The pirate group that owns two ships is quite famous in this area. Although its strength is not very good, it still has a bounty of several million. If you put it in front of the Amber Tour Group, it will be free.
As soon as this group of unlucky people discovered the Amber, they were scared out of their wits by a group of little ghosts. As soon as the captain started to comfort him, saying that ghosts were just scary things and couldn't hurt anyone, a little ghost exploded in his face.
"Hehehehehehehe~" Perona laughed evilly and controlled the little ghosts to chase the pirates around. She really likes this kind of teasing, especially since she doesn't have to worry about being scolded after teasing pirates.
The Amber turned the helm and moved closer to the pirate ship. Zhang Da also rubbed Tom's head. These people are in such misery, so we won't take the lead in using Tom.
After struggling for a while, Perona lost interest. Ye Yan and Wendy each chose a ship to train with these pirates. The process could be described as overwhelming.
While waiting for the navy, Zhang Da also briefly interrogated the pirates whether they happened to pass by here or found it on purpose.
"We heard that you have found the treasure of the great pirate Wu Nan, so..."
"No wonder we have encountered pirates so frequently recently. The news has finally begun to spread." Zhang Daye then asked, "You have only heard about the treasures, but not about our achievements? At this level, we still have Dare you come to trouble us?"
"Of course I heard about it. It is said that several pirate groups have been wiped out, and even Creek was defeated by you." The pirate paused, his eyes shining, "But that is Wu Nan's treasure! Golden Mountain Ah! What if I can succeed?"
"You really need money rather than your life." Zhang Da also finally understood what it means that people die for money and birds die for food. "And how can a boat as small as ours fit the Golden Mountain?"
The pirate looked like "you think I'm stupid" and said confidently: "You must have only taken a small part and hid most of the gold. As long as I kill you and get the treasure map..."
"Oh, that's right." Zhang Da also felt that what he said made sense. The temptation of Wu Nan's treasure was greater than he imagined. It was so great that some fools wanted to try their luck even if they knew they couldn't win. , there are many people who hold the idea that "if they can succeed, they will make a lot of money."
It seems that there is basically no need to worry about travel expenses while in the East China Sea.
This time it was the naval patrol ship of the 77th branch that came to hand over. According to them, this is the intersection area of the naval jurisdiction of the 77th branch and the 16th branch. There are many places that are unclear.
"Colonel Blimbling asked me to say hello to you on his behalf and thank you for your contribution to maintaining stability in the East China Sea." The major in charge of this patrol ship spoke with a bit of awe. He heard that these are the most dangerous ships in the entire East China Sea. This is a team of hard-working bounty hunters. They kill a pirate group every now and then, and I heard they only work part-time. It's really amazing.
"You're welcome, this is what we, law-abiding citizens, should do." Zhang Daye accepted the money with a smile, "How are you, Colonel Blimbling? I was honored by his hospitality last time. I will definitely pay him a visit if I have the chance."
The Marine Lieutenant Commander's expression changed, and his words became stammering: "It's... it's getting late. We need to escort these pirates back to their ships as soon as possible, so as not to delay your continued sailing."
The navy lieutenant commander hurriedly led the team away, fearing that Zhang Da would also stay with them to eat together.
Zhang Da also raised his head and glanced at the sun, wondering: "It's not yet noon, why is it late?"
"What a risk..." After getting away from the Amber, the major wiped the sweat from his forehead.
A lieutenant asked: "Major, would it be rude to leave in such a hurry? Doesn't it mean that the Amber Tour Group is a friend of the navy, and each branch should try to have a good relationship with them? At least they should be invited to have lunch... …”
"Stop!" The major almost jumped up when he heard that he wanted to invite the Amber Tour Group to dinner. "Listen carefully, this is the only thing that is absolutely prohibited on the warships sent by our base. Anyone who invites them to dinner …”
The major recalled the experience of that mission and showed a sad expression: "The person who invited them to dinner must apologize to all the sailors on the ship!"
The lieutenant looked confused.
Three days later, Zhang Daye and the others eliminated several unknown small pirate groups while sailing.
"These scum are so annoying. Caicheng dares to come here and cause trouble. The ship has a small bounty and a low reward. Who gave them the courage?" Ye Yan complained. He was suddenly woken up by the sound of cannons after a good nap. He was in a very unhappy mood.
"It's true, people in Yue Cai are more confused. Is our flag too kind, making people think that the previous achievements are fake?" Zhang Da also pondered whether to put the image of Shark Chili on it. , make it more fierce.
