Chapter 489 Departure: West Sea!
On the night of March 2, 1483 in the Haiyuan calendar.
Heavy snow fell on G6, and a blizzard was forming at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Cap glared at Arthur who was standing alone on the harbor shore.
The navy is negotiating a deal with him, offering the lives of all the island's residents in exchange for his companions and his departure.
Judging from what happened in prison just now, he did not lie or brag.
He could freeze their lower limbs instantly, and probably carry out his threat to kill everyone on the island instantly.
Ordinary people don't have the strength to fight against people with special abilities, so it's easy for them to be frozen and turned into pieces in an instant.
Such a terrifying ability made Garp dare not take risks.
"How's Sengoku?" Garp asked Crane behind him, "Did Zephyr take him to the hospital for treatment?"
Tsuru stopped Gion and replied, "He's undergoing emergency surgery. His body is very cold and he's unconscious."
Upon hearing the news, Karp was very worried.
The friendship they share now, which is as strong as life and death, is above everything else.
soon.
At the port, Fat Tiger was tied up and carried out by several marines.
Cooper's wings were tied with ropes, and his neck and talons were bound with shackles.
Leia, with her hands and feet shackled, was escorted to the port by two female soldiers.
The scars on their bodies have not yet healed.
Compared to Arthur, their condition seemed extremely weak.
Seeing them, the arrogant smile on Arthur's face disappeared instantly and his mood became very complicated.
"This is all I can give you! I absolutely cannot give you a warship!"
Crane said to Arthur in a cold tone, "Take your people and leave quickly."
Arthur looked back at the shore. The navy only gave him a small rowboat that was 6 meters long and 3 meters wide.
A single mast and a piece of canvas, no food, no water, not even any shelter from the wind and rain.
Calculated by volume, Fat Tiger alone filled the entire deck.
The shackles of his three companions were removed in front of them by the navy.
Cooper used his wings to crawl to his feet, trying to get close to him to find a sense of security.
Arthur blinked in pain and held it behind its neck, letting it ride on his shoulders like a child.
Leia was still shaking, her eyes wide with fear.
Because of her injuries, she could hardly stand and could only kneel down under him.
"..." She didn't say anything. She was extremely scared and looked up at Arthur, who was half naked.
I was very surprised that all his injuries were healed.
Even the cuts on his body caused by the knife had completely disappeared, leaving no flaws.
Only then did she understand why Arthur was not afraid of death and dared to risk his life with anyone.
Leia then lowered her head and sat on the ground to Arthur's left, waiting to take him over to deal with the incident.
"I want one more thing!" Arthur pointed his knife at Gion behind Crane.
"She shaved my hair! Give me her hat! Let me go!"
They could accept this condition, just a navy cap.
Gion glanced at Tsuru and didn't want to give Arthur anything.
But in this situation, he had no say at all.
"Give it to him... There's no need to increase casualties." He soothed.
"Sister, I don't understand." Gion took off his navy cap and held it in his hand.
"Why not kill him? If he escapes from here, he will cause trouble elsewhere and many people will die."
"We will start the hunt immediately, it's okay." Tsuru confessed to Gion,
"Headquarters will also send troops."
As long as Arthur leaves the island and does not threaten civilians, they will arrest him immediately.
"Heh." Arthur listened from the side and sneered.
He didn't think anyone could catch him unless he came to him.
Gion tossed his hat to Arthur.
Arthur caught it from the air, put it on his head immediately, and invited her affectionately,
"Come with me, Gion. Everything I do is for you."
Just wearing a navy hat and his infectious and determined gaze, he doesn't look like a pirate at all.
On the contrary, he looked very much like a marine.
In such an occasion, facing such an invitation, the invitation was issued with an opposing stance even after the other side had killed many navy men and caused a series of disasters.
It's a ridiculous joke to let a navy girl become a pirate.
Gion couldn't suppress his anger and yelled at her, "You must be joking!!"
Being rejected on the spot, Arthur turned around and picked up Fat Tiger's huge body and stuffed it into the deck.
Then he used her as a mattress and let Leia lie on its soft body.
