Chapter 9: Chance Encounters

"Wow! this town is so big!" a young man in a straw hat looked at the bustling crowd in Rogue Town, his face excited.

"I'm going to see the execution table!" Luffy shouted, leaving everyone behind and running forward.

"Hey, Luffy" A man with a long nose was just about to stop his captain, but he was patted on the shoulder by Sanji.

"Don't worry, Usopp, Luffy isn't the green algae head. The curly-eyebrow cook spat out a smoke ring, looked around for a moment, and continued:

"Is this the place where the Age of Discovery began? But to be honest, it's too bustling. "(There are a lot of beautiful women) Yamaji heart.

"Yes, after all, the headquarters of the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce is in Rogue Town" The orange-haired navigator touched his smooth chin, "I have long heard that the fashion of the Glitter Gold Chamber of Commerce is the best in the East China Sea, and I must take a good look at it when I come to Rogue Town this time!"

Usopp nodded, "Well, I'll buy some tools and equipment too." ”

"I'll go and see if there are any good ingredients" (and the beauty) Sanji's mouth turned up obscenely.

"I also have something to buy," said the green-haired swordsman Masase.

"I can lend it to you," Nami smiled, smiling like a cat stealing food

"But it's three times the interest!"

Zoro had a black line on his face......

Saying goodbye to everyone, Nami began her journey to find the fashion store of the Glitter Chamber of Commerce alone.

The streets of Rogue Town are very wide, and there are many shops on both sides, and Nami carefully found that almost all of those shops have one thing in common, a golden iris emblem printed on the sign, indicating that these are all properties under the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce.

Walking and stopping, Nami came to the door of a fashion store with gorgeous decorations, looked at the name of the store, and when she walked into the store, Nami's eyes immediately turned into star eyes. After all, women are born with a love for clothes.

Picking up a beautiful dress with an excited face, Nami was just about to find a fitting room to try it on, but was interrupted by a very disgusting voice.

"Beauty, do you have any clothes in mind?"

Nami shuddered, looked back, but saw a fat man with a lewd expression, he was wearing a name tag, a golden iris emblem printed on his chest, gold and silver on his fingers, neck, and ears, jewelry, typical nouveau riche dress, followed by several people in black, who seemed to be bodyguards.

Nami only felt a little sick to her stomach, how could there be such a strange guy.

"Mr. Loki" A clerk walked over and bowed slightly to the fat man, but the other party didn't have time to talk to him.

Loki looked Nami up and down with his small eyes that were as small as soybeans, a pig-like look.

"Beauty, tell me what clothes you like, this store is owned by my family!" Loki looked proud.

Nami's expression froze, what kind of masterpiece is this?

(I'm King Kaizi, I'm stupid and have a lot of money, I'm passing by, don't let it go!)

That's what Nami saw from Loki's fat, oily face.

A pair of big eyes blinked, and Nami smiled slightly, looking at Loki like a humanoid self-propelled ATM.

…………

After more than a year of absence, Sherlock once again stepped on the land of his hometown, pulled the hood on his head, and walked in the familiar and unfamiliar streets of Rogue Town, the leather boots under his feet made a crackling sound, and Sherlock's originally slightly excited heart gradually calmed down.

"Counting the days, it seems that the annual Tokai Cuisine Contest is being held today, but unfortunately, I can't be a judge now" Thinking of this, Sherlock was a little depressed.

At this moment, a commotion came from a distance, and Sherlock turned his head to look, only to see two tall pirates facing off against a female navy, and a weapon fight was inevitable. This female navy wears a pair of glasses, a beautiful face, a slender figure, and a quick knife at her waist, which is in stark contrast to the two fierce pirates.

Sherlock's eyes narrowed slightly, and one hand reached for the pistol at his waist without leaving a trace. However, what happened next turned out to be much more than Sherlock had anticipated.

saw a flash of sword light, the positions of the two sides were reversed, and the two pirates fell to the ground with several knives, while the female navy half-raised the sword in a chic posture.

Sherlock thought to himself, "Oh, it looks like the Navy has a lot of ...... besides that bunch of trash in Division 4"

At this time, perhaps not in a good balance, the female navy leaned forward, and actually came to a classic flat fall, even the glasses on the bridge of her nose fell far away, and landed at the feet of a green-haired man, causing a burst of good-natured laughter from the surrounding onlookers.

"Well, it's a great natural stay. Sherlock raised an eyebrow, a little amused, "Besides, her glasses seem to be of the same brand as mine." ”

The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and Sherlock walked through the crowd and left.

