One Piece: King of the World from White Town

There are absolutely no limitations, and her potential has been raised to a level that was not originally at this height.

The future queen of weapons?

Maybe you can look forward to it seriously!

……

“Hey, hey, hey, hey, I heard that you managed to deal with Rao and learned new things from him? This is not an easy thing to do.”

Inside the room, Doflamingo looked at Abel standing in front of him and smiled wildly.

Abel nodded and complained, "I even found some new ways to play and played cards with that weird old man for several nights."

"It's a good idea to cater to his taste. Even Jorah has been praising you a lot recently."

Doflamingo nodded in satisfaction, then skipped the topic and started talking about business.

"I called you here this time because of Pique..."

"Something happened to Pique?"

Abel's heart tightened. He hadn't seen Pieck for a while. When Doflamingo mentioned him suddenly, he had a bad feeling.

As if noticing his nervousness, Doflamingo shook his head slightly, "Don't be nervous, Pieck shouldn't be in any danger."

Doflamingo's words made Abel even more confused.

"That is……"

"Pike went to Roman Island some time ago to carry out a mission."

"The mission was completed smoothly, and Pique contacted the family immediately."

"But after so many days, Pique hasn't come back yet. The reasons he gave are all very strange. I think he may have encountered something difficult to solve but he doesn't want to tell me."

"So I'm going to ask you to go over there and see what that guy Pique is doing, and most importantly, bring him back to me immediately!"

It’s not that Doflamingo doesn’t trust Pieck, otherwise it would be Diamante or Trebol who would go looking for someone instead of Abel.

It is precisely because Doflamingo saw that Abel and Pieck had a closer relationship in the family, so even if Pieck saw Abel appear at that time, he would not be angry, nor would he misunderstand anything.

"Yes, I'll leave right away."

Abel took the task very straightforwardly. No matter what happened to Pique, it was better for him to go than for others to go.

But originally he wanted to bring Baby-5 with him and try to collect some souls.

But the current situation was obviously not suitable, so he gave up for the time being.

Before leaving, Doflamingo also reminded him, "If you encounter a situation that you can't solve, just contact me directly using Den Den Mushi."

Abel didn't think that would be the case.

After all, Pique has never lost contact, he just finds various reasons not to come back.

It must have been delayed by something.

Otherwise, with Pique's character, even if someone put a knife to his neck, he would remind everyone to be careful when contacting his family!

So the possibility of being held hostage by the enemy can basically be ruled out.

"Then what else could be the reason?"

Abel quickly boarded the family's smuggling ship and couldn't help but think about it.

I hope this operation goes smoothly.

Pique, I'm coming to you!

Chapter 94: Reasons for Not Going Back

Roman Island is a small island with simple folk customs and beautiful scenery.

Most of the residents on the island are hospitable, and life is full of tranquility and peace, without all the intrigue and fighting like outside.

So when Senior Pique came to this island with a mission, he immediately made up his mind to try not to affect the normal lives of ordinary people here.

His mission was completed successfully, and after informing the young master of the results, he prepared to leave the island.

Although life here is peaceful, it is not suitable for people like him.

But it seems like a joke played by God on purpose.

Suddenly it began to rain heavily.

Senior looked at his new suit and decided to find a place to shelter from the rain.

laugh……

Under the eaves, he lit a cigarette and calmly watched the heavy rain outside which showed no sign of abating.

He thought, since the mission had been completed, it didn't make any difference whether he returned earlier or later.

However, at this moment, he saw a woman running barefoot in the rain with sandals in her hands.

The woman seemed to have noticed his presence as well, and immediately ran towards the place where he was hiding from the rain, and a few minutes later, she broke into a man's heart with a rude and unreasonable attitude.

"Phew, it's raining so hard, I'm getting wet~"

The woman was not stunningly beautiful, she just had orange hair and some freckles on her face.

But her cheerful and bright smile made Senior's heart beat faster for some reason.

He couldn't help but ask, "Why are you still smiling even though you're soaked by the rain?"

