Pirates, Start with the vampire fruit and rescue the empress

Kingdom of Dressrosa, palace, kitchen.

Scarlet, who was wearing a light yellow dress and a pink apron, was humming a tune cheerfully while making a sumptuous lunch.

At the door of the kitchen, Violet cautiously poked half of her head out. She looked at her sister in surprise.

At this moment, King Riku passed by in the corridor. The black-haired girl quickly pulled her father to her side. She whispered:

“Look, my sister is actually cooking…”

“What kind of wind is this blowing?”

Seeing this scene, King Liku also had a surprised expression on his face, and there was some inexplicable emotion in his tone.

It’s not that Scarlett can’t cook, or that she can only cook dark dishes or something…

On the contrary, the food she cooked was delicious!

However, since Scarlet needs to learn all kinds of etiquette and knowledge necessary for the royal family every day, she does not have much spare time. In addition, she does not like to make her clothes dirty and oily, so she I rarely cook…

Even King Riku, who is Scarlet’s father, can only eat the food she cooks in a year!

Out of curiosity, Violet used her superhuman “Glare Fruit” ability.

She raised her right index finger and thumb, and the tips of the two fingers touched each other, forming a circle-like gesture of “OK gesture”, and a thin layer of purple film-like substance appeared instantly.

The black-haired girl’s right eye penetrated the purple film and read Scarlet’s thoughts at this moment.

【If you want to capture a man’s heart, you must first capture a man’s stomach…

The bento I made for Sephiroth will definitely impress him… huh? How about not frying two love eggs…

But wouldn’t this be too straightforward? …How about being more subtle?

But he will leave after completing the mission. If I don’t take the initiative, won’t I have no chance in the future…

Um! Um! That’s it, be decisive! You can Scarlet…

After he falls in love with me, we will get married directly and then have two babies…]

Suddenly!

Scenes of indescribable scenes suddenly appeared, making Violet put down her right hand with her face flushed in embarrassment.

Then, she pulled King Liku’s cloak, and the latter suddenly understood and squatted down.

“My sister has fallen in love with the navy brother who saved her yesterday, and…”

Listening to the words of the two women, King Liku’s face changed for a while, and his emotions were complicated and difficult to understand, with a mixture of sadness and joy.

He never expected that his little cotton-padded jacket would be abducted so soon! ?

wrong! It’s his daughter who wants to stick her up, but she doesn’t know if she will agree…

When he thought of this, King Riku suddenly felt even worse!

In the kitchen, Scarlett turned around and was about to pack the lunch box. After her eyes saw the two people sneaking at the door, she tilted her head and said with a puzzled look on her face:

“Eh!? Father, sister, why are you at the door…”

“Ahhh! We just happened to be passing by, passing by…hahaha!”

King Liku scratched his head in embarrassment. He took Violet’s hand and quickly left the kitchen door.

“baffling……”

The pink-haired girl muttered something in her mouth and quickly packed the lunch box.

…………

After separating from Violet, King Riku walked to the garden of the palace alone and upset.

He glanced casually and saw the burly Zefa.

The other party was standing next to the low wall of the garden. Taking advantage of the height of the palace building, he was overlooking the entire Dressrosa and had a panoramic view of everything in the country.

King Liku coughed lightly, walked to Zefa, and said:

“Ahem! General Zefa…I want to ask you…about Sephiroth…”

Hearing this, the purple-haired old man raised his eyebrows and said with confusion:

“Huh? Why did you suddenly ask about him?”

“Nothing… I just want to get to know him.”

“Sephiroth is such a brat!…

Among the many students I teach, in general, he is very praiseworthy. He has a high talent for cultivation, good strength, a very flexible mind, and works very hard…

There’s just one thing… that gives me a huge headache! ”

Hearing this, King Liku trembled, and he thought to himself.

focus

coming!

A person with so many advantages would be too perfect if he didn’t have one or two shortcomings!

“I can’t understand this brat… His attitude towards pirates is a bit too indifferent!”

“Huh!? General Zefa, what do you mean by this? Is your student Sephiroth not a righteous person…?”

King Liku frowned slightly, and his tone unconsciously brought a hint of worry.

“Huh? This…I didn’t make it clear, how should I say it!

I have a student, Sakaski, who is now a Vice Admiral in the Navy, and he pursues absolute justice.

He hates pirates deeply. Without orders from above, no pirate can survive in his hands…

Sephiroth’s situation is very similar, but different.

When he was killing the pirates, it seemed like…how to describe that feeling?

It feels as ordinary as eating and drinking, so natural and casual. You can kill him or not, it all depends on whether he needs it…

After thinking about it, I can only describe it as indifferent. ”

King Liku frowned and muttered:

“So is this a good thing or a bad thing…?”

Hearing this, Zefa shook his head with a wry smile, and murmured to himself:

“I don’t know either. We can only see how Sephiroth behaves in the future…”

What the two of them didn’t know was that the reason why Sephiroth was like this was simply because he killed too many pirates during his time as a pirate hunter in the Chambord Islands!

If you kill too much, you will become numb…

Sephiroth didn’t count the exact number of people he killed, but it was at least two to three thousand!

This horrific number of killings has exceeded that of most naval forces in the Navy Headquarters…

…………

Scarlett was holding a large lunch box in her hand. She had just walked a short distance away from the palace when a burly man followed quickly.

Then, the pink-haired girl suddenly turned around with a displeased expression and looked at Cyrus who was following her.

“Please don’t come near me!”

“But King Riku said, let me follow you to protect your safety and prevent what happened yesterday from happening again…”

“Then please, please stay three meters away from me!”

Scarlet finished speaking angrily, then shook her face, turned around, and continued walking towards the street in the distance.

She has always disliked Cyrus…

Ten years ago, Cyrus was just a gangster from the slums, fighting and wandering the streets all day long.

Once, his gangster friend was beaten to death because of a fight!

So, he took a wooden stick with nails and beat the murderer to death. Scarlet’s father, King Riku, was also hit on the forehead with a wooden stick, leaving a hideous scar.

However, King Liku did not directly execute Cyrus, but imprisoned the latter in the gladiator arena and turned him into a prisoner gladiator.

Moreover, King Riku also promised the other party that after he wins 40 consecutive victories, he can regain his freedom.

During this period, Scarlett also went to watch a duel between Cyrus. The opponent’s ferocious demeanor, like a beast, left a big shadow in her heart when she was young.

However……

What is surprising is that after this guy achieved 40 consecutive wins, he did not leave the arena, but continued to stay there, and stayed there for 9 years, winning 3,000 games in a row without losing a single game.

Unknowingly, with Cyrus’ victory, he changed from a murderer to a popular man in the kingdom.

Originally, Scarlet had always been indifferent to what this person was like.

but……

A year ago, Cyrus used some unknown means to sneak into the king’s army and became the army commander.

The shadow in her heart when she was a child, coupled with the scar on King Riku’s forehead, kept reminding Scarlet, making her wary of Cyrus, and she never wanted to see him, thinking that he was just pretending to be her. His true face is that he has evil intentions.

Scarlet believes that one day, when Cyrus achieves his goal, he will reveal his true colors in private.

After Cyrus was reprimanded, due to his responsibilities, he could only carefully follow Scarlett three meters behind, guarding against possible dangers…
