There is no rain tonight, the stars are romantic.

That night, a banquet was held to celebrate the joining of the new partners, and also to allow the Three Heroes and the former CP9 people to get to know each other.

On the top floor of the "Spring Hotel", numerous neon light tubes are installed around it, which are sparkling and colorful, like fire trees and silver flowers. There is a round wine table in the middle of the empty top floor, balanced by twelve people. There is a classic mahogany chair, and the wine table is filled with all kinds of food and wine.

The person in the upper seat at this time is naturally Moria, and on the right are Perona, Absalom and Hogbark.

On the left are Rob Lucci, Kaku, Kalifa, Gabra, Bruno, Lion Natsutori, and Otonashi Owl;

Hogback is next to Otonashi Owl, and Dove Hadley is already on Rob Lucci's shoulders ready to eat.

Everyone was seated at this time, and they all looked at the host of the banquet, Moonlight Moria. Moria acted as the host, smiling at everyone, starting from the left, looking at everyone one by one, and finally picked up the He stood up after filling the goblet with red wine.

Everyone else also followed Moriah's actions, each picked up a wine glass and stood up. Pigeon Hadley also held a small wine glass.

"Let us cheer for the new partners to join us"

"cheers"

"Cheers"*N

tons~~

ton ton ton~~

After everyone drank it heartily, they removed the wine glasses.

Moria looked at everyone with smiles on their face. Whether it was the three heroes who were happy for the arrival of their new partners, or the former CP9 people who were happy for receiving shelter, they were all showing face to each other with happy faces at this time.

"Everyone, sit down"

He waved his hands for everyone to sit down. After they all sat down, Moriah also sat down and continued to speak.

"Today is a day worth remembering. Everyone here should remember this day."

"Because we meet here, this is fate's arrangement and a gift from fate."

"From this moment on, no matter how strange we were in the past, we are now acquaintances."

"No matter how far the future is, we will get to know each other slowly and never leave each other."

"There is no need to recall the past. We only need to grasp the present and look forward to the future."

"Don't be afraid, don't worry, don't be confused"

"I am here and I am your king"

"Here, with my body and mind, I swear to the endless sea that I will protect you with my life. I also hope that you can always protect my back."

Moriah raised his right thumb and pointed to his heart, with a heavy and loud voice, solemnly preaching his vow to everyone present. This is a necessary ritual. He is swearing to heaven to protect his new bond, this world. A few concerns.

"We will definitely protect the king's back"

Everyone responded to Moria's expectations in unison.

Moria smiled again. Although everyone here only knew each other's names, he believed that as time went by, the worldly care and concern that bound them would gradually become thicker and thicker. He did not expect anything extra. We can be intimate with each other now, but it will take time.

"Everyone is not familiar with each other, please introduce yourselves. We will be a family from now on." Moria looked at the lovely person on her right and said, "Perona, let's start with you, and then Proceed in order”

He put Rob Lucci in last, as the finale.

Being watched by everyone, Perona's round eyes were full of shyness. I don't know if it was because of shyness or alcohol. At this time, her face was red and full of shyness.

Like a kitten seeking the embrace of its owner when seeing a stranger, Perona immediately looked at Moria, but Moria was also looking at her with a smile, and her eyes also revealed encouragement.

Perona stood up and turned to look at the others. She was not a shy child, but she had never encountered such a situation before, so she flinched and was at a loss.At this time, he calmed down and his mischievous temper returned. He put one hand on his waist and made a scissor gesture with the other hand in front of his eyes. He tilted his little head and introduced himself.

"I am Princess Mononoke Perona, one of the Three Heroes"

"Currently in charge of finance, he is the commander of animal zombies and scary zombies, and he is also the class monitor of the first-year class taught by Master."

"Well, also, nice to meet you all."

"This ends my introduction, thank you all."

After Perona finished speaking, she held the hem of her skirt with both hands and bent down to pay respect to everyone as a conclusion.

Papa~~~

clap clap~~~

As Moria's applause sounded, everyone else followed the rhythm in time to express their gratitude.

"That's very good, Perona."

"Hehehehehehe~~~"

Perona heard the applause of the crowd and the host's praise, and returned to her seat happily.When the applause stopped, everyone looked at the next person, classmate Abu.

At this time, Absalom was also a little panicked. It was also the eldest girl sitting in a sedan chair. This was the first time she encountered such a scene. Facing the eyes of everyone, she stood up from her seat, trembling inexplicably.

However, his mind was flexible, and it didn’t matter if he didn’t know what to say. He just read it as written, so he couldn’t think of anything else at the moment and directly applied Perona’s template.

"I am Absalom, the 'King of the Cemetery', and I am also one of the Three Heroes."

"Currently a zombie soldier and zombie general commander"

“Nice to meet you all”

"This ends my introduction, thank you all."

clap~~

clap~~~~

clap~~~~

The applause was inexplicably louder than before, which surprised Mr. Abu. Could it be that he spoke too well?Suddenly he roared with joy!

"Hoo~ho~"

Absalom returned to his original position amidst the applause of the crowd, secretly praising himself for being "as smart as me" and getting through.

"Beast?" Kalifa raised her glasses and asked in confusion.

Everyone else also looked at Absalom. Although they made some guesses when they saw him, he didn't look like a fur tribe. Could he be a "half-fur man"?

"It's not a beast, it's been transformed. His body has been transformed by Dr. Hogback. His nose, mouth and jaw are those of a lion. He also has the skin of an elephant and the wild power of a bear and an orangutan."

Moria explained to everyone who was a little confused, and then spoke again.

"Dr. Hogback has great experience in transformation. If you have any ideas, you can contact him. However, I don't recommend it. You all have superhuman physiques, so there is no need."

"Remodeling or something? It's so rude. Forget it for a lady, it's too ugly."

Khalifa expressed her disdain and said that she was just a human being. She said that she wanted to continue to be a human being.

As for other macho men, they find it interesting, but only at an interesting level. For them, whose strength comes from practicing bit by bit, they feel that this kind of thing is useless. It is more practical to eat Devil Fruit directly.
