Swish!
After two crisp sounds, Gion and Hancock stood steadily on either side of Gawain.
Immediately afterwards, the two of them, with perfect coordination, each found a sofa and placed it on either side of Gawain before sitting down.
Without a word, Hancock picked up her wine glass and looked at Robin with an undisguised cold expression.
As a typical snake-like woman, Hancock respects elders and children, but if you're the same age as her, well, sorry!
She raised her glass with a cold expression and asked with a sneer.
"I wonder who this person is...?"
Without waiting for anyone's reply, she drank the wine in her glass.
Then she stopped going to see Robin...
Most people, faced with this attitude of "I don't even care who you are," might even feel a little angry.
But Robin.
Faced with Hancock's rudeness, she remained silent for a moment, then narrowed her eyes.
She smiled gracefully, and then spoke as she laughed.
"I was a little worried when Lord Gawain suddenly invited me."
But now, those worries seem to have vanished.
After all, even if this isn't a pleasant place, Lord Gawain is still very popular with girls.
"As a girl, working on this ship must be very enjoyable, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Robin nodded slightly.
"The Shichibukai, the Pirate Empress, Boa Hancock."
There's also the Navy's reserve Admiral, Momousagi Gion.
I am Nico Robin, the Devil Child, the Last Child of Ohara.
Seeing you seniors living such comfortable lives makes me truly happy.
After saying that, Robin drank the wine in his glass.
Seeing this, Gion nodded slightly.
Thankfully, at least this new companion isn't as crazy as Hancock.
For a woman like her, Robin could still be a friend!
So Gion quickly changed her posture, moving slightly closer to Robin. The two of them clinked glasses and drank merrily.
And Hancock...
Caught between these people, this sensitive, snake-like woman always felt isolated...
In an instant, Hancock's astounding imagination began to take shape in her mind.
Gawain and Gion were only occasionally chatting and drinking with Robin, but what Hancock saw was...
Hancock's mind. "Robin stood Gawain at the bow of the Dark Bird Ship, holding the petite Gawain in her arms with her left hand, as the beautiful sea breeze caressed them."
Immediately afterwards, Gion approached Robin, looking hesitant, and asked Robin, "Am I late?"
Robin gave a wicked smile: No, you've come at the perfect time.
Robin immediately embraced two women, the three of them enjoying themselves immensely, while Hancock herself knelt miserably on the edge of the deck...
Hancock's gaze sharpened, and she fiercely raised her cup.
"Hey, new guy, I don't care if you're the Devil Child or some kind of the Oni Tribe, since you've come to this ship, you should at least have a good drink!"
Come on, let me have a good drink with you!!!
As soon as she finished speaking, Hancock used the same energy she had when she had a drinking contest with Gawain on Amazon Lily's beach on Robin.
In no time, the atmosphere on the deck became extremely lively, and everyone drank from noon until dusk.
The officers gradually returned to the deck of the Dark Bird Ship, and then they joined in.
Therefore, the Dark Bird Ship Niao simply held a grand banquet to welcome the newlyweds.
And so it went, until the moon hung high in the sky.
Crocodile and Jinbe have become inseparable.
Jinbe always felt that Crocodile would be a better fit to be his best friend than Shiryu!
First of all, Crocodile has been hailed as a great hero of Alabasta for fourteen years, so he's essentially a good person, right?
Secondly, Crocodile Pops Whitebeard in the highest esteem!
After all, Crocodile was almost defeated by Whitebeard back then, and the person he respected most was none other than Whitebeard, who had defeated him!
And finally...
Jinbe was seen drinking with Crocodile while constantly glancing at the hook attached to Crocodile's left hand.
Crocodile carries around such a huge hook; he must be a really good fisherman...?
On the other hand, Ace and Rayleigh, one young and one old, are having a great time.
Ace had always played with kids like Luffy and Sabo since he was a child; he had never played adult games like dice, poker, dominoes, or mahjong with someone like his father...
As he played cards, Ace looked wistfully at the notes plastered all over his face.
Is this what it feels like to have a father?
At least he has the feel of a sugar daddy, right?
Beside them, Shakky, Gion, Kalifa, and Robin were lounging in a row on beach chairs.
They had long since put down their alcohol and switched to drinking beauty-enhancing fruit juice.
Not far from Robin, a tall but kind-hearted Kuma was holding a notebook and asking Robin questions.
