[One Piece] She comes from a private server

On the fifth day after entering the pagoda, Alicia stepped out of this place and looked at the world outside in a daze. She finally came out alive.

"Tch, what's the use of being stronger? You're just being fooled around by a group of lowly wandering girls." Ishikawa crossed his arms behind Alicia and sneered with a sneer.

"First, they are geishas, ​​not geishas." Alicia turned around and dropped a blow on Ishikawa's head without mercy. "Second, even if they are geishas, ​​it does not mean they are lowly."

"It hurts! You idiot Saiki! How could I be wrong? It's obviously a fact recognized by everyone!"

"They didn't enter a place like the veranda willingly." Alicia looked into the pagoda, as if she could still vaguely hear the laughter and moving music of the geisha coming from inside, but it was all an illusion. Today, the geishas are going to Orochi City to perform, and since the work has been done, there is no need for them to gather here anymore, which is why Alicia finally has time to go out for a walk. "As a citizen of Wano, don't you know how pathetic this country is?"

Ishikawa was stunned. Is it sad? Indeed it is. He couldn't help but think of the deceased Ryoko. She was also a geisha in the Flower City, but he never felt that Ryoko was inferior. He just felt sad and angry for her experience. Why?

Seeing the deep thought on Ishikawa's face, Alicia did not continue. It is a good sign to start introspection. Some issues are better left to Ishikawa to figure out for himself.

The Flower Street in the Capital of Flowers has always been prosperous, and it has been even more crowded recently because a new Shibaban noodle restaurant has opened on the Flower Street. In order to have a bowl of unique 18th-century noodles, a long queue formed in front of the noodle shop, and without exception they were all beautiful women.

Alicia's footsteps paused. If she saw it right, there were several familiar faces mixed in the long queue at the noodle shop.

"Hey, idiot Saiki, it's those Yu...those geishas."

Alicia took a step back, struggling internally. What are you doing? Didn't you say you were going to perform for the big snake? If you don't go to the verandah to get ready, what are you doing here to eat noodles? Go or run away, that is the question.

"Xiaolan! Ajin! Look over there!"

"Ah~ it's Master Saiki~"

"Saiki-sama~ We were all very happy yesterday~" The geishas in the team didn't care about queuing up to eat noodles, and ran over arm in arm with picturesque smiles. Faster than them was a duck dressed as a Wano warrior, flying towards Alicia like a scud. "Ah! Something bad happened! Master Saiki was attacked by a duck!"

Alicia's eyes were blank, and she sat on the ground helplessly, unable to move. The orioles and swallows gathered around her, one holding her arm, the other hugging her neck, each leaning against her body to greet her. Beside it was a duck that was quacking and making angry accusations. From a certain perspective, it can be regarded as "Saiki Kusuo's disaster" in another sense.

This commotion attracted the attention of everyone in front of the noodle shop, and also attracted the attention of the Straw Hats.

"Alicia?" Sanji paused in the action of grabbing noodles and looked at the scene not far away with his mouth open. For a moment, he didn't know whether to envy Alicia who was surrounded by beautiful geishas or to envy the one who could touch Alicia. Geishas.

"Ah..." Robin, dressed as a geisha, covered her mouth with her sleeves and rolled her eyes with a smile, "It's really incredible."

"That's Alicia?" Usopp murmured, his eyes straight, "What kind of identity did she forge for herself to lead to such a colorful scene? Sangoro, don't be jealous - ah hey! I’m so jealous that I can’t even recognize it!”

"As expected of our partner, super popular~" Franky said, passing the empty bowl to Sanji, "It's delicious, please have another bowl."

On Alicia's side, she was bombarded by Kentaro's wild words. She struggled to poke her head out of the arms of the geishas and comforted the angry cat;

"I'm so sorry! Kentaro! I didn't mean to leave you alone, but I really can't take you with me! As compensation, will I give you ten milk puddings?"

"Gah!"

"Twenty, no more, your stomach won't be able to bear it."

"...Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"

"Ah~ Mr. Saiki is so gentle even to a duck~ It really makes me dizzy~"

Alicia: No need, I'm already dizzy.

"Ladies, if you don't hurry back to the verandah to get ready, you'll be late for the banquet. Please don't let me delay your work."

"The considerate Mr. Saiki is also great~ I am really fascinated by it~"

"Okay, okay. I know, please get up from me."

The geishas dispersed laughing, and Alicia held her chest and breathed in fresh air.

"I thought I was going to die..."

"Tch, just push them away. You were bullied by a group of geishas just because you were too polite, idiot Saiki." Ishikawa squinted and gloated.

"That's because you don't understand the scary part of literature." Alicia tidied up the clothes that were messed up by the geishas, ​​bent down and touched Kentaro's head, fed him a milk pudding, and then brought one man and one duck with him. Go to the noodle shop. Partner lane, no need to queue.

"Everyone is here." Alicia waved weakly to Usopp, Robin and Franky who arrived in Wano Country early.

"What's your attitude, you guy? We all just witnessed a very impactful scene, and now you actually speak in such a weak tone, you really deserve a beating." Usopp put down the bowl and teased. "If you weren't a girl, you would probably be number one on the curse list by Sangoro."

"Speaking of which, my character is also a geisha?" Robin raised an innocent smile, "Oh, shouldn't I also show Master Saiki's fanaticism? It's really distressing."

"...Ah." Alicia pressed her mask to resist the undesirable thoughts of her companions, "I advise you to stop, otherwise I will be unable to hold back and use force."

"..." Sanji's hand holding the noodle basket trembled slightly, and countless pure emotions gathered in his eyes - grievance, envy, longing, and joy. Qiaodou Sack seems to have strange emotions mixed into it. "Want to try my unique Shibaban noodles?"

It was obviously a simple question, but it sounded inexplicably full of resentment to Alicia. Want some comfort? It's better to appease him.

Alicia used her wide sleeves as a cover and thrust a phone bug into Sanji's hand like a thief, while she quickly hooked his hand and let go. She cleared her throat and pretended that she had done nothing wrong.

"Ah, um, the unique Shibaban noodles? Let's have a bowl."

"Hey~ I'll do it for you right now~" Sanji, who was immediately soothed, smiled like a fool, and the phantom tail behind him swayed happily like a propeller.

"By the way, Alicia, what on earth did you do? I don't see you every time. Although we are all moving separately, isn't your whereabouts too mysterious?"

"It's Kusuo Saiki, not Alicia. My whereabouts? Top secret, you will know when the time comes."

"Tsk, there's nothing top-secret about it, but it's just——" Ishikawa tried to spoil the spoiler without giving face, but Alicia covered his mouth and pinned him to the ground for a while and rubbed him.

"Huh? Who is this kid?" Franky looked down at the miserable Ishikawa.

"For the time being, you can be regarded as my disciple and attendant boy."

"So Master Qi Mu brought his servants out to show off?"

"I'm begging you, Robin, stop teasing me."

"My name is Arobynn, Lord Saiki~"

"Ah, forget it, just do as you like..." Alicia lay down, they were all partners anyway, and if they were laughed at, they would be laughed at.
