Vice Captain of One Piece

Chapter 220 City of Water: A Strange Feeling
The Battle of Judiciary Island, four days later, the capital of water, morning.

"Those guys in the navy seem to have pushed all the crimes on us, and they didn't write a single word about the demon-slaying order that set Judiciary Island ablaze." Sauron flipped through the latest newspaper, and immediately felt a little happy Said: "It seems that the reward amount will definitely increase this time~~"

Lu Fei said with a smile: "Indeed, this time it will definitely rise a lot~~",
"Really? Me too???", jumping off the chair suddenly, Chopper spun around excitedly, "Hahaha, that's great~~"

"Hehe, I will definitely get a super high bounty for my great performance this time~~ and people in the world will definitely call me "" Sanji on the side also propped his chin and smiled proudly, thinking constantly in his mind How handsome and handsome is the photo of his reward order, and all the beauties all over the world will be crazy about it.

"You idiots! What's so happy about being hunted down by the whole world???" Nami glared angrily at those happy guys, "Really, is it so happy to be offered a reward? I don't want to be Navy or pirate hunters all over the world are chasing after me!"

Unlike Nami, Robin also said with some expectation: "Hehehe, the amount of the reward is also a manifestation of strength~,"

"Robin, why do you even say that..." Nami said dejectedly, not understanding why everyone except her looked excited and excited, hoping that the Navy would add a string of zeros to their bounties.Although she would be more than happy to add a bunch of zeros to the pirates' wallets...

"Forget it. Now let's divide the pocket money first. We still have [-] million Be... Li..." Nami opened the safe that had been filled with money before, and saw that there was only a small pile of money left in the safe that was full of money. I was a little overwhelmed when I was there.Nami stretched her hand in and groped vigorously for a while to make sure that she was right. Nami's expression became distorted, but she still didn't want to believe the facts in front of her. She even buried her head in the box, wishing to use a microscope to find the missing money.

"Ding Ding Dongdong" attracted everyone's attention. When they looked over, they found that Nami, whose head was stuck in the safe, was twisting her body hard to get her head out.

"What is she doing? A new type of dance??" Luffy, who couldn't understand, asked suspiciously.Others are also at a loss.

Nami, who finally pulled her head out, looked at the small stack of banknotes in her hand with a puzzled expression, her short orange hair curled up a few strands due to the action just now.After watching for a few seconds, Nami suddenly turned to the others with a smile, her smiling face was extremely cute, and her tone was also frighteningly gentle, "Where's the [-] million Berries placed here~~~"

"Ah, that." A certain culprit wearing a straw hat didn't realize the danger at all, and went straight up against the wind, "Didn't there be a banquet yesterday? I'll give it to them."

"Give it to them..." Upon hearing this understatement, two blushes slowly appeared on Nami's face, but then she turned into a dominatrix and shouted angrily, "That's our money!!!" .After yelling, he switched the channel immediately and continued smiling with gentleness on his face.

"I can't help it, because the banquet needs wine and food~~, and everyone has come in the end, of course more food is needed, hahahaha..."

"...", Nami's smiling face was already twitching, and the hand holding the small pile of money was shaking desperately, and the red wells were piled up on her head one by one.

Finally, the volcano erupted after all.

As a result, in the residence of the Straw Hat Pirates, there was more than an hour of horrific, horrific howls of ghosts and wolves, and then a Straw Hat captain who was beaten into a pig's head and changed beyond recognition was born.

After venting her anger, Nami squatted pitifully on the side and cried to the pile of money: "Whoa, I wanted to add some luxurious furniture to the new ship..."

"Hehe, let's go find some cheap ones." Robin comforted with a smile.

At this time, a guy with no long memory said carelessly with his ravaged face: "By the way, Nami, I want to go out to play. Give me pocket money~~"

"Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!! !!!!"

........................

After receiving the pocket money noisily, everyone dispersed.Luffy clung to Chopper to go out together, Nami and Robin went shopping together to find some cheap furniture, Zoro went to the sword shop to see if there was a way to repair the autumn water that was almost left with the handle, and Sanji Then go and see if there are any fresh vegetables.

"Chopper, you are so kind. Nami really didn't give me a penny. Fortunately, you bought me water, water, and candy..." while licking the soft candy that looked like water droplets, and holding a big Luffy, who still has a big head and a big bag, said inarticulately.

