I reached the top of Pirates

Chapter 182 181. It’s more fun when there are more people!
"The oranges here are quite delicious."

One day later, in the afternoon, we bought a batch of early oranges from Kekoyasi Village. High in the sky, sitting on Xiong Bao's back, Yamato said with a grin:

"So you always buy orange wine from them."

Yamato was sitting in the front, eating a big bag of oranges in his arms while talking.

Mercer nodded and smiled:

"Well, we'll go to Rogue Town to buy some supplies. We'll fly over the Calm Belt early tomorrow morning and spend the night on Drum Island the day after tomorrow. If we fly at full speed, we'll reach Alabasta the day after tomorrow."

"So fast?"

Yamato asked in surprise.

"It's not that fast. After all, we flew from a high altitude and took a shortcut."

"Brother. Is Drum Island the place where you lived as a child?"

Eri, who was sitting in Messer's arms, asked curiously.

"Well, that's good. I'll take you there to see it and try the local specialties." Messier said with a smile.

Yamato asked in confusion, "What's the specialty?"

Xiong Bao, who had transformed into the Wind God Pterosaur below, chuckled and said:
"Venison hot pot or roasted labang."

"Uh, what the hell is venison hot pot? And what is Labang?"

Moses said helplessly:

"When I was a kid, there were several herds of reindeer there, so I would occasionally catch some and eat them. Labang is a giant carnivorous rabbit."

Yamato turned his head and blinked, “I remember Chopper was from the same island as you guys.

He is truly blessed with a long life."

Mercer laughed and said, "We didn't catch many back then. Besides, I wasn't the only one catching them. Those reindeer were very smart.

But remember not to tell Chopper about it when you get back, or I won’t take you to eat there.”

"Okay, I understand. I'll keep it a secret."

Yamato said with a grin.

Galloping all the way.

When it gets dark.

Xiong Bao flew to Rogue Town.

Landing on a secluded rooftop.

After a while, the three people and the panda arrived at the main street.

I went to a hotel to check in first.

I bought a batch of daily necessities for a year, a thickened tent and several blankets and bedding.

It’s unknown how long they will stay in the vast desert of Alabasta this time, and Messer is ready to fight a protracted war.

Bought a lot of drinks.

I also bought some water storage barrels, so I don’t need to buy fresh water.

After all, both Messer and Yamato can gather water from the environment.

After buying the supplies, it was already completely dark, but the streets were still crowded with people. It was the busiest time of the night, and several people were walking and eating on the streets.

At a barbecue stall.

Eat barbecue and drink iced drinks.

At this time.

A group of three came over and ordered skewers and drinks in a familiar manner.

One of them was a girl of twelve or thirteen with short pink shoulder-length hair.

She has side bangs that cover the right half of her face, and the delicate eyebrows above her left eye are quite interesting, forming a counterclockwise circular eyebrow.

"Sister Reiju, don't you think our new president is very mysterious? It's been almost a year, and we haven't even met her face."

"Who says it's not? I heard that our Global Times is already the largest newspaper in the East China Sea, but the president is very mysterious."

"Also, I heard that our president is ruthless and has swallowed up many newspapers. I heard from the president of our Rogue Town branch that there is a bounty of nearly 10 million Baileys on the black market for our president."

There was a chirping sound next to my ears, which was the source of some interesting information.

Yamato blinked, moved closer to Messer, nudged his shoulder with his elbow, and whispered curiously:

"Messer! Which of you three has a bounty on the black market?"

Moses smiled strangely:

"It's Makino. It's like a pot falling from the sky while you're sitting at home."

"It's not you?"

Xiong Bao grunted and ate a handful of skewers, laughing softly:
"What about you? Aren't you the boss behind the scenes?"

Mercer glanced at it calmly and said, "On the surface, I'm just an ordinary thug leader of the Global Times.

Unlike you, the ambassador of the DOSKOI PANDA (Hey Panda) brand clothing."

Xiong Bao chuckled and waved his hands repeatedly, "Xiong didn't want to either, but it was because that woman Mira gave too much."

The time of eating and drinking passed quickly.

