[One Piece] About me, a sea elf running rampant on the sea

Chapter 9 Communication

This human being's vitality seems to be quite tenacious. He swallowed so much water and suffered a blow from you without any sense of fishery. He woke up just by choking on his saliva.

"Cough, cough cough - vomit -" He spit out all the water into the sea very close to you, and you disgustedly washed away the seawater in that area with a wave.

This human being is so uneducated!

Your expression becomes ugly, and the fish's tail is ready to move again.

After vomiting for a while, he finally remembered your existence.

"Who are you?"

He looked at your fish tail.

"Mermaid? Why are you here?" This place is quite far away from Fishman Island, and it is not within Whitebeard's territory. "Are you lost?"

""A mermaid is a mermaid.

You know that as a sea elf, you can easily get into trouble. Although mermaids also have a lot of troubles, things are rare and expensive, so you feel that if you are auctioned, you will definitely get more money than a mermaid.

A little proud.

This human seems to be quite polite and apologizes to you after learning the reason why you bumped into each other.

"Then I'm really sorry. I accidentally fell asleep on the boat and didn't see you."

That ship is powered by fire, right? Actually fell asleep while using the fruit ability? ? ?

Isn't he afraid of falling into the sea and hitting the street? !

You communicated with this human for a while and learned that his name was Ace and he was also a pirate. He was looking for his younger brother who had just gone to sea and a guy named Blackbeard.

"Let me tell you, Siaf." He touched his chin as if thinking about something, "Your name sounds so strange."

You have a bad feeling and it feels familiar.

Then you saw him look up at you as if he had figured something out:

"Can I call you Thea?"

Do all these pirates like to change other people's names, you bastard? ? !

You were used to being called that nickname on the Merry, so you didn't get as emotional as you did at first.

"I reluctantly agreed," you said, sinking half of your face into the water and blowing bubbles. "After all, my captain is also called that, so be grateful."

"I always think you're a bit of a stinker, Thea."

Ace touched the back of his head and looked you up and down (actually only half of your face was exposed) "But you are also a pirate. Where is your ship?"

Looking around this area of the sea, there was no sign of a ship.

You swung your tail, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"I ran away from the ship."

You always feel like you are being willful like a child.

"Hey, that's it." His tone didn't sound too surprised, "Why? Did your companion make you angry?"

"He's my captain." You puffed up your cheeks, and with the thought that we would never meet again, you summarized what happened before and told him.

"So, my captain is an idiot with a head full of meat! Bastard! Marine garbage!"

"Wow, I am obviously looking forward to adventure with my companions."

"Uuuuuuuuuah He is a big idiot! He is the stupidest human being in the world!"

You put your hands on this small boat. It was okay at first, but later on you became more and more aggrieved, and tears began to fall down.

"Ah, that seems a bit too much." And this human was still doing the finishing touches without any emotional intelligence, "So you can't go back now, right?"

""It's so heartbreaking! !

This human seemed to be a gentleman at first, but why did his tone of speech become as hateful as Luffy's after they communicated for a while? ? ?

Are these humans poisonous? !

"You actually like your partner, right?"

On the single-person boat, Ace straightened his hat and used the Burning Fruit ability to light a flame on the boat. The sudden high temperature made you, a high-temperature waste who had not fully recovered, swim to the side in disgust.

"" Your eyes were wandering and you didn't answer.

"When you were telling me about them, your expression was much more lively than when you were talking to me." Ace grinned, "They must also like you very much!"

"Of course," you raised your chin proudly, "after all, I am a mermaid that everyone loves!"

"ocean?"

"nothing!!"

You almost spilled the beans and quickly dipped your chin into the water.

After chatting for a while, you finally made friends. Ace told you that his next stop was a winter island called Drum Island, where there were traces of Blackbeard that he had been tracking.

"And my brother might be passing by there."

With that said, he furled the sail.

"Eh-" You were a little surprised, "Don't you know where your brother is?"

"I made an appointment with him to go to sea when he was 17 years old. Calculating the time, he is almost in that area." A smile like an elder showed on his face.

"If you don't take a look, I always feel uneasy, my idiot brother."

He sat down under the sail and waved to you

"Then, I'm leaving."

"See you next time, Thea!"

"Wait a minute!"

You panicked and grabbed the boat, but your paws were burned red.

"Huh? What's wrong?" He looked at you strangely.

"Well, um," you pursed your lips, "can you let me travel with you for a while?"

Because as for Winter Island, you heard from Neptune before that there is one near Luffy's route.

Although I don’t know what it’s called, I can try my luck at least.

It's better than using [Mirage] to run around the world and then being captured and auctioned because you're weak, right?

"No."
