The sword of the pirate is like a dream

Chapter 69 Unexpected Encounter
Ten minutes later, Ai Ou returned with a full team.

This time, the owner of the store he went to find according to what Nami said before leaving was very talkative. Not only did he offer a discount, but he also called a team of guys to help move things. The appearance of a distinguished guest.

Of course, this is probably because Io did not counter-offer at all.Usually, when Nami bought something in person, she always had to haggle for a long time before deciding to buy it. He was really impatient with this kind of nonsense, so he simply bought it at the price the boss said.

Having said that, there are indeed too many navies nearby to an abnormal level. On the way back, I saw no less than five squadrons of sailors passing by. There must be more people who didn't notice through the crowd.

When I was shopping just now, Ai Ou asked the boss by the way, and the answer he got was that a big man from the navy came to Josh Island recently, and after that, there were more and more navies in the vicinity, and even the surrounding area on weekdays. There were fewer disputes, and all of them looked hurriedly thinking about finishing shopping and leaving. After all, the reputation of the Navy is really not that good.

As for who came to Josh Island and why the navy gathered here, he was told that he didn't know either—

——"Oh, we are small businessmen, how dare we inquire so carefully, if we are regarded as spies of the revolutionary army, we will be in trouble!"

When he said this, the boss of the Mediterranean was smiling, but then he secretly reminded Ai Ou to be more careful not to cause trouble. He clearly regarded Ai Ou as pirates or "revolutionary spies" in his mouth. He emphasized the name of his store several times, apparently hoping to attract repeat customers—it seems that the price really satisfied him?

But to be honest, Ai Ou didn't remember the rather awkward name he said at all, and now he only remembers the smooth and shiny head of the boss in retrospect.

With a few banknotes, I sent a few shop assistants who moved things into the cabin at the request of Io - they were ready to leave when they were placed on the deck at the beginning, but after Io mentioned it, they continued to move in Afterwards, Ai Ou learned that the practice is to only move to the deck, because the cabins of most ships are free for idlers, and these shop assistants obviously belong to the category of "idlemen".

Watching the backs of a few people clutching the pictures of Bailey happily going away, Ai Ou was about to lie down and stretch his waist—atmospheric control has been improved a lot, and the physical strength consumed by daily maintenance of various operations is also reduced. Rolling and turning up several times, coupled with the current release, he had to find a way to continue to master it, even he had to consider the issue of increasing revenue and reducing expenditure--a pleasant voice came from the deck next to it:

"Ai...!"

The sound stopped abruptly as soon as it started.

Ai Ou turned her head to look, and saw a pale green figure standing on the side of the ship next to her, her hands tightly covering her own mouth, her pale golden hair fluttering gently under the parasol.

It's Ke Ya, the eldest lady of Xiluobu Village.

She waved her hand from a distance, then turned around and stepped off the boat, walking towards this side quickly.The ship she was on was a big one, and it took a little time to get around.

The gangway of the Storm II was still up, so she walked up directly.

Ai Ou didn't expect her to move so fast, and when she turned around and walked to the pier, she felt that it was a bit strange to go down to meet her, so she went up to meet her: "Long time no see."

"Long time no see, Mr. Aiou." She panted slightly, pressed her chest and smiled like a flower, and lowered her voice deliberately when she said Aiou's name, "Why is Mr. Aiou here?"

"Accepted a commission." Ai Ou led her to sit down under the umbrella, "What about you?"

Ke Ya put down the book she had been holding all the time - Ai Ou noticed that on the cover were "Theory of External Diseases and Internal Diseases" in big square characters - "I am, so I came to visit Josh's house."

Ai Ou was stunned for a moment, not wanting to understand the logic in her words, but he said immediately: "Happy birthday." After a pause, he said, "Let me make up a birthday present for you!"

Ke Ya's breathing had already stabilized, and she pursed her lips in embarrassment at this moment and smiled. She realized that she spoke too hastily, "Thank you."

Then he explained: "The tradition of our family is to visit the big families in the East China Sea one by one after we grow up, and we are not allowed to go out before that."

So that's the reason why Mellie acted like that at that time?
Ai Ou nodded: "Sit down for a while, I'll make tea."

Just got up, and said, "Li Lixi is in her room, just go straight to the third room on the right after entering the door."

Ke Ya smiled and agreed, "I went to her house not long ago, and uncle doesn't seem to be angry with her."

When he came out with the tea set, the two girls were sitting there having a good conversation.

Lilith was still wearing a tiger mask, and Keya touched the mask curiously, "Is this what the 'Masked Swordsman' lady left behind?"

"Yes." Lilyxi raised her hands, trying to imitate the fierce tiger's pounce, but her imitation skills were not good enough, and she looked like a vicious little kitten.

"The material is good and the workmanship is excellent. It seems that the lady's identity is not simple." Ke Ya said.

"She must be a direct disciple of an ancient, hidden and powerful sect!"

Even through the mask, Ai Ou could feel Lily's eyes shining brightly. He poured a cup of hot tea for the two of them respectively, and got two small "thank you" with the same posture and tone. Double favor.

He didn't pay much attention, sat down and poured himself a glass, "The sword technique she uses seems to be 'Hundred Ghosts', do you know this genre?"

Ke Ya thought for a while, and smiled apologetically: "I haven't heard of it... If Mr. Ai Ou wants to know, I can ask."

Ai Ou waved his hand, "No need to inquire specifically, she doesn't seem to want to be known by others, let's talk about it in private, and rumors will be avoided."

Ke Ya followed the good example: "I see."

Lily Xi had been thinking hard, and finally sighed: "Oh, I don't know either."

Aio: "..."

"Speaking of which, Meli really scared me when she showed me Mr. Io's arrest warrant a while ago." Ke Ya patted her chest with a look of lingering fear, and then smiled and said:

"Mr. Ai Ou became the first bounty in the East China Sea, how do you feel?"

"I lost hundreds of millions..." Ai Ou chuckled.

Ke Ya thought for a while and immediately understood: "Bounty hunters are actually not that good, because, because..."

She wanted to comfort Ai Ou, but she didn't know much about it. The only thing she knew was Usopp's usual bragging. At this time, she couldn't find anything to say, so she racked her brains and could only say "Actually Being a pirate is also good."

Ai Ou was noncommittal, but opened another topic:
"Kaya, when did you come to Josh Island?"

Keya's ship had already parked here when the ship was docked before, but the berth of the Storm II was on the edge of the pier, and the ships were replaced quite frequently, so even the neighbors could not directly judge the relationship between the front and rear feet.
