One Piece and Navy King

55 - Accept or not



Shampoo Islands, Area 41, where the Straw Hats landed.

"Why aren't Sanji and Usopp here?" The two people who were so high-spirited just now didn't come with them, which made Luffy a little puzzled.

"Usopp and Franky are going to fill up Coca-Cola energy in case of emergencies. Sanji was entrusted by Nami to stay on the ship to look after the treasure. They are all temporarily unavailable." Chopper immediately explained the whereabouts of several people. To prevent Luffy from worrying, Franky and his party were originally responsible for watching the ship, but unexpectedly, it was Usopp and Sanji who stayed behind in the end.

"Originally, I wanted to stay on the ship, otherwise Usopp wouldn't have stayed." The group glanced at Perot and sighed helplessly. Today was destined to be a depressing day.

"Speaking of Zoro, it's true that he has to go for a walk alone. It's really uneasy." Thinking of Zoro always acting alone and getting into trouble and making mistakes, everyone couldn't help but worry. This kid would definitely not be able to find his way home. .

"Don't worry, with his ability he won't be killed easily. As long as he is alive, I can use the Heart Net to get him back. His fire of life shines like a beacon in the dark night. He can be easily killed. found."

It may not be easy to find an ordinary person in the vast sea of ​​people, but it is still easy to find a powerful person. Their physical strength makes them as different as torches and fireflies compared to the people around them.

"That's good. You must keep an eye on Sauron when the time comes, so that he doesn't find his way home." Knowing that the group's heart network has such a special ability, everyone is relieved about Sauron's affairs. few.

"Shall we go to the amusement park now? This doesn't seem like the route there."

The amusement park was clearly within sight just now, but it became further and further away as he walked. This completely deviated from Luffy's original intention of going to the amusement park.

"Before going to the amusement park, we have to go to Area 13 first. It is relatively inland and the most lawless area. It's just that it's far away. Let's buy some bubble cars first. Let’s talk about it instead.”

Xiaoba made a complete action plan from the moment he landed and arranged the trip in an orderly manner.

"Okay then, let's go to the amusement park after we find Uncle Coating."

Soon, everyone found a shop selling bubble cars. The place was filled with processed bubbles, and many people bought bubble cars here.

"Great, is this a bubble car? It's so fun." Adding pedal power to the special bubbles turns it into a rickshaw that can float in mid-air. It is indeed a unique design.

"For several guests, renting a bubble car costs 500 berries a day. Buying one only costs 10,000 berries. Why not buy it? It will be more cost-effective."

The merchant who rented out the bubble cars felt that Luffy and others looked easy to deceive, so he tried his best to persuade the scammers to buy more cars. The merchant's rhetoric failed to deceive Hachi, but he did not directly expose his businessman nature. He only stopped Luffy's desire to buy and insisted on renting four bubble cars. The shop owner also realized the fact that Xiaoba was a local and no longer humiliated himself.

"Okay, let's go"

After riding on the bubble car, everyone divided into two teams. Nami, Su Wei and other ladies rode the bubble car to the shopping street, and the remaining people continued towards area 13 where the coating craftsmen were.

"How could this happen? This is the third time we have been attacked."

In less than half an hour, everyone was attacked by bounty hunters three times.

"There is nothing we can do about it. Now you are all famous high-bounty criminals, and it is inevitable that someone will target you. Moreover, this is the Chambord Islands, close to the Navy Headquarters, and all the pirates on the seven routes in the first half of the Grand Line are... You have to complete the coating here before you can go to the new world, so many famous bounty hunters are waiting here for pirates like you who want to make a fortune."

The situation was far worse than expected. They had encountered so many raids in a short period of time. Fortunately, everyone was safe. I just didn't know what was going on with Nami and the others who were heading to the shopping street.

"Don't worry, the shopping street Nami and the others are going to is an area controlled by the navy. Both pirates and ordinary civilians must abide by the rules there. Fighting is not allowed. There is no need to worry about their safety." Xiaohachi said about this place. The situation was very familiar, which dispelled everyone's worries about Nami and the others.

"Can I take off this thing first, otherwise I won't be able to fight properly." The zombie bear coat was too much in the way, seriously affecting the team's combat effectiveness.

