A small, cheerful laugh rang out.

The dark tavern is a familiar place for Akiga, but now it's a world for two.

Mingga stood still, looking away from them and seeing darkness ahead.

They're pirates, and I'm just a small town girl.

Minghe felt strange, and suddenly there was a feeling of emptiness.

She remembered that she had said she would be their friend and partner.

So am I a pirate or a member of this town now?Minghe

looked down and thought about it, maybe this was why he couldn't sleep.

"What should Mingga do?" asked Luffy's voice.

Ming He raised his head violently, and his heart suddenly beat very fast.

"She'll decide. She could decide whether to go with us or stay.

"She can go if she wants, stay here if she wants, we won't force her, pirates are free and can't be directed by anyone."

"I will respect any decision made by Aega because she is our friend.

"When Aega said she wanted to be my friend, I accepted her as the captain. Whether she's on my ship or not, she'll always be my friend.

Luffy's words surprised Akiga, and her eyes seemed to sparkle with joy.

"Mu Long, you're with me, aren't you? You admit that Minghe is your friend.

"Well, yes. After

the patching was done, the dragon put the straw hat on Luffy's head.

He did not resist, nor was he shy, and accepted happily.

Mingga decided to go back to his room, lowered his footsteps, and climbed the stairs.

Smoothly returned to the room, slowly opened the door, did not make any sound, walked in, and quietly closed the door, grandma Yukiyo was still asleep.

Akiga wanted to go back to bed, when a sword placed in the corner of the room came into view.

Minghe was stunned: In order to eliminate pirates, I train every day. But when the time came, he couldn't do anything but be saved by two new friends outside.

What did I do in that battle?

The attitude of the townspeople was that they were glad they weren't hurt, but I wasn't

!!!

Minghe took the sword leaning against the wall, held it in his arms, and lay weakly on the sheets.

Dark room, staring at the ceiling.

This is the town and room where I spent my childhood.

Abandoned by pirates as a child.

As a child, I loved adventures about pirates.

As he grew older, he became aware of the existence of pirates and worked harder to hone his swordsmanship.

Minghe finally cleared his mind, looked at the ceiling and whispered, "Grandma, are you awake?"

She knew that her grandmother was asleep, but she still wanted to say.

Minghe said in a calm voice, determined: "You know... I've decided. The

gloom in his chest disappeared, and Minghe felt refreshed and strangely sleepy.

After only a few seconds, Minghe began to breathe calmly.

She fell asleep with her sword in her arms, without a blanket.

...

At this time of year, the days are warm, but the nights are a bit chilly.

Although she usually dresses appropriately, today she looks like a tomboy like she did when she was younger. Including that sleeping face, it seems to have really returned to childhood.

Looking at her, Grandma Yukiyo slowly stood up.

Yukiyo picked up the blanket that had fallen from the side of the bed and carefully and gently covered her.

Yukiyo didn't take her sword and let her hold it.

Seeing that she was asleep innocently, Yukiyo smiled kindly and returned to his bed.

Yukiyo was not surprised, she knew that this day would come sooner or later.

...

As the surroundings begin to brighten, fog envelops the town and the sea.

The sun had not yet risen, and the town continued to sleep, leaving behind the exhaustion of last night.

Among them, two black shadows secretly got up and began to act.

A drowsy Luffy walked out of the door of the inn and stood on the street, repeating a big yawn.

The two were about to leave before the townsfolk woke up.

It all started with Luffy's words.

Before going to bed, he urged Mulong to go on an adventure as soon as possible and try to get up early to go to sea.

However, when it was time to get up, Luffy couldn't overcome his sleepiness and couldn't open his eyes.

Even now, when he walks, he still staggers.

Mu Long sighed, walked over to him who was about to hit the wall, and patted him on the cheek with his hand.

"Hey Luffy, wake up. It's a fun adventure. "

Hmm~, Nimiyi..."

"You said it yourself, you can sleep on the ship, now you have to walk on your own." "

Hungry...."Luffy's mind didn't seem to be in reality, and Mu Long smiled bitterly.

The inactive town has a desolate feel.

The air was a little cold, but that didn't work for Luffy, who was half-asleep.

The port was close to the inn and it was quick to arrive.

The boat was ready last night.

During the feast, Mu Long met with the shipbuilder, and in order to thank the two for saving the town, the shipbuilder gave them the ship for free.

It's like another form of plunder, but it doesn't bring any bad reputation.

What Mulong received was a small sailing boat that could be used spaciously even if there were five people on board.

It only had one cabin, and although it had a mast and sails, it didn't look like a pirate at all.

We're going to sail as a pirate who doesn't look like a pirate for a while.

Mulong spotted the boat in the distance and patted the sleepy Luffy on the shoulder and said to him.

"Look. This is our ship.

"Hmm?"

"Since we're still two people, that's enough.

"I'm sure we'll find a good ship. "

While Mulong and Luffy were talking, they suddenly saw someone on their ship, even though she was hiding in the fog. A small figure stood with its back to them.

Both tilted their heads to look at each other at the same time.

"Where's the guy on our ship?" she

turned around so that the two of them could see her face clearly, and they couldn't help but laugh.

It was Minghe who stood on the boat with his hands on his hips and a smile.

"Hey, where are you going if you don't call me?"

"Ah, Minghe!"

"Haha, that's incredible. We don't think that's possible.

Minghe said to the surprised two.

"I'm going to follow. I'm also a pirate, aren't I

?" "Are you sure?" Mu Long couldn't help but say.

"Your treasure is this town, and it's here, isn't it? Once you've set sail, you never know when you'll be back. "

Well, it's okay, I've decided. "

You can see that her sword and a backpack are already on the boat.

Her determination was strong, and there was no hesitation in her eyes now.

There is no need to say a lot more.

Luffy smiled happily and shook his shoulders, and Ryu smiled softly.

"Come on, let's go. Are you ready?"

"Ready. Thanks to the help of the townspeople. "

Ushi, let's go!"

According to Luffy's order, the three of them boarded the ship and prepared to set sail.

A small boat, look around and see it in its entirety.

The Wrangling unravels and retrieves the rope that connects the harbor to the ship.

Mingga spread the sails in a familiar motion.

Soon, everything was ready, and Luffy loudly announced

, "Alright, let's set sail!".
