[One Piece] Sabo and I fight for the character

That night, Violet learned how the selected members were determined.

At that time, they were still having a banquet on the deck, and Ace was sitting around with the crew of the Spade Pirates.

Deus and Michal, who didn't like to join in the fun, sat on the bow of the boat and looked at the brightly lit island below even though it was night, with the laughter of their friends behind them.

"Why don't you join in the fun?" Deus took the wine and poured it into his mouth. Michal held the new book Violet bought him this morning and shook his head with a smile.

"There has to be someone sober watching over you." Seeing Yanliu encouraging Ace to drink, even though he was very drunk, he still held back his neck to fight with his friends. Violet stopped her and sighed to no avail and went to the kitchen to prepare. Soup for hangover. "And you?"

Deus sat on the bow of the boat with his back to the island, "Me? I'll forget it," his blue shoulder-length hair was blowing in the evening breeze. Deus, who had just taken a shower, did not put on a mask, revealing his His eyes were the same color as his hair, and his bare arms revealed a healthy wheat-colored chest. "You'll smell like wine again later. Just have a few drinks and you'll be fine."

"I heard from Ace that the competition has already started. The participating members will know tonight. I really want to know how to know." Michal didn't get off the boat all day, but he did hear the sound of the loudspeaker in the square. here.

"I know a little bit about it." Skarr jumped out of nowhere. He jumped on the bow of the boat and tried to hang upside down, but was kicked to the right by Deus. "In a two-person competition, the atmosphere is related to couples. You don't know that there will be a lot of trouble along the way. As a couple, Bonsi and I were almost embarrassed to death, and a little girl selling flowers insisted that I buy flowers for Bonsi."

"Bangxi is so beautiful, it's not a waste to send flowers." Deus said lightly. He looked at Bangxi who was sitting around and blowing bottles with Yanliu proudly.

"Well, that's not the most important thing. I think the flowers are too expensive. Just one flower costs 1000 beli. Even if you want to rip off people, you have to pay for it in installments."

"Ahem," looking at the excited Skaar wearing a skull mask, Michal was embarrassed to say it because his mask looked like he was on the list of offenders. "Then did you buy it?"

Skar hesitated and said, "I bought it. Bonsy kept looking at me with a smile. I couldn't tell whether she was angry or didn't mind, so I bought it. She seemed very happy after giving it to Bonsy. She must have liked it. ?”

"Ville-chan, come and let's have a toast!" Hugging Violet, who had just come out of the back room and walked onto the deck with a cup in one hand, Bonsy's face turned red, and the smell of alcohol instantly spread to her, "Bonnie, have you drank? How many?"

Violet quickly held her up to prevent her from falling, and blamed Ace for letting Bonsy drink so much. As a captain, he should pay more attention to the crew.

"Ah? It's Bonsi who wants to drink it himself." Ace felt that he was quite innocent, and he couldn't stop Bonsi with his mouth.

"Forget it, I've cooked the hangover soup. You all go and have a bowl." He pulled Bonsi to sit down, handed the cup to her mouth, and asked her to drink the hangover soup inside, which was originally prepared for Ace. Yes, I didn’t expect that Bonsi was the first to fall.

Bonsy fell on the deck and fell asleep. On the other side, Yanliu and Wores were still playing guessing games. Kodaz curled his head and took a nap next to Ace.

"Ace, please help me carry Bonsi back to the bedroom. It's too cold at night and it won't be good if you catch a cold later."

"Okay," Ace, whose face was stained with a mellow red after drinking a lot of wine, stood up after hearing her words, directly picked up Bonsy and walked to the back room.

Violet: "...it will be very uncomfortable for Bonsi when you are upside down like this! Ace, please change your position."

Ace obediently held Bangsi under his arm.

Okay, at least it's better than the head-down action just now. Violet supported Bonsy's back and walked in with Ace.

After gently putting Bonsy down, Violet took off her shoes and covered herself with a quilt, turned on the light and gently closed the door.

As soon as he turned around, he faced Ace's chest. At some point, Ace pulled open the buttons again, revealing a large area of ​​skin.

The whole person was standing in front of her, looking at her with a flushed face and shortness of breath. Violet twisted her eyebrows, "Ace, could you..."

"Vell, I..." Ace moved closer to her, covering his mouth uncomfortably. The strong smell of alcohol instantly spread in her nose, her steps trembled, and her face that was red just now turned pale in an instant, as she had a premonition of what was going to happen next. Violet pulled Ace directly to the bathroom in her bedroom at a sprint speed of 100 meters. The moment she arrived, Ace threw up.

