One Piece: The Arm of Fate

For a moment.

A large area in the middle of the dock was vacant.

The End also moored at the shore.

The civilians and sailors who stepped onto the land again immediately left and looked for passenger ships that could carry them back.

As for the remaining slaves whose hometowns were destroyed, they were going to settle down here first according to their previous decision.

After saving some money, they would make other plans.

One of the slaves was obviously much more emotional than the others. He clenched the railing with his rough hands and looked in the direction of the town with red eyes.

Shano remembered him.

It seemed that his name was Pike. He was almost forty years old and was the oldest of the slaves he had rescued.

"What's the matter?" Shano leaned against the side of the ship and asked with a smile.

"It's the city of gourmet food!"

Pike wiped his eyes and couldn't help laughing happily, "My lord! I'm so lucky. Your next stop is here! This is where I worked for more than ten years!"

Oh?

Shano was a little surprised. This luck was really extraordinary.

The other slaves also shouted:

"Eh? What a coincidence, Pike~!"

"Haha, it turns out that we are in your old territory. Then I'll ask you to take care of it next!"

"Don't worry! I have been a porter here for so many years. I know a lot of old acquaintances! I will help you find a job soon!" Pike laughed.

"Have you been back for a long time?" Shano asked again.

"Yes, sir, it's been six or seven years."

Pike sighed, "More than ten years ago, I picked up a child at the dock, and we depended on each other and took root here."

"Until he grew up and was able to support himself as a porter with his strength. I missed my parents, so I separated from him and returned to my hometown. It's been a long time since I last saw him, and I don't know how he is doing now."

"So, you can reunite with your family."

Another strong man next to him hugged his neck and shook him hard, "I really envy you, Pike!"

"It's all the gift of Lord Shano! Otherwise, how could I come back here."

"Of course, haha!"

Several strong men made a fuss with Pike for a while, and thanked Shano and others profusely.

They said goodbye reluctantly.

"Hehe."

Nami leaned on the railing, looking at the backs of the people going away, and said with a smile, "It feels so good to help them regain their lives."

"Yes."

Shano rubbed her head and said with a smile, "Let's go, it's time for us to get off the boat and walk around this island."

Like Zeff, he was very curious about the reason why this food city has regained its prosperity.

Now, it's time to go and find out.

...

The northwest corner of the pier is a civilian residential area on the outskirts of the town.

Pike stopped and looked up at the house in front of him blankly.

The mottled wooden walls and faded blue painted door frames are very ordinary and shabby. The only special thing is that the ceiling and door have been modified and are much higher than the other houses around.

At this moment, this familiar and strange little house is silent in the sun.

Pike tried to tiptoe and stroked the crooked marks above the door frame with his rough palm.

These were all the records made with a blade when he measured the height of the silly child.

That child was almost two meters tall when he was picked up, and he was five or six meters tall when he was fourteen or fifteen.

In a blink of an eye, I haven't seen him for a long time, and I don't know what he looks like now.

His nose was sour, and then he grinned again, pushed open the old wooden door that he hadn't touched for a long time, opened his arms, and laughed:

"Hey, Jack, brat, where are you, daddy, I'm back!!!"

...

At the same time.

The center of the town of the food city.

There are four sightseeing towers here, which are also the highest point of the entire island.

Shano and his friends climbed up one of the towers and looked far away, looking at another pier on the north side of the island.

"So that's it."

His eyes flashed slightly, and he was thoughtful, and he suddenly understood the reason for the city's revival.

Compared with the prosperous and bustling south side pier, this north side pier has few passenger ships docked,

but there is a huge platform.

At this time, everyone happened to hear the long whistle, "Woo-woo-" sound, a dark green steel monster was slowly entering the station with steam.

"This is... a sea train?!"

Nami was stunned at first. Having read countless books on navigation, she suddenly realized:

"No wonder this island can develop again. It turns out that it was selected as a pilot city for the sea train."

"The sea train technology was still in the experimental stage five or six years ago. I didn't expect that it has been laid here now."

Smoker squinted his eyes while holding a cigar:

"In this regard, the World Government has done something serious. There are warships patrolling along the train line from time to time, which can make the pirates much more honest. In addition, the stable material trade transportation..."

"So this place can become a food city again."

Shano nodded first, then shook his head slightly with emotion, "It's a pity that the father of the sea train can't see this scene."

