"So...the memories in my mind are all false? I never came back to the castle just now?"
Anna listened to Raymond's explanation with a blushing face.
It turned out that those embarrassing scenes did not happen to him at all, but a king called "The Thousand-Faced Witch" Murphy, Shichibukai, disguised himself, did embarrassing things, and then transferred the memories.
?
Raymond nodded: "Yes... that woman can imitate anyone's aura. If I hadn't discovered the clues with my secret method, I almost would have been fooled."
"hehe..."
Have you been deceived? You almost took advantage and succeeded, yet you still call yourself deceived?
Ana narrowed her eyes slightly and gave him a strange white look.
When she heard this, she obviously chose to believe Raymond's words. It was like a scene in a dream. When she was in the dream, she didn't notice any surprises. When she woke up and thought about it carefully, some clues could be seen.
He was obviously going shopping, so why did he return to the Hot Spring Castle inexplicably? And he deliberately asked Raymond about his bet? He always only cared about the money he got, not the process of betting.
But even so...
She looked at Raymond and pursed his lips, and said faintly: "Oh, you know how to adapt to changes."
"When urgent matters arise, follow authority..."
Raymond touched the back of his head and knew she was making fun of him.
Now she is wearing exactly the same dress as the Anna pretended by Murphy just now. They are both wearing a black "gauze dark skirt" with a backless and navel exposed. This kind of skirt is like a cheongsam, with a waist-high slit in front of the body.
Fork, when walking, the slender legs are looming...
"Hey, hey, hey... Captain, where are you looking with those lustful eyes?"
Anna muttered angrily.
She remembered that she had almost been stripped naked just now, and the burning eyes left a deep impression on her.
Huh, I haven't seen you so naughty and bold even when we were in the hot springs together. Just now, you were so attracted to a strange woman?
"..."
When Raymond was caught, he looked embarrassed for a while, and silently muttered to himself: Sure enough, the ability of the [Imitation Fruit] is very immersive, so there is no difference at all...
He stared at the Anna in front of him carefully for a while, as if he had the illusion that he was being intimate with the Anna in front of him just now.
Not daring to look any further, Raymond cursed himself secretly and wanted to calm down.
...
The more I recall this scene, the more true it becomes. This is true for both of them.
Just when the atmosphere in the room became increasingly ambiguous, the door clicked open, and Helen, dressed in a gorgeous aristocratic dress, returned to the hot spring castle.
Helen was very familiar with the people in the ghost group, especially Raymond and Anna. She saw that their faces were slightly rosy, but she didn't feel embarrassed. Instead, she teased: "I didn't bother you, did I?"
The three of them had been in the hot springs several times and made more ambiguous jokes. These words did not make the atmosphere any awkward. On the contrary, the warm atmosphere became more intense.
"Sister Helen, what are you disturbing us for?"
Anna asked with a bad smile, knowing that the serious Helen would not dare to talk like this.
As expected, Helen just shook her head and chuckled, and said no more.
Anna walked up to her, held her hand, and said excitedly: "Oh, Raymond was just telling me about the 'Change-Chan Witch' Murphy who transformed into me to 'seduce' him.
Woolen cloth."
"Oh? I've met Murphy a few times. Her ability is really tricky. It's hard even for me to figure out the clues."
Hearing this, Helen's phoenix eyes flashed, and she asked curiously: "Seduction? So...has Raymond fallen into a trap?"
"I almost succeeded..."
Anna Yao wrinkled her nose slightly and said faintly: "Giggle, I probably feel that the taste of 'The King's Seven Martial Arts' is different. Our dear captain rarely takes the initiative to attack, and he almost surrendered..."
"I was determined to see through the enemy's rhetoric, and I just acted according to the circumstances..."
Raymond was quibbling, but he was really surprised. Did Anna even guess what kind of thoughts he had just now?
It was indeed because the other party was the "Shichibukai" that he felt even more lingering and lingering.
Speaking of which... the world's top bounty hunter, who is clearly out of reach, obediently allowed himself to become addicted. I'm afraid no other person in the world can do it... This advantage is enough, and he seems to be satisfied.
There are certain vices hidden deep in my heart, and a strong sense of accomplishment and conquest!
"But, having said that..."
Anna obviously caught the embarrassment in Raymond's eyes. After spending so long together day and night, she still didn't understand.
Raymond responded casually: "What?"
Anna said with sly eyes: "Sister Helen was once also the 'King Shichibukai'... If you want to satisfy some of the evil habits in your mind, you can go to her. Don't think about random things all day long..."
"..."
Helen on the side rubbed her eyebrows when she heard this, why is it all on me?
She didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Anna, what are you talking about?"
It was okay not to say this, but as soon as Raymond heard that, a certain evil habit emerged uncontrollably in his heart. Taking a closer look, Helen was wearing a dignified palace dress, with a graceful figure, elegant atmosphere, and she was indeed very good-looking.
..
Helen was a little uncomfortable with the "strange looks" from Raymond and Anna, as if someone had stripped her naked and looked at her carefully. She quickly changed the topic and said: "I almost forgot about the real thing!"
