The crew of One Piece all want to blame me

"Thank you so much."

Being put into this cell again and still tied up, Seth sighed softly.

"...sorry."

Allen opened his mouth hesitantly, and finally apologized helplessly.

He never thought that these pirates would use him as a hostage to force Seth, Cecil and Yaying to surrender. But the pirates are really bold. Forget about Cecil and use his life to threaten the other two people? Haven't you ever thought about directly tearing up the vote from the other side?

He and Cecile can only be regarded as acquaintances, but Seth... they haven't officially met yet, right? From Seth's perspective he was a complete stranger.

But it was this ridiculous threat that actually made the three of them put down their weapons and surrender, and obediently followed the pirates onto the ship.

Allen was confused throughout the whole process and couldn't figure out why this ridiculous threat worked.

"I heard what Cecile said...Thank you for saving me."

"Uh...how did you recognize me?"

After hearing Seth's thanks, Allen reacted.

It turned out that he recognized himself.

"Cecile was so panicked when you were caught by Deaver. It's probably impossible for you to be an ordinary villager. So I guess it's probably the owner of the herb shop she often talked about."

"...That's it...but I'm really sorry. If it weren't for me, you guys would probably be able to escape easily."

"Everyone treats each other. If it weren't for us, you wouldn't be involved in this muddy water. And..."

Having said this, Seth glanced at the harmless Allen and swallowed the second half of the sentence.

Deaver probably didn't know that he had just come close to death.

The moment Deaver caught Allen, Seth felt an unprecedented chill. His body's instinctive reaction told him that this was a fatal threat.

However, this kind of breath is too weak, and it disappears very quickly, so it is impossible to capture it without a certain amount of strength. There is no doubt that Seth was the only one present who clearly felt this threat.

In Seth's mind, it was impossible for anyone, including Deaver, to give him such a threat. After excluding all the impossible people, there is only one possibility left, the herb shop owner-Ellen.

However, the man seemed to be worried about something and did not kill Deaver after being caught.

Hidden strength? Or some other reason?

"and?"

Allen blinked and looked at Seth's curious question.

"I guess I made a mistake."

Seth looked directly into Allen's eyes and said lightly.

"......"

Seeing Allen lowering his eyebrows and avoiding his gaze, Seth did not force him, but turned to look at the door to change the subject.

"Don't worry Yaying. She is strong enough to protect herself. But Cecile is too soft-hearted. She should compromise for our safety. So we cannot delay time."

Hearing this, Allen nodded and replied softly.

"There are two people outside the door and five people in the corridor."

"kindness."

Seth nodded knowingly and did not ask Allen how he knew. Then, Seth gently tapped the rope, and saw a sharp little wind blade cutting through the rope.

After regaining his freedom, Set helped Alan untie him.

"How are we going to get out? If we want to escape in secret..."

I can lead the way.

Before Allen could finish speaking, Seth walked to the door and said calmly.

After escaping so many times, he was already getting angry. In order to live a peaceful life in the future, this person must be dealt with.

"Don't be so troublesome."

‘Bang! ——’

Seth waved his hand lightly, and the entire door was blown out by a strong wind. The two pirates who were standing in front of the door guarding Seth and the others were sent flying to the opposite door by this sudden blow.

"Follow."

"...The so-called...people should not be judged by their appearance?"

Seeing Seth walking out in a domineering and upright manner, Allen shook his head speechlessly and followed.

"You...how did you get out??"

"Come, come! The navigator has escaped!"

"Let's go! There are just two weak people, are we still afraid of them?"

The pirates saw the two of them panicking for a while, but they immediately came to their senses and realized that one had been caught by them twice, and the other was just the owner of the herb shop, and there was no threat at all. The five pirates looked at each other and rushed over with their swords drawn.

Looking at the five people rushing over, Seth raised his arms slightly and entered a fighting posture. Then he glanced at Allen behind him and said softly.

"Don't force yourself."

"!.."

Although Seth didn't know why Allen hid his strength, he knew that strong people had their own self-esteem. This kind of self-esteem will never allow the weak to get on top of themselves and act wildly.

However, Allen would rather be controlled by Deaver, who was countless times weaker than him, which shows that he had a reason and did not want to expose it until absolutely necessary.

If that's the case, then he should help people to the end. And he doesn't have an aggressive personality and can't do anything to force others.

Allen looked at Seth, who was already in a melee with five pirates, and silently hid the blade in his hand.

He couldn't remember the last time he was tolerated unconditionally. Maybe...since the old grandfather passed away, he has never found a place where he can stay peacefully.

He is not an ordinary person, no matter how much he pretends to be, it will be exposed over time. Many people will ask him where he comes from, why he knows this, and why he comes here.

And these... are the realities he is escaping from.

So he has been drifting, looking for his own resting place. He decided to leave this village long before he met Cecile and the others. Because this place is not suitable for him either.

However, the fateful encounter was like this. He met Cecile the night before leaving and helped her rescue Seth.

Later, Cecile probably noticed it too. How can a herbal shop owner be proficient in first aid? How was it possible to discuss medicinal herbs with Cecile, who had grown up in a medical environment? And got her approval?

However, Cecile, like Seth, said nothing and asked nothing. He even took the initiative to avoid sensitive topics, giving him a long-lost sense of security.

"Okay, let's go."

Unknowingly, Seth knocked down all the dozen pirates who rushed over after hearing the sound, reminded Allen, and then took the lead up the stairs.

After looking around at the staggering pirates, Allen quickly followed Seth.

They were imprisoned in the lowest level of the ship. Cecile and Yaying were not here, but were imprisoned in other places by Deaver. They had to act as quickly as possible without giving the pirates time to react.