"Nami gave me [-] Baileys, but I'm going to buy books for the rest, so I can only buy you a candy..." Chopper who followed him said with a smile, licking the candy he was carrying from time to time.

"Oh, isn't this the straw hat boy?? Thank you for yesterday's banquet!", an uncle who saw Luffy and recognized who he was shouted happily, and the people who heard the voice immediately surrounded him Looking at the hero who saved the whole city with adoration (Luffy saved the iceberg = saved the whole city of water)
Luffy threw the water sugar in his hand into his mouth, and then killed the big bag on his head in seconds. He continued to laugh and laugh with other people, and completely forgot the lesson of Nami's beating him up this morning. , "Hahaha, how are you~~"

"Straw hat boy, come to my house tonight~" An uncle enthusiastically grabbed one of Luffy's hands, but not long after, another uncle grabbed Luffy's other hand, " No, this time it should be at my house!"

"No, my house!!"

"Come to me!!"

……

"Hahaha, you don't need to argue..." Luffy, who was standing there, laughed and watched his hands being stretched by the two uncles.Suddenly, a ten-year-old girl with short brown hair crept in from the crowd, holding a photo frame and a piggy bank in her right hand, and crawled in from the adults' feet with her left hand on the ground.Then stood up and held the photo frame in front of Luffy and shouted: "Please do me a favor! Straw Hat Boy!!"

"???" Strangely retracting the hands held by the uncles, Luffy looked at the photo frame raised in front of him in doubt, wondering why the person in front of him wanted to show him a family photo.

After taking the photo back and handing over the swordfish-shaped piggy bank, the girl said loudly and firmly: "Please help me find my swordfish bluefin! I will pay you!!"

Seeing that girl, Luffy was stunned.The girl was just about his waist high, with brown eyes full of determination.And Luffy, who was staring straight at her, always had a strange feeling, suddenly he made an unimaginable movement: stretched out his hands to grab the girl's shoulders and pulled them towards him, pressed the girl's head with his right hand and turned it twice There was a height difference between them, and then he bent down and hugged her horizontally, weighed her and hugged her tightly, but he still had a puzzled look on his face, as if he didn't even know what he was doing.

"...", the surrounding crowd quietly watched Luffy's strange movements, with stupefied faces.The little girl who didn't expect that she would be treated like this by a strange boy let Luffy hug her in a daze, and after a few seconds of reaction, she screamed and smashed all the things in her hand on Luffy's head, trying to break free In a panic, they squeezed out the crowd surrounding them and fled, regardless of what they wanted from Luffy.Chopper on one side also didn't understand what his captain was doing, and unconsciously caught the piggy bank and photo frame that fell down.

Luffy was hit by her without dodging, and then watched her run away with a dazed expression full of confusion, "Why, it always feels a little strange..."

The child who squeezed out of the crowd disappeared immediately.In Lu Fei's eyes, the figure who left without hesitation seemed to be blurred for a moment and turned into someone else, but he couldn't even see who he turned into.But that familiar feeling is so strong, so strong that the soul feels a little strange and unnatural.

Under the astonished eyes of the people around him, Luffy suddenly shouted "Wait a minute!!" Then he pulled away from the crowd and rushed towards the direction where the little girl left, his footsteps flustered as if chasing the important person who was about to lose.

"Luffy?" Chopper, who was suddenly thrown down, was holding two things, looked at the direction where Luffy was leaving, and blinked blankly. Feeling uneasy, it immediately followed, anxiously following the boy in the straw hat Shouted: "Luffy! What's wrong with you??"

"..., what happened to them??" The surrounding crowd watched them leave one by one, a little confused, and then dispersed in twos and threes.

…………

On a street with few people, Luffy sat quietly on the handrail of a small bridge, looking down at the clear river flowing under the bridge.He couldn't find the little girl, or he didn't really plan to find her. After all, he knew very well from the contact just now that that girl was not the one who could make him feel very warm: she was different in height and weight. Not the same, the sense of touch of the body is also different... The most different thing is that she can't hit herself....Even if I forget everything, my body still remembers it. When I wake up, I already feel unnatural, making myself sad and unnatural...

Sighing, he put his straw hat back on his head and continued to stare at the river below in a daze.He didn't know who he was looking for, his memory was so complete that he didn't lack anything, and he also had a lot of partners, but he just felt a subtle discomfort.

