One Piece: The Long Road

Vol 3 Chapter 12: Nahana

.

“Okay, let’s stop.” Smog was accustomed to the dialogue between these two subordinates. As usual, he made a timely sound to stop the two men who were about to evolve into a fight.

Of course, the fights mentioned here will probably only be initiated by Dasqi.

Seeing that Smog had spoken, Dusqi looked like she wanted to say something, but she was glared fiercely by the former, and immediately swallowed the words that came out of her mouth back into her throat, but she was still very unwilling, and gave her a fierce look. The dull-looking Simon.

“Hmph.” After Simon snorted coldly, he quickly turned his head away, turning a blind eye to the wink, and Dusky gnashed his teeth in anger.

With the end of this bland farce, the warship returned to its former dull atmosphere.

A few days later, depending on the direction pointed by the permanent pointer, the warship has also been traveling for a while, and everyone on the ship can clearly feel the change in temperature. The temperature that was originally a little low is obviously rising at this time.

Gradually, some of the navy felt the temperature rise, and could not help but take off the padded jackets they were wearing in their uniforms.

And this change in temperature naturally caught Simon’s attention. In addition to exercising for a few days, he spent the rest of the time carefully asking Smog about the kingdom of Alabasta, so the obvious change in temperature made Simon in his heart. Guess the destination may not be far away.

Although the temperature has risen significantly, the oncoming sea breeze is slightly cool. Feeling this comfortable sea breeze, Simon stood upright at the bow of the boat, overlooking the sea in the distance, and there was a table beside him. And the chair, Smoker was sitting on the chair very manly at this time, the number of cigars in his mouth had not changed, it was still two.

As for Dasqi, that knife idiot is probably hiding in the cabin to maintain clear water and the rain of time.

His body was straight without any tremors. After Simon stood on the bow deck for a while, the shadow of a small island suddenly appeared in his line of sight. It seemed that the distance was still far away, so he could only vaguely see a black spot.

When Simon discovered the land, the navy standing on the lookout also saw it, and immediately reported loudly below: “Colonel Smoker, you can already see the land!”

Hearing what the navy said, Smog, who had a lazy face, suddenly regained his senses. He stood up from his chair very quickly and looked into the distance. Turn around and spread out the map placed on the table.

“Simon, come and have a look.” Smog sat on the chair and motioned for Simon to come and look too. When Simon heard the words, he quickly turned around and saw that Smog was looking at the map of the kingdom of Alabasta.

For this map, Simon also carefully read it several times during the voyage. Due to the large scale of the map, only some important cities are listed on the map, and it is not too detailed. Just read it roughly a few times. , you can keep it in your mind.

And when he was about to arrive at the Kingdom of Alabasta, he was very puzzled that Smog suddenly started to check the map again.

Smog pressed on the corner of the map with one hand, and pointed at a city on the coast with the other hand, with the words Naha, the port city, written on it.

“If you want to enter the interior of Alabasta, you will usually buy the materials needed to walk in the desert in this city. If the Straw Hats come to Alabasta, they will definitely log in in this city.” Smog After he finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at Simon.

“Well.” Simon, who was looking down at the map, nodded, and immediately noticed Smog’s gaze, he raised his head slightly, his eyes met Smog, and said lightly: “Old smoker, you want to wait in this city. Are you the Straw Hats?”

“That’s right.” Smog responded in a deep voice.

After hearing Smog’s affirmative answer, Simon raised his eyebrows and suggested: “Then, you should ask the woman who was in the same period as you in the military academy again, and see if Luffy has entered from yesterday to this time. Within the waters of the Kingdom of Alabasta.”

Hearing this, Smog’s expression remained unchanged, and he said lightly: “If there is any news, Tina will take the initiative to notify me through the phone bug, so I haven’t received any news from her yet, which means that the straw hat has not arrived in Alabasta. .”

For the woman Tina, Simon also knew a little through the general introduction of Smog, and she was a violent woman.

“Haha.” Simon chuckled lightly, with a bit of ridicule in his tone, and said with a rare ambiguous expression: “It’s not bad, but what I didn’t expect is… the taste of the old smoking gun is very unique.”

As soon as Simon’s ridiculing words were finished, Smog’s face changed instantly, and then quickly returned to a dull look.

“I didn’t expect that some people like that crazy idiot woman.” Smog retorted calmly to Simon’s ridicule, and what he said also changed Simon’s face.

