Chapter XXIII
"Huh?" Aaron frowned slightly and looked at Luffy not far in front of him.
With his perception ability far beyond that of humans, he didn't know when there was an extra child around him.
The stone that had broken the pistol just now had apparently come from the direction of the child.
Throwing away the mutilated handle in his hand, Aaron turned his attention to Luffy.
Aaron's idol and boss, Fisher Tiger, in order to send a little human girl slave home, was betrayed by the little girl's family, and rushed to surround him with the navy, although he finally escaped, but died of blood loss.
It was also since then that Aaron began to deeply hate humans, especially human children.
"Boy, who are you?" Aaron asked in a deep voice.
Luffy just smiled at Aaron and didn't say anything.
At this time, Luffy was counting the number of fishmen present, and he didn't have time to talk to Aaron.
Check the quantity, and only after a while will you know if there are any fish that have slipped through the net, this is all experience!
The remaining pirates of the Hammer Pirates, Luffy didn't embarrass them.
Seeing a larger pirate ship docked in the harbor, Luffy asked the survivors to drive the ship of the Hammer Pirates and leave.
As for whether they will continue to be pirates in the future, or go home safely and live a peaceful life, they will not return to Luffy.
Bermel, who had escaped from the hands of death, slowly opened his eyes, but before he could figure out what the situation was, his eyes had become dilated, and he didn't even know whether he was dead or not.
Relaxed, his body suddenly lost his strength and sat on the ground.
The cigarette in his mouth also fell to the ground, rolling around a few times, and still emitting wisps of smoke.
"Aunt Bermel."
"Bermel."
Nokigao and Nami on the side hurriedly ran over and hugged Bermel and cried.
"You..."
Bermel, who was hugged tightly, felt the warm love from her daughters, and her spirit recovered.
"Not good!"
Seeing that Aaron and his gang had already begun to walk towards Luffy, Bermel realized that the child was in danger.
Bermeel, who had just closed his eyes, didn't know what was going on, only that it was what the little boy had done that made Aaron temporarily put aside the idea of killing.
No more innocent people can be killed!
Bermel hurriedly loosened Nami and Nokigao.
Picking up the little cigarette butt that had fallen on the ground, he stood up and said, "Hey! Pirates! β
As he spoke, he was about to step forward to organize Ah Long and the others.
A hand suddenly grabbed Bermel from the side.
Ah Jian covered the bleeding wound, shook his head at Belmel and said, "Don't be impulsive, Bermel, that kid doesn't seem to be an ordinary person." β
And at this moment, Aaron and the others have come to Luffy and surrounded Luffy, as if to prevent Luffy from escaping.
Each fish-man is more than two meters tall, and the undeveloped Luffy is not even as thick as one of the fish-man's calves.
"Boy, big brother is asking you!" A blue-skinned, long-mouthed kissing fish-man approached Luffy.
He is also one of the three major cadres of the Evil Dragon Pirates, kissing the fishman "Chirp".
Looking at the tall figure that was walking into him, Luffy smiled confidently again, and didn't say a word, only his greedy gaze swept towards the fish-man cadre without hesitation.
"Damn! Gremlin! β
Luffy's eyes reminded him of those compatriots who were captured as slaves, those hateful aristocratic humans, who looked at them with a kind of look.
"I'm going to kill you!"
Jiu raised his right hand high, from top to bottom, and slammed it towards Luffy with all his might, regardless of whether this punch would turn into a lump of meat in front of him.
In the distance, Bermel instantly broke away from Ken's hand, trying in vain to save Luffy from the heavy punch, even though she knew that it was all in vain, but her sense of justice couldn't let her sit idly by.
"Bastard! Stop it! β
With his uninjured hand, Bermel quickly picked up a stone from the ground and threw it in Aaron's direction.
But it was all in vain, and the fist of Chirp still hit Luffy.
"Bang..."
There was a muffled sound.
The fist wind brought up a thick layer of dust and mist, obscuring everyone's sight.
Aaron and the other fishmen grinned, ready for the next taunt.
Bermel's eyes were closed, his head was raised to the sky, tears still flowing uncontrollably, he gritted his teeth fiercely, and his face was full of remorse.
I blame myself for being too weak!
You can't even protect a child!
Damn it!
"Bey... Belmel, look! β
Nami's sixth sense is stronger than that of ordinary people, she didn't feel that something would happen to the little boy at the first time, and even at the moment when the little boy appeared, Nami inexplicably felt a sense of peace of mind.
So Nami didn't bear to look directly like the others, and staggered her gaze.
Nami's eyes widened, staring at the center of the mist.
The dust slowly fell.
The figure in the dust and mist slowly appeared in front of everyone.
