Chapter 18 The Flute of the Crescent Moon

Polusalino was awakened by a scream that changed his tune.

Opening his eyes, he stood up suddenly from the lying position, subconsciously trying to put on a defensive posture, but the next second, the picture received by his vision suddenly pierced into his mind, and he was stunned all of a sudden.

The sky was only bright, and it was less than two hours before he closed his eyes to rest. Last night, several men were in charge of the night watch respectively. At this time, Polusalino felt that he had just lay down for a short time...

Staring blankly at the thousand-year-old who rushed towards him, Polusalino, who was a little confused, became even more dizzy.

Her hair was disheveled, her slender eyelashes were trembling with half-condensed tears, her cherry lips were slightly parted, and she looked like she was about to cry...In an instant, the soft fragrance of nephrite fell on her body.

"嘤嘤嘤~" She wept softly, her voice sweet and soft.

Great happiness fell from the sky... ╮(╯▽╰)╭.

The commotion had already caused the others to wake up at the same time. Zefa and Triton, who were sleeping peacefully on the outermost side of the camp, took the lead in reflexively darting around to check for movement.

After a while, the two who hadn't noticed the enemy turned back one after another, and their eyes fell on Polusalino, their expressions slightly strange for a while.

After two seconds of silence, Polusalino maintained his composure and stared at the original instigators, One and Two.

One of the instigators who caused Chitose to flee screaming early in the morning, Sakaski looked back blankly, half squatting next to the place where Chitose was supposed to sleep peacefully.

Presumably, Sakaski, who was in charge of the last vigil, sneaked up to Chitose Baisui while the others were asleep.

Then----

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and Polusalino turned his eyes away from condemning Sakalski, and his eyes moved a few times to his shoulders.

A boy named Qiuqiu was caught in the forest yesterday, and he squatted on the shoulder of his classmate. With round eyes and a hairy head, he looked very innocent.

That person has one... Thinking about it with his knees, Polusalino can guess it, Sakaski quietly touched Chitose Baitui, and then took the ball...

Qiuqiu, the priceless cub on the list of rare animals, the rare animal that young girls can't put it down... The hair ball that can scare thousands of years old and flee, was deliberately brought to her by Sakasky, taking advantage of she fell asleep.

Knowing that she has a phobia of cats, she takes revenge on Qiuqiu, who looks like a cat.

First of all, she was upset that she gave them the "disliked" nature-type devil fruit.

Secondly, it was because she was angry that she decided to give up the internship and go to take risks without authorization.

Well~ Sakaski is such a black-hearted guy who joined the navy at the same time, Polusalino and Sakaski, they still know each other well, ╮(╯﹏╰)╭.

Regarding Chitose Baisui's actions last night, Sakaski's mentality and decision were the same as Polusalino's. The two men among the three companions, no matter what, wanted to be closer.

After he figured it out, Polusalino felt his temples throbbing, and he raised his hand to touch his forehead, when he suddenly remembered that this move was inappropriate, because his head was very heavy—very heavy—

……

It was very quiet—

very quiet--

very quiet--

After a long time, Triton finally came back to his senses, coughed, opened his mouth, turned his eyes around a few times, and then suddenly turned his face away, his shoulders trembling suspiciously.

Afterwards, Qiantui Baisui, who was crying endlessly, stopped and hiccupped softly.

Polusalino forced his stomach to get up, and said in a slow voice, trying to maintain his rationality, "Come down, Baisui."

"No!" She replied firmly, and moved a little bit by the way.

There was a snap, something seemed to break in my mind, I took several deep breaths, and finally couldn't bear it any longer, Polusalino raised his hand, grabbed her ankle precisely without looking, and threw her out violently with his wrist, The direction is where she was originally sleeping.

Although Chitose Centenarian's first reaction when encountering danger was to run to him for safety, which made Polusalino very happy, but... the prerequisite is that she can't squat on his head with all four limbs!

