[One Piece] Sabo and I fight for the character

A year has passed since the incident that day, and after that, Pavani Lanost knocked on her door the next day with a collection of ornamental ship models, and Renya also told the family of three She went to her company to take a boat trip on the sea. Although it was only not far from the shore, Violet was very happy.

Eve Carrie, her playmate that year, rarely came to see her. As expected, she completely integrated into Yaya's circle of friends and didn't come to play with her for a long time.

Violet, who rarely got up early, sat on a chair with her face in her hands. Through the window, she saw the lively scene in the street market in the distance, and boredly counted every passerby.

A young woman carrying a vegetable basket is holding a young boy. The little boy has a smile on his face, holding his mother's hand and shaking it; small groups of children pass by holding kites; the Duke wearing a gentleman's hat hugs him The lady got into the carriage...

Hey, Yaya is not here? Rarely thinking of her, Violet pouted and looked away from the couple. Forget it, she'd better find something to do. With this thought, Violet put on a light blue suspender skirt, a high ponytail, and small brown leather shoes before going out.

Her parents were not at home, so she left unexpectedly quickly. If she were at home, she would have talked for a while.

Walking on the cobblestone path, with a thin morning mist shrouding the front, Violet saw the usually magnificent 'palaces' shrouded in thick fog, and only one or two shadows could be seen.

I am used to seeing it like this on weekdays, and it turns out there is a more beautiful scenery than this.

The path is lined with lush greenery, exuding the scent of grass, the crisp chirping of birds, and friends meeting each other on a narrow road.

"Violet?"

"Carrie?" Seeing her here means that the proud Yaya is also there.

Violet's eyes moved away from Eve Carrie, who was wearing a beautiful cake dress and a red hairband embellished with small diamonds, and saw Yalan Yaya holding a fluffy cloth in her arms. The cat, standing in front of me.

It was rare for Yaya not to show off her face. She excitedly showed off to her, "Look, this is the new toy I just got. How do you like it? Isn't it beautiful?"

The ragdoll cat's lake-blue eyes stared straight at Violet, and its meowing and sucking sounds instantly pierced her heart.

"It's so beautiful, and her scream is also very cute." Violet admired with envy, and Yaya's mood became even more joyful, "I won't care about your rudeness this time, you are very discerning, we plan to go to my garden to play , you come too."

Violet resisted the urge to complain. She really liked cats. Eve Carrie spoke at the right time, "Yaya, I heard that my uncle and aunt brought very delicious specialties from my hometown. Do you think it’s okay to eat snacks in the small garden and play with the cats?”

Yaya, who was already seven years old, also understood some things. She glanced at Violet, pouted and relaxed, "Okay, Violet, you can come too." The charity-like tone made Violet Frowning, Eve Carrie held her hand and followed Yaya with a haha.

"You also know that Yaya's character is like that, so just be more tolerant." Eve Carrie whispered in her ear.

-

"So beautiful. What kinds of flowers are these? They are really beautiful." Eve Carrie's approving voice sounded. She looked at the huge garden and couldn't help but look around.

Violet and the three of them were sitting in a small pavilion in the garden. There were cute snacks and unnamed drinks on the small stone table. Violet picked up the cup and took a sip. It was sweet and grape-flavored, but it had a faint taste of alcohol in her mouth.

"This is a brandy cocktail. The alcohol content is not very high, but my mother always won't let me drink it. But they are out now and can't control me." Yaya explained, "Isn't my garden very big? This is where my father used to drink it. I built it and she knew I loved pretty things.”

Duke Yalan's home is really big, and the address he chose for his wife was very thoughtful. One garden is worth two or three living rooms in her house. Violet responded to Yaya's words while looking at the flowers clustered together.

"But Yaya, where are your parents? Why didn't they take you there?" Eve Carrie, who was tired of watching, also came to the small pavilion and sat down.

"I don't know, I want to go too, but my father is adamant and says it's a place for adults to go and won't let me go." Yaya collapsed on the chair in frustration and stroked Maomao's head. "Although I wasn't allowed to go, I still heard some information. It seemed to be a discussion about starting a trafficking project."

"Hey, if you say that, my parents are not here today. Where are you, Violet?"

Violet was stunned and shook her head, "They went out early in the morning."

"So our parents all went out at the same time. Did they all go to that seminar? Yaya, what else do you know?"

"I don't know how many there are, but I know the location. It's in the chaotic area next to the civilian area. It's always very chaotic. I think it's best to open there." Yaya also heard something, and she reached out and held the The small cake was about to be put into her mouth when the ragdoll cat lying on her lap suddenly jumped up, knocking her cake off and leaving cake marks on her skirt.

She stood up suddenly, furious, "Damn it, you annoying cat! Housekeeper, clean it up for me quickly!"

Eve Carrie quickly took out a small handkerchief and handed it to her, but Violet asked, "Selling? Selling what?"

"Huh? Are you stupid? Of course it's merchandise. It can move. What else do you think it could be in that place? I heard that nobles like to go there to pick out their favorite merchandise. I heard my dad say, this The most noble and respected Celestial Dragon in the world, he also has many collections. We have never had one here, and if it can be opened, I would also like to pick one. Really, my skirt is sticky. "

"The product... can move..." Violet was a little shocked, "Are you talking about people? Or animals?"

"Of course they are human beings. You are so stupid. There may be fishmen and mermaids, but that is impossible. How can we have these here." Yaya, who is well-informed, glanced at Violet with disdain. She has been to the sea and traveled to many places with Duke Yalan. She has no idea about these things, and it is none of her business anyway. "But it has to be passed. I don't think it can be passed." After that, she continued to fiddle with her skirt. She just wiped it clean and waved her paw up again, as if to oppose her.

