Pirate: My partner is too crooked

Chapter 209 Farewell Banquet

The fierce battle between the three kings, the Shichibukai, broke out in the territory of the old four emperors, and spread across the entire new world at the speed of a wildfire.

No one knows exactly what happened on that resource-rich island, only the final outcome:

Doflamingo's chest was left with slash marks, and his feather coat was stained with gravel, and he returned to his hometown of Dressrosa without saying a word.

Crocodile left the island with the seriously injured Daz Bowness and disappeared.

Moonlight Moria, who stayed behind, became the new owner of this rich pirate island with his two cadres, the ghost princess Perona and the transparent man Absalom.

Many pirates from the New World came to seek refuge after hearing the news and expressed their willingness to serve Moria.

Moria knew very well that this group of outsiders who were above interests were unreliable, but if he wanted to gain a foothold in the new world, it was essential to have strong subordinates.

Therefore, with the insidious idea of ​​treating this group of people as necessary cannon fodder, he refused to refuse anyone who came.

In just a few days, he gained hundreds of subordinates, renamed the island the Shadow Territory, and became the focus of attention from all forces in the New World, especially Kaido.

Of course, Kaido is not afraid of Moria's growth.

On the contrary, as a fighting maniac, he showed heartfelt joy and excitement at the return of his old rival.

Kaido told the public without hesitation that Moria could go to Onigashima to seek revenge from him at any time!

At the same time, after a period of development, the new Yonko Red-haired Shanks also integrated all his resources and dominated the new world with an unstoppable attitude.

The underground emperors of the dark world also carried out various major actions. All forces in the new world fought against each other, and undercurrents surged.

Unknowingly, this relatively peaceful era suddenly became perilous!

As for the news of Lin Zhi causing trouble in the holy land of Mariejoia, it was tightly blocked by the Five Old Stars. What was leaked was only that Mariejoia had a collision storm of domineering domineering power.

Very few people know the details.

……

The first half of the Grand Line, Twin Gorges.

On the deck of the Infinite Dream docked on the coast, the skinny Ginny stood in the dazzling sunlight with a dull face, her heart was filled with excitement and complex emotions, and she could not calm down for a long time.

"It's really okay. I didn't expect that I would be able to stand in the sun again..."

The sun at noon was very fierce, but Ginny, who was crying, didn't care. Instead, she breathed the fresh air around her greedily.

"Thank you very much. I'm sorry. I don't know what words I should use to express my gratitude sincerely." She said with tears in her eyes to Lin Zhi who was standing next to her.

"No need to thank you. Speaking of which, I owed you a favor from the Revolutionary Army before."

Lin Zhi waved his hand calmly.

Ginny's sapphire scales were naturally treated by Aqua.

This kind of thing is just a piece of cake for her with her increased divine power.

"There's just one very important thing you need to understand. Even Aqua on our ship can't completely cure your disease. You have to repeat the treatment every year."

Looking at the stupid goddess running around holding baby Pony on the lower deck, Lin Zhi warned Ginny with a serious expression, "The same goes for your child."

This is of course false.

The main reason for saying this is that they have exposed enough secrets under the eyes of the World Government.

Let the outside world know that Aqua also has the ability to cure terminal diseases, which will make her a key surveillance target of the Five Old Stars!

Lin Zhi did not want to see this situation.

It's not that he can't trust Ginny, it's just that he would rather trust a mother's obsession than her character.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Don't say a year, even if it's only a month, I have to be grateful." Ginny shook her head gently.

"I think you may have misunderstood what I meant. I hope you can keep this secret."

Lin Zhi looked sideways at her and said, "Including Dolag, Ivankov, and Da Xiong, if others know that it was the sapphire scales that Aqua eliminated, we will not treat you and that child in the future."

Hearing this, Ginny's pupils shrank obviously.

She didn't have any ideas herself. If it weren't for seeing the bear again and watching her child grow up, she would have wanted to die on her own initiative after being humiliated in Mariejoia!

But kids are different.

In order for Pony to grow up healthily, she is willing to do anything!

"I understand." Ginny nodded her head firmly.

"Now that we've finished talking about the business, are you going to go back first or attend our banquet in the evening?" Lin Zhi asked.

On the bottom of the deck, Aqua carefully handed the little Pony to Kangna who was full of curiosity.

