[One Piece]Walking with the Sea

Because I know that dwelling on the past will worry important people, I choose not to mention it again.

Rayleigh did know a way to return to the Grand Line without crossing the Red Continent. Although this method could not be used on large ships, it was very suitable for small boats and the risk was extremely low.

So Rayleigh took Vivian and Xiaoba to the second half of the Grand Route without any effort, and it happened to be not too far from the Chambord Islands, so he didn't stop and continued towards the Chambord Islands.

After arriving on the island, Reilly led the two of them towards a remote place. After walking for a few minutes, they came to a house that was not too big. He asked the two of them to wait where they were while he went up. Knocked on the door before.

"Who?"

A voice of inquiry came from inside, "It's me, Rayleigh." Rayleigh responded in a low voice.

The next second, the door creaked open, and a beautiful woman with ear-length hair came out. She looked at Raleigh in disbelief, as if she didn't expect him to appear here: "It's you, Raleigh, I didn’t expect you to come to me.”

Lei Li smiled and said: "Long time no see, Xia Qi." Then he called Vivian and the others up, then pointed at Vivian and said to her: "I have no place to go now, so I came to you to take care of me. This is Vivian."

When Xia Qi heard this, she looked at Vivian. Vivian hid behind Lei Li and timidly stretched out her head to look at this beautiful big sister. Xia Qi took out a pack of cigarettes, took one out and put it in her mouth. Inside, she took out a lighter again and was about to light it when she saw the person hiding behind Raleigh. After thinking about it, she put the lighter back into her pocket. She raised her eyebrows at Raleigh and her tone was unclear whether she was angry or angry. Disgusted: "You're still so rude." Just after he finished speaking, he saw another fish-man child next to him and couldn't help but be surprised, "Hey, why is there a fish-man child following you?"

"Well, his name is Xiaoba. When Vivian and I were in trouble at sea, he saved us!" Lei Li told Xia Qi about Xiaoba.

Although Hachi is a fishman, surprisingly he seems to be very unafraid of humans. He took a step forward, raised his arms and said the mantra he has always said: "My name is Hachi, and I love to eat takoyaki! "

Xia Qi smiled and touched his head, then motioned for Lei Li and the others to enter the room.

After entering, Xia Qi brought Lei Li a large glass of wine, and then gave Vivian and Xiao Ba a glass of juice each.

"Thank you." Vivian took the juice and took a small sip. The next second her eyes lit up: "It tastes good!" It tasted better than any juice she had ever drunk before.

Seeing her sparkling eyes, Xia Qi couldn't help but laugh: "It tastes good, it's a specialty of Amazon, and ordinary people can't drink it."

As she said that, she looked at Rayleigh teasingly: "What? You can't survive in the Roger Pirates, so you brought your 'illegitimate daughter' to me?!"

Rayleigh took a swig of wine. When he heard these words, he put down the glass calmly, took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, "It's not that he can't survive, but that the Roger Pirates have been disbanded..." When the Roger Pirates were disbanded, he deliberately lowered his voice, "But 'illegitimate daughter' or something like that, although I do treat Vivian as my daughter, these words cannot let her Hear it." After all, Rayleigh, who knew her well, knew that if Vivian, who understood the meaning of these words, heard it, she might think of Roger not wanting her or something.

Vivian may have never met or known Xia Qi, but Xia Qi still knows a little about Vivian. Of course, she also knows that Vivian is just a partner of the Roger Pirates, not anyone's daughter, but she just wants to It was just a joke to make a joke on Rayleigh, but if he didn't mean to choke Rayleigh, I don't know. Although he was surprised that the Roger Pirates had disbanded, he accepted it after a while.

"So, Vivian and I are leaving it to you!"

Xia Qi glared at him angrily, wondering how this guy could become so thick-skinned now, but she didn't say anything to refuse, so Lei Li and Vivian successfully got a place to live!

After Xiaoba had a meal at Xia Qi's place, Rayleigh sent him back to Fish-Man Island. Vivian didn't want to be alone, even with Xia Qi accompanying him, so she went with him to send Xiaoba away. eight.

Xia Qi opened a small bar in Xiangbodi, but secretly her place was actually a place for intelligence collection. Although the house was not big, it could still accommodate three people. She packed up two houses and used them as a mine. For Leigh and Vivian's rooms, of course, money was definitely needed for new beds and cabinets, so Bailey, who was brought off the ship by Leigh, handed over more than half of it.

Half a month after moving in, Vivian finally returned to her lively self on the boat, which made Reilly very happy. Xia Qi and Vivian talked a lot about the Chambord Islands, but mainly about the geographical distribution of the islands. Moreover, both Xia Qi and Lei Li specifically told Vivian not to go to No. 1 and Area 16, and if you want to go elsewhere, you must ask one of them to accompany you. Although Vivian didn't know why, he nodded obediently and said that he remembered it.

Xia Qi's bar is located in area 13. From time to time, she will encounter pirates who can't pay for drinks or make trouble, but without exception, Xia Qi will kick them out. Rayleigh will occasionally take action, but most of the time Xia Qi will She can handle them all alone, and she is incredibly strong.

In addition, Xiaoba often comes to play with Lei Li or Vivian. Vivian still has a very high opinion of her savior.

