At sunset, several brilliant evening glows appeared in the sky.
In the commercial district of Water Seven, there was the Bolton Bar.
At this moment, the bustling bar was full of people. Incredibly, they were all women!
These women sitting in the bar shared a common identity... they were members of the Kuja Pirates!
The Amazon Lily Kingdom is located on Kuja Island. Due to its special geographical location in the Calm Belt, few ships can enter it.
As a result, while the country was far from the turmoil of the era, it also faced limitations in terms of resources and trade.
Therefore, the Kuja Pirates were formed at the official request of the kingdom. They were both the kingdom's army and a group of pirates who went out to plunder. They raided merchant ships at sea to replenish the country's wealth and resources.
This kind of situation was actually quite common in this world. For example, the official pirate force in the Country of Flowers, namely the Happo Navy, was the same. Even more extreme, the Vinsmoke Family in the North Blue was a nation of war mercenaries. As long as someone pays them, they will fight for other countries.
The Amazon Lily Kingdom wanted to optimize the overall combat power of the pirate group and reduce battle losses. So, every woman who could board the ship was an elite warrior carefully selected from the country...
At the bar counter, a woman with short, black, ear - length hair and a slender figure held a glass of whiskey in her left hand and a cigarette in her right.
She silently listened as Boa Hancock beside her recounted her experiences of these days.
"You know what! Captain Shakky, not only is Sephiroth great at cooking, but he's also very gentle..."
Shakky, the captain, picked up her glass and took a sip of whiskey. Then, with a half - smile and a teasing tone, she said,
"Little Hancock, don't tell me you're smitten with that kid?"
"Love? ... What's that?"
The long, black - haired girl tilted her head, looking a bit confused.
Boa Hancock had lived on Kuja Island, known as the "Land of Women," since she was a child. Surrounded by women all the time, she lacked a lot of necessary common sense.
In fact, this was the situation for many residents on the Island of Women. Most of the women there had never even seen a man.
Men were completely creatures from legends on the Island of Women. People had heard of them but had never seen one. Most people only had a vague understanding, let alone experiencing love...
Thinking of this, Shakky, the captain, shook her head with a soft laugh and patiently explained,
"Love... Well! It's probably like when you're with him, you feel really happy. When he's sad, you feel sad too. You want to stay by his side all the time and are willing to do anything for him...
Every time you think of him, your heart beats faster for no reason..."
Boa Hancock covered her chest with her hand, feeling the fluttering in her chest. A sweet smile spread across her face as she said,
"Is this what love is?"
By the bar, Boa Sandersonia, who was already slightly drunk, heard this. She also reached out and touched her chest, grinning and saying,
"Burp! Heeheehee! Really? I love Sephiroth too!"
"Hehe! Me too!"
Boa Marigold beside her casually chimed in.
"Do you really understand?"
Shakky looked at the three beautiful girls beside her with a skeptical expression.
"Understood!"
"Yeah!"
"I understand too."
As if thinking of something funny, Shakky suddenly grinned wickedly and waved, signaling the Boa sisters to come closer for a whisper.
The three of them were a bit confused, but they obediently leaned in to listen.
"Let me tell you! Between lovers..."
"Ah! This..."
"It can be like this..."
"It seems quite interesting!"
....
In a room on the second floor of a garden villa at No. 136, Central Street.
The cold moonlight shone through the window onto the bed. Sephiroth's eyes were tightly shut, and his chest rose and fell rhythmically.
He relaxed and carefully listened to the beating of his heart and the sound of blood flowing through his veins.
The sound was so faint that even with six times the hearing of an ordinary person, thanks to the Vampire Fruit transformation, he had to listen intently to catch it.
Beginner [b]Observation Haki[/b] is a power generated through hearing. Armament Haki is energy generated from muscle cells.
Therefore, besides his daily physical training, Sephiroth would also meditate before going to bed to practice both Armament Haki and [b]Observation Haki[/b] at the same time.
Although he was still completely clueless about Armament Haki, he had vaguely figured out some tricks about [b]Observation Haki[/b].
Suddenly!
He faintly heard the sound of the iron gate of the villa being opened. After careful discrimination, he could tell that there were three somewhat staggering footsteps entering the villa.
The silver-haired boy thought for a moment, then got out of bed, walked to the door of the room, and opened it. He saw three drunk girls in the corridor, supporting each other as they walked.
"Hehe! Sephiroth... So you're here~!"
Boa Hancock hiccupped drunkenly. She stared blankly and smiled. When she saw Sephiroth, it was as if she had found a fun toy.
"Hehe! We don't have to look for you..."
"Right! Right~!"
"What do you want from me?" the silver-haired boy asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"Hehe! Sephiroth, I'm going to conquer you and make you my man..."
"Yeah! Me too..."
"Me too..."
Sephiroth: "（⊙▽⊙）???"
With a blank look on the boy's face, the three beautiful girls dragged him onto the big bed. Boa Marigold hugged his left arm, Boa Sandersonia hugged his right arm, and Boa Hancock directly pressed herself on top of him.
Sephiroth swallowed hard, his face full of disbelief as he spoke.
"What on earth are you guys doing...?"
"Be a good boy and don't fight back, okay~! Sephiroth..."
Boa Hancock stretched out her right hand and pressed her slender index finger against his lips, stopping him from speaking further.
The long black - haired girl climbed onto his chest, closed her eyes, and murmured softly:
"I love you~! Sephiroth..."
Soon, the three girls fell asleep in his arms.
Sephiroth looked utterly bewildered (?_?)
Who would have thought that these three beautiful girls would throw a drunken tantrum after getting drunk.
The silver - haired teenager let out a bitter smile. He wanted to pull away, but unfortunately, the three girls were holding him too tightly. If he wanted to break free, he could only use force.
In the end, he let out a soft sigh and gave up struggling.
The silver - haired teenager looked at the bright moon in the night sky, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
Love and all that...
It was too heavy and too luxurious in this chaotic era...
There was no denying that he had only known the three girls for half a month. However, in the process of going through life and death with them, they had already left an indelible mark in his heart.
If one day Sephiroth lost them, he would definitely be very sad...
