[One Piece]Nix likes idiots

Sure enough, it couldn't go that smoothly.

Nyx looked at the setting sun that was about to sink into the sea.

Although they set off before dawn, sailing almost straight in the direction guided by the life card, even lunch was hasty.

But still no trace of the Redfors was found.

"Don't worry, that guy won't die so easily." Mihawk stood up from the chair, "Let's find a place to stay first."

Nyx knew Mihawk was right. If you want to find a person in the second half of the Grand Line whose whereabouts are elusive and who may be moving at any time, even with the guidance of a life card, it is by no means an easy task.

If you can’t find it today, then tomorrow.

If you can’t find it tomorrow, then the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, or even the day after tomorrow.

After so many years of perseverance, she doesn't mind...

……

Saying you don't mind is a lie.

She wanted to see him right away.

Nyx closed her eyes and let the boring thoughts out of her mind as she breathed. She straightened her hair that was messed up by the sea breeze, and straightened her mood as she moved.

"I'm sorry, please accompany me to run so far."

"It doesn't matter, it's just a way to kill time. Besides, I got paid."

I don’t know how she brought so many things to the castle.

This morning, Mihawk woke up early as usual and found that Nyx had already prepared breakfast. In addition, she also laid out boxes and boxes of tool maintenance materials that filled half of the room, as well as various types of red wine that looked very valuable at first sight. He almost thought he had sleepwalked somewhere other than the castle where he had lived for more than a year.

Thinking of this, Mihawk took a very responsible look at the direction of the life card.

"There is a small island ahead. Let's spend the night there tonight."

It's just an ordinary summer island, at least it looks ordinary. On the coast where they landed, there was only a deserted beach connected to the woods.

Nyx jumped out of the coffin boat first and watched Mihawk park the boat.

There was a faint movement in the woods.

The sound of footsteps on fallen leaves, the rustling of grass, the laughter of children.

Nyx put her hood back on and looked in the direction of the sound.

Soon, two little carrot heads emerged from the woods - an impatient boy and a panting girl.

Boy: "You run so slowly! You told me to come alone!"

Girl: "But I also want to prepare a gift for that adult!"

Boy: "You must be trying to pick up those useless broken shells again! I'm here to catch lobsters!"

Girl: "What's wrong with the shell! The shell is so beautiful! Adults will definitely not dislike it!"

Boy: "Anyway, don't get in my way!"

Girl: "You just don't get in my way!"

The noisy two looked at each other, then grunted and turned away from each other.

"Ah!" Turning around, the girl discovered two uninvited guests on the beach. She pulled the boy's clothes in fear and motioned the boy to look in the direction of Nyx and Mihawk.

The boy guarded the girl behind him vigilantly and asked loudly: "Who are you? Pirates? Do you want to rob us? I'm warning you, this island is now guarded by a very powerful adult! If you If you dare to kill...if you kill us, that adult will not let you go!"

Mihawk walked up to Nyx and asked the boy with great interest: "Is he really a powerful person?"

Nyx: "...You don't want to fight with that big shot, do you?"

Mihawk: "If he is really as powerful as that boy said, I would like to fight him."

The boy saw how disdainful they were towards the object of his adoration, and became angry: "Don't look down on others! That adult led his powerful partners today to help the island defeat an evil sea monster. A band of thieves! And you are just two people! Hmph, you disgusting stinky pirates."

Mihawk, who can destroy the pirates alone:...

Nyx, who often did this when we were in the West Sea:...

The girl reminded the boy in a low voice: "But that adult is also a pirate..."

The boy blushed: "My lord is a good pirate! A righteous pirate! You can't be confused with the scum!"

Pirates don't want to talk about good people and justice. The savior in their eyes is mostly just a bad guy with ulterior motives, or a fool who does whatever he wants.

Nyx tugged at the edge of her hood.

Perhaps the "adult" they called them gave them the confidence, and the girl finally plucked up the courage to emerge from behind the boy and look at Nyx and Mihawk.

Then she shared her discovery with her friends in amazement.

"Those two people don't seem to be pirates! Look, their boat is so small, and they don't even have a pirate flag!"

Although the girl lowered her voice, Nyx and Mihawk could still hear her clearly.

Mihawk, who was despised for being a small boat and didn’t even have a pirate flag, but was indeed a pirate and still held the title of King Shichibukai:...

Nyx thinks she is a pirate, but she doesn’t even have her own ship, not to mention a pirate flag, and she likes to cheat and steal her fellow pirates in exchange for bounties:...

The boy stared at them suspiciously: "Are you bad people?"

