Pirate Merchant

"Nami, how long will it take us to reach the great route?"

With the bright cloudless sky, the seagulls flying with the Meili, and the sparkling sea, the Straw Hats enjoyed the sea journey leisurely.

And on the Meili, which was slowly heading towards the entrance of the great route, Luffy, who was sitting idle on the sheep's head in the VIP seat of the Meili, looked back and asked Nami expectantly.

"We just set off from Rogge Town two days ago, and it will be several days before we return to La. Moreover, that guy doesn't use his fruit ability to help us speed up, so isn't it normal to be slower?"

Nami, who had been looking at the map, replied impatiently at Luffy's frequent inquiries.

"Hey, why are you blaming me again? Didn't I already explain it? Your Mei Li is too old, and going too fast will only speed up its collapse."

Mu Qian, who was playing Monopoly with Zoro and Sanji, retorted with some dissatisfaction that he had explained this issue to Nami countless times.

"Wouldn't it be better to wrap the bottom of the boat with ice crystals?"

Nami said even more impatiently.

"You are completely nonsense. Both my Lucky and Dawa have special antifreeze treatment for the bottom of the ship. I can indeed control the temperature to freeze to protect the bottom of the ship from wear and tear. But once the ice melts, this old ship The bottom of the ship that has been frozen will become more brittle, and it is strange that the brittle bottom of the ship will not rot if it is soaked in the sea. Don’t treat me as a panacea, I can indeed control the temperature, but I can’t control the rot.”

Muqian threw a sieve, moved his character forward a few steps, and then complained about Nami after giving Sanji's restaurant a few thousand game tokens.

"Hey, everyone, a large flock of birds is spotted to starboard."

Usopp, who was standing on the observation deck of the mast, caught something strange with a monocular, and immediately said it to the people on the deck.

"A large flock of birds?"

Luffy raised his head suspiciously and asked Usopp on the observation deck.

"Well, there seems to be something big on the sea, I can't see it clearly, what is it? Is it a small boat? It also looks like a big fish."

Usopp took off the windproof binoculars on his head, and kept adjusting the focus to see clearly what was on the sea.

"I did hear that seabirds would gather above the big fish. Luffy, go catch them for lunch. I'm busy here, so I can't get away."

Sanji, who lost his points and went to the coast police station to squat, counted the money to the bank, and said loudly to Luffy.

"Okay! I'm on!!!"

Luffy, who became excited when he heard about eating, stood up, raised his fist and hit a rubber harpoon.

"Ooooh! Caught a big fish!"

Luffy laughed excitedly and pulled his hand back.

"Hey! Hey! Wait a minute?! How are you going to stop?!"

Sanji, who was holding the game token in his hand, looked at the black dot that was flying fast, and asked Luffy in surprise, and threw away the game token in his hand, and followed his instinct to dodge Luffy's attack '.

But facing away from that direction, at this time the luck is the best, the most shops are opened, the most money is made, and Sauron, who is having a great time at this time, is unlucky. Along with it, the Monopoly chessboard and the hundreds of millions of game tokens in his hands were swept into the sea.

"It's a girl, I'm a little dehydrated, Sanji, go get some water and porridge."

After turning slightly sideways to avoid Luffy's retracted arm, Mu Qian looked at the little girl he 'caught' from Luffy's retracted hand, and said to Sanji who was beside him after confirming that she was fine.

"OK~"

Sanji, who was almost in debt, stood up and patted the dust, then turned and walked towards the kitchen in the cabin, and sincerely thanked Luffy for messing up the game.

"Then, she will leave it to you."

Mu Qian, who was holding the unconscious little girl on his lap, stood up holding her, handed her to Nami tenderly, picked up the rope and walked towards the direction where Sauron fell into the water.

"One day, I... I'm going to kill him"

Sauron, who was hit hard, his eyes were a little white, and he put the rope that Mu Qian dropped on his body. On the way to be pulled up, he was still holding the drenched game token in his hand, and he felt severe pain in his body. Zhong Evil swears fiercely that besides Mu Qian, there is another Luffy on his must-kill list.

"It hurts so much!!!"

Amidst the girl's screams of pain covering her head, Usopp, who was wiping the little girl's forehead with a towel, was hit on the chin by the little girl's head, his eyes rolled white, and he passed out before he even had time to scream.

"Are you awake? Are you more energetic than you imagined? Besides the head that hurt just now, is there any pain there?"

Nami, who is very patient with children, greeted the little girl who was rescued by Luffy with a smile on her face.

"You must be starving, right? I'm making soup for you, and you'll have delicious soup and porridge later."

Sanji, who was cooking, also turned around and replied to the little girl with brown hair.

"So lucky!"

Seeing that the people around her cared so much for her, the little girl clenched her fists and celebrated.

"Did you die in the previous storm? It was a close call. What's your name?"

Seeing that the little girl was fine, Nami smiled and continued to question the girl.

"Before asking someone, you should state your name."

The little girl who was treated like a child said to Nami in a displeased voice pretending to be an adult.

"Hehe, that's right. My name is Nami. Sanji cooks porridge in the kitchen. He looks scary. The guy wearing a girdle is Zoro. And the long-nosed guy who was stunned by you is Uso. Pu, this smiling man who seems to be different from us and has a full stomach, you can call him Antonio, you can also call him Tamo, and"

Nami introduced everyone sitting around the kitchen dining room one by one.

"My name is Luffy, and I'm the captain of this pirate ship."

Luffy proudly showed off his identity with a bright smile, but he didn't know that his showing off frightened the little girl.

"We're going to the Great Route! Ah. She's not moving"

Luffy happily showed off his purpose, but the little girl opened her mouth wide like a doll and became motionless after hearing that it was a pirate ship.

"What about the little girl?"

Zoro sat on the ground with his eyes closed and meditated, opened his eyes and asked Luffy.

"Well~ let's talk about it tomorrow."

Luffy said with a very casual smile.

"The Millennium Dragon Chapter? I thought it would directly enter the great route."

At night, after confirming that the little girl was Abis, Mu Qian left the kitchen. At this time, he was sitting in the observation deck looking at the notebook in his hand and muttering softly.

The appearance of the little girl named Abis made Mu Qian's plans postponed. If he changed the plot without authorization, who knows if he would meet Princess Weiwei, his only goal on the great route.

"But it's really lively. It's so easy to get along with a kid. Luffy and the others are really good at making friends with people."

Listening to the laughter in the cabin, Mu Qian closed the diary in his hand and couldn't help but smile. He could truly appreciate the indescribable friendship with Luffy and the others. This may be the young overlord of this era. A natural talent, right?

"But this time we have to deal with the navy? Although that fat man is not a good thing, but I don't like to help them as pirates here in the East China Sea openly, well~ let's fish this time, anyway, the great route The first 'crocodile' of the world is hidden in Alabasta in the back, and he must be enough"

After closing the diary, Mu Qian put the diary that recorded all his plans in his arms, stood up, looked towards the brightly lit kitchen, and made his decision to fish this time.

Moreover, the small boss of the Millennium Dragon chapter is a sickle fruit capable user. A fruit capable user of this strength does not need to do it himself at all, and killing him will only make him feel ashamed.
