One Piece: Dark Sky

"crack, crackle"

This is the sound made by Baan's Explosive Flame Wave Sword still burning the corpse of the 'Snake God'.

At this time, the 'Snake God' has turned into a black residue all over the place, except for a curved and burnt black trace that can prove that this was once a snake, it is nothing.

"Chirp!"

Seeing that his master had won, Fitz immediately swooped down from the sky, landed on Bahn's head, bent down and lightly pecked Bahn's forehead.

"chirp"

"Ah, I won!"

Seeing Fitz caring about him, Bahn couldn't help smiling, but the exhaustion caused by fighting and using the fruit ability swept over him, and a strong drowsiness caused Bahn to fall to the ground and fall asleep...

"Chirp! (Really!)"

Bahn flapped his wings and landed on Bahn's chest, looking at the fallen Bahn, he cried out in complaint.

"Wow! All of this was done by that creature called a man? He killed the 'snake god'?"

It turned out that it was Ashe who accompanied Queen Guloriosa back here, and what they saw was the Martial Arts Field with two huge gaps and the huge black marks shrinking in the Martial Arts Field.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Aixi still calmly answered the Queen's questions as usual, but her gaze never left the huge black mark, and her eyes that were so bright in the past, unexpectedly had that slight loss of focus...

"Hey! There he is!"

Seeing Bane who was lying on the ruins of the Martial Arts Field at this time, Guloriosa broke away from Ashe's arm and ran towards him.

"Female... Your Majesty the Empress!"

Feeling that Gulo Liosa broke free from her arm, Ashe immediately came back to her senses, saw that the queen was running in the direction of Bahn, and followed.

At this time, Fitz, who was guarding the dead body, saw the two women who had 'bullied' him running towards him, and immediately tweeted to warn them.

"Jiujiujiu! (Don't come here!)"

Guroliosa squatted down beside the corpse-holding Barn, patted Fitz's head, and said

"Don't be afraid, little guy, we don't mean any harm, we just want to see what kind of people 'saved' our country."

I don't know whether he really understood Guloriosa's words or was attracted by her beauty, Fitz actually jumped off Barn's body, flew onto Guloriosa's shoulder, and rubbed his head her face.

(Hey, hey, how about betraying your master like this?)

"Haha, don't be like this, it's so itchy!"

Guroliosa stroked Fitz's feathers with her hand, smiled and stopped its intimacy, and then looked at Bane who fell asleep on the ground.

Ashe also caught up at this time, seeing a complicated emotion flashing in Bahn's eyes.

"So, Ashe, what's the name of this creature called a man?"

"According to what he said, his name is Barn Bashuit, and he is a pirate."

Guroliosa tapped her lips with her jade-like fingers as if thinking

"Oh? Are there any pirates with a righteous heart in this world?"

"Subordinates...don't know."

This question made it difficult for Ashe to answer.

"Then, Ashe, do you think this man is quite handsome?"

Gulo Liosa turned her head and looked at Ashe with a smile and said.

"ah?"

"Um...here?"

It is not known how many times Bahne said this sentence again. Anyway, no matter where he is, when he opens his eyes, it is still pitch black. It's just that the surroundings give him a different feeling.

"you're awake?"

Instead of Ash's cold voice, a sweet voice like Celia sounded.

"Ah, here is it?"

"Chirp!"

"Huh? Fitz? You're there!"

Fitz flew over Bahn's head, bent down and lightly pecked Bahn's forehead as a response.

"This is Ai's bedroom."

It was that sweet voice again, and the owner of the voice was the queen of Nine Snake Island, Gu Luoliosa.

Guloriosa turned her head to look at Bahn, but what she saw was not the eyes facing her, but a pair of pale eyes looking elsewhere.

"You! Your eyes?"

Guroliosa was surprised that she hadn't noticed Baan's eyes when she saw him before.

"Ah, this one, I've been blind for a long time."

Bahn was already used to being treated differently by others, but at this time he seemed very calm.

"Did you kill the 'Snake God' in this state?"

Gu Luoliosa obviously didn't believe or couldn't believe that a blind man could kill the "snake god" that made the whole country have no way to deal with it.

"Ah, because I have Fitz!"

Bahn smiled at her and replied with a smile.

Gu Luoliosa was shocked, she did not expect Bahn to be such an optimistic person, maybe this is exactly where he is strong.

"So that's why he asked for his bird back before the duel with Ashe?"

Guro Liosa thought so.

