[One Piece] She comes from a private server

I don't know how long it took, but Sanji's mood slowly calmed down, and he was reluctant to let go of his embrace. It's so warm, the body temperature in my arms is so warm, even losing my grace and crying in front of a lady has become a less shameful thing. But I don't know if it was his imagination, but the weight in his arms gradually increased.

"Wait-" Sanji suddenly reacted and let go of his embrace, looking at Alicia leaning on his arm with her eyes closed, his nerves tensed, "Little Alicia?"

Sanji nervously rubbed Alicia's face with the back of his hand, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind - could he be injured? Still sick? If you look carefully, you can see that there is a new scar on the peak of her eyebrow. Is it really an injury?

The slight snoring and long breathing told Sanji that he was overthinking and that Alicia was just asleep. Sanji felt relieved, pulled the feather coat to cover her carefully, and picked her up.

"Are you asleep?... We can't stay here any longer. It will be troublesome if the guards find out."

"Do you believe me?"

Cake Castle, in the medical room on the third floor, Sanji looked at Reiju seriously after telling him exactly what he saw and heard on Bryn's balcony.

"Of course, you won't lie to me." Reiju agreed with Sanji's words and said that she actually had suspicions.

"I see..." Sanji's hands holding Alicia tightened unconsciously, "I didn't plan to get married in the first place but wanted to kill us. I thought that as long as I got married honestly, Luffy and the others would be saved. Wasn’t it true from the beginning? I thought that as long as I sacrificed myself, everything would be perfectly solved. What a wishful thinking! How naive I was..."

"...So, Sanji, what is that in your arms? A woman? Or a turkey?"

Sanji looked down at his arms and lowered his voice that had been gradually rising before.

"It's... a partner."

"Partner? Really?" Reiju observed Sanji's expression and the way he looked at Alicia, her eyebrows softened a little. "She's hurt?"

"No, she fell asleep. By the way, Reiju, I came to you not only to tell you Big Mom's conspiracy, but also to temporarily entrust her to you... I am not safe around me right now. You..." Sanji did not After confirming whether Reiju would agree, she stopped hesitantly.

"Okay." Reijiu agreed, "You can leave her here with me safely. In the same way, Sanji just followed Big Mom's plan and pretended not to know."

"What are you talking about? If you attend the tea party, you will die too, Reiju!"

"Huh? Are you worried about me?" Reiju laughed, "Don't think I'm grateful to you just because I helped you before. You can escape with the Straw Hats, Sanji."

"What if I escape Barati?!"

"Just wait until you run away to think about those things. If you stay here, everyone will die." In Reiju's opinion, the Kingdom of Jemal should have been destroyed long ago, but Sanji must not die. She firmly told the truth about Sanji's birth, "You are not a failure. You are a child born with emotions that your mother fought tooth and nail to protect. That's you, Sanji, so you are gentler than anyone else."

What Reiju said shocked and confused Sanji's brain. It turned out that he had been controlled by wrong perceptions all along. He was not a waste, nor was he a failure as Gaji and his emotionless brothers said. .

"I forgot to tell you that the bracelet has been arranged by me and will not explode. Now you have no reason not to leave the island, right?" Reijiu looked at her swaying brother and scolded, "Cheer up, Shan Heal! Take a good look at your important things! You will never meet such wonderful guys again in this life!"

"It's important..." Sanji, who was in a dilemma, wavered.

"Sleep so good..." Alicia squirmed and stretched, then suddenly opened her eyes and sat up from the sofa. "Ah! I completely forgot about Katakuri! It's over!"

"you're awake?"

"Ah?" Alicia followed the voice and looked towards the hospital bed, "Sanji's sister?"

"you know me?"

"Because curly eyebrows are easy to recognize." Alicia nodded her eyebrows and looked around, "Did Sanji send me here?"

"Yeah, but he's gone."

"Really? Then I have to leave quickly. Thank you, Sanji's sister."

"Are you from the Straw Hats? Katakuri... I remember he is Big Mom's second son? Why are you with him?"

"It's hard to describe. In short, it's because of him that I can stay in Wanguo without causing any commotion. I also need to rely on him to sneak into the wedding tomorrow."

"Ah, are you going to steal the marriage?"

"Huh?" Alicia looked at Reiju in confusion, "Although we don't want Sanji to marry Big Mom's daughter, it's too ugly to kidnap someone."

"I'm not asking your friends, I'm asking you, are you planning to steal your marriage?"

"..." Alicia blinked, "Me? There is no need to sneak into the wedding scene in a low-key manner if you want to steal a wedding. The job I assigned myself is to thwart the enemy if something unexpected happens to my partners."

"I always feel like you are pretending to be stupid on purpose." Reiju's eyes were unfathomable, "Do I have to ask you directly if you like my brother?"

"Excuse me...why do you ask?"

"Because Sanji seems to like you very much. Since you know that I am Sanji's sister, it is not surprising that I care about this."

"Ah, it's not what you think. Sanji treats all girls like that."

"No, it's different." Reijiu leaned on the bedside and looked at Alicia with a half-smile. "My idiot brother looks at you completely differently from other people. Although I don't know if he knows this, after all, he is very naive sometimes."

"Sanji is not naive." Alicia lowered her lips and picked up the wet feather coat that Sanji took off for her before leaving and put it on the back of the sofa. "That fool just thinks about others blindly and never thinks about himself. , that’s why you think he is naive.”

"Are you stupid?" Reijiu narrowed her eyes and exhaled, "I feel relieved."

"suddenly?"

"Ah, that's right. Because I know that the girl Sanji likes also likes him."

Alicia paused as she stood up, looking at Reiju at a loss for words.

"What's wrong? Am I right?"

"..." Alicia wanted to refute, but the other party was absolutely right, so she didn't know what excuse to use to refute. "Is it so easy to see? Is it obvious?"

"It's just a woman's intuition. You don't want Sanji to see it?"

"Well, Sanji is very important to me." Alicia nodded, shook off the rainwater from her coat and threw it into her backpack. She sat back on the sofa, clasped her hands and confessed, "Although I like Sanji, you also know that he has the virtue of jumping over to a lady regardless of seeing him. If I have expectations, I will be sad." , you will be disappointed, and your love will gradually turn into resentment. I don’t want that, either as a person I like or as a companion, I don’t want to lose him.”

"It seems there is another idiot here." Reijiu sighed in confusion. "It's the same as Sanji who is indecisive and hesitant."

"...I obviously thought carefully about it." Alicia was unconvinced. "I won't tell Sanji anyway. It's fine to just be partners."

Alicia stood up, took out the heart and put it into her backpack. At the same time, she took out several bottles of red medicine and placed them on Reiju's bed.

"I have to go, otherwise Katakuri will definitely cause trouble for me again. My captain should find you soon. Please hand over these bottles of medicine to me. By the way, tell him, no need. Worry about me, I will attend the wedding tea party smoothly, act according to the situation in secret, and cooperate with all their actions."

"Sanji will not show up to the wedding again."

"No, he will definitely go. Because that guy is gentler than anyone else. In order to protect his friends and... relatives, he will attend no matter what."

"Hey, wait a minute."

"Ok?"

"Sanji will not make you sad or disappoint you if he likes you. If you like him, why not try to believe him?"

"Please, do you think that Sanji likes me is completely groundless? Anyway, I'm leaving. Thanks, Sanji's sister. You can listen to me or help me deliver the medicine to my captain."

After Alicia finished speaking, she jumped up to the window with her silver-gray hair and quickly disappeared into the heavy rain.
