Seat of the Void

Chapter 129 Auction

After arriving at the Chambord Islands, Rocks gave everyone a three-day holiday, allowing them to wander around the Chambord Islands at will, and then took Ruth to the amusement park in the Chambord Islands.

In the amusement park, Rocks and Ruth had a good time relaxing and playing.

Under the leadership of Ruth, they played carousel, roller coaster, big pendulum and many other interesting projects.

"Hey, Rocks, there's a haunted house over there! Let's go and have a look."

After Ruth saw a huge haunted house, she ran over excitedly with Lockes.

After arriving at the entrance of the haunted house, Loxton immediately sensed an extremely familiar aura.

"Locus, you wait for me here, I'll go buy a ticket."

Ruth excitedly said something to Lockes, and ran to the ticket office.

Rocks nodded, then turned to look somewhere at the door of the haunted house.

A man in a black shirt, black capri pants, slippers, and black hair was sitting slumped on a bench.

Lockes smiled and walked towards the man slowly.

"Hey, I haven't seen you for more than two years. I didn't expect to meet you here."

Rocks walked up to the man and spoke directly.

Hearing someone talking to him, the man slightly opened his eyes and looked at Lockes.

"Isn't this the captain of the recently famous Lockes Pirates, Lockes? I didn't expect you to have arrived at the Chambord Islands."

The man looked at Lockes weakly and said lazily.

Lockes looked at the man with a lazy face and no heroic spirit when he first met, and suddenly became curious.

He was very curious, what happened in the past two years or so, that turned the man he was like back then into the decadent look he is now.

Rocks walked over to him and sat down on the bench.

"In two years, you have changed so much."

Rocks looked at the sky and said with emotion.

"Yeah, it's really changed a lot. In two years, you became a famous big pirate, but I became a small employee of an ordinary haunted house."

The man sighed softly.

"Anzi, I'm really curious, how did the former Lingwang become so decadent in two years."

"Huh? Spirit King? It's been a long time since I've been called that by someone."

When Anzi heard the word Lingwang, he laughed lightly at himself.

"There are no more spirit kings now, Rox brat. I should go to work."

Saying that, Anzi got up and left directly, and walked in through the back door of the haunted house unsteadily.

Lockes looked at Anzi who entered the haunted house, and became even more curious.

How did the man who was able to take Roger's blow hard two years ago, the man who looked heroic at the beginning, became what he is now.

"Hey, Rocks, why did you come here! Come on, I've already bought a ticket, let's go!"

Ruth ran over from one side, took Lockes' hand directly, and walked towards the gate of the haunted house.

Lockes temporarily put Anzi's affairs aside, and concentrated on visiting the haunted house with Ruth.

To be honest, this haunted house is really not very good, there is no scary atmosphere at all.

He didn't understand at all why Ruth hugged herself tightly in fear.

When they came out after visiting the haunted house, Ruth was carried out by Princess Lockes.

Before I knew it, a day passed while Lockes and Ruth were hanging out.

At night, Rocks and Ruth wandered around the food street.

When the two passed by a barbecue stand, Rocks saw Anzi again.

He was still sitting there alone with a decadent expression, drinking wine and eating barbecue.

Ruth followed Lockes' gaze and looked over.

"What a despondent man."

Ruth grabbed Lockes by the shoulder, trying to pull him away.

However, Lockes ignored Ruth, walked straight to Anzi, and sat opposite him.

Anzi raised his head and glanced at Lockes who was wearing casual clothes. He didn't say anything. He was still drinking his own wine and eating barbecue.

Ruth stomped her feet, walked over, and sat down beside Lockes, looking at Anzi with unfriendly eyes.

Rocks picked up a bunch of kebabs and ate them unceremoniously.

"Anzi, I'm curious. What kind of blow did a man like you encounter to become so decadent?"

Anzi raised his head and glanced at Lockes, then at Ruth.

"Hey, you say you, don't go shopping with your own woman well, why do you have to bother me, a decadent and sloppy uncle?"

Anzi sighed helplessly.

"Look, your woman is looking at me with a bad face. It's as if I interrupted your date."

Ruth had an expression on your face, and then picked up a skewer and ate it.

"Well, it tastes good."

After Ruth praised, she ignored the two men and kept killing the barbecue on the table.

"Hey, I bought that, please be polite to me!"

Anzi said helplessly.

"Well, Rox kid, do you want to hear a story?"

"All ears."

After receiving Lockes' affirmative answer, Anzi took a deep breath.

"Okay, then I'll tell you about it."

An Zi grabbed the wine bottle and took a few gulps.

Then slowly began to talk to Rocks about what happened in the past two years.