Having figured it out, Gu Luoliosa changed her previous superior attitude, she stood up, walked in front of Bahn, and bowed gracefully.

"Although you can't see it, please allow me, the current emperor of Nine Snake Island, Gu Luoliosa, to salute you as a strong man, thank you for beheading the 'snake god' for us, please allow me to grant you The title of 'Hero'!"

"That...Your Majesty, there is no need to do this! I didn't do anything, there is no need to do this!"

Bahn was a little embarrassed by the seriousness in Gu Luoliosa's tone, and waved his hand quickly.

"Please allow me to grant you the title of 'Hero'!"

It was still that sweet voice, but there was an irresistible imperial demeanor in his tone!

"This... this feeling..."

Bahn was taken aback by Gu Luoliosa's aura, and a bold idea appeared in his mind

"Could it be...the domineering look?"

"Please allow me to grant you the title of 'Hero'!"

The voice rang in Bahn's ear again, but Bahn did not refuse this time.

"All right……"

He agreed, and Gu Luo Liosa also stood up again.

"That's right"

The sweet voice of that innocent girl was restored in the tone, and Barn couldn't even believe that the voice full of momentum just now was made by her.

"Chirp!"

Fitz didn't know what happened, he just thought it might be a good thing, so he chirped happily.

"Okay, Lord 'Hero' Barn, get ready, Aijia will hold a banquet for you, thank you for your kindness in saving the country!"

At the banquet, Bahn sat with Queen Guroliosa, Captain Ashe of the National Defense Warrior, and other ministers of Hydra Island.

Not surprisingly, all the people attending the party were women.

There are also many women who are trying not to make a sound and observe him around Bahn, but Bahn can feel it, just pretending to be calm.

On the contrary, it was Fitz, standing above Bahn's head, with his head held high, looking around at the surrounding women in a gesture of superiors looking at subordinates.

During the banquet, Empress Guloliosa stood up and cleared her throat.

"Ahem! Quiet!"

Everyone stopped their whispered discussions, and the women who had been surrounding Bahn also returned to their seats, quietly waiting for Gulo Liosa to speak.

"People of Nine Snakes Island! Today is the day when Your Excellency Barn landed on Nine Snakes Island for the first time. Three days later is the 'Snake God Festival' and today the so-called 'Snake God' came to Nine Snakes Island to make trouble, causing Many casualties were caused by His Excellency Barn, who resolved this disaster with his own efforts! From today on, Nine Snake Island will retain the day of "Snake God Sacrifice" and cancel the original cruel sacrifice tradition, and the "Snake God Sacrifice" will It's a national holiday!"

"Good! Hahaha!"

Everyone present happily agreed.

"Ahem, be quiet!"

The people present fell silent again.

"I have decided to confer on His Excellency Barn the title of 'Hero of Nine Snake Island'! Always win the respect of our Nine Snake Island people!"

"Papa papa papa" (this is the sound of clapping... Don't get it wrong!)

"Your Excellency Barn, please come here."

Gulo Liosa invited with a smile, and then Bain, led by the maid, came to Gulo Liosa.

"This is a necklace made of the fangs of the 'snake god' you killed. As a token, you will gain the respect of all of us on Nine Snake Island!"

"Papa papa papa (this is still the sound of clapping...)"

Bahn accepted the reward from Gu Luo Liosa, and also took the 'snake tooth', and returned to the banquet. The banquet was still going on happily, and everyone's face was filled with happy smiles, except, Ashe...

In the garden of the banquet hall, Bahn and Ashe were walking side by side. Fitz, who curiously took a sip of wine, was already drunk and was dozing off on Bahn's head.

The two of them walked like this...

After a long silence, Ashe spoke first.

"My sister is the sacrifice of last year's "Snake God Festival"..."

Bahn was stunned, and stood where he was. Ashe took a step forward and turned back, but her face was full of tears.

Out of control, she actually slapped Bahn...

just hear her cry

"Why! Why didn't you come earlier! Then my sister wouldn't choose to be a sacrifice! Why!"

Bahn was silent...he grabbed Ashe's hand who was about to slip, and said "I'm sorry"

Ashe couldn't bear it anymore, she knelt on the ground, hugged Bahn's leg, and burst into tears.

Bahn was very sad, it was an indescribable uncomfortable feeling, he could understand Ashe, just like the mood when he and Brooke parted.

He put his hand on Ashe's head and said softly.

"Ash, teach me how to use domineering, so that I can protect more people."

Ashe, who was crying bitterly, raised her head, looked at Bahn, and nodded.

"Um!"