"Don't talk, it's not cute at all. Without you, Luffy, they can still protect our safety, and they are not without fighting ability. As long as I use my abilities, no one can help but kneel in front of me."

Perona's reaction was far greater than expected. This guy really regarded him as Kumasi. Thinking of the soliloquies he accidentally heard in the sea of ​​​​consciousness, the group felt a little more pity for Perona. , this little girl who had an unhappy childhood may need more care, so just pretend to be a rag doll. Anyway, there are only two days in a month, not to mention that Perona is only a thirteen-year-old girl, there is nothing to worry about, just treat it as a rag doll. It would be nice to have a willful younger sister. With this in mind, the group stretched out their hands and rubbed Perona's little head. Unexpectedly, Xiaopei, who had been arrogant just now, actually calmed down. Her big round eyes revealed indescribable emotions. If it weren't for the surrounding companions, He really wanted to continue the booing, and Perona also blushed at the hooting.

"Everyone, speed up and get rid of these bounty hunters."

Luffy pedaled with all his strength, and the entire bubble car surged forward like a chicken blood. Not to be outdone, Hachi also pedaled the bubble car like an arrow off the string. The three bubble cars chased each other. , actually arrived at the No. 13 mangrove area in the deep interior in a very short period of time.

"Here we are, the top of this tree root is where we are looking for."

There is a long staircase built on the roots of the tree. Under the stairs is a dazzling wooden sign. Aunt Shao's "Rip-off Bar" is written on it in big words, as if it will not be willing to scare away all the guests. Papa Gu He was stunned by this bold business style. As a well-known businessman on Fishman Island, he couldn't agree with this business method of driving away customers.

Everyone climbed up to the top of the tree root through the long stairs. The "open" sign on the door of the bar indicated that there should be someone inside. Xiaoba knocked on the door, but no one answered, but the door was open. Xiaoba He opened the bar door casually and said hello to the people inside.

"Aunt Shao, Uncle Lei Li, I'm here to see you."

Xiao Ba, who pushed open the door and walked in, was stunned by the sight in front of him. Aunt Shao, whom he hadn't seen for ten years, was beating up a pirate with tattoos all over his body.

"Ah, it's Xiaoba. You can do whatever you want. I'm going to make some money from these little brats, and I'll be fine soon."

With more force, the woman whom Xiao Ba called Aunt Shao soon found a lot of money by force. Satisfied, she carried the three pirates to the door, and she threw the three pirates out of the door. Besides, it's hard to imagine how her weak body could drag three strong men to the door like chickens.

By the time she came to her senses after dealing with these little gangsters who were deliberately looking for trouble, and was about to entertain the new guests, Luffy had already rummaged through the food in the refrigerator on his own initiative, and Brooke had taken the initiative to eat the boiled beans on the counter. They stood up as if they were the owners of this bar.

"Luffy, you're going to get scratched, don't do this."

The blackmail incident he just saw and the eye-catching characters on the sign in front of the door made Chopper extremely worried about the fate of the two of them. It might be a natural weakness. Chopper was extremely afraid of violent women.

"It's okay, Xiaoba's friends don't have to pay."

Aunt Shao, who had been demanding every penny from the gangster, suddenly became generous. She picked up a bunch of marshmallows from the table next to her and handed them to Chopper. In fact, after sitting down, Chopper noticed the marshmallows on the plate, but he didn't dare to touch them at all.

"Wow, marshmallows are the most delicious." Chopper, who had no resistance to marshmallows, was very happy. He took a bite of the marshmallow and there were pets who love marshmallows on his wanted list. The word Chopper means that Aunt Shao will prepare marshmallows specially for Chopper.

"Only 100,000 Berry" marshmallows were instantly offered a high price.

"I don't have that much money." One hundred thousand berries was a huge sum of money to Chopper. Now he no longer had 100,000 berries, and Aunt Shao's terror almost made him cry.

"Haha, it's free."

After teasing the little civet cat, Aunt Shao opened the cover of the counter and sat on a high stool inside. She leaned on the counter with her elbows and held her cheeks in her hands, looking at everyone curiously while listening to Xiao Ba's story about the past few years. experience.

