Chapter45

Willingness x choice x negotiation

——This world is really too vast

I'm afraid that one day you'll be wearing that smile that I've been chasing all my life.

Disappear

--------------------------------

"Hey, Kuzan"

She called to herself, with hesitation on her slightly sickly face.

"Thank you for saving me and taking care of me like this, but..."

The slender fingertips pinched nervously, and the blue and clear eyes like the sea looked straight at him.

"Can I leave here?"

His moist lips opened slightly, and the words he spoke suddenly hit his heart.

There's a little pain

He can't do anything

It has been nearly a month since Seleustine arrived in Marineland. Not to mention the half-month-long period in which he was in a coma, it was already more than ten days ago that he moved into Sakaski's house.

She began to become more and more anxious day by day

At the last moment before she was injured and fell into coma, she watched helplessly as her brother disappeared in front of her eyes. Even if Sally later told him that the Straw Hats had disappeared and their lives were probably safe, she still couldn't let go of this.

What's more, she originally wanted to go back immediately after finding her brother.

She made a promise with Shanks that she would come back to him

Seleu wants to go back

Not only to keep her promise, but also because as she stayed in this strange environment for longer and longer, she began to miss the familiar Foss more and more, missed the desserts made by Lachie, and missed the food from Beckman. The joy of receiving pocket money, I miss the person who always lies with me on the deck chair, lazing in the sun together

she misses them very much

But this is Marineland, where the navy headquarters is located. The person who brought her back was Sally, who had the rank of general. Kuzan, who treated her warmly and kindly, was her friend with whom she had always corresponded, and Sakaski.

The relationship between that person and his former self is not clear to Seliu, but he can clearly know that he is an extraordinarily different existence.

She was hesitating. She knew that these three people had been worried about their wounds. Every time they took careful care and concern, they were unfailingly true.

But, she didn't want to cause any more trouble to them. She knew her own body best. With the current abilities of the three of them, they couldn't cure her at all. The hospital also tried its best.

At this time, she felt a faint fear towards the bandaged wound.

So I want to go back. If I really can't be cured and can only let this weak body drag down my life, then I want to go back to Shanks.

At least in the last days of her life, she still wanted to be with that person and watch him be free and wanton on the sea.

Just in time, she fulfilled her promise

She will come back to him and never leave again for the rest of her life

Kuzan put down the bouquet of delicate and dewy flowers in his hand.

He approached the little girl sitting on the swing, and his silence made Seleu even more nervous and restless.

"I mean, it's nice here, but I don't want to cause you any more trouble. I can go back to my friends."

She hurriedly explained that it was actually better that she didn't say this. As soon as she mentioned her friends, the manic depression in Kuzan's heart became more and more intense.

He came to Seliu, lowered his eyes, and looked at her without saying a word.

Suddenly, the tall man stretched out his hand and covered Seliu's eyes that were looking at him nervously.

Then Kuzan leaned forward slightly and hugged the petite and fragile person in front of him.

"Don't look at me with that look."

In Seliu's ears, his words were as soft as a whisper that he didn't intend to say to anyone.

Selustine, who covered her eyes and was hugged by him, couldn't see that the eyes of the man hugging her were full of complexity and unwillingness.

It seems that no matter when the time comes, his name will not appear in the options of the little blond girl in his arms.

She was willing to follow Sakaski, who was cold and ignorant of gentleness, home, hoping to drag her seriously injured body back to the red-haired ship.

Only, I never said anything similar to the promise to myself

He just thought that if he asked her again if she was willing to go with him,

Can get a positive answer from that soft voice

But now, from the faintly longing eyes, Kuzan clearly knew

He couldn't keep her, and neither could Porusalino and Sakaski

Seleustin has seen the world outside and never wants to return to their courtyard and be a delicate flower.

"What did you say? Have you decided on the candidate for marriage?"

Cracker stood up abruptly. The shell made by the cookie man reflected the shock of its owner, and the expression on his rough face became more and more ferocious.

The person in front of him was not frightened by him, because it was one of his younger sisters, Custard, who had violet hair that was darker than his kite-purple hair.

She slowly picked up the tea cup and took a sip of hot black tea. Her nonchalant look was in sharp contrast to her brother who looked very excited across from her.

"What's wrong? You're so surprised. Didn't you bring this up?"

Indeed, at the regular family meeting a month ago, Cracker proposed the marriage with Germa 66 in front of everyone.

Although Germa has never stopped trying to establish close relationships over the years, the fact that one of the generals attached so much importance to the proposal was beyond the expectations of almost everyone present.

