One Piece: The Magician

After the banquet, in the dead of night, the Straw Hats all fell asleep with smiles on their faces under the warm reception of the townspeople.

A few people were secretly discussing something outside.

"They are really a bunch of guys who can both eat and drink, especially the orange-haired woman. She is simply a monster. I can't stand it even with bubble tea." The one who spoke was the black-faced one who drank to the end with Nami. A nun, she shook off her nun uniform, revealing her extremely strong muscles.

"But...8, do we need to welcome them like this? They are just a few little guys." The muscular woman asked an uncle with curly hair, and then bulged her muscles. "Wouldn't it be over if we just kill them on the shore?"

.9 and SS. Wednesday looked at each other and said with lingering fear: "No, the one wearing glasses is a capable person, he looks very strong."

Having said this, SS. Wednesday hurriedly confirmed to Ikarem: ".8, are all of them asleep?"

Ikarem nodded, and then took out two reward orders from his arms; "You have to remember, SS. On Monday, people should not be judged by their appearance. This time we caught two big fish."

Several people took a look at the reward order and immediately exploded.

"No way, one is 3000 million and the other is 7000 million, which adds up to a bounty of 9 million Baileys." [-] had a big mouth and held his head in his hands, looking in disbelief.

"Fortunately, I wasn't impulsive. I didn't expect this stupid-looking guy to be worth 3000 million," Ss. said with some fear on Monday.

ss. Wednesday covered his mouth, sweating profusely, holding Sherlock's reward order, "We actually came back alive from such a vicious pirate."

"Ahem, hemp~~ hemp~~" Ikarem first did a few vocal exercises, then grinned and said rather disdainfully: "What's the use of having a high bounty when you're just a bunch of fledgling newcomers."

As he spoke, Ikarem rushed to the bounty hunters who gathered behind him and ordered: "Go and tie them up. We want to catch them alive. If you kill them, the bounty will be reduced by [-]%."

"Hey, I'm sorry, they are exhausted from the morning's sailing. Just let them have a good rest." A deep male voice came from above several people.

Ikarem and the others looked up in panic, only to see the green-haired swordsman from the Straw Hat Pirates sitting on the roof, with a bright moon hanging high behind them, and the bright moonlight reflected the green-haired swordsman's figure. There was a hazy white edge in the circle. He held a long knife in his hand and looked at the bounty hunters downstairs with a wicked smile.

Eyes as sharp as swords

"Aren't you already drunk?" Ikarem swallowed his saliva and asked in surprise.

"As a swordsman, I must keep a clear mind at all times. How could I do something stupid like being drunk?"

Standing up and sheathing the sharp knife in his hand, Sauron turned his head and looked down. More and more townspeople came out of nearby houses, but they changed their hospitable attitude during the day and were replaced by a wave of Tao's eyes filled with murderous intent and a handful of sharp weapons.

"Sure enough, is this a bounty hunter's lair?"

"The fledgling pirates came to the Grand Line with dreams and high spirits, and you just come to take advantage of the novices. It's too bad." A playful smirk appeared on Zoro's face. "There are about 100 of you here." There are more than one person, so let me accompany you to have fun."

"Baroque Studio"

Hearing this, the bounty hunters below all looked shocked.

Oppressed by Sauron's sword-like aura, Ikarem was afraid to look directly at the people on the roof. He sweated profusely and asked, "How do you know?"

"Well, after all, I was with you before. At that time, people from your company came to me and wanted me to join you, but I refused."

Sauron was about to continue to reveal the secrets of Baroque Studio, but was interrupted by a voice from the void behind him.

"Do you need help?" Sherlock, who was invisible, said calmly to Sauron. ps: The wine Sherlock drank was taken into the mirror space before it entered his stomach.

"Sure enough, I knew you weren't drunk either." Zoro smiled slightly and whispered without even turning his head: "No, I still need them to try out my two new knives."

"Really?" Sherlock seemed to have expected Sauron's answer. He turned his head and glanced at the large number of bounty hunters downstairs, and then left quietly, just as he came quietly.

Feeling Sherlock's breath gradually disappearing, Sauron curled his lips, "What an elusive guy." He pulled out Xue Zhi from his waist, and raised a bloodthirsty smile like a Shura at the corner of his mouth, and then he jumped. Pounce on the crowd below

Explosions, gunshots, the sound of sharp blades clashing, and screams sounded one after another.