Tom protested and bared his teeth to show that he was extremely vicious and had somehow sank a small pirate ship the day before yesterday.
Shark Chili also protested. He felt that he was quite kind. When he hit someone yesterday, he controlled his strength and only used the level of 500 tiles of fishman karate.
Zhang Da also had no choice but to give up this unreliable idea. Just worry about it, and just think that the days before leaving the East China Sea were spent cleaning up more garbage for the people of the East China Sea.
Shark Chili said: "As planned, we are going to Zhumeida Island today. It is a big island with a naval base on it. The pirates should not dare to be too presumptuous. They will be clean for a few days by then."
Zhang Da also nodded. Where on earth had he heard of Zhumeida Island?
…
At the same time, there was a small village in the corner of Zhumeida Island.
"Pirates! Pirates are coming!" someone shouted in panic.
"What a scary boat. It's actually being pulled by a monster!"
"Jian! What should we do?"
Everyone near the coast realized that this time they met a completely different pirate group than before, and they looked at Sheriff Takeru in confusion.
Jian had never seen such a scene before, so he calmly said: "I'll contact the navy immediately. Everyone, find a place to hide. If you want money, give it to them first. It's important to save your life, hide quickly!"
This is a normal operation for ordinary people when they encounter pirates. It is best to hide and not be discovered. If they are discovered, they will lose money and avoid disaster, and wait for the navy to come to the rescue.
When encountering pirates who not only want money but also kill themselves, people will go all out if they really have no choice - the probability that ordinary people can defeat those vicious pirates is too low.
The villagers took action, but this time the pirates moved much faster than they imagined.
Although the boat is still far away from the coast, the monster pulling the boat rushes towards the shore like an arrow from the string: "Moo-ouch-"
With a ferocious roar, the manatee, which seemed pitiful, weak and helpless in front of Aaron, opened its mouth wide, revealing its fangs, and jumped out of the sea and rushed towards the houses on the shore in the horrified eyes of the villagers.
Boom——Crack——
The villagers felt the ground shaking under their feet, and a row of houses were razed to the ground by Moo Moo. When the smoke and dust cleared, Moo Moo stared fiercely at the humans next to them.
"My—my house!" More than a dozen people knelt on the ground, thankful that they were not inside, but also distressed for their loss.
Then several more people shouted with red eyes: "Peach, Pinkie is still at home!"
"Kinobbio!"
"Louis!"
The villagers shouted the names of their relatives, wives, children, or brothers. Villagers with relatives still at home felt that the sky was falling. Their houses were destroyed in an instant by such a big monster, and the people inside …
"Bastard monster!" Several villagers rushed forward desperately, ignoring the size difference, and punched and kicked Moo Moo.
"Don't do anything stupid! That kind of monster, that kind of monster..." Ajian wanted to say that we are not as big as one of its eyes, and it is impossible to fight against it, but if we were in their place, we would go up and fight for our lives. Right? Ajian clenched his fists. He could order such a monster. How terrible of a person was he coming this time?
As Jian thought, the fists and kicks of ordinary people were like flies hitting people head-on to Moo Moo. It didn't hurt, but it was really annoying. He swiped it with his tail and several people were beaten. It flew out and crashed into someone else's house.
"Mali!"
"Kuba!"
The villagers subconsciously shouted the names of several people, but their bodies did not dare to move. Ajian touched the pistol on his waist with a livid face. This old-fashioned pistol could not penetrate the skin of this monster at all, right?
Now, what do we do?
Without giving him much time to think, the ship of the Aaron Pirates finally docked, headed by Aaron, followed closely by Croobie, Jiu, and Xiaoba, and a large group of strange fish-men. One after another got off the boat, everyone had a proud smile on their face.
"What on earth is this..." The development of the matter has completely exceeded the imagination of the villagers.
"This is a murloc! The same murloc as King Shichibukai Jinbei who was just appointed last year!" The most experienced old village doctor recognized the identities of these people, "Why do the murlocs from the Grand Line come to us!"
"What?" Everyone, including Ajian, looked shocked.
Aaron strode up to the villagers, opened his arms, and announced loudly:
"Ignorant and insignificant humans! From now on, this village, no, this island is ruled by us!"
"Oh!" the fish people shouted in unison.
The villagers looked unhappy, but they had not completely given up hope. Jian had already asked the navy for help. He would be fine soon, right?
Aaron didn't care what these people thought, he ordered: "Bring everyone in the village here!"
"Yes, Brother Aaron!" The murlocs took action one after another and spent some time to 'invite' everyone from house to house.
