Pirate's Freedom

Of course, the treasure is something that comes later.

At the moment, the first thing to do is to complete Ila's life goal. After a period of sharpening their skills in battle, the four girls came to the square again when the dance competition was about to begin.

At this moment, the place was already crowded with all kinds of strange contestants and spectators.

"Oh oh oh oh~ hum hum hum ~"

A small whale, flapping its fins and swaying, was inconspicuous among them.

Besides her, there are——

"Karina, have you signed up too?"

Nami, who had half-long orange hair tied into a ponytail and wore a colorful suit that looked like it was made of banknotes, was very heroic. She looked at Karina, who had disappeared for a moment and changed clothes somewhere. Surprised.

"Of course, the cross-dressing dance competition has huge prizes!"

The baggy black trousers are a little baggy, and the chest of the same black T-shirt is printed with the reward order of Charlotte Lingling when she was young. The necklace around her neck has a disc with the word "food" hanging on it. The girl wearing a gray peaked cap answered with a smile. .

"Ah...is it..."

On the top of the metal helmet is a lifelike seagull with open wings; the blue cloak is printed with a strange mix of the World Government and the Navy logo; a black belt with a large round golden badge, and a white uniform, brown boots and long gloves.

Nokigao, who dressed herself up as [Sea Warrior Sora], was a little frustrated because so far, she had found three [Sora] in the square.

"A lot?! Hey! Karina! How many are there?"

Nami suddenly became energetic.

……

Only one ship occupied three berths. Like a creeping beast, the huge black ship slowly sailed into the port.

The Billionaire not far away looked like a kitten next to a tiger.

A gorgeous red carpet stretched across the entire port from the shore to the exit.

At this time, all the idle people had been cleared away, and the enthusiastic crowd was blocked by rows of guards, but they still tried their best to look in.

The ports, towns, and managers of the island, including the mayor of Glass Bead Island's city hall, lined up neatly and were waiting on the shore early.

on the ship.

A garden-style nursery built specifically for phone bugs.

Through the large crystal clear crystal, bright light shines down.

Among the colorful flowers, there is a mechanism hidden behind the golden carvings, and the spray of water mist reflects rainbows in mid-air.

The phone bugs of different sizes and shapes all showed comfortable expressions and crawled slowly and happily.

Among the flowers, a calm man sat on a stone chair.

He dialed a number and waited silently.

……

Time passed bit by bit, and the crowd gathered in the square became slightly crowded, but the center stage was still empty.

"The time has come, why don't you start quickly!"

Karina was already a little impatient. This anxious mood seemed to be contagious, and a slight sound rippled through the crowd.

And right now.

"Everyone! Everyone!!"

Stumbling onto the stage, the host was so excited that he could hardly hold the microphone.

"... Let's all cheer together! This dance competition is unprecedented! There will be an unprecedented opening ceremony!!"

"superstar--!!"

A high-pitched voice echoed in the air.

"Gilder——!!"

"Mr. Tezzolo will be on hand to sing for the audience and contestants!!!"

"..."

There was a brief silence at first, then a burst of whispers. The whispers became louder and louder, and after a while they turned into a roar.

"How could?! That's Tezzolo! How could he appear here?!"

Karina looked surprised.

"This is just a small game! Why is it worth his coming here in person?!"

"superstar?"

Ila tilted to the left and asked in confusion.

"what is that?"

"Uh... you'll know when the time comes."

Karina was vague and got to the point.

"What's more important is another identity. He is a senior executive of the Parest Consortium. He is a real big shot!"

"Parest Consortium?"

The three little girls all asked questions.

"Don't you even know [Parest]?!"

As if meeting them for the first time, Karina turned around and said in disbelief.

"Where in the country are you from?!"

……

After a long wait, the call was finally answered.

"Why do you need me to come here, and these unplanned things...you can tell me, I mean...if I am qualified to know."

"The time has not yet come, Tezzolo."

A slightly smiling voice said.

"..."

After a moment of silence, the man whispered.

"I understand, Mr. Holman."

"It's that simple, Tezzolo."

The smile in his voice became more and more obvious.

"Come on! Show your charm and give everyone here a pleasant and unforgettable experience!"

"Then you'll get what you want."

"Your order is my mission."

The man replied.

……

On the square, music has started playing.

Immediately, a bright and clear sound came like still water flowing deep.

"I want you to know~"

【Hope you can know~】

On the large screen that was temporarily set up, the deep and clear eyebrows and the jade-carved hair were reflected.

"That is--!!"

Until then, those doubts finally disappeared.

"It's really a big star - Gilder Tezzolo!!!"

The moment of first glance——

"I'mamirrorball~"

【I am like a mirror ball~】

A bright smile that is as mysterious as it is puzzling and full of charm, that one cannot bear to refuse but dare not look at, appears in front of everyone's eyes.

"I'llshowyoueveryversionofyourselftonight~"

【I want you to see every side of yourself tonight~】

Rough yet light, reckless yet sharp, calm yet detached, dark yet bright, just as light must be accompanied by darkness, a series of seemingly contradictory qualities coexist harmoniously in him.

"I'll get you out on the floor~"

【I'll put you on the dance floor~】

Natural and uncontrollable.

“Shimmeringbeautiful~”

【Glittering~charming and beautiful~】

This man simply stood there, and a heart-wrenching and fascinating tension was about to burst out of his body.

"AndwhenIbreakit'sinamillionpieces~"

【When I break~it will be countless pieces~】

The singing lingered in my ears for a long time, and something unusually beautiful and pleasant penetrated deep into my heart from my ears.

"Hush~"

【Secretly~】

It was clear that crowds were pouring into the square from all directions like a raging tide, but they all invariably slowed down their steps and slowed down their breathing.

"Whennooneisaround,mydear~"

【Dear~when no one is around~】

After a brief pause, he picked up the microphone on the stand.

The index finger and middle finger of his right hand were brought together next to his forehead, and the man waved them downward gently, pointing sideways at the mountains and seas of people in front of him.

"Shiningjustforyou~"

【Just shine for you~】

"Oh oh oh oh oh oh--"

The crowd rolled up into huge waves, and their shouts reached into the sky.

"Gilder—Tezolo—!!!"

"Ira!! Didn't you ask me what a big star is!!"

Despite being so close, Karina still had to lie down and shout in Ila's ear to make her voice heard.

"See it!! This is it!!!"
