[One Piece] Inferior Star

Chapter 252 The Man Playing the Hero

My feet hurt so much.

Because the high heels that go with the wedding dress don't fit at all, they're worn down to the point that Iji-san feels like he's been abused.Fortunately, he took off his shoes halfway, otherwise, if he forced himself to walk back, he wondered if he would still feel his feet.Before meeting them, Youxiang wanted to walk by herself because she felt embarrassed.

"It hurts."

How did the feet become like this... Katakuri put Youxiang on the sofa at home, and they came back smoothly. They are really tired after going out this time, and they want to take a rest quickly.He took a look at Youxiang's little feet sticking out from under the hem of the white wedding dress, although they were dishonestly swaying back and forth on the sofa, blood was still dripping out.

"Just say it if you think it's inappropriate." Did those people in the bridal shop put it on for you?

"But the shoes are beautiful~" A beautiful wedding dress should be matched with beautiful shoes... I want to wear it even if I feel uncomfortable.Girls are so contradictory...Although Youxiang is usually not like this.Speaking of which, this is the first time she has worn such high shoes with such thin heels.

"..." But it hurts, doesn't it?Is it worth it to hurt yourself for something like that?Katakuri didn't know what to say, he said, "Shall I bandage it for you?"

"No need ~ Fino will heal me!" Just use magic!Youxiang said, "All I need is a donut!"

"Hey..." Yes... Katakuri gave up saying anything, and sat beside Youxiang, "Then leave it to you. You are a bride who can take care of yourself."

"Of course, brides can take care of themselves." Youxiang said, "But sometimes they act like a baby. At that time, it looks like they are not ready... In fact, they just want comfort and care from the person they like. They! That's what Matthew said~"

"That guy named Matthew really knows everything."

"Well, Matthew knows everything."

Youxiang took the tea cup handed over by Katakuri, and she said, "By the way, isn't Mr. Katakuri angry at all? I'm so self-willed, I ran away and came back as if nothing happened, Katakuri Takuri-san doesn't ask anything... is that okay?"

"I don't know." Katakuri leaned back on the sofa. Although he is not a person who can't 'put his back on the ground', he might get tired sometimes.Now he is almost lying on the back of the sofa, looking at the ceiling and saying, "If someone wants to ruin the wedding, I should stop them. That wedding is very important...to Mom, very important, if it doesn't work, Mom You'd get angry, and maybe the whole of Totland would suffer. Mom's such an uncertain person."

"But... this should be Brin's wedding. She is my younger sister, although we don't know each other very well. My mother has too many children, and there are too many brothers and sisters between me and Brin. Just met her a few times, heard her say a few words, heard her name mentioned, and heard that she was good at making chocolate desserts."

"However, she calls me brother. I should protect her. I should protect her to ensure that her wedding goes smoothly. This should be her important day. It should be like this. "

But not right.Bryn, no.You too are forced to marry someone you don't know at all.I have never met the prince of the Vinsmoke family. Although I heard that he is not a particularly outrageous person, how do you feel?Maybe, yes, Mom has her own plans, and you don't really want to get married, but...

However, doesn't this mean that everything you have, even such an important day, is used as a tool for use?

You should, want to resist.You may not be happy about it.Just like Youxiang, you are all forced to marry a man you don’t understand at all, to compromise, to sacrifice, to force yourself to smile... And as an older brother, I can’t help you, I can only help you. Told you, you had to do this to survive, to keep Mommy happy, and to stay out of trouble.

What is the strongest man, what is the masterpiece of the Charlotte family, what is the undefeated superman.

Isn't this just a wimp?

I can't protect anything, I can't do anything, I can only watch everything happen here silently, and watch you bear everything alone - just like it has always been.

Why do I want to be the strongest member of the Charlotte family?Since when did I forget the reason why I wanted to be at the top?

I used to seem to have forgotten them all, and I was numb myself.Until you appeared, Youxiang, until you made me think, let me start to think again.

"That's a wedding that shouldn't be held, Youxiang."

Katakuri paused for a long time before continuing: "Whether it is for Brin or Germa, they are all exploits and lies. Since when did Charlotte become such a family? Using my own blood relatives to create absurd and bloody farce...or is it like this from the beginning, but I never understood it?"

