Pirates: The Steady and Responsible Person in the Straw Hats

"The price has increased again?"

Nami looked at the news bird in front of her with a rather unhappy look, "Are you selling it too expensively?"

News Bird looked aggrieved. You must know that it is just a newspaper delivery boy, and it does not set the price of newspapers. In the past, the humans we met would just buy the newspapers without saying a word, but this human in front of him was plucking. Sou Sou, you have to bargain for a newspaper.

Although Nami was very reluctant, she also knew that there was no point in complaining to it, and she did not continue to embarrass it. She took out a coin and put it into the bag hanging on Newsbird's body.

Seeing that the business of the village was finally over, the news bird quickly spread its wings and flew into the sky as fast as it could escape.

He swore he would never come to the ship again to sell newspapers and let the other guys go.

Sitting cross-legged on the deck, Usopp was tinkering with his new invention, "It's just one or two newspapers, that's all."

"But one or two newspapers a day is too expensive."

Nami spread her hands, she didn't want to do this, mainly because their pirate group was really poor. After all, the Straw Hats never robbed homes, they were only responsible for taking risks. Even the current expenses were all based on her 'stolen' shells. Supported by Lee, even the 'reliable' Yuri is a pauper.

"Don't you no longer need to save money to buy back the village from the evil dragon?" Usopp carefully poured the red liquid from the bottle into another bottle, and turned his head: "You are still so fussy about money... .”

"What are you talking about? It's because I solved that matter" Nami pointed at him and said angrily: "That's why I have to save money for myself this time. I don't want to be a poor pirate who has no money to dress up. !”

Nami opened her hands and smiled as she spoke, seeming to think of herself wearing gold and silver and dressing up as various aristocratic ladies in the future.

"Hey, hey, stop arguing, I'm developing a new special attack, Chili Star."

Usopp said, slowly pouring the last drop of chili oil into the experimental results.

suddenly

A figure fell from the sky and knocked him down, and the drop of chili oil just hit his eyes.

......

"Ah ah ah, my eyes!!! Water, give me water to wash my eyes quickly!!!"

The fallen figure was none other than Luffy, who wanted to steal the fruit of the orange tree planted on the ship. He glared resentfully at Sanji, who kicked him away: "What? What does it matter if you just eat one?"

Sanji crossed his arms and glared at him, "This is Miss Nami's orange grove, I will never let you touch it."

After saying that, he clasped his hands and looked at Nami flatteringly, hoping to get a compliment: "Nami-san, your guard against love is foolproof!"

Nami, who was looking at the newspaper, gave a satisfied greeting.

"Then why can he eat it?" Luffy pointed unwillingly. He had just finished training, his arms were sweating profusely, and he was ready to catch a big fish to replenish the meat on the boat that was about to bottom out.

As for the supplies that were replenished from Nami’s hometown not long ago?

Except for the orange grove which was well preserved, most of the meat was basically eaten by Luffy.

Thinking that I need to replenish a lot of blood energy for training, but have to go on a diet due to lack of meat supplies, I feel unhappy.

Luffy, that bastard, eats so much every day.

Yuri turned his head and looked at Luffy provocatively. Under the longing gaze of the other person, he slowly put the last bite of fruit pulp into his mouth.

"It's so sweet~"

"Ahhh, why can't I eat it?"

"Asshole, if I let you eat it, will there be any left in the orange field?"

Yuri looked at Luffy, who was rolling around and acting like a child having a tantrum. With his revengeful spirit satisfied, he was in a great mood, holding his stomach and laughing.

At this time, two reward flyers slipped from the interlayer of the newspaper that Nami was reading and fell onto the ship's deck.

Seeing this scene, everyone except Zoro, who was sleeping in, looked down curiously.

Naval headquarters temporary conference room

A group of naval generals wearing navy capes, all with the rank of Commodore and Rear Admiral of the Naval Headquarters, looked serious and sat on the futon with their arms folded upright.

As for generals above major general, they will not appear here. After all, the goal discussed at this time is not worth their time to come here.

The Navy's 'Meeting King' Brannew stood on the podium with his hands behind his back, and five bounty orders were hung on the information board behind him.

A naval admiral with the rank of rear admiral, who was chewing a cigar, pondered: "So at least their group is no longer something that the branch can deal with, right?"

'Meeting King' Brannew nodded seriously, "Yes, ever since they defeated the Marine branch colonel 'Axeman' Monka before they formed the pirate group, their momentum has been rising and it is simply unstoppable."

"Bucky the Clown has a reward of fifteen million Baileys."

"The leader of the pirate fleet, 'Admiral' Creek, has a bounty of 17 million."

"The fish-man pirate group's 'Sawtooth' evil dragon has a bounty of 20 million."

When Brannew said this, his tone was a little heavy, and he continued: "There are also loners who were once members of the 'Sun Pirates', and after they were disbanded, they set off on the Grand Route alone."

"The electric eel man 'Hei Jiao' Xizhen has a reward of 55 million."

The first three were fine, but after the last name was said, the expressions of many generals present changed.

You must know that this guy is a highly wanted criminal in the Grand Line, not to mention that he is still a member of the original Sun Pirates and the younger brother of the current "Shichibukai" Jinbei. Although they have parted ways, he is still a compatriot of the fishmen.