The designer of the sea train is Franky's master, Mr. Tom, who is known as the world's number one shipbuilder.

This shipbuilding master who made the Water City and several surrounding cities prosperous has obviously offset the sin of building ships for Pirate King Roger with the merit of building the sea train.

However, because he was in possession of the Pluto design, he was framed by the government agent chief Spandam, who accused him of attacking the Judicial Ship, and was eventually taken to Judicial Island to be executed.

It was really a pity.

"Let's go, it's time to get off."

Shano said.

After figuring out the reason why the island has become prosperous again, there is nothing to stay in this tower.

Everyone followed him down the stairs and prepared to separate and explore the interesting places on the island.

Robin wanted to go to the food museum on the island, Zeff wanted to buy ingredients, Smoker's cigar was finished and he had to go to refill it, and Nami and Nojiko just wanted to go to the food street to have a big meal...

In short, everyone had their own things to do.

But just as they were about to separate, a hearty laugh suddenly came from the opposite street.

"Hey, what are you doing? It's really hard to find you, Shano, you are here!"

The one who spoke was a red-haired man wearing a captain's hat, nearly three meters tall, wearing a scarlet cloak, and two serrated scimitars on his waist.

He put his hands in his pockets, laughed loudly, and strode with an arrogant pace similar to that of a certain flamingo...

Behind him was a mighty force, with a full hundred people, all of whom were fierce and looked like they were not easy to mess with.

"Stop."

Kuina took a step forward, pulled out the Wado Ichimonji, and stopped the group of people with a swish, and said expressionlessly: "What are you doing here?"

"Oh my, don't be so scary, sister Kuina, we are one family!"

The red-haired man smiled even more brightly. He raised his arms exaggeratedly to show that he had no hostility, and said with a grin:

"Everyone, let me introduce myself first, I'm "Bloodsaw" Jax! The bounty is 112 million Baileys, and I have a large fleet of more than a thousand people under my command. Among the new captains who set foot on the Grand Line this year, I am the most dazzling supernova!"

"Of course, this is definitely not comparable to you, Boss Shano."

The red-haired man looked at Shano again, "You have a bounty of 1 billion before entering the New World, but you are my dream idol. I heard about you from my children. When you arrived on this island, I didn't even think about it, and I rushed over immediately!"

"Hearing your tone…"

Smoker raised his eyebrows while holding a cigar in his mouth, "Do you want to join my boss?"

"That's right, Lord Smoker!"

Jax grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, "I came here this time with all my sincerity, to join him!"

"Guys!"

He waved his hand violently, and the younger brothers behind him immediately carried out a dozen large boxes, slammed them on the ground with a clang, and opened the lids.

——Inside were mountains of gold and silver treasures, glittering in the sunlight.

"…"

Guessing that it was this, Nami yawned boredly, and quietly tugged at Nojiko, wanting to take her to the restaurant, but the latter made a hushing gesture. She wanted to stay here and watch the show for a while longer!

"This is all the belongings I have looted after entering the Grand Line from the West Sea! "

Jax didn't notice this scene. He patted his chest and said heroically:

"As long as you, Boss Shano, nod and allow me to join, from today on, my life, Jax, will be yours! My fleet, my cadres, and all the treasures I have robbed will all be at your disposal!"

Isn't this sincerity enough!

As a fellow pirate, he doesn't believe that Shano won't be tempted!

As for why it costs so much to seek to join...

it's very simple.

Even a supernova needs a backer!

He is preparing to go to the Sabaody Archipelago, and after the coating is completed, he will go directly to the New World.

In such a dangerous place, he can't survive alone. He

is lucky today and has the chance to meet the person in front of him. He must seize the opportunity!

Looking at the first half of the entire Grand Line, this is the thickest thigh, no doubt about it.

Following the other party, he will soon be able to become a focal figure that shakes the New World like Kuina and Smoker.

Even if the other party is defeated and conquered by the Four Emperors after entering the New World, I am afraid he will be immediately promoted to the second or third level of the existence.

And he, as an old man on the ship, his status will also rise with the tide!

"Why is this guy so happy? "Looking at the red-haired man drooling, Nami quietly asked Nokigao beside her.

"What are you fantasizing about again."

Nokigao shrugged, turned to look at Shano, "Brother, what do you say."

"Since his attitude is good, let him go away." Shano shook his head slightly, too lazy to pay attention, "Let's go, let's do what we should do."

