"Cyrus, you are now arrested on charges of murder!"
"If you dare to resist, we will shoot you on the spot!"
"Wait, Captain Tegu Repant."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Soldiers parted to let the young king, with his square face and blood-stained cheeks, step out of the guard circle.
"Thank you for your help. I am Riku Dold III, King of Dressrosa."
"Bazaar, a pirate."
Upon hearing this, Cyrus, who was on guard nearby, couldn't help but complain:
"Hey, didn't you just say you were a mortal who wanted to become a hero?!"
"Aren't pirates ordinary people?" Bazel retorted.
Cyrus was speechless for a moment, then suddenly remembered the important matter he was planning to do.
"Damn it, I won't surrender! I—???"
Looking at the ground beneath him that had suddenly become suspended in mid-air, Cyrus tilted his head in bewilderment.
"Kid, do you really want to kill the king of this country?"
Hanafza, holding Cyrus by the back of the collar, asked with a mocking smile:
"We've heard quite a bit about this king; he's a rare benevolent king in this vast sea."
"I...I don't want to kill him."
Cyrus's hands were clenched into fists, his head was bowed, and shadows covered most of his face.
"But his soldier killed my best friend! Just because my friend was in his way!"
"I'm not a murderer, I was just avenging my best friend!"
Hanafza looked at Bazar, showing no sign of restraint despite the fact that this was someone else's territory.
"Are you taking this brat with you?"
Are you very free?
After Hanafzai released Cyrus, Bazel glared at him with dead fish eyes and complained:
"I'm already exhausted just teaching that brat Enel. If I add another one, I'll be worn out."
"I didn't become a pirate to become a master of the sea, so please don't meddle in other people's family affairs."
"I have really important things to do next, I don't have the time to take care of the little brat."
"Young man~"
Bazel squatted down next to Cyrus, his smiling face making the boy feel uneasy.
"You're not that much older than me, so straighten up, you jerk!"
"pain"
Hanafza withdrew his smoking fist, and in his pupils reflected Cyrus's head, a large red bump was slowly rising.
"You're the one who should straighten up your attitude. He's the murderous maniac Bazel from the rumors of your Dressrosa Kingdom."
"Be careful, he might turn this place into hell when he gets angry!"
"Hey, hey, hey, how many rumors are you going to spread about me?!"
Bazar stood up and raised his foot to strike, but Hanafza stepped back and dodged.
"Damn it, you were the one who made up that weak and feeble rumor last time, weren't you!?"
"Do you know how much effort I put into clarifying these rumors?!"
"Don't run, you spreading rumors, you bastard! Today I'll show you why the flowers are so red!"
Barzel and Hanafza left in a playful tussle, and seeing that no one was in charge, Amezuki had no choice but to step forward.
"I'm sorry, my husband left me with this mess."
"I am Amatsuki Toki, and I am Bazel's lover. He is not a serial killer, so please don't misunderstand."
"The people he killed were all scum and slave traders."
King Riku Dold III smiled and shook his head, indicating that Toki Tsuki didn't need an explanation.
"The most important quality of a king is not to readily believe any fact that he has not seen."
"The rumors about Lord Bazel are indeed outrageous, but I would never judge a person's character lightly without seeing it with my own eyes."
"Your name is Cyrus, right?"
Cyrus, who had been forced to kneel by the soldiers, raised his head and looked at King Riku's blood-covered face with a complex expression.
"From now on, you'll follow me. Of course, you'll still have to face the necessary punishments."
"No matter why that soldier killed your friend, he was still a member of the kingdom's army, and even if he was wrong, it should be executed by me, the king."
"Two days ago you chose to kill him to avenge your friend, and today you suddenly attacked me when I was just trying to take my daughter shopping. The two crimes combined—"
"Let me think about it."
"Got it!"
Just as King Riku was about to deliver his verdict, a beautiful little girl with delicate features suddenly ran up from behind.
"Father!!"
