It had been almost a week since the encounter with the Whitebeard Pirates.
At Vivian's request, Domino was transferred from Impel Down to G1 Headquarters, officially changing her position from Chief Warden to Lieutenant Commander, becoming Vivian's direct subordinate.
As for Aili, who was now holding Vivian's arm…
Of course, she was brought back from the Whitebeard Pirates a week ago after Vivian had a nearly ten-hour party on the Moby Dick.
The scene from that time immediately came to mind…
…
"Vivian, are you leaving?"
Seeing Vivian in uniform, standing at the cabin door, Aili, wearing a long dress, hurried out and grabbed his wrist, her beautiful blue eyes filled with panic.
Seeing her tears about to fall, Vivian quickly embraced her and gently said, "I won't leave you, Aili. We're already engaged, aren't we?"
Aili had risked her life to save him during the Summit War, braving the cannon fire. Later, she chose to stand against the pirate crew she had grown up with for Vivian.
And then, because of a promise he made, she waited for him for two years, constantly thinking of him, even begging her father and Whitebeard to find him…
Originally, Vivian had thought that if Aili changed her mind after these two years, it would be fine. After all, he already had Domino. Although the pirate world wasn't like the monogamous society he knew, it still felt somewhat unfair to Domino, especially given her extremely possessive nature. He couldn't imagine how Domino would react if she found out about Aili.
But who would have thought Aili would be so deeply in love with him…
And does Vivian truly love Aili?
That doesn't matter.
At the very least, he shouldn't let down a girl like her!
"Really?" Aili asked, looking up.
"Really." Vivian smiled and patted her head.
The next second.
"Where do you plan to take my daughter?"
Bang!
With a loud thud, Hodman, who had been eavesdropping around the corner, kicked Vivian into the wall.
"Dad!"
Aili was terrified and quickly shielded Vivian, shouting at Hodman, "If you want to hurt him, you'll have to kill me first!"
Hodman: 〣(oΔo)〣
"What… what did you say?"
"I said, if you want to kill him, you'll have to kill me first!"
Aili repeated firmly.
Hodman stared at them for a moment, then sighed deeply. Under Aili's watchful eyes, he approached and placed a hand on Vivian's shoulder, saying, "Thunder Swordsman, remember to treat my daughter well and don't let her suffer."
With that, Hodman, who had previously shown affection, now looked at Aili coldly and spoke in an icy tone. "From now on, you're no longer a member of the First Division, nor a part of the Whitebeard Pirates. I hope you understand."
"Dad…" Aili's heart tightened. She watched as Hodman resolutely turned away without another glance at her, then looked at Vivian.
After a moment, she wiped away her tears, turned around, and rested her head on Vivian's shoulder.
…
It was that simple.
Perhaps fearing that Aili might be in danger due to her former status as a Whitebeard Pirate, none of the crew came out to see her off. They just hid in the cabin, watching her leave through the window, secretly wiping their tears.
As a result, Vivian brought back a "loving wife" who took care of everything for him, from fetching water for his morning wash to preparing his bath at night, and even giving him massages before bed. She did everything except cook, and her care was impeccable.
However, this blissful life lasted less than seven days. Once Domino arrived at the G1 branch due to his recommendation letter, the chaos began. {WOW} {searching for popcorn.}
Just like now…
"Vivian, who is this woman?" Seeing Aili holding Vivian's arm and looking at her curiously, Domino's anger surged. She instinctively drew her iron whip from her waist, ready to lash out, but Vivian quickly stopped her.
"This is G1 Headquarters. Using violence here will get you detained!"
"Calm down, let me explain." Vivian stepped forward, holding Domino's hand and smiling.
Domino glanced at Vivian's handsome face, blushing and dazed for a few seconds before pushing him away and continuing to question, "You still haven't told me who this woman is!"
"This woman…"
Vivian was thinking of how to phrase it when suddenly, options appeared in his mind:
[Option 1: Tell Domino directly that Aili is your fiancée. (Reward: Random artifact from another dimension)]
[Option 2: Tell Domino that Aili is just your sister. (Reward: Random combat skill from another dimension)]
[Option 3: Hold both their hands and say, "From today, you are both my wives." (Reward: Random special skill)]
{Oh, wow}
Vivian: ???
Wow, not a single option avoids danger, huh?
If he chose the first option, it would undoubtedly drive Domino mad, causing a scene of chaos.
If he chose the second option…
Aili would probably cry and run back to the Whitebeard Pirates, right?
They would definitely seek justice for Aili, and Whitebeard might not remember the favor of saving his life over his family's grievances.
As for the third option…
"I feel like if I really did this, I'd be a complete scumbag…"
But then again, he already had two women, so he was already a scumbag, wasn't he?
So, with no shame left, and under the astonished gazes of Gion and Jinbe, Vivian held both women's hands and said with deep affection, "From today, you are both my wives."
As soon as he finished speaking…
Bang!
Slap!
A punch and a slap landed directly on Vivian's fair, handsome face.
At the same time:
[You chose Option 3]
[New mission unlocked: Two-Timing]
[Mission: Successfully win back the hearts of both women within 24 hours]