Along with the meat and wine she had just eaten, the alcohol smell was so strong that she felt like vomiting even though she had not drank.

Patting Ace's back in an attempt to soothe him, she pulled him to sit on the bathroom floor first.

"Rinse your mouth first," she poured a glass of water and handed it to him. Unexpectedly, Ace took it and poured it into his mouth, then swallowed it.

Fortunately, she was not far from Bonsi's bedroom.

"Hiccup~" Ace burped. Violet lost her temper completely. She let Ace lean against the bathtub and wiped his face with a towel dipped in water.

"If you don't drink well, don't drink with Yanliu. If you get so drunk alone, Grandpa Garp will definitely not be able to enjoy you well."

"Ah."

"Don't do this again."

"Ah."

"Ace?"

"Ah."

"Ace is a big idiot."

"Ah."

Looking at Ace who had already answered subconsciously, Violet sighed and threw the towel into the bucket.

She originally planned to get the hangover soup for him to drink, but the moment she turned around, she noticed something strange about her body. She pulled up her clothes and found a faint pattern tattoo on her left chest. It was only vaguely visible at first, but later it was directly exaggerated The color appears on the skin as well.

It's a white rose flower.

Remembering the words of the person with the "Love Fruit" ability, Violet immediately knelt down and looked directly at Ace's body without taking off her clothes. Sure enough, she also found an identical pattern tattoo on his body.

Were they chosen?

Resisting the urge to wake Ace up, Violet looked at the roses in the same position as the two of them. After a moment of silence, she stood up and left the bedroom.

When Ace woke up, he found Bonsy sleeping in the bathroom of Violet's bedroom. She shook Ace's collar anxiously.

"Hey, captain, wake up, Veer-chan is gone!"

Ace woke up. It was already the second day when he heard the news that Violet was missing. The open shirt also allowed Bonsy to see the pattern tattoo on his chest. She pointed to the rose flower and said, "Ace, when are you going?" Got a tattoo?"

"I don't have a tattoo...how did this appear?" Ace was surprised. He himself didn't know what happened. Violet disappeared again. No one on the ship had seen her get off the ship.

Stopping the furious Ace, Bonsy asked him to think about whether anything unusual had happened. Even the nervous Ace felt a little calmer at this moment. He suddenly remembered what happened on the stage in the afternoon.

"That ability user! Pecats! The eagle-headed host said that when we set foot on this island, we had already been tricked by that ability user. Maybe Weir disappeared because of this."

Bonsi tried hard to find the name Pecats among the Devil Fruit users she knew, but she only found the name Pecats who was similar. Looking at Ace's indignant face, she hesitated and asked, "Is it the "Love Fruit"? "Perac, right?" "

Ace, "Yes, that's her!"

"Calling people by their names! It makes me wonder when there were so many powerful people." Bonsy roared, and she knocked Ace on the head, "Now that we know that Veer-chan disappeared because of her, we can start Calm down, Ace, go back to the captain's cabin to wash up and change clothes, and then we'll go to the square together to see what they want."

After smelling the stench of alcohol, Ace looked at Bonsy's stinky face, then remembered Violet's words, and came out of the bathroom and went straight to the captain's room.

The downtown square was filled with people, and most of them were men, but the women were nowhere to be seen. It looked like the situation was similar to that of Violet, all the chosen women were gone.

"Agubi, where did you take my Nia?" The man who spoke was the man who bumped into Ace before.

"My Fran-chan is gone too!"

"My dear one too!"

"Agubi, come out quickly!"

Ace came to the center of the square, surrounded by a group of angry men, but Ace himself was much calmer.

Agubi, who was called by everyone, finally appeared. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and mentally condemned Perac for causing this drama.

"Ahem, please be patient, gentlemen, your girlfriend is safe and sound, and is waiting for you to find her somewhere. Yes, this is the content of the competition. Find your lover within the specified time. The time limit is three hours. !”

"The location is in Rose Town. There is a maze inside. Although it is a temporary installation, it is absolutely empty inside. Please find her within the specified time and successfully bring her out. The first one to come out is the winner."

"Of course, finding her is nothing. Being able to protect her and take her away is the ultimate winner." Agubi's face was half covered. "That's right, violence is not prohibited in this game, but killing is absolutely prohibited! No matter what method you use, whether it's charming the opponent or knocking the opponent unconscious, it's not a violation!"

