East China Sea, Zhumeida Island, Cocoa West Village.
The sky is blue and the sea is calm. From time to time, seabirds fly by at low altitude, searching for possible prey. Then, they are startled by bursts of noise near the coast.
"To thank Amber Tours, cheers!"
"To celebrate defeating the Arlong Pirates, cheers!"
"Cheers to Sky Miko Wendy-chan!"
There were cheers after waves. Aaron, who has a bounty of 20 million, is a monster-level pirate to the entire East China Sea. It is unimaginable that a remote village like theirs could survive after meeting Aaron. .
Especially when the price they paid was just a few houses collapsing and a dozen people injured, this is definitely something worth celebrating.
"Huh? Does Perona have the same magical abilities as Wendy?" Noqigao asked in surprise.
Not long after the banquet started, Bellumel ran to have a drink with others. Nokigao and Nami naturally played with Wendy and Perona.
"Yeah, look." Perona released a little ghost with a white translucent body, a red sausage mouth, and round black eyes. It looked naive.
"So cute!" Nami reached out to poke her, but the little ghost nimbly dodged it.
Wendy pulled Nami and explained, "Don't touch her. If you touch her, she will become very negative and make a fool of herself."
Nozhiko asked curiously: "What does it mean to become negative?"
Perona frowned: "It's hard to explain, why don't you find someone to try it."
Wendy advised: "No, if you use your ability to tease others, you will be punished by Brother Tatsuya again."
"Then it's okay as long as they are not ordinary people?" Nami looked at the murlocs tied together and smiled like a little devil. She didn't have a good impression of these fishmen at all.
"That's right!" Perona pulled Nami and Nokigao and ran towards the fish people.
Wendy stretched out a hand belatedly and said helplessly: "This doesn't feel right..."
A few minutes later, Nokigao and Nami looked at Perona with admiration: "That's amazing!"
Perona put her hands on her hips proudly: "It's a trivial matter."
The area where the murlocs were was filled with low air pressure. After a few seconds, the murlocs who were tied up and unable to resist began to yell and curse. However, whoever cursed would be taken care of by the negative ghost.
After several twists and turns, the fish people fell into autistic state. They can have as much love as they want, and they won't die if they say a few negative words.
Zhang Da also glanced over there, didn't say anything, and continued to enjoy the manatee beef. Although Moo Moo looked cute on the outside, it was true that he demolished houses and hurt people. He was used in eighteen ways by the villagers. There is nothing unfair about cooking.
Tom and Artoria were also feasting next to them. Since leaving the Grand Line, they haven't eaten sea beast meat for a long time and miss it very much.
At a certain moment, Artoria stopped eating and reminded: "A guest is coming."
Zhang Da also looked at the tableware that she gently put down and asked, "Is it such a big deal?"
Artoria nodded: "It's an acquaintance."
"Mr. Tatsuya!" A villager ran over, "An old man came to the shore. He said he was an acquaintance of yours and wanted to see you."
"An acquaintance? Still an old man, Garp?" Zhang Da also wiped his mouth, got up and followed the villagers towards the shore.
Arturia followed silently. Tom looked at the owner and the meat on the table. He hesitated for a second, then hurriedly chased after him with a big meaty bone in one hand.
When he arrived at the shore, the old man was twisting his soaked shirt, exposing the strong muscles of his upper body.
Zhang Da was also surprised: "Leili?"
Rayleigh wiped his round glasses, put them on again, and said with a smile, "Long time no see, Tatsuya-chan."
It's been a long time since we last saw him, but Zhang Da didn't really want to see him: "Why are you here?"
"It's all thanks to you, Brother Tatsuya." Rayleigh glanced at him with some resentment, "Because a little girl asked me for help, I couldn't ignore it, so I had to send her back to the Kingdom of Kokia. You guys have been walking very gracefully on this journey."
Zhang Da also blinked, and it took him a long time to remember that before he left Shampoo Land, he seemed to have thrown a big blame on Lei Li. Unexpectedly, a slave was actually being hunted and ran to Xia Qi's bar for help.
"Ha, ha, ha, thank you for your hard work." Zhang Daye said with a smile, "Then what's going on with you? Where's your boat?"
