Chapter 200: Perona

Tonight, I will serve Lin Yu...

Perona, whose hands were captured, heard Anna and Shakky's words, looked stunned, then twisted her body and struggled frantically.

"No, let me go!"

"That bastard Lin Yu killed Lord Moria; I will absolutely not submit to him!"

"Let go..."

Thud!

Facing Perona's struggle, Shakky knocked her unconscious with a punch, then she and Anna carried her into the bathroom.

After helping Perona wash, they still had to clean and tidy the Young Master's room, so they dared not delay here.

Seeing Perona being taken away by Anna and Shakky, Kaya stepped out the door carrying her medical kit.

"Rumor has it that the king of the Flower Kingdom hundreds of years ago was called Emperor, wielding immense power and a vast harem."

"Big Brother Lin Yu really wants to become the legendary Emperor of the Flower Kingdom."

Kaya muttered these words to herself, returned to her room, and resumed learning Medical Arts knowledge.

Big Brother Lin Yu found many books on surgical medicine from that Hogback; I must hurry up and study.

Anyway, regardless of whether Big Brother Lin Yu truly wants to be Emperor, for Kaya, being able to stay by his side and have medical books to read is enough.

Night fell once again.

When Lin Yu returned to his room on the topmost floor of the castle, he saw Perona, freshly washed and dressed, wearing a crown and black-and-white tights.

"Heh, Anna and Shakky are truly proactive."

Seeing Perona's figure, Lin Yu grinned.

These past few days he had been thinking about how to remodel the Thriller Bark and arranging future plans, so he almost forgot Perona.

"D-don't come over!!"

Perona, lying on the bed, was startled when she saw Lin Yu appear.

Seeing Perona's petite and slender body, Lin Yu smiled, walked to the table in the room, and poured himself a glass of red wine.

Sitting on the table, drinking red wine, Lin Yu carefully examined the Gothic-style girl before him.

If his memory served correctly, Perona should already be in her twenties by now, actually a bit older than Rebecca.

But because she was pampered since childhood and had a petite figure, her girlishness was very strong, making her look even younger than Nami and Nojiko.

Feeling uncomfortable under Lin Yu's gaze, Perona stammered:

"Y-you killed Lord Moria; I-I will absolutely not submit to you."

Perona was adopted by Moria since childhood and respected him greatly.

Boarding Lin Yu's ship to save her life was something Perona could accept.

But becoming his woman or anything like that—don't even think about it.

Of course, she was only stating her attitude here; if Lin Yu truly wanted to do something to her, she couldn't resist.

As someone who had followed Moria since childhood, although well-protected by him, she was also very clear about the rules of this great sea: the strong devour the weak, and strength is supreme.

Hearing Perona's words, Lin Yu smiled, not surprised at all.

Although Moria was the shame of the Seven Warlords, he was very good to his few subordinates; Perona having this reaction was quite normal.

However, he has his own methods to make Perona obedient.

Then, Lin Yu took a small teddy bear wearing a blue-and-white striped hat out of the void.

"Kumacy!!!"

Seeing the teddy bear Lin Yu brought out, Perona immediately cried out in surprise.

Because she had lived on Thriller Bark since childhood, Perona had no playmates since she was young; only Kumacy had always accompanied her.

So Kumacy was, besides Moria, the toy she cared about most...

So much so that when she heard a few days ago that the corpses on Thriller Bark had been thrown away, she was sad for a long time.

Seeing Perona's surprised expression, Lin Yu said nothing; he simply placed the Kumacy-shaped teddy bear not far from the bedside, with the bear's eyes facing Perona.

"Give it to me!"

"Give Kumacy to me!"

Perona wanted to hug the teddy bear, but because her right hand was handcuffed to the bedpost with Sea-Prism Stone, her range of motion was limited, so she could only anxiously say to Lin Yu.

Hearing Perona's words, Lin Yu smiled, continued to take a two-meter-tall Kumacy teddy bear out of the void, and placed it on the other side.

These two bears were made by Makino and Conis at Lin Yu's request, one large and one small.

Seeing the new Kumacy Lin Yu brought out, Perona's eyes sparkled.

Because the newly brought-out teddy bear was exactly identical to her old Kumacy.

"Lord Lin Yu, please give Kumacy to me!!"

Perona looked pitifully at Lin Yu, trying to act cute and coax him into giving her Kumacy.

"That won't do," Lin Yu continued drinking red wine, shaking his head slightly.

Seeing Lin Yu refuse her, Perona quickly got out of bed and tried to stretch her thin leg to hook the large Kumacy.

However, no matter how hard she tried, with her right hand handcuffed to the bedpost, she could not hook the large Kumacy teddy bear with her foot; there was still a considerable distance.

"Lord Lin Yu!"

"Please give Kumacy to me..."

Having failed her attempt, Perona looked at Lin Yu pitifully once again.

Lin Yu smiled slightly, stood up, and walked over to the large Kumacy teddy bear.

Then, in Perona's hopeful gaze, he shifted the large Kumacy teddy bear slightly.

Enough for Perona to reach Kumacy with her stretched-out foot, but she could only just touch it.

Perona: "......"

Seeing Lin Yu's movement, Perona froze in place, her gaze upon him as if he were a devil playing with hearts.

You moved such a tiny bit; you might as well not have moved at all!

This feeling of being able to touch it yet unable to obtain it only made Perona feel even worse!!!

Moreover, what made Perona even angrier was.

This bastard Lin Yu was now holding that small Tyrant Kuma plush bear, kneading and squeezing it in his hand, deliberately showing it off before her eyes.

It was simply too infuriating!!

Seeing Perona staring straight at the plush bear in his hand, Lin Yu knew the nest was well dug and the fish was about to take the bait.

Immediately, he looked at Perona and smiled:

"Perona, if you are willing to follow me, I will help you remake a new Tyrant Kuma plush bear in a while."

"One that can move, run, and possesses a soul."

Upon hearing this, Perona opened her mouth in astonishment: "A Tyrant Kuma that can move, run, and possesses a soul?"

"Yes!" Lin Yu smiled affirmatively.

For Lin Yu, who had obtained the Shadow-Shadow Fruit, remaking a Tyrant Kuma was a trivial matter.

To increase his persuasiveness, he even took out Moria's Shadow-Shadow Fruit.

"Is this my lord Moria's Shadow-Shadow Fruit?"
