One Piece: Free Ronin

Chapter 42: Indecision

The two came to sit beside the noisy bonfire.

Brian, who was quickly turning the barbecue in his hand, raised his head and smiled at them, and then concentrated on grilling the meat again.

Xia Qi, Peijin and the boatmen were also very busy.

Whenever the meat in their hands was roasted until it was about seven or eight years old, they would sprinkle some seasonings on it, quickly hand it to Flo and Yixiao, and then immediately insert the other two pieces of meat and start roasting.

Whenever Flo and Yixiao took the piece of meat, they would put it directly into their mouths. Then their throats would move and the whole piece of meat would enter their stomachs.

Then he happily waited for another person to bring the barbecue.

Amidst the exclamations and the sound of sizzling barbecue, the two piles of meat disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye...

The boatmen, Wolfe and the others stared blankly at Flo who swallowed the last piece of barbecue.

Immediately, there were screams and cheers one after another.

A boatman shouted loudly: "That's amazing, Brother Flo! Hahahaha, you must have eaten barbecue for at least 100 people."

Another boatman answered: "It's more than that! At least there are enough for 150 people."

"Yes, yes! There will be barbecue for at least 150 people, and depending on the situation, his belly can still hold more food."

A boatman sitting further back said softly to old boatman Jim: "Uncle Jim, are these two really human beings? How on earth do they have such a huge appetite..."

"It is indeed very powerful..."

Old Jim just sighed softly, and then began to close his eyes and rest.

Wolfe looked at the corners of Rona's twitching mouth, with a strange expression on his face, and even cold sweat dripped down his forehead...

He gently patted Luo's arm and said softly: "This monster's eating amount explains a lot of problems, Luo! I think you know what this means..."

Luo nodded slightly.

"Hiccup~ Hahaha, I'm so full."

Flo said with a laugh, patting Drum's high belly.

Then he stood up, took a breath, and saw that his bulging belly shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye until it returned to a strong eight-pack abs.

Everyone was stunned for a moment when they saw it...

Little William looked at his still bulging belly, opened his bright eyes, and exclaimed: "Boss Flo, how did you do this? It's amazing! Can't you keep eating this way? ?”

The surrounding boatmen and Luo and the others also looked at it in surprise.

Flo waved his hands and said with a smile: "There is still a certain limit. This is just a skill to control the body. It's no big deal! Hahaha"

Seeing everyone's expressions of "Who believes your nonsense?", Flo shook his head and said nothing.

At this time, old boatman Jim stood up and said to all the boatmen: "The banquet is over, please help clean up and go back to rest."

Then he looked up at the sky and continued: "It's getting late, and there are still a lot of things to do tomorrow."

When Wolf saw the boatmen getting up and starting to clean up, he said to Jim: "Old Jim, why don't we just let everyone have some fun today? Why are you going back so soon?"

Jim, the old boatman, smiled and joked: "Everyone is not as free as you, and there is enough excitement today. It's just that you haven't seen it."

After hearing this, Wolfe looked at Flo and Yixiao thoughtfully.

Flo smiled and waved his hands and said: "Hahaha, I acted a little recklessly before, but luckily it didn't have much impact."

"Fortunately, there are not many people in this area...the impact should not be too big." Yixiao continued with a smile.

Wolfe and others still haven't figured out what they are talking about.

It wasn't until some of the boatmen who were cleaning up the mess who had experienced the scene that happened on the dock before began to vividly describe it to those who were not present at the time.

Only then did they learn what happened.

Then everyone looked at Flo and Yixiao in surprise.

Just when Xia Qi and Pei Jin were about to ask something, Luo suddenly whispered: "Shut up, you two..."

The two of them were stunned, looked at each other, and then closed their mouths very wisely.

Wolfe smiled and said to Flo: "If you want to rest, I have two empty cabins here. If you don't mind, you two can stay here first."

Flo and Brian looked at each other, then looked at each other and smiled. When he nodded, Flo said happily: "That's great, hahaha. It saves me the trouble of building a wooden house again! Thank you so much."

Wolf waved his hand and smiled: "You're welcome. Besides, I also want to know more about you two. These children Luo have always wanted to go overseas... If it's suitable, I also hope that they can become you two. Where is my partner?"

Flo grinned when he heard this and said, "That's exactly what I planned, hahaha."

"What? Mr. Wolfe, do you want us to go to sea with him?"

"Hey, hey, hey! You're too independent! We will form our own pirate group in the future!"

Shaggy and Pekin yelled.