Witnessed by the full moon, Sauron's journey of killing a hundred people begins.

While Sauron was fighting with the bounty hunters at Baroque Studio, a beautiful orange-haired girl was also working on her plan to make a fortune.

"Really, these bounty hunters are too poor." Nami looked helplessly at the box of change on the table. She searched several rooms, but the harvest was less than [-] beli, which made the greedy Miss Navigator felt extremely depressed.

Just when Nami looked around and planned to try her luck in this room, she heard a loud "crash" sound and the door of the room was violently knocked open. Nami hurriedly turned around and found that two people were coming. The tall bounty hunter suddenly panicked.

"Isn't it true that all those bounty hunters were attracted by Sauron? Why did they appear here?" Nami quickly judged her situation and found that the only exit had been sealed by the two of them, so she was heartbroken. He took out a folding stick from his waist and made a fighting stance, intending to fight to the bitter end.

The two bounty hunters who were originally chasing Sauron didn't expect to meet the navigator on the pirate ship here. They were stunned for a moment, then they looked at each other, grinned and pulled out their weapons.

However, before the two of them could make the next move, their eyes suddenly widened and they lowered their heads in horror.

Nami took a closer look and saw two sharp daggers appearing out of thin air, piercing the hearts of the two of them fiercely. The palm-long blades were cut off from the roots, and then the daggers that completed the task gradually disappeared like phantoms. .Along with the hot blood gushing out, the bodies of the two bounty hunters fell to the ground, dead inexplicably.

Sherlock's figure slowly appeared next to the two corpses. He pushed up his glasses, first glanced at the two dead corpses on the ground, and then glanced at the box of change next to Nami. , frowned slightly, and finally turned his gaze to Nami, who was still in shock.

"Thanks, Sherlock." Nami breathed a long sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from her head, and said gratefully to Sherlock.But her face was still a little pale, maybe because Sherlock's weird killing method was too unbelievable.

"You're welcome, aren't we already companions?" Sherlock said as he began to rummage quickly in the house. His movements were so fast that Nami, an "old" thief, was a little ashamed. .

"This guy is indeed a good snitch. Not only his hands and feet are nimble, but the most important thing is that he can become invisible." Nami thought to herself, and then she said to Sherlock:

"Hey, hey, you're here to take advantage of the situation, right? Don't waste your efforts. These guys are very poor."

"Well, I know." Sherlock kept moving his hands and replied without looking back: "After all, if these people were rich, they wouldn't be interested in targeting that whale."

Nami tilted her head in confusion, "Then what are you looking for?"

"Intelligence" Sherlock held a large pile of documents in his hand, looked through it roughly, and then continued: "Many times, these things are much more valuable than Bailey, especially for people like us who are new to greatness. For a novice on the route, the information collected by these local snakes is even more precious, such as "

Sherlock talked for a long time, then turned to look at Nami, who seemed to understand. Her pair of deep black eyes were as calm as ever.

You, a stupid money addict who only cares about money, won't understand.

Looking into Sherlock's eyes, Nami once again saw his inner thoughts from the other's eyes. This made Miss Navigator extremely crazy, but she couldn't get angry because Sherlock didn't say anything.

"Did I accidentally eat a Devil Fruit? The fruit's ability is to be able to tell from this guy's eyes what bad things he is saying about me in his heart." The corners of Nami's mouth twitched slightly, with a black line on her face.

On the other side is the battlefield between Sauron and the bounty hunters.

"Ahhh" ss. Monday let out a shrill scream, and then she fainted after being squeezed by Sauron.

She really didn't expect that the green-haired swordsman would still be alive and kicking after taking an iron fist from her, and his wrist strength was so amazing.

"When you swing your fist at others, be prepared to be beaten." As he said that, Zoro stuck out his tongue and licked the blood on his face, looking at Ikarem and others in the distance with a wicked smile.

"Damn it, did the navy make a mistake in the reward order?" Ikaram looked at the Shura-like man with an extremely ugly face. He looked around, but did not find the blue-haired figure, and was stunned.

"Could it be that the princess is also attracted by this man?"

Thinking of this, Ikarem grabbed .9 by the collar and asked loudly: "Where did Weiss go on Wednesday?"

"Haha, Miss Wednesday, she went to find her duck."

Hearing this, Icarem let go of his hand and let out a long breath, which made .9 and Zoro in the distance look puzzled.
