Chapter 46: Talking
Four days later, in the town of Tutusir, in front of the blacksmith shop specializing in making all kinds of weapons, the boss Dunrador looked at the young man who was gesturing, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said:
"There's nothing wrong with me being a blacksmith here, but I haven't been a pot maker for a long time, so you might as well find another shop to build or go directly to the shop to buy a pot."
"Besides, the pot you said is too bells and whistles, and it will take a lot of time if it really starts."
"I know, but the people in the town say that boss, you were a pot maker in your early years, and you played a good pot and dominated the entire Tutucil sea market."
"As long as the boss is willing to take action for me, Bailey is not a problem."
Louis opened his mouth when he heard this, according to his old saying: it is better to live without bamboo than without pot. A good pot is very important when traveling, not only to boil water for cooking soup, but also for warfare.
"It's really not a Bailey problem, kid. It's really because the process is too cumbersome. ”
When the boss heard this, he explained that a good pot is not much easier to build than a good knife, but a good knife can be sold at a good price, and no matter how good a pot is, it is only worth that little money.
It's not worth his effort to get so much Bailey in order to do that.
"I understand, boss."
"How about five million Baileys? As long as you're willing to make a good pot for me. ”
There are no absolutes in everything, and if it is not possible, it is either a matter of strength or a matter of interests.
Louis believed that the boss would give in before he Bailey opened the way.
"This ...... Still no, kid. You'd better go find someone else. ”
The boss was stunned when he heard this, and then continued to speak.
"Eight million Bailey, boss, do you think this price is worth building a good pot for you?"
Seeing this, Louis continued to increase the price, and as long as the boss hesitated, it proved that it was still possible.
"Let me think again, little friend."
The boss laughed, and then stared at Louis expectantly. Eight million Baileys is a lot, and it can already impress him, but if the customer in front of him is willing to pay a higher price, why don't he wait.
"The boss should be content, do you know? Especially on this chaotic sea. It's going to be miserable to mess with someone you shouldn't be messing with. ”
Hearing this, Louis pulled Sauron beside him, revealing the wounds on Sauron's body and said lightly to the boss.
"Good...... Yes, this guest bothered you to take the pot three days later. ”
The boss looked at the wounds on Sauron's body, sweat broke out on his forehead, and spoke.
With so many injuries at a young age, and they were all scratched by sharp weapons, he suddenly understood a little bit of what the little ghost in front of him was doing.
"Well, that's pretty much it."
"I hope you don't give me a rotten pot when I call it a day. Boss. ”
Louis nodded and said when he heard this, then picked up the big knife that the boss put on the table, flicked his fingers, and after the blade of the big knife trembled, it broke into two in the boss's puzzled gaze.
"Where...... Where...... Village. I'm an honest blacksmith. It's sure to make a good pot, so don't worry. ”
The boss stammered when he heard this, and he was about to cry in his heart. I thought I had slaughtered a fat sheep, but who knew that I was the fat sheep 🐑.
"Well, I'll come back to get the pot in three days."
"Zoro, let's go."
Seeing the appearance of the blacksmith shopkeeper, Louis was relieved to call Sauron to leave with him. He didn't show his hands to the blacksmith shopkeeper, who didn't slaughter him like a pig and fooled him with garbage.
"Alas! It's a loss. ”
"It seems that this time I have to take it out to eliminate the disaster."
The blacksmith shop sighed as he watched the two leave. I knew that he should close the door today and go to the opera with the fruit shop next door, so he wouldn't run into bad guests.
"My dear darling, I can't bear you. But for my safety, I have to send you out. ”
The blacksmith shop owner took out a piece of heavy iron from the floor under the counter and threw it into the furnace, which he had fished out of the sea with the intention of making a good knife.
But now that the catastrophe is coming, he has to take out this piece of iron, otherwise any little ghost will directly break the pot he made of ordinary iron at once, and he will not die.
For the sake of his own life, he could only tearfully beat this piece of meteorite into a pot.
"How are you doing? Zoro. ”
"Is it better? If only it were better. Just say, let's go to the sea and catch fish. ”
Louis led Sauron to the coast, asking as he went.
"Uh, Louis."
"Don't we have Bailey? There are also places to eat in the town. Why do we even go fishing in the sea? ”
Hearing this, Zoro wondered, usually they had to go to the sea to fish in the boat themselves, but now that they are in the town, why do they have to go to the sea to fish?
"Money is where it should be spent, Zoro."
"Why should we spend Bailey to eat when we can fish ourselves? Am I not good at my craft? ”
When Louis heard this, he said, they have only been out to sea for a short time, and they don't have much Bailey on them at all, and it is not good to spend lavishly. Bailey should spend it where it should be, such as buying a good spatula or buying a kitchen knife that can fight the black knife.
"Well, not really. Louis. ”
"I just wanted to change my appetite and eat something else."
Zoro shook his head when he heard this, and said, "If you eat fish every day, others are about to become fish." This time he came to the town to spend money was not the purpose, he just wanted to change his appetite.
"Earlier, Zoro."
"Let's go to the vegetable market in the town to buy groceries. Whatever you want to eat, let's just do it. Louis laughed and took Sauron to the vegetable market to buy vegetables.
At night, a bonfire on the coast illuminates Luis and Zoro.
Louis looked at the patterned Devil Fruit in his hand before putting it back in his bag.
"Louis, why have you been taking this fruit out to see it these days, but why don't you eat it?"
Seeing this, Zoro wondered, wondering why Louis was hesitating when he wanted to eat it?
"This is the Devil Fruit animal cat fruit, which is the fruit eaten by the guy who fought with you last time."
"After I slaughtered him last time, this Devil Fruit appeared nearby, and I just happened to find it. I hesitated because it tasted bad, the most unpalatable thing on the sea. ”
Louis opened his mouth to explain that eating the Devil Fruit has an effect on others, but it has no effect on him. He's hesitating just because it doesn't taste out of fashion.
The system offered him several options after he found the Devil Fruit.
First, eat the Devil Fruit, and the system will give him 1000 Hunting Points.
Second, if he eats the Devil Fruit, but he has to make up a thousand points, the system will use this thousand points to erase the weakness of the Devil Fruit's fear of water. Otherwise, he would still be afraid of water.
Third, eat the Devil Fruit and pay the system one hundred Singularity Points every year, and the system will help him seal all the abilities of the Devil Fruit, so that he is not afraid of the sea like a person who has never eaten a Devil Fruit, but he can't use a little Devil Fruit ability.
Moreover, all three of these schemes are after the Devil Fruit is in the stomach, whether he dies or not, the Devil Fruit will not appear on the sea.
But the good news is that no matter how many Devil Fruits he eats, the system charges at this price.
For example, if he eats three Devil Fruits, erasing their weakness of fear of water only costs the price of one Devil Fruit (but the premise is that all three of his Devil Fruits must be removed at the same time, and cannot be lifted back and forth), and if he eats three Devil Fruits to seal them, the cost of Hunting Points in a year is still 100 points, and there is no need to spend additional points.