"Because...I like rainy days."

It was that smile again. He clearly liked rainy days, but his smile was as warm as the sunshine.

This woman...

A throbbing feeling he had never felt before began to appear in Senior's heart.

Then, like a young boy who had just begun to fall in love, he stumbled over and started talking to the girl, asking some very boring questions.

But the woman never showed any impatience. Instead, she happily chatted with Senior.

"What kind of people do you hate?"

Senior asked in a roundabout way, looking forward to the other party's answer.

The woman's answer was straightforward, without hesitation, "Pirates, I hate them the most."

"By the way, what do you do for a living?"

Senior's face was stiff, and he began to sweat anxiously. He subconsciously made up a lie.

"Ah... I'm... I'm at a bank... Yes, I work in a bank, as a bank clerk."

"Hey, being a bank clerk is a great job~"

"Yes...yes."

In such extreme agony, Senior didn't even know when the rain stopped, let alone how he left in the end.

But he remembered the name.

Lucien!

The woman who made his heart beat was called Lucien.

……

"Hi, Mr. Peake~ What a coincidence, we meet again. Didn't you go to work today?"

"At work...ah, I have today off. You know, bank employees always have better benefits, so they have more days off."

"That's great. I can only envy you as someone who works part-time at a flower shop every day."

"actually, I……"

"Oh no, I'm going to be late! Let's talk next time. Bye."

……

"Welcome~Excuse me...Mr. Peake?"

"Um, I...I came to buy flowers."

"Buying flowers? Are you planning to give them to someone?"

"Um……"

"What kind of flowers would you like to buy, Mr. Peake?"

"That's it."

Senior was sweating nervously again, so he pointed to a bunch at random.

A look of confusion suddenly appeared on Lucien's face.

"what happened?"

"Ah, nothing much. May I ask who Mr. Peake is planning to give it to?"

"I haven't thought about it yet."

"Then I suggest that Mr. Peake should change to another kind of flower, because this kind of white chrysanthemum is usually bought to express grief, and it may not be a good idea to give it to others. But I personally like it very much~"

Senio immediately showed an embarrassed look, but fortunately he had sunglasses covering his eyes, which prevented him from running away.

Then, on Lucien's recommendation, he bought a bunch of beautiful carnations and left.

Little did he know that after he left, the smile on the beauty's face never disappeared.

In the following days, Senior did not leave the island, always trying to find ways to create encounters, as if seeing Lucien every day was a very happy thing.

Until one day he walked out of the flower shop holding a bouquet of freshly bought flowers in his hands.

"Hi, Pique! Long time no see. Are these flowers you bought for me?"

Outside the door, Albert greeted Senior generously.

In fact, he found the other party even earlier, but because he wanted to see what Pique was doing, he did not show up and chose to follow Pique.

As a result, in the face of such clumsy tracking, Pique was completely unaware of it?

Simply incredible!

So he had no choice but to show up.

"Abel? How could you…"

Senior was surprised at first, then he seemed to remember something and immediately shut up.

At this time, Lucien, who came out with him, asked curiously: "Mr. Peake, who is this child?"

"My nephew."

"I'm his brother."

"Eh?"

The two glared at each other and then replied again:

"My brother."

"I'm his nephew."

"..."

Abel shrugged and wanted to tease him some more, but when he saw Senior taking off his sunglasses and his eyes about to spit fire, he had to signal Senior to speak for himself.

"It's like this, this guy's name is Abel, he's a distant relative of mine, I'm his uncle by seniority, but I usually treat him as my own brother."

I don’t know if it was because of his quick wit from lying in the past few days, but Senior was able to get away with this.

Lucien didn't delve into it further. She bent down with a bright smile and wanted to touch Abel's head, but Abel took a step back and dodged.

"Sorry, I don't like being patted on the head."

"What a handsome boy with a lot of personality~"

Even though she was avoided, Lucien was not angry. Instead, she smiled and praised Abel.