"Go, brave pursuers of love, and rescue your beloved from the maze."

As the fireworks were fired from the barrel, the quiet crowd suddenly became excited, and everyone rushed towards Rose Town.

"Bonsy, you guys wait for me on the boat, I'll take Weir out." Ace pressed down his cowboy hat, and his eyes under the hat couldn't see his emotions clearly.

Bangsi was stunned for a moment and nodded.

Ace seemed furious. Bonsi thought as he watched the burning flames appear on his body with a roar.

*

Ace was indeed angry.

There is a difference between active participation and passive participation. It is absolutely unforgivable to make a decision without people's consent and then disappear people.

When we find Weir, no matter if she is a boy or a girl, we will give her a good beating!

The person behind all this, Peraz, shuddered. She thought she had made a very unexpected surprise, and had no idea that her future fate was about to be pinned to the ground and beaten severely.

Except for those contestants who were directly selected, Kebi, who was forced to participate in the competition with Arrita, was in tears.

It’s not that he likes Alita, the type he likes must be at least thin, and he can’t be older than him!

Seeing the strange looks from the people around him, Kebi wanted to dig a hole and bury himself. He finally saw a familiar face, but because of the hostility around him, Kebi stopped abruptly.

That man named Ace is so scary. Kirby turned left and right without seeing another familiar person, his mind was spinning rapidly, and when he saw Ace's indifference passing by, a line finally formed in his mind.

The man named Ace must be so angry because Miss Violet disappeared.

He wanted to start a fight and ask him to follow him to find someone. He couldn't find Captain Arrita on his own.

Why did the staff allow them, who are not a couple or a love interest at all, to attend! Even if Arrita guessed the answer correctly, he shouldn't be allowed to participate!

This is against the rules of the game! ! !

This can be regarded as shooting oneself in the foot, Kebi was suffocated.

But time did not allow him to think wildly. Seeing Ace was about to walk away, Kebi swallowed his saliva and followed him fearfully.

Miss Violet said that man wouldn't hit children, so as long as he doesn't cause trouble and follows quietly, he'll be fine.

I hope Captain Arrita can come out on her own.

-

Ace didn't know that there was a little tail following behind him. At this time, he was surrounded by a ball of anger, as if someone had cast a magic spell on your favorite spaghetti in front of you and made it disappear. Looking for a sense of irritability.

Entering Rose Town, Ace looked up at the makeshift maze. Although it was temporary, the area was much larger than expected. The completely covered ceiling makes it impossible to jump up and look down from above.

There are twists and turns, countless forks in the road, and countless closed doors. Every time I open them, I feel a sense of loss that no one can be found.

Kirby followed closely behind Ace, watching him gradually lose his patience.

"That...Mr. Ace!" A timid voice sounded behind Ace, and he turned to look at Kirby.

A short winter melon with pink hair and round eyes.

"You are... Piccolo." "It's Kobi, Mr. Ace!" Kobi interrupted Ace loudly. After he finished yelling, he realized that he seemed too bold, "Oops, I'm sorry, Mr. Ace, I'm not I yelled at you on purpose!”

"Oh, you're the kid from yesterday. Why are you here too?" Ace remembered that it was the kid who interrupted him and Violet.

Kebi's heartbeat accelerated, and he was so nervous that his heart almost jumped out of his chest. He said tremblingly, "I, I'm here to see Captain Arrita."

Ashton suddenly showed an incomprehensible expression, looking at Kebi with a particularly complicated look.

"That aunt with the mace? Kerby, your taste is really unique."

"No! I was implicated!" Kebi was on the verge of crying. Thinking of it, he seemed to be the culprit as well. If he had known earlier, he would have just said he didn't know. Why should he be so active in finding the answer? "Anyway, I have to find Captain Arrita quickly, otherwise she will definitely kill me."

Kebi's palms were sweating, and he straightened his back even though he was scared to death, "Please let me follow you, Mr. Ace, I won't hold you back!" The round lenses reflected Ace's face. With his expressionless face, Kebi suddenly looked like a bewildered cabbage, waving his arms helplessly.

"Forget it, if you want to follow, just follow. Let's make a deal first. I won't stop. You have to keep up with me." Ace glanced at him lightly. The most important thing now is to find Valerie. special.

"Yes!" Kebi responded excitedly and followed with small steps.

The girls/women who were forced to stay in the maze on the other side were crowded into a large guest room. The smell of various perfumes hit their faces, which was very choking. Violet coughed lightly and moved away. Went to the center and came to the small corner.