Nyx chose a middle-of-the-road answer: "It's just people passing by and looking for a place to rest."

"Then you came at the right time!" the girl said happily, "There is a banquet being held on the island now!"

Boy: "Why did you tell them?"

Girl: "What does it matter? They didn't say they were bad people! And the adults are still here!"

Boy: "That's right...you are so smart for once! We will lead them to the town in a while. If they are really bad guys, then let the adults deal with them on the spot!"

The two people who were clearly arranged:...

After whispering, the two children over there bravely ran up to Nyx, but were frightened by Mihawk's aura and took two steps back.

"You, you, you are not allowed to kill people randomly!"

The boy stared nervously at the black knife behind Mihawk.

Mihawk, who simply stood there without any movement at all:...

"Let's rest on another island." Nyx sighed, "I really can't find the next island, so I'll just spend one night on the boat."

Mihawk had no objection. He was about to turn around and go back to sail the boat, but there was a slight tugging at the hem of his clothes.

"H-I'm sorry. We didn't mean to drive you away." The girl was so frightened that her eyes were filled with tears, but she still insisted on grabbing Mihawk's clothes. "I believe you are good people. Let's stay and drive together." Let’s have a party.”

The boy snorted sheepishly, lowered his head and kicked his feet, raising a small piece of sand: "If it were those bad pirates, they wouldn't let us go so easily... Let's have a banquet together. There are so many people and it's fun, sir." You will definitely be happy.”

……

The boy stood next to Nyx, staring at Nyx and Mihawk with his arms folded, and occasionally taking time to look at the girl who was happily picking up shells on the beach.

"Although you don't look like bad guys, I still have to keep an eye on you!" the boy declared.

"We just want to find a place to rest." Nyx paused, "We can also camp on this beach."

"Hmph, who knows if you guys will sneak into the town to cause trouble after dark." The boy said, "I've seen through your tricks" on his face.

The girl who had finished picking up the shells ran over and handed a small handful of colorful shells to Nyx.

"Sister, look! These shells are so beautiful!" The girl's eyes flashed with anticipation, "I want to make them into beautiful decorations for adults."

"Very nice." Nyx nodded.

The girl who got the affirmation put the shell into her pocket with satisfaction, and then looked at the boy aside with doubts.

"What are you doing standing here? Didn't you say you wanted to catch lobsters?"

"Idiot, what if you were captured by them when I went to catch lobsters!" The boy took the girl's hand angrily, "Let's go back. Otherwise, we will miss the party."

"You two have to keep up!" The boy didn't look back, but just raised his voice.

-

"Sister, do you know?" On the way, the girl broke free from the boy's hand and ran to Nicks to whisper to her, "You are so handsome!"

Nyx: "...Yeah."

"There was a bad pirate group that kept bullying us before, but you defeated them!"

"Ah."

"Many sisters in this town secretly like adults!"

"Ah."

"I heard them say that that bad pirate group wants to give the most beautiful woman on their ship to you, and wants to beg for your forgiveness!"

Nyx nodded nonchalantly.

She really has no interest in gossip... Why do both of them like to chat with her about this...

But Nyx knew that at this time, all she had to do was keep nodding in agreement to satisfy the other person's desire to talk.

And isn’t that what the fight between pirates is like?

You die and I live.

What belongs to the loser belongs to the winner.

They lost the struggle, and it would not be surprising even if the entire ship was taken as slaves.

The girl was still chattering beside her about the feats of "that adult", but Nyx had already begun to wander.

On the other side, the boy also approached Mihawk curiously, threatening him with "What do you do, sir?" while preparing to use his black knife.

very noisy.

Nyx and Mihawk sighed inwardly.

Fortunately, the time of torturing the ears was finally over, and they had reached the edge of the woods. The sun has set, and through the hazy night, the fire burning in the center of the town is so dazzling.

"They lit a bonfire!" the two children cheered.

"Look! That's the flag hung up by the adults to protect us!" The girl pointed happily at the entrance to the town and the flag fluttering in the bright bonfire in the center of the town.

Black skull and crossbones flag.

There are two crossed knives behind the skeleton.

and the iconic red scar on the left side of the skeleton's face.

"Hey, Mihawk..." Nyx couldn't believe her eyes.

"It is indeed his flag." Mihawk's voice brought Nyx back to reality.

"Sister?" The girl didn't understand what the two of them were talking about.

Nyx replayed what the girl had just said about "that adult" in her mind.

Oh.

"Did you just say that that bad pirate group wanted to give the most beautiful woman on their ship to...that gentleman?"
