"Why is the price going up again?You're selling so much for newspapers here!" Nami reluctantly handed the letter to the seagull 100 Bailey and complained: "I won't buy it next time the price goes up!"

The messenger seagull looked at Nami with an innocent face. Like the phone bug, the messenger seagull is also a unique animal in the One Piece world, and as long as its duty is to be responsible for selling newspapers at sea.

"Isn't it just a newspaper or two?" asked Usopp, puzzled. Obviously, the problems of Keke West Village have been solved, why is Nami so stingy?

"I have to buy it every day, and it doesn't add up to a small amount. "Newspapers are one of the best ways to gather intelligence, and William agrees, as a staff officer, you must be aware of current events around the world.

"You're still the same!" said Nochigao. Although at first Nochigao only wanted to live quietly in the village and had no plans to go to sea, he agreed before William's repeated invitations.

Although Nochigao is already a member of the Straw Hats, her position is not on the ship, but as a "combatant" in the castle in William's body. Of course, this combatant doesn't need to participate in the battle himself, otherwise the first opponent will be Nami, and Nokigao only needs to be in charge of the "guards" in the castle.

William's fruit ability is somewhat similar to the fortified city fruit, the entrance and exit of the castle, that is, the gate, is also in the belly, and there are many "windows" on his body to set up weapons and watch the surrounding environment.

"But the world is turning upside down! Nami opened the newspaper and began to read it, and as she opened it, an insert fell out.

"Is this Luffy's wanted warrant?" said Nochigao, picking up the insert. However, when he saw the wanted photo on the bounty list, Nochigao thought it was a promotional poster - Luffy's smile was too bright.

"Haha, we've become wanted, and it's a 40 million bounty!" Luffy snatched the bounty list and saw that the person on it was really himself, and the background was still the collapsed Dragon Park, needless to say, it was the work of the rat colonel. Luffy said proudly, "That's a good photo!

Prior to this, in the East China Sea, where the average bounty was about 3 million, there were only three pirates with a bounty of more than 10 million Baileys, namely: Bucky the "Joker" with a bounty of 15 million Bailey, Creek the "boss" with a bounty of 17 million Bailey, and the dragon with a bounty of 20 million Bailey.

However, these three "super" pirate groups in the East China Sea were all smashed by the same pirate gang one after another, so the Navy Headquarters decided to set a bounty of 40 million Bailey for Captain Luffy.

Although the price is not very high, it is an unprecedentedly high bounty in the East China Sea.

In the Great Voyage or other seas, it may seem that Luffy's initial bounty is not very high, but in the East China Sea, which is known as the weakest, this is indeed the highest initial bounty in history. All of a sudden, Luffy became the most feared pirate in the East China Sea, and the Straw Hats became synonymous with ferocity.

Seeing that Luffy's bounty amount was the same as in the original anime, William knew that the Navy Headquarters did not suspect Colonel Mouse's death on them. Although the navy did not suspect it, the treasure of more than 100 million Bailey in William's body for no reason was suspected by Nami, and many of the treasures looked familiar.

William only said that he had stolen it back from the naval base, and he did not say anything about the assassination of Colonel Mouse. However, as soon as Nami heard that these treasures were her own, she just said "thank you" and took all the treasures for herself. Anyway, more than 10 million of them are not Nami, how did they become Nami!

"Look, there's a picture of me, maybe it's going to captivate a lot of people!" Usopp said triumphantly, pointing to a figure in the corner of the bounty list.

"It's just the back of the head, what's there to show off!" Sanji found that he didn't have his own bounty list, and he squatted on the side in frustration, thinking that if he had his own bounty, he would definitely let the beauties of the world know that he was handsome.

"Don't be discouraged, as long as you work hard, even if you are not the captain, you will be published one day. Usopp was very proud of the back of his head in the photo on the bounty list, and wondered what he would be like if he was really wanted.

"It seems that you don't know the seriousness of the matter, does that mean our heads are being targeted, you know?" Nami was very helpless, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong. From this moment on, the whole world knew about the existence of the Straw Hat Pirates, and how many bounty hunters would target them for bounties, how many navies would target them for meritorious service, and how many pirates would target them for fame?

"Just make them happy for a while!" Noqigao had already been mentally prepared. When they were in Dragon Park, they beat up Colonel Mouse, and at that time, Colonel Rat warned Luffy by name. If Luffy, who is the captain of the Straw Hats, is not wanted, then it would be called a strange thing, right?

"Hey, I see an island!" shouted Zoron, the makeshift lookout. After a few days of recuperation, Zoro had almost recovered, at least the wounds on his body were no longer cracked. Even though Zoro's injuries have not healed, he still insists on exercising and meditating every day.

"Being able to see that island means that we are getting closer and closer to the Great Route!" According to the nautical charts obtained from Bucky, after rounding the island in front of them, they could soon see the estuary in the East Sea of the Great Route. Although Nami is a genius seafarer, she doesn't know exactly how to enter the Great Voyage from the East China Sea, but William has already explained this to Nami.

"The town of Rogue is on that island. William said after putting on his cap.

Rogue Town alias the town where the beginning and the end began, and the former One Piece King Gor. Even though D. Roger was born in this town, he was also executed in this town, one of the closest towns in the East China Sea to the entrance to the Great Passage.

"Is that where One Piece was born and executed?" Luffy stared at the island where his idol was born and was executed, feeling an inexplicable excitement in his heart.

"Are you going?" Nami knew that Luffy must want to look up at the hometown of the previous One Piece, perhaps this was the future One Piece's respect for his predecessors.

"I want to see where One Piece was executed!" Luffy showed a rare serious expression. The reason why Luffy went to sea and aspired to become One Piece was influenced by the "redheaded" Shanks, who was once the daughter of Gor. Trainee pirates on D. Roger's ship.

And the straw hat that Luffy has always regarded as a treasure was passed on by Roger to Shanks, but Luffy didn't know that the straw hat in his hand was what One Piece once had.

"I'm going to prepare some ingredients!" "Since he was going to go ashore, Sanji, who was also a chef, naturally had to go to the vegetable market to prepare enough food before entering the great voyage. Of course, if he could, he really wished to have a locked refrigerator, just to prevent Luffy, the thief, from stealing food.

"I'm going to see the equipment!" In order to meet the adventure of the great voyage, Usopp is also trying to improve his strength, he has not improved his equipment a lot these days, but the limitations and lack of materials have not been completed.

"I also have something I want to buy!" Sauron, who only has one knife by his side these days, always feels that something is missing, and it is really unreasonable to be a three-sword swordsman who only has one knife on his body.

"How about lending you the interest on the escort?" Nami, who heard that the penniless Zoro wanted to buy something, immediately proposed, although he didn't want to accept it, but he was the only person on the ship who didn't have any money on him except Luffy. In the end, he reluctantly borrowed 100,000 Bailey from Nami, but Zoro soon learned that 100,000 Bailey could only buy two poor blunt knives.

"I'm going to find a partner with Noqigao!" At present, there is only one member of the castle in William's body for the time being, although he already has a few candidates in his heart, but he doesn't know if there is fate to meet.

William knew that even though the world had changed a little because of him, there were many things that were a foregone conclusion that had not been changed. In the original book, the first enemy of the Straw Hats to enter the Great Voyage was the Sand Crocodile Crockdahl, one of the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty, and now he has only two choices: one is to forcibly change the course, but he will face unknown dangers in the future. The second is to sail according to the route of the original book, but to face the pursuit of the king's Seven Martial Seas.