It didn't take long for Chopper to find Luffy following the smell, standing behind him holding the photo frame and piggy bank, not knowing how to speak.It rarely sees Luffy, who is cheerful enough to be a bit nervous, be so depressed. Although he doesn't know why Luffy suddenly did this to that child so abnormally just now, it knows that there must be a reason for Luffy's character, and That's why he's so weird now.

At this time, Zoro, who was walking (lost) here, saw a man and a deer staying on the bridge like a sculpture, and walked over slowly to say hello: "Luffy, Chopper, what are you doing here?"

"Zoro..." Chopper watched him walk to the bridge, and after thinking about it, he said, "Luffy seems to have something on his mind..."

"Huh??? Luffy??" Sauron was a little startled by the news. After all, he was very clear about his own captain's character. At least the profound vocabulary of 'mind' had nothing to do with him at all. That face had nothing to do with him. Can't keep a secret.But when he found out that Luffy hadn't noticed that he came here or even turned his head around, he couldn't help but believe what Chopper said.

Turning over and sitting on the bridge next to Luffy, Zoro glanced at him and then looked at the river flowing in front of him, and asked lightly, "What's the matter? It's rare to see you have such a strange expression."

Hearing the sound, Lu flew to Sauron's direction and took a look, then continued to stare at the gurgling river in a daze, and after a while, he slowly said: "It's nothing, it just feels a little unnatural..."

"Unnatural? Where is it unnatural?"

"I just don't know..." Scratching his face irritably, Lu Fei frowned slightly and said, "Did something happen while I was sleeping?"

"It's not strange when you sleep, although I don't understand how you can eat and sleep at the same time..." After thinking about it hard, I still didn't feel that there was anything unnatural, Zoro patted Luffy on the shoulder Then I jumped back to the bridge, "Don't think so much, maybe you just slept too much, it will be fine in a few days. I still need to find a place to repair my knife..."

"Well, that's right..." Nodding his head, Luffy, who failed to think about it, could only regard this as the aftereffect of sleeping too much.After looking at the river in front of him again, he jumped back to the bridge, and then he saw the two things that Chopper was holding, "Chopper, what are you holding?"

"The thing that the girl who was scared away by you just now is holding is very important, so I took it..." After answering obediently, Chopper looked worriedly at Luffy who was still a little absent-minded, " Well, Luffy, if you feel uncomfortable, do you want me to check it? It should be that the fierce battle has affected your body to a certain extent..."

"No, there's no need. Let's put this matter aside first..." He moved his feet and looked towards a certain corner. Not surprisingly, he saw the child hiding there and peeking back, and then said lightly: "The girl just now should I have something to do with us, let's see what problems she has and then we can talk about it..."

"Then, I'll go find the sword shop first..." After waving his hands, Sauron walked forward slowly, and continued to look for the sword shop that he hadn't found for a long time.

"Zoro will definitely get lost..." With this thought in mind, Chopper followed Luffy to the corner after watching Sauron turn a corner.

It didn't take long for the two to figure out why the little girl had come to them.The little girl's name is Harpy, and she wants Luffy to help find her swordfish that disappeared in [Akula Laguna], but she just came to Luffy with a photo frame and a piggy bank. Whatever he said, he was scared away by Luffy.

"I want you to find Bluefin, and I will pay you!" said Happy firmly, and then pointed to the piggy bank and photo frame that Chopper still held in his hand, "The one in that photo is Bluefin, it is a swordfish that has been raised in my family for more than 100 years, and the fins on its head are blue. I like it the most!"

"I see..." After taking a look at the photo, Luffy nodded.

"You pirates shouldn't be picky about treasures, right? If you can help me find the blue fin, I'll give you all my property!", Habib pointed to the swordfish piggy bank, and said firmly Looking at Luffy, waiting for his answer.

"Although I don't know what's going on, but what you said is right." Luffy stretched out his right hand towards Happy, and said with a smile, "Then give me all your property!"

"That must be done~" He stretched out his right hand to hold it, Habi looked relieved, then immediately let go of his right hand and took a few steps back and said vigilantly: "You're not as weird as you were just now." Right???"

"Hahaha, I really scared you, I'm sorry..." After laughing loudly, Luffy began to introduce himself, "I'm Luffy, and this one next to you is Chopper."

After returning the two things he was holding to Happy, Chopper smiled and said in a low voice, "Hello..."

"Ah!! Civet Cat Candy is talking!!!!", Hobby, who was frightened by it and turned pale, screamed.

"Who do you call Tanuki Tang???" Chopper yelled loudly.
