After the fight, Momousagi realized she was no match for Clover. At least she didn't think of escaping while still on the boat. Now she could relax a little and no longer had to be tied up by Clover.
"What do you think? Come be a pirate with me," Clover said to Momousagi.
"Impossible."
"Pirates aren't all bad people. As you can see, I killed the Celestial Dragons, robbed the auction house, and kidnapped a beautiful woman on the ship without doing anything else." Clover was trying to persuade Momousagi to join him.
"...Killing a Celestial Dragon is already a heinous crime and extremely vicious..." Momousagi rolled her eyes at Clover.
"The Celestial Dragons aren't good people. They are no less vicious than pirates. I won't force you. You can think about it again." Clover stood up after saying that, took out the treasure tree, and began repairing his ship.
Momousagi put away her sword and walked to the bow of the boat, enjoying the sea breeze: "It's better to have your hands and feet not restrained... I'll go take a bath." With that, Momousagi went to Clover's room on the second floor to take a bath, as Clover also wanted to repair the door to her room.
Using Dragon's Roar to chop wood was very fast, and the floor was repaired quickly, followed by the door and railings. After the repairs were completed, Momousagi also finished her bath.
Clover took out a white cloth and began to draw his own pirate flag. After all, he had been at sea for so long. It was unreasonable to have the name of a pirate without a pirate flag. Momousagi also showed interest.
After capturing so many pirates, she still didn't know their mentality when they first went to sea and how they drew their pirate flag.
After some work, Clover finally drew a picture of a white mask crossed with a pirate flag with two swords.
"It's very simple, it doesn't look like some scary pirate," Momousagi said after looking at it.
"I'm not a scary pirate to begin with," Clover said, raising his pirate flag with satisfaction.
(At this time: Matea Island, Sakazuki and more than 500 people: "Are you talking about your mother?")
After hoisting the pirate flag, the ship finally had the name of a pirate ship, and the real name of this ship was: Hundred Beasts Dragon King. However, Clover changed it to: The Draconian Nemesis.
Although Clover was very satisfied with it!
"What is your goal in going to sea?" Momousagi asked Clover.
"The goal? Of course, it is to find the One Piece."
"... What's so good about the title One Piece? It makes you pirates flock to it."
"This title...
I don't know, but what is attractive to men is often mysterious things.
People probably yearn for the great secret treasure.
I also want to know what it is."
After years in the previous life, not seeing what the Great Secret Treasure was, Clover thought he would never see it in this life.
He never expected that fate would allow him to see it with his own eyes!
"...So I really haven't seen the ending of One Piece in my entire life," Clover said, raising an eyebrow.
"What did you say?" Momousagi listened to Clover mutter to himself but didn't hear what he was saying at all.
"It's nothing," Clover shook his head. "You're not thinking about running away now, are you?"
"I never thought about running away, I thought about catching you back," Momousagi said angrily.
"That's harder than running away," Clover laughed after hearing this.
"Where are you going now?" Momousagi looked not far away. Clover's ship had already passed an island and asked him. Logically speaking, shouldn't he store the Log Pose on the next island? Why leave directly?
"Go to the next island, a deserted island called Kehanre Island."
"Have you been there?"
"No."
"That island is full of vicious pirates from the Grand Line.
They are entrenched around the island, occupying all the places near the ocean, and controlling all the fresh water resources on the island.
The people on the island have also been transformed by them.
They became slaves and worked on the island in exchange for a small amount of water,"
Momousagi said to Clover.
"Since you Marines all know it, why doesn't anyone deal with it?" Clover asked in confusion after hearing this.
"...The pirates on the island are affiliated with the Shichibukai, Doflamingo, and they have legal rights to plunder, so..." At this point, Momousagi also looked embarrassed, and she really couldn't accept the existence of the Shichibukai, with their so-called legal plunder rights.
"Ever since it was given the title Shichibukai, the World Government is no longer worthy of the people's trust. I really don't know how such a government can continue to exist," Clover rolled his eyes and said.
Momousagi also glanced at Clover after hearing this and felt something indescribable in her heart.
Even a pirate knew that the World Government's approach was wrong, so why do they still do this? To put it nicely, it was to contain the Four Emperors.
But if the Marines really go to war with the Four Emperors, how can the Shichibukai really help?
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Clover said, looking at Momousagi in a daze.
"Nothing," Momousagi shook her head.
"If I want to kill them, you won't object, right?"
"...As a Marine Vice Admiral, I oppose it, but as a general public, I support you," Momousagi thought for a while and said.
"Then from now on you are no longer a Marine Vice Admiral," Clover said while lying on the bow of the ship. Momousagi's cloak had already been thrown on the shore when she jumped into the sea to chase Clover.
"I'll run after I get off the boat. If I can't beat you, can't I outrun you?" Momousagi said with a cold snort, and then ran back to the room.
"Small, I'll take you down before the boat," Clover thought as he watched Momousagi's back running into the room.
[Momousagi's favorability: 40%]
In the past two days of getting along, Momousagi may not have noticed it, but she has gradually begun to change her opinion of Clover, and her favorability is rising little by little, especially with the many physical contacts and interactions. It will give her some heartbeats that are hard to find.
However, Clover still feels that this progress is too slow and needs to be further improved.
The cliché of a hero saving a beauty is not necessary.
There are not many people in this world who can defeat Momousagi.
What impresses Momousagi most is a just act, such as killing the Celestial Dragons and destroying the vicious pirate group.
In order to help the people, now he can only play a very decent "pirate" image on the ship.
If he wants to really win over Momousagi, he'll have to go to Kehanre Island and defeat Doflamingo's group.
At the same time, as expected, the pursuit team led by Akainu rushed to the island that Clover passed by before, and launched a large-scale search of the island. News of Vice Admiral Momousagi's disappearance also spread to Marine headquarters.
