Chapter 36: Chidori

"Chidori......"

Maud looked at the long knife on the table.

The handle of the knife is engraved with a row of diamond-shaped patterns, the color of the scabbard is blue, slender and textured, and the white "✲" pattern is arranged disorderly on the sheath.

The interweaving of blue and white gives a sense of depth at first glance.

After looking at it for a while, Maud was suddenly full of curiosity about the blade inside the scabbard.

In contrast, Sunny had no interest in the knife at all, and was so engrossed in sweeping the bottom of the bowl that she didn't miss even a finely chopped green onion.

Thor took a large sip of hot noodles and looked sideways at Maude, "What, want to try the feel?" ”

Maude nodded subconsciously and said, "Well, this knife looks very textured, I don't know how it feels to hold it." ”

"Hehe, don't you know if you give it a try?"

Thor freed his hand, picked up Chidori and handed it over.

Maud was overjoyed when she saw this, and reached out to take Chidori over.

At this moment, Thor instantly withdrew his smile, used Chidori as a stick with his backhand, and knocked on Maude's head.

"You have to be the same in everything you do, and you have become interested in knives before you even get started with guns?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Maud rubbed her head and looked speechlessly at Thor, who was smiling one second ago and expressionless the next.

Just look at the knife, as for it?

It was clear that Thor was sensitive to this, and Maud would talk back.

He was still thinking about whether to write down the second request tonight, and it happened that Thor had bought the Chidori from the auction back.

Therefore, he really wanted to feel the charm of One Piece's world-famous sword.

Who would have thought that Thor wouldn't even let him touch the knife.

Obviously so hateful to things related to knives, but so keen to collect famous knives.

I don't know what this old guy has in his head.

Maud glanced at Chidori, who had been put on the table again by Thor, and was quite regretful.

But soon, it occurred to him that the famous knife would be put on the shelves, and Sol would basically go to Flower Street every morning for morning exercises......

Quietly retracting his gaze, Maude made a small calculation in his heart.

At this time, he didn't notice Thor's meaningful eyes, as if to say: Little cub, you should die.

Following.

In the early morning, the mist fills the air.

The air is full of salty and moist moisture.

Maud woke up from her sleep, put on her weights, and ran to the store as soon as possible.

"How could it not be?!"

Looking at the shelves that had not changed as yesterday, Maude, who had disappointed his expectations, suddenly looked disappointed.

Hearing Maude's voice, Sunny came from the corridor and looked at Maude suspiciously.

"What are you doing?"

"Nothing."

Maud said perfunctorily.

He didn't want to say it, but Sunny looked at the shelves, and then thought of Maude's performance last night, and immediately guessed Maude's thoughts.

"Don't think about it, how can the knives that Thor wants to collect be put on the shelves and sold, and he doesn't need these famous knives to fill the faΓ§ade."

"That's right."

Maud was even more disappointed.

He also had the chance to think that Thor might be planning to touch for a few days before putting the knife on the shelf, only to have Sunny shatter his luck with a single word.

"The knives bought at a high price have been put in Thor's own room, but I advise you not to mess around, even if an ant enters the room, Thor can also know."

Sunny glanced at the look of disappointment on Maude's face and walked towards the kitchen.

"Today's breakfast won't be cooked until later, you can clean the store before you come over."

"Okay."

Maud replied weakly, and then looked at the shelves again.

Although there were many long knives on it, they didn't have the feeling that Chidori made his eyes shine.

There is a world of difference between the two.

After all, there is no vanity under the fame.

As one of the fifty industrial good knives, Chidori does not mention the aura of the good knife itself, and the quality alone is not comparable to the knives on the shelf.

But in fact, the knives on the shelves are not bad, although they are far inferior to Chidori, but they are not to the extent of difference.

The reason why Maude feels this way is more due to the influence of fame.

There is no way, he is deeply influenced by the original work, and naturally thinks that only the nearly 100 knives of the industry department are really good knives.

But this world is so vast, how can there only be nearly a hundred good knives.

Even if it is a medium-quality long knife, as long as it is used by a swordsman who is good at arming and domineering.

After a long period of time, the [domineering cultivation] can achieve a quick knife invisibly.

Although he couldn't touch Chidori anymore, Maud instead got the idea of getting a knife.

It's just that he had to sneak in and hide in his room.

If you're fine, you can take it out and get familiar with the feel.

With this thought, Maude was not in a hurry.

On the contrary, the excerpt of the [Notes] is more important, after all, the [Notes] must be returned to Sunny after dinner.

Instead of worrying about Chidori, Maud cleaned the shop as quickly as she could, and then asked Sunny for a new notebook.

It took him more than two hours to copy all the information.

Originally, I had an impression of the information in the [Notes], but I copied it down this time, and I remembered some places more clearly.

Maud estimated that even if he didn't need to match the bounty photo, as long as he saw him, he should be able to immediately identify the identity of the other party.

For most of the day, the arms store was as bleak as ever.

During the period remained a guest also did not have.

It wasn't until dinner time that Saul, who smelled of wine, came back slowly with a pot of wine.

Upon entering the weapons shop, Thor immediately glanced at the weight on Maude's legs.

"Lunch is gone."

Then, he left a sentence and went straight upstairs to his room.

I guess I had a great time eating outside.

Watching Thor go upstairs, Maud returned to the store and couldn't help but glance at the hidden door.

He thought to himself that Thor would not wake up in a few hours if he fell asleep.

Then, in the afternoon, you don't need to be urged by Thor to cultivate, and you can go to the street to find prey.

As soon as she thought of it, Maude didn't plan to eat, and went straight back to her room.

Take off the weight first, and place the two flintlock pistols close to you, as for [Usopp], you don't have to bring it, because the few signs of aging on the body of the gun are too conspicuous.

"About 500,000 Baileys ......"

Maud counted the remaining money and put it in her pocket.

The money was scavenged from his prey after the hunt.

When she was ready, Maud hurried downstairs to the shop.

"Sonny, I'll go out for a moment."

Maud quickly dropped a sentence, and then didn't give Sunny a chance to reply, pushed the door and closed it in one go, and disappeared in an instant.

Inside the counter, Sunny stared at the door in a daze, gritting her teeth after half a ring.

"Mo, De!"

But soon, she noticed how fast Maud had slipped away.

"Impossible, it's only been a few days......"

Sunny thought blankly.

Even if the talent is amazing, it can't be that there is such a significant improvement just after two days of carrying weights, right?

Sunny was puzzled.

......

Walking down the alleyway, Maud suddenly remembered that there were a few [neighbors] around who hadn't visited.

But I thought I could visit at any time, and I was pressed for time, so I saved this idea for next time.

"Speaking of which, this is the first time I've come out during the day."

Maud sighed, then pondered where to go.

The first place to go is definitely the tavern.

Although there are a lot of fish and dragons, the chances of finding suitable prey are relatively high.

However, Maud would also like to visit Cape Street during the day, as well as the other weapons shops, as well as Thor who used to exercise in the morning...... Ahem.

The more he thought about it, the more interested Maude became, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace.

He was in high spirits, but he didn't notice the gaze after coming to him.
