Pirate Merchant

Well, we are fruit power users, but you brought me to the deep sea? Aren't you afraid that if your fruit power is eliminated by the sea water, we will both drown?

When he dived down the current from the Chambord Islands to the deep sea area of ​​about 500 meters, Anilu swallowed his saliva and looked worriedly at Mu Qian who was sitting on the Proverbs deck enjoying his life, and asked him questioningly.

Please, my fruit's ability is not to create ice, but to lower the temperature. Seawater cannot invalidate the ice I create, but I can spread my ability on the seabed. If you don't understand the characteristics of 'ice', You probably won’t be able to defeat me in this life.”

Mu Qian was leisurely sipping the specialty wine he had just bought in the Chambord Islands, looking as if he was on vacation.

Isn't the characteristic of ice just that it is cold and hard? I have long been familiar with it.

Enelu sneered at Mu Qian.

Then you still need to be more familiar with it. The most important characteristic of ice is 'condensation'. In addition to being cold and hard, it also has the characteristic of turning liquid into solid. This characteristic allows me to be perfect even in the deep sea. Using my abilities, the ice I create is much safer than coating.

Mu Qian explained the characteristics of his abilities to Enelu with a hint of pride.

Wouldn't it be great if we just flew through the air? It would be safer and more convenient.

Enelu, who hated operating under the sea, still complained uneasily to Mu Qian.

That's what I planned at the beginning, but because I didn't know whether flying over Mariejoia would offend the 'good guys', and the detour time was too slow, I chose to enter from the bottom of the sea, but we Won’t stay on Fish-Man Island.”

Mu Qian stood up from the beach chair as if he felt something.

Hoho, do you have a big toy?

When Mu Qian stood up suddenly, Enel also turned his head and looked in the direction of the underwater waterfall where a sea monster was entrenched.

I'm not here to pretend to be a Jiajiajiu. Get out of here, or I'll make it into a charcoal-grilled octopus.

The ice crystals in front of Mu Qian gradually became transparent as he walked to the edge of the Proverbs deck. He put away his smile and looked at the mountain-like huge octopus indifferently and ordered.

?!

The fleeting murderous intention caused the octopus to shrink suddenly, and quickly ran away with a piercing strange howl as if it had been severely injured.

You are really kind. You will spare the life of any creature that shows murderous intent towards you.

Enelu melted the golden stick he had just made back onto the deck and complained about Mu Qian who just drove away the enemy.

I'm not a murderer who likes killing. Those who can be driven away are at least sensible. Those who can't be driven away will definitely regret not escaping in front of me earlier. Besides, only in the presence of a truly strong person can I feel excited. .”

Mu Qian shook his head and answered Enel who complained about him.

Like the 'strongest man' you mentioned before? Only he can make you really serious?

Enelu crossed his arms over his chest, his tone full of disdain.

Then you really think highly of me. I'm not qualified to be serious with him. I'm still too weak now.

Mu Qian shook his head and replied with regret. He knew that his current weight was not enough.

Too weak? So weak that those giant sea monsters surround you as if they are welcoming the king? The 'feeling' you are exuding now makes me extremely disgusted.

As the ice ball wrapped with the motto continued to fall, Enilu, who captured the huge vital signs around him through his heart net, narrowed his eyes and commented on Mu Qian's domineering behavior at this time.

I'm really sorry to disgust you, but I hate running into trouble when everything is going smoothly, so if you don't like it, you can tolerate it a little bit. And, you should become more familiar with this 'feeling', and you will encounter more in the future.

Mu Qian looked at the various giant sea monsters that were entrenched obediently around the back of the hockey puck. He looked at the way they were supposed to be fighting each other and preying on each other, coexisting peacefully as his own bodyguards, and he sincerely lamented the importance of his own strength.

We finally reached the bottom of the deep sea area. The sunshine here is really good. Okay, you all should leave.

As the ice ball was illuminated by the sun, Mu Qian turned around and gave orders to the Neptune-like creature that had been following behind.

It's such a weird place. It's even weirder than Sky Island. My opinion remains the same. I hate it here.

Enelu commented on his impression of Fish-Man Island with great stubbornness.

I have a pretty good impression of this place, so we won't go in and just go around.