Bebo, who was hiding behind Luo, also shouted: "I want to go to sea with the boss!"

Luo waved his hand to stop the three of them from continuing to talk, and looked into Flo's eyes and said, "You three, please calm down for now... If you guessed it right, Mr. Flo came here because of me, the doctor. ..He hasn’t invited you yet...Am I right? Mr. Flo belongs to the family."

Flo scratched his head and grinned: "Ah! Because following me will be more dangerous, so..."

"Hey! Are you saying we are too weak? Don't look down on us, you bastards?"

Xia Qi, Peijin, and Bebo immediately shouted angrily...

But before they could say anything radical...

The three of them suddenly crawled to the ground together, as if they were suppressed by something heavy, unable to move...

Just listen to a smile and say: "You three brothers should calm down for a while... at least wait until the captain brother finishes what he said..."

Luo, Wolf, and Jim, the old boatman who was paying attention to the situation here, immediately shrank their pupils when they saw this...

They quickly turned around and tried to help the three of them up, but their efforts for a long time had no effect.

Wolfe wiped the cold sweat from his head, turned to Yixiao and said: "Mr. Yixiao, these three boys were the ones who made rude remarks. I am here to apologize to you. But please don't hurt them. After all, they are not bad." Heart..."

Yixiao waved his hands and said with a smile: "Mr. Wolfe, don't worry, they will be fine..."

"Ah! Boss, it's so heavy. I can't get up. What's going on?"

"I feel like I'm about to be squashed..."

Luo watched and listened to the three people's cries of pain, and then looked at the slightly sunken circular pit around the three people.

Wiping the cold sweat from his head, he stood up and looked at Yixiao, and said warily: "What a powerful devil fruit ability. Is Mr. Yixiao going to give us a blow?"

Feeling the hostility radiating from Luo's body, Yixiao said with a naive smile: "Brother Luo said it is too serious, don't be nervous...it's just a small lesson..."

Then he said to Flo: "But now it seems that they are indeed a little weak..."

Flo smiled and said: "They are still very young after all, hahaha. Uncle Yixiao should put away his abilities first... After all, we are still guests..."

He touched his head, smiled awkwardly and said, "Well, haha... I did a little too much..."

As soon as they finished speaking, the three people who were pressed to the ground and unable to move suddenly felt their whole bodies loosen up, and they struggled to get up from the ground in embarrassment...

Luo didn't have time to pay attention to Yixiao and Flo who were singing red and white faces.

He turned around and began to check the physical conditions of Xia Qi and the other three.

I was relieved to find that apart from looking a little embarrassed, the three of them seemed to be fine...

He glared at the three of them fiercely, then turned to Yixiao and said, "Thank you, Mr. Yixiao, for keeping your hand..."

Yixiao replied with a smile, "Brother Luo is worrying too much. He had no intention of hurting these three brothers."

Xia Qi and the three of them looked at this honest-looking blind uncle with some fear. They wanted to say a few harsh words, but thinking of what the boatmen said before...

Suddenly everyone shuddered...

He quickly retreated behind Wolf and Luo, not daring to say anything more.

William laughed loudly when he saw this scene: "Hahaha, how about it! Are you afraid! Hahaha..."

"Ouch~ It hurts"

Before he could continue to taunt, a violent shudder hit him on the head. The pain made him squat on the ground holding his head and screaming.

Brian smiled and said, "Boy, please calm down for me!"

When the pain subsided, William jumped to his feet, turned around and cursed: "How dare you hit me! I will make you look good in the future! Big man! I'm not afraid of you...!"

"Stop talking nonsense, let's talk about this kind of thing later. Kid, hahaha," Brian said with a smile.

After they made such a fuss, the atmosphere of the scene improved a lot.

At this time, Jim also walked by and said: "It's almost done, let's go back to the shipyard first."

"I'll go with you." Brian said, lifting William's collar.

"Bastard Brian! Let me go! I want to stay here and follow Boss Flo!" William shouted.

Looking at Flo and Yixiao, Brian thought for a while and said to Flo: "William, the brat, doesn't have anywhere to go, why not just let him stay here?"

"Oh? Does he have no family?" Yixiao asked curiously.

Wolfe then said: "His parents have been dead for a long time due to a shipwreck, and they have been following his grandfather. However, his grandfather also passed away due to illness not long ago... When Brian came to Luo to treat his grandfather, it was already too late. ...Originally I wanted to take him in, but he was a bit stubborn and refused to follow us... I didn't expect that he would pester you."

