Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Gatekeeper of Rogue Town

Luffy led Zoro to find a hotel closer to the dock, opened two single rooms, and directly chartered it for half a year.

Anyway, it's all money from the dragon pirate ship, and it's not distressing to spend it at all.

The innkeeper didn't cheat on Luffy just because of his age.

After all, he watched Luffy drag a strange thing down from the large pirate ship.

None of the owners who can open a store in such a place are stupid.

Dumped Sauron casually in one of the rooms.

Under the boss's awe-inspiring and curious expression, Luffy took out the long-cherished bounty list, pointed and asked, "Is there any nearby here?"

The innkeeper shook his head quickly.

Even if you know about this kind of thing, you have to pretend that you don't know.

Otherwise, the next person to lose his head must be who.

"Well, it looks like I'll have to find it myself."

Luffy looked at each bounty slip in his hand in disappointment.

"It's better to hurry up, after all, you can turn on the overlord color domineering soon!"

Thinking of that handsome overlord color domineering, Luffy can't wait to brush up on the experience!

Luffy's beautiful Luffy opened the attributes, wanting to appreciate the attribute points that are about to break 500 again.

"Spiritual attributes, 476...soon..."

Luffy was suddenly stunned, blinked, and looked at it carefully.

[Spirit: 476]

"System! System! Come out! What's going on?! Luffy hurriedly shouted in his head.

[Answer the host, this is because Sauron died in the mental space, causing mental damage and causing a slight delay in the growth of spiritual attributes.

However, the host can rest assured that this will not cause permanent damage to Sauron, and it will take about a year or so to fully recover, and it will be more sophisticated. 】

"Poof..."

Luffy spat out a mouthful of old blood inside.

Zoro, Zoro, you are too worry-free, I'm going to turn on the overlord color, why did you come here at this time.

Glancing at Zoro's attribute panel, it was indeed much less than the spiritual attributes that had been increased every day in the past.

"Is that really okay?" Luffy asked, still a little worried.

[Please rest assured that this will help speed up the growth of Sauron.] 】

"That's good.

Alas..."

The overlord color, which could have been opened when it was upgraded to level seventeen, seems to be delayed for a while.

The originally excited mood instantly cooled a little.

"It's not serious, is it......

It's about waiting a little longer.

Forget it, it doesn't matter......

It's just that this kind of thing is beyond my plan.

I'm still so sad! ”

Luffy walked down the street, feeling sad in his heart over and over again.

He was going to the naval base to update the latest bounty list, after all, it was a long time ago.

Luffy doesn't think that these weak chickens can live so long, so he still has to keep up with the times.

The naval base is on the edge of town.

Gradually, Luffy has moved away from the downtown area, and the people in the neighborhood are becoming more and more rare.

"Huh?" Luffy, who was concentrating on walking, suddenly found himself being followed.

"Interesting..."Luffy's mouth curled.

If you can follow yourself, if you don't find out that you are unusual, you must be a child trafficker.

There shouldn't be any powerful characters in this town.

In this way, the latter two people must be human traffickers.

Originally, it was a little low because of the attributes, but now something fun has finally happened.

Luffy pretended not to know anything and continued walking.

This time, it wasn't in the direction of the naval base, but a path that Luffy picked up casually that no one was on.

Luffy walked slower and slower, and kept muttering in his heart: "These two stupid people, there is no one around, and you still don't do it?"

Just a few moments after Luffy finished muttering, the two guys in the back finally started to act.

One of them quickly covered Luffy's mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and then picked Luffy up.

The other person also quickly opened a snakeskin bag, loaded Luffy into it, and ran away.

The two of them acted in one go, and the cooperation was intimate, and it was not the first time they had done this kind of thing.

Luffy was in the sack, enduring the bumps, and spit out the handkerchief in his mouth.

There should be a kind of anesthetic on it, which has a strange smell, but unfortunately with Luffy's physical strength, this anesthetic has long since worked.

Luffy was lying in a snakeskin bag, and he could hear the conversation between the two traffickers outside.

"This is already the sixth in this batch!"

"That's right! This time, the boss will definitely be indispensable to the reward of the two of us. ”

"When we have saved enough money, let's buy a boat and go to sea to find the treasure of One Piece!"