Business?
When Raymond heard this, his thoughts came back.
He obviously guessed something and asked: "Helen, when you come back this time...are you planning to take action?"
"Well. There have been very few slave ships coming recently. If we delay any longer, the slave shop won't be able to hide it."
Helen suppressed the soft light in her eyes and said solemnly: "I'm going to take action tonight!"
Raymond nodded and said: "Okay, I will also ask the local snakes to cooperate with you and make some noise in advance."
Helen's strength has been fully restored now, and she has already refined part of the power of [Chione's Winter Chain], and her strength is much stronger than at its peak. If she wants to take action, those slave trading companies probably won't.
No one can stop her.
He thought for a while and then said: "Be careful. I guess that the 'Thousand-Changing Witch' is a special tribute from the Hydra Chamber of Commerce. Be careful when the time comes and she uses her transformation ability to sneak attack you."
"Well, I'll be careful."
Helen nodded and said: "I have a very clear understanding of the situation in the leased area of the dock business. Even if I encounter any accidents, Lord Enzo will help me."
"good."
With Boss Enzo here, Raymond thought that this rescue plan should be foolproof.
But at this time,
Anna on the side asked another question that she didn't want to do with the "rescue plan", "Sister Helen, this time you rescued the people and went back, will you go to sea again?"
"..."
Helen was stunned when she heard this question. All she could think about now was how to save the tribe, and she had not thought about the future. She thought that after returning to the territory of the Pure Mao Tribe, she would continue to take on the responsibility of the Pure Mao Tribe.
It is the important responsibility of the elders of the clan to take care of the major affairs of the clan. Probably... If there is no big deal, he will not go to sea casually anymore.
Obviously, she knew that what Ana asked just now had another meaning.
Logically speaking... I can't go to sea, but why am I so hesitant to say this?
really,
Anna blinked and asked straight to the point: "Sister Helen, do you want to go on adventures with us at sea in the future?"
"this..."
Helen glanced at Raymond Anna, and then glanced at Raymond, who was also looking forward to it, with her peripheral vision, and suddenly felt a little hesitant.
She pondered for a moment, and finally thought of an idea that did not go against her true intentions. She smiled and said: "When the 'Ghost Group' grows strong enough and won't be too affected by my existence, I will come
I can accompany you on your adventure."
Anna asked again: "When was that?"
Helen dragged her chin with her slender hand, pondered for a moment, and then smiled: "Well... I'll wait until Raymond's bounty exceeds one billion."
"A reward of one billion...is a bit far away."
Anna frowned and muttered.
She thought of something, took Raymond's arm again, and urged: "My dear captain, do you hear me, work hard to become stronger! When your bounty exceeds one billion, Sister Helen can come to accompany us.
Let’s go on a sailing adventure together..."
There was no problem hearing the first half of the sentence, and both Raymond and Helen's eyes showed a little look of expectation.
But the second half of Anna's words changed a bit. She then said with a bad smile: "When the time comes, Sister Helen gets on the ship, and the captain can satisfy your desire to do whatever you want to the 'King Shichibukai'"
What a bad habit! Wow hahahaha..."
Laughter like silver bells rang through the hot spring castle, with a hint of schadenfreude.
"..."
Raymond looked embarrassed, she really didn't dare to say anything.
I'm looking forward to a strong teammate, not...
Eh... Thinking about it carefully, it seems that what Anna said makes sense?
Hearing this,
Helen on the side was also stunned for a moment. Is this what she just agreed to?
There was a rare unnatural look in her beautiful eyes, but she didn't really feel any resistance.
She glared at Anna angrily and spat: "Anna, you are really becoming more and more outspoken."
...
The secret room of the arena organizer's headquarters building.
"The Demon with a Thousand Faces" Murphy transformed into an ordinary face. She sat in the main seat and listened to the reports from several core executives of the Chamber of Commerce.
"Mr. Murphy, the finals of the tour are about to begin. The big shots from the headquarters are already here. You have to save the little one. The technical department has thoroughly investigated the last incident, and the cause of the matter is not with us at all.
.”
"I have personally confirmed it. This matter probably has nothing to do with you. But the boy from the 'Ghost Group' did get some inside information... By the way, has the man named 'Captain Jack' been found?
?”
"As for the tavern area, we just found a total of eight people named 'Captain Jack', but...most of them are poor drunkards, and they don't look like the mastermind..."
"Then keep checking! If that kid says this, there must be such a person."
"I understand, Master Murphy. Then...should we send someone to that little pirate group...?"
"Even our Chamber of Commerce cannot interfere with the winning or losing of normal gambling. Although we will lose a lot of money, the credibility of the Chamber of Commerce is the first priority."
"But Mr. [Night Emperor] also has shares in the arena, and those gangsters in Unen who are used to 'eating black people' will probably not give up this money easily..."
"Don't worry about them. There are masters in the 'ghost group'. They want to die, so just let them go."