Luffy raised one arm, opposite Jiu's fist.
Obviously, the fist is only one-fifth the size of Jiu's fist, but Jiu can no longer go further.
Luffy was still smiling, but Jiu was bent over with red eyes, his eyes full of horror and anger.
Luffy's smile narrowed slightly, and the other gathered strength, and with a flick of his body, the power of his waist drove his arms and attacked him.
Seeing this scene, I didn't have time to think about it, a sense of crisis filled my body, and I instinctively took a step back.
"Boom, boom, boom."
Luffy's fist slammed into the ground where Jiu had just been.
In an instant, the ground cracked, and the wind surged.
The earth was torn apart, and countless rubbles rose from the sky.
Jiu was also knocked upside down by the aftermath of the punch, and the rubble exploded on his skin.
Drops of blood fell to the ground, and the chirping became weaker and weaker.
Even if you don't die, it's hard to get back up.
Under the blue sky.
Aaron's eyes widened, and Mori's cold eyes hit Luffy's body like a cold knife.
"Dead imp! How dare you hurt my compatriots! Unforgivable! Seeing that one of his subordinates was almost killed, Ah Long's face became even more hideous, and a violent evil aura surged into his heart.
Luffy glanced at the irascible Aaron and walked out of the fish-man encirclement coldly, and the fish-people stepped back one after another, their bodies trembling slightly.
Came to Bermel and the others.
Looking at Nami, who was taller than himself and had orange hair, Luffy showed two rows of small white teeth, and a sunny smile appeared on his face again.
Stretched out his hand and smiled at Nami and said, "Hello, my name is Luffy!" β
That confident and bright smile, full of security, made Nami forget for a moment the fierce dragon pirates, and forget the life and death parting with Bermel a moment ago.
Nami stretched out her hand and shook Luffy's hand, "My name is Nami..."
"Ahh
Nami suddenly withdrew her arm.
It may be that I discovered the current scene, and it doesn't seem to be a good place to make friends.
Bermel's arm was still bleeding, and Ah Jian was also injured and now sat on the ground looking weak.
Luffy turned to look at Bermel again and said, "This aunt, you're Nami's mother... How about we make a deal?"
"Who are you? What kind of trade are you going to make?"
Bermel also didn't trust Luffy just because Luffy saved him and Luffy's age.
After all, Luffy has just shown his combat power, which shows that he is not an ordinary child.
"Introduce myself again, my name is Luffy, and I'm a pirate." Luffy said calmly.
"As for the deal," Luffy's tone suddenly sank, with a hint of chill in his indifference, making the person who heard it shrink involuntarily. "Let Nami follow me to the sea as a pirate, I can kill all the fishmen present!"
"No, you can't!" "Good!"
Two voices, one large and one small, appeared at the same time.
Bermel hurriedly knocked Namira down and blocked Luffy's view.
"What are you looking for Nami! I'll never hand over Nami to someone of unknown origin like you! Bermel said nervously.
Nami poked her head out from behind Belmel, her eyes slightly filled with tears, and said, "I agree to your deal, as long as you kill them all!" I'll follow you out to sea to be a pirate! β
Bermel also has to stop Nami.
Nami mixed Belmel and said, "Promise him, Bermel, or we'll all die today..."
β......β
Bermel looked at the terrifying fish-man in the distance, and then at the seemingly harmless, but more terrifying little boy than the fish-man, and was silent for a while, without speaking.
Luffy grinned, "In that case, the deal is officially established." β
"Be careful!"
Nuoqigao, who had not spoken, suddenly shouted.
"Bastard!"
Croobie, the black ribbon fishman, saw that Luffy actually ignored Big Brother Aaron and injured his own compatriots, and he dared to stand here and chat.
For the first time, he couldn't bear it anymore and attacked without the permission of Big Brother Aaron.
"Fish-man karate!"
Croopie stood on his side, his arms were level with his chest, his palms aimed at Luffy's head, and he slapped them with one palm while Luffy hadn't turned back.
"Smack!"
Luffy didn't look back, just stretched out a palm, easily blocked Kroobi's attack, and grabbed Crowobi's arm.
"You dare to disturb the navigator I booked, it's really bold."
Luffy's eyes suddenly turned cold, and the evil qi on his body was slowly released.
The air froze for a while, and a faint smell of blood emanated from Luffy's body.
Grabbing Crowobie's force, Crowobi's body fell uncontrollably towards Luffy, and Luffy's other hand clenched into a fist and aimed at the fishman's head.
"The first one."
"Poof..."
A headless fish-man corpse fell to the ground.
γDing! The host kills a Fishman cadre and gains 890 experience. γ