On the other hand, Zoro bent down in some surprise and picked up the glasses of the female navy, but he didn't expect that with such superb swordsmanship, her sense of balance was so poor.

"Hey, your glasses" Zoro handed the glasses in his hand.

"Ah, thank you so much," Dusty smiled gratefully at the vague figure in front of her.

“!!!”

But he never thought that when Zoro saw the face of the female navy, his expression changed greatly, and the whole person was like being struck by lightning, and the hand holding the glasses was subconsciously clenched.

The sound of clattering ~ glass breaking is very crisp......

"She should be in the headquarters now. Sherlock thought as he walked forward, and as he passed by a fashion store, a familiar voice caught his attention.

"Oh my God, it's so beautiful!"

"It's so sexy, my goddess!"

"Extravagant, incomparable!"

……

"Is that Loki's idiot?" Sherlock's eyes narrowed slightly, and after a moment's thought, he turned around and walked into the fashion store.

At this time, Nami was wearing a pink cheongsam, and the exquisite workmanship of the cheongsam not only reflected her bumpy figure to the fullest, but also gave people a sense of charm that a girl should not have. The hungry ghost in Loki's color almost snapped his eyeballs off.

"Buy, buy, buy, go, wrap this one up," Loki exclaimed in a wealthy voice, next to dozens of already wrapped clothes.

"Loki" was soft and flat, but in Loki's head, the voice exploded like thunder.

Loki turned around in a panic, only to see a dark figure standing quietly in front of him, under the cover of a wide hood, it was impossible to see his appearance clearly, very mysterious.

"Long time no see," Sherlock said lightly, pushing his glasses.

Looking at the familiar movements, even with the hood covered, Loki could be sure of the true identity of the person in front of him. His expression was stunned, and the fat on his face began to tremble with surprise.

"Didn't you die a year ago?!"

"Well, maybe it's because I'm lucky. Sherlock glanced vaguely at Nami, who was picking out clothes, looked at her for a moment, and then asked:

"Your girlfriend?"

Nami, who had been eavesdropping, almost tore the clothes in her hand when she heard this.

"Just kidding, there's a girl who would be blind to you?" Without giving Loki time to retort, Sherlock continued:

"Come over here and ask you something. With that, he turned around and walked out the door.

Having learned Sherlock's methods, Loki didn't dare to disobey his brother's words, and he first gave a few words to his bodyguard, and then chased him out with a big belly.

Nami saw that the disgusting fat pig went out with a mysterious person, and her heart was inexplicably relieved, and when the man in black in the cloak was present just now, Nami felt that the person seemed to be observing him, and the feeling of being on her back made her feel a little guilty.

Asking the attendant to wrap the last piece of clothing, Nami bowed slightly to one of Loki's bodyguards

"Go back and thank you for me," Nami then ignored the bodyguard's retention, grabbed a big, outrageous bag, and walked out.

It's hard to imagine how her thin little body could carry such a big bag.

Nami was carrying a large bag of new clothes that didn't cost money, humming a song, and she was in a happy mood.

When she came to the location near the sea, Nami noticed that there were suddenly more people around her, and looking at the surrounding decorations and furnishings, it seemed that there was going to be some kind of event here, and it was very lively.

Nami looked left and right, and suddenly, she spotted a familiar long nose in the crowd.

"Usopp, what are you doing here?"

"Oh, Nami. Usopp was carrying a large bag behind his back, and he looked like he had gained a lot, and he pointed forward and said:

"A cooking contest is being held here, and it's ......"

Nami looked in the direction of Usopp's finger, only to see a blonde with curly eyebrows sitting in the contestant's preparation room, bored and spitting in the mist.

"Sanji, what is he doing in this competition?" Nami was puzzled.

duang~ a gong sounded.

A man dressed as a host walked up, first uttered a long list of boring opening remarks, and then reached out to the judges' stand with one hand.

"Next, let me introduce the judges who are present......

"Cut, that's a lot of nonsense. Sanji spat out his cigarette a little impatiently, and looked at the judges' stand with his right eye along the host's introduction, and then, he was shocked!

"Ahem, finally, we are very honored to invite Miss Anna, the president of the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce, to be the friendly judge of our cooking competition. The host said that his voice was raised in vain.

Then a beautiful light blonde woman with a beautiful figure got up and greeted the onlookers in the audience. Instant applause thundered, whistles, screams one after another, and a guy with curled eyebrows screamed the most joyfully.

"Ahh......h

Nami and Usopp looked at each other in the crowd, and they both had the expression of being so embarrassed that I didn't know this guy.

"This idiot!" X2
