Chapter 51: Cotillard
Apotsund.
It is one of the seven major routes of the Great Route.
There are perennial wars, mafia fights, revolts among the people, sweeps by the king's army, and pirates invade...
Some wars have been planned for a long time, while others have been improvised.
Anyway, it's not peaceful here.
............
Luffy, who single-handedly fought against the power of nature, also woke up after three days of sleep.
After nearly a month or so of sailing at sea with Robin, they finally came to this deserted island.
Randomly finding a nearby shore where they could dock, Luffy and Robin finally ended their long life of sailing and wandering.
"Where's the mafia that Doflamingo said he was talking about?" Luffy got off the boat and stretched, took a deep breath of the earthy air, and said.
"Would you like to get in touch now, Mr. Luffy?" Robin pulled out a small phone bug from his chest and said.
"Hmm......
Forget it, let's take a look first. Luffy thought for a moment and replied.
Starting work as soon as you come up will make people feel unmotivated.
"Okay." Robin smiled, his right hand stroked his long hair, his eyes and teeth were bright, and he captivated the country and the city.
It's a pity that Luffy, who was walking in front, didn't see anything.
Since the storm, Robin's attitude towards Luffy has changed, and he is no longer the one who had to work because he was afraid.
The current Robin is obedient to any decision made by Luffy, and any words are taken to heart, but what makes Luffy strange is that the partner system has not responded for a long time.
"It's still early anyway, let's take our time..."Luffy thought and didn't pay too much attention to it.
Everyone is yours, so will her heart be far away?
Walking out of the coast and through a small dense forest, Luffy appears in front of a slightly old town.
The city wall is more than three meters high, the gates are open in all directions, and there is no one to guard it at all.
As soon as you enter the city, a smell of decay wafts through your nose.
The streets were depressed, few shops were open at all, and even some of the shop signs were so tattered that a gust of wind could blow them off, compared to the city of Camos, it was like heaven and earth.
Fortunately, there are still some pedestrians on both sides of the street, otherwise Luffy would definitely feel like he has entered a ghost town, although he would rather see what the ghost town looks like.
Stepping on the potholed marble road, Luffy decided to find a cleaner hotel to rest first, and Robin was quiet, following Luffy step by step.
From a small alley in front of Luffy, a group of children suddenly ran out, dressed in tatters, and their shoes were also exposed holes, talking and laughing all the way to Luffy.
A brown-haired, slightly taller boy than the other kids ran in the middle of the line.
The children met Luffy and scattered, avoiding Luffy and Robin, and the brown-haired boy turned back to talk to the children behind him, as if he didn't notice Luffy, and suddenly crashed into Luffy's arms.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! ”
The little boy bowed deeply twice in a panic, apologized again and again, and then seemed to be afraid that Luffy would be angry, and hurriedly walked away.
"Smack."
Luffy grabbed the boy by the arm and stopped him from leaving.
He picked the boy up and shook him twice.
"Whoa. Hooh.."
A money bag containing gold coins fell from the boy's body, and the mouth of the bag was broken, and the yellow gold coins were scattered all over the ground.
This is the "private money" that Luffy deliberately brought with him in order to prevent him from getting separated from Robin.
The boy's pupils shrank, and when he saw the gold coins all over the ground, the first thing he thought about was not greed and pity, but deep fear.
He thought it was just an ordinary money bag, but he didn't expect it to contain a huge amount of gold.
When the children who ran over saw the boss being caught, they stopped and looked at him worriedly.
Realizing that the man in front of him was not something he could afford to mess with, the brown-haired child hurriedly turned his head and shouted, "Run!" Leave me alone! ”
The children hesitated, then scattered into the surrounding alleys, and after a while disappeared without a trace.
"Heh, you're righteous." As soon as Luffy let go of his hand, the little boy fell directly to the ground.
A pair of hands stretched out from the ground, put the gold coins back in the bag and tied them again, and then another hand appeared at the junction of the hand and the ground, two hands......
The money bag was handed to Luffy.
"Thanks, Robin."
The arm disappeared with a "bang", turning into petals, and finally dissipating into the air.
The little boy was stunned the whole time, looking at Luffy and the two like monsters.
"Get up and take us to a place to eat." Luffy glared at the little boy coldly and said lightly.
The little boy was silent, quickly stood up, and walked deeper into the town.
Luffy strode to follow.
Robin smiled at this, and hurriedly followed.
She knew that Mr. Luffy was a very gentle person.
The Nightmare Buddha Song Hotel.
Luffy looked up at the hotel's weird name.
Followed the little boy in.
Not to mention, although the name and signboard are a little different, the environment inside the house is still very good.
I booked two rooms directly with the boss, and I didn't go up to see the room, but directly found an empty table in the hall and sat down.
After a while, a large table of dishes was served.
Maybe it's because of the ingredients, it doesn't look very tasty, but it's much better than the dry food on board.
"What's your name?" Luffy, who had eaten a few bites of food, suddenly asked.
The little boy on the side, who was bewildered by the fragrance, drooled a little, as if he was suddenly called up to answer a question when he was sleeping in class, hurriedly said: "Ah! ... My lord... My name is Cotillard! My lord! ”
"Hmm... Cotillard? Sit down and eat. Luffy said lightly.
"What... What?" Cotillard asked, surprised, doubting his ears.
Luffy didn't speak, but Robin opened his mouth and said in her beautiful voice, "Sit down, Mr. Luffy's orders can't be ignored." ”
As he spoke, a hand reached out from the table and handed over a pair of chopsticks.
"Oh, oh!" Cotillard hurriedly took the chopsticks and sat down cautiously, taking small bites of the dish in front of him.
I ate very little, but the food didn't go quickly.
Luffy couldn't stand it anymore, and said helplessly: "Don't put meat in your pocket, I'll let you pack it and take it away after eating it later." ”
Cotillard's arm stopped, trembling slightly, then lowered his head and took a big gulp.
Robin looked at the two of them and smiled, and finished the lunch gently.
...
...
"Brother Tiger, can we still fight back this time?" Deep in the alley, in a dilapidated mansion, a one-eyed man with tattered clothes and even a lot of blood marks said.
There were nearly a hundred people in the house, and the person called Brother Tiger was on a sofa in the center of the house at this time, surrounded by his most trusted cronies.
No one could have imagined that this down-and-out middle-aged man at this time was the boss of the mafia who ruled three cities two months ago.
"Don't worry..."Brother Hu's eyes were deep, and he didn't show defeat, "I had someone bring a letter to that lord last month, and that lord agreed to my conditions.
Soon, someone will be in touch with us! ”
Brother Tiger carefully took out a phone bug from his arms and said.
