Abducted a pirate hunter

Facing the reward notice in front of him, Mihawk frowned and stared at it for a while, then glanced at Sylphis, who also frowned and looked up at the bulletin board. She was staring intently at her own reward notice. make.

There are no photos on the reward order, only a text description and the amount of the reward.

Sylphis raised her hand, and before taking action, she turned her head and looked around to see if anyone had noticed her little move. However, their combination really attracted attention, and several lines of sight seemed to surround them. Faith had no choice but to put down her hand and gave up the idea of ​​changing the text.

Instead, she began to look around. Using magic to tamper with the bounty order was not her main purpose. There must be some information that she had not noticed.

Sylphis, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly walked out. Mihawk knew that she had been listening to the discussions in the hall, but the environment was so noisy that it was difficult to distinguish most of the news, and he didn't know who she was. What message was captured.

Mihawk didn't take the initiative to ask. It wasn't until he left the black market and Mihawk casually knocked down several waves of pirates who followed him sneakily that Sylphis took the initiative and said, "I want to go to the No. 1 tree."

"Now?" Mihawk looked at the gradually turning red sky.

"No, there is no need to go there until the day after tomorrow. I will let Shanks take me there." Sylphy paused for a moment, then grabbed his windbreaker and asked carefully: "If he doesn't take me there, you can secretly Take me there?"

Although she is not good at getting along with Mihawk, she feels that it is safer to go with someone else. She has been used to being protected over the past year. She always feels uneasy without someone around to support her, which really hinders her from being arrogant. After all, if there was a fight, she would be even worse at it.

Sylphis complained quite a bit about Shanks. She obviously traveled alone in the past and never lost a fight. Shanks' over-protection made her afraid to run around by herself now!

Mihawk didn't agree immediately and stared at her with a heavy gaze.

Seeing that he just stared at her without speaking, Sylphis, who realized something, thought for a moment and told him the information he had just overheard: "I heard that the slave auction house will have rare species for auction the day after tomorrow, and the world's nobles will also If I go, I can take the opportunity to find the Celestial Dragons who have put a reward on me."

Mihawk had a lot of problems. How did she accurately capture the news in the noisy environment just now? How did she know that the Tianlong people who put a reward on her would also go? What is she going to do when she finds someone?

But he didn't ask. After hearing her answer, he just said indifferently: "It's time to go back." He walked away.

Silphis was stunned for a moment, then caught up with him and grabbed his windbreaker and asked, "Wait a minute, you haven't promised me yet!"

Mihawk still didn't speak. If she had to go, Shanks would probably rather take her there than let him follow her. He felt that answering this question was meaningless, so he chose to remain silent.

Sylphis followed him reluctantly, but Mihawk was so stunned that he didn't say a word along the way.

So the few people who were waiting anxiously outside the bar saw the girl clutching the man's windbreaker and chattering non-stop. The man was expressionless but deliberately slowed down his pace as he walked in front.

Before she realized that the man's windbreaker was about to be scratched by her, Sylphis was suddenly frightened by a shout. She raised her eyes and looked at the red-haired man striding towards them. Sylphis hurriedly hid behind Mihawk. Behind him, his hands were holding the other person's windbreaker tightly.

Shanks, who met Garp on the way, returned to the tavern and stood anxiously outside. From time to time, he looked into the distance to confirm whether the person was back. His fists hanging at his sides were clenched tightly until he saw the two figures appearing in his field of vision. Feeling guilty, he let go of his hand and rushed up quickly, but saw the girl trembling and quickly hiding behind others, not daring to look at him.

Shanks' footsteps paused imperceptibly, and the words he was about to blurt out swirled around his lips, and he instantly decided to play dumb.

Exchanging glances with Mihawk, Shanks rushed forward anxiously to grab Sylphis, who was exposed because Mihawk turned sideways. Sylphis, who was a little nervous, opened his mouth. Be prepared to find some excuse to explain her sudden disappearance.

Shanks interrupted her first, his voice full of concern: "Ciel! Are you okay? There are so many people, I should have taken good care of you, but I didn't expect that you were separated in the blink of an eye!"

Sylvester blinked in surprise and looked hesitantly at Shanks, who looked panicked. Didn't he realize that he had separated from them on purpose?

Faced with Shanks' anxious and self-reproaching look, Sylphis choked for a long time before uttering an apology: "I'm sorry... for making you worry." The nervousness on his face turned into deep guilt.

Everyone in the red group stood there dumbfounded and watched their captain's performance. Jesus put his hands on his chest and sighed, giving a thumbs up to his back: "The boss's performance is realistic enough."