The alluring beauties came and squatted on his head, needless to say, their posture was exactly the same as that of the boy squatting on Sakalski's shoulders. This scene was so strange that Polusalino said he couldn't stand it.

He was healthy and strong before going to bed, but he would have a stiff neck when he woke up...

Thousands of years, Sakaski, and Qiuqiu, both of them are assholes! (#‵′) Convex.

……

Caught off guard, Qiantui Baisui rushed towards Sakaski along a parabola, and the next second, she suddenly reacted and let out an even more miserable scream.

The body is in the air, the hands are flapping, and then the waist is twisted for no reason, and the track is changed in vain, turning at an angle close to [-] degrees, and the whole person flings to the other side.

"Teacher Zefa, beeping~"

Polusalino, who was watching this scene with a smile on his face, sank his eyes, picked up a small stone, and flicked it out with his fingertips, heading towards the forehead of the guy who was crying with a strange trembling sound.

In an instant, accompanied by a short and sharp sound of piercing through the air, the stone that shot away could almost cut into the line that Qiansui and Baisui rushed forward.

One second before his wish came true, the person being attacked volleyed back like a fully drawn bow, flipped 360 degrees, fell suddenly, and avoided it precisely.

"The ability to stay in the air and the cataclysmic reflex are both good." Witnessing Qiantose Baisui's actions, Triton praised slightly in his tone, "It seems that Durand taught you the basics of the six moves, and your aptitude is indeed very good."

Paused, then suddenly raised his elbow and poked it to the side for some reason, Triton's smile was covered with a bit of treachery, "Right? Ze~fa~old~teacher~"

After a short silence, Zefa who was questioned with a smile nodded, "Yeah." The tone was neither salty nor weak, but the tone seemed gentle.

As soon as he finished speaking, a faint blush appeared on the face of the thousand-year-old who was standing in front of the two of them. He raised his eyes and quickly glanced at Zefa, looking extremely beautiful.

"I'm... afraid of cats~" She turned her face slightly shyly and timidly, and peeked at the corners of her eyes for a while, speaking hesitantly, her voice trembling, "I will bite me~"

"It can be seen." Triton's expression became even weirder, his eyes half a smile, "If you weren't afraid, why would you jump at Polusalino, who has never been in a match?"

This bastard who is a thousand years old is blushing like a blind date, with his hands behind his back, and his fingers are still twisted together!Simply inexcusable!Polusalino snorted coldly, then turned his gaze to the two instructors who cast their gazes over, and said in a loud voice, "Yeah, how could Baisui be at odds with me?"

"We're already companions~"

If it weren't for the old guys in the headquarters who have been eating and drinking for a long time, the relationship and bond between her and them will become more profound in the next few days.

Slowly narrowing his eyes, the strangeness in Polusalino's eyes was fleeting.

……

It started early in the morning with endless noise.

Polusalino, who was deprived of sleep, said that he was severely mentally ill, but unfortunately he couldn't lie back and continue to catch up on sleep. The biological clock deliberately developed in recent years did not allow it.

With no other choice, Polusalino had no choice but to support his heavy head, got up staggeringly, grabbed the energetic Qiansui Baisui, and dragged him towards the stream.

After a few people washed up, they used the leftover barbecue and fruit from last night for breakfast. At this time, the first ray of sunlight was just projected from the treetops in the forest on the opposite bank.

Tritton contacted the warship moored in the nearby waters at night with a phone call, and confirmed that the time of arrival was one hour later, and then announced that the route to meet was the same as when he came last night, going downstream along the bank of the stream until Arrive at the mouth of the sea.

It didn't take much time to pack up the camping traces, and the group set off immediately.

Leaving the flat rocky beach where we stayed overnight, we passed through a large area of ​​rough rocks covered with tall grass, and entered a section of twists and turns.