Vivian and Xiaoba like to go to Soap Bubble Park to play because they are worried that they need an adult to accompany them. However, Xia Qi has to watch the bar, so this job falls on Lei Li most of the time. So the two of them were playing happily in front, and Rayleigh slowly followed behind with a bottle of wine. Since Xiaoba is a fish-man and cannot let humans discover this, he has to ask Xia Qi to disguise him every time before he is allowed to play with Vivian.

It's not like no one had any ideas about Vivian and Xiaoba, but these people were discovered by Rayleigh and dealt with secretly, without letting the two children who were having fun in front of them notice at all.

The place that Vivian dislikes very much is Area 1. Although she doesn’t know what that place is for, she definitely doesn’t want to go near that place even without Xia Qi and Lei Li’s warning, because that place always There will be many, many sounds, just like the sounds she heard when she was in the laboratory.

Those sounds frightened her and reminded her of things she always wanted to forget, so she always stayed far away from that place.

After staying in the Shampoo Islands for more than two months, Xiaoba and Vivian also knew a lot of things, including the traffickers on the island, and also knew how to avoid the traffickers, so Lei Li could relax a little and occasionally When the two of them go out to play, he no longer needs to follow them.

On this day, since Xiao Ha did not come to the Shampoo Islands, Vivian, who was really bored after training, ran out of Xia Qi's rip-off bar, and because she had never encountered any danger in the past, she felt that there was no need to disturb her. Xia Qi and Lei Li only needed to pay attention to themselves, so they ran to the Soap Bubble Park alone without informing them.

Rayleigh would give Vivian some pocket money every week, and Xia Qi would occasionally give it to her, so as long as she didn’t spend money lavishly, Vivian would even have some money left over every week, and based on her experience in Roger Pirates As the financial manager of the team, she didn’t have much desire to spend money. Apart from occasionally buying marshmallows or ice cream, or treating Xiaoba to a meal when he came to play, she had no place to spend money, so she All the money I couldn’t use was saved.

Vivian bought a colorful marshmallow and walked around the street while licking it.

"Let's take a look at the beautiful wine bar on Teteyaco Island. This is the most popular wine on Teteyaco Island, the land of fine wines. The quantity is rare. If you miss it, you won't have it——"

liquor? Vivian stopped and looked at the small stall next to her. There were indeed several bottles of wine on it, and looking through the transparent glass, the color of the wine seemed to be quite delicious.

Although Vivian didn't drink, she suddenly remembered that Reilly had said distressedly a few days ago that his alcohol was about to bottom out. Thinking of this, Vivian finished the marshmallow in her hand in two or three mouthfuls, and then stepped forward: "Excuse me, how much does this wine cost?"

When the stall owner heard this, he knew that business was coming, and he immediately smiled and said: "Hello, beautiful lady, the wine is a thousand pele a bottle~"

To be honest, a bottle of 1,000 Baileys can be regarded as a very high price and even a bit outrageous. The boss probably understood this. After talking about the price, he quickly added: "Because this is the farthest place from the Chambord Islands. It is a specialty of Yaco Island, and this kind of wine is difficult to preserve for a long time, so it is very labor-intensive to transport it here. Generally, this kind of wine can only be drunk on Tet Yaco Island.”

The implication is that this price is definitely not bad!

Vivian thought for a while, and one thousand Baileys was indeed a bit expensive. It meant that she had to spend all the Baileys she had saved during this period to buy this bottle of wine, but after thinking about it, when Mr. Reilly drank the fine wine With a smile on her face, Vivian still firmly took out all the Baileys from her close-fitting small wallet and handed them to the boss.

"Okay, here you go!" The boss took the money and counted it. When he saw that the number was correct, he took out a bottle of wine and handed it to Vivian's hand. "Welcome, guest, to visit us next time!"

Vivian carefully put the wine into his pocket, patted his pocket, then turned and walked towards Area 13.

While passing by an alley, she suddenly smelled a sweet smell, but Vivian didn't like the smell very much. She frowned and quickened her pace, wanting to stay away from the area where the smell was spreading, but for some reason, Vivian An suddenly felt that the scenery in front of him was a little distorted.

Is it too hot?

Just when Vivian was thinking this, her eyes suddenly fell into darkness. The next second she felt that she was being picked up by someone. She immediately realized that something was wrong and quickly struggled to launch an attack, but the person who kidnapped her seemed to be Professionally, after noticing her struggle, he knocked her unconscious with a sharp blade of his hand.

Rayleigh's protection and his unwillingness to let Vivian come into contact with the darkness still hurt her.

In the past, even if Rayleigh was not with him, he always turned on the domineering spirit and paid attention to Vivian's safety. Vivian didn't tell Xia Qi and Lei Li about this trip, so Lei Li didn't know about it.

If it were an ordinary human trafficker, Vivian could easily deal with it, but the human traffickers in the Shampoo Islands were different. The methods they used, from tracking to abduction to arrest, were all very professional, even if they were caught midway. I found that many people would appear to stop me. Therefore, human traffickers in the Shampoo Islands rarely fail unless they hit the iron plate.

"This girl looks very good. Those people will definitely like her."

"Yes, especially those eyes. I'd say even the Celestial Dragons would want to collect them."

"Keep your voice down! You are talking about the sky...those adults, are you desperate for your life?!"

The two traffickers thought they were talking very carefully, but little did they know that there was someone who had heard them completely.