Moses and his companions paid the bill and left.

But before leaving, he glanced at Reiju.

Just curious.

This girl is actually here.

Did he run away from home?
Seeing the strange group of four people next door leave, Reiju secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The news she just heard was too explosive.

I am a genetically modified human.

The five senses are naturally sharp.

I listened to every word they said just now.

If they hadn't lied, he might have accidentally discovered the biggest secret of the organization he was currently serving.

There are three bosses in the organization.

One of them is called Makino.

And the biggest boss behind the scenes turned out to be the rumored executioner.

My head feels a little dizzy.

I don’t know if it was because I drank too much beer.

Or maybe I was too excited to hear the explosive information.

His eyes involuntarily turned to the back of Messier in the crowd.

At this moment, Messer seemed to sense something and looked back. The next moment, Messer's dark eyes met a pair of beautiful purple eyes.

Suddenly, Reiju's heart skipped a beat, but she looked away calmly.

Xiong Bao asked Moser curiously,

"What are you looking at?"

"nothing."

"Oh, by the way, Mercer, that pink-haired girl from earlier seems to be Reiju from Germa. Why is she here?
He even became an employee of our newspaper. Do you think Germa discovered that we were the ones who did it?"

"I don't know, but it's not impossible. I'll call Robin later and ask her to keep an eye on this little guy."

"With Robin's skills, he'll figure it out quickly."

"Yes, that scheming woman Robin is indeed powerful."

"How can you say that? Even though Robin is indeed evil, you can't say that behind his back. You have to say it to his face."

"Pfft! Mercer, are you trying to make me laugh to death?"

Yamato laughed out loud like a goose.

Eri muttered quietly, "Sister Robin is a very nice person. Why don't I feel that she has a dark side?"

The corner of Messer's mouth twitched. If Robin is so mean to you, then she is really not a human being.

All the way back to the hotel.

Wash and sleep.

Early the next morning.

After breakfast.

Everyone set off.

After flying at high speed in the sky for a whole day, around six o'clock in the afternoon, when Xiong Bao was a little exhausted, he finally saw several cylindrical peaks not far away.

Had a barbecue outdoors.

Took them skiing in Kesda.

After a long time, I returned to the tree house in the forest.

Rested here for one night.

Early the next morning.

Had breakfast in town.

Xiong Bao continued his difficult mount mission.

We had a seafood buffet at the sea at noon, which took up some time.

Around 8pm.

The climate suddenly became dry.

We have arrived at Saint Island-Alabasta.

This is a very large desert island.

Very magical and magnificent.

There are countless unknown creatures living on it.

Alabasta only occupies the coastal area of the island.

Even Alabasta, a thousand-year-old nation, is not quite sure what is inside.

Port city - rapeseed flowers.

On the sandy ground at the edge of the city.

Xiong Bao fell from the sky.

He breathed heavily.

He took out a barrel of fruit wine from his mouth, opened the lid, and drank half of it in one breath.

Only then did I feel comfortable.

"Next time the bear won't fly so fast."

Xiong Bao was too tired to complain.

Moses stretched himself.

"Let's go, as usual. First, let's check in at a hotel, then have dinner. Then you guys go buy some desert clothes while I go find some place to gather some information."

Yamato laughed, "Okay then, it's decided."

After a while, I was walking through the crowd.

Arrived at a high-end hotel.

Front desk.

Mercer asked, "Hello, a triple suite."

The girl at the front desk said with embarrassment:

"I'm sorry, sir, due to some recent events, our place is fully booked. There are no vacancies.

I’m so sorry.”

Mercer shook his head and asked:

"Is it just your hotel, or are all the hotels in Youcaihua sold out?" The receptionist blinked. "Some ordinary hotels should still have vacancies, but the environment there probably isn't very good.

If you guys want to stay somewhere more suitable, it would be best to look for a B&B or a more special hotel."

Yamato also blinked and asked curiously:

"What's so special about a special hotel?"

The bar girl looked at Dahe and then covered her mouth with her hands and laughed secretly:
"Little sister, I advise you not to know. It's still a little too early for you to know those things."

