Chapter 25: The Lie of Guardianship (I)

"Now, Nami, you said this is the village of Sirob?" When landing, Luffy suddenly asked Nami. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Nami said strangely, "Yes." Why are you asking this all of a sudden? Do you know this village?"

Luffy remembered something and said happily, "Hmm." Once upon a time, one of Shanks' crew members had a good conversation with me. He told me that the village of Sirob was his hometown. He also said n times that he has a son as old as me!I don't know if I can meet him, but if it's a nice guy, I'll let him join us!hehehehehe......"

Zoro and Guina were voluntarily left behind, because the homework assigned to them by Luo Xiu today had been completed.

"Robin, do you want to come along?" Luo Xiu planned to go to the village market with Robin to buy something. Robin smiled and agreed. Then the two left very tacitly.

"Ah, I envy the relationship between Sister Robin and the master~" Guina sighed and glanced at a certain muscular guy beside her. It's a pity that someone's attention is so focused that he doesn't notice her small movements at all.

"So, Luffy, how about you accompany me to find a tool for drawing charts?" Nami invited Luffy with a smile. The main purpose, of course, is to get Luffy to pay.

"Don't. Luffy picked his nose: "I'm going to eat." ā€

Nami suddenly got angry: "Didn't you just eat it?!" After giving Luffy a punch, Nami left in a rage.

"It hurts!" Luffy touched the bag on his head, muttered a few words like "Na Mei is fierce" and "I will definitely not be able to marry in the future", and ran to find a hotel in a hurry.

On the coast, the entrance to the village is an uphill slope. So, there are cliffs too. Behind a pile of bushes, three heads emerged:

"Who do you think they will be?"

"I don't think they're bad people. ā€

"But the flag on their ship is black!"

"Oh yes!"

"Then let's hurry up and inform the captain!"

"Yes, let's go!"

……

At this time of the day, Usopp would go to a wealthy man's house in the village and talk to an eldest lady. Although the four-eyed butler named Cla** was very annoying, Usopp liked Klya very much.

Today, Usopp was bragging about making Keya happy, and that cara** suddenly appeared and drove people away without saying a word. But Usopp is not a person who gives up easily, and Keya also defends Usopp to a certain extent. Seeing that he was considered a bad person, Kra** turned to insult Usopp's father.

In any case, more often than not, pirates are never good people in people's minds.

Eventually, Kra** managed to anger Usopp and get him to take the lead in beating himself. Khaya painfully stopped Usopp. She is kind and doesn't want anyone to get hurt because of her relationship. After that, Cara**'s acting skills were also wonderful, which made Keya feel that he cared about himself. However, the reality of the possible loss of Usopp as a friend made her a little melancholy.

After shopping, Luo Xiu and Robin walked back slowly. On the way, I met Nami, who was also full of loads, so we walked together.

After Luffy was full, he wandered around the village, not wanting to break the tranquility of the village, but finally got lost on the edge of the cliff: "Eh~ Why did you get to the edge of the cliff?

A sad Usopp came to the edge of the cliff to blow the wind. This is the best place on the island to overlook the sea, and he comes here every day to look out at the sea, and one day he takes a boat to the end of the sea. It's a remote place, and he's usually alone. Usopp was slightly startled when he suddenly heard someone call him.

"Hello, do you know how to get to the entrance to the village?" Luffy asked.

"Ahh When I turned my head, it was a stranger, and it was a weak-looking guy, and I was immediately relieved: "Who are you? I haven't seen you before!"

When Luffy saw Usopp, he always felt familiar, but for a while he couldn't remember where he had seen it. Just wanted to explain his identity, and remembered what Luo Xiu had taught, so he changed his words: "My name is Luffy, and I'm just a traveler who passed through your village and went ashore to replenish supplies." I'm lost, can you tell me how to get to the entrance to the village? ā€

"Oh, yes. I'll take you, let's go. Usopp stood up, and had barely taken two steps when he heard the voice of the nasty butler coming from below the cliff:

"Are you all ready?"

Then, Usopp heard another unfamiliar voice:

"Of course, everything is as you commanded, Captain Chloe! The plan to assassinate that eldest lady can start at any time!"

