Chapter 11 Choosing a Name First?
Listening to the conversation coming from the shop, Maud couldn't help but be intrigued by Thor's origins.
can be familiar with a big man like Shanks, and can be used by Jesus as an honorific title, it can't be a small character who is not well known.
Within two days of coming to this world, Maud had already understood a profound truth.
In this era of great exploration, there must be a lot of ruthless characters who have not been mentioned in the original book.
If you want to establish yourself in such a world......
The difficulty is by no means comparable to that of the hunter world.
Maud subconsciously clenched the smoothbore flintlock pistol she had received from Jesus Cloth.
Now that the weapon is in hand, the next step is to find a second prey.
But the premise of finding the second prey is to have the capital to walk freely outside.
The deterrent power of a gun alone is not enough.
You know, although he has marksmanship, he doesn't have the reload speed of Jesus Bu.
When fighting people, it is estimated that there is no follow-up after a bullet is fired.
"Huh?"
Maude's eyelids jumped, and a more important question suddenly came to mind.
"No bullets......"
I just wanted to leave the scene as soon as possible, so I didn't have time to lay gunpowder and lead bullet on Jesus.
Mordver is up.
Night.
The restaurant is brightly lit, the table is full of delicious food, and the glass is full of wine.
Shanks looked at the wine stains in the wooden cup and sighed: "I have drunk countless fine wines, but only the wine of my hometown can make me unforgettable." ”
"Why are you still here?"
Thor drooped his eyelids, his face full of disgust almost turned into a condiment and sprinkled into the dish.
"Don't be so cold, I haven't seen you in a while."
Shanks smiled and put down his glass, as if the-for-tat of the daytime had become a thing of the past.
Sunny poured wine for Shanks at the right time, while Jesus Boo ate and drank with his head down.
As for Rakhi. Road, after carrying the wine back to the ship, he didn't come back.
Maud sat on the seat against the wall, glad that Jesus had not left, and thought about when to ask Jesus for gunpowder and buckshot.
Of course, he couldn't have begged for it at the dinner table.
Come to think of it, the only time point is-
Toilet Break, Toilet Break, Toilet Break......!
Maude muttered silently in her heart.
Jesus, who was drinking, was inexplicably agitated.
Well? Could it be that the temperature difference between day and night is too large?
He shook his head and continued drinking.
Thor glanced at Shanks' empty left sleeve and said coldly: "I'm not joking with you about those words during the day, a big man like you, just to buy wine, runs to me from time to time, it will inevitably bring me some unavoidable trouble." ”
"That's right."
Shanks looked at the glass of wine.
"Have you ever thought about it...... Come on my boat? ”
"Going to your boat?" Thor sneered, "I'm already an old guy who is about to enter the coffin, do you want me to retire on your ship?" Besides, it is enough for you to have a Jesus cloth on board. ”
"Uh, I'll go to the bathroom."
Jesus couldn't stand the big hat that Saul suddenly buttoned over, and got up to take shelter for a while.
Seeing this, Maud secretly said yes and silently followed behind.
The two of them were missing from the table, but it didn't affect the conversation between Shanks and Thor.
"It's also ......"
Shanks smiled, unable to contradict Thor's words.
Thor took a sip of the wine in his cup and said calmly: "For decades, there have been as many pirates as carp crossing the river, but in the end, how many can die well?" An old guy like me, who has been eliminated by the times, is satisfied to have one more day of respite. ”
“……”
Shanks was silent.
Sunny muttered, "I can still run to Flower Street every day......"
Shanks smiled.
"Talk less and eat more."
Thor first glared at Sunny, then squinted at Shanks, and snorted coldly, "What are you laughing at?" If you understand, don't come back in the future. ”
Shanks said seriously: "Then you can reveal the location of the island where the wine is stored." ”
"Get out!"
.........
in the hallway.
"Looking for me?"
Jesus Cloth stood at the door of the toilet and turned his head to look at Maude, who was following her.
Maude nodded, lowered her voice and said, "I want to ask you for lead bullet and gunpowder." ”
"Huh?" Jesus Bud looked at Maud strangely, "This is a weapons shop." ”
If you want a gun during the day, you can ask for ammunition at night?
"That's right, but ......"
Maud was speechless for a moment, trying to find a suitable reason as soon as possible, but he didn't have the familiar method of Sunny who could put the black cauldron on Thor's head in a conversation and laughter.
Seeing that Maud wanted to speak, Jesus Bu did not delve into it, and took out a small part of lead bullet and gunpowder from the ammunition bag.
"Is that enough?"
"Enough!"
Maud nodded violently, fearing that Jesus would repent, and quickly took the ammunition with his hand.
Jesus was a little speechless, only a few rounds of ammunition, as for it?
He looked at the lights in the dining room, and thought that the boss and Mr. Sol would probably have to talk for a while, so he simply squatted down in front of the toilet door, took out his cigarette and smoked it.
After getting the ammunition, Maud didn't plan to stay, and was going to go to the room on the second floor to put the ammunition away.
Before he could take a step, he saw Jesus cloth hand him a cigarette.
"Smoked?"
"Uh......"
Maud couldn't refuse, so she put the ammunition in her pocket before taking the cigarette.
Jesus Bu exhaled a puff of smoke, perhaps out of boredom, and opened the conversation at the right time.
"Ever considered giving the gun a name?"
Maud thought about it when she heard this, and was about to answer, but was robbed by Jesus: "Alas, I always call it old man, but I can't accompany it to the end, guns are not like swords, and they are easy to remember." ”
"Even if you give a gun a big name, people will remember the person who used it, but I want you to remember that a good gun makes a good sniper, by the way, what are you going to name the old guy?"
"I ......"
Maud just wanted to speak, but was robbed again.
"Actually, I'm still a little reluctant to leave the old guy behind, but after handing it over to you, I don't know why, there is always a sense of relief that can't be explained."
"I ......"
"It's just that as a gunman, you have to keep up with your physical condition, you can't do it like you, your body is too weak."
"I ......"
"Eh, what am I doing here, with Mr. Sol here, it's not my turn to give you advice, haha, by the way, I don't know what name you want to give the gun."
"I ......"
"Otherwise, let's call it Usopp, what a cute name, it's actually my son's name, and now that I think about it, I should be about the same age as you."
“……”
Choking smoke filled the front of the toilet.
Maud came to his senses.
Don't think to speak when you're faced with a drunken chatterbox.
Listen and you're done.
