Chapter 225: Rubber Fruit
"Welcome!"
Magino, the owner of the tavern, greeted him with a smile and asked. "Guest, how can I help you?"
The thieves with a high bounty looked around them with disdain, as if their stunned expressions were due to fear of their own might, and said proudly.
"We're bandits, but we're not here to make trouble......"
"Sell us the wine quickly, and ask for about ten barrels."
Magino said in a sweet voice. "I'm sorry, but the wine just sold out!"
"That's weird, are these pirates drinking plain water?"
The bandits, who had a high bounty, looked at the wine on the table of the pirates and said dissatisfiedly.
Magino didn't panic at the bandit's displeasure, but simply explained truthfully. "Because that's all the wine that's sold now."
"I'm sorry, it looks like we've drunk all the wine here!"
Shanks didn't mind the huskies who broke in, but with the idea that wine sharing would be more mellow, he took a bottle of wine in front of him and handed it to the bandits, saying.
"I'm sorry...... If you don't mind, this bottle of wine that hasn't been opened yet is for you! ”
The thief with a large bounty squinted his eyes down at the man in the straw hat of Tubula, and a hint of anger came to him, and his fist roared to break the bottle in Shanks's hand......
Suddenly, the wine was spilled all over Shanks's body, and even the floor was littered with wine and glass shards.
"Lao Tzu is a thief of 8 million Bailey, a bottle of wine is not enough for me to rinse my mouth, don't underestimate Lao Tzu!"
Hearing the arrogant words of the bandit with a high bounty, many members of the "Red-Haired Pirates" almost burst out laughing......
8 million Bailey, so scared~
However, looking at the serious atmosphere on the field, and the fact that his captain was spilled with wine, he forcibly stifled his laughter.
In the face of the thief's rude behavior, Shanks didn't care in the slightest, but looked at the floor wet with wine, felt extremely sorry, and muttered.
"I'm sorry that the floor is wet, Miss Magino!"
With that, Shanks bent down and bowed his head and took the initiative to clean up......
However, Shanks's generous behavior, in the eyes of the thieves with a high reward, is more like a cowardly behavior that does not dare to face himself, and he can't help but swell up more and more......
Immediately, the thief with a high bounty pulled out the sword worth tens of thousands of Baileys from his waist and swept it towards the bar, sweeping all the cups and plates on it.
For a while, the bandits with a high reward suppressed the audience, and said arrogantly and disdainfully.
"Looks like you like to clean so you can wipe it ......"
With that, the thief, who had a high bounty, put the sword in its scabbard and turned away. "Tsk...... It's not fun to drink without alcohol......"
"Gone!"
"Goodbye, wretched!"
The thieves left the bar with their hands in their trouser pockets.
A moment after the thieves left the bar, Shanks and the rest of the group burst into laughter, as if they had just seen a very good show!
"The boss is really bullied so badly!"
"Captain Stupid is really embarrassing......"
"The bandit just now is still terrible, haha......"
……
However, Shanks and the others were able to laugh without care, but Luffy, who witnessed the whole process, was trembling with anger, and even the orange juice in his hand trembled because of this.
For Luffy, Shanks and them are the pirates he yearns for the most, and after some communication, Luffy seems to regard them as his friends......
And now, the pirates he longed for were bullied so badly by a group of bandits, how could Luffy not be angry?
Even Luffy had a feeling in his heart that the profession of a pirate was insulted by Shanks.
Suddenly, Luffy couldn't hold back his question.
"Why are you still laughing?"
"Don't you think it's a shame to be like that?"
"Why don't you do it with them?"
As soon as Luffy came up, he came with a quality three-in-a-row, and then clenched his little fists, stood up directly in the chair, and shouted.
"Even if the other party is outnumbered, it looks like it's still strong......"
"But being bullied by others and laughing can make you laugh, you are not a man at all, and you don't deserve to be a pirate!"
Facing Luffy's questioning, Shanks, who was sitting on the ground, still had that hearty expression on his face, and said indifferently.
"It's just that I've been splashed with wine, so I don't need to be angry at all, right?"
However, Luffy, who is just a child now, can't understand Shanks's state of mind at all, and turns around as if making a fuss......
Suddenly, Luffy discovers that the box that Shanks had placed on the table before has been opened at some point, and there is a strange purple fruit placed inside......
And this fruit exudes a strong and incomparably strong appeal!
Immediately, Luffy, who turned his grief and anger into food, grabbed the fruit and stuffed it into his mouth......
"Stupid, what did you eat?"
Shanks, who heard Luffy's chewing sound and was about to comfort Miss Magino, turned his head and asked in surprise.
Frightened by Shanks' serious and surprised voice, Luffy subconsciously swallowed the fruit with an indescribable disgusting taste in his mouth into his stomach......
"Did you eat the contents of the box?"
Shanks stood up nervously and questioned Luffy.
Don't look at Shanks as if he was sneering at Luffy, in fact, as soon as he came into contact with Luffy, he found that this six-year-old imp had a physical fitness far beyond his peers, and he also had a simple pirate dream......
And Shanks is more optimistic about the development of kendo or physical skills in terms of strength, after all, among the strong men of the previous generation, whether it is Captain Roger or the old man Karp who has been chasing them for more than ten years, they are all fruitless powerhouses......
So Shanks didn't want Luffy to eat the Devil Fruit at all, adding a few fatal weaknesses to himself.
Not to mention that this rubber fruit was accidentally picked up by Shanks before he arrived in Windmill Village, and the abilities and properties of the rubber fruit are really not outstanding.
It's a pity that it's too late, and when Shanks directly turned Luffy upside down, trying to make Luffy spit out the Devil Fruit that he swallowed, Luffy's body was completely rubberized.
At the same time, Chen Mo, who was on a desert island dozens of nautical miles away, raised his head with feeling......
In Chen Mo's deliberately one-way locking breath of life, Luffy's breath of life suddenly changed greatly.
It seems that something is mixed in the essence of Luffy's life breath......
"Something's wrong?"