"Kanna-chan, be careful, don't swallow this in one bite." Aqua solemnly confessed.

Only at such times will the idiot goddess appear a little more reliable and serious.

"I know! Kangna is not a child anymore!"

Kangna puffed out her cheeks and took Pony, scorning Aqua's words.

Doesn’t she, an ancient dragon who has lived for more than 10,000 years, know whether the food she got can be eaten?

Above, Ginny's eyes never left Pony, who was smiling brightly in the sun.

After thinking for a few seconds, she replied softly: "Thank you very much for your kindness, but I want to return to the Kingdom of Solbey as soon as possible."

No matter how fast it is, can it still be faster than the speed of thunder and lightning?

Lin Zhi glanced sideways and immediately saw Ginny's unwillingness to trouble them any more.

As a revolutionary army that wants to liberate the world, there must be many secret strongholds along the Grand Line.

In the original book, Ginny was still able to return to the Cathedral of the Kingdom of Sorbe despite suffering from the terminal illness of Jade Scales, so he chose to respect the other party's ideas.

"I understand, see you later."

"See you soon. Your great kindness, Ginny, will never be forgotten in her lifetime."

In this way, under the reluctant gaze of Aqua, Kangna and other friends, Ginny took the baby Pony and left the Twin Gorges on a small boat, disappearing little by little into the vast sea.

After bidding farewell, everyone was in a slightly depressed mood.

Apart from Ginny Bonny, it was something they cared about very much.

That is Brooke, who has completed his reunion with Rabu the Whale, and is about to disembark.

This was a decision Brooke made after careful consideration.

After venturing all the way, he saw with his own eyes how powerful Lin Zhi's group was, and realized that sooner or later he would become a liability if he stayed in this team despite his lack of strength.

Moreover, after wandering on the sea for decades, he really felt a little tired and wanted to stay in Twin Gorges to spend more time with Labu.

As the captain of this group of few serious people, Lin Zhi naturally wouldn't mind having more Brooks. Or to be more precise, compared to people like Aqua, Brooke is just a pervert who wants to see others fatter. When he should be serious, he is not ambiguous at all.

But he couldn't stand Brooke's insistence and agreed to his request to disembark.

Dusk ends, like a banquet that lasts forever, and darkness gradually covers the entire Twin Straits sea area.

The lights on the Infinite Dream were brightly lit, and together with Crocas, who had settled in Twin Gap, everyone drank and had a grand and cheerful banquet on the spacious deck.

In order to create the most perfect atmosphere, Lin Zhi was so generous that he opened the wine cellar and let Aqua drink as she pleased.

Aqua raised the bottle of wine and drank it furiously, while performing her talents to the best of her ability, as if she wanted Brooke to see all her banquet skills at once.

Although she looked super disgusted on the surface, in fact, she had already sincerely accepted this partner with the appearance of the undead.

The same goes for King. He really didn't want to hear people describe his hard-working self as practicing his talents. He also cooperated hard this time, picking up dumbbells and constantly showing off various awkward movements that showed off his body muscles.

Miao Miao carried the violin on his shoulder, sat on the piano played by Brooke, and played the tune he was best at.

Kangna, who had no talent, was at a loss at first. After hearing that Brooke wanted to see how cute she was eating, she showed off the exquisite delicacies on the table one after another.

All partners are using their own ways to make this farewell party longer and more impressive.

Oh oh oh!

The loud whale cry became the best accompaniment to the beautiful music. Labu, who was too big, was naturally unable to attend the banquet and experience the joy. He could only keep wandering around the Infinite Dream, slapping the sea with his thick tail.

The lively atmosphere permeated the entire sea area.

In the corner of the deck, Crocas lightly raised his wine glass and clinked it with Lin Zhi, who was sitting next to him.

"Although I saw that you are not simple when we first met, your growth and performance far exceeded my expectations."

He drank the wine in one gulp and looked up at the star-studded night sky of the Grand Route.

He became the ship's doctor of the Roger Pirates and followed Roger to conquer the world. He met countless dazzling newcomers.

But for someone like Lin Zhi, who had just entered the Grand Line a few months ago and became the king of the Shichibuhai that intimidated the entire sea, it was only this time that he had the means to negotiate with the Five Old Stars of the World Government.

Even Rocks, Roger, Red Earl, etc. back then were nothing more than this!