The few people who were beaten away by Mo Mo were also carried out and thrown in front of the old doctor for treatment. Just judging from the old doctor's face, these people were probably in danger.
"Listen up! One adult is worth 100,000 Baileys, and one child is 50,000 Baileys. Anyone who can't pay..." Aaron showed a cruel smile, "Kill!"
Some of the murlocs stood around to prevent anyone from escaping, and some of them carried money in their pockets and recorded them one by one. Yes, they could record them. The murlocs found a population register in the village, which recorded in detail the number of people in each household. A few people even registered their marital status and whether they had children. The population management was very scientific.
It was just that it was easier for Aaron to find someone at this time. After understanding the charges, he looked at the house that Mo Mo had destroyed, and then looked in the direction of the old doctor: "Who were those guys who were confiscated? They were killed by Mo Mo along with their family. Isn’t it... It’s really nerve-wracking. I originally planned to kill only those who couldn’t pay, so they would be unlucky.”
"How can we survive if we have to pay so much money every month!" The villagers whispered either angrily or sadly.
"Be patient for a while. At least we have survived for the time being. The navy will catch them soon." Ajian was sad and a little lucky at the same time. Fortunately, Berumel's house is relatively remote, otherwise it would be terrible. Two adults in one She will definitely not be able to come up with 200,000 for a child.
However, there was nothing to worry about. A fish-man suddenly said: "Brother Aaron! There is also a house far away from the village! There is smoke coming out of it."
'Oops! Ajian was shocked. He quickly calculated his family's savings, and found that even if he spent all of them, it wouldn't be enough.
"Huh?" Aaron glanced at the smoke from the kitchen in the distance and smiled, "I almost missed it. Who lives there?"
He flipped through the registration book and said, "It's a woman named Berumel. She's single. There should be only one person. Can I go there?"
"Let's go together, just in time to see what our future territory will look like." Aaron planned to look around and then find a suitable place to build a paradise for fishmen.
"By the way, leave some people to watch the boat." He said he was watching the boat, but he glanced at the villagers. With Moo Moo here and a dozen brothers left behind, there is no need to worry about anything happening to these people.
Aaron took most of the fishmen away. The remaining fishmen didn't want to stay with these humans, so they simply returned to the boat. Moo Mo also turned around and jumped back into the sea.
Ajian was already panicking. Although Berumel was listed as single on the registration book, Nokigao and Nami must be eating at home at this time. If Aaron saw them, they would have to pay. They would be dead by then. .
And with Berumel's character, I'm afraid he would take action directly before Aaron asked for money, right? That's even worse!
"What should Berumel do? Can she afford so much money?" Some villagers raised the same concerns as Ajian.
"How about we work together to at least get through the current hurdle first, and we can figure out the next thing later."
"But how can anyone have so much money..."
"Okay, let's all work together if we have spare money, and go and clear some of the ruins. The people inside may still be alive, so remember to hide them quietly. Also, Dr. Gao, Mali and the others are asking for your help. "Ajian tried to calm himself down and assigned the work one by one.
"Ajian, what are you going to do?" asked the old doctor Nagao.
"Go and save them. Aaron said he wanted to visit the village by the way. He won't go too fast. As long as I bypass them and hide Nokigao and Nami in advance, I only need to pay 100,000 beli at that time. Beru Mel should have some savings."
"Please don't mention the two children Nokigao and Nami." Jian finished explaining and pretended to go home. After confirming that he was out of sight of the murlocs, he took steps and started running, praying in his heart, "Bei Rummel, don’t be impulsive! '
…
Within a few minutes, another ship appeared on the sea, the cat's head flag on the top of the mast fluttering in the wind.
A little blue-haired loli poked her head out of the observation room and shouted, "I saw the island!"
After a pause, Wendy continued to shout: "There is a big ship parked on the shore, it's a pirate ship!"
After her words fell, Arturia pushed aside Zhang Tatsuya, who was temporarily at the helm, and held the steering wheel with both hands. The Amber's speed suddenly accelerated.
Cocoyasi is Coconut, which literally means coconut. I don’t know why a village rich in oranges is called a coconut village. In addition, the translation team of Tencent Comics One Piece is really hard to describe, and the translation of Nokigao into "Wild Road" is also amazing.
I originally thought that no one in the East China Sea knew the fishmen, but after re-reading the manga, I discovered that the villagers in Cocoa West Village not only knew the fishmen, but also heard about the split of the Sun Pirates... which is a bit amazing.