She rarely wears perfume and usually tidies up her appearance before going out.

The air here is filled with the smell of cheap and expensive perfume.

"If I had known that the game was coming so suddenly, I wouldn't have just put on my pajamas and slept. I felt stupid when I woke up."

"Ah, I'm fine. I never like wearing pajamas. It's just that I took off my makeup. Damn it, it must be ugly."

"I hope he finds me soon. I don't want to be crowded together with ordinary women. It's really annoying and the smell of perfume on my body is almost gone."

"Hey, hey, look over there. Whose girlfriend is she? How could anyone like her when she's so fat?"

"Yeah, yeah, it's really annoying. I don't want to be with ugly people." Several people wearing expensive pajamas or underwear stood in the middle of the crowd, pointing to a certain place, with disgusted expressions.

That familiar look made Violet aware of the difference between them and so many ordinary women.

Either rich or noble.

domineering.

Violet lowered her eyes, not intending to get involved in their hugging behavior. Ace would find her soon anyway.

I think I don't want to attract attention, but the person being discussed is not someone to be trifled with.

Arrita is among this group of people, enduring the pointing fingers of those women? nonexistent.

Arrita did not expect that the game would come so suddenly. The cowboy hat decorated with red plush that she always liked to wear was not with her. Fortunately, her weapon mace was with her.

In my ears are the chattering of women with exquisite makeup and gorgeous clothes.

"Shut your stupid mouth, do you believe that I will prevent you from seeing the sun tomorrow?" Arrita waved her mace and hit the ground with one blow, causing a large dent in the ground. pit.

After all, they grew up with a silver spoon in their mouths, no matter how bad they are, they are still silver spoons. The women who were talking suddenly fell silent and did not dare to say another word.

"The winner this time will definitely be me, Arrita, and the "Snow Snow Fruit" will also be in my bag. Arrita looked at them with disdain as they were all crowded together like quails. Except for her, the place where she was was like a vacuum, and everyone was afraid to approach her.

"Hmph, as long as Kebi finds me and takes me out of the maze, I will be the winner, hahaha." Arrita smiled happily, as if she had already seen the door to victory.

Violet looked at her in astonishment, Kerby... couldn't be the Kerby she thought, right?

It shouldn't be, I can't imagine the two of them together at all.

"Who is the most beautiful woman on the sea?" "Oh, of course it is you, Ms. Arrita, oh haha." Arrita asked herself the question without any embarrassment.

Violet: "..."

No matter how awkward the atmosphere here is, the men outside who are working hard are making no progress.

-

Keep spinning around the wall. When you turn a corner, it's a dead end. If you go back and start over, it's still a dead end.

Dead end, dead end, dead end.

Kebi looked nervously at Ace, who was getting more and more irritable.

"Mr. Ace, don't worry. Isn't there a saying that says, "When a car reaches the mountain, there will be a road, and when a boat reaches the bridge, it will be straight." Maybe we can find it while walking. "

Kirby didn't know if he could stabilize Ace's mood. He thought it was useless comfort, but Ace stopped directly and stood in front of a wall. It was just a wall. It is made of thick wooden boards, but the sound insulation is very good, otherwise you can directly identify the location by listening to the sound.

"You're right, if there is no way, just create your own way. Piccolo, I didn't expect you to be very smart. It seems that you are also eager to find people. Just wait, when I find Veil, I will help you find your Ya Captain Erlita." Ace suddenly became enlightened and punched the palm of his left hand with his right hand like a fist. The confusion in his heart seemed to have found hope. His eyebrows were curved and his sullen face finally showed a smile.

"Wait a minute, I'm Kerby, Mr. Ace, why can you call Captain Alita's name right but you always call me the wrong name!" Kerby was about to collapse, and he was pulling at his pinkie frantically. He didn't dare to yell at Ace anymore, so he could only explain with a red face that he really didn't like Captain Arrita!

Kirby watched Ace twist his neck from side to side, clenching his right fist and tightening it to the right. His dark eyes seemed to be flickering with sparks. It was a real flame, spreading from his fist to his arm.

Like active tongues of fire, running wildly between his arms, Ace's wanton and arrogant face flashed past Kebi's shocked eyes, and the black-haired young man raised his fist in flames.

"--fire punch."

As if it had found a breakthrough, the flames instantly broke through the temporary wall with a solid appearance, and collapsed with a roar.

