Accidentally in the Crew?

After captain was knocked down, they got back to their ship. Pinku flourished her arm once more to finish the rest of the Marine off.

FALL OF CHERRY BLOSSOM!

The hundreds of petals fell down above from the ship. The petals were overwhelming, the ships got wrecked into pieces. They thought this was over, but there were more ship far ahead. They sighed with exhaustion.

"This is too much work.."

From the Marine side of view, one of the soldiers saw what has been going through the whole time, the soldier reported the information.

"Captain, Hairo, there are four pirates, in the ship and they managed to kill all the Marines."

Since Shindou was technically in the ship, the soldier assumed he was pirate too. Hairo asked with curiosity.

"Four? I heard the 'Pink Rabbit' pirates had only three members."

"It seems like they recruited one more member. The ships faced the other way leaving to their head quarters without giving them another fight to report the situation.

"Man, I thought we had to had to whole bunch, but I guess they are gone."

They sighed as they faced Shindou face to face.

"Yay! You are officially our crew mate now."

He suddenly gave them a puzzled look.

"Don't be shy, I know you'll love being in our member. It's fun!"

Shindou still hesitated and refused with the straight face.

"How many times do I have to tell you, I won't join your team nor the pirate."

Then Mihei purposely thought aloud.

"Hmmm, I wonder how many days til if I were to swim from here to other island? Next closest village from here would be Nakuri Island, which will take around, ummm, umm, twenty days?"

"What twenty days?!"

"Honestly, I don't care about you being part of our crew, but you'll be dead if you without the ship or boat."

"Hey! C'mom, he needs to join!"

The captain whined.

"Fine, fine, I'll think about it, but time limit is only til we reach next island, okay?"

As soon as she heard the words, Pinku raised her both hands showing her excitements.

(I think this the end of the Arc, so, I will make another story (next arc) to continue the story.
