——————————

Off the coast of Kalrum!

After nearly three hours of pondering, and with the map of the continent in his hand, Arthur finally remembered this name buried in the depths of his memory.

Turning his head, Arthur looked at one of the crew members standing tremblingly behind him, and suddenly smiled.

"You're pirates?"

"yes, ah...... Ah no, we're just acting again...... Well. ”

The pirate leader in front of him was almost crying, looking at Arthur who was smiling lightly in front of him, he cursed in his heart for damn fate, how did they have the bad luck to meet a powerful magician.

"Anyway, the boat I was on was scared away by you."

Arthur pointed to a ship that had run away, a smile on his lips, and pulled out the wayfinding map he had purchased from the magic shop from the collector.

"It just so happens that those timid fellows don't even dare to go here...... Since you're a pirate, you should be a little more daring, right? ”

Still smiling, but Arthur's eyes revealed a hint of coldness.

If the pirate in front of him dared to refuse, then Arthur wouldn't mind having one more person feeding the sharks today.

"Yes, yes, we're bold!!"

Seeing Arthur's eyes, the pirates standing on the deck suddenly became agitated and hurriedly shouted in unison.

The pirate leader was about to burst into tears, and he looked at the location on Arthur's wayfinding map, and his face was sad.

"Master Magus...... This, here'......"

"Huh? Are you so timid? ”

"No, no, no...... I understand. ”

Swallowing hard, the pirate leader looked at Arthur's slightly cold gaze and didn't dare to say anything more.

Although the place where Arthur is going is very terrifying in their circulation, it is only a circulation, and it is obviously more than a step weaker than the terrifying magician in front of him.

If you go, you may die, and if you don't go, you will definitely be thrown down to feed the sharks.

Such a simple choice, only a fool would choose the wrong one.

The pirate leader immediately shouted loudly, beckoning his men, hoisting the sails, looking out, and helming, not daring to be careless, all of them were doing their duty in fear.

Hurry up and take this evil star there, and pray that he will leave like this, and everyone will be safe and sound, nothing will happen, how good.

That's what the pirate leader thinks now, and if someone who knows him hears it, he will definitely wonder if something is wrong with his ears.

When did the vicious pirates also want everyone to live together peacefully and be happy?

"I knew that pirates must be very courageous." Arthur's face suddenly turned cloudy, and he smiled at the pirates: "Come on, I'm very optimistic about you, maybe you can become the king of the pirates." ”

"Hmm......"

The pirate leader and the two high-ranking pirates were embarrassed, not knowing how to take Arthur's words.

Arthur didn't pay attention to them, but touched his chin and said to himself - "If you want to become One Piece, it's not enough for you to do this, first ...... Well, most importantly, you have to have a straw hat. ”

"Straw Hat?!" The pirates were even more confused.

"That's right, Straw Hat!" Arthur clapped his hands, looked at the pirate leader in front of him and smiled: "With the Straw Hat, you can change the name of your pirate group to the Straw Hat Pirates." ”

"Straw Hat Pirates?!" The pirates even more puzzled why they had changed the name of the pirates to something that sounded silly.

"Trust me, you'll definitely become One Piece after changing your name."

Arthur waved his hand, as if he had lost the appetite to continue teasing, and turned and walked towards the cabin inside.

There are a few more things to do before reaching the Tower of Paradise.

"There's no way I'm going to get into that place." Looking at the clothes on his body, Arthur shook his head.

The door slammed shut, and Arthur's figure disappeared from the eyes of the pirates.

"Whew~" It wasn't until Arthur couldn't be seen that the pirates breathed a sigh of relief, looked at each other, and saw a bitter look in each other's eyes.

"The Straw Hat Pirates?" The pirate leader muttered the name, and after a while, he pursed his lips disdainfully.

It's a fool to take such a name.

Time flies.

Three days later, the corsair had entered the waters off the coast of Calrum.

It has been five days since the departure from the port of Harugion.

Arthur sat in his cabin with a cup of coffee in his hand and his eyes unblinking at the ocean outside the window.

The wayfinding map in his hand showed that he was not far from the location of his target.

"If you want to attack the queen, you have to get ahead of Gerald."

Looking at the coffee cup in his hand, Arthur's expression was slightly dazed.

For three days, he deliberately did not sleep, nor did he use any drugs to maintain his body.

Of course, mental exhaustion combined with a slight seasickness made him look so weak at the moment.

"I'm really guilty of sending myself to slavery...... But in this way, I can be in the same identity as Elusa and strengthen the other person's sense of identity......"

Speaking of this, Arthur suddenly smiled bitterly and shook his head.

How, he felt more and more like a conspirator.

It seems that this is the instinct of this body...... It should be said that it is worthy of a body based on Lelouch?

"I don't like it...... But it's not annoying. ”

Taking a sip of the coffee in the cup, his mind cleared up a little again, Arthur looked at the empty cup in his hand, and various thoughts flickered quickly in his mind.

The reason why Elusa will never forget Gerald, in addition to the common hardships when she was a child, there are three things that are most important.

So, what he has to do now is to replace Gerald and do these three things to the young queen.

And the first thing is the act that planted the seeds of goodwill deep in the queen's heart.

Shucaleto ...... It's a beautiful name.

Raising his head and looking at the ocean outside the window, the corners of Arthur's mouth hooked slightly.

"The use of women to win wars is a disgrace that is not sanctioned by the royal way...... However, if you give it sincerely, then all this is completely different. ”

"Feelings are two-way, no one can easily play with it, if you really feel that you have won, maybe, in the end, it is actually yourself who is hurt."

"So, the most important thing I need to prepare right now is nothing else...... It's a sincere heart. ”

"If you don't give your sincerity, how can you want others to die for you?"

"This ...... It is the royal road of integrity. ”

"I'm not a conspirator, I'm a king!"

After saying the last sentence, Arthur closed his eyes, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth gradually spread.

The dark clouds in his heart dissipated, and the boy opened the window next to him, and then, with a light jump.

Puff~

The sound of falling water sounded.

The boy sank into the water, and the cold water lifted his spirits.

Opening his eyes and looking at the water around him, Arthur's fingers moved slightly, and a golden light suddenly enveloped his body.

The wayfinding map appeared in his hand.

"Well, please, take me to this place."

As the words fell, there was a soft 'tick' sound on his clothes, as if a switch had been turned on.

The whole person floated unscientifically on the surface of the sea, and the boy's body flowed slowly in the water, following the instructions of the wayfinding map, flowing towards that side.

Arthur, on the other hand, closed his eyes.

He didn't close his eyes for three days, he was really tired.

Take advantage of the last time and get a good night's sleep......