Moreover, this guy was killed, unlike Aaron, who was arrested and taken back to the Navy branch to be imprisoned while still surviving.

The faces of the generals darkened when they thought of the fish-man whom Dahai called 'Sea Man'.

Although Brannew was a little shocked that this group of newcomers could actually kill the veterans of the Grand Line, he was still very serious about his work. He continued: "In the East China Sea, where there are generally three million bounties, they all have more than ten million. 'Big pirate'."

"But they all fell into the hands of the Straw Hat Pirates, so after prediction and evaluation, we decided to set their bounty amount to..."

Sirob Village

"Miss, Miss!"

With a face full of joy, Butler Meili ran to Keya who was reading a medical book. He raised the two reward notices in his hand and pointed at the young man with a silly smile on his face and open his palms and five fingers facing the camera.

"Please look at this!"

After Keya glanced at the giggling young man on the reward list, his eyes involuntarily drifted to the back of a figure on the lower left, and stood up from the chair with a look of surprise: "Usopp!"

Merry looked confused, wasn't it Luffy?

After turning around the bounty order and taking a closer look, I realized that there was a figure with only a back behind Luffy. Judging from the curly hair and body decoration, it was Usopp.

"Mr. Usopp is also moving towards his dream."

-------

Naval branch

Holding a broom, Kerby, who has become a Navy handyman, looked at a reward notice on the wall, his face full of joy.

"Luffy, you are finally moving towards your dream."

Kirby thought about what Luffy once said to him.

"My name is Luffy, and I am the man who will become the One Piece."

The boy wearing a straw hat shouted his ideals with a confident smile.

Sea restaurant ‘Bharati’

On the central pillar of the elegant restaurant, there was a reward notice posted unexpectedly. On it was a young man with his fingers spread out and giggling.

A small border island.

The town that was once reduced to ruins by Bucky the Clown's cannon has now begun to gradually return to its once prosperous appearance.

"Mrs. Alisa, look, brother Yuri."

A girl with ash-colored hair and two braids hanging down her shoulders held up the reward list in her hand with a happy face and looked at the huge figure who was wiping the dining table.

"Humph, I already knew it without you having to tell me." Alyssa said, covering her pockmarked face with her hands, looking shy: "As expected of the man I like, Yuri must be doing this for the sake of our happy life in the future. He went out to make a fortune, and then came back to marry me gloriously."

Xiaoya was sweating and looking at Alyssa who was in lust again, a little speechless.

Meili

"Hehehe...hahahahaha" Luffy held up his reward order and smiled from ear to ear.

Usopp looked at the amount of money on it and said in disbelief: "Life or death... 45 million beli..."

This is too exaggerated. The reward amount is twice that of the evil dragon.

"There are 45 million, hahahahahaha" Luffy could no longer suppress the joy in his heart and kept laughing proudly.

"Look, the whole world has seen my heroic appearance." Usopp pointed at the inconspicuous back figure in the corner on Luffy's bounty order.

"What, only this long-nosed Pu was posted and not me?" Sanji heard this and ran forward unwillingly to look at the pictures above.

Usopp stood beside him with his arms crossed and a look on his face.

"Where are you? I didn't see you." Sanji glanced for a long time and couldn't find the long-nosed head.

Usopp on the side quickly pointed his finger at a figure in the corner with only the back of his head exposed.

"Tch, it's just the back of the head. What's there to be proud of?" Sanji knelt down and drew circles aggrievedly, with an unhappy look on his face.

You obviously care about it, right?

Yuri looked back at him and complained uncontrollably in his heart.

However, Usopp didn't care. After all, he had a back of his head, and this cook didn't even have a name.

"Don't be sad. When you become a big shot, you will be posted even if you are not the captain."

"Really?" Upon hearing this, Sanji had a look of anticipation on his face.

Nami looked speechlessly at Sanji and Usopp who were dancing side by side. She raised another bounty ticket in her hand, pointed at it and said, "There is another one, Yuri's."

kindness?

Yuri?

The three people who were laughing and playing quickly looked over with their faces squeezed.

I saw Yuri on top of the reward notice, pushing his bangs blown away by the sea breeze onto his head with his hands, looking into the distance with deep eyes.

"Four...forty million!!!"

Usopp shouted in shock, and this movement also attracted Yuri, who was still worried about food, and Zoro, who was sleeping soundly.

Yuri was carrying a fishing rod in one hand and an iron bucket with bait in the other. He stepped forward curiously and looked at his reward order.

"I'm actually being rewarded too?"

Is it because of the fish-man who can discharge electricity?

By the way, wasn't this fishman defeated by Luffy, and I actually got a share of the pie?

Moreover, Luffy's bounty is different from that in the original work, with a total difference of fifteen million.

Did he receive a bounty because he had a one-on-one battle with Xizhen? Although he lost the battle, he still beat the fish-man to a semi-crippling state.

Yuri, who was offered a bounty, had a slightly subtle expression on his face. He actually had a bounty of 40 million for the first time. This must be a real 'big pirate' in a small place like the East China Sea, right?

Do you want to retire early? After all, with this reward order, you can dominate the East China Sea, right?

Yuri rubbed his chin and couldn't help but think of some scenes of wine ponds, meat forests, and surrounded by beautiful people.

Beautiful.