"Ah! Macy, you stinky cat! My skirt has just been cleaned! Housekeeper, catch Macy and put her in a cage. I want to starve her for a meal!" After saying this angrily, Yaya replied holding up her skirt. Go home and change clothes.

"Carrie, I'm going back first, please tell Yaya." Violet said.

"Hey! Violet, where are you going!"

-

The Pavani couple didn't come back until late at night. Lan Oost took off his suit jacket and hat and let Babasha pick them up. He took off his tie and threw it on the ground, "Damn it Garp!"

"Anada," Renia held his hand worriedly, "What happened?" As a family member, she was not able to enter the discussion and went to the next door with the other noble ladies who accompanied them. waiting room.

Lan Oost, who had been returning home with a dark face since he boarded the ship, finally spoke out, "The originally proposed club has been approved by all members. The plan will be implemented in the second half of the year, and all the escorted ships will be handed over to us. The company handles it.”

"Isn't that great? Why are you still angry?"

"Here's the crux of the problem! All the information was ready, but when we got to the next level, we were turned back! The reviewer was Lieutenant General Karp. When he knew this, he immediately asked him to return it, and even the documents were torn. Lost."

"In this area that I manage, this kind of thing is absolutely not allowed to happen - that's what he said."

"...So, our business is messed up? But that Lieutenant General Garp, I remember that he rarely comes to East China Sea."

"Who knows what he wants to do! I only know that I lost a great opportunity. I originally thought I could use this opportunity to successfully connect with the other side."

"I have heard about the heroic Lieutenant General. He has a good reputation among civilians. He is very fair in dealing with people. He is unanimously recognized and respected by everyone in the Navy. If he had stopped him, it would be difficult for him to let go. There is room for reversal." Renia said very embarrassedly.

"Bulu Bulu - Bulu Bulu -" the phone bug's voice rang at the right time.

"Is it the president? Really? Okay, I understand. Don't worry, our company will definitely do a good job in shipping." After answering the phone, Lan Ost felt as excited as riding a roller coaster.

"It's done, it's done," Lan Oost hugged Renia and spun her around.

"Stop turning around, what happened?"

"Our dock company is about to receive a big business. The president who was in charge just now contacted me and said that the clubhouse can be opened. I should still be responsible for the pick-up and drop-off tasks. The Navy has also taken care of it. As long as we are ready, it will be ready in the second half of the year. It can be started, just don’t make a big deal about it.”

"But you just said that if the Vice Admiral doesn't let go, there's nothing we can do..."

"Humph, this means that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world. Don't worry, a big shot has taken it over directly."

Renia was also happy when she heard it.

The two danced a waltz, attracting Violet who had woken up from the night.

"What are you doing, Mom and Dad?" After rubbing her sleepy eyes, Violet looked at the Pavani couple dancing in the living room and tilted her head.

"Listen to me, honey, the Pavani family is going to be famous." Renya said softly, "Our company will have a lot of income in the second half of the year, not only safe money, but also new partners. Although We don’t know who the big shot is yet, but we will know when the handover takes place in the second half of the year.”

"Did you go with Carrie's parents?" She was suddenly awakened from her sleep.

"You kid, Eve and his family are also going. After all, they are all nobles. There is no reason for them to be absent from the meetings held by the nobles."

"Then, do you really want to open that club in a chaotic area?" Violet asked eagerly. Suddenly, she felt a chill on her back.

"How do you know this?" Lan Oost asked expressionlessly.

"I heard what Yaya said. She told me that the meeting you held was to establish a sales center in the chaotic area. Dad, what are you planning to sell?"

Lan Oost stared at Violet for a long time, "What do you, a child, know? Go to bed quickly."

"Are the products being sold human beings?"

"You don't need to teach me what to do at any age," Lan Oost did not answer her question, but just urged her to go to bed.

Violet is good at everything, but asking for the final answer is a fatal point for a noble.

"That's wrong. Dad, can we quit?"

"When will it be your turn to dictate matters to adults, Violet!"

"But how could we do such a thing to our own kind? This was done by bad people!" At a certain moment, cracks appeared in Violet's outlook on life.

"Shut up and go back to your room. You are getting more and more presumptuous. It seems that your tutor has not taught you thoroughly. I will have a new teacher starting tomorrow. Just wait at home."

-

Violet, who was forced to rush back to her room, did not lie down. She had no sleep at all.

At this moment, she suddenly found that the knowledge she had learned conflicted with her brain.

Human beings are originally connected in a business chain. Rich people can buy the human beings they like... But isn't this a very crazy approach? The tutor who taught her was a commoner. Just because she was knowledgeable, received invitations from many families, and had outstanding looks, her father made an exception and went directly to these families to invite her.

The teacher told her that nobles and commoners are both human beings, but one is a noble, rich and powerful, and the other is a commoner, maybe from a well-off family, or a poor person who is too poor to expose others, but neither of them should live a life of contempt for others. Way.

Everyone is trying to live for their own lives.

Everyone is equal.

"Go and see more of the outside world, Xiao Weier. You should not be bound in a cage made of money. When you see more people and come into contact with more things, you will understand that you are a human being. What kind of environment are you in?"

Violet's dark eyes were shining. She was lying on her side on the soft bed, her hands just clasped in front of her chest, and her legs curled up close to her belly.

Teacher, although I still don’t understand what you say, I will practice it.

The look in Lan Ost's eyes at her just now appeared in her mind. Violet shook her head and slowly fell into sleep.