"Yeah."

Noqi nodded, not surprised at all.

She was about to step forward and wave her hand to drive this guy away.

But Ah Yin behind her finally couldn't hold it anymore, and after sniffing, she followed the smell to the front of the red-haired man, staring at the cloth bag hanging around his waist, and a low growl came from her throat.

Huh?

What's wrong with this dog?

Jax was stunned by Ah Yin's behavior, and subconsciously took a half step back, but soon forced a smile and looked at Shano ingratiatingly:

"Boss Shano, this pet you raise is quite fierce..."

Before the voice fell, Ah Yin suddenly jumped up, bit the bulging cloth bag, and tore it off violently.

Swish-

the cloth bag broke, and several girls' heads with smooth and neat cuts and no bloodstains rolled to the ground, their eyes looking at the sky blankly.

"!!!"

The local residents who had gathered around to watch the excitement were suddenly in an uproar.

"Wait, that's Ellie! "

And Annie and Eve..."

"They are all girls working in the tavern at the foot of the mountain! How could it be..."

Shano was about to turn around and leave, but when he saw this scene, he stopped and his eyes turned cold instantly.

"Hey, bad dog, what are you doing!"

Jax was in a hurry, bending down, picking up one by one, and reproaching, "These are all fresh treasures I just collected and prepared to enjoy, not for eating. If you are hungry, don't worry, wait for me to join, and feed you a pile of barbecue every day..."

"Guina."

Shano said expressionlessly.

"Yes, sir."

The calm voice of the young swordsman sounded.

As soon as the voice fell.

Swish!

A bright white sword light flashed, and Jax's muttering stopped abruptly.

He lowered his head in a daze, looking at the blood line that suddenly appeared on his neck, and Kuina who had sheathed her sword without knowing when.

"So fast..."

This was Jax's last thought.

Plop!

The pirate with a bounty of more than 100 million berries fell straight into a pool of blood, and the splashing blood dyed the treasure chest behind him red.

Kuina's figure emerged, without even looking at the corpse on the ground, sheathed the Wado Ichimonji indifferently, and stood quietly behind Shano again.

"Boss!!!"

"How could this happen!"

"We are obviously our own people who came to surrender, Lord Shano!"

The younger brothers screamed in fear and were in chaos in an instant. There were also loyal old subordinates who, with tears in their eyes, drew their swords and wanted to avenge Jax.

It was really noisy.

Shano frowned, his mind moved slightly, and he leaked a little of his domineering aura.

Buzz!

The invisible pressure swept over, and the hundreds of pirates fell to the ground with their eyes rolled up like a harvested wheat field.

The street suddenly became quiet.

"Do me a favor, take these girls'... to their families."

Shano looked at the heads of the girls on the ground, sighed, and said to the local residents around him.

"Okay, okay!"

Several brave residents hurried forward and carefully wrapped the heads with cloth, their eyes full of grief and anger.

"As for these pirates..."

Shano glanced at Jax's unconscious men on the ground.

"I'll leave it to you to deal with. Will the navy's warships follow the sea train to this island regularly? It's okay to hand them over to them when the time comes."

"Thank you, Lord Shano!"

The residents were grateful.

This Jax, relying on his own strength, was not afraid of the patrol warships that might arrive here at any time. He led his subordinates to be rampant on the island for two days, and no one dared to provoke him.

Now, he finally got the punishment he deserved!

What is this?

Will evil be punished by evil?

There were also a few half-grown children whispering, "What? So there are good people among pirates."

"I can hear it, little devils."

Shano glanced over.

"Wow!"

Several teenagers were immediately scared and burst into tears, hugging each other.

"Don't be afraid, let me make it clear to you, I have never been a pirate, and I will never be a pirate."

Shano said lightly, "Speaking of which, there are still many pirates staying on this island. You can also help me spread the word. When I am on this island, be honest. If you dare to attack civilians again, you will end up like Jax."

"Also, don't think about coming to surrender to those guys. I have no interest in conquering weaklings that even my crew can't beat."

After leaving this sentence, he took his companions and left the street.

Looking at their departing backs, some people subconsciously turned their eyes to the dozen or so open treasure chests.

So many treasures, if converted into cash, would be worth at least several billion Baileys, right?

