Ever since Gretel proposed the method of practicing Haki, the atmosphere on the entire Straw Hat ship seems to have changed!
Although it is still full of laughter, it is always accompanied by a few words: "Just wait for me tomorrow!"
Such words not only do not relieve the person who is being beaten, but make the person who is beating beat harder!
You're going to get beaten tomorrow anyway, so why not beat you harder today?
Especially Zoro and Sanji.
These two are really ruthless!
It's getting better and better every day!
The other four people were all frightened when they saw it!
Fortunately, people in this world can recover quickly even if they are seriously injured.
Otherwise, Sanji and Zoro would have been useless!
After several days of sailing, everyone finally saw the island in the distance!
Logue Town is right there! This place has seen the beginning and the end of a legend!
The place where Roger, the Pirate King, was born and died.
When Luffy heard this, he was very excited and jumped all over the place!
The news that the Going Merry was anchored in the port quickly spread throughout the town!
As the most important pass guarding the entrance from the East Blue to the Grand Line, the colonel stationed is Smoker, who possesses the smoke natural Devil Fruit!
This person is much more powerful than Gretel.
He is the kind who holds three cigars together in his mouth!
I seriously think that Smoker spent most of his salary on cigars!
It was so much more expensive than ordinary cigarettes, but he smoked three of them at the same time.
If it weren't for the smoke fruit, he would have died long ago.
Smoker was sitting in his office. His reputation has become so loud recently that many pirate groups dare not come here to collect supplies.
This also makes Smoker very leisurely.
Almost no pirates were caught!
Therefore, the pirates who can appear in this town are basically very low-key and do not dare to show off at all. It is precisely because of his guarding that the recent Logue Town has become the safest town.
"Sigh, it's really boring, ever since I came to this small place from the Navy Headquarters~"
Smoker put his legs on the desk in front of him and leaned on the chair. He was very bored!
But at this moment, there was an emergency call. The voice pushed open the door of his office!
"Colonel Smoker!"
"Oh no!"
"The ship of the Straw Hat Pirates, the pirate group with the highest bounty in the East Blue, is parked in the port!"
The navy who came in had all their hats gone.
This is very big news. Ever since the Straw Hats were put on a bounty, they seemed to have disappeared.
Now that they appear in Logue Town, their goal will be obvious. It must be the Grand Line!
"Straw Hat Pirates!"
Smoker's decadent state suddenly became extremely energetic!
This is the most powerful pirate group in East Blue, because the total bounty of the entire group is as high as 92 million!
In East Blue, the average bounty per capita is 3 million but a pirate group actually has a bounty of nearly 100 million, which is enough to explain a lot of problems!
If they don't take advantage of the last chance in Logue Town to catch them, then they will go to the Grand Line!
This will also become a shame on Smoker's resume!
"Bring troops to surround their ship!"
After saying a word, Smoker's figure had disappeared!
Only the strong smoke he spat out remained in the room.
At the same time, after the Straw Hats were ejected ashore by Luffy, Several people spread out and went to buy what they needed.
Sanji was responsible for finding various ingredients, and Zoro needed to find a good knife.
His ordinary knife had been broken for a long time.
Luffy was going to take a look at the execution platform where Roger was executed.
See with your own eyes the place where Roger, the Pirate King, last appeared!
As for Nami, as the only girl on the ship, of course she is going shopping!
Using her supreme bargaining skills, it can make the store manager cry every time.
As for Gretel, he can just stroll around.
In this way, the group of people dispersed and agreed to meet up later!
Usopp also wanted to go collect a lot of supplies and get ready to enter the Grand Line!
Just look at the backpack behind him for a moment.
The backpack is taller than him.
"By the way, I still need some goggles!"
Usopp said
"A good sniper must of course protect his eyes!"
Thinking like this, he walked towards a shop.
Soon, Usopp fell in love with one of the goggles at a glance.
But when he was about to pay for it, he felt a little embarrassed!
There was no time when luffy ejected everyone. He didn't bring much money!
The proprietress seemed to notice Usopp's embarrassment and taunted him: "Don't buy it if you don't have money!"