"Are you no longer a pirate?"

"Yes, now I have opened a dream takoyaki restaurant."

"It's rare for a mermaid to come to land. Is Kemi your current girlfriend?"

"Not yet, I'm not Xiaoba's wife yet." Hearing Aunt Shao's explicit question, Kemi's whole face turned red, and she was trembling and couldn't speak clearly.

"You are Monkey's group, right?" Aunt Shao said, looking at Luffy who was hiding next to the refrigerator and eating the food inside. Her eyes especially stayed for a long time when she saw the straw hat on Luffy's head.

"How do you know? Do you know us?"

"You are a famous figure in the news. It would be strange if you don't know each other. Besides, I am a fan of you, Little Monkey."

After pouring two cups of black tea for Luffy and Brooke, flicking the ashes from the cigarette butts, Aunt Shao continued with a slight surprise, "However, it's beyond my expectation that there are living skeletons and moving puppets among you. Besides, this is the first time I’ve heard of this cute girl holding an umbrella. Is she a new member?”

"We are just passengers on the ship now. We haven't decided yet whether we must go to sea with Luffy."

Wearing a Kumasi suit, Yi Xing answered Aunt Shao's question truthfully. During this period, he felt better and better towards Luffy and others. If it weren't for becoming a pirate that was against his will, he really wanted to join the gang. .

"Are you a puppet lover? Do you have to dress like this or do you have this hobby?"

This moving puppet has been very eye-catching since she entered the house, and now it actually speaks again. If she hadn't seen many novel things in her previous career as a pirate, she would have been really shocked. The girl next to the doll whom he met for the first time had been close to him since he sat down. If he couldn't see any sign of coercion, he would have doubted whether this man was using this method to abduct underage girls.

"I'm a human, not a puppet."

He unzipped Kumasi's neck and put the hood on the table aside. He took a deep breath. It was too uncomfortable to be inside the puppet. Today, he is no longer the stubborn goose he used to be. The strange look in Aunt Shao's eyes has not escaped his attention at all. Regardless of whether this strange look is true or not, he needs to explain it. .

"You're not allowed to take it off, and you're not allowed to talk, otherwise it won't be cute at all."

When the puppet started talking, Perona's reaction was still the same, but Yi Xing was not a zombie who obeyed orders, and Xiao Pei's unreasonable troubles were directly ignored by him.

"What a good boy. You wear such ridiculous puppets just to make the people you like happy. I was wrong about you."

Aunt Shao glanced at Perona and then at Yi Xing, and generally understood the possible relationship between the two. However, Yi Xing did not take Aunt Shao's teasing seriously at all. After being single for many years, he was used to living an ascetic life. In a short period of time, He still couldn't accept living with a girl, and Sanjishi's teachings still needed a process of adaptation in a short period of time.

"What do you think?" Aunt Shao was concerned about this matter for the first time. This enthusiasm was a bit inexplicable.

"Actually, I think Xiaopei is pretty good and I like her very much."

Although he can't accept a girl's love immediately, it feels good to be relied on by a cute girl like this. He also likes this feeling, but he doesn't understand why this Aunt Shao cares about such things. So thorough.

"I like it very much. This is not the answer I want, nor is it the answer Xiaopei wants. You should give her a clear explanation immediately. Whether you accept it or not, choose one of the two answers. Don't take the other." I’m trying to prevaricate you, but you have to at least react a little bit, otherwise you’ll hurt the girl’s heart. What I dislike the most is people like you, so tell me immediately.”

Aunt Shao said these words directly in front of everyone. Everyone was stunned for a moment. Perona lowered her head with a red face and remained silent, but she secretly watched Yi Xing's reaction from time to time. Even Yi Xing himself was also surprised. I was stunned by Aunt Shao's boldness. For the first time, he was forced into a corner. If he didn't get a clear explanation today, he might not be able to do anything good.

"I accept."

The other party meant well, and he finally realized that Perona's matter could no longer go on. Perhaps acceptance was the only option. Now that Aunt Shao had forced him to give the answer in advance, it was the best ending, and it also saved a lot of trouble in the future. Necessary trouble.
