The sword of the pirate is like a dream

Chapter 54 The Incident
"Captain, why are they all looking at us?"

Lily Xi pinched the brim of her hat, and looked curiously at the many pirates who were watching the group of three.

This is Screaming Island, an inconspicuous small port among the many pirate habitats in the East China Sea. Not long after the three of them got off the boat, they found that everyone quieted down the moment they found them, looking at them in astonishment, with a look on their faces. He didn't dare to show the atmosphere.Seems to be surrounded?
It is not accurate to say that they are onlookers, because they are not surrounded, but only attract the eyes of most of the pirates wherever they go.The originally noisy port quickly quieted down, and there were people whispering and whispering across layers of crowds.

Ai Ou was vigilant, pressed the handle of the knife and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, we will leave immediately after the supplies are finished."

Nami approached the two involuntarily, laughed a few times dryly, and asked in a low voice, "I said, Aiou, you have hunted down these pirates before, right? Why don't we go to another island for supplies?"

"There are not many pirates I have caught... Didn't you say that you are familiar with this place? Hurry up and lead the way, we will leave after shopping."

Nami reluctantly came to the front.

Although almost everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at the three of them in silence, they didn't seem to be malicious, and silently gave way to the three of them, but the atmosphere became more and more weird.

When a few people entered a shop under the leadership of Nami, the shop owner who was reading a newspaper inside was stunned for a moment when he looked up and saw the three of them clearly, and the half-yelled "Welcome" was stuck in his throat Here, the last word "Lin" could not be pronounced.

Nami walked over, and pinched her face unceremoniously and pulled her from side to side: "Hey, wake up."

The thick aunt came back to his senses, slapped Nami's hand away, and said angrily, "It hurts to death!"

"You know it hurts too? Then you still teased me before?"

"Isn't it just that I pulled you a few times when I was a child, so I need to take revenge every time I come over..." The aunt rubbed her pinched red face and whispered.

"Huh? What did you say?"

"It's nothing!" The aunt yelled back angrily, stroked her curly hair, and greeted Ai Ou and Lily Xi, who hadn't said a word, with a smile: "Guest, what do you want?"

Ai Ou has been looking around since he entered the store, but until now he has not figured out what the store sells, there are all kinds of things in a mess, knives, guns, pipes, ropes... even And half a steering wheel.These things are old and new, occupying four walls and most of the store space, extremely messy.

Asked by the shopkeeper at this time, both of them turned their attention to Nami.

Nami turned her aunt's face to herself, "First, a box of 'bait'."

The aunt's face changed: "Little Nami, what do you want 'bait' for? You want to hunt Neptunes? I told you that it is unreliable to make money from Neptunes!"

"No!" Nami said angrily, "We have something to go to near the calm zone, and the 'bait' is just for backup."

Only then did the aunt let out a sigh of relief, and went in to move things.

'Bait' is an item made by a special process, and it will have a strong attraction to sea kings when thrown into the sea, but it is only relatively speaking, not absolutely effective.

After seeing the treasure map, Nami quickly found the corresponding location on the sea map, but that place is close to the calm zone, and the calm zone is where the lairs of sea kings are located, so some means need to be prepared before going there , the 'bait' that can attract sea kings is one of them.

That's right, Ai Ou decided to find the treasure on this treasure map.After failing to be a bounty hunter, he lost his biggest source of income, and he had to do something, otherwise the heavy debt pressure would come to his mind, making it difficult to sleep and eat.At this time, the treasure map comes in handy.

When the aunt was there, Lily Xi had already looked at this dilapidated grocery store with a hint of mystery in it, and now as soon as the aunt left, she immediately jumped out, carefully approaching the dusty goods , as if trying to see something from above.

Nami pressed half of her body on the counter, leaned in and took out a pack of snacks familiarly, then leaned against the edge of the counter and tore open the package, and handed it over first: "Do you want to eat?"

Ai Ou glanced at it, and there were pieces of dried fruit inside, exuding a fragrance.He shook his head, and turned to ask the purpose of this time: "Can one store get it together?"

Nami made fun of it, took out a piece and stuffed it into her mouth, "It's just dried coconut... Do I look like the kind of person who poisoned me?"

Hearing Ai Ou's words, she chewed her food, and replied vaguely: "If you don't get it all together, only strange things are sold here, and ordinary food and water need to be replenished. The first thing you need to pay attention to when sailing on this sea. The first priority is to try to replenish the supplies on board every time you dock, and it will be too late to regret not replenishing until there is no water to drink.”

"Okay." Ai Ou suddenly noticed that a photo in the center of the newspaper spread out on the counter, which took up half of the page, looked familiar.

He reached out to grab the newspaper, but Nami pressed a corner against the soft body of the counter.

Nami was watching Li Lixi torment, and noticed his hand from the corner of the eye, and passed the dried coconut in his hand, "Duplicity..."

"I'm going to get a newspaper..." The corner of Aiou's mouth twitched, but he took out a piece of dried coconut.

"Oh oh oh oh!" Nami's body bounced away, and she grabbed the newspaper with her empty hand and handed it over roughly, her mouth not forgiving to cover up her embarrassment: "Just say it, it hurts I thought……"

Ao read the newspaper, biting the dried coconut silently.

The photo in the center belonged to a wanted warrant, and the familiar face on it was his profile.The top headline, in bold font, expresses the writer's shock and outrage:
"Insane! Killed thousands of marines, only one survived near death!"

Below the arrest warrant is a long string of numbers, "5" followed by seven "0".

What the hell, he clearly remembered that he didn't kill a single navy!Even the colonel just chopped off a hand!Who threw this pot?
Ao burst into flames.

The navy has no deep hatred against him, and there is no reason to frame him for no reason.Could it be that the colonel whose hand he cut off killed all the navy in retaliation?Impossible, even if that wretched man has this kind of heart, he doesn't have that kind of strength, and the workload and risks are too great. Anyone with a bit of common sense cannot or will not do this kind of thing.

Or did the female pirate climb up from the sea after he left, and she still had the strength to kill all the navy present?Isn't the navy so weak that they can't deal with those who have been disabled by themselves?

Or maybe the pirates go and come back...

Ai Ou guessed several possibilities one after another, but denied them one by one.

Searched through the entire newspaper, but could not find a single word about Dili Vera, only mentioned him, and a long list of dead.

Someone is doing something...