"Isn't there a way, Piccolo?" Ace laughed and looked at the wall that was knocked down by him, revealing the appearance inside.

It is a long corridor.

Kerby: "...It's Kerby, Mr. Ace."

The collapsed wall was an early warning. Everyone seemed to have a clue and wanted to imitate Ace and break through the wall directly. However, no matter whether they used knives, guns or hammers, they couldn't break a hole. They suddenly looked at Ace in horror. Everyone wanted to stay away from him.

Ace found a faster way. Whenever he encountered a wall blocking his way, he punched it directly.

"Ahem, please don't destroy the wall, Mr. Ace." Agubi had to speak out to stop this behavior.

Who is it that can break through a specially made wall? It's really terrifying.

Ace's eyebrows twitched as he listened to Agubi's voice on the radio.

That eagle head.

"Kirby, did you hear what he said?"

Kebi responded conditionedly, "It's Kebi. Hey, he got it right this time."

Ace patiently asked again, "What did Eagle Head say?"

Eagle head... Kerby looked at Ace's gloomy face and suddenly woke up. He said very decisively, "I didn't hear anything, Mr. Ace!"

"Very good," Ace grinned and actually gave Kirby a smile.

Then the road of smashing into walls began again.

Agubi was completely helpless. Even if he only looked at the dark face of the black-haired young man through the screen, he knew that he was definitely so angry that he wanted to kill someone.

This made him blame the Peratz woman again.

Forget it, no matter what happens in the end, there will be a guard to protect it. No matter what happens, it has nothing to do with him. He is just a small host.

No matter how big the maze was, it couldn't withstand Ace's destruction, and soon he broke the last wall.

"Ahem, Mr. Ace, please slow down a little," Kirby covered his mouth. The air was filled with dust and flying sawdust.

"Ace?" Like a bright light in the dark night, Violet's figure appeared behind the collapsed wall.

"Vell!" After breaking through countless walls, Ace finally met the girl he wanted to see the most. Before he could reach out and grab her open hand, a plump figure rushed behind him, picked up Kebi, and patted him with a red face under his almost panicked gaze. "Kebby, good boy, I knew you would find me."

Ace took Violet's open hand and brought her into his arms. The feeling of reality in his arms made him breathe a sigh of relief unconsciously.

Violet happily hugged the visitor.

"Ace, I knew you would be the first to find me." After the surprise, the two separated, looking at each other with a hint of joy in their eyes.

"Kerby, good boy, let's get out of here quickly." Arrita's sharp voice made the two of them pay attention to that side. Keby was being lifted up above his head with a frightened expression.

"Speaking of which, Arrita's... partner is actually Kerby." Violet found it hard to say. She looked at Arrita, who was obese and had rouge and gouache on her face, and her face was covered with freckles.

Sure enough, people are divided into groups. The freckles on Ace's body make him look more handsome, but in Al Rita, they are just pockmarked.

"Oh, Kirby, who is the most beautiful woman in this sea, huh?"

Kebi made a painful sound from his throat, "...it's you, Captain Arrita, please let me go."

He no longer wanted to face Mr. Ace’s complicated gaze, nor Violet’s awe-inspiring gaze.

"Kerby, you... have quite unique taste."

"That's not true! Please listen to my explanation, Miss Violet!"

"Stop talking, Violet, I'll take you out of here." Ace looked at the proud Alita and the embarrassed Kirby, picked up Princess Violet and hugged her, under the envious eyes of everyone , took off and landed a little on Arrita's head. At the moment of assistance, Arrita collapsed a little. Before she waved the mace, Ace had successfully jumped to the broken wall in the distance. Go up and away.

"Sorry Piccolo, victory will be ours."

"...It's Kerby, Mr. Ace." Kerby shouted sadly as he was dragged away by his collar.

The last ones to escape from the maze were Ace, who destroyed all thirty-six floors of walls made of special materials, and his white rose, Violet.

Behind them were the contestants who came out in a panic, and it was over before it even started, which perfectly described their state of the competition.

Facing the high-spirited black-haired young man holding a girl and laughing wildly, and the female pirate who tightened the boy's collar and showed murderous intent, Agubi took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, and picked up the diamond-encrusted microphone on the side.

"This competition is over! The winner is Mr. Ace and the girl beside him, Violet~"

"They will receive the prize of this competition - "Snow Snow Fruit"! "

Agubi announced the winner of the competition like a hot potato, and what happened after that had nothing to do with him. He was just an ordinary host.
