One Piece My Partner is Too Crooked - Chapter 30
Using that kind of condescending look, this goddess will go over there right now and heal the injuries of that red-haired pirate for you to see!
Icey’s contemplative appearance fell into Aqua’s eyes, more like a questioning from her heart.
So, Aqua, who was always strong, turned her head and walked towards Shanks, surrounded by the cadres.
“Fool, what are you trying to do?” With quick eyes and hands, Icey reached out and grabbed her.
This guy used the few remaining powers on, well, disrupting his plan to blow off Higuma’s head with one shot, and now he’s close to being overdrawn.
Who knows what terrible backlash might occur if she forcefully uses the healing blessing?
Aqua was forced to stop. Hearing the rare anxious concern in Icey’s words, her displeasure quickly dissipated.
“Icey, you fellow, are you worrying about me?” Those sky-blue eyes narrowed slightly, pretending to have an inexplicable look, “Don’t try to explain, the perception of this goddess now is very keen~.”
“I’m worried that you’ll embarrass yourself by going over there. As your companion, my face will be greatly lost.” Icey said nonchalantly.
“What embarrassment! This is simply a great insult to the gods I believe in, the Akuksis faith!” Aqua twitched her mouth, roughly rolling up the pure white sleeves on her arms, and walked towards Shanks with determined steps.
“If you really want to prove yourself, then come and help me heal.” Icey’s voice came slowly from behind, “After all, because of some idiot, my chest was also severely cut by Higuma. If it’s not treated soon, the wound will heal.”
Upon hearing this, Aqua’s footsteps abruptly stopped, turning her head to blink her clear, big eyes.
“Huh? When did Luffy cause you trouble?” She frowned, full of doubt.
Icey: “…”
There was more than one idiot present just now!
Can’t you have a little self-awareness?
Although Aqua, with her head tilted, couldn’t recall anything about Luffy after the tavern incident, the fact that Icey’s chest was wounded was indeed true.
Thinking that this could also prove her worth as a goddess, she turned back, reached out her delicate and fair hand, and gently pressed it on Icey’s chest.
As her wise eyes became serious, Aqua’s unique goddess aura was finally displayed, a faint, warm light shining from the palm of her hand.
Icey did not interrupt Aqua’s healing but quietly felt the process of being healed.
Putting aside the completely non-evil intellectual obstacles, one has to admit that Aqua’s hand is quite beautiful, tender, and cool…
Oh no, this warm energy flowing through the wound in the healing process is wonderful!
While maintaining the healing blessing, Aqua also diverted some attention to the Red-Haired Pirate Group.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she couldn’t help but lower her voice and ask the confusion in her heart, “Icey, that pirate with the straw hat, was it intentional for him to be cut off?”
“How did you know?” Icey blinked in surprise.
After the tavern incident a few days ago, this idiot goddess kept saying pirates weren’t a big deal, so why is she so intuitively sensitive now?
“When he appeared just now, I inexplicably felt a very powerful aura, even more terrifying than the demon king defeated by the heroes…” Aqua spoke truthfully about what she thought.
A strong person of this level, if it wasn’t intentional, how could someone like Higuma injure him?
“I see.”
Icey suddenly realized, Higumahing heavily, “Such enviable talent…”
Since he could perceive Shanks’ imposing pressure, it’s natural for Aqua, who mastered the essence of Observation Haki even earlier than him, to know.
“Hmm, as I said, ordinary people can’t compare to goddesses!” Aqua showed a rather smug and teasing smile.
As she spoke, she suddenly realized that her remaining power was not decreasing Higumanificantly.
Looking down at Icey’s exposed chest, she saw the distinct muscles, clean and bloodless, with hardly any trace of blood!
Wait a minute, wait a minute!
If it’s not treated soon, will the wound heal?
For someone like Icey with abnormal defence, isn’t this level of superficial wound equivalent to nothing?!
After pondering for a long time, Aqua finally realized she had been fooled.
“Bastard! You bastard, you didn’t need treatment at all, damn it! You dared to deceive even the noble Aqua! ”
Once back to her senses, Aqua was furious, grabbing Icey’s collar and scolding loudly, completely devoid of the sacred and pure goddess attitude she had bathed in the light just now.
“If I had known you could see that Shanks did it intentionally, I wouldn’t have needed to do this.”
Icey let Aqua shake his body vigorously, spreading his hands helplessly.
Shanks would rather bet his arm than not teach Luffy to grow up. This is his determination, a man’s determination.
What reason did he and Aqua have to intervene?
…
When Luffy’s emotions calmed down a bit, Shanks, under the escort of the members of the Red-Haired Pirate Crew, was hurriedly taken back to the village by the village chief and Makino for unnecessary urgent treatment.
After briefly greeting them to express their condolences, Icey naturally packed up the body of Higuma Sun Bear.
Taking away the tens of thousands of berries and custom-made long knives carried by Higuma, Icey returned to the windmill village with Aqua.
There was no specific place in the village to exchange rewards, and the closest exchange point was the capital of Goya Kingdom.
By land, you must pass through the back of the Colubo Mountain and avoid the chaotic end point of uncertain objects.
By sea, you have to depart from the mouth of the windmill village, sail along the coastline of the Goya Kingdom, and pass through several coastal villages.
Either way, it takes a considerable amount of time, so to make things easier, Icey simply handed over Higuma’s body along with the wanted order to the village’s only merchant who trades by sea, asking them to collect it on their behalf.
Of course, the handling fee was quite touching, a full five points, that is, a whopping four hundred thousand berries!
Among them, it was because this merchant was a member of the Akusis religion (the one who came to pay back the money before, generously waiving the debt), and out of respect for the noble Aqua goddess (pitiful), he voluntarily lowered the price by two points.
With the risk of transporting the wanted criminal himself, as well as the cumbersome procedures such as exchange formalities and personal information registration, Icey did not bargain.
Indeed, the merchant who took a special route was quite efficient.
He obtained the bounty the next afternoon and handed over seven million berries to Icey.
As for the remaining six hundred thousand berries?
Naturally, it was used as compensation for Aqua’s big water use, destroying the village’s only dock…
This amount is far from the ten million berries needed for the second partner to make a wish.
As for the second condition for activating the wish pool, the special Baki bullet, Icey frowned.
Since the public execution of Pirate King Roger, most of Baki’s activities have been in the East Blue.
According to the information obtained from the recovering Shanks, they wander near the Organ Islands.
The port city of Orange Town on the Organ Islands is where Luffy randomly beat up Baki, which can be easily found on the East Blue Sea chart!