"Goodbye, Gion." Arthur looked back at her and said,
"I will never come to you again! It will be good to you and me now."
The small boat slowly hoisted its sails and left the G6 port.
Seeing the culprit who caused this incident walking away, Gion suddenly shouted loudly,
"I will definitely catch you! I will never be deceived by your evil words again!"
This scream almost broke her throat, and her vocal cords felt as if they were being rubbed by sandpaper.
"Cough cough..." Gion covered his throat and coughed violently.
"Gion, are you okay?" Seeing this, He hurriedly asked about her condition.
Gion choked with sobs and turned to leave the ruins, "Wu... Wu... Liar."
……
The boat that left G6 drifted on the sea.
Arthur sat cross-legged on Fat Tiger's shoulders, stroking it with a melancholy look in his eyes.
"Arthur, are you okay?" Leia's hoarse voice of concern came from behind, completely unaware that her own body was in terrible condition.
Arthur, with mixed feelings, said nothing and just kept stroking Fat Tiger's head.
Just one loss of control led to such a big incident.
Breaking into the hive triggered a fierce battle between Rocks and the navy's top brass.
When he met Sengoku, he couldn't control his hatred, which resulted in the goodwill he had accumulated from Gion being lost.
"We are too weak." Leia saw that Arthur didn't say anything, so she lay back on Fat Tiger and looked at the gloomy sky.
"Meeting that kind of opponent won't be of much help to you."
Hearing this, Arthur turned and looked at Leia.
What he needs is a woman who cares about him all the time.
Even if you don’t have strong power, even if you are just an ordinary person.
Arthur narrowed his eyes and thought deeply: If you don't want to repeat the cycle and suffer again, then don't dwell on regrets.
Even if she loves Gion, she has not experienced much yet and does not have the temperament and vision that she will have in the future.
Just a little girl consumed by hatred and acting on impulse,
Contacting her will only make things worse.
"This won't happen again," Arthur promised them.
"I promise I will take responsibility for your lives."
Leia's pale face showed surprise, and then she smiled with relief.
I didn't expect Arthur to be like this.
Once power is not controlled, it will lead to unimaginable tragedy.
Arthur didn't want to repeat the same mistakes of his previous life.
"Thank you." Leia was delighted and asked, "Where are we going next?"
"West Sea." Arthur immediately told her his purpose, "The Kingdom of Flowers, we will settle there.
This incident will definitely increase my bounty, so I have to disguise myself and keep a low profile."
The Kingdom of Flowers, one of the most powerful countries in the pirate world.
Arthur decided to go there to practice and use it as a base, wandering around the entire West Sea to see if he could find someone with good talent who could be trained as a partner.
It just so happened that the Valley of God incident would break out a year later, and he also wanted to get a piece of the pie.
"Well, it may take me a few months to recover before I can serve you." Leia said tactfully.
"If you think I'm a drag, just throw me away."
Arthur looked at her again and saw another decision on her smiling face.
"I'll take care of you, don't worry." Arthur said and touched her hair.
He was very pleased with her performance and loyalty, and she did not betray him even when facing death.
I'm about to die, yet I still worry about him.
Leia's eyes were moist, unable to hold back her tears, and she couldn't hold back the emotion welling up in her chest, so she burst into tears.
"Oooooh! I'm really scared! Lord Arthur!"
"Cry, cry as much as you can. Holding it in will drive you crazy. I'm an example of that."
Her cries echoed on the sea.
What Arthur needs now is a woman who has eyes only for him and is loyal to him until death.
She is one.
And Tori Toma.
Gion is completely two different people when she was a child and when she grew up. Arthur doesn't know how to face her.
Now her sense of justice is too strong, which makes Arthur helpless, but he will not stop loving her because of this.
"My only expectation has been shattered. I no longer have any illusions about anyone." Arthur stretched out his hand to feel the sea breeze, "And it caused such a big commotion.
I didn’t live like a human in my last life, so let me experience the colorful world in this life.”
Arthur clearly understood the incident and reached out to touch Cooper, who was lying on his shoulder and wearing a navy cap.
"There's no need to expect anything, because happiness is on my shoulders."