"You must buy a big boat and drive it home first, so that the people in the village can see it!"

“......”

Luffy listened to the gossip of the two people all the way and made great plans.

In about half an hour, I should have arrived at the trafficker's lair.

There was a strange knock on the door, like some code.

"Squeak..."

The door was opened.

"In stock?"

"In stock!"

Without extra words, the gatekeeper put the two traffickers inside.

Luffy sensed the traffickers going down the stairs, which was supposed to be an underground base.

After walking for a while, the snakeskin bag containing Luffy was put down.

The mouth of the bag was opened, and Luffy took the initiative to get out of it.

"This kid is awake! Are you running out of medicine?" The man who opened the bag wondered.

The other person hurriedly said, "Impossible! My hands are shaking this time, more than usual! ”

"Forget it, it's all the same anyway."

After saying that, he grabbed Luffy by the collar, lifted Luffy up, and put him in an iron cage.

There are still five children in the cage, two boys and three girls, all of whom are about five years old and still don't know much about things, but these children are dull-eyed and dizzy, and they look like they have been drugged.

As far as the eye can see, there are more than a dozen such cages, and each cage has at least one child in it.

"Did you get it?" The voice of the gatekeeper just asked.

"Alright, alright." The two replied in unison.

The gatekeeper's voice continued: "Okay, come to the hall, there is a meeting today." ”

"Oh, okay, here we go."

The trafficker duo packed up their tools and left the warehouse in a hurry.

Luffy saw that it was quiet again, put his hands on the iron railing, and with a slight break, an exit of about the same size appeared to Luffy.

Walking out of the warehouse where the children were kept, an indistinct voice came from a distance.

Luffy's ears moved, he judged the specific direction, and walked over.

As the distance gets closer, the voice becomes clearer and clearer.

"In the near future, we have to be more restrained, my intelligence says that the navy is going to crack down on small-scale criminal gangs like ours recently, and after selling this batch of slaves, I will take everyone to run merchant ships, and do regular business for a period of time first......

The people inside were still talking about something.

A voice asked: "Boss, we are all from petty theft, let us run a regular business, we can't do it..."

"Idiot! I have said that I have been cracking down hard recently, and I can't commit crimes against the wind. Said the speaker at the beginning.

"Boss, why don't you give me the buyer's contact information, I'll continue to work with a few brothers, and the boss will go out first to avoid the limelight." A shrill voice said.

The boss said angrily: "I think you want to go solo!" ”

A sharp voice said calmly, "That's not the case, boss.

It's just that the brothers are used to such huge profits, and if they go to do something else, I'm afraid that the brothers will complain..."

"Bang!"

The boss punched the wall, and a loud bang erupted.

"Don't be angry, Boss.

By the way, I came in a hurry today and forgot to introduce it. ”

The man with a sharp voice pointed to a muscular man next to him and said, "This is Bob, the executioner, let's get to know each other." ”

Hearing the name "Bob", the boss's face suddenly turned pale.

Bob stood up, and the man in a sharp voice continued: "Brother Bob is a pirate with a bounty of five million, and he wants to make a sum of money recently, Brother Bob heard about our business, he is very interested, and is willing to be a guarantor for us, let Brother Bob say a few words..."

"Uh...... Forehead ......"

"Plop..."

Bob choked on a few times in his throat and fell to the ground, revealing a small child behind him, whose right hand was stained with blood.

"Let's let Big Brother Luffy tell you a few words..."Luffy said with a sweet smile.

After a while.

Luffy walked out of the trafficker's secret base and headed straight for the naval base, telling a navy about the situation.

Although the navy didn't believe Luffy's words very much, he thought that a gang of traffickers had been mentioned a lot recently, so he followed Luffy by mistake.

Then, he saw more than thirty corpses in the hall and the missing children below.

At this point, Luffy's name was completely remembered by the navy of Rogue Town.

As time passed, more and more people came to know the name [Demon Boy. Luffy].

It is rumored that the person he targeted never lived to the next day.

All of a sudden, the underworld organization in Rogue disappeared, and the pirates on their way to the Great Voyage began to bypass Rogue and abandon supplies.