"Ah, if that's the case, then just stay here... Hahaha." Flo said while looking at William who was still punching and kicking Brian in mid-air.

"Did you hear that? Big man, my boss asked you to put me down." William said with a grin.

"You kid, please be honest here!" With that, Brian put William down.

Then he said to Flo and the others: "Then we'll leave first."

After breaking free from Brian's big hand, William hid behind Flo and yelled with a grimace: "Let's go! Big man"

Flo nodded and watched them go away with Wolfe and others.

Not long after, Wolfe said, "Let's go, I'll take you to the cabin to rest."

"Then there's Mr. Lauwolf." Yixiao said cheerfully.

"You are Welcome..."

With that said, Wolfe turned around and led Flo and the three of them towards the cabin.

When passing by Xia Qi, Pei Jin and Bei Bo, Yi Xiao smiled at them with his pale eyes narrowed.

Xia Qi and Pei Jin pretended to be calm with awkward smiles, while Bebo lowered his head shyly and muttered: "I'm sorry!"...

It wasn't until Wolff took them away that Xia Qi asked in a low voice: "Is he really blind?"

"Hey, that's right! How did he manage to activate his ability only towards us? He shouldn't be able to see it."

Beibo said weakly: "It should be the powerful Haki of seeing and hearing..."

Xia Qi and Pei Jin looked at Bebo in surprise and said, "Hey, is this the Haki of Knowledge and Information you told us before? Didn't you say that it only exists in places like the New World?"

Luo crossed his arms and said solemnly: "Okay, you guys shut up! They are two very powerful people. If you don't want to cause trouble, keep your mouths clean in the future...otherwise I won't be able to save you."

The three of them looked at each other, as if they had thought of something...

Bebo was the first to ask: "Boss, are you going to join them?"

Luo frowned and said, "Huh? Not sure yet... Let's see again."

Seeing that Luo didn't refuse, the three of them were stunned. Xia Qi shouted in surprise: "Is the boss actually hesitating? We have agreed to form our own pirate group!"

Luo looked at Flo and Yixiao's back, frowned deeply and said, "Things are not as simple as you think... Anyway, let me think about it carefully before talking about it."

As they approached the cabin, Yixiao and Flo raised the corners of their mouths almost at the same time. Apparently, they both heard the conversation between Luo and the others behind them...

Yixiao chuckled and said: "It seems that we will have a few more companions soon."

Flo grinned and said: "But depending on the situation, Luo still has some difficulties that I can't explain clearly..."

After hearing this, old man Wolfe was shocked. He turned around and looked at Flo and Yixiao in surprise, and then looked at Luo Ji and others who were still talking about something more than fifty meters away.

"It seems that the old gentleman knows why Brother Luo is hesitating. Can you tell me?" Yixiao asked softly with a naive smile.

Seeing Wolf's hesitation...

Flo waved his hands and grinned: "Don't be so embarrassed, Mr. Wolfe, we will be here for a long time, you can think about it carefully..."

When Wolf saw this, he seemed to have made up his mind. He grabbed William by the back collar and threw it into the cabin, saying, "Boy, rest here! Don't run around."

Then he closed the door, ignoring William who was cursing inside.

Turning to Flo and Yixiao, he said: "Come with me... My feeling tells me that you are trustworthy people... And I really hope that Luo and the others can follow you, so some things are true I have to tell you two first..."

"Oh~ It seems there is another story in it? Is it related to Luo?" Flo made a thoughtful expression and pondered...

Wolfe led Flo's people towards another wooden house a little further away, and said as he walked: "Brother Flo said yes, go to my house and talk... call Luo together... .”

Turning around, he shouted in the direction of Luo and the others: "Luo! Come here. Xia Qi, Pei Jin, and Bebo. Go and rest!"

Hearing Wolfe's shout, Luo was slightly startled and thought to himself: "Old Wolfe, is he determined to ask me to follow those two people? Tsk! I really made my own decision. But this is fine... .Hesitation is indeed not my character..."

Then he shouted back, "He'll be there soon."

He looked at Xia Qi and the others and said, "Let's go! You should go and rest early. Whether you want to join them or not, we will have an answer soon... But don't worry, no matter what the outcome is, we will go to sea together."

Xia Qi and the other three were shocked after hearing this. They looked at each other and wanted to say something else, but they still said loudly and in unison: "Yes! Boss!"

Luo waved his hands, frowned, put his hands in his pockets and walked slowly towards Wolfe's cabin...

Xia Qi and the others also followed Luo silently and walked towards their respective wooden houses...
