Chapter 123: The Lone Dragon Arthur
Early in the morning.
The sky is clear and blue above the sea.
The sunlight came into the cabin and shone on Arthur's face, who had been unconscious for the whole day.
He slowly opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling for a long time.
The pupils in his eye sockets involuntarily looked towards the soft creature weighing heavily on his body.
"What are you doing? Where am I?" Arthur looked coldly at Gion, who was sleeping soundly on him and using him as a pillow.
My sensitive skin can clearly feel her soft and comfortable body and body temperature.
If there weren't only two people in the room, people would have suspected that they had just had a passionate night.
The severe pain all over his body made him completely weak, and the damage he suffered from the domineering power almost killed him.
"..." Gion, who was sleeping soundly, heard Arthur's voice, his face turned red like a monkey's butt, and he quickly opened his eyes and stood up.
"Where's my knife?" Arthur asked her.
"How should I know? Didn't you get lost in the battle? Besides, I saved you, so what's wrong with hugging you?" Gion said pretentiously.
His eyes would occasionally glance at Arthur's face.
"You won't die if I hug you!"
I found that he was not as cute when he woke up as when he was unconscious.
"You're making such a cold and dead face again... You're on my warship." Gion continued to answer Arthur.
This reminded Arthur that he had made a huge gamble with his life.
I bet that this woman in front of me will not attack me, but will save me instead.
Lifting the thin blanket, Arthur looked at himself in bandages and asked calmly, "Where is my black robe? Who can change my clothes?"
"I changed it." Gion turned around, stared at Arthur and responded to him.
"You saw me naked? Haha, so funny, a woman looking at a man..." Arthur shook his head and sneered.
"You'd better get out of here as soon as you wake up. I can only help you up to this point. Government personnel have already started searching on various warships and will be here soon."
I heard Gion pointing at the black robe that had been washed and dried on the clothes rack nearby.
Arthur stood up and walked to the clothes rack, put on the black robe, and teased her with a smile on his face: "You... like me?"
Gion: “No…”
"Oh, so that's how it is. So your motive for saving me is to use me?"
"No…"
"So you think you saved me because I owe you a favor?"
"It seems... there is no..."
Arthur, wearing a black robe, suddenly approached her, pushed her down on the bed, and lay on top of her:
"Then as a marine, why did you save a pirate like me?"
This sudden action made Gion shrink all over, and his cheeks turned red to his ears: "What are you going to do...?"
Gion said this, tilting his head away and closing his eyes tightly to offer no resistance.
Click.
At this moment, the office door suddenly opened, Shani walked in, and was stunned by the scene on the bed.
Subconsciously, I thought the scene in front of me was an ambiguous scene of Arthur riding on Gion and pressing her on the bed.
"Major...Major...Major General...I...I'll come back in half an hour..." Shani turned around and left stiffly.
The atmosphere became awkward for a moment and the three of them were stunned for a moment.
Gion said to her, "Don't get me wrong, Shani, I'm not the kind of girl that a man could get so easily!"
"Hehe..." Shani sneered and rolled her eyes at Gion.
This made Arthur stand up suddenly, quickly approach Shani, and grab her neck with one hand: "Go to hell."
"Stop! She is my personal guard who helped me save you!" Seeing this, Gion hurriedly stopped him and ran behind Arthur and slapped him on the neck with a knife.
Then, looking at Arthur who was kneeling on the ground with just one move, she couldn't believe that the man in front of her was so weak.
"Ahem..." Shani, who was rescued, was full of anger: "I've told you all! Damn it, this guy is just a pirate now, he has no humanity, Major General!"
She was extremely angry. She helped to rescue Arthur, but was still treated the same way.
"My body feels so heavy..." Arthur knelt on one knee on the ground, thinking in great pain.
"Government investigators will be here soon. If you don't get rid of him quickly, we will all be in trouble!" Shani brought the information to Gion, then glared at Arthur viciously.