A few people were ready to make a move, but they were immediately slapped on the head by the respected elders, who scolded them harshly:

"Stupid, dare to have such thoughts, do you want to die!"

"That Lord Shano seems to be easy to talk to, but if you touch his spoils and anger him, our town can't bear his anger!"

That's right!

Thinking about Jax's fate just now, the greedy people suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and finally woke up in the contemptuous eyes of the surrounding residents.

"What should we do?"

"Isn't Lord Shano's ship docked at the southern pier? Everyone, help Lord Shano put these boxes on the deck."

"Understood!"

Soon, the residents on the street spontaneously organized themselves, carefully lifted the treasure chests, and lined up to walk to the southern pier.

"Dad?!"

The burly young man lying on the bed suddenly sat up, and the heavy wooden bed groaned under his weight.

He rubbed his eyes and looked at the familiar figure standing against the light at the door. His face first showed disbelief, then ecstasy.

"Is it really you, Dad?"

Jack almost jumped off the bed. His huge body, eight meters tall, made the floor tremble violently.

With an anxious expression, he rushed to Pike in two big steps, wanting to hug him like when he was a child—but at the last moment, he suddenly came to his senses and hurriedly stopped.

—Now he was much stronger and heavier than before. If he really bumped into Pike, he might end up losing his dad again after finally reuniting.

He squatted down, smiled foolishly, and waited for Pike to come closer, then opened his arms and hugged him.

"You've grown so big, little brat!"

Pike laughed and reached out to pat Jack's strong arm, but suddenly noticed that

the young man had thick bandages wrapped around his exposed muscular arms. Looking closely at his face, he saw bruises and swelling — it was obvious he had suffered greatly not long ago.

"Who did you fight with this time, the gangsters on the east side of the pier?"

Pike touched the bruises with heartache and said angrily, "These guys… it's been so many years, and now they're active again? Haven't they forgotten the grudges of the past and come to bully you?"

"Simply unforgivable!"

He became angrier and angrier thinking about it, and picked up a shovel from behind the door.

"Wait, Jack, Daddy will go and avenge you!"

"It's not them, Dad."

Jack hurriedly stopped him.

"Well, actually, I'm a Devil Fruit user now, plus the power of an adult fishman. Let alone those guys back then—even if all the people on this island combined, they're no match for me…"

"Huh?"

Pike was surprised. "Devil Fruit? Isn't that kind of thing very valuable? Where did you get it from...?"

"This is a long story, Dad. Take a rest, have some water, and I'll tell you slowly."

Jack helped Pike sit down at the wooden table, poured a cup of hot tea, and handed it to him.

"Where should I start? Anyway, it was about two months ago. When I was moving things at the dock, I saw a strange fruit floating from a distance. I was hungry at the time, so I washed it and ate it…"

"It tasted so bad I almost vomited right after the first bite."

Jack scratched his head and smiled honestly.

"But it still worked. I felt uncomfortable all over when I took a shower that day, so I went out to the beach to get some fresh air. While walking, I tripped over a stone and fell. I tried to support myself with my hands to avoid hurting my forehead, but I inexplicably turned into a very large mammoth…"

"Is this an animal-type ability?"

Pike was stunned.

"Yeah, I only found out later."

Jack nodded. "Anyway, later a Shichibukai named Hanafuda came to our island for supplies. He happened to see me transforming. He seemed very interested in my mammoth form, so he forced me to board his ship and become his subordinate."

"Shichibukai? They're pirates, right? Why did you become a pirate?"

Pike was a little unhappy.

"I was forced to do it, Dad. That Hanafuda guy has a bunch of useless and stingy people under him, but he was nice to me, so I followed him for a while."

Jack said happily.

"Then why are you back now?" Pike frowned. "Who inflicted those wounds on you?"

"Wounds on my body?"

Jack looked down. "I was bitten by a fish. I fell into the sea and drifted for a long time. I almost couldn't get up. I thought I was dead, but a sea king chased and bit me. It didn't kill me, but pushed me into shallow water. When I woke up, I had drifted near this island."

Pike was stunned. "You little bastard… you are so lucky!"

"That's right!"

Jack laughed. "But Dad, I'm completely free now. That day, I followed Hanafuda and fought a guy named Shano."