The lush vegetation grows overwhelmingly, and the dense plants extend to the near-water shoal, covering layer upon layer. Sometimes you can’t even see where you can step down. You have to wade through the water. The stones that are not in the water are soaked for a long time. It is smooth, and part of it is covered with moss. When you step on the soles of military boots, you will feel shaking accidentally.

Walking downstream along the bank of the stream, it seemed quiet along the way. Occasionally, a gust of wind would pass by the treetops, and you could vaguely see the colorful patterns lurking in the dense forest on the opposite side.

Polusalino yawned as he walked, holding Chitose tightly in his hands, preventing her from running to Zefa and Triton in front with a happy face.

Zefa and Triton were very fast, but perhaps because they were behind them, they slowed down every once in a while, and occasionally turned their heads and waited for them to follow.

And Qiansui Baisui is always very excited at that time, and can't wait to rush forward.

So at times like that, Polusalino is in charge of physically hitting her, pulling her hand, or squeezing her... uh, there's no hair on the head and heart, but she has a ponytail .

It is oily and smooth, and feels very good. He expressed his satisfaction, <( ̄︶ ̄)/.

If he couldn't suppress it, Polusalino would turn his head and look at Sakaski, who was walking at the end of the line and was in charge of guarding. The ball rests on a certain head.

And, before Chitose screamed, Polusalino would quickly cover her mouth with his eyes.

……

Speeding all the way, within the scheduled time, far away, at the end of the tortuous stream is the vast and infinite ocean under the clear blue sky. The fresh water that divides the forest into two meanders out from the depths of the island and slowly flows into it.

But the field of vision was farther away, a huge grayish-white warship was floating among the waves, and about half a nautical mile away, several flat-bottomed boats slowly rowed across the shallow sea full of coral reefs, heading towards the island.

Polusalino tightened his ponytail again, and said with a hoarse laugh, "Yeah, someone is a hundred years old, so you can't attack Teacher Zefa now~ It will damage the teacher's reputation."

When she stared at him out of the corner of her eyes, he bent down a little more, lowered his voice extremely low, almost to the level of a whisper, and said slowly, "Because Teacher Zefa is a (married) man~ "

The moment his voice fell, her eyes changed slightly, and her complexion suddenly turned pale. Seeing this, Polusalino raised the corners of his mouth and smiled even worse. Of course he would not say, in fact, the former general, the black-armed Zefa, is now alone. all over.

Being married is different from being married, but would he say it?Of course not.

"Okay, don't cry~" Let go of the braids in his hand, raise his hand, and brush his fingers across the corners of her eyes, Polusalino narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "When you cry, the eye circles and eyebrows turn red , like a child, you are a hundred years old."

When she slapped his hand away and walked forward with puffed cheeks as if sulking, Polusalino turned his face indifferently, and smiled at the classmate standing quietly behind him, "It's so cute, Right? Sakalski."

Then, the other party returned him a contemptuous white eye.

……Dividing line……

The warship waiting off the coast was named Ceylon, the name of a kind of black tea, and the commander was Brigadier General Triton.

It is said that the generals of the Navy headquarters always like to name warships after their favorite objects, but Polusalino declined to comment on this.

Crossed the shallow waters of the coral reef in a flat-bottomed boat, climbed the rope ladder to board the Ceylon, followed Zefa and Commodore Triton, entered the interior of the warship for a short time, and then walked deeper all the way.

Gradually, Polusalino felt something was wrong.

What to say?

Staring at the two generals, Triton and Zefa, who were walking side by side more than ten meters ahead, Polusalino narrowed his eyes slightly.

If the mission of this voyage is according to what Brigadier General Triton said, it is to protect His Majesty Atashata, the former king of Dumuzi, before going to the center of Maryjoa, and then divert to the waters between Atlanta and Gaugamela.

And yesterday, the mission was suspended again, and I came to look for Qiantui Baisui, then...

The level of security inside the Ceylon...seems a little too much.