Mu Qian raised his hand slightly, evoked the warm current, and then floated towards the new world on the warm current.

Mu Qian, whose main purpose this time was not the Fish-Man Island, controlled the warm current and quickly followed the warm current into the new world. As soon as he entered the new world, he asked Enel to control the maxim to lift into the sky.

Huh~ I finally left the sea. Damn it, being in the sea is so depressing.

After Proverbs flew high into the sky, Aniru breathed a sigh of relief. He relied heavily on the fruit's ability and was instinctively afraid of the sea that would prevent him from using his ability.

Haha, you still need to practice more. Have you sensed the strong person somewhere in your heart network? Although I can see the temperature, I can't tell the strength from the weak.

Mu Qian stretched himself, yawned and said to Enilu.

You move closer to a warm place, and I will tell you the strength and weakness.

Enelu, who was despised by Mu Qian, sneered and replied to Mu Qian.

As Enel and Mu Qian searched, a huge pirate ship appeared below the proverb, and Enel swore that there was a strong person on board.

This ship? We won't go down. I don't want to have any contact with the pirates on it.

Mu Qian looked at the Don Quixote family logo on the pirate ship below, pondered for a while, and then explained to Eniro.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, a cannonball accurately hit the bottom of Proverbs' ship with a whistling sound.

Although you don't want to fight with the other party, they seem to be very hostile to you. I can deal with them for you very quickly, without even a second.

As the smoke from the explosion dissipated, the ice crystals at the bottom of the Proverbs ship where it had just been shelled slowly dissipated, and Anilu showed an extremely cruel smile and asked Mu Qian.

Really? Although I don't want to have any contact with them yet, but it's not impossible for you to have a little contact with them.

Mu Qian looked at the fat man below who was preparing to take off, shrugged his shoulders and replied to Eniro who had just suppressed his anger at the bottom of the sea.

As soon as Mu Qian gave the permission to attack, a sky-shattering thunder appeared out of thin air and struck the giant ship. Buffalo, who had just taken off, and Baby5, who had jumped on his back, were charred black by the lightning and fell to the sea.

The giant ship under their feet was blasted into two pieces by thunder and ignited into flames. However, in the flames that ignited the entire ship, not a single pirate was able to escape. They were all struck unconscious by the thunder and then sank with the burning broken ship. Into the bottom of the sea.

The sky is the playground of the gods, and mortals are not allowed to enter.

With his feet in the air next to the Proverbs, Enel looked down at the rapidly sinking pirate ship. After making sure that the two guys who wanted to fly into the air fell into the water, he walked back to the Proverbs with satisfaction.

Have you calmed down? Let's go find Whitebeard.

After Anilu returned to the Proverbs, Mu Qian, who had been waiting on the bridge for a long time, turned the rudder to let the Proverbs move towards the next heat source.

As Proverbs left, bubbles arose on the calm sea surface, and then a huge ice floe emerged from the sea, and what was carried on the ice floe was Buffalo and baby 5 who were stunned by Eniro lightning.

That's right this time. I didn't expect that we actually had to go through a big circle to find Whitebeard. Enelu is about to fall.

After a whole day of searching, we finally found the Whitebeard Pirates' giant white whale-like ship at noon the next day.

As the golden motto fell into the sea under the sun, the crew of the Whitebeard Pirates also stood on their shoulders and talked about the golden spaceship very curiously.

Huh, even here you can feel the aura that makes your chest feel tight. Haha, Enelu, your expression is ugly.

Mu Qian patted Taotie, who had his tail between his legs, to comfort him who was afraid of someone on the opposite boat, and teased Enelu, who had a livid and serious expression.

Let's go, the purpose of our trip is not just to come and see.

As Proverbs docked with the Moby-Dick, Mu Qian stepped on the ice crystal stairs and walked towards the deck of the Moby-Dick, which was much taller than Proverbs.

Hello, distinguished Mr. Whitebeard Edward Newgate, my name is Mu Qian, I am a businessman, nice to meet you.

After taking Enel and Taotie onto the spacious deck of the Moby Dick, Mu Qian walked up to Whitebeard with a smile amidst the surprised expression of the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, bowed slightly, and said On the chair, there were intravenous needles inserted all over his body and an oxygen tube inserted into his nose, but he seemed to be unable to see the top of the mountain. The huge white beard expressed his respect for him.