Reilly said with a smile: "There was originally a small boat, but something happened and we had to swim over from the Kingdom of Corkia."
The villagers nearby were shocked: "Are you kidding me! Do you know how far away the Kingdom of Corkia is from here? You actually said you swam here?"
"Yeah, I'm very good at breaststroke." Rayleigh said matter-of-factly. "Because I was attacked by the King of the Offshore while I was sleeping at night, and the boat was swallowed up. I finally came out, but the boat was also damaged, so I swam. Three days and three nights.”
The jaws of the people around him almost dropped to the ground. Who is this guy? He doesn't brag like this, right? Leaving aside the question of whether you are good at breaststroke or not, can you survive being swallowed by the King of the Sea?
Zhang Da also felt that this statement was a little too misleading. A top boss like you would actually be attacked by the King of Offshore while sleeping?
I don’t know how many offshore kings there are in the East China Sea. They first ate the Bandit King, then Shanks, and this time they swallowed Rayleigh. They are simply the strongest creatures! I wonder if Rayleigh saw a familiar arm or something in its belly.
"So you came here to rest?" Zhang Da was also curious whether he came here by chance or because of Xiao Ba. He remembered that Xiao Ba seemed to have a good relationship with Lei Li.
Lei Li's answer was a bit beyond Zhang Daye's expectations: "No, I just heard a lot about my brother recently, so I came here to ask for a drink."
Starting from the 'Golden Island', the Amber's course was heading towards Upside Down Mountain, and it caught many pirates along the way. The news about them was not a secret. It is easy to judge their route based on some news and rumors. Even those who are looking for Wu Nan's treasure can find it, let alone Lei Li.
"But..." Rayleigh looked at the Arlong Pirates' ship parked on the shore and said, "When I got here, I found that a friend was also here. Can it be convenient for me to meet him?"
"Are you a friend of those fish-man pirates?" The villagers looked around, ready to find weapons to beat him out.
"No, only one of them is my savior." Rayleigh's expression was still kind, "His name is Xiaoba, he is an octopus fish man."
The expressions of the villagers softened a little, but they were still not kind. It seems that it is not too much to just ask to see the savior, right? However, they were not the ones who caught these pirates, and it was not their turn to make the decision. The villagers looked at Zhang Daye.
Tom stared at Reilly, feeling like he had seen the old man before, but also as if he had never seen him before. Tom took a big mouthful of sea animal meat, chewing it while lost in thought.
Artoria felt that there was no hostility in Rayleigh, so she felt relieved and took a small bite, and then another, on the big bone and meat that Tom held in his other hand.
Zhang Da also thought for a while and said, "Then let's meet."
…
When Zhang Daye brought Lei Li to the murlocs, a group of children were having fun playing pranks on the murlocs, throwing rocks, tying their hair and so on. They dispersed when they saw an adult approaching. Only Perona and the others were left.
Zhang Da also frowned, feeling that these naughty kids should be disciplined.
Perona looked at Zhang Daye with some guilt, and explained in a low voice: "They all ran over when they saw us playing tricks on the fishmen. I can't do anything to them, and I can't use my power on them."
"It's okay." Zhang Da is just worried that those naughty children are getting more and more naughty, but it's none of his business. Anyway, the problem children in his family have become more and more well-behaved.
Lei Li saw Xiao Ba, who was covered in bruises and tightly tied up, and greeted, "Xiao Ba, are you okay?"
"Rayleigh?" Xiao Ba blinked hard, wondering if he was hallucinating. However, because he had a more honest mouth, he was tormented the least, so he was actually in good condition. Xiaoba said excitedly, "Why are you here? I'm fine, but, Brother Aaron was killed by him!"
Lei Li frowned and looked at Zhang Daye: "Did you kill someone?"
Zhang Da also asked: "You haven't killed anyone?"
We haven't seen each other for a few months, but why are our words so explosive? Reilly said: "I mean, I heard that you and Jinbe have a good relationship. Is it really okay to kill Aaron like this?"
"Jinbe is Jinbe, and Aaron is Aaron. If he knew what this guy did, Jinbe would also want to kill him, but because his compatriots may not be able to do it, I will do it to save him trouble." This is Zhang Tatsuya and Shark Pepper concluded based on Jinbei's character, "Anyway, he will go to Fish-Man Island in the future. If he wants revenge, I will do it."
