The Worst Fruit Among Pirates

North Sea,

The Kingdom of Rafal, the town of Spedamairouz.

Although it is called a 'town', this industrial processing area lined with chimneys fully deserves the title of 'city'.

The population exceeds 50, and countless families depend on the factories here.The double dragon flags hung majestically on docks and factories control the fate of most ordinary people in this city: they have more power than the low-key city hall.

"Hey, be gentle..."

Pier 1 belongs to the 'private domain' of the Don Quixote family.However, it has not been used for several years, so there are specks of shantytowns on the edges.

In one of these shantytowns, two workers wearing hard hats walked in, supporting a worker with an injured leg.

The small shack is fully equipped with everything: beds, cooking utensils, old oil lamps, everything that should be there, but compared with ordinary people's homes, the things in the shack are obviously tatters picked up from the garbage dump and 'repaired'. .

"What's going on here?"

A middle-aged man stood up in the shack, also a low-level worker. He lived with the injured in this small shack.

"I accidentally broke my leg on the construction site."

The worker who broke his leg carelessly patted his other intact leg, as if talking about someone else.

"You won't be able to work this way. You don't expect me to make money to support you, right?"

The middle-aged man in the shack helped the injured man sit down.

The injured worker smiled and said,

"For work-related injuries, the Don Quixote family will compensate you."

Upon hearing that there was compensation, the middle-aged man happily patted the other party on the back.

"Isn't that great? Why didn't you get smashed to death on the construction site? For a person like you who has no relatives or friends, I might be able to share some of the pension after your death."

The two men were ordinary people fleeing from the same place.Not only them, but the people in the surrounding shacks all came to the same place: their hometowns had been burned to ruins by pirates.

reason?

It seems like someone said something like 'One Piece is a bastard'?

Maybe some other reason?In fact, it doesn't matter. Anyway, when a pirate kills someone, all he needs to do is say, "I'm happy, sir."

Fortunately, this city is controlled by the Don Quixote family, and the demand for workers in a large number of factories has always been strong, giving these ordinary people who fled here a way to survive.

Especially for ordinary people, such as middle-aged people and workers with broken legs, who have all their relatives dead, if one person has enough to eat and the whole family is not hungry, they will not end up at sea and become pirates.

"I won't die if you die."

The worker with a broken leg punched the middle-aged man in return.

"It smells like meat. You've stewed the meat. Did you catch anything from the longline fishing today?"

People who live in this world basically have one or two fishing skills: setting long fishing lines in the ocean close to the water to catch bluefin tuna, yellowfin tuna, swordfish and other fish that are commonly found in offshore waters. fish.

"Yes, you are in for a treat."

The middle-aged man served the mushy fish soup from the "stove" next to him, and used a small iron box with half of it missing to fill a bowl of fish for the worker who had broken his leg.

"Take it up and it will be ready soon. Let's get back to work soon."

As for whether he will die or not, it's just a joke.None of them died when the pirates ravaged their hometown, so naturally they didn't want to die after they settled down.

"Send some to the two little girls next door. It's not easy for them either."

If two grown men can still make a living by working in a factory, then it will be much more difficult for two sisters who live in the same village as them, where everyone in their family is killed and only two little girls escape.

A 10-year-old sister and a 2-year-old sister are not accepted by factories or restaurants, so they have to wash clothes for fellow villagers in slum areas in exchange for food.

Just as the two workers in the shack were supporting each other, a loud noise suddenly sounded outside.

"What's going on? It's so noisy?"

The worker who was drinking fish soup was stunned and looked outside the shack in confusion.

"I gonna go see,"

The middle-aged man stood up, pushed open the curtain of the shack, and as soon as he leaned out half of his body, he was stunned.

"what's the situation?"

silence,

Deadly silence,

After a few seconds of silence, the middle-aged man at the door suddenly trembled and made a hoarse voice with his interfering throat.

