling at this moment.

"In that case, Lola ......"

With a low voice without any emotion, this huge trident, which was several meters long, suddenly stabbed straight down towards the small boat on the sea!

"If you want to get out, get out of here!"

Rumble!

In the deafening explosion, the sea suddenly lifted a huge column of water more than ten meters high, and the air waves swept away, so that the small boat, which was already almost disintegrated, was torn into countless pieces almost instantly, and the roller on the boat also fell into the sea and was submerged by the waves.

", Laura! The farther you go, the better, and from now on, don't say you're a member of the Charlotte family, and don't say you're your mother's daughter! ”

"My sister Lola, as of today, is dead!"

The earth dragon retracted, and the waves gradually calmed down.

A drenched Lola emerged from the sea, looking up at Katakuri with a grim expression, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Brother......

Her lips twitched for a moment, but she didn't say anything more, and after wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, she turned around and swam towards the Tempest.

…………

On the deck of the Tempest.

The crew members who witnessed this scene showed surprise, and Dramp woke up like a dream at this time, turning his head and looking at Xia no in dismay: "Captain, you knew that this would be the result?" ”

Just now, the moment Katakuri pulled out his trident, the cadres of the Wind Pirates were ready for battle, and they waited for Xia Nuo's order to come to the rescue, but they didn't expect that their captain not only did not react, but also stopped the helmsman from preparing to accelerate forward.

Coupled with the series of operations that directly let Lola get off the ship without saying a word, everyone didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in Xia Nuo's gourd, and it was only now that they gradually understood.

"Of course."

Xia Nuo smiled and looked at Katakuri on the dark clouds, who was standing silent at the moment, letting Owen next to him roar in disbelief, and did not continue to pursue Laura, "That guy has never been ruthless to his younger siblings......"

The distance of the Hurricane was not too far, only three or four hundred meters, and seeing that Laura was already swimming over, he didn't explain anything more, and let the crew lower the soft ladder and prepare to pick up people on board.

Lola grabbed the soft ladder and began to climb up, only then did the people on the deck notice that her eyes were red, apparently she had just cried.

In addition, the swimming just now seemed to consume a lot of her physical strength, and after climbing halfway, Laura's movements became obviously sluggish, gritting her teeth every time she kicked her legs, and the beads of sweat on her forehead rolled down.

"I'll go down and help her."

Seeing that Lola was about to run out of energy, Dramp sighed, took the initiative to jump off the boat, and dragged the soft ladder with one hand below, and held Laura's shoes with the other, and pushed it upwards with force.

"Thank you!"

Lola glanced at Rump gratefully, and then continued to try to climb up, but at this moment, a hot sensation suddenly came from the palm of the hand holding the nylon rope, she subconsciously let go of her hand, screamed and fell into the water, and Rump directly below was caught off guard, and was also smashed into the sea.

Poof, two splashes of water flew one after the other, and when Rump poked his head out of the sea, he saw that the soft ladder above his head had been completely ignited, and it was scattered into ashes.

What's going on?

Rump was a little confused, and Lola, who had his head out of the sea next to him, turned pale with shock when she saw this scene, and turned her head to look at the dark clouds in the distance.

Brother Owen, until now...... Will you not let me go?

Meanwhile.

On the deck of the Wind, Xia Nuo, who had always been in a relaxed mood to watch the show, finally lowered his arms around his chest at this moment, staring at the soft ladder that had been burned, and his eyes gradually cooled.

……

On the dark clouds.

Katakuri, who had already turned around and was absentmindedly thinking about how to go back to explain, noticed the slight movement in the distance, his face changed suddenly, and he turned his head to look at Owen beside him.

The latter withdrew his fist at this moment, but the crimson light in his pupils still did not dissipate, and it was obvious that it was Owen who activated his ability just now, and used the air heat to ignite the soft ladder on the side of the ship.

"Why?"

Katakuri frowned tightly, with a hint of displeasure in his tone: "Owen, I have obviously already said it, today's matter has been revealed, and if my mother blames it when I go back, I will bear it alone......"

"That's just your idea!"

Owen grinned, slammed his strong fists into his chest, and made a dull crashing sound, "As I said, traitors must not be forgiven!" Katakuri, I've always been unconditionally obedient and trusting you, and you've never let me down, but I'm sorry this time......"

"For the sake of the Charlotte family, for the sake of my mother's will, I have to do what I have to do!"
