Chapter 107: The Golden Crown (Part II)

"What is this?" When Usopp found out that the treasure chest was not a treasure, but an old lady, Usopp was stunned for a moment and then quickly stuffed her back into the treasure chest and tied it with a rope. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's the same as when I first met William!" Seeing someone hiding in the treasure chest, Luffy remembered the first time he met William, who was also hiding in the treasure chest at that time, and was fished up by him. At that time, he thought that there would be delicious meat in the treasure chest, but it turned out that the hungry yellow-faced and skinny William was hiding inside.

"That's right!" Nami said, looking at the treasure chest with some disappointment. She was in the same mood when she first saw William, thinking that there would be treasure in the treasure chest on Yarrita's pirate ship, but it turned out to be a person hiding inside, which was a heavy blow for a money fan like her.

"Throw it away!" Hearing Luffy and Nami's conversation, William directly proposed. Because after the Devil Fruit's ability was awakened, he was affected by the demonic nature of the Demon Dragon, and William was occasionally not very kind to people other than his companions. Although the awakening of the fruit ability gave him an amazing ability to resist attacks and recover from attacks, William's strength is not as good as before he landed on the Sky Island in order to suppress the demonic nature in his body.

At least until he completely controlled the demonic nature in his body, William didn't dare to use all his strength to fight the enemy, let alone transform into a beast or an orc to fight. At present, only William under the human form can maintain his self-awareness, as long as William's emotions do not fluctuate greatly, he can suppress the demonic nature in his body very well and not be affected.

For William's proposal, no one in the Straw Hats objected at all, they were pirates, although they would not take the initiative to burn and loot, but each of them had no less blood on their hands. They are not philanthropists, nor are they navies defending world peace.

Although the Straw Hats have always been loved by the people for what they do, this is not their purpose. Defeating the dragons in the East China Sea is not to seek justice, but because their navigator Nami is crying. Defeating Krokdal in the Kingdom of Alabastan is not to become a hero, but to keep Vivi's companion from being sad.

Because they are pirates, they don't tell you justice, but they tell you about justice, and the consequence of offending them is to become their enemies, and they must defeat them, even if it is a navy that represents justice.

Although no one objected, when Luffy raised the treasure chest and was about to throw it into the sea, the old lady in the treasure chest suddenly begged for mercy in a panic and shouted, "Wait, listen to the old man say a word······"

Although the Straw Hats are nominally pirates, they have always been domineering, and since the old lady in the treasure chest is pleading, how can they give people a chance to speak.

"Who are you?" Since the old lady of unknown origin was given a chance to speak, the first thing the Straw Hats wanted to do was to interrogate the other party's origins.

The old lady saw that the Straw Hats were willing to give herself a chance to speak, so she naturally told her experience in order to survive: "That's the case, the old man was unfortunately caught by pirates during the journey and was almost killed. Later, there was also a storm······ I had to burrow into the treasure chest!"

Although she was still suspicious of the old lady's origins, Nami was only concerned about the whereabouts of the treasure, so she didn't allow the old lady to continue to ramble and asked directly, "What about the treasure inside?"

This is a serious question for Nami, and although she has a lot of gold in William's castle space, some of the gold she collected from Sky Island is worth a lot of money, but no one is disgusted with money.

"Thrown away by the old man!" the old lady told the truth unabashedly. The old lady doesn't have the Devil Fruit ability that can store external items like William, so in order to be able to hide in the treasure chest, she naturally has to choose to throw away the treasure in the treasure chest, even if she is reluctant, her own life is more important after all.

"So what now?" After learning that there was no treasure, Nami reluctantly asked the other partners for their opinions. Without the treasure she wanted, Nami didn't want to continue to be powerful to this old lady of unknown origin, they were pirates and not navy, and they had no obligation to save people.

After thinking about it, Usopp suggested with some reluctance, "Why don't you send her to a nearby island?"

"It's troublesome, why don't you just stuff her back in the box?" Hearing Usopp's proposal, Zoro's proposal was even more pirate-like. For Zoro's proposal, William was also very much in favor.

"Let me go, do you want to kill the old man and throw her into the sea? Let me go! Please!" the old lady mistakenly thought that the Straw Hats were going to kill her and throw her body into the sea, and she hurriedly begged in a panic, and spoke a little incoherently.

"It seems to be overly frightened!" said Nicole Robin, seeing the old lady's strange behavior. It's no wonder that the old lady reacted this way, after all, she had been caught by another group of pirates before, but now she had fallen into the hands of the Straw Hats.

"I was scared by Sauron!" Usopp said with a blatant glance at Sauron. Sauron was the only one of them who looked the most like a warrior, and the only crew member with a weapon at his side.

"Why me?" asked Sauron, unpleasantly. Although he often scares people, and when he fights, he is even more terrifying like a ghost, but this time he didn't scare the old lady.

"By the way, there is a treasure!" The old lady, who mistakenly thought that she was going to be murdered, suddenly had an idea, as if grasping a life-saving straw, and hurriedly said: "Let's make a deal! As long as you send the old decay back, the treasure will be given to you!"

"Treasure?" asked Nami, who was the first to react, suspiciously. As long as there is anything about treasure, Nami has always handled it calmly, and Nami's IQ is also the highest at this time.

"Yes, if you let go of the old decay, the treasure will be given to you!" In a hurry, the old lady could only reluctantly say: "It's a good deal, right? So let go of the old decay!"

"Let's be specific!" After calmly thinking about it for a while, Nami said to the old lady, "Tell me what kind of treasure it is!

"Nami immediately calmed down when she encountered something about the treasure!" Chopper found that Nami was extremely calm at this time, and her IQ was terrifyingly high, and she thought that she was worthy of being the treasurer in charge of all the assets of their gang.

Nami's face was as dark as a terrifying female demon, and she warned in a threatening tone, "You know that we are pirates, right?

In fact, Nami is purely to scare people, and the members of the Straw Hats rarely kill except for the most vicious or life-and-death enemies. Even if they are facing a naval enemy, most of the time they choose to flee or fight back passively. Although the Straw Hats have long been known for their murder, they have never done anything to burn, kill and loot.

"It's not a deal anymore!" Usopp on the side felt a little sympathy for the old lady of unknown origin when he saw Nami's gloomy expression. Although Nami is just a navigator in their group, when she gets annoyed, she can easily balance even the four major combat powers, and their captain Luffy will be less beaten. When Zoro next to him saw the old lady's frightened look, he defended himself and said, "Look, the source of fear is not me!"

"The treasure is true, it is a story that has been passed down from generation to generation by our ancestors, and it is said that only the King of the Sea is qualified to wear the Golden Crown!" Faced with Nami's threat, the old lady didn't dare to lie at all. But the matter of the Golden Crown is just a legend, and the old lady actually doesn't have a real Golden Crown in her hands, and she doesn't even know what the Golden Crown looks like.

"The King of the Sea?" When he heard the old lady say that the treasure was actually a golden crown that only the King of the Sea was qualified to wear, Luffy said with some excitement, "It's a great title like One Piece!"

"I see!" At this time, William remembered that this old lady was the identity, and he knew that they could not miss the next adventure, because Luffy had comprehended the second-level ability of the rubber fruit on the old lady's island. And the development of the second gear of the rubber fruit is a crucial way for Luffy to fight in the future, so they can't miss this adventure.

As for the treasure, it would be meaningless for William to really expose it. For William, as long as the Straw Hats complete this adventure, they can accumulate a wealth of experience, and William just needs to find a quiet place to find a way to solve his own demonic problems.
