The next morning.
Andy slowly woke up in the soft, comfortable bedding. He instinctively took a deep breath, savoring the unique, rich scent in the bedding.
Hmm, unlike the scent of Princess Tia, today's fragrance carried a different, alluring, cool charm.
He slowly opened his eyes, only to see sunlight gently pouring in through the white gauze curtains, enveloping the entire room in a soft glow.
Carifa was quietly sitting at the desk by the window. On the desk, besides a few books and a pen, there was also an anti-eavesdropping Den Den Mushi.
She wore a light, loose, silk, butt-length home dress. Her dazzling golden hair cascaded naturally over her shoulders like a waterfall.
The light filtering through the curtains was like a thin veil gently draped over her dress, perfectly outlining her captivating figure.
At this moment, Carifa held a thick book in her hands, her expression focused.
The entire room was quiet, with only the faint rustle of pages turning occasionally, echoing softly in the air.
Andy turned on his side, propping his head with his hand, quietly admiring the beautiful scene before him, his eyes filled with intoxication.
A few minutes later, Carifa's slender fingers gently closed the book, placing it elegantly on the desk.
Then she stood up and slowly turned to look at Andy.
She first raised her hand and gently pushed up the glasses on her nose, a gesture that carried a cool, intellectual beauty.
Immediately after, she crossed her arms and said in a cool voice, "It's eight o'clock in the morning. At our current speed, we will leave the Calm Belt and return to the Grand Line in about four hours."
"So beautiful~" Andy seemed completely immersed in his own world, as if he hadn't heard Carifa's words, praising her from the bottom of his heart.
"Andy, please stop your sexual harassment first.
An hour ago, Miss Baccarat called. Because of yesterday's events, your bounty has increased to 2.86 billion Berries!
Now everyone on the sea knows about you killing a Celestial Dragon.
The news about this matter is as follows:
Charlamako Saint was originally on a friendly visit to Lingyu Kingdom, but you suddenly appeared in Lingyu Kingdom and killed Charlamako Saint.
However, the newspapers did not report on you killing Kiringom Saint.
Your actions in Lingyu Kingdom caused great casualties to this country, and they attributed Charlamako Saint's shelling and killing of civilians to you.
The King of Lingyu Kingdom personally appeared to verify this matter, and he angrily denounced your tyrannical actions in a reporter's interview.
Therefore, people all over the world are now very angry, but at the same time, they are also very afraid of you.
Andy, congratulations, your title has changed from the West Sea's Ultimate Evil to God Slayer." Carifa's tone was cool as she calmly finished relaying the content of Baccarat's call today.
"God Slayer?" Andy raised an eyebrow, a slight disdainful smile on his face. "This title is really unpleasant. It's not as domineering as West Sea's Ultimate Evil!
And this new bounty amount, I'm really not satisfied. Compared to the Four Emperors, it's not just a little bit off!
Don't bother with all this nonsense about public opinion.
These little tricks of the World Government are all within my expectations, nothing big."
Andy's expression was indifferent. Public opinion and other people's views on the sea had nothing to do with him; these were not worth putting in his heart at all.
It just annoyed him a bit to think that he had killed four Celestial Dragons, including a God's Knights member, but his bounty was only 2.86 billion Berries.
"Mr. Tesoro said he hopes you will reach the New World as soon as possible, and he urgently wants to talk to you in person," Carifa continued.
"I know. What about the World Government? Besides continuing to smear me in public opinion, what else have they done?" Andy said, then got up and sat on the edge of the bed.
"Lucci and the others only found out that the Gorosei ordered the Marine to continue to be responsible for your matter; there are no other actions for now," Carifa continued to respond.
"Alright, I got it. Come here for a hug, then we'll go have breakfast." Andy said, then opened his arms.
"Andy, this is sexual harassment!" Carifa's expression was cold, but she still couldn't help but walk over.
In the dining room.
Bonney sat at the dining table, her small mouth constantly salivating.
"When will Brother Andy and Sister Carifa wake up...?" Looking at the delicious food in front of her, Bonney felt like she couldn't hold back anymore.
"It should be soon." Alpha said with a smile, "They've already woken up, and they'll be here soon..."
At this point, some subtle sounds emerged, causing Alpha to stop abruptly. She seemed to have spoken a bit too soon...
Tia, on the other hand, was blushing deeply.
"Huh? Sister Alpha, Sister Tia, did you hear anything?" Bonney suddenly asked.
"No." Princess Tia immediately said, "What sound? Bonney, we don't have to wait for them today, let's eat first."
"Really? That's great!" Bonney was very happy, then instantly stuffed a piece of fragrant Sea Kings meat into her mouth.
————
More than three hours later.
The yacht surged out of the Calm Belt. Andy and the others sat on the top-level sofa, drinking juice and enjoying the long-lost sea breeze.
Just after enjoying the good weather for a while, the sky suddenly became overcast.
A few minutes later, just as everyone thought a storm was coming, the temperature suddenly dropped, and goose-feather snow began to fall.
"Achoo~" Bonney immediately sneezed from the cold.
"Bonney, hurry back to the cabin and put on warm clothes." Alpha immediately told Bonney.
"Oh~" Bonney responded, then ran into the cabin.
"It's so cold, Lord Andy, this weather... how could it suddenly be so cold." Princess Tia snuggled into Andy's arms, her gentle voice trembling slightly.
"Looking at the weather... could it be that we're heading to a winter island?" Andy said with a frown, holding Tia.
More than an hour later, they indeed saw a snow-white island in the distance.
"It really is a frozen island..." Alpha looked at the island appearing in front of them with some surprise.
Carifa took out the Eternal Pose for the next island from Saint O'lka Kingdom. She checked it, confirming that the direction was correct.
Then she turned to Andy: "The direction is correct. It should just be a winter island we're passing by on our route. After all, we came out of the Calm Belt, so we're no longer on the original route."
Andy got up from the sofa, first draped a cotton coat over Princess Tia, then calmly said, "Since that's the case, let's land on this island."
He sensed something interesting with his Observation Haki; this winter island was actually territory controlled by the Revolutionary Army.
