The days when I wanted to be a human being

After hearing Shanks' enthusiastic invitation, Zhou Ling also thought about his stomach which had not been rewarded for the past two days.

When I was about to mobilize my mental power to fly down, I discovered that the side effect of the backlash of my mental power seemed to make the mobilization of my mental power a little obscure.

So Zhou Ling bent his knees and jumped down.

"Oh!"

With a bang, Zhou Ling landed on the beach, raising a thick cloud of dust.

"Cough cough!"

She picked up the newspaper in her hand and fanned the dust in front of her. Just as she was about to walk towards Shanks, a piece of paper with the characteristics of the One Piece world slowly fell.

When she wanted to use her mental power to pick up the falling papers, she remembered that it was a bit difficult to use her mental power now.

On the other side, Shanks noticed that Zhou Ling didn't come, so he turned and looked at Zhou Ling.

Then he saw a scene.

Standing in the dust, Zhou Ling lowered his head and stared blankly at the slowly falling papers.

It wasn't until the paper fell onto the sand that Zhou Ling bent down and picked it up.

Then he saw Zhou Ling holding the paper that looked like a bounty order and looking at it for a long time.

Shanks was chewing his meat, and when he saw Zhou Ling not moving, he shouted:

"Miao, aren't you hungry? Come quickly!"

"Read the newspaper when you have time, otherwise the meat will burn and won't taste good."

Shanks never had the habit of reading newspapers, so he put the newspaper directly into the cave after buying it this morning.

"Okay, you eat first, I'll wait."

As Zhou Ling spoke, he put the wanted poster in his hand into the newspaper and began to flip through it.

She had just flipped through it, but she was only looking for news about Roger.

She decided to take a good look at it this time.

First page.

"A story about a woman and two men."

This first headline didn't look like a serious report, and Zhou Ling had no desire to read it at all.

She turned to the second page.

"Shock! What kind of woman could make a pirate fight the navy?"

This second title seems interesting, but how dare a pirate attack the navy? Isn't this really bold?

But Zhou Ling didn't plan to read it. She wanted to find news about herself.

That's right, what she was looking for was news about herself.

The bounty just now was hers!

Zhou Ling was a little confused by the sudden bounty. After all, apart from saying some tough words to Zhan Guo yesterday, she had not offended the navy in any way, so there shouldn't be a bounty warrant for this.

In Zhou Ling's memory, the Warring States in the anime didn't seem to be a petty person.

Zhou Ling turned to the third page and continued reading. As she read more and more, her hand holding the newspaper tightened unconsciously.

This caused many wrinkles to appear on the already smooth newspaper.

"..." After reading the third version, Zhou Ling was completely speechless. The corners of her mouth trembled. What the hell is going on!

Just when she was about to continue watching.

The newspaper was snatched away by a greasy hand.

It turned out to be Shanks.

He saw that Zhou Ling was so busy reading the newspaper that she didn't even eat, so he came to Zhou Ling and snatched the newspaper.

In the past, Zhou Ling was always the most active when eating, but this time it was so rare.

Shanks said with interest: "I want to see what it is that is so attractive."

He decided to see what was written in the newspaper.

A year ago, Zhou Ling sent him to a place on the island called the Tree of Omniscience to study.

He wanted to prove to Zhou Ling that he had learned enough and didn't need to go to school anymore.

So Shanks began to recite.

"Shocked! What kind of woman could make the Grand Line pirates and the Navy Vice Admiral put aside their disputes and reconcile at the same time?"

"The feud between the beautiful swordsman, the vice admiral of the navy, and the pirate."

"Who is this mysterious woman, and how dare she challenge both the pirates and the navy at the same time?"

After Shanks read a few titles, he was stopped by Zhou Ling.

"Enough!" Zhou Ling became more and more impatient as he listened, and snatched the newspaper back from Shanks in anger.

"You kid..." When Zhou Ling was thinking about how to teach Shanks a lesson, she found that Shanks was staring at a bounty warrant in his hand with wide eyes.

Zhou Ling just felt that the bounty order was a little familiar. It was the bounty order she had put in the newspaper before.

It turned out that the bounty order stuck in the newspaper had fallen out when she tried to grab the newspaper back just now, and was picked up by Shanks.

She just didn't notice.

She was about to take the bounty back from Shanks.

"Goo!"

Shanks swallowed the unchewed meat in his mouth and said in shock:

"Great! This is you!"

"Why are you suddenly being rewarded by the Navy?"

He looked at the order on the bounty warrant and felt it was somewhat strange.

The photo of the bounty warrant should have been taken from Zhou Ling's left rear side.

She was wearing black clothes that she never changed, and was drawing a sword, but her head was slightly turned in the direction of the photo.

Her deep eyes looked into the camera, as if she saw through everything.

"One, ten, white, thousand..."

Shanks didn't wait for Zhou Ling to reply. He walked to the fire and started counting by the light of the fire.

It turned out that at this time, it was already dark.

Zhou Ling looked at Shanks who was so serious and couldn't bear to interrupt him, so she sat down by the fire, picked up the roasted meat and started eating.

While eating, she began to think about her future plans.

The bounty on her has been issued, so her previous plan of seclusion may have to be changed.

After all, her location was clearly marked on the bounty order, so it was impossible for her to stay here any longer.

As for where to go next, she had no idea, but she had a way to avoid being wanted, and that was to exit the mature woman form.

But considering that the Navy might have other intelligence about her, this method can only be put to future use.

After all, the navy knew that she was carrying Shanks, and no matter what she turned into, she might be discovered by someone with ulterior motives.

So if you really want to change your form to avoid being wanted, you have to get rid of the trouble of Shanks first.

As for how to solve it and how to solve it quickly.

The only person Zhou Ling could think of was Roger. All he had to do was find Roger and then throw Shanks to him.

Then there is no need to worry about any trouble.

Just then, Shanks took a breath.

"hiss!"

"One hundred and sixty-six million, four hundred and eighty thousand! Miao, this is too much."

Shanks said this as he wiped the oil from his mouth, but he didn't expect it to become even oilier the more he wiped.

Zhou Ling heard the bounty Shanks counted out and was speechless, "Count it again, you must have counted less."

"If you count incorrectly, you will continue to go to school tomorrow."

She decided to leave Shanks in the care of the scholars.

Those CP agents who are secretly monitoring Shanks will definitely not put him in danger.

Why did she know those agents wouldn't threaten Shanks?

That was of course because she had already gone to look for them.

After getting the news from them that they were sent to secretly protect Shanks, she ignored them.

It would be better for her to leave here as soon as possible.

Soon someone will surely come and cause trouble for her.

This is not a place to stay for long.

"No way, there are only this many." After counting again, Shanks shouted confidently to Zhou Ling.

Zhou Ling took the bounty order, counted them, and found that the last spirit was covered by the oil stains on Shanks' hands.

"You kid, wash your hands when you read the newspaper next time!"

Zhou Ling pointed at the oil stains on the bounty warrant and said seriously, pretending to hit Shanks on the head.

Shanks shrank his head when he saw this, he didn't wait for Zhou Ling to hit him.

Confused, he looked up and saw a few sparks of fire on the sea in the distance.

"Great! That's..."

Just as he was about to ask Zhou Ling what that was, he faintly heard the sound of artillery shells.

"Hey~"

"Hey~"
