Chapter 10: Chance Encounters
After the disbandment of the Roger Pirates, Reilly was only in his forties. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Although his physical fitness has declined a bit, he is still at the top of the world.
But ten years later, Reilly felt that time was unforgiving. Although his strength is still strong, the gap is still obvious compared to twenty years ago. Now he is a coater in the Chambord Islands, and while helping to coat ships, he also hopes to find someone who can inherit the will of One Piece.
But unfortunately, until now, he has not found such a person.
"Yo, Reilly! What's the latest news? ”
"Won't you buy a newspaper yourself?"
Sitting on the bar counter, wearing an ordinary white dress, wearing a pair of glasses, holding a wine bottle in one hand and a newspaper in the other, Reilly, like an ordinary old man, complained angrily, but still threw the newspaper in his hand to Luo Xing.
Luo Xing, who took the newspaper, shrugged.
"You know, since I was almost knocked down, even if I was willing to pay twice as much, no newspaper warship bird would dare to come to me."
Bounty Order - 'Lord Snake Queen' Boyahan Cook, the supreme leader of the Amazon Lily Kingdom on Nine Snake Island, and the captain of the Nine Snake Pirates.
Reward: 80,000,000 Baileys.
"Boyahan Cook?"
Luo Xing, who took the newspaper, saw the name of the most beautiful woman in the world at first sight, and suddenly raised his eyebrows as if he had a premonition.
Speaking of which, her birthday is the same as my body, September 2nd.
But Reilly misunderstood Luo Xing's smile. He smiled at Luo Xing in the way that all men know, and said while drinking in Xia Qi's 'old age' eyes.
"Boyahan Cook, an eighteen-year-old rookie pirate, but he received a bounty of 80 million Bailey on his first voyage to sea. Although there is a reason why she is the leader of the Nine Snake Pirates, among all the rookie pirates now, it is already very good. ”
Moreover, more than her strength, she is more praised for her beauty. It is said that many of the merchants who saw her at first sight even rushed to give her all their goods and property. ”
"Of course, it's not comparable to you kid."
……
"Potter Cass D Luoxing, the head of the Ship's Niang Pirates, the bounty amount: two billion Bailey? This stinky little imp has that much bounty right now?! ”
Wearing a tattered shirt and full of alcohol, the red-haired drunkard leaned against the wall in a daze, squinting at Luo Xing's wanted post.
"It's all compared to me!"
Before Shanks became the government's default Four Emperors of Pirates and revoked the bounty, his worth was the current two billion Baileys of Luoxing.
"I'll tell you, Beckman. At the beginning, this little ghost often lost to me in kendo. But I didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, it is now also a sea thief who is famous for the great voyage. ”
"Just blow it, Captain!"
Behind Shanks, Ben Beckman, with his long black hair tied into a ponytail, a strand of flowing sea hanging down his left sideburns, wearing a V-neck T-shirt and baggy trousers, and Martin boots on his feet, didn't believe his nonsense.
"The Ship Niang Pirates, but the pirates who were able to fight the World Government's Demon Slayer Order nine years ago. At that time, Captain, you had just formed a pirate group, right? ”
"Don't believe it, do you? Look! ”
The drunken Shanks took out an equally drunk phone bug from his bosom with his right hand and fumbled for the number of Luo Xing.
"Shanks? Is there anything wrong with you? ”
In Xia Qi's tavern, Luo Xing, who was chatting with Reilly, was a little surprised and picked up his phone bug and asked Shanks opposite.
"I, I'm in Chambord right now. You, are you free? We...... Meet up? ”
Just through the phone bug, Luo Xing could feel the smell of alcohol on the slurred Shanks. Ever since watching Roger be executed in front of him, Shanks has become obsessed with the smell of alcohol. Three hundred and sixty-five days a year, he was in a drunken state for at least three hundred days.
"I'm in the Chambord Islands, in a bar called Xia Qi, Shanks, you can come directly."
Hanging up the phone, Luo Xing took out a stack of Bailey from his arms and put it in front of Xia Qi, and smiled at her a little embarrassedly.
"I'm sorry, Xia Qi, please let your bar be closed for a day today."
"No problem! Being able to rest and get money is a good thing I won't refuse. ”
As he spoke, Xia Qi took a deep breath and shouted at everyone in the tavern with a straight face.
"Okay, the old lady is ready to close the door, even if you guys have earned it today, let's leave quickly!"
Two hours later, a drunken Shanks and an equally drunk Reilly were lying on the table and talking nonsense.
"What's the matter with Shanks' hands?"
On the side, Luo Xing, who had a few drinks with Beckman, frowned and pointed to Shanks's left arm, which had suddenly disappeared.
"This is a legacy, a baptism, and a continuation of hope."
But what the smiling Beckman said was in the clouds, if it weren't for Luo Xing who understood what happened in the original book, he really wouldn't have guessed that this was the case.
"The guy who can get Shanks to baptize with one hand? I'd love to see it, too? ”
"East China Sea, windmill village. Karp's grandson. ”
"Karp's grandson?"
Hearing Beckman's answer, Luo Xing shook his head with a smile.
"Navy hero 'Iron Fist' Karp, son is a revolutionary army, grandson is a pirate? Isn't it so funny?! ”
In this regard, Beckman also smiled slightly with Luo Xing. As Shanks' deputy, of course, he also knows the identity of the dragon.
"But, according to the captain, you often lost to him in sword battles when you were a child?"
For Luo Xing, who is the most threatening to take their place under the Four Emperors, even though it seems that he has a good relationship with Shanks, Beckman still asks tentatively.
"Hehe, I was only four years old at that time, just starting to learn swords, and he was ten years older than me. Is bullying a child who is only four years old a very honorable thing in Shanks's eyes? ”
Luo Xing sneered at Shanks, who had already begun to pour wine into his nostrils at this time, and patted Beckman on the shoulder.
"Dude, lend me your gun."
"Willing to help."
Beckman pulled out the rifle stuck in his waist, smiled as Luo Xing pointed the gun at his captain's head, and then - 'boom'!
"Hey, little ghost, are you trying to kill me?!!!"
Feeling the bullets flying past his ears, the drunk Shanks was instantly awakened. But before he could attack Luo Xing, the sword on Luo Xing's waist was firmly stuck between his legs with a 'choking' sound, only a little away from the man's vital point.
"I heard that someone is much better than me in kendo? Why, do you want to go out and practice? ”
"Haha, the weather is so nice today!!"
Shanks smirked and turned his head away, and immediately brushed aside Luo Xing's behavior just now. He didn't have to tie with this seven-year-old self who could tie with his seventeen-year-old self, and now he doesn't know how strong a pervert is. (To be continued.) )
