Chapter 67

"Sasuke-sama wants to that kind of thing with me?" Shirahoshi seems to be whispering to herself.

In her mind are fantasies of Sasuke embracing her tightly. Holding onto her body with affection. From that grows a seed in her heart. A seed of yearning and desire.

The next day Shirahoshi is practicing the teachings of Sasuke. When Sasuke discovers that she seems to be lost in thought. "Shirahoshi?" Calling her name again he wakes up from her daydreaming.

Waking up from her daze she quickly apologizes to Sasuke, "I'm sorry Sasuke-sama. I didn't mean to lose focus."

"No. I must had been to hard on you," Sasuke said. Reflecting it back on himself. "I want to ask you something Shirahoshi."

With a sense of unrest Shirahoshi looks with silence. Awaiting for Sasuke's question.

"Will you marry me?"

'Is this a dream? Am I still dreaming?' Shirahoshi asked herself. Her heartbeat quickens as she takes note of the charming smile of the man in front of her.

"Yes! Of course I'm willing!" Shirahoshi jumped into bear-hugging Sasuke. Closing her eyes feeling the warmth of his body.

"I know how much this island means to you," Sasuke said to her calmly. "I don't want something so precious to you be taken away. I want this home to stay with you. A place you can always return to."

"Sasuke-sama!! I didn't know you care so much about me," teardrops trickle down from her cheeks. Sasuke smiled seeing her artless innocence.

"I'm planning on talking to your father. To decide our marriage," Sasuke told her. "I'll do what it takes to bring you out into the world. You know I would never force anything on you. That's why I want to make sure you want the same thing."

"Sasuke-sama I love you sooooo much," Shirahoshi starts to plant kisses all over his face. She felt her whole spirit being loved and adored by him throughout. "I'm sooo happy now. Thank you for being in my life."

"You silly girl," Sasuke puts his head on her head. Smiling happily seeing her free spirited joy. "I'm happy too seeing you happy my love."

The very next day Sasuke finds himself in a large blue hall. Sitting in front of him was King Neptune, his height towers high over him.

"You wanted a meeting with me," Neptune spoke in a booming voice, "what can I grant you?"

Since Sasuke came to this island he grew quite close with everybody. His reputation for what he has done for the islanders already spread to Neptune's ears.

"King Neptune, I want your permission and blessing to marry your daughter," Sasuke answered in a solemn voice.

The king was silent for a second. Remaining his calmness as he made a decision.

He's not against Sasuke marrying his daughter at all. In fact, he was ever welcome of her daughter being married to this mysterious hero. Of course he also heard from Shirahoshi just how wonderfully happy she is by his side.

"I will give you my blessing. But only under one condition: defeat the three of my sons in a battle," King Neptune said solemnly.

2 Weeks Later…

In front of all the people from the island Sasuke stood ready for battle. Standing in front of him were Shirahoshi's three brothers.

Seeing the tensing energy of battle made Shirahoshi worry for him. Though she has an utmost trust in the ability of Sasuke.

Extending his hand out he motions for them to come to him. In a harmonious fighting spirit the three spirit attacked him with a weapon at the same time.

Hitting to one point where Sasuke is standing. Instead of dodging the attack Sasuke merely stand there waiting for them.

"Why is he not moving?"

"Is Sasuke-san perhaps too afraid to dodge?"

In the next second they see the weapon being inflected on Sasuke's body. Though it was not able to create even a single scratch on his skin.

"OMG!! He didn't seemed to be affected by their attacks at all.

"His body is indestructible!! Wow Sasuke-san is so cool!!"

"Is that all you guy's got?" Sasuke asked calmly with no disturbance in emotion. Still standing there letting them have the initiative.

The three brothers continue tormenting Sasuke's body with the long blades and other sharp weapons. Without budging at all from that state he simply closed his eyes in peace.

Finally the brothers stop their attacks feeling the fatigue beginning to set on their body. With his eyes still closed Sasuke finally opened his eyes, "Is it my turn now?"

There came this powerful energy that shot throughout the arena. With this utmost silence. Before everybody's eyes the people saw the three brothers collapsing to the floor.

"What just happened? One second they were standing now they are on the floor."

"How did Sasuke-kun defeat the princes?"

'What a powerful Haoshoku!' King Neptune thought to himself. Seeing with awe that his three sons so easily collapsed to the floor. He doubt even if he was in their place he could had block that power.

"How is it King Neptune?" Sasuke asked.

"You won. I grant you my blessing," King Neptune said solemly.

One month has gone by, today is a special day as everyone on the island gather for the wedding. It's a day that everybody's been waiting for.

The sky has already been set. As darkness falls on all that is below the ocean.

But candles are placed from every household. Lighting up every street and every corner of the island.

In the middle of the island's center were rows of tables. There was something cheerful about this all. In the background the orchestra starts to play Canon in D.

"Did you heard Sasuke-sama created something called 'Clones'? They cooked all the delicious food for tonight."

"Sasuke-sama is extraordinary and mysterious. I heard he even composed this beautiful music."

"Look it's Sasuke-kun!!" Everybody that's seated looks above them.

They see a figure slowly flying down from the sky. The man was dressed in a white suit with a black tie. His every movement is captured into their hearts.

Lightly, Sasuke put his foot on the red carpet. Standing before everyone in the ceremony.

"I'm sorry I'm late my love," Sasuke said smiling at his beautiful bride.

"It's okay Sasuke-kun," Shirahoshi said smiling joyfully.

The wedding procedure continued. It was the moment of vows and oaths.