Usopp was also furious, but for a moment he had no reason to refute the proprietress.
At this time, an extremely cute girl walked in.
She was wearing a Lolita princess outfit, and even her golden hair was curled into three shapes behind her back.
Except for a few freckles on her face, she is no different from a perfect little princess!
"Boss, I want these goggles!"
As soon as the little girl came in, she fell in love with the goggles that Usopp had just spotted.
She paid the money without any hesitation and took the goggles.
Before leaving, she did not forget to taunt Usopp: "Don't come to buy if you don't have money, uncle!"
Carol glanced at Usopp with disdain and walked out of the store arrogantly.
Usopp was already very unhappy, but after being ridiculed by her, he ran in front of Carol to stop her.
"Hey, who do you think is the uncle?"
Usopp said.
The only person on their ship who looks like an uncle is Gretel, right?
"You want to call me big brother, do you understand? Little brat! Usopp said with a look of displeasure on his face
"I'm so annoyed. If you keep doing this, I'm going to call the Navy! The naval colonel here and I are friends! It's that Uncle Smoker who likes to smoke!"
"navy?"
Usopp rolled his eyes and said confidently: "Navy?" I'm not afraid, I'm Usopp, the great pirate with a bounty of 38 million on his head from the navy!"
"Even if a naval captain sees me, he will be scared and run away!"
"Are you a pirate?"
Carol suddenly gave a strange look, and then shouted behind Usopp: "Dad, dad, there is a pirate here who says he is a pirate with a bounty of 38 million!"
"ah?"
Daddi quickly came to his daughter's side. He was really shocked when he heard the reward of 38 million.
Then, he picked up a brand new stack of reward posters that he had just taken from the navy and Opened it to take a look
"Seven hundred thousand!"
"Six hundred thousand!"
"One million and three hundred thousand!"
"Appeared! Thirty-eight million!"
Daddy looked up and saw that this person looked exactly like the 38 million person in the photo.
Daddy thought Usopp was just a brat who liked to talk big. That's all, but when he turned over a few more posters, he suddenly discovered it!
"Straw Hat Pirates crew member, Usopp, has a bounty of 8 million Berry! Daddi took a breath and said: "Although it is not as exaggerated as he said, eight million is not a small amount in East Blue, and his captain, is a real 38 million berries!""
Daddy backed down.
He was not afraid of Usopp, but felt that it was unnecessary.
He just wanted to live a good life with his daughter now, and if he had no money, he would hunt down a few pirates with no more than one million berries reward for the household expenses
"Carol, let's go."
Daddy said.
He didn't want to bet his life because of some unknown factors. If he died, Carol would be living on the streets!
"Hey, why are you leaving like this? Give me the goggles and I will give you the money!"
Usopp shouted.
Carol also shook his father's hand and said, "Dad is the most powerful person in the world, how can he be afraid of this pirate with a bounty of eight million on his head!"
Daddy smiled awkwardly, touched Carol's head and said, "Good girl, if daddy is not careful, we will be in danger!"
At this time, the more Usopp looked at Daddy, the more familiar he became.
He finally remembered it!
"You are Daddy, right?"
Usopp said loudly!
It is said that this man was once a genius sniper in the navy. Later, for some unknown reason, he became a pirate hunter who specializes in hunting low bounties!
Although he is very famous, Usopp is no longer the coward he used to be!
"how? Want the goggles? Daddy stood up and said:"
Since we recognize each other, let's duel!""
Daddy doesn't know what's going on. It may be because of Usopp's words, but more likely, he doesn't want to lose his majestic image in front of his daughter! After all, he is a real daughter-controller.
"duel?"
Usopp was a little worried.
This person doesn't want to kill him and get the eight million bounty!
Usopp thought so, he was really worried, his friends were not around!
However, as a brave man, and a sea warrior, how could he refuse such a sacred thing as a duel!
If he didn't agree today, wouldn't he become a coward again?
"Okay, let's have a duel to decide who owns the goggles!"
Usopp happily agreed!