"Oh~ it's my lovely little Scarlett~"
Before turning to hug his daughter, King Riku hurriedly wiped the blood from his face with his sleeve.
"Father is discussing something very important, Scarlett, could you wait for me?"
Scarlett nodded vigorously, broke free from her father's embrace, and hid behind his thighs, curiously observing Tenzuki Toki and the group of pirates.
"Cyrus, if you achieve a hundred consecutive victories in the bullfighting arena, not only will all your sins be forgiven, but I will also grant you your freedom."
"100-game winning streak—"
Cyrus, who was forced to stand up by the soldiers' wrists, gradually straightened his back.
"What if you change your mind?"
"Go back on your word? Hahaha~~~"
King Riku and his soldiers burst into laughter.
"Young man, he is our great king!"
"The king's words are like Thor's thunderbolts—they are never to be taken back!"
By now, many soldiers have come to their senses.
It seems that the king, who values talent, has taken a liking to this promising young man.
If this boy who killed the kingdom's soldiers can really achieve a hundred consecutive victories, he will most likely be promoted and become one of my colleagues.
As for that dead soldier, a man who killed a boy for his own selfish reasons, he probably wasn't a good person either.
If someone dies, they die; at most, they'll receive some compensation.
"Commander,"
Tegu Repante stood at attention, his right fist slamming into the heart of the armor.
"Take him to the bullfighting arena and inform the person in charge there that if this young man can achieve a hundred consecutive victories, report back to me immediately."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Taigu Repint, accompanied by a few men, personally escorted Cyrus to the bullring.
At the shaved ice stall not far away, Kaido and others arrived at some unknown time.
He was currently sitting with Bazel and the others, watching the excitement.
"Hehehe, this guy's not bad, I've made up my mind!"
Kaido slammed his hand on the table, causing four cups of shaved ice to bounce slightly off the surface.
"I'm going to invite him to join the Beasts Pirates!!"
puff~
A violent cough, along with shaved ice, came out of Bazel's mouth.
Hanafza's lips twitched as he wiped the saliva and shaved ice from his face, his eyes fixed on Bazeir.
"You better apologize to me, or next year on this day, Miss Shi will be burning paper money for you!"
"Oh, sorry, don't misunderstand, I did it on purpose."
Bazel casually wiped away his drool.
"If you want to fight, I'm happy to oblige. I can use you to practice my Gear 3 form."
"You bastard—take this, Monkey Kicks Peach!!"
King hurriedly picked up the strawberry smoothie that he and Mr. Kaido hadn't finished eating and took two steps back.
"You two idiots! Mr. Kaido hasn't finished his shaved ice yet! I'll kill you!"
"ha!?"
Bazeir and Hanafza, who were already on the verge of fighting, exchanged a glance.
"That miser has been getting a bit arrogant lately, Bazel, what do you think?"
"Kids who misbehave usually deserve a beating; a good thrashing will fix it," Bazel replied honestly.
"Great, let's form an alliance."
Their hands clasped together, and then, under the incredulous gaze of the man, Bazel and Hanafza activated their human-beast forms and walked towards him.
"You two just—plop plop~!!"
With a kick that sent him flying, Bazel turned and sprinted, shoving two cups of shaved ice into Kaido's hands before letting out a roar and charging into the midst of the battle.
Kaido glanced at the shaved ice in his hand, then handed it to Olga.
"Hey, you're the king of this country, aren't you?!"
"Want to make a bet with me?"
bet?
King Riku Dold III asked curiously, "You're the captain of the Beasts Pirates, right? I've seen your bounty. What do you want to bet?"
"【DavyBackFight】, as the king, you must know this game. I'm betting on you."
Kaido pointed at Riku Dold III and grinned:
"I really like your personality. Let's have a fight. If you win, I'll just walk away. You can contact me anytime if you ever need anything."
"No matter who the enemy is, no matter where I am, even if I can't get here in time, I will send my men to support me."
"If you lose, you join the Beasts Pirates!"
"Let's change the world together, lol!!!"
