One Piece: King of the World from White Town

However, the same trick is useless in this world.

Because Lucien doesn't have so many classmates and friends to help her.

She doesn't even have any relatives...

This is a bit difficult.

Seeing how embarrassed he was, Senior, who was being criticized, realized that he was indeed asking too much.

Although Abel’s arrangement for the last ‘confession in the playground’ was indeed very good.

But as a man, he can't always rely on a child.

Although he never treated her like a child in his heart, they always communicated and interacted with each other on an equal footing.

"You're right, I was so anxious that I lost my mind."

"Let's go back. I'll take you to eat some of the island's specialties tonight."

"Features? Yeah, I know!"

Abel suddenly had an idea. For something like proposing marriage, there was no need to be bound by his past life experiences.

The past life is the past life, and the present is the present.

This world has its own characteristics, and he can make full use of them.

The celebration is tomorrow, and I don’t know if I can make it in time.

Chapter 197: Who should I ask for reimbursement?

The Flower Festival is the most grand festival of the year on Roman Island, no doubt about it!

On this day, all residents across the country, including members of the royal family, participate in the parades held to celebrate the festival.

During the parade, everyone needs to wear a mask that covers part of their face.

This way, we can maintain the mystery without making it difficult to recognize who is who.

You can choose to give the flowers in your hands to your family and friends to express your most sincere blessings.

It can also be used to court and express your feelings to the person you like.

On this day of the Flower Festival every year, a large number of young men and women confirm their romantic relationships and even get married.

So there are a lot of people waiting for this day to propose.

Since it was the most important festival of the year, Lucien got up early, put on her most beautiful clothes, and put on beautiful makeup.

At this time, Senior, wearing a new suit, was standing outside the door with a large bouquet of bright red roses in his hands, waiting for his muse.

When the door opens from the inside.

Lucien, wearing a white dress, stood there prettyly with a bright smile.

In just a moment, Senior felt as if time had gone back to that rainy night.

He was a little stunned, just standing there stupidly, not moving.

Until Lucien playfully jumped in front of him with her hands behind her back and took the initiative to extend her hand to him, "Excuse me, sir, is this bouquet of flowers for me?"

Only then did Senior come to his senses and hurriedly handed the flowers to the other party.

Lucien lowered his head and took a deep sniff. He immediately showed a satisfied look and said, "Let's go quickly. The parade will start soon."

Before Senior could say anything, Lucien pulled his hand and started jogging.

Gradually, a happy smile appeared on his face.

If Abel saw this scene, he would definitely scold him for being useless and not taking the initiative at all, like a fool.

The celebration started soon and on a grand scale.

Leading the way was the royal family's exclusive float, pulled by a gorgeously dressed elephant.

Behind them were the floats of the nobles, which were obviously smaller in scale than those of the royal family, but were numerous.

Next are the powerful officials and wealthy businessmen. Being able to join such a group is enough to show their status.

Finally, a group of lucky people are selected to ride on the floats, as well as various performance teams.

In addition, most of the civilians lined the sides of the road, cheering loudly for the big shots whom they usually never saw, watching all kinds of wonderful performances, and enjoying the festive atmosphere.

Lucien and Senior stood among the vast majority of civilians, inconspicuous.

Until the beautiful princess announced publicly that she would invite a lucky person to ride on the elephant float with her and walk through the entire parade.

"Me? Is it really me? Pike, I must be dreaming!"

When Her Royal Highness the Princess pointed accurately at Lucien among the crowd, Lucien was both surprised and nervous.

"It's you, Lucien. Go quickly and don't keep Her Royal Highness the Princess waiting anxiously."

"But I..."

"Haven't you always wanted to experience what it's like to ride on a parade float? Now your dream can come true! And it's not just an ordinary float, it's the most distinguished elephant carriage. What are you still hesitating about?"

"Then what are you going to do? We agreed to be together..."

"Don't worry, you go first. I have my own way. You will definitely be able to see me at a glance when the time comes."

Under Senior's persuasion, Lucien had no choice but to nod and agree. Under the escort of the guards, she successfully boarded the elephant cart, and then sat on the elephant's back with Her Royal Highness the Princess, enjoying the cheers of everyone along the way.

At this moment, Lucien felt a sense of unreality as if her dream had come true, yet she was at a loss for some reason.

She turned around to find the figure that could make her feel at ease and safe, but she couldn't find him.