"That guy is really strong. I heard he killed Hanafuda in a few moves, and the pirate group was destroyed. I was too lazy to go out to sea again, so I just waited for you here, thinking maybe one day you'd come back. I didn't expect you'd really come back in just a few days…"

"Haha, I also managed to return to this island alive with great difficulty. Let me tell you from the beginning… Wait!"

Pike suddenly realized and stopped laughing. He stood up suddenly, widening his eyes.

"Who did you say you fought with?"

…

In the city of food, in the town.

Everyone had separated, either alone or in groups of two or three, leisurely strolling around the town.

Shano took Yin to the dessert market in the north first.

He received a flyer distributed on the street and heard that there were all kinds of strawberry products for sale here. He wanted to let a certain guy who had to ration his strawberry milk on the ship have a feast.

"Hey, Yin, don't run around."

Shano patted Silver Wolf's head. Since entering the dessert market area, Yin had been very excited. His nose kept sniffing the sweet fragrance in the air, and his tail wagged like a propeller.

"Awoo!"

Ah Yin growled in protest but was soon attracted by the window of a roadside dessert shop. His whole wolf face pressed against the glass, saliva dripping.

Shano looked.

"Signature strawberry chiffon cake, strawberry shake ice, strawberry fruit milk tea…"

Awoo!

Ah Yin looked at Shano eagerly, eyes full of desire.

"Tsk, you guy…"

Shano smiled helplessly, pushed the door open, and walked into the store.

Let's go with this one.

Dingling—

The crisp sound of wind chimes rang, and the warm yellow lights filled the store. The air was rich with the aroma of cream and strawberries.

"Welcome!"

Behind the counter, a young girl clerk wearing a baseball cap greeted with a smile.

"What would you like to order? Our signature strawberry cake is the most popular in Puke Island!"

"Then give me the largest size of the signature strawberry cake, and one of each of the drinks and snacks with strawberries."

After placing the order, Shano casually found a seat by the window and sat down.

Ah Yin squatted obediently at his feet, staring at the counter with eager eyes, his tail tapping the floor.

After a while, the clerk came over with a large plate of various exquisite snacks.

"Please enjoy!"

The young clerk put down the cake and looked at Ah Yin curiously.

What a handsome big dog!

Such a big dog wasn't common. She couldn't help reaching out to touch him, smiling:

"Customer, do you want to give him one too?"

"No, these are all for him. I'll take a bite to taste it."

Shano smiled, picked up a fork, scooped a small piece of cake, and put it into his mouth.

The soft cake base melted in his mouth, the sweet fragrance of the cream and the sweet and sour strawberry blended perfectly. There were also chocolate biscuits embellishing it. Everything was just right.

It was delicious and didn't make people feel sick, but made the taste richer.

However, his interest in sweets was always limited. After one bite, he put the fork down.

"Don't hold back, let's eat."

Shano looked at Yin, who was drooling and about to lose control, and smiled.

If Nami or other crew members had brought Yin here, the plate would have been licked clean.

Only in front of his master could Yin honestly respect the hierarchy and watch him slowly taste the cake.

Awooo!

Yin finally got permission and couldn't wait to bury his whole wolf face in the cream, sweeping it with his teeth, eating all over his face.

This way of eating...

was only slightly better than his own.

Shano shook his head, crossed his legs, ordered another cup of coffee, and was sipping leisurely when he suddenly heard noise outside the store.

He glanced and saw a few figures running hurriedly.

"Hey, have you heard? Lord Shano said anyone who can defeat any crew member on his ship in a duel can join his army!"

"Is it true?"

"Can it be that easy to join the ship of such a big shot?"

"Of course it's true! Although I heard it from others, it's absolutely true! Lord Shano said he has no interest in conquering weaklings who can't even beat his own crew members. Isn't that what he means?"

"Indeed, seems true…"

The figures gradually went away, and the voices dissipated in the wind.

Shano paused, hand holding the coffee cup.

"..."

The corners of his mouth twitched.

How did the rumor become like this?

When did he say such a thing?

Those stinky brats spread the message too far, right?

The first and most important point of what he told the half-grown boys to spread was to deter pirates from bullying the island's people.

That seemed effective — on the way, he hadn't seen pirates disobey or dare to cause trouble.

But the second point: "He has no plan to accept pirates as new crew members,"

In the transmission, that part had been completely distorted.

What a headache.

Shano rubbed his eyebrows.

Those pirates who want to board must not dare challenge him.

But the rest of his crew wandering the island might be targeted.