The long corridor is paved with a scarlet carpet, and it is almost silent when you step on it with your toes. There is a navy soldier standing every few meters on both sides, armed with live ammunition, with a solemn expression.

In such a turbulent atmosphere, the warship...is there any big man on board?

Commodore Triton's USS Ceylon is a frigate. Normally, when performing escort missions, the USS Ceylon serves as one of the two wings for guard patrol and support protection. The protected object should be placed on the destroyer at the core of the fleet. .

But as you can see along the way, the Ceylon...

……

Passing through this long corridor, the closed door at the end was pushed open by the soldiers guarding on both sides. After a while, Polusalino stepped into it, glanced at the room, and immediately resolved the doubts in his heart .

This is a lobby, the layout of which has obviously been changed temporarily and is magnificent, and the rich spices from burning are suffocating.

The crystal chandelier hangs down, under the dim light, a half-person tall phonograph in the corner emits soft music, and the most popular actresses sing softly, lingering love songs floating.

From the bottom of the feet, a gilded carpet with intricate patterns is spread from one end to the other, and at the end, facing the hall door, is a throne inlaid with gold and jade.

A man who hangs himself like a jewelry shelf is sitting on it, wearing a golden brocade robe, with a vaguely frightened expression on his face, his eyes are falling on the two generals, and he has no time to pay attention to the man who is also walking towards him. them.

However, Zefa and Triton, who are deeply concerned, are both extremely indifferent. Triton can barely maintain the etiquette of a commodore general, and Zefa doesn't even bother to put on a perfunctory gesture.

After looking at the strange man without any trace, Polusalino immediately looked away, looked around, and soon fell on the other two people in the hall.

One is a man standing behind the left side of the throne with a rather calm demeanor.

The other one is on the right side of the throne, sitting on a chair of the same precious grade. She is about 20 years old by visual inspection. Although she has a beautiful appearance, she can't hide the melancholy between her brows and her faint sickness.

……

In a flash of thought, Polusalino had already guessed the identities of the three of them. The one on the throne was probably the subjugated king of Domuzi, and the one standing beside him must be the left minister of Domuzi, Atta. Bagua, the prime minister trusted by Shata.

As for that woman... After thinking about it for a while, Polusalino was unable to analyze her identity from the information, but he certainly couldn't get rid of her identity as the concubine in the huge harem of Ata Shata.

The former king of Dumuzi, Ata Shata has no queen, because the number of women in the harem is too large... Uh~ probably the struggle was so fierce that His Majesty the King currently has no children.

However——Looking lightly at the woman's abdomen, Polusalino probably understood why Atashata, who fled in a panic, was able to take her with him.

……

"Master Brigadier General..."

The man's slightly frightened voice brought Polusalino back to his senses, and his gaze focused on the face of the man sitting on the throne. As soon as the two eyes met, the other party immediately avoided it. His blue eyes were nearly dark, and the pupils were slightly enlarge.

The courage is really...too small~ No wonder the rebels were so frightened that they abandoned the city and fled.

The corners of his lips pursed slightly, and then Polusalino heard Brigadier General Triton say in a deep voice, "Is there anything else? Your Majesty Atashata."

Although the title used was considered respectful, the tone seemed disapproving.

Triton's attitude was indifferent and casual, obviously looking down on the other party, and already feeling impatient because of this person's rambling about the security of the guards just now.

If someone from the center was present at this moment, they would immediately accuse the general of the Navy headquarters of being too indifferent to the king of a country, but, in Polusalino's view, Commodore Triton's move was understandable.

Because there is nothing worthy of respect for this king of subjugation.

Half a month ago, Brigadier General Tritton left Marineford, and the demise of the Dumuzi dynasty appeared in the newspapers immediately.

Atashata, the former king fled without warning when the imperial court was in turmoil. He didn't even take the loyal guards with him. From the tunnel, he drove a group of slaves to carry treasures, bring a woman, and the only minister. .