Why do you say almost?Because there is one person who obviously knew this would happen.

The person who is worshiped by everyone in the Charlotte family, the model of strength and perfection, the second brother Katakuri

What's even more surprising is that the two actually had a dispute in front of their mother because of this matter.

Custard clearly knew that his brother, who proposed the marriage, must have his own purpose. Looking at him like this, he might have taken a fancy to one of the girls of the right age from the other family.

Katakuri's intervention suddenly made her unsure about this idea again.

Because the focus of the dispute between the two is not whether to get married, but the candidate for marriage.

Cracker obviously wanted to be the initiator of the marriage and naturally marry the girl sent by the opposite family, but Katakuri was in a stalemate with him on this issue.

It's not that they want to marry him, they just oppose Cracker as a candidate for marriage.

No matter what the truth was at the time, or what the two were arguing about, this is how it looked in Custard's eyes.

It would be better to say that almost everyone present was unwilling to speculate in other directions.

The most beloved second brother, the purpose of the dispute with Cracker is to replace him and marry Germa?

Are you kidding? It's impossible.

Katakuri is not such a boring man. He has always been a perfect existence without blood or tears. How can someone who is never moved by anything put his eyes on others?

Not to mention falling in love with a woman who doesn’t know where she came from.

That day, my mother was also made impatient by the two of them. Even if they were both the four most beloved generals by her mother, such a meaningless tit-for-tat confrontation would probably be very boring in her opinion, so although the final marriage was It was decided, but there was no follow-up to the debate about the candidate.

Until today, Germa's people sent news that the other party had decided on the candidate.

And he was the one who made his stupid brother's little calculations come to nothing in an instant.

Because the other party is a man, the Charlotte family naturally chooses a woman to conclude this political marriage.

Cracker ignored his sister who was calmly chatting away and gossiped. He fell back heavily on the chair again.

No, this is different from what he remembers

Isn't Gaji unwilling to send the children of cadres for marriage?Where did he get his extra son to marry into the Charlotte family?

No, the extra son, maybe there really is one

Cracker clenched his fist and slammed it on the table, startling Custard.

In his memory, the person Gaji was willing to let go as a victim of the marriage was the third son who had disappeared early in his life.

But later, until Seleustin was about to become his bride, this so-called third son did not show up, so he dared to propose marriage to his mother so brazenly, and he was not worried at all that the candidate would be someone else.

Because Seleustin is not in Germa now, even if Gaji wants to take her back, it will probably take a lot of effort. As expected, Gaji will still choose to let Seleus after weighing the pros and cons. Ting came over to make a marriage alliance, so that she could use her mother's hand to forcefully recall this disobedient daughter.

But all this is based on the fact that his damn wandering son will never appear again.

Once worthless waste appears, how can Gaji use priceless treasures to trap wolves that are not well-raised?

It was a miscalculation. Now it is extremely difficult to find a candidate to change the marriage.

Originally, as one of the generals, he was not within the scope of his mother's choice. Because he brought this matter up on his own, he could barely make this possibility more likely in front of his mother.

Now that the other party has decided to marry a man, how could my mother take the initiative to ask the other party to change someone and marry her as a general?

Cracker gritted his teeth, and veins popped out on his clenched arms.

No, there must be another way,

Don't you want to send a useless son over?

Then kill him and see if Gaji is willing to send his second son to die.

The possession and plundering of beloved things by the Charlotte family is engraved in their bones and blood. As a large pirate group that has been entrenched in one place for many years, it has very little benevolence, morality and contract spirit.

In this sea, it is common for black people to eat black people. If Germa can't send the person he wants,

It would be better to find an opportunity to defeat them all, master the coveted scientific power, and then naturally take the homeless girl into his arms.

Marlin Vandeau——

A huge ship docked on the shore, attracting many people to look at and watch overtly and covertly.

It is not accurate to say that it is a ship, because it is too big, and there are even patches of woods and gray castles on it.

A tall woman walked out of the shadows

She was dressed in an unknown combat uniform. The cape behind her was like butterfly wings. Her pink hair looked particularly dazzling in the sun.

Led by a group of well-prepared naval soldiers, she opened the door to the naval headquarters.

In the reception conference room, the current naval marshal was sitting at the main seat, waiting for her to explain her intention.

She sat down on the stool at the table and smiled

"I am here to represent the Kingdom of Germa"

"I want to talk to the Navy about my two useless brothers and sisters."
