[One Piece] The Hawk-Eyed Beauty and the Red-Haired Bully

Mihawk was leaving school when someone cornered him in a grove. He hadn't brought his sword, but it wasn't a big deal, since he was pretty good at hand-to-hand combat too.

Mihawk quietly clenched his fist and gathered his strength.

The person who had cornered him said, "Hey, handsome, I finished the assignment the teacher gave us today. Could you check it over and see if I made any mistakes?"

Mihawk: "..."

Thanks. He knew he was good-looking, but he didn't want to be called handsome.

First, he needed to correct their choice of words.

Mihawk was leaving school again, and the red-haired girl who had cornered him last time had cornered him again.

Mihawk: "..."

Come on, couldn't this wait until school? He was busy.

Unlike the other children on the island, Mihawk had to study swordsmanship after school.

He'd brought his sword today. If the red-haired girl asked another stupid question like last time, he was walking away.

But this time, the red-haired girl had come to say goodbye.

"Mr. Dracule, I'm going home."

The grove was beside the harbor, and the harbor was beside the sea. The girl's home lay far away, across the sea.

The young Hawkeye gripped the sword in his hand.

Hong had passed her graduation exams without a hitch.

At last, she could return to the Moby Dick! So happy~~

Hong was picking out a souvenir for her dear father, Whitebeard. Just as she was struggling to decide what to buy, a pirate crew appeared.

The pirates invaded the island, but their ship and crew were both cut down.

The young Hawkeye sliced through the massive sailing ship with one blow.

Hong: "I need help! Mr. Dracule, come help me pick one!"

They were classmates, after all. It wasn't too much to ask him for one last favor, was it?

Mihawk: "Y-Your name is... what?"

Hong: ?

Hadn't we been classmates for three years already?
