Chapter 37 Xiluobu Village
The Grand Line, an island in the New World.
The red-haired one of the Four Emperors was sitting on a rock, holding a brand new reward order.
He looked at the endless blue sea, his eyes flashed, and there was a faint smile on his lips.
"Is it finally here, Luffy!?"
Round after round of waves hit the tough rocks, writing traces of natural time.
……
New World, aboard Moby-Dick.
A man with freckles on his face and an orange cowboy hat ran excitedly on the deck and arrived at the gathering place of the white-bearded cadres.
"Hey, hey! Did you see it? Did you see it?!"
wow-
The man opened the reward order in his hand, and then laughed at everyone present:
"Look! Look!"
"This guy is my brother, and he is actually being rewarded by the World Government!"
"Your brother?"
A man with a pineapple head looked at the contents of the reward order and suddenly clicked his tongue and exclaimed:
"The first time I was offered a reward, there was actually 5000W Bailey. Ace, it seems that your brother is a more ruthless character than you~!"
A burly man next to him also answered:
"How about you introduce him to the Whitebeard Pirates! Then we can be a family in the future."
"Hahaha, forget it, Jozi." Ace laughed and said, "It's impossible for that guy Luffy to join someone else's pirate group."
"He has been clamoring to become the Pirate King!"
"Oh? Isn't that the same as you before?" Marco glanced at Ace teasingly.
After all, not long ago, Ace was clamoring to become the Pirate King, and then came to challenge the Whitebeard Pirates in one go.
"Asshole! Didn't you agree not to mention that matter again?!"
Ace suddenly swooped down and instantly knocked the unsuspecting Marco to the ground.
Inadvertently, the reward order slipped out of his hand.
A gust of sea breeze blew by, and the reward order suddenly floated up, and accidentally fell into the hands of a tall man.
"Ace's brother!?"
Edward Newgate, the white-bearded Yonko known as the world's strongest, looked at the familiar straw hat on the reward order, and his eyes suddenly became blurred.
"Interesting...gu la la la la la!!!"
While he was receiving the infusion, he slowly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a crescent-like smile, hearty and domineering.
Its laughter penetrated the sky, and its terrifying momentum even shattered the clouds high in the sky.
Regardless of the various infusion tubes inserted into his body, Whitebeard stood up and laughed:
"Sons!"
"To celebrate the success of Ace's brother being rewarded, let's..."
“Let’s have a party!!!”
"oh--!!!"
In an instant, cheers erupted throughout the Moby Dick.
A grand banquet was held without any preparation.
As for who is Ace’s younger brother? ?
How many people in the entire Whitebeard Pirates care? ?
They just wanted a reason to have a party.
However, in an unnoticed corner, there was a man with a black beard, eating meat while staring at the [D] on Luffy's reward order.
"Looks like he's not a simple guy."
"Thief hahaha..."
……
East China Sea, Orange Town.
Inside the base camp of the Clown Pirates.
Bucky, who was in a meeting to discuss the next step, was suddenly stopped by an unprecedented shout.
"Captain Bucky!!! Captain Bucky!!!..."
I saw a funny-looking pirate running over in a panic, and then suddenly handed over the reward order in his hand, panting and saying:
"Captain Bucky, look!"
"Huh?! What?"
Bucky curiously took the reward order.
Immediately his eyes suddenly widened.
"This...this is!?"
"This is Lord Luffy's reward order!!!" The running pirate shouted excitedly: "Sir Luffy, he actually received a reward of 5000W Bailey!"
"As expected of Captain Bucky, he is truly extraordinary!"
The errand pirate never misses an opportunity to flatter Bucky.
Bucky also lowered his voice and focused his eyes firmly on the straw hat.
"Yeah..." He said in agreement with the errand pirate.
But in his heart, he was already muttering viciously:
"As expected of the person you value Shanks, he is indeed extraordinary!"
Bucky knew very well that although the person who drank the sworn wine with him was Luffy, the captain of the Straw Hats.
But he and Luffy can't be the same person!
The person he really wants to be loyal to and take orders from is actually Red, the vice-captain of the Straw Hats!
This does not mean that he is not loyal to the Straw Hats.
Now that he has drunk the sworn wine, according to the rules of the pirates, he will always follow the Straw Hats.
Bucky is a traditional pirate, so he will strictly abide by this rule.
Just in a large pirate group, there will inevitably be different factions or small groups.
And he is the group of people who follow Vice Captain Chi Hong!
……
……
Luffy's bounty order didn't cause much trouble in the Grand Line.
A 5000W bounty may have some weight, but in the great sea route where there are so many strong men, there are simply countless such guys.
However, compared to the dullness of the Grand Line, many people in the East China Sea at this time have been frightened out of their wits by this reward order.
……
……
Donghai, Xiluobu Village.
As a small village in a remote location with no population and no special products, it is lucky to be an island that even pirates don't bother to visit.
The village is quiet and peaceful. The villagers work at sunrise and rest at sundown, year after year, day after day.
Except for a lying long-nosed man who announces the arrival of pirates every morning, there is nothing special about the whole village.
Today, the long-nosed man still completed a long-distance run across the entire village, chased by the villagers.
in the afternoon.
In the forest outside Silob Village, Usopp, who had a healthy wheat complexion and wore a brown suspender suit, moved his nose vigorously and sniffed the fragrance of green grass in the air.
"What a beautiful weather~"
Having just woken up from a nap, he stretched and then shouted:
"Okay! The break is over! I'm going to tell Keya about my adventures in the underwater world soon!"
"Then... in the meantime, let's practice our shooting skills!"
Usopp moved his arms as if he was about to fight.
But at this moment, a loud shout suddenly came from the country road in the distance:
"It's bad——! Something bad is going to happen——!!!"
"Captain Usopp!!!"
I saw three little guys, only about 8 or 9 years old, running over with their teeth and claws bared and shouting.
"Huh!? It's you!"
Looking at his three subordinates, Usopp immediately pretended to be calm, crossed his arms across his chest, and looked down at the three of them.
"How unbecoming you are in a panic!"
"As a pirate, you have to be calm, okay?"
"Yes, Captain Usopp!"
The three brats who ran up to Usopp immediately answered.
But then an onion-headed kid in the middle handed a newspaper and a reward order into Usopp's hands.
"But...Captain Usopp...the situation is really not good!"
"What happened?"
Usopp calmly took the bounty order, opened it slowly, and then...
He suddenly became quiet.
A minute later, the three little ghosts let out a confused cry.
"Captain Usopp?"
Seeing that Usopp didn't respond, the three of them moved to Usopp's side.
Soon they saw...
Captain Usopp, who had always been so showy in front of them, was actually sweating profusely, with a look of fear in his pupils.
"Ugh……"
The three little ghosts looked at each other and spread their hands helplessly.
It seems that it is not surprising at all that Usopp would behave like this.
Carrot Head, who looked relatively calm, coughed lightly:
"Ahem, Captain Usopp, a big pirate has appeared in the East China Sea."
"The newspaper said that they attacked the 153rd Naval Branch in Donghai two days ago."
"I remember this naval branch, it seems to be not far from Xiluobu Village..."