Yamato was confused and wanted to ask more questions, but Messer silently grabbed her delicate red devil horn and looked at the girl at the bar:

"Where is that?"

Blinking, she glanced at the few people calmly, and then, after a 1,000-dollar bill, the bar girl gave in.
"It's right there. Do you need me to find someone to take you there?"

"unnecessary."

Moses rejected it out of hand.

Take them straight to their destination.

A bathing center covering a large area.

Messier paid and booked a private room.

Led by a charming woman.

Came into a private room.

The interior area is 100 square meters.

The ground was covered with a bright red carpet, scattered with rose petals. In the middle, against the wall, was a large gray-black water bed with a diameter of five meters, covered with flower petals.

The four of them didn't feel crowded at all sleeping here.

Next to the window is a large marble swimming pool that is ten meters long and four meters wide.

Filled with clean water and sprinkled with flower petals.

In Alabasta, it is the highest level of enjoyment and very expensive for one night.

He took the room key and waved the woman away.

Yamato walked over curiously, sat down on the bed, and rolled around on it, making a puffing sound. Suddenly, Yamato grinned and said:

"Messer, you know what, this bed is quite comfortable and soft."

He rolled his eyes. How could Bailey, who made millions in one night, not feel comfortable?

"We've found a place to stay, so let's go out for dinner."

Yamato jumped up.

"Let's go. Let's finish our work quickly so I can come back and take a shower and go to bed."

Lock the door.

Then Moses and his four companions left.

After shopping on the street and eating.

Yamato and the other two went to buy sun-protective clothes for the desert.

Mercer found himself alone in an underground bar.

The room was filled with smoke and the smell of cigarettes and alcohol.

There are all kinds of people here.

Ordered a bottle of wine.

Sitting alone in a seat in the corner, I listened silently to the information discussed here.

Although I don't know if it's useful.

But bars are often also where information flows most.

The ears are clear and the eyes are clear.

Moses looked at the people here calmly.

The reason why we found this place is because we sensed through our disguised observation Haki that there were many powerful auras here.

Looking at the people here at this moment, and comparing them with the bounty orders in his memory, there is a pirate captain with a bounty of 110 million, and a bounty hunter who is said to have hunted pirates worth over 100 million.

There is also an unknown person who is no less famous than them.

All three of them.

Strength rating: C+
"Jiejiejiejie."

Bounty Hunter Elati was a well-proportioned man with slender fingers. He looked at the pirate Flame Blade Esidon, whose bounty exceeded 100 million, and smiled happily:
"I didn't expect it to be you. What a strange thing to meet. Are you also interested in the treasure here? Pirates are really shit."

Esidon had regular features, black hair, and a small mustache on his chin. He curled his lips when he heard his words:
"Then what kind of shit are you, the one chasing shit all day and having your eyes light up when you catch it? Get out of here, you faggot."

"you"

"What do you mean by 'you'? I don't want to bother with you right now. If you keep whining, I'll kill you with a knife. The sight of you makes me sick."

"Click!" The sound of a firearm being loaded sounded.

Esidon looked at him indifferently, "This is that person's property. If you have the guts, give it a try. If you're not afraid of death, then give it a try."

Ailati's face changed, but he still had to give face to Du Feld, the king of the underworld.

She put down the gun, touched the scar on her face, and glared at him with hatred.

Suddenly, there was nothing fun to watch, and the whispers of conversation in the bar began again.

People who come here have heard that the deep desert is very dangerous, so they come here to form teams and go on an adventure together.

Although there is no trust in them at all, they are still cannon fodder, so the more they have, the better.

"I heard that many big names will come and get involved this time."

“I’ve also heard about the Seven Warlords of the Sea Crocodile, that Gekko Moriah, and the Lizard King Hanafza.

Tsk tsk tsk, these three are all big shots."

"That's nothing. I also heard that someone recently saw the recently famous navy hunter, Jurakol Mihawk, in the surrounding waters."

"That's nothing. I also heard that the King of Usury, Dufeld, and that big news, Morganse, will also be coming, and the Queen of Pleasure Street will also be here."

