Drake's Sword Chapter 6 Misunderstanding caused by slimming fruit

On Marjorie's Pink Princess, Marjorie pulls out a mysterious box and gives it to Mark.

"What is this?" Mark asked, surprised, "not a bomb or something......"

"Don't worry, you've done me such a great favor today. Thank you you as it should be. Marjorie said.

Mark cautiously opened the box, only to see that there were about dozens of red fruits inside, larger than cherries but not as big as grapes. The whole fruit is very red and bright, and it feels like a water spirit. Mark carefully picked it up and said, "That's how you used this plastic surgery to slim down?"

"Yes! This is called 'slimming fruit'! I found it in a small country on the other side of the Japanese continent. Marjorie said.

"Yes, I know. It is said that there is a huge empire in the east of the Japanese continent, which seems to be called ...... What's it called......" Mark wanted to show off, but was momentarily stunned.

"It's called the 'Ming Empire'! These slimming fruits were obtained from a small vassal of the Zaiming Empire called 'Joseon.' Marjorie said.

"Is it fun over there?" Mark's face was a little uncomfortable, but he hadn't been there, although he had heard a lot about how endowed it was earlier, but he had never seen it with his own eyes.

"Well...... The first sense is that the Ming Empire is very large. Marjorie said.

"How much ...... that can be," Mark said dismissively.

"Let's put it this way, it will take at least half a month from the south to the north from the sea frontier of this country, which is basically equivalent to the distance from the Sun Continent to the Moon Continent!" Marjorie sighed: "The Ming Empire is really big......

Looking at Marjorie's face with envy, Mark really rarely saw Marjorie feel emotional, he was very stubborn in the past.

Mark suddenly remembered, "Then tell me the origin of this slimming fruit." ”

"Slimming fruit, then let's talk about North Korea, an interesting country. Marjorie said: "One of the characteristics of this country is that everyone looks very similar! No matter what they are born with, they will have plastic surgery when they grow up, and they have never seen plastic surgery." ”

"Isn't that extremely self-contained!" Mark said. But seeing Marjorie's clenched fists, he immediately felt that he had said something wrong, and immediately changed his words: "It's good to fix it, in order to be able to develop well in the future......"

"If I hadn't been cursed and became so fat, I wouldn't have lost weight...... You all look at me with tinted glasses!!" Marjorie said aggrieved.

"Yes, yes, it's a curse, but what about what happened? How did you find out that this thing can lose weight?" said Mark.

"Because when I was playing in North Korea, I found that many local Korean girls would visit their King every year, and whoever King liked would pull back to sleep, and when it was over, he would be rewarded with a magical tree species. The fruit that is produced is this slimming fruit. Regarded as a sacred object by the locals, no matter how much they eat every day, eating a slimming fruit after finishing is done to ensure that it will not grow meat and will become thinner. Marjorie said.

"I'm going to get a good night's sleep with the King and I'll be rewarded with this, and you're not going to ...... with their King," Mark smirked knowingly, "So, the King of North Korea is really making a lot of money." ”

"Die! Shut your crow's mouth! I didn't, I bought it locally. Marjorie said.

"And what did you buy it for?" said Mark.

"Beef!" Marjorie said that he was also a little incredulous, "Seriously, this country is too strange, as a vassal state of the Ming Empire, it is still poor to death, and the poor can't even afford to eat beef, and they will only eat beef once during the festival." ”

"Can't afford to eat beef?" Mark basically couldn't imagine, because many countries in England and France are normal things for eating beef, and it seems that even beef can't afford to eat it, and it seems that it is really a poor place.

"Yes, in their kingdom, people are very short and dressed very revealingly. Moreover, it is said that Joseon caught two or three pheasants from the Ming Empire and used them as holy relics. Marjorie said.

"Pheasant, poof, that Korea is really ......," Mark said speechlessly, "Then you tell me what the empire looks like." ”

"The Ming Empire...... I think it's pretty good, but they don't seem to like going to sea and just like to stay where they were born for the rest of their lives. Marjorie said.

"All my life, just in one place, not boring!" Mark and his gang have not had a home since they were children, they are wandering everywhere and have no fixed place, and making small money is the main purpose.

"I don't know, maybe it's a cultural difference. But then again, although they don't go to sea much, they are not bad at all. It is said that the empire has a neighbor called the island nation of the Rising Sun Empire. There have been several naval battles between the two countries!" Marjorie said.

"It's certain that the island nation has a strong navy, and England is an example. Mark said.

"Yes, the people of the Rising Sun Empire are different, they love war, they are aggressive, and they often wage war. Marjorie said.

"I like this country, and if you don't take advantage of it, that's a fool!" Mark said.

"But it is said that the Rising Sun Empire is plundering everywhere it goes, and it can be said that the entire empire is a country of pirates. Marjorie said.

"That's no way, it's normal, but then again, I'm getting more and more fond of the Rising Sun Empire. Pirate Nation, I like it, hehe. Mark said.

"What else do you like?"

But Diana's voice spoke......

On the Pink Princess, Diana had just arrived, and before she heard the previous content, she heard the latter sentence I like, so she angrily walked into the captain's room and said sourly, "What else do you like?"

I saw Diana looking at Marjorie on the other side vigilantly, although she felt a little older than her age, but that unique mature temperament and perfect body were definitely two capital temptations.

At this moment, Mark hurriedly said haha: "Isn't this a matter of inquiring about the scabbard, I just happened to meet an old acquaintance...... Let me introduce you to you, this is Marjorie. is the captain of this ship. ”

"Yo...... Remember your mission!, then you can inquire about the quilt, and run to someone's ship, I'm afraid you have to do something else at night!" Diana said sourly.

The vinegar smell was not reduced, Mark had no choice but to pull Diana out of the captain's room and come outside, and hurriedly pretended to say: "I almost inquired about it just now, what are you doing here?"

"Don't interrupt! Such a beautiful woman, why didn't you say it before, before we dated, these women you have to make it clear!" Diana was still thinking about what had just happened, which was obviously still in a state of jealousy.

"Really, really, really just ordinary friends, I met and met by chance. It's really not what you think. Mark explains.

"Explanation is disguise, disguise is truth!" Diana said lightly.

"Okay, let's go back then, don't be embarrassed here!" Mark didn't know how to persuade him, and thought he might as well go back.

"Why, you were chatting just now, what are you doing now coming out to find me, looking for someone!" Diana said this, but this is clearly the opposite, where do you dare to leave. I had to continue to accompany the smiling face.

However, I don't know if Diana is really angry, Mark has no choice but to take the scabbard and jump off the Pink Princess. I want to go back to the Ghost by myself, and I hope that this big girl Diana can follow up by herself.

But before Mark could take two steps, two strong men ran over angrily with knives. The two men shouted angrily, "Hey, boy, where did you get the scabbard in your hand!"

Mark looked at it indifferently and said, "Picked it up." ”

"Are you a pirate?" asked one of the brawny men.

"yes, I'm a pirate, and I picked up the scabbard, what can you do to me?" Mark said even more dismissively.

"Pirate, cut him!" said two strong men at once.

"Stop!, who dares to touch him!" it was Diana who spoke.