Lei Li looked Zhang Tatsuya up and down and said with a smile: "I always feel that Brother Tatsuya has changed a lot even though he has not been at sea for a long time."
"Yes." Zhang Da also looked at Lei Li, "But to your disappointment, the more I continue traveling, the more I hate pirates."
"So, what do you think about the World Government?" Rayleigh smiled indifferently. It doesn't matter if he hates pirates. Many pirates hate him too, but he has also heard about the Kingdom on the Bridge. What was reported in the news is There are many parts that cannot withstand scrutiny. Rayleigh's lenses reflected the light of wisdom, and it was easy for a man like him to see through the truth.
Zhang Daye's heart suddenly lurched. If Rayleigh could tell it, the top leaders of the world government and navy would also be able to guess that his little tricks could probably only deceive the people below. This would be embarrassing. He had agreed to secretly Development suddenly became a bright spot.
However, there should be no need to worry in the short term. The Navy's assessment of their strength should not be low, and their image has always been that of an ally of the Navy, always committed to fighting pirates. As long as the navy is not stupid, it should not push them to the opposite side.
For things like the Kingdom on the Bridge, where more than a thousand workers escaped and more than a thousand pirates were captured, as long as they didn't suffer too much loss and it was fair, everything would be fine.
Zhang Da also felt a little relieved. It seems that next time he does this kind of 'good person and good thing', he must find a good step for the world government?
Shaking his head, Zhang Daye said: "We are just an ordinary tour group, what can we think about the world government?"
"Yeah, that's good." Rayleigh smiled noncommittally. It was indeed an ordinary tour group. They killed the big shots of the past era very ordinary. They messed up the East China Sea very ordinary. Then let's continue the ordinary tour group. Go down.
"..." Zhang Da also looked at the smile on Lei Li's face and felt a little unhappy. He felt that he had tricked him and wanted Ye Yan to slap him.
He looked around and saw Ye Yan, who was wearing a gray military uniform and holding a machete, performing a show, and finally gave up the idea.
Lei Li chatted with Xiao Ba for a few more words, and finally looked at Zhang Daye.
Before he could speak, Zhang Da also said: "You don't want me to let him go, do you?"
Reilly asked: "Can you give this old man some face? I will persuade him carefully so that he will not become a pirate again in the future."
"Your hair is not red..." Zhang Daye muttered in a low voice. He felt that there was something wrong with Lei Li. When he opened a tavern, Rayleigh persuaded him to become a pirate. Now when he meets Hachi, Rayleigh persuades Hachi not to become a pirate again...
Isn't this to trick someone into going to sea and to persuade someone to be a good person?
Zhang Da also called Ajian over, pointed at Xiaoba and asked, "Did that guy hurt anyone?"
Ajian stared at Xiaoba, but Xiaoba didn't dare to look at him and lowered his head.
After thinking for a while, Jian said: "Most of the hurtful words were actually done by the sea beast. Then there might have been physical conflicts when the fishman called everyone to gather. I don't know which family he was responsible for."
"I didn't hurt anyone, but they might have been scared by me." Xiao Ba said hurriedly, "Nu, that little boy was still throwing rocks at me just now, maybe he's not scared anymore, right?"
Ah, Zhang Da also feels a little complicated. Xiaoba probably didn't lie. That naughty kid... let's settle the matter.
After thinking about it, Zhang Daye said: "Promise me three things and I will let him go."
"Tell me."
Zhang Da also clapped his fingers and said: "The first is what you said, guarantee that he will not become a pirate in the future. The second is to find ways to compensate the injured villagers and those whose houses were destroyed. The third is to let go It makes me very unhappy to kill a pirate. You can either rescue a hundred innocent good people or kill a hundred evil people. Is that acceptable?"
Rayleigh pushed up his glasses and replied: "The first two are fine, but the third one, does Tatsuya have some misunderstandings about my position?"
Zhang Da also looked at him: "If you want to save your benefactor, do you still have to explain your position?"
Rayleigh lowered his head slightly, his eyes blocked by shadows, and asked, "There are other ways to save people. What if I don't agree?"
"Then let's have a fight and knock down all ten members of our Amber Tour Group. Save whoever you want to save."