Two years ago, Anzi passed out because of his serious injuries after receiving Roger's sword and leaving.

And the ghost ship that lost his ability to control also fell from the sky into the sea.

In a storm, his boat was also smashed directly by the waves.

Perhaps the heavens did not want to take him in. He was caught in a coma by a shattered ship plank, so he did not sink into the sea.

In this way, after a long drift, Anzi came to a strange island in a coma, and was rescued by a girl from the sea.

After the girl's meticulous care, An Zi slowly woke up from the coma, and the wound also slowly recovered.

Because the boat was smashed, and the village was too poor, there was no boat that could let him go to sea, and because it was too poor, no merchant ships were willing to pass by.

Therefore, Anzi lived in the girl's house.

In this way, a year passed without knowing it.

An Zi, who was already used to drifting in the sea, unexpectedly felt a little bit of such a good feeling under the careful care of the girl.

And he suddenly discovered that he actually fell in love with that girl who is gentle every day, cheerful and smiling no matter what difficulties she faces.

Until one day, Anzi couldn't bear it anymore and confessed his love to the girl.

And the girl also fell in love with the handsome and heroic Anzi unknowingly during the year of getting along.

Of course, the two are together.

Originally, Anzi thought that he could spend the rest of his life happily with the girl like this, but the one night quarrel ended his fantasy.

One night, when Anzi and the girl were sitting at the door looking at the sea, Anzi suddenly told the girl about his previous experience as a pirate.

And when she heard that An Zi was actually a pirate in the past, the girl broke free from his embrace with great emotion.

The girl who used to smile no matter what difficulties she faced, lost her smile when she learned that he was once a pirate, and looked at Anzi with an angry and ferocious expression.

She roared wildly and cursed Anzi, then ran out crying loudly.

This was the first time An Zi saw the girl showing such a ferocious expression.

In the next few days, An Zi did not see the girl.

Until one day a week later, the villagers found the girl's body under a certain cliff.

After seeing the girl's body, Anzi went crazy.

It wasn't until that moment that An Zi realized that he was deeply in love with the girl.

In the end, the girl committed suicide because she learned her identity as a pirate.

At that moment, Anzi wished so much that he didn't tell the girl that he was a pirate that night.

After burying the girl, Anzi also learned about the girl's past from other villagers.

It turned out that the girl's parents were attacked by pirates when they went out to sea together, and they all died under the pirate's knife.

Therefore, girls are extremely resentful towards pirates.

Anyone who mentions pirates in front of the girl will make the girl lose her gentle smile and become hideous.

After seeing the girl's past, Anzi understood why the girl chose to commit suicide and end her own life.

For such a girl who hated pirates so much, she actually fell in love with a pirate and lived together, which broke her heart.

She couldn't forgive herself for falling in love with the pirate and living with the pirate for so long, so she directly chose to end her life.

After thinking about these things, An Zi undoubtedly regretted it.

He regretted why he was a pirate and why he told the girl that he was a pirate.

In this kind of self-blame, Anzi became more and more decadent.

He lost his former heroism and ambition, and completely became a sloppy and lazy uncle.

During an accidental docking of a merchant ship, he left the village that made him sad on a merchant ship and came to the Chambord Islands.

In this way, I lived here, and in order not to starve to death, I went to work in a haunted house.

At this point, Anzi didn't say anything more, he asked the boss to bring a few bottles of rum, and drank one by one.

After hearing Anzi's story, Lockes was also a little bit embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, Anzi would encounter such a bloody love story.

Rocks picked up a bottle of rum and touched Anzi.

"An Zi, I have to say, you are really pitiful."

After speaking, Lockes drank the wine in the bottle in one go.

"Hey, there is a big auction in Chambord Islands tomorrow, and there are still devil fruits for sale!"

Ruth had no interest in Anzi's bloody love story, he looked at a newspaper he had just bought from a little boy selling newspapers, and said in surprise.

Rocks was curious and took the newspaper over to take a look.

"It looks interesting. Let's go and see it together tomorrow. Anzi?"

"Oh, I'll forget it. I have to work tomorrow."

Anzi rejected Lockes' invitation, picked up a bottle of wine, went to the boss to pay the bill, then waved to Lockes and left.

Looking at the figure of Anzi going away, Lockes sighed a little.

"The world is really impermanent."

"Hmph, forget about that idiot! Lockes, let's go to the auction together tomorrow!"

"Well, let's go and see together tomorrow. I really look forward to seeing something interesting tomorrow."

Rocks looked at a certain headline in the corner of the newspaper, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

　Woohoo(┯_┯), the grades are getting worse and worse, is there something wrong?