Simon is not a fool, he naturally heard the meaning of Smog’s words. He was also very puzzled about Dusky’s feelings. Simon, who has been in love, can’t tell what kind of feeling this is, and what kind of position Dusky is in his heart, and at this time, what Smog said suddenly made him panic. .

I… like Dusky?

how is this possible! That idiot off-line girl!

Shaking his head, Simon firmly denied it in his heart.

“Then wait for the arrival of Luffy’s gang at Nahana.” Throwing out the panic in his heart, Simon looked flat, and pointed to the icon on the map that marked the port city of Naha.

For Simon’s change just now, Smog saw it in his eyes and smiled in his heart. Seeing Simon’s change of topic, he no longer bothered, but nodded slightly.

Seeing that Smoker didn’t intend to dwell on the topic that made him flustered, Simon suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

If you turn your head and look into the distance, you can already see that there are some huge yellow sand dunes ahead. At the same time, you can also vaguely see a city with an Arabic architectural style, which is the port city of Nahana.

After a while, under Simon’s gaze, the warship slowly sailed into the port of Nahana, which is a very monotonous port, with a few rows of wooden boards hanging over the sea at intervals.

As soon as the not-so-big warship entered this small port, it appeared to be extremely huge, and it filled the small port at once, and after the warship was docked, Simon jumped directly from the deck. One landed on the shore.

Stepping on the land of Nahana, Simon walked towards a house similar to an Arabian building on the earth, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the wall made of sand and stone, feeling a little heat from above, An uncontrollable joy surged out of my heart.

“This is a country I’ve never been in contact with!” Gently scratching on the wall, Simon exclaimed with a smile.

Having never seen such a style of building, Simon fell in love with it irresistibly as soon as he set foot in this country. When it comes to new things, Simon is like a child who never hides his inner thoughts before discovering his favorite toy.

“What are you doing here?” Dasqi, who got off the warship, saw Simon in a daze in front of a house, and walked over to ask strangely. Since Simon was facing her back, he couldn’t see Simon’s expression at this time. .

Hearing the familiar voice, Simon was startled, and immediately adjusted his emotions, turned around and said lightly: “It’s nothing.”

After speaking, he looked in the direction of the warship and found that Smoker and the navy were ready.

Smaller took the lead, followed by the navy in an orderly manner.

“Simon, Dasqi, the Straw Hats haven’t come to this city yet. Let’s move freely for a while. It will be easier to find the Straw Hats if they are scattered.” Smog said as he walked.

“Yeah.” Simon nodded.

Hearing what Smog said, the first thought in Dasqi’s heart was to go to the weapons store in Nahana City. Then, she remembered that in Rogge Town, every time she wanted to go with Simon, In the end, they were all coldly rejected~www.readwn.com~ bastard, what do you want to do for a while? “Dusky’s heart trembled, and he asked Simon beside him with a calm expression on his face.

Hearing this, Simon was stunned for a while, and then quickly replied: “Look around.”

“Is that so.” Hearing Simon’s answer, two indistinct flushes floated across Dusky’s pretty face, and she said in a hurried tone, “I’ll go to the weapons store later, can you come with me?”

Quickly saying what he wanted to say, Dusqi turned around suddenly, the flushes on both sides of her cheeks were beautiful and moving, at this time, Smog and the navy had entered Nahana.

“Okay.” Looking strangely at Dasqi with his back to him, Simon nodded in response.

Perhaps because of what Smog said before, Simon didn’t think about rejecting Dusky’s invitation now. He suppressed the idea of looking around and agreed to Dusky’s proposal.

“He… agreed?” Dasqi, who had her back to Simon, was very stunned. In fact, she never thought that Simon would agree to go to the weapons store with him. She bit her lip, and the fluctuations in her heart trembled sharply. When he got up, he didn’t dare to turn around for a while, for fear that his performance would make Simon laugh.

A few minutes later, Simon saw that Dusqi had been turning his back to him and didn’t speak. He shook his head helplessly, ignored the off-line girl, and walked directly to the streets of Nahana.

“How long do you want to stay there?” After walking some distance from the port, Simon’s faint voice came into Dusky’s ears.

“Uh!” Hearing the voice, Dasqi turned around suddenly, and found that Simon had gone a long way, the flushing on his face gradually dissipated, and he was anxious, “Wait for me.”

After he finished speaking, he ran towards the straight figure, during which he rarely fell to the ground.
