The Red Hair Pirates that scared the children
"Oh, little devil, you are so brave!"
Lime Jones stood next to Shanks, his eyes hidden by sunglasses, his face as cold as ice, with a smirk on his lips.
"How dare you attack us? Do you know who we are?" Gabu next to him also cooperated with his smile. His face was angular, with high cheekbones and a mouthful of sharp fangs. When he frowned, he looked even more hideous and terrifying, enough to scare many children to tears.
Lime Jones snorted coldly, "We are the Red Hair Pirates, who have been very popular recently. This is our captain, and the bounty on his head is a whopping 800 million berries."
Gabu continued with a cold face, "And this one, our vice-captain, has a bounty of 600 million berries."
"Do you think that with your ability, you can really control the bodies of us pirates?"
Lime Jones and Gab sang in unison, telling a series of fierce and evil stories, with threatening words, which frightened the boy so much that his face became paler and paler.
Merry was also stunned by what he heard. Without a doubt, he stared with wide eyes and exclaimed in his heart: Wow! This is too amazing!
I didn't expect they had done such terrible things!
As expected of Shanks and Beckman!
Shanks and Beckman stood on one side, their arms folded across their chests, their faces stern, their eyes filled with cold murderous intent, exuding a terrifying deterrent force.
"Even the fleet led by the Rear Admiral of the Navy Headquarters can't defeat us. You alone, tsk tsk, the consequences of provoking us..."
The more the young woman listened, the paler her face became, and her breathing became rapid. She gritted her teeth and said, "I... I was able to control your bodies before... I advise you to be more sensible... I'm not afraid..."
She was just a teenager, and although her attitude was still firm, her voice was trembling.
Seeing the boy's increasingly frightened expression, Shanks could no longer maintain his cool image and he suddenly burst into laughter.
The others were infected by Shanks' laughter and could no longer pretend, so they started laughing too.
The hearty laughter swept away the tense atmosphere.
The young man looked at the laughing people in confusion: Are these pirates crazy?
Beckman's smile became a little more restrained. He looked at the boy with a smile and said jokingly, "Are you scared? They're just playing a joke on you."
Shanks put his hands on his hips and laughed triumphantly, "You scared us before, too. Now we're even."
"That's right, you turned me into a Z..." Lime Jones suddenly realized that he was almost revealing the fact that he turned into a pig, so he quickly stopped talking.
"Z" Mellie glanced at Rhyme Jones in confusion.
"Nothing." Rhyme Jones turned his head away coolly.
Gulixiati took out a lollipop from her pocket and handed it to him: "Have a lollipop to calm your nerves."
The young girl took the lollipop blankly, her eyes full of confusion and disbelief. She didn't expect these pirates to be so straightforward, and their way of revenge was unexpectedly... childish.
She asked tentatively, "Aren't you... pirates?"
Gulixiati smiled and said, "We are indeed pirates, and the bounty they just mentioned is true."
The boy still didn't quite believe it: "But you seem to be different from other pirates?" Aren't pirates extremely vicious?
Lime Jones: "Kid, not all pirates like to burn, kill and plunder."
It turned out that not only Beckman, but also the other companions, after discovering that the person controlling their bodies was just a young boy, and considering the frightened expressions of the villagers just now, quickly guessed the whole story.
Since the beginning of the Great Pirate Age, there have been a great number of pirates on the Grand Line, and it is a mixed bag of good and bad. Many pirates seek adventure, killing, looting and treasure hunting. Whenever they arrive at a strange island, they burn, kill, plunder and commit all kinds of evil.
Ordinary people have long been frightened by the notorious pirates. When they see pirate ships approaching, their first reaction is fear and rejection.
The young man obviously also regarded the Red Hair Pirates as plunderers. In order to protect the villagers on the island, he pulled them into his dream and wanted to scare them away.
This is not the first or second time that the Red Hair Pirates have been misunderstood.
After Beckman realized this, he quietly sent a signal to his companions. Lime Jones and Gab understood what he meant and took advantage of the girl's misunderstanding, pretending to be ferocious and deliberately frightening her.
It was not until then that Meli realized that they were acting.
It says that Shanks and the others have good acting skills. If they don't become pirates in the future, they will definitely be very popular if they act in movies.
This trick really worked. Although the boy was frightened at first, this childish revenge quickly eliminated her hostility.
The boy recalled the scene he saw in his dream and couldn't help but smile: "I'm sorry, I thought you were bad pirates, so I wanted to drive you away."
Shanks waved his hand meaninglessly: "It's okay, we scared them back."
Beckman: "By the way, why did you turn our companions into your appearance in your dream?"