So much so that during the following parade, she was absent-minded the whole time, always thinking about someone.

It was not until the celebration was halfway through that Lucien could no longer sit still and wanted to leave.

Suddenly, countless balloons of various colors were released into the air.

Then, with a sound that was not sure whether it was a gunshot or firecrackers, a large number of balloons exploded in the air.

Then petals rained down from the sky.

"Wow! So beautiful!"

"Oh my god, so many petals."

"It's so beautiful, it takes my breath away."

"Look over there, someone is blocking the road for the celebration parade!"

"What? Who is so bold? Are the guards responsible for maintaining order asleep?"

……

Amid exclamations and noise, and with flower petals raining down from the sky, four white horses pulled a not-so-big but very exquisite float and stopped the parade.

Lucien covered her mouth with her hands in surprise.

Because the man she was thinking about, Senior, was actually standing in the float opposite her. He took off his sunglasses and looked at her affectionately.

Abel, who was driving the float, slowly stopped the car.

Under the gazes of thousands of people, Senior took out the ring and said what might be the manliest words he had ever said in his life.

"Although I am not a prince and cannot give you a noble elephant carriage, you can always be the princess in my heart."

"so……"

"Lucien, will you marry me?"

Wow! ! !

The people who thought something was going to happen were instantly excited!

Although on this day countless people will find their lover, and even propose to their loved one.

But he was the first person to be so brave as to intercept the royal parade float to propose!

And it was such a grand event!

Now no one would think that the shower of balloons and petals was part of the celebration.

This guy obviously came prepared!

Not only did no one step forward to drive them away, but even the royal family members all looked like they were happily watching the fun.

If you think about it more, from the moment the princess chose the people to travel with, it had nothing to do with luck.

But no one blames the injustice. In comparison, people still prefer to see such a romantic story!

"I do! I do! I do!"

When Lucien, with tears of happiness in her eyes, immediately climbed down from the luxurious and noble elephant carriage, ran to the small float, and threw herself into the man's arms, the atmosphere on the scene reached its peak!

Countless people are cheering for the precious love they are witnessing today!

Everyone was satisfied, except Abel, who was calculating the cost.

It's easy to guess what price one would have to pay if one wanted the royal family to cooperate with this performance.

Senior probably can't afford it, and he doesn't know whether Doflamingo will reimburse him.

Oh, worry!

Chapter 198 Bad Woman

"Your Highness, just send it here."

"Then...next time, when can you come? I'll take you to see the sea of ​​flowers. There are all kinds of beautiful flowers planted there. Judging by the time, they should all be in full bloom soon."

"Okay, if I have the chance, I will definitely come back."

"Then it's a deal~"

"Um……"

Abel, who was about to leave by boat, felt helpless when he saw the beautiful princess who was reluctant to leave.

In order to organize a grand and romantic proposal ceremony for that guy Senior, he had to consider the royal family of this country.

Only with the cooperation of the other party can he turn all his ideas into reality.

But the good news is that the flag of their Don Quixote family has long been hung here, and the entire country is protected by the Don Quixote family.

Of course, this protection sounds good, but in fact it is to accept "tribute" openly.

This is also the significance of occupying territory.

So Abel decisively went to the palace and revealed his identity as a cadre.

Because of the wanted warrant, the royal family easily confirmed his identity.

Then there is a series of negotiations and bargaining.

It was not a big deal, and the royal family was not stupid. They would not refuse and offend the Don Quixote family, which was at its peak in the North Sea.

In addition, with this relationship, if something really happens in the future, can the Don Quixote family just ignore it?

This is a profitable deal no matter how you look at it.

In the end, both parties reached a result that satisfied them.

But Abel never expected that his charm would be so great that he could bewitch the princess who had just turned 18.

Although he repeatedly stated that his actual age was still too young.

But Her Royal Highness the Princess said that she was still young and could wait.

The most interesting thing is that her father, the king, did not object to his daughter's pursuit of happiness, nor did he care about Abel's "special status".

Perhaps this is a common problem among the people of Roman Island. For the sake of romantic love, they don't care about anything.

Everyone has the right to pursue his own happiness, and even the king cannot deprive him of this right.

But Abel himself knew that it was impossible for him to stay in the North Sea forever, and it was even more impossible for him to spend a peaceful life with the beautiful princess.
