[One Piece]Walking with the Sea

When does a person die? Is it when his heart is shot through? Is it when you have an incurable disease? Was it when he drank the poisonous mushroom soup? No, it’s the time when the world has forgotten it.

Vivian opened the door gently and saw Riley sitting on a chair with many empty wine bottles on the ground. Hearing the sound of pushing the door, he immediately turned his head, and his fierce eyes like a leopard immediately shot at Vivian, scaring Vivian to the point where he almost didn't even dare to enter.

"Mr. Reilly..." Vivian yelled bravely, but received no response. Vivian had no choice but to close the door and walk over, and stopped seven steps away from Reilly anxiously.

Lei Li raised his brows and sneered: "What? Have you been away from me for so long, have you become estranged from me? Standing so far away."

Hearing Rayleigh's cold tone, Vivian's eyelids jumped wildly. With a grimace, she walked to the chair in front of Rayleigh that looked like it was specially prepared for her, sat down on it, and then faced Rayleigh face to face.

However, Rayleigh didn't speak anymore, he just kept staring at her with eyes that Vivian couldn't understand, neither smiling nor moving, making the atmosphere at this time depressing and dangerous. Vivian gritted her teeth and whispered against Reilly's terrifying eyes: "Yes, I'm sorry, Mr. Reilly, I shouldn't have sneaked out alone without telling you."

Although she had already apologized to Mr. Reilly on the phone when they were in Nanhai, Mr. Reilly didn't seem to blame her much... But Mr. Reilly is really terrible now, so she should apologize again! !

Reilly still didn't speak. Vivian was almost frightened to tears. She lowered her head and took Reilly's arm and shook it gently, "Mr. Reilly, I really know I was wrong. I swear I will listen to you in the future." !”

Hearing this, Rayleigh finally made a move. He looked at Vivian with a half-smile, "Oh? Are you sure you can listen to my words in the future?"

"Yeah! I'm sure!" Seeing that Lei Li's tone was getting better, how dare Vivian say no.

"But let's avoid it." Rayleigh took out his silver wine bottle and took a sip. "Now that certain little guy has grown up and has his own ideas, he won't even listen to what I say."

"Listen! I will definitely listen! Mr. Reilly, please don't be angry..." Vivian looked at Reilly pitifully.

"I told you, right? Vivian." Reilly met Vivian's confused gaze and said calmly: "As long as you feel that you have a clear conscience and you can bear the consequences of the decision you make, then That’s it, you don’t have to listen to me, you can have your own ideas, and when there are differences between your own ideas and mine, firmly choose the idea that you think is right. I won’t blame you.”

Vivian looked blankly at Reilly, who had a serious expression.

Looking at Vivian like this, Reilly sighed deeply, thought for a moment, and asked, "Okay, Vivian, what are you going to do in the future?"

"What?" Vivian didn't understand what Rayleigh meant.

"You can't stay with me in the Chambord Islands for the rest of your life, right? You have to see how vast the outside world is."

"Wouldn't it be better to stay by Mr. Reilly's side for the rest of my life..." Vivian asked. She always subconsciously wanted to stay with familiar people, and never wanted to think about what she would do if there were no familiar people around her. How about it.

"But, aren't you looking for some gem vines, glowing flowers, or golden beaches? If you are not willing to look for it yourself, then who can help you find it?"

Vivian subconsciously looked at Rayleigh, but Rayleigh chuckled and shook his head: "I won't take you to find it, Vivian, I already plan to retire here!"

Looking at Vivian's confused look, Rayleigh still couldn't bear it down: "Didn't Shanks plan to form a pirate group to continue his adventure? If that doesn't work, you can go find him and sail with him. .”

"Shanks...?" Vivian then remembered that Shanks had indeed invited her to take an adventure with him, but at that time she was immersed in the disbandment of the pirate group, and subconsciously wanted to stay with the one she trusted the most. Reilly, so he declined Shanks' invitation.

Shanks... would he still want her on the ship?

"...Or, how about you build a pirate group yourself?" Rayleigh touched Vivian's head, "Get to know those partners who you can trust enough, and then invite them to sail with you. Vivian's words , I believe you can do it, right?!"

"Can I?" Vivian imagined in her heart, but no matter how she imagined, she could not imagine the scene where she found her friends and invited them on board.

Is it like Roger said "Hey! I think you are very pleasing to the eye, how about joining my pirate team"? Or "be my son" like Whitebeard? Or is it Shanks's "Vivian, can you come on my ship"?

Vivian still hadn't figured it out until she finished dinner and went back to her room to sleep.

On the third day after returning to the Shampoo Islands, Vivian accidentally rescued a pair of sisters who were being caught by human traffickers and intended to be sent to a human auction house.

"Thank you, thank you for saving me and Monet!!" The little girl, about eight years old, knelt on the ground and wanted to kowtow to Vivian. Vivian was so frightened that he immediately helped her up, "I just took it easy... Well, are you okay?"

"Although it's easy for you, for Monet and I... it's a kindness that we can't repay no matter what!" If she hadn't been rescued today and been taken into the population auction house, then she and Monet would have Definitely... The little girl held the hand of the girl she named Monet tightly and looked at her: "Can you tell me your name?"

"Okay, okay, my name is Vivian."

"Vivian... I remember! My name is Sugar, I am eight years old this year, and this child is called Monet, he is four years old. Thank you again for your help!!" Sugar stared at her and Monet seriously. The savior said word for word: "I am a childlike fruit capable person. If you need my help in the future, Sugar will definitely do my best to help you!"

"Also, there's Monet." Little Monet hid behind Shatang and looked at Vivian timidly, but she still knew that it was the beautiful sister in front of her who saved her and Shatang.

"A person with childlike fruit ability?" Vivian didn't understand what this ability meant. She had only seen Bucky's ability to split the fruit into pieces.

"I can turn anyone I come in contact into into a toy, and at the same time... the moment they turn into a toy, everyone who knows them will completely forget that they exist."

Vivian's eyes widened in surprise: "So powerful?!"

Seeing her surprised look, Sugar touched his head in embarrassment: "But it doesn't seem to be of any use. I have to contact the opponent personally. I am very weak and can't get close to the enemy at all." Otherwise, Nor would she and Monet...

"But it's still so awesome, being forgotten by everyone..."

At this moment, Monet's stomach suddenly growled, and Vivian and Sugar were stunned. Sugar was a little embarrassed, Vivian smiled, "You guys are hungry, I still have some Baileys, I'll treat you to a meal!"

After dinner with Sugar and Monet, Vivian paid for a room in the hotel for them, and told them not to hang around outside at will. If something happened, they could go to "Xia Qi's rip-off bar in District 13" "Look for her.

Originally, Vivian planned to take Monet and Sugar back to the bar, but Sugar said that it was not safe for her and Monet to stay here, and it would also cause trouble to her, so she insisted on leaving and said that she was able to bring them back. Live safely with Monet. Vivian couldn't keep them, so she could only give them all the Baileys she had on her, and found the caravan that sent her to Shampoo for them, and then watched the sisters leave.

But Sugar is only eight years old, how can she live with four-year-old Monet? Vivian was very worried, but she couldn't resist the stubborn Sugar.

Sugar seems to be very independent and exudes a maturity that is different from her age. Maybe she really has a way.

Vivian looked at the merchant ship gradually moving away and thought, hoping they could still meet.