"It wasn't me who did this," the boy pointed at the small octopus on Shanks' straw hat. "It was the one that took over my body in the dream first and turned me into an octopus."
Eh? Eh? Eh?
Merry raised his tentacle in confusion and pointed at himself with innocent eyes: "Me? I didn't do anything!"
“How strange.”
"What's going on?"
"I don't know anything either."
It seems that this young girl's ability is not very strong. She has pulled too many people into her dreams, causing the dreams to be completely out of her control. Even she herself seems to be not very clear about her abilities.
"Let's ignore things we don't understand. The crisis is over, let's have the party!"
"Okay! Let's have a party!"
"What is a banquet?"
"Don't you know? Then why don't you and the villagers join in? It'll be a lot of fun!"
......
The night was as dark as ink, and the moonlight was blocked by thick clouds.
A ball of warm firelight danced in the night, illuminating the faces of everyone around the campfire.
Shanks, Beckman, Snake and the other residents of the island sat together, drinking, eating meat, talking and laughing loudly, completely putting aside the previous misunderstandings.
"Come on, everyone, let's have a drink to clear up the misunderstanding between us!"
"Cheers!" Everyone responded and raised their glasses.
Not far away, Lachi Lu was busy making various delicious foods with several villagers while biting into meat.
Meli, Uta and Monsta were surrounded by the children in the village. The children here had never seen such a smart monkey or a talking octopus.
The curious children surrounded Monsta and Meli, rubbing their bodies with their little hands. Monsta screamed in anxiety, and Uta hurried forward to help rescue him.
On the other hand, when the people on the island heard that Hongo was a doctor, they immediately pulled him over to help with the diagnosis.
It turned out that there were no proper doctors in this small village. Minor illnesses and pains could only be endured, and serious illnesses could be cured by waiting.
Helen knew almost nothing about the clinic, which was why the clinic in her dream was so strange.
Ah, Helen is the young man with special abilities. After friendly communication, the two sides learned that she seemed to have accidentally eaten a devil fruit and had the ability to pull people into dreams and make them sleepwalk.
At this moment, Jesus Bu was telling some villagers about their adventure stories. Many people were listening attentively, exclaiming and cheering from time to time.
Helen also sat in the group listening to the story. She was led into one interesting adventure world after another by Jesus' words, and her eyes became bright.
Punch pulled out a guitar: "Hey guys, how about some music?"
"OK!"
The strings were plucked, and a cheerful melody immediately floated away. Most people immediately followed the rhythm of the music and danced simple steps.
"Ga ga!" Monsta took the opportunity to escape from the child's clutches. It jumped to the wine jar and knocked on it with chopsticks to help with the accompaniment.
Uta began to sing: "~~No matter how many difficulties and obstacles there are ahead~~it can't stop the excitement~~"
As the night deepened, the clear and infectious singing floated among the laughter and the atmosphere became more and more lively.
Helen had a bright smile on her face: "The party was really fun! It turns out there are such interesting pirates!"
Everyone was enjoying this unforgettable night to the fullest.
——————
The Redforth had been sailing alone on the vast blue ocean for many days.
Shanks and others learned on the previous island that there was a small island famous for its gorgeous fireworks, and the season for the fireworks festival was approaching.
So, everyone prepared to attend the fireworks display with great anticipation.
However, this voyage was longer than everyone expected. The ship was running out of fresh water and food, but had not yet reached the next island recorded by the record pointer.
The sky was blue, the sun was high in the sky, and the entire cabin was filled with a stuffy atmosphere.
Inside the cabin, Shanks and his companions sat listlessly on the ground. All the wine had been drunk. After eating seafood for several days, they had lost the joy of eating and drinking, and everyone looked a little lethargic.
Lime Jones licked his cracked lips and broke the suffocating silence: "I'm really not used to the days without alcohol."
Jesus Bu took over the conversation: "It is indeed difficult to live without wine. Life is boring."
Lachi Lu: "It's okay without wine, but I'm not used to it without meat. Sigh, I've been eating fish every meal these days and I'm tired of it."
Meili: "It's okay. These days, in addition to fish, there are also shrimps and crabs, seaweed and shells. I think they are all delicious."
"Mellisan, our recipes may be different. These are all seafood, and eating too much is really greasy."
"Also, the texture and aroma of seafood and meat are completely different."
"Meat and seafood feel pretty much the same," Punch swallowed unconsciously, "but I'm still not used to it without the alcohol."
"Both wine and meat are important!" Shanks suddenly shouted childishly, "Snake, when will we get to the next island? I want to drink and eat meat to my heart's content!"
"We should be almost there, everyone, just hold on a little longer." Snake walked out onto the deck.