He left the office, covering his neck.
Just now, her throat was almost broken by Arthur.
"I can only help you up to this point. Your life can only be left to the sea, Arthur." After hearing the information, Gion hurriedly grabbed Arthur.
He dragged him to the window and threw him into the sea without hesitation.
This is better than being discovered by government officials on the ship.
A few days later——
New world, above the sea.
The O'Hara expedition ship is sailing towards the next expedition site.
At noon, Olbia spotted a black figure floating on the sea.
"Castlers!" She immediately rang the ship's bell.
Everyone rushed to the deck and worked together to salvage the boat.
When he turned over, he saw that it was Arthur, who was famous on the sea.
"This guy is...!"
"Olbia, throw him out quickly! This guy will bring disaster to our voyage!"
The crew members were talking about it, but Olbia was firm in his attitude.
Unable to bear the thought of throwing Arthur off the deck, he insisted on rescuing him and settling him in the cabin.
About two days later—
A piece of news that shocked the world spread all over the world.
Nicole Olbia bought one from the Newspaper Gull on the expedition deck for 100 Beli.
Some of the contents of the newspaper are roughly as follows:
"The town of Farah in the Aurora Islands was attacked by the Ice Sword Master Arthur, causing a large number of innocent casualties and turning civilization into ruins."
"Sand Crocodile Crocodile joins the Seven Warlords of the Sea, becomes a legal pirate, and works for the World Government's cause of peace."
"Arthur has withdrawn from the Roger Pirates. The Roger Pirates have returned to the Grand Line Paradise. Their purpose is unknown. Citizens please take precautions."
"The World Government has established the Iber Prize. Any feat performed by pirates, civilians, and marines will be recorded in history."
"World Government Declaration: For the sake of world peace, please do not believe the rumors that have been spreading on the ocean recently."
The fact that the Celestial Dragons were killed and beaten was not made public at all.
As I was reading, a piece of yellowed brown paper floated out from the newspaper.
Olbia picked it up and read it: "The Lone Dragon Arthur, bounty... 10 billion berries!?"
She couldn't believe what a person could do.
How can the bounty be increased so much?
Even the nickname has changed.
Olbia looked at the railing on the side of the deck.
At this time, Arthur had fully recovered and was sitting steadily on it.
The last battle gave all his five senses a huge boost.
He heard everything that Olbia had just read.
"There is an island ahead!" the sailor on the ship suddenly shouted.
Arthur, who was meditating, opened his eyes and looked at the sea in front of him:
"Why don't you come to me, Cooper...?"
A few days have passed.
There was no news from Cooper, which made Arthur worried.
What he was more worried about than the loss of the blade was Cooper's collapse in the battle.
"Lonely Dragon, please get off the boat at the island ahead. Don't forget that you owe me a favor."
Olbia came up to Arthur and said.
I don't want to have too much contact with him. Everyone knows that he is a guy who brings disaster.
Wherever they went, there was disaster and fighting.
"The Armament Haki seems..." Arthur wrapped the Armament Haki domineering around his hands, and the aura formed a materialized object.
It gradually changed into the shape of a sword and was held in his hand.
However, when Arthur released the hilt of the sword created by the Armament Haki.
The pitch-black blade disappeared into thin air.
The materialization of Armament Haki also makes the consumption several times more than usual.
His discovery domineering aura evolved again, and his strength also improved fundamentally.
All because of the improvement brought by surviving a near-death battle.
"Forget it, it's the same as what's rumored anyway, you're just a cold-hearted person..." Seeing that Arthur was slow to speak, Olbia left his side.
The ship gradually approached the shore. Arthur stepped onto the dock and walked behind Olbia:
"I'll return the favor when I have the chance. Goodbye." Arthur said coldly.
When Olbia, who was tying a rope in front of the boat, heard this, he turned around suddenly with a surprised expression.
However, Arthur had disappeared from their sight.
