Pirate: When I Become Kuina

Two years later.

One Heart Dojo.

"looking at what?"

It was the voice of Shigetsuki Koushiro, and the sound of his steady and restrained footsteps.

"It's nothing."

Father and daughter stood side by side, looking at the merchant ships busy unloading goods at the port a thousand meters away.

Shigetsuki Koushiro's patience was beyond imagination, and he watched Kuina motionlessly for two hours.

Zoro also came here a few times during this period, but left again soon.

"Guina, if you have something on your mind, my father is very willing to listen."

The child who didn't like to talk took the initiative to ask the merchant ship about overseas affairs, and especially asked about Cocosia Village. Shigetsuki Koushiro had already guessed a lot.

It seems that a group of incredible pirates have arrived in that sea area.

"Want to eat oranges."

Kuina's words were like a spell with a magical aura, causing silence all around.

After a long time.

Shigetsuki Koushiro returned to his ever-changing smile.

"It seems that my father is not a good listener. I'm sorry."

"Can't you?"

"My father is really ashamed to let his daughter down."

It seems that it will be difficult to eat oranges again in the future.

What a despair this would be for a little girl.

At sea, merchant ships drifted away.

"Have you ever hesitated?"

Koina's voice floated to his ears, Shigetsuki Koushiro stared into the distance and replied: "Of course, it is my precious daughter's wish after all."

"Father, please go back. The merchant ship has already left."

Shigetsuki Koushiro's face turned slightly red, and a hint of embarrassment appeared.

"Haha... Kuina, are you still watching?"

"Ah."

"What are you looking at?"

"Watch them disappear into the sky."

"You'll always come back, won't you?"

"maybe."

Shigetsuki Koushiro knelt down, put his hands on Kuina's shoulders, and turned her to face him.

"If you want to eat oranges, you must practice harder, Kuina."

"Father, you are like a pool of stagnant water without any ripples."

"Haha... Silly boy, no matter how exciting the time is, it will be nothing but calmness in the end. You will understand when you grow up."

After rubbing Kuina's head lovingly, Shigetsuki Koushiro muttered: "For the sake of oranges, work hard."

The cheap old father left, but left behind a lot of homework.

Kuina, who spent a lot of time completing her homework, silently returned here, facing the sea.

The sky gradually dimmed.

Another starless night.

Noise always sounds at the wrong time, interrupting people's racing thoughts if they are not careful.

"Guina!"

"I brought you dinner."

Zoro ran extremely fast, and he always seemed to be full of energy.

"Eat quickly."

Kuina looked at Zoro sitting cross-legged next to him, took the lunch box and said, "Thank you."

Zoro smiled back, looked into the dark distance and said, "You are in a bad mood today. What are you thinking about after sitting here for so long?"

After taking a bite of the rice ball, Kuina felt a little uncomfortable.

"Nothing, I just want to see the sunrise."

"Then you can't see it. There are no stars. It will definitely be cloudy again tomorrow."

"I know."

"You know why you are waiting?"

"Nothing to do with you."

Zoro glanced at Guina, and then said: "Then I will wait with you."

Guina frowned and said, "It's up to you."

This guy is really good at picking up girls, and he's quite thick-skinned.

After finishing the rice ball, Kuina clapped her hands and activated her fruit power to eliminate the stains on her hands.

Very amazing ability.

Zoro looked at the stains falling on the ground in fascination.

Since that day, Kuina has never hidden the ability of the Slippery Fruit in front of Zoro.

Although Zoro was curious, he didn't ask.

Because Kuina said that this was her special ability and should be kept secret.

No one asked, no one said, and then it evolved into what it is now.

After a while.

"Guina."

"I don't want to duel."

"That's not what I'm talking about!"

"Oh."

"I just want to ask... did you have a fight with the master?"

"He didn't eat?"

"I didn't eat."

Guina was silent for a while and then said, "Maybe she is secretly sentimental."

Zoro didn't know why and asked: "What are you sentimental about?"

"Desolate times."

Zoro looked like he didn't quite understand. He turned his head twice and finally grinned with joy.

"As long as it's not a quarrel."

"Ah."

"Kuina, let's duel."

"..."

Speechless, really.

Zoro seemed to be unable to see the situation clearly. Seeing Kuina not speaking, he loudly said, "Let's duel, Kuina."

"not in the mood."

"A fight will make you feel better."

"I reject."

"Because of pirates?"

As a qualified follower, Zoro understands most of the things Kuina does every day.

"No."

"Then why?"

Looking at the other side of the sea and looking at Sauron's stupid face, Kuina really wanted to raise her hand and give him a big slap in the face.

They are both members of the Straw Hat Crew, but why were there such big differences when they were young?

"Shut up, you idiot." Guina couldn't bear it anymore and cursed.

"Damn it, I want to duel with you!" Sauron gritted his teeth and his voice was hysterical.

"Then it's as you wish." Guina was filled with anger and immediately stood up to attack Sauron.

After a while, the world became quiet.

A gust of wind swept through.

Guina straightened her hair, and her clothes whistled.

Could this be the wind blowing through her?

There is no smell of despair, only fishy smell.

Kuina left and went to the kitchen.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door of Shigetsuki Koushiro's room.

"You came."

"coming."

"I know you're coming, come in."

"Yes father."

Placing the hot food on the table, Kuina poured wine for Koushiro Shigetsuki.

"Father, let's eat."

"Haha...it's so rich, just looking at it makes me very appetizing."

Shigetsuki Koushiro picked up the vegetables with a smile, and the only sound left in the room was the sound of him chewing.

Guina was sitting next to her on her knees. Whenever the wine glass was empty, she would fill it up again with the wine jug.

Some words may affect other people's appetite and need to be said after the meal, but unexpectedly, Shigetsuki Koushiro took the initiative to speak.

"We can't change anything."

"I know."

"No, you don't know. If you really knew, you wouldn't come here."

Guina was stunned.

Shigetsuki Koushiro picked up the wine glass and drank it all with his head held high.

"The wine is empty."

"Oh."

"Go get a cup and have a drink with dad."

"Don't you agree with me drinking?"

"Go."

After a while, Guina came back. After sitting down on her knees, she held the wine glass and said, "Here's to you."

After clinking glasses and downing the strong drink, Guina explained her intention.

"I want to go to that sea."

"What to do?"

"Go and see."

"There's just darkness."

"Then take a trip into the darkness."

Shigetsuki Koushiro said no more, and drank cup after cup with Kuina until the wine was empty and the dishes were cold.

"If only you were a boy."

"I think so too."

"Haha... With your talent, if you were a boy, you would definitely become a great swordsman, Kuina."

"Father, do you plan to imprison me forever?"

"hold on."

"No, you will not allow me to go to sea, not in this life."

"You're drunk, Kuina."

"I'm sorry, father."

Shigetsuki Koushiro sighed deeply and compromised: "Let's do this, Kuina. It happens that my father will have a friend come to the island to purchase supplies in the past few days. When the time comes, you can get on his ship and go to sea."