As Robin looked at what Kuma had recorded, she exclaimed with great admiration.
"So, before me, the adults had already put forward so many thought-provoking viewpoints!"
Your Excellency is truly an excellent leader!
His arguments, to a large extent, reached the level of a thinker!
Is he really that outstanding?
Fortunately, this book isn't called Oden's Journal or Gawain's Diary, so Robin simply praised Gawain with admiration, instead of shouting that she wanted to become Gawain or something...
However, while praising him, Robin also criticized Kuma.
"Mr. Xiong, your record is very detailed, but in some aspects it is not detailed enough."
Your record is more like a biography than a historical document.
How about this, you continue to record what you want to write, while I will record more detailed history, both good and bad.
At least in my opinion, the way adults are now needs to be documented!
At this point, Robin squinted at Gawain, who was not far away, holding the unconscious Hancock with a helpless expression.
He gently swayed Hancock's body twice, then asked in a low voice.
"Hancock, are you feeling any better?"
"Mmm, Gawain is my son, I want to be the first one~~~."
Hancock, babbling incoherently, couldn't even pronounce her own name correctly; it was quite a feat that she could still say Gawain's name correctly.
As for her alcohol tolerance...
Don't forget, back on Amazon Lily, even before Gawain had trained, he managed to make Hancock lose her senses with his drink.
And Robin.
While Robin's fighting prowess is far inferior to Hancock's, when it comes to drinking...
The obvious ending would be Robin standing and Hancock lying down...
Looking at Gawain and Hancock from a distance, Robin smiled and narrowed her eyes, saying...
"Look at the adults now, aren't they somewhat indulging in alcohol and women?"
Truly great figures, possessing both strategic vision and profound knowledge, should strive to place their minds on the vastness of the universe, rather than on women.
After speaking, Robin shook his head noncommittally, then looked up at the moon in the sky.
As Robin watched, a knowing smile appeared on his face.
She wore an expression as if she were immersed in the moonlight, and said happily.
"I never imagined that I would dare to lie down among so many people and casually reveal my identity as the Devil Child."
At the same time, I can also see Celestial Dragon and women from the lower classes embracing each other, and I can also see the Pirate King's vice-captain and the Pirate King's son playing around together.
I also saw Marines and pirates drinking together, and Poseidon was even playing with the daughter of one of the Four Emperors...
At this point, Robin couldn't help but look at Shirahoshi, who was lying in the distance, swishing her tail.
In her eyes, Dabai Star was smiling and moving around to the left and right.
When no one was looking, she would secretly take a little wine, enjoy a sip herself, and then give some to the drunken Uta sitting above her...
Little did she know, Uta was already completely drunk and unconscious; even if she were given a bowl of chili oil, Uta would still drink it down in her hazy state...
Watching the scene unfold before him, Robin took a deep, absorbed breath.
"This kind of life, where there's absolutely no need to hide anything, is truly... something to yearn for."
However, it only happened on this ship.
Gawain... although my contact with him has been very brief.
But his status and position can truly shield him from too many problems on this vast sea...
In particular, he himself was willing to do so..
At this point, Robin chuckled softly.
"I really hope that this time, I can stay on the new ship a little longer."
However, I feel there shouldn't be any problems, after all, even the Navy and CP who have been chasing me in the past.
Now they all seem to have become my companions...
Unbelievable...
As Robin's incredulous assessment continued, the moonlight deepened, and everyone went to sleep.
So the next morning...
When Hancock awoke from her slumber, she patted the blanket beside her as usual.
"Rabbit, hey, rabbit..."
Ah, I felt so awful after drinking yesterday...
Rabbit, where are you? Hey?
You didn't actually go to Robin's side, did you?
At this point, Hancock, who had been unable to find Gion, opened her eyes.
She rubbed her eyes in confusion, then sat up from under the covers.
Hancock crossed her legs naturally, letting her pajamas slip down her shoulders, revealing half of her rabbit as she searched for the real rabbit in a daze.
But as she looked at it, she couldn't help but feel increasingly strange.
Why is she in a spot that's neither the rabbit's bed nor her own bed...?!
This... this... this location...
It looks like... Gawain's bed!!!
For a moment, Hancock stared wide-eyed in disbelief, her hands involuntarily covering her mouth.
"Gawain's bed!"