Thinking of the various major events that had occurred in the New World during this period, just like Whitebeard, in Lin Zhi, he saw that the new era mentioned by Roger had arrived early!

"There is no other way. If you don't want to become food for others, you can only try your best to climb up." Lin Zhi did not refute Kurokas' statement.

"You must have more ambitions than this, right?" Kurokas asked meaningfully.

"Maybe, but that's something we won't consider until a long time later." Lin Zhi put down the empty wine glass in his hand.

Although in their team, Aqua, who has gained millions of followers, has greatly increased her magical power, King has the combat power of a royal deputy with the blessing of the second-generation machine, and Meow Meow has learned the Sixth Form of the Navy and has extremely tenacious vitality. The most basic ability to protect yourself.

But after witnessing the methods of the Five Old Stars during this trip to Marie Joa, it is obvious that from a comprehensive perspective, this group of not-so-serious partners is not enough!

As the melodious pirate song "Binx's Wine" sounded in the center of the deck, Lin Zhi ended his brief conversation with Kurokas and stood up first.

"How about it, do you want to come over and play together?" he asked Kurokas.

"Forget it, I'm already an old man." Kurokas shook his head quite self-deprecatingly.

When Lin Zhi saw this, he said no more and turned into a flash of thunder and lightning to enter the scene.

As soon as he appeared, he performed Luffy's special skill - holding his nostrils with chopsticks, which made his friends laugh and imitate.

The moonlight was bright, the sea breeze was cool, and the cheerful atmosphere reached its peak.

The banquet lasted until late at night.

The stupid goddess was completely drunk, and she was arm-in-arms with Miao Miao, who was also completely drunk, and she was swaying when she walked.

The two started bragging after drinking. One said how beautiful he was in the God Realm, with countless gods and goddesses worshiping him. The other said that he had caught all kinds of legendary Pokémon to rub his shoulders and back. , even Pikachu took the initiative to come over and want to be his little brother.

None of it is true!

King, who was too drunk, took the lead to go back to the room to rest, while Kangna was still sweeping away the remaining food and drinks on the table.

Lin Zhi and Brooke, who were far away from the hardest-hit area, leaned on the railing of the ship and enjoyed the refreshing sea breeze blowing in their faces.

"Brooke, do you really want to stop thinking about it?" Lin Zhi said in a deep voice as he made his final plea.

"Thank you very much for bringing me out of the dark devil's sea. To be honest, Mr. Lin Zhi, I have had a very happy time with you during this adventure."

Brooke's voice choked up, and he said with an unusually serious expression, "However, as I said before, I have decided to stay in Twin Gorges to accompany Rab!"

"It seems that the only choice I can make is to respect you."

Lin Zhi felt Brooke's determination from the empty skull eyes.

Brooke took two steps back and solemnly made a gentleman's salute.

"thank you very much."

As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere around the two people suddenly became extremely quiet.

After standing there in silence for a few seconds, Brooke finally couldn't help but speak out, and asked cautiously: "Mr. Lin Zhi, I should be considered your partner, right?"

"Of course! Even if you get off the ship, the room on the Infinite Dream will always be reserved for you. Whenever you want to continue your adventure, you are always welcome." Lin Zhi replied without thinking.

Because of the Wishing Fountain's ability to continuously strengthen, his path to becoming stronger is destined to be far ahead.

If nothing unexpected happens, he can dominate the world within a few years and become the freest person in the pirate world.

Therefore, the time when they and Brooke meet again is actually not too far away.

As soon as these words came out, Brooke, who had already reached his limit, burst into tears, and all the tears and nose gushed out from his bones.

"But, damn it! My nose and tears are flowing out. I'm obviously a skeleton without eyes or nose, oh, oh, oh, bastard!"

Lin Zhi's domineering attitude was released to the whole audience, and Lin Zhi caught the movement with a bright smile on his lips.

"This doesn't seem right, Brooke, I remember your lines, it's obviously..."

At some point, the drunken Aqua and Miaomiao, King who was the first to return to the room, and Kangna who was eating all gathered over and stood behind the two of them.

Everyone took up what Lin Zhi failed to say in unison.

"Yo ho ho ho ho!"

　As for Brooke, in addition to being difficult to strengthen, there are also too many people, which is too troublesome to write, and it is easy for passers-by to make faces, so I arranged to exit. In fact, I quite like this character. After all, he is as lustful as me.
