Chapter 042: "Wind" Xia Nuo
"Hey, uncle, are you back?"
In the kitchen, Xia Nuo also noticed the movement at the door, and just saw that the breakfast was set, so he took off his apron and walked over, "Got up early enough, uncle, did you go to the newspaper to publish a recruitment notice?" ”
"Well, the notice has indeed been published, and there was a bit of a twist and turn when I went to the newspaper office."
Zhepu closed the door, his face was still a little gloomy, and after glancing at Xia Nuo, he threw away a roll of newspaper in his arms, and snorted coldly, "But compared to a certain trouble, this matter is nothing at all." ”
"Trouble?"
Xia no took the newspaper and looked at Jep with some strange eyes.
"Just open it and see for yourself." Zhepu sighed, found a table closest to the door, pulled out a chair and sat down, and Xia Nuo, after scratching his head, simply sat down opposite him, put the newspaper in his hand on the table, and spread it out.
As a result, as soon as it was unfolded, a thick pile of dark yellow cardboard leaked out of it, and it fell to the ground with a bang, Xia Nuo hurriedly bent over, and when he just wanted to pick it up, his eyes were suddenly attracted by the photo on the paper directly below, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
I saw a short and fat old man with his arms crossed against the dark yellow background, looking into the distance with a cold face, although it was taken from the angle of his side face, but Xia Nuo still recognized it at a glance, this was Tado who had just been separated from him for a long time.
In addition, there is a series of numbers at the bottom of the photo, but the front is obscured, and it is difficult to see the exact amount.
"Wanted?"
Xia Nuo frowned, picked up all the wanted notices scattered on the ground and put them on the table, and pulled out the one of Tado first, only then did he see the number at the bottom, and couldn't help muttering, "That's right, Uncle Tado's bounty has changed from 10 million to 13 million......"
"Thirteen million? Imp, show me clearly before you speak. Zhepu sneered.
"Isn't that much there......"
As soon as he looked away, he heard such a sentence, Xia Nuo pursed his lips and glanced at it again, but after counting the digits of the long list of numbers, his eyes almost popped out, and his mouth was also open: "Eight...... Eight zeros?! 130 million Bailey? ”
"Hmph, what do you think?"
Zhepu sullenly took the teapot on the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and snorted, "After all, that guy ate the natural devil fruit and went to the Great Voyage, it is impossible for the Navy not to pay attention to it, but this number is indeed exaggerated." Hey, I'm a lot older, but I didn't expect this old thing to enjoy the treatment of a supernova, it's really unpleasant. ”
The corners of Xiano's mouth twitched, ignoring the old man's obviously jealous complaints, and after looking at Tado's wanted warrant for a while, he put it aside, took the rest of the wanted warrants, and began to look at them one by one.
At this moment, the shock in his heart has gradually subsided, after all, as Zhepu mentioned, due to the rarity of natural Devil Fruits, the Navy has always attached more importance to this type of ability when releasing the bounty amount, so it is normal for Tado's bounty to rise so terrifyingly, and there is nothing unacceptable.
However, the navy moved so fast, I really didn't expect it......
His gaze swept over the next dozens of wanted notices one by one, and Xia Nuo subconsciously whispered according to the text introduction and the low-end bounty amount on it:
"The captain of the Ichiban team, the ghost sword 'Kairal', and a bounty of fifteen million Bailey."
"The captain of the second team, the fierce man 'Bikie', has a bounty of 12 million Bailey."
"Boatswain Raku, a bounty of nine million Baileys."
…………
"Huh?"
After reading all the wanted notices in a blink of an eye, Xia Nuo was stunned to find that most of these were actually the crew members of the Tado Pirates, and in terms of the amount of bounties, they had also increased to varying degrees, among which Kairal and Biqi had directly entered the ranks of tens of millions of pirates.
"It's really a rising tide......"
After muttering with some emotion, Xia Nuo's finger on the edge of the wanted list habitually flipped to the next one, and then ......