"Hey, is that Lady Stussy, the Queen of Pleasure Street? Her luxurious dancing ship will be here too, right?"

"Hey Hey."

"Hey Hey."

Messer shook his head speechlessly, not knowing who had led the building astray. He was speechless. There was no important intelligence, but the people from all sides were really a mixed bag.

"Hey, I heard the navy has also come over, and there are three vice admirals, one is Chaton Kaji, one is Doberman, and the other is Onigumo.

All three are tough guys.”

The scene suddenly fell silent.

Then someone sneered:

"What does the navy have? So many big pirates will come. I also heard that some pirates from the New World will come too. They are already busy with their own affairs, so how can they care about us?

Are you stupid?"

"Who are you scolding? Do you want to die?"

Mercer drank the fruit wine in one gulp, threw a few Baileys on the table, and walked out of this smoky place.

I then went to a few more bars and got some true and some false information, but I did gain something else as well.

I heard that there are many powerful people in other cities now.

Walking on the street, Messer's eyes flashed slightly, and his figure flashed as he ran into an alley on the side and disappeared in an instant.

A few seconds later, a figure with a well-proportioned figure and slender fingers walked in, drooling and looking depressed:
"Fuck, where are the people?"

Messer disguised his body to blend in with the environment, and looked at him indifferently two meters away. He had followed him all the way, and he could spot him not far away every time he went to a bar. The next second, the figure appeared beside him, and a cold light slashed through the back of his neck.

The figure of Moses walked out into the street from behind him.

Ailati only felt a chill on the back of his neck, and then his pupils shrank. After a few seconds, his right hand stretched back and blood spurted out.

His knees went weak and he fell to the ground.

His head hit the ground hard.

A few seconds later, a soul crystal as big as a pigeon egg flew over and Messer put it away.

[Obtain C+ grade soul crystal*1]

Left this street.

The episode passed by in a flash.

As his breathing rose and fell, he achieved a state of unity between man and nature, in tune with the surrounding environment. His sense of sight and hearing spread out, enveloping this rapeseed flower city.

A series of complex auras broke into the perception.

After a moment, he blocked out those with strength below C level, and raised his eyebrows slightly:
"There's one B-grade, two B-grades, and nine Cs."

It's becoming more and more interesting.

It's getting more and more lively.

Messer did not go to observe those powerful auras closely. As long as they stayed here, there would be opportunities for contact in the future.

Not urgent.

"It's a bit hot and stuffy, as expected of a desert climate."

The temperature in Alabasta is so high that it doesn't cool down even at night.

After buying a bunch of ice cream and herbal tea at a cold drink shop, Messer took them back to his residence.

Knocked on the door.

Yamato was wearing a swimsuit and his body was still wet with water.

I saw the cold drink in Messer’s hand and took it with a smile, “I want to eat this, it’s too hot here.

Let’s go take a bath.”

Messer looked at Eri, who was also lying in the water, and said with a smile:

"Okay, I'll change my clothes."

Take a shower in the bathroom and change into swimming trunks.

Messi took a dip in the indoor swimming pool.

comfortable.

Looking at Xiong Bao lying motionless in a corner of the water bed covered with a blanket, Mercer asked curiously:
"Why don't you come play in the water?"

Xiong Bao closed his eyes and said:
"I'm so tired. Bear wants to sleep. Mercer, can you bring some cool air into the house?"

The corner of his mouth twitched, and he had quite a few requests.

But as he wished, the cold air and wind caused the temperature in the house to drop sharply.

"Brother, it's a bit cold."

Eri paddled the water with her right foot and spoke to Messer.

Then all that remains is to heat the water.

Had a great time.

After you've had enough fun.

The three of them lay on the comfortable water bed.

Fell asleep comfortably.

The next morning.

Change into desert brown and gray sun-protective clothes.

The four Messers had breakfast.

Leaving the port city of Rapeseed, we crossed the San Dora River that divides Alabasta into two halves and headed towards the oasis city of Rainland, which is located in the innermost part of the desert of Alabasta.

It is the country's closest major city to the desert interior.

want to come
There must be a lot of interesting "people" there.
