Abducted a pirate hunter

Human beings are indeed difficult to understand.

Sylphis frowned and came to a conclusion again.

After making a long circle, Sylphis, who realized that he had indeed misunderstood, jumped off the chair and slowly walked towards the window.

Shanks, who was eavesdropping with his ears perked up, noticed Sylphis' approach and quickly lowered his head, leaning his elbows on his bent knees, pretending not to hear.

Sylphis put her hands on the window sill, looked down at the red-haired man with his back to her, pouted and scratched his cheek, a little at a loss what to do.

This was the first time she had to coax Shanks. In the past, Shanks always apologized after irritating her.

How does Shanks usually apologize to her?

……

Sylvester shivered inexplicably, looked down at Shanks who was sulking, sighed softly, and left the window.

Hearing the footsteps fading away, Shanks looked confused. Wait, wait, aren't you here to apologize?

Why did he leave after looking at him for a while? !

I secretly glanced back and saw that there was indeed no one on the window sill above.

He was so shocked, why not comfort him!

Before he could help but stand up, the door of the bar was pushed open from the inside. Shanks immediately threw his face to the other side and continued to face the door with the back of his head.

Shanks, who was almost caught peeping, had his heart beating fast. He was thankful that he reacted in time.

After finally getting angry, he must make her realize her mistake. He could not let her bow her head no matter what!

"Shanks." The voice came from very close. Shanks, who was still in shock, looked over subconsciously. The sight that caught his eye made him feel his heart being hit again.

Sylphis squatted very close to him, holding her exquisite face with her hands and tilting her head. She rarely showed a flattering smile, blinked her bright purple eyes and looked at him, and expressed her kindness in a soft and sweet voice. Said: "Shanks, it's my fault, I shouldn't have made you worry. There won't be a next time."

Shanks froze and looked at Sylphis who was so close. Although he was used to seeing her good looks, she rarely showed this expression to him, and even smiled at the crew members other than the cadres. than smiling at him!

Why do you suddenly feel a little uncomfortable?

"Shanks, I'll tell you if something happens next time. I'm sorry for the quarrel with you just now." Silphis continued to show a sweet smile: "Can you forgive me this time?"

"You..." Shanks found his voice and quietly stepped back, trying to keep that extremely lethal face away from him. He turned away and coughed: "I shouldn't be so mean to you either. Yell, sorry."

Sylvester cupped her cheeks and looked at his turned side face, smiling and bending her eyes. She stood up, suppressed the emotion in her eyes, and stretched out her hand towards Shanks who was still sitting on the ground.

"Come in, don't sit outside."

Shanks was a little overwhelmed by the rare kind treatment from Sylphis. Or rather, it felt a little weird?

He looked up at Sylphis, who looked back with a smile and lowered his eyes. Shanks, who couldn't wipe away the weird feeling in his heart, raised his hand and asked her to pull him up.

After using the force to stand up, Sylvestre let go of his hand. Shanks didn't really exert force on his hands. Sylvest often felt that Shanks was too strong to be human. If he really exerted force, Not to mention that she couldn't hold him back, she had to be carried over.

Shanks looked thoughtfully at Sylphis's back as he turned around and entered the room. What should I say?

Is it because he is used to Sylphis scowling at him, or is it because she is more 'human' when she is angry?

In short, this kind of Sylphis made Shanks uncomfortable.

Shanks shook his head and felt that he was thinking too much. He smiled bitterly. It seemed that he was used to being disliked by Sylphis. She was suddenly so friendly to him, but he was suspicious.

"Where's Mihawk?" Silphis looked at the seat with only an empty wine glass in confusion.

"He said you two were too troublesome and ran away from the window." Xia Qi pointed to the open window on the other side and said.

Sylphis was relieved that he was gone. Mihawk's eyes were too sharp, as if nothing could be hidden from him.

Glancing at Shanks beside him, it wasn't that Shanks was easy to deceive, but he wasn't as ruthless as Mihawk when exposing her, Shanks was more tactful.

Sylvester looked away with some guilt for no reason. Shanks was obviously not a good person, so why should she feel sorry for him.

Xia Qi looked at the two people who had a big quarrel and then quickly made up. One was looking out the window with his chin on his back, and the other was stroking his wine glass and thinking about something blankly. The inexplicable atmosphere made Xia Qi doubt whether they were real. Reconciliation or fake reconciliation.

Calm afternoons always make people feel sleepy. Sylphis, who was a little dozed off, cupped her cheeks and half-closed her eyes, feeling like she was about to fall asleep.

Shanks, who was talking to Xia Qi at the side, suddenly shut up mid-sentence, glanced sharply at the door behind him, and said jokingly: "Someone is coming."

Xia Qi folded her arms and looked over calmly. After a while, she heard a group of menacing footsteps. Sylphis acted as if she hadn't heard and kept the same posture.

The door of the bar was kicked violently. After a loud "Bang!", the door was not kicked open as everyone expected.

"?" Shanks tilted his head.

