“Snoring~~!”
“Hurululu~~~!”
Here, Vivian was sleeping soundly in the corner of the pub.
On the other side, Smoker received a phone call and frowned.
"The Straw Hat Boy has landed on Drum Island? The island with advanced medical science?"
"You're moving very quickly..."
We just received news a few days ago that the Straw Hat Pirates were roaming around Whiskey Peak. Now, just a few days later, they have already arrived at Drum Island.
So if he follows this route, Straw Hat Boy will most likely pass by that superpower with a long history.
"Looks like we have to hurry over and block them." said Smoker.
We have been staying on BBQ Island for several days and have eaten enough delicious food. Now that we have news about the Straw Hat Pirates, it is time to get down to business.
"But...what about the local gangs?" Dashiqi asked.
"It's just a gang organization. If we leave it to Vivian, there shouldn't be any problems, right?"
Smoker glanced at Vivian and said, "Now that this guy is willing to take this step, we have to give him a chance to make a contribution."
He offered to escort Buggy to Impel Down.
He also took the initiative to say that he would arrest local gangsters and help civilians get justice.
He seemed to see again the brave young man who risked his life to save a boatload of civilians two years ago.
"Then I'll stay and continue to help Vivian." Dashiqi said.
Smoker: (?_?)
"Tashigi..are you..."
"No!"
Upon hearing this, Dashiqi's face immediately turned red, and she loudly retorted: "I'm just worried that Vivian will get into trouble if he stays here alone. After all, he has just been promoted to sergeant, and there are many things he doesn't understand. This is the most normal concern between colleagues, it's not what you think at all!"
"I just want to ask, do you think Vivian can't deal with those gangsters...is it necessary for you to be so excited?" Smoker looked confused.
Tashigi: (°ー°〃)
"In that case, I'll stay with you." Cotto also raised his hand: "After all, as a colleague, I also have the obligation to show my concern..."
"I think you didn't eat enough barbecue!"
Upon hearing this, all the soldiers roared at him.
Cotto: “…”
...
About three and a half hours later.
"Hmm..."
Vivian sat up from the ground, stretched, and just as he turned his head, he saw Cotto sitting in front of him, chewing a big stick of meat.
Vivian: “…”
"I've already woken up from my nap, and you're still eating?"
"No way."
Cotto wiped the oil off his mouth and said, "I just happened to be a little hungry, so I took another piece to fill my stomach."
"You get hungry really quickly..."
Vivian couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth.
Cotto is a big eater who can eat five meals a day. Whenever he appears in the cafeteria, he always makes the cafeteria owner nervous and calls for more staff to be sent to the kitchen to deliver meals to Cotto.
And that’s not all.
Look at his fair, clean, tall and thin appearance. It is obvious that this guy not only can eat a lot, but he won't even get fat.
Vivian often expressed confusion about where the food he ate was digested.
"By the way, where's Colonel Smoker?"
"Oh, he went to Alabasta to catch Luffy first."
"What?"
Vivian stood up immediately, "When did he leave?"
"Three hours ago." Cotto chewed his meat and looked at him puzzledly, "What's the problem?"
no problem
Of course there is a problem!
That's the task of the twenty-first master of the big knife.
Do you think you can accomplish a mission of this level just by taking down an ordinary underworld gang
There must be something fishy going on here!
For example, this gang boss was originally a big pirate roaming in the New World. Because he encountered unprecedented powerful enemies and all his companions were killed, he lost the meaning of continuing to adventure, so he chose to retire and settled down on BBQ Island in the first half of the Grand Line, and founded the current gang.
Hmm...very reasonable script.
Vivian quickly simulated several versions of the story in her mind, but without exception, the black stick boss in the story must be very powerful!
After all, the system will not give him such a simple option to allow him to obtain such a generous reward.
so..
"Smoker's thug who could help with the mission has escaped. Isn't the danger level of our Teme now greatly increased?"
"Mission? What mission? Have you received any other mission that I don't know about?" Couto asked.
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you."
Vivian scratched her hair speechlessly. She was feeling depressed when she saw Dashigi running in hurriedly with Xiaoye Shiyu slung around her waist.
"Vivian, I got the news. Those guys are gambling in the town's casino. Do you want to go and wipe them out right away?"
"You didn't leave either?" Vivian blinked.
"You want me to leave?" Dashiqi asked back.
"Well... that's fine. One more person means more assurance."
Vivian nodded.
Tashigi is an excellent swordsman after all. Although he doesn't know whether this woman has reached the standard of a "swordsman" now, it should be enough to hold back one or two small bosses, right
Thinking in his heart, Vivian took out a cigar and put it in his mouth, and said with a serious expression: "Where is the casino? Take me to see it."
...
"I have a question."
On the way, Cotto suddenly spoke.
"Just ask directly." Vivian blew out a puff of smoke and looked at him, signaling him to fart quickly.
"Where do you get your cigar from?"
"Oh, when I first entered the pub, I saw a box on the table. I thought it was a gift from you, so I just took it away." Vivian said casually.
Cotto: “…”
Dashiqi: "..."
Colonel Smoker, you should be swearing loudly on the warship right now, right
The two thought so.
"arrive."
Soon, Vivian, Cotto and Dashiki appeared at the door of a casino. The three of them looked up at the plaque hanging above the store.
"Jack Casino."
Jack
No way..
Vivian swallowed subconsciously.
Could it be the casino opened by Drought Jack
But I haven’t heard in the original work that the Beasts Pirates are involved in such a wide range of businesses.
"Aren't all the territories of the Four Emperors in the New World?"
and..
With Jack's IQ, he probably can't open a casino, right