It was also his departure that led to the destruction of a dynasty that had been passed down for hundreds of years. He was so irresponsible, and it was an embarrassment to the royal family of Dumuzi.

……

After a while, the former king of Atashata said in a bumpy voice, "Uh, why don't you introduce me? These three—" His eyes flickered when he spoke, and his expression was a little distorted.

"Ah—let them decide." Triton waved his hand, then turned his head and curled the corners of his mouth sarcastically, "This is the former king of Dumuzi, Ata Shata."

"Yeah, I've heard about your name for a long time." Polusalino lazily raised his eyelids and smiled, but he refused to say anything after that, turned his face away again, embraced Qiansui Baisui beside him with one hand, and interrupted her first.

"Your braid is unraveled, idiot." As he said, he pulled the man into his arms, and tugged at the loose ponytail with the other hand, "Where are the flowers on the scrunchie?"

When she raised her head and stared at him, he gave her a look, signaling her to put away her gaze that had been scrutinizing Atashata for a long time.

For some reason, Qiantui Baisui has been looking at the former king since she came in. Although she was blocked by him for most of her body, and other people standing in front could not see her, their instructors must be able to see her. noticed something different.

Although I don't know what Qiantose Baisui's plan is, before realizing it, Polusalino thinks it's better not to let her disturb the unimportant people.

"I was torn apart by you!" As soon as she raised her hand to stroke her hair, she immediately began to grind her teeth angrily, "That's what I like very much, I want compensation!"

"Yeah~ no compensation~" Polusalino smiled at her with an unusually good temper, then let go of his right hand and put it into his trousers pocket, took out a small object from inside, and shook it in front of her eyes, "I picked it up for you~"

"Give it back to me!" She wanted to snatch it back, but he quickly raised her hand to stagger her away. She tiptoed to reach for her hand several times but failed, so she glared at him angrily, but didn't speak.

Deliberately shaking the small object held by his fingertips, Polusalino raised the topic again, "The flowers in this hairband are the hometown of a hundred years old, right?

"In the custom of Beihai, you can kiss while standing under the parasite~"

……

"Beihai?" Atashata's voice interjected/entered obliquely, "Does Xiejisheng have such a cute metaphor?"

Frowning slightly, Polusalino squinted at the rude man from the corner of his eyes, and then found that the other party's gaze was fixed on Chitose Baisui, with an unpleasant look in his eyes.

"Xiejisheng, oh~ in other places it usually symbolizes hope and abundance."

"There are also some countries where it is a representative of bad luck."

Stammering and speaking incomprehensible words, the former king stood up from the throne, his eyes widened, his facial features twisted into a ball, like a mental patient, "This beautiful lady is from the North Sea? There is a world of ice and snow..."

For some reason, the ex-king became more and more excited as he spoke, stepped off the throne, and ran forward stumblingly, "Evergreen parasites, red berries..."

"His Majesty Atashata."

"His Majesty!"

At the moment Ata Shata passed by, Triton raised his arm to stop him, and spoke at the same time as the former prime minister behind the throne. Because of the astonishing move of the subjugated king, Zefa, who was originally indifferent, A few traces of anger appeared between his brows.

Polusalino pulled up the inexplicable thousand-year-old man, quickly pushed the man behind him, raised one eyebrow, and stared at the man who was obviously trying to rush over a few meters away.

When he realized that even if the other party was blocked, his eyes were still fixed on the direction where Qiansui was hiding behind him, Polusalino's eyes suddenly became murderous, "Yeah~ Your Majesty the King, have you forgotten? Isn't everyone here? The inner courtyard of Muzi Palace."

Just at this moment, Sakaski, who was standing at the back, suddenly took a step forward and stood side by side with Polusalino. The two of them met slightly out of the corners of their eyes, and saw similar meanings from each other's sight. : Although she is a strong and second hag, she is still their companion.

Those who dared to pounce on them in front of them, the former king of Dumuzi must be impatient!