"?" Xia Qi also tilted her head.

"..."

The uninvited guest outside the door kicked up his legs in anger.

"Bang bang bang!"

The wooden door seemed to be stuck, and there was no sign of opening at all.

If it was kicked crookedly the first time, then there must be something wrong with it not being kicked open after so many times. Xia Qi’s bar door is not made of an extremely heavy material.

The two of them looked at Sylvester at the same time. She was probably the only one who could do this without anyone noticing.

Sylphis frowned at the noise. She thought that casting a spell to fix the door would prevent them from coming in, but she didn't expect to be so unwilling to give up. She raised her hand and snapped her fingers, breaking the magic on the door. .

The wooden door suddenly opened automatically, causing the kicked leg to fly into the air, and the whole person fell in with an ugly posture.

Xia Qi glanced at the people outside the door. A few guys with bruises and swollen faces looked familiar. She said, "Aren't these the little bastards who just had the Overlord meal?"

Isn't this the best way to call the parents?

Shanks turned around and leaned on the bar with open arms, looking like an uncle as the embarrassed pirate got up while cursing.

Although the opened wooden door was full of footprints, it didn't look damaged, but we couldn't let them continue to cause damage in the store. Shanks turned his back to Xia Qi and smiled brightly: "I'll deal with these guys! "

He jumped off the chair and took two steps forward. Before the opponent's weapon swung down and slashed the floor, Shanks suddenly stopped smiling and widened his eyes.

A powerful aura spread instantly, and all the pirates in front of him suddenly froze, and the fierce aura was even felt by the two people behind him.

Xia Qi looked on indifferently, and Sylphis froze. This was the first time she saw Shanks use Overlord Haki.

She has always heard of this ability, but this is the first time she feels its power. After all, there are very few people who can use it. Even though Shanks is one of them, he prefers to stay with his companions when facing enemies. If you rush in to fight, it will rarely be solved in one go.

Shanks' strength was undeniable. Sylphis stared at his back with complicated eyes. Why on earth would such a person be willing to accept her as a partner? It was obvious that she would never be able to be sincere to him.

After a lesson...

"Hehehe, you are so blind that I didn't recognize you as a redhead..." The pirate leader with a bruised nose and swollen face smiled and knelt in front of Shanks while rubbing his hands and knees, with the younger brothers behind him. He was working hard with a rag to wipe the footprints on the wooden door that had been kicked by their boss.

"It's okay, after all, I'm not that famous, hahaha!" Shanks laughed loudly: "Keep your eyes open next time and don't cause trouble!"

"That's what you said!" The pirate leader immediately echoed with an apologetic smile, glancing secretly at Sylphis who was looking out the window in a daze, and quickly looked away.

The nervous pirates quickly finished cleaning up and did not go far after leaving the bar, but stayed not far away.

"Captain, that's a red-haired man!" A frightened younger brother advised: "Do you really want to do this?"

"Look at how coward you are!" The captain with a bruised nose and face turned around and punched him on the head, snorting disdainfully: "There is no woman on the red-haired ship. That girl is probably from the bar. She took advantage of the red-haired man to leave. Go catch her again!"

How dare you embarrass them so much, what would it be like to go back without revenge!

"But that boss lady is not easy to mess with." Another boy who was beaten by Xia Qi after eating the Overlord meal touched the wounds on his face. He had just passed out and didn't know that it was Sylphis who got them out of the bar. outside.

"So many of us are afraid of her as a woman?" The captain glared at him, forgetting that he was afraid of the red hair. After all, he was once a crew member of the Pirate King. Could it be that more than a dozen of them couldn't beat a bar owner's wife? !

"But Captain, even if you are just a little girl, is it really that easy to catch someone who is still here without any trouble?" Finally, a younger brother with a clear mind spoke up.

The captain hesitated for a moment. To be honest, no one could look down upon someone who could pass through the Grand Line and reach the entrance of the new world alive. But they were unlucky enough to encounter Shanks.

That little girl who looks so frail, dares to dress so beautifully here and show that one-of-a-kind face, there is no guarantee that she has some means or backing.

What dared him to have bad thoughts was of course not just the desire for revenge and the fact that Sylphis's appearance was really exciting, but also the information he had just heard on the underground black market.

"If the information is correct, that girl is worth 300 million." The captain said solemnly. The most lacking thing when going out to explore is money. It would be best if you could get such a large bounty.

Besides, if she is really the pharmacist, then she has nothing to fear except the medicine, as long as she catches the opportunity to be alone.

The younger brother who just went to the underground black market together said: "Boss, how are you sure she is the magic pharmacist?"

"I spent money to inquire about internal information, and I heard that someone once saw a strand of hair exposed by the pharmacist, which was the same silver hair as that girl." The captain gritted his teeth and affirmed: "Even if the bounty cannot be directly handed over to the Tianlong people, in the future Judging from her face, she would be worth more than a few million at auction!"

The group of people who were determined to capture and sell Sylphis continued to squat outside the door, waiting for Shanks to leave the bar.
