The Straw Hat Pirates' ship is leaving, and they're going up a canal that runs through Alabasta, disembarking off the coast inland, and walking across the desert to Albarra, the capital of Alabasta.
Sitting on the boat, Nami leaned on the side of the boat with her chin stuck, looking at the direction they just left.
"What's the matter Nami?" Weiwei walked to her side and asked her, "What are you thinking?"
Nami sighed and said, "I'm thinking, if I went out to sea with Brother Ian when I met him for the first time and became his navigator, what would it be like now..."
"Then do you want to go back?" Weiwei blew the sea breeze, and the wind lifted her long azure blue hair.
"No!" Nami shook her head, then came back to her senses, leaned back on the side of the ship, looked at Luffy and Usopp who were fighting on the ship, and suddenly grinned: "If I leave, the gang Idiots probably don’t even know how to sail a boat, do they?”
Weiwei also smiled heartily. Indeed, Nami is the most indispensable role on this ship.
"Staying with these careless idiots for a long time, it actually feels pretty good!" Nami laughed.
While Nami and Weiwei were feeling emotional, Sanji twirled around and brought them a drink to quench their thirst.
"Hey, Vivi!"
While Nami was drinking, Zoro came to the two of them with an envelope, which looked bulging.
"Vivi!" Sauron said to Vivi, "Should there be a place to sell weapons in Al Raba?"
"Of course!" Weiwei replied, "What are you going to do?"
"I want to buy two new knives!" Sauron said dejectedly, "My original two were cut off by Ian!"
When Nami heard this, she immediately became unhappy. She poked Sauron on the forehead and said, "I just lent you money to buy a knife when I was in Rogge Town, but now you want to buy it again? You are too weak! Why? Will it be chopped off by Brother Yian?"
After being told by Nami, Zoro became even more depressed.
Nami lost her temper and said, "Anyway, if you want to buy a knife, don't ask me, I don't have any money to lend you!"
Sauron said angrily: "You don't need to borrow it, I have money!"
"Huh!?" Hearing what he said, Nami looked at the envelope in Sauron's hand suspiciously, sniffed it suddenly, and snatched the envelope from Sauron's hand.
"Hey! Give it back to me quickly!" Sauron was anxious and wanted to snatch it back.
But Nami has already quickly looked at the contents of the envelope, and sure enough, there is a thick stack of Bailey banknotes in the envelope!
brush! Nami held the stack of money with her hands and rolled it out, she knew it in her heart, and immediately asked Sauron with her hands on her hips, "At least five million Baileys! When did you become so rich!? Is this money for private housekeeping?" ?”
"No way!" Sauron argued loudly, "Ian gave it to me before he left, and said it was for me to buy the knife!"
Nami and Weiwei were taken aback when they heard this, but then they came to their senses. After looking at each other, they couldn't help but smile.
Although he cut off Sauron's knife, Brother Ian still thought about leaving money for Sauron to buy a knife for him. It seems that he really deserves to be a big brother...
"Hmph! Put the money with me for your safekeeping! I'll return it to you when I get to Al Rabah!" Nami said to Sauron: "If you keep it with you, you'll definitely have to spend it to buy wine again! "
Sauron is a guy who likes to drink very much. Nami has figured out his temper during this period of time, so of course she refuses to leave the money in his hands.
Of course Zoro didn't do it, and wanted to get the money back, but he angered Nami, who was hit on the head with a hammer, and was smashed into a big bag, so he had to give up.
Seeing Sauron leaving resentfully, Nami smiled and picked up the banknotes in the envelope, counted them quickly, and it was exactly five million Baileys.
This amount of money was indeed enough for Sauron to buy two good knives.
At this moment, Nami suddenly thought of something, and said: "I can't tell, brother Ian is quite rich, and he has several million Baileys with him..."
"Of course!" Wei Wei nodded aside and said, "I heard from Icarem that when Lord Ian was invited to become the Seven Wukai, he even asked for 10 billion Baileys from the world's noble Tianlongren! At the beginning of this matter, the world government wanted to hide it, but now it has spread among all the franchise countries. I heard that many countries are quite critical of this matter. After all, the tribute to the Tianlong people is from the franchise countries. Pulled out…”
Weiwei talked about this to herself, but she didn't see that Nami's eyes turned into Bailey's symbols!
"One... 10 billion Baileys!?" Nami clasped her hands together and pillowed her cheeks, with a longing and intoxicated look, and said, "Then, isn't Brother Ian a super rich man!?"
"Yes... yes!" Weiwei said in a cold sweat.
"Ah!!" Nami opened her hands and shouted: "I regret it! If I knew this, I should really have followed Brother Ian!"
This was heard by everyone on the boat. Luffy picked his nostrils with his little finger and asked Nami foolishly, "Nami, why did you follow Brother Ian?"
"Shut up!" Nami said fiercely at him: "You poor pirates, don't talk to me now!"
After finishing speaking, Nami lay down on the ship's side in dejection, and said weakly: "Oh, why does a beautiful girl like me become partners with these poor idiots..."
"Hehehehe!" Princess Weiwei had a bead of sweat on her forehead, not knowing how to respond to Nami's words.
Although she also knew that this was just Nami's talk, and she might not necessarily go if she was really told to leave the Straw Hat Pirates to find Ian, but anyway, she had seen Nami on this ship. The position on the boat: This is the queen at all!
However, just now when Sauron said that he wanted to buy a knife, Weiwei suddenly remembered something.
Alabasta is a thousand-year-old country, and there are countless treasures handed down from generation to generation. Weiwei remembers that once, when she secretly went to play in the royal treasure house, she seemed to see a very beautiful knife.
That knife, according to the father, seems to be a famous knife, and it is said that it is one of the 12 crafts of the supreme sharp knife, and it is a weapon treasured by the Neferutali family.
What is it called... Izumi Kanemori or something, it seems to be the name...
If you can save this country with the help of Luffy and the others this time, then please beg your father to give this sword to Sauron, a samurai...
The only pity is that Lord Ian of Shichibukai seems to have something important to do. Otherwise, he might beg for it, or offer the treasure of Alabasta in exchange. I don’t know if I can get him to help...
…………………
"Ah!!"
Ian, who was staying in Rape Flower City, suddenly sneezed.
"Strange! Do I have a cold?" Ian rubbed his nose in doubt: "I shouldn't, I have been in good health since I came to this world! Or is it because someone is talking about me?..."
After sending off the Straw Hat Pirates, Ian and the others continued to stay here, but Reiju and Robin wanted to go shopping, so they separated.
That guy Ace stayed on the boat, he was hungry again, Matthew was in charge of getting him food, and Dorooney also added an extra meal by the way.
As for Ian, bored, he wandered alone in the streets of Rapeseed Flower City.
However, Ian didn't go shopping for a long time, and suddenly found a person covered in a cloth towel walking towards him, brushing past him.
Ian didn't pay attention at first, because there are too many people in this kind of costume in the desert country, but when this person passed by Ian, Ian noticed that the other party stuffed something into his hand .
Ian remained calm, walked to a remote alley next to him, and opened his palms to look.
What the man stuffed was a small note with words written on it.
So Ian suddenly understood that the person just now should be a member of the Revolutionary Army, and this is sending information to them!
Quickly opened the note and took a look, sure enough, there was only one line of small characters on it.
"The Blackbeard Pirates have appeared and will arrive at the port tomorrow!"
After reading it, Ian grabbed the note and waved his fist a little excitedly.
finally come!
