049, you are courting death
Both Sanji and Chopper need to buy necessities. It happens that the direction of the Straw Hat Pirates entering the city is right next to the market area. You can walk directly through the stone bridge, so there is no need to take the cowfish.
The market area mainly buys and sells some daily necessities and food, unlike the commercial area, which buys and sells some high-end luxury goods shipped from various places.
Robin wanted to know the customs of the city, so he chose to go with Sanji and Chopper.
Nami must have wanted to quickly exchange gold jewelry for money, and the commercial area where the exchange office was set up was far away, so naturally he needed a calf fish.
In addition, going to the shipyard in the inner city to find boatmen also has to go by water, so Luffy and Usopp also have to get one.
For safety and convenience, Wayne suggested that Luffy and Usopp go with Nami to exchange the gold jewelry first, and then go to the shipyard together.
After all, with Luffy and the others with them, Nami wouldn't be bullied casually.
At the same time, with Nami there, Luffy and the others are not easily fooled by the shipyard.
As soon as the three heard that it made sense, they complied.
It was the first time Wayne saw such an interesting city, and he wanted to stroll around by himself. After all, although he had heard of a city called Venice in his previous life, he had never had a chance to go there. .
After negotiating properly, the Straw Hat 787 Pirates rented two calf fish, and then acted separately.
"Wow! This is much easier to control than Weiba, rush!
"Hurry up!"
Luffy and Usopp jumped on the calf fish first and rushed out.
"These two idiots."
Nami smiled, and after paying the money, he threw the big bag full of gold jewelry onto the boat, and followed him on a calf fish.
And the others, under the guidance of the owner of the cattle fish shop, went to the market area.
And at this moment, Going Merry was targeted.
A pirate group with three medium-sized ships surrounded Going Merry on three sides and blocked all escape routes.
Then a one-eyed pirate stood at the bow and shouted.
"Listen to the people on the boat, hand over all the valuables, and I can spare your life, otherwise, I will let you and the boat sink to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish."
Zoro, who was taking a nap on the edge of the deck, heard the cry and stood up frowning.
"Where are the bastards disturbing my sleep, are you trying to kill me?"
The one-eyed pirate didn't expect that the other party would dare to retort, and just when he wanted to speak ruthlessly, a younger brother beside him suddenly screamed.
"Old... boss, no, this guy is the deputy captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, Zoro.
"What? That bounty hunter?"
"Yes, he still has three knives hanging on his waist, absolutely can't be wrong.
The younger brother pointed to Solo and confirmed.
"Not good, go back! 35
The one-eyed pirate was dumbfounded in an instant, turned his head and instructed his men to drive the ship away.
"Hey hey, I've already come here, do you still want to leave so easily? Well, I've been practicing the knife for so long, so it's time to move my hands and feet. 99
Zoro jumped into the air and unsheathed three swords.
One in the left hand, one in the right, and one in the mouth.
"Three knives, one hundred and eighty troubles."
Zoro twisted his body and spun rapidly in the air, and the blade wind swept toward the three pirate ships at the same time.
"Bang bang bang!
With three consecutive sounds, the pirate ship stopped at the same time.
The pirate ship that was broken in two sank into the sea without a doubt, and the pirates on the ship were crying.
The pirates who were lucky enough to escape did not dare to approach Going Merry, and only dared to swim far away before they landed quietly.
But the one-eyed pirate has disappeared.
Seeing that their boss was dead and the others didn't dare to think about Going Merry anymore, Zoro ignored them and went back to the deck to take a nap.
Following the instructions of the owner of the beef fish shop, Luffy and the others came to a gate.
This is the only way to the inner city.
Of course, it is also possible to go up from the main road, but basically only large boats are allowed to pass there. If it is not necessary, small boats are not allowed to pass.
(abfh) This is to avoid the rampage of the boat, which hinders the flow of traffic.
After all, even if the main road is wider, it is only a passage in the city, far from being as vast as the sea. Once it becomes congested, it will become very troublesome to clear it.
After several large ship jam incidents before, the Water Capital formulated this rule.
In fact, this is also to protect the boat.
Otherwise, those big boats going in and out will be unhappy, and they will directly hit your boat, and the boat will not be destroyed.
After entering the floodgates, Luffy and the others were extremely excited, because they had an unprecedented experience.
When the gate was closed, water poured into the surrounding area, and soon the water rose, and they were sent to another gate at a high place.
Just like an elevator.
However, this elevator uses the buoyancy of water.
"It's amazing, the person who designed this must be a genius, and Usopp, who likes to tinker with a little invention, is fascinated. 99
"Yeah, I'll also invite such a powerful boatman to pass it on."
Luffy was full of anticipation.
"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. People with such abilities may be obsessed with research, and they have to consume a lot of materials every day. We may not be able to support them, and there is no way to provide such research conditions at sea on Going Merry.
Nami poured a basin of cold water.
But what she said was not without reason, Luffy thought it was true.
"Then find someone who isn't as good as him, as long as it can make Going Merry fly."
"That's even more nonsense!""
Nami slapped Luffy almost into the river with an angry slap.
"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. Please accompany me to exchange gold jewelry for Bailey, and then we will go to the shipyard to find a repairman. I don't care what kind of boatman you like."
Nami unhappily increased the speed of the boat.
"But……
"To shut up!
"Oh. 35
Luffy still wanted to distinguish two sentences, but Nami slammed it back and choked back.
"Nami is scary!"
Usopp was so focused on sailing that he didn't dare to take a breath.
Soon, they came to the exchange office.
Picking up the big bag, Nami walked into the exchange, escorted by Luffy and Usopp.
Entering the room, Nami saw that there were no guests, so he threw the big bag on the table, and put his legs on the table on the chair, posing as a big sister's head.
"Show me, how much is the contents of the bag worth?"
The clerk at the exchange office who was dozing off was immediately shocked by Nami's aura, got up quickly, and opened the bag.
As a result, he was almost blinded by the glittering jewels in the bag.
After being stunned for a long time, the clerk squeezed out a sentence.
"I'm sorry, these things are too valuable, I can't be the master."