This pink-themed style, the Snake Princess permanent makeup—I personally selected them all!!!
But... how did I end up sleeping in Gawain's bed?!
And Gawain isn't even with me!!!
At this point, Hancock's blissful expression suddenly changed, and she quickly looked towards the door.
She muttered to herself in disbelief.
"Could it be... could it be that while I was drunk, they left me on this bed, and Gawain slept in the room with Gion, cuddling with that rabbit with the really long legs?!"
For a moment, Hancock felt like crying; she had just been dreaming of... marrying Gawain.
In the blink of an eye, it turned into a nightmare of Gawain and Gion getting married.
However, just as her thoughts were in disarray, the door was pushed open from the outside, and Gion, dressed neatly, came to the bedside and snorted at Hancock in an annoyed manner.
"Hmph, you really got a good deal last night."
Tsk tsk, using the excuse of being drunk, he clung to Gawain and wouldn't leave him, sleeping like a dead pig all night.
"What, is this Snake Princess's plan?"
"Why?!!"
On the opposite bed, Hancock, sitting with her legs together, had long forgotten Gion's sarcastic tone. She looked at Gion with loving eyes and asked, "..."
"You mean, I slept with an adult last night?!"
It's just the two of us, not you, you annoying thing, right?
So, does that mean I... hehe, am I going to marry an adult?
I..."
"Stop thinking about it, Snake Princess!"
Gion shook her head dismissively.
"With your alcohol tolerance, you still want to marry an adult?"
Haha, I gave you the chance, but you were useless. I didn't hear a single unusual sound last night!
Instead, all I heard was snoring and some silly, pig-like laughter that you were making, for some unknown reason, during a dream...
Oh, and Gawain said you vomited on the bed...
At this point, Gion grabbed the dazed Hancock and lifted her off the bed, then carried Hancock directly to the dressing room.
"Around four o'clock last night, Gawain, the maids, and I helped you clean up your vomit and change your bed."
Alas...!
It's disgusting!
I even helped you take a bath, but you still had to hold onto Gawain's arm even while bathing.
So, you were seen naked by Gawain, which you can brag about to me now, you silly woman...
In addition, it is already 10:00 AM, and Gawain and Yi Xiao have already finished two rounds of their match.
If you get up now, you'll still have a chance to see Gawain swimming and resting.
What, do you need me to help you put on your clothes too?
Or shall I help you take another bath?
"No no no no no!!!"
In an instant, Hancock, whose face was half black and half pink, completely lost it. She quickly escaped from Gion's grasp and then immediately chased Gion away.
She hid in the bathroom and turned on the shower.
As she rinsed, she sat down on the bathroom floor, her heart pounding with anxiety.
She clutched her heart in distress, muttering to herself in anguish.
"I actually threw up on Gawain's bed..."
I might even have vomited on Gawain...
I also snore...
"I... Waaaaah, Gawain, I'm so happy!!!"
Well, as she spoke, she completely transformed back into a blissful expression.
Her eyes Starlight as she looked around, then she whispered excitedly.
"Besides, this is Gawain's own bathroom!"
Hehehehe, this bathroom has only been used by me and Gawain so far!!!
And so, half an hour later.
Having finished his rest, Gawain once again drew his sword and Gion in battle.
While mustering all his strength to parry and counter Gion's sword energy, Gawain asked curiously.
"Gion, didn't you already wake Hancock up?"
Why hasn't she come out yet? Is she still asleep?
"Tsk tsk, I never would have guessed, sir."
Even if nothing happens, just holding her in your arms for one night—is your concern already overflowing?
Don't worry, with her constitution, she'll be fine once she wakes up.
As for why she hasn't shown up for so long, I don't know either. If she's still not out by lunch break, I'll go look for her then!
As soon as she finished speaking, Gion's sword suddenly became even more ruthless, the blade slicing past Gawain's face.
Gawain instantly fled thousands of miles away, then, with Inazuma, activated his Flying Thunder God Mode.
Upon seeing this, Gion roared in dissatisfaction.
"My lord, stay focused! You cannot use this special combat method when sparring with me!"
You have to tough it out, tough it out! Only by feeling enough pressure can your Armament Haki become stronger!!!
In an instant, Gion almost turned to the dark side, and her sword became increasingly vicious.
Getting fiercer and fiercer...
Tickets, please!