"It's not Katakuri-san's fault..."

"Is it... isn't it my fault?"

"Mr. Katakuri has worked hard!"

"But I didn't do anything, Youxiang. I didn't do anything. I looked at Brin's back, indifferent. I heard her call my brother, but I didn't say anything. I clearly knew what was in her heart. Shaken, but still told her that she had to do that. I'm not a good person, You Xiang, I'm not. I can't protect her."

"........."

"I can't protect you either. I'm sorry. I seem to have said that I would help you. Now it seems that I can't do it." Katakuri said, "So I'm not angry. It's good for you, and for Bu It doesn't matter Lin. Since I didn't do anything, I can't blame you for your self-help behavior. After all, this place is so scary, so... suffocating. Are you satisfied with this answer? Is it fragrant?"

"Well, Mr. Katakuri, I don't mean to blame you..."

"Ah. I know."

I know, you're a kind person, and so is Breen.You all alone carry all the malice, force your smiles, deceive yourself and others.I wish someone would come to your rescue, I wish someone would come in from beyond the horrors of Totland, with a heart never polluted, and free you from this yoke.If such a person existed...

"It's okay to just run away, Yuka. I wouldn't have chased him back then." Katakuri turned his head slightly to look at Yuxiang, and Yuxiang just turned to look at him.

Ahh... these eyes are really unbearable.Stop looking at me like that, Miss Fiancee.forgive me.

"I won't run away. Not only to avoid trouble for Mr. Katakuri... I also promised many people. Everyone believes in me, and I also want to do what I decide." Youxiang said, "So, Katakuri-san can take a break now, okay? Don't worry, I can do it for a while!"

"Just for a while?"

"Just for a while~~ Because... I will run away in the end." Youxiang smiled, and she said, "Someone will come to pick me up. I know they will come. They will break through all obstacles and defeat all obstacles." The bad guy... because that guy promised me so. I trust him."

"Really." Then he'd better keep his promise.Otherwise I'll beat him up.Katakuri looked at Yuka who had a smug smile, and smiled subconsciously, "Then, while you are still my fiancée, can you let me..."

"Ok?"

Ah ah!Lie down... Yuka looked at Katakuri lying directly on her lap, it seemed that people like knee pillows very much... But this is a little embarrassing!She said, "Is it comfortable?"

"It's okay." You are really too young.Incredibly slender wrists, soft and delicate hair, legs too small for a pillow... only those big eyes.Look at me and shake me.Katakuri said, "But... it's very relaxing. Can you let me lie down for a while, Miss Fiancee? Only here, I am Charlotte Katakuri, not some masterpiece. Let me... a little ... take a break?"

Mr. Katakuri...it must have been hard work.Wanted to protect his siblings from BigMom and all the evil, but in the end, there was nothing he could do.Even if you become a superman, even if you become the strongest existence, you still can't support even a small shelter, and no one can protect it, you can only make them compromise.

It's very sad, no one can tell, no one can solve it... I can only play the strongest existence day after day, the 'hero' who will never fall.

"Thank you, Mr. Katakuri." Youxiang said softly, "You have been working hard all this time. You can rest now. You don't have to pretend to be anyone at home."

"Ah. I love hearing your voice." Katakuri closed his eyes, and he said, "Talk to me about something that doesn't matter. Tell me about making donuts, or whatever you like. You and Everything here is different, Youxiang. You are different...so...tell me now."

"Then let me tell you about the Spiral Blizzard Red Velvet Magma Chocolate Nut Crumble Parfait!"

"Haha... what is that... are you chanting a spell? Hahaha..."

"Don't laugh! I'm serious! There's a store in Dressrosa...don't laugh, Mr. Katakuri!!"

"Sorry. I won't laugh. But you say that name again, I didn't remember it."

"Spiral Blizzard Red Velvet Magma Chocolate Nut Crumble Parfait."

"Hahahahahaha..."

"I told you not to laugh! It's not funny!!"

"How did you say it so smoothly without stopping or taking a breath?"

"It's just a common saying!"

"I see. Say it again?"

"I don't want it, you hate it!!"