Following the two of them out, De Ge also knew that Sylphis had deliberately strayed away. He looked at Sylphis with complicated eyes as he was being held by his own captain. Shanks had always been fooled by Sylphis. All kinds of disgust, but unexpectedly, after Shanks consciously did it, Sylphis was suppressed all of a sudden.

Lloyd put his backhand on the back of his neck with the same complicated expression. They knew that although Sylphis was not a kind-hearted character with a Virgin mentality, she would still feel guilty if it was because of her own fault, but they would not even think of it if they beat him to death. Shanks will take advantage of her.

Beckman held a piece of grass in his mouth and looked at it for a while, then looked at the two of them and asked, "What stimulation did he receive during this trip?"

"It's quite exciting..." Lloyd said with a complicated mood.

De Ge shrugged and said, "I suddenly became enlightened."

Beckman was puzzled by their words. He looked up at Sylphis who was being held down by Shanks and was looking at the person in front of him carefully with his eyebrows furrowed. He frowned slightly, not knowing whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

Let’s ask Shanks later.

After dinner, Sylphis rolled on the bed holding her head. It was over. In the situation just now, she really couldn't say anything about going to the auction.

She didn't expect that Shanks would blame himself for her loss and act so self-blame. How could she have the nerve to make such arbitrary demands... Why don't she just go to Mihawk?

But...Sylphis sat up and crossed her arms, thinking. If Shanks found out that she went to an illegal auction without telling him, he would probably be worried again, right?

……wrong!

After all, why does she care so much about what Shanks thinks!

He is not his guardian, and the other crew members will not report to Shanks one by one where they are going!

The more she thought about it, the more something was wrong. Sylphis rubbed his head vigorously, his long hair was messed up by her, and he lay flat again with his arms stretched out.

It's so annoying... Getting along with humans is indeed a very tiring thing, and she doesn't want to think about it anymore.

After Sylphis went back to his room to rest, Beckman approached Shanks. Mihawk glanced at him, got up and walked away. He probably knew what they were going to talk about, and he didn't want to listen to it because he was too lazy to care about it.

When Shanks saw Mihawk suddenly getting up and leaving, he turned around and saw Beckman holding a wine bottle. Beckman raised the bottle in his hand and said, "Let's talk, Shanks."

Shanks grinned: "Okay."

Early the next morning, Sylvester bit his bread sleepily and secretly glanced at Shanks, whose face was radiant. No matter what, he had to mention the auction to him today.

"Shanks, are you in a good mood today?" Rayleigh asked early in the morning while drinking from a bottle.

"That's right!" Shanks chuckled and patted the pale Beckman who was pressing his temple beside him with great joy: "I figured something out, thanks to Beckman."

"..." Beckman glanced at him with a melancholy look, not wanting to speak.

"He doesn't seem to be feeling well," Reilly said meaningfully.

Beckman waved his hand and said in an erratic tone: "It's okay, I just drank too much and am hungover."

"What's going on?" When my companion heard this, he turned around and shouted: "Beckman, if you are hungover, ask Hill to get hangover medicine!"

"...No, just let me get drunk..." Beckman said weakly.

The crew member's voice was loud, but Sylphis, who was immersed in his own thoughts, didn't hear it. Xia Qi glanced at her, and then at the two people in front of her who were in completely different mental states, with the same meaningful smile.

"I'm a little curious, what did you talk about last night?" Xia Qi asked with a smile.

Beckman remained silent, rolled his eyes and felt helpless to complain. Shanks burst out laughing. Rayleigh, who ran out last night, had a confused look on his face: "Were you talking about anything interesting last night? Don't Just for your own enjoyment, tell me and let me hear it!"

"Farewell, old man." Beckman propped his head on the table and turned half of his face to persuade, "You may have raised your blood pressure."

Look at his example!

"That's not okay. I still have to control it." Rayleigh stopped pestering him as soon as he heard this. What should be known will be known anyway.

"Hey~ Why doesn't it look right?" Lloyd stroked his chin and looked at Beckman, whispering to De Ge: "Beckman's reaction...it seems like the content of the conversation was not what we thought?"

"Hmm... maybe the boss's brain is lost again?" De Ge also put his hand to his mouth and whispered: "Should I show the boss's brain?"

"But the boss looks very happy?" Jesus Bu, who was sitting next to them, was close enough to hear the conversation even though they were talking in low voices. He pointed at the silly Shanks: "That's not a reaction of enlightenment. ?"

"That's right... I originally thought so, but Beckman's reaction is really doubtful. Shouldn't he be looking at his boss with a look of relief?" Lloyd hesitated.

The three of them were puzzled. They were thinking about whether to ask Beckman. Sylphis, who was sitting opposite them, finally raised his head after thinking: "What have you been secretly saying since just now?"