Usopp's eyes shrank, and he whispered to Luffy, "Luffy, wait a minute! I want to hear their conversation!"

Luffy also heard the words of the two people under the cliff, and also lowered his voice: "No problem!"

The two of them lay down, carefully put their heads out, and listened quietly.

"Don't use the ugly words [assassination], Zangao. ā€

"Ah, yes. It's supposed to be an accident, yes, an accidental death! You're still so wise, Captain Chloe. ā€

"Don't call me by that name. Captain Chloe died three years ago. And, now you're the captain. ā€

"Yes. Speaking of which, I still feel like I'm in a dream. ā€

"What do you mean?"

"You said you weren't a pirate, and you quickly promoted me to the position of captain. In the end, he figured out the fact that he was dead. When we arrived in this village, we suddenly disembarked and let us come here three years later...... Your plan will always succeed. We will do as you tell us to do. So, there should be a reward, right?"

"Of course. Afterwards, you'll get your fair share. ā€

"The bad thing of killing people and setting fires is on me. ā€

"This time it's not as simple as killing someone. You have to make Miss Koya 'die in an accident,' understand?"

"Hmmm......"

"It seems that you still don't understand. Chloe's voice sounded a little helpless.

"Where?!, I know very well - just rush into the village and kill the eldest lady at your signal, so that you can inherit the inheritance. ā€

"Stupid!" Chloe scolded mercilessly: "You have a little brain! I have no blood relationship with the Keya family, how can I have the right to inherit the housekeeper?!"

"Just work hard!"

"Stupid! It has nothing to do with whether you work hard or not! Listen, Zangao. This is the key to this project, and it is what I have always appreciated most about you - your hypnotism. Before killing Miss, be sure to use your hypnosis to get her to write a suicide note. And there must be the sentence "After my death, all the inheritance will be inherited by my steward Cara**". ā€

Chloe said with a threatening expression: "Why do you think I spent three years to gain her trust? Only in this way can I inherit this large sum of money legally and reasonably! No one will doubt it, because I am the butler that the young lady trusts!"

"That's what you've been a housekeeper for three years? If it were me, I would have robbed it neatly. ā€

"In that case, I'll be wanted by the government and hunted down by bounty hunters like before! I said three years ago, I'm tired of being in exile! I just want to be a rich man quietly and live a stable life!"

"Hahaha, a peaceful day...... For the sake of your stable life, this rich family died in your hands. ā€

"Hey, don't talk nonsense...... Keya's parents did die of illness, and they have nothing to do with me. They died suddenly, and I was the one who was most surprised. However, it saved me a lot of effort. ā€

"Forget it, none of this matters. You'd better give a signal quickly. We've been hiding here for a week, and those guys can't take it anymore. ā€

"It's tomorrow morning, at dawn. When attacking the village, the villagers should remember to destroy it appropriately, so that it is more like an accident. Speaking of which, Chloe said that he had been out for too long: "That's it for today. Tomorrow, I will be waiting for you in that mansion. Remember, no matter what happens, be there on time!"

In the end, Chloe spoke almost in a tone full of murderous intent.

Luffy and Usopp listened quietly. Because he hadn't seen Koya and didn't ask her for anything, Luffy didn't make any drastic moves. Usopp was already shaking with fear. It seems that growing up in a kind and simple village, this evil plan makes his three views a little unstable.

When the two of them at the bottom of the cliff were far away, Luffy stood up and said to Usopp, who was still shivering, "Let's go, you said you were going to take me to the entrance of the village." ā€

"Hey, you guy, don't you feel a little bit when you hear those words?" Usopp asked, grabbing Luffy's collar in disbelief.

"Hmm......" Luffy thought about it seriously, "That butler is really a bad person." ā€

"That's all, don't you think Miss Koya is pitiful?"

"I don't know that Miss Koya. Do you know her well?"

Usopp paused for a moment: "Ah, yes, you don't know Keya. After all, you're from this village. Then he put down Luffy and staggered forward:

"Let's go, I'll take you to the entrance of the village. That's what I promised from the beginning...... Ah, what should I do?Will the people of the village believe me?Damn......"

Luffy followed behind him, listening to his troubled self-talk, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned.