Boom!
With the sound of the chair falling to the ground, Xia Nuohuoran stood up, clutched the wanted warrant tightly in his hands with both hands, and stared at the photo in the middle, his eyes full of disbelief:
"How...... How could it be ......"
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, Xia Nuo stayed for a long time before he slowly let go of his hand and let the wanted warrant fall on the table, while he swallowed his saliva, looked at Zhepu, and said with a confused expression: "This ...... What's going on here? ”
"How's it going, surprised? Not surprised? ”
Zhepu glared at him angrily: "Now I understand what the old man said about the big trouble, you said that you little ghost, you were on the ship before, why didn't you know how to restrain a little limelight, now it's okay, I was misunderstood by reporters and the navy as a pirate, not to mention, I actually regarded you as a subordinate valued by Tado, if you stay in the restaurant, it's okay to say, if you go to sea or land in the future, there will be bounty hunters looking for you trouble." ”
“…… How did I know that there were reporters squatting next to the port? And if you don't have a good brain, forget it, when you inquire about the news, you can run as fast as a Hong Kong reporter......" Xia Nuo rubbed his forehead with a headache, and after saying something that made Zhepu a little confused, he suddenly seemed to remember something, and said with some dissatisfaction:
"No, old man, you obviously praised me last night, why did you train me now, don't you have such a change in tone?"
"Hmph, that's because the old man didn't expect such a thing, otherwise, the old man would be willing to let you take this risk?" Zhepu snorted coldly, picked up the newspaper on the table, and said, "Speaking of which, the efficiency of the newspaper office this time is simply unprecedentedly high. ”
"Well, I guess that." Xia Nuo said with a little speechlessness.
“…… According to this newspaper, in addition to the captain Becky and others who have already been rewarded, this time there is also an extremely strong newcomer in the Tado Pirates, this young pirate named Xia Nuo, swordsmanship is extremely superb, and with the assistance of Captain Tado, he defeated the sea pirate with a bounty of 16 million "Baiji" Chloe, so it attracted the attention of the Navy and was rewarded, it is worth mentioning that the shooting of these photos was done independently by the ace reporter of this newspaper Sika under great risk, which can be described as a model for this newspaper......
Reading this, Tado frowned, "Well, why did you all praise this reporter later?" ”
Then he pulled his gaze down, glanced directly at the end of the article, and instantly understood, "Oh, the signed editor Sika, the guy who dared to do it with the editor and reporter......"
"GLP Northwest? The local tabloid in the East China Sea, that's normal. Xia Nuo glanced at the name on the front page of the newspaper, shook his head speechlessly, and said a little unpleasantly, "Although I know that the reporter named Sika is not wrong, but now, I still want to hack him to death......
"Hey, hey, I said, you guys should be clear, what's going on?"
Sanji was listening with a puzzled expression on the side, but at this time he finally felt that something was wrong, and couldn't help asking, "Could it be that Brother Xia Nuo was treated as a pirate and was on the wanted warrant?" ”
"Ah, congratulations, you got it right, but it didn't win."
Xia Nuo replied weakly, and casually threw the wanted notice to Sanji, "See for yourself, don't you know." ”
Sanji immediately came to his senses, and quickly stood on tiptoe to take the wanted warrant and looked at it fixedly.
In the photo, it is a long-distance broadside photo, on the deck, a black-haired teenager with a delicate face is staring at the sea ahead, where a tornado can be faintly seen whistling, making the whole photo look a little shocking.
And after moving his gaze down and seeing the text at the bottom of the wanted warrant clearly, Sanji was stunned for a moment, looked at Xia Nuo with an unhappy face, couldn't help muttering, and read it:
"Sickness...... Tempest, Xano, Tado Pirates Battle Crew. Bounty ......"
Swallowed saliva, broke out in a cold sweat, and fell straight down from Sanji's sideburns.
"One...... Ten million Baileys! ”