"Ouch?"

Ah Yin raised his head, face full of cream, looked at Shano confusedly, as if noticing his mood change.

"It's okay, keep eating."

Shano rubbed his head.

Forget it, not a big deal.

He didn't believe there were pirates on this island strong enough to defeat his crew.

After being beaten for a day, they'd be honest by evening.

But now...

Some partners must be in trouble, right?

...

In the south of the city, in the vegetable market.

Zhepu, wearing a chef's uniform, was squatting in front of a stall, selecting fresh ingredients carefully, when he suddenly felt a chill on his back.

Without turning, he said calmly, "Little devil, if you want to sneak attack me, better go back and practice more years."

"Don't underestimate me, old man!"

A young pirate holding a long stick rushed from behind, shouting:

"You're the chef on the ship, right? Lucky me to meet a non-combatant like you. If I defeat you, I can get on Lord Shano's ship!"

Where did this rumor come from?

Zhepu frowned.

Was he chosen so quickly as a breakthrough point?

"I was underestimated."

Feeling a gust behind his head, Zhepu sighed and kicked out with lightning speed.

Bang!

The young pirate flew backwards faster than when he came, eyes rolled up, fainted.

Zhepu looked around and soon saw seven or eight suspicious figures in the crowd who wanted to challenge him.

But after seeing the instant kill, they hesitated.

"Young people these days…"

Zhepu shook his head and continued picking ingredients.

"Please pack these for me, boss, I want this cabbage, carrots, onions…"

...

Near the dock, by the tobacco shop.

"This batch of goods is good quality."

Smoker walked in an alley, counting cigar boxes and puffing smoke.

Suddenly, three pirates wearing captain's hats blocked his way.

"Defected hunter Smoker! We finally found you! We want to challenge you!"

"Tsk, because of that rumor…"

Smoker looked up, glanced at the ignorant pirates, slowly exhaled smoke, and squinted:

"Hey, what makes you confident to choose me as your opponent?"

"Of course it's because you're weak!"

The leading pirate laughed.

"A bounty of 160 million berries looks terrifying! Ordinary pirates would be scared to death and dare not look for you, but we're different. We checked your background! Before joining Lord Shano, you were just a small sailor, a branch colonel in a place like the East China Sea!"

"Branch colonel? From the East China Sea!"

Another pirate captain grinned, "Your bounty's so high because you have Lord Shano's influence and Ender cadre status!"

"I'm a big pirate with a bounty of 70 million berries. I've killed at least ten pirates your size in the North Sea! You won't be different!"

"Take him down, Smoker, don't hesitate!"

"That's right!"

"This glory Lord Shano gave you that doesn't belong to you will be ours from now on!"

"Tsk, what a hassle…"

Smoker sighed, raised his right hand, and suddenly thick white smoke gushed out, turning into a huge fist that smashed hard at the three pirates!

"White Fist·Heavy Hit!"

...

Town Square.

Kuina rested with eyes closed by the fountain.

From conversations of groups passing by, she already knew the rumors fermenting rapidly on the island.

Ridiculous.

She shook her head.

How could Lord Shano look down on this group of rabble?

It's just...

Something's very strange.

She deliberately chose such a conspicuous place to sit.

Several groups of pirates passed by but none dared to challenge her.

They even deliberately avoided her, not daring to meet her eyes.

A mere 200 million bounty scared them all.

Kuina opened her eyes, sighed deeply in boredom.

No courage at all.

Or that stupid green algae head is fun — no matter how many times defeated, he still fights full out next time.

Anyway, no one seems to be waiting today.

She stood, left the fountain, and walked towards the bookstore.

She wondered what happened to the rest of her companions.

With bounties over 100 million each, they should scare off cowards just as easily, right?

Wait.

Kuina suddenly stopped, looked up in a certain direction, her face turning strange.

How could she forget?

There really is an exception on the ship...

...

In the middle of the food court, on a small stool.

Nami held a large box of takoyaki and happily ate.

Suddenly, she noticed the surroundings became unusually quiet.

Eh?

She raised her head in confusion and looked around.

At both ends of the street, exits were blocked by a dark crowd.

Looking closer.

At least three or four hundred people crowded on the street at this moment, staring at her covetously, approaching step by step, with malicious grins.

As if she was tempting fat sheep in their eyes.

What is this for?

Nami tilted her head, confused.