Businessman? Gu la la la~ Why are merchants looking for pirates? Do they want to 'buy murderers and kill people'?

Whitebeard touched his chin and looked at Mu Qian and Enilu as if he was very happy, his eyes full of admiration for the young people.

Of course not. I am a businessman. What I like most is peace, and what I dislike the most is fighting. I came here mainly because I had a good conversation with Ace in the Alabasta Kingdom tavern, and I learned from him. I heard all kinds of stories about you, Mr. Newgate, so I came here specifically to make friends with you.”

Mu Qian patted the head of Taotie next to him, and Taotie with his tail between his legs opened his mouth very sensibly and spit out cans after cans of wine with completely different packaging.

This is the fine wine I have collected from various places. No one else can collect such a complete collection of fine wine.

After Taotie spit out all the wine cans, Mu Qian pointed at the wine and proudly said to Whitebeard.

Is this Beihai wine?

Whitebeard picked up a wine can closest to him, opened the wax seal and smelled the rich aroma of wine and said with joy.

Gu la la la~ Little devil, tell me, what do you want from me?

Whitebeard, who was not afraid of Mu Qian's poison at all, raised his head and drank a can of wine in one breath before asking Mu Qian with a cheerful smile. The squad captains around him were not surprised at all by Whitebeard's cheerful behavior.

I'm just a businessman, so what I hope to get is the right to operate within your sphere of influence, Mr. Newgate. Of course, I will hand over a portion of the trade volume every month as a 'contract fee' for cooperation.

Mu Qian breathed a sigh of relief and asked Whitebeard what he needed.

You want to do business in our sphere of influence? As long as you can do serious business as before, of course I can agree to it.

Whitebeard laughed heartily and agreed to Mu Qian's request. His words also let Mu Qian get the information that Whitebeard knew him very well.

Thank you very much for your permission, but I will visit Ace's execution as a navy guest later.

Mu Qian looked at the white beard who agreed to his request and picked up another can of fine wine to open the wax seal, raised his head and gurgled, and said something that stopped all his movements.

As long as you quietly watch the battle as a guest and don't attack us, then the agreement between you and me will still be valid.

White Beard put the wine jar in his hand, and replied to Muqian with his expression covered by shadows.

Sorry, I will attack you under the command of the navy, and I will not hold back. I don't like lies and deceit, so I will be your enemy.

Mu Qian replied to White Beard with an extremely serious expression, and the air around him was extremely distorted. Facing the pressure of White Beard's face slapping his face, he had to muster all his energy to resist him.

Hey! Bastard! You want to take advantage of us again! You want to attack us?! Do you really think we are easy to talk to?!

Marco, who had been silent all this time, pointed at Mu Qian angrily and questioned him with 'no shame'.

Marco, you step back.

When Marco walked towards Mu Qian angrily, White Beard suddenly stopped him.

Father! Get this opportunistic bastard out!

Marco stopped under White Beard's order, but still glared at Mu Qian angrily, and begged White Beard for his life loudly.

Gu la la la ~ he has no intention of fighting us, he is a 'businessman', if the businessman does not take advantage of opportunism, then it is worthy of suspicion.

The cloud on the white beard's face was swept away and he broke out into a hearty laugh, then raised his head again and drank the fine wine in his hand.

You have a lot of backbone, kid. If you want to take everything in black and white, you will be wiped out by those bastards in the navy if you are too weak.

White Beard crushed the wine can in his hand, yanked off the needle of the infusion tube on his body, pulled out the oxygen tube on his nose, and slowly stood up.

Although I recognize your courage and I am satisfied with your integrity! But I am very displeased with your tone! Now I have changed my mind! If you don't die! Then the agreement remains the same!

The 6.6-meter-tall white beard laughed arrogantly and clenched his fists to look at the kid in front of him until he was knee-high.

The fist wrapped in white brilliance slammed into his side amidst loud laughter. Under the visual impact like a cracked lens, Mu Qian felt that all the cells in his body were trembling with that force.

And Ai Nilu, who was standing beside Mu Qian, had already turned into lightning to avoid White Beard Wushuang's attack.