"Double Dragon Flag..."

clang,

The broken small iron box in the hand of the man with an injured leg fell to the ground, and the fish soup spilled all over the floor.

Double Dragon Flag?

Impossible, this is Pier 1. Even the ship of the Don Quixote family will not dock here unless——

The Don Quixote brothers are back? !

----

"Ok?"

On board the Jackdaw Flamingo, which was slowly approaching Pier 1, Rossi glanced around and discovered that there were "spots" of shacks around the pier. It was obvious that some poor people lived here.

"Hmph, that guy Bolkin."

Torebol snorted coldly, his face obviously displeased.

Why is it that Pier 1 is also the 'exclusive berth' for family cadres, yet a group of refugees are an eyesore here?

"Don't worry, let's see what Bolkin says."

Rossi looked up at the city in front of him: his Dover made his first deal here, befriended Torepol and the four of them, and together they took over the Jeti family, using it as a base to slowly develop and grow. .

Now it can be considered a 'homecoming'.

Unfortunately, there are no friends or family to show off.

"Hurry up!"

At this moment, a group of people came flying from the city, led by a dignified young man in a suit and tie.

"Then...is that...Lord Bolkin?"

The expressions of the workers in the shack changed when they saw the leader.

Bolkin, the underground of this city... no, the actual ruler!He controls 10% of the city's factories and indirectly affects the lives and deaths of tens of millions of people. He can be said to be the 'uncrowned king' here.

But now, such a big man rushes in with a nonchalant demeanor!

Behind him, there were a group of bodyguards in black suits and sunglasses, as well as a dozen "big shots" such as pot-bellied factory owners and production managers. Everyone was sweating profusely, but holding back their flushed faces. Pier 1 gallops.

"Yo, Bolkin!"

The Jackdaw Flamingo docked slowly at the pier. Faced with Bolkin who was speeding towards him, he knelt down on one knee. Torrebol, who got off the ship, sneered and pointed at the 'spots' around the pier with his cane. .

"The 'King' of Spida Mairuz is so majestic. Doesn't he care about us anymore?"

"This is absolutely not the case, Lord Torrebol!"

Bolkin, who was sweating coldly, glanced at the shacks around the dock, his teeth chattering.

These guys whose hometowns were destroyed by pirates, Bolkin took pity on them and allowed them to get a job in this city. As a result, this is how they 'repaid' themselves:

He actually went to Pier 1 to build a shack! !

Moreover, he was caught by the adults who returned quietly. Is it true that the left-behind cadre of his family, as Mr. Torrepol said, did not take the adults of the family seriously?

Damn it, it’s all because that ‘Steel Devil’ Amata involved a lot of energy, I didn’t expect...

"I'm very sorry. I'll 'clean' this place right now!"

Bolkin, whose vest was covered in cold sweat, stood up and took out his belt——

Clang!

It was not a belt, but a soft sword made of memory metal.

"follow me!"

After saying that, Bolkin leapt towards those shack areas with one leap. The soft sword made of memory metal in his hand cut through the sky, causing a scream and making Dover nodded slightly.

"good,"

It seems that Bolkin's personal strength has improved a lot in the past few years. Measured in terms of bounty, he has at least a strength of about 2000 million.

Although it is not worth mentioning to the family, it also shows that the other party has not forgotten to exercise.

In this world, strength is fundamental.

"It's over, it's over..."

In the shack, the middle-aged man who witnessed all this was so pale that there was no trace of blood in his face.

Facing the raging pirates, they could still escape; but facing 'Lord Bolkin' who controlled a city and rushed towards him with murderous intent, they didn't even have a place to run!

Behind Bolkin, a group of black suits also took out their flintlock rifles and followed Bolkin's footsteps and rushed towards these shacks, preparing to kill.

Even if everyone here is slaughtered, no one in this city will say a word.

"Uncle Drew, what happened?"

At this moment, in the shack next to the middle-aged man, a girl with wavy grass-green hair and golden pupils lifted the door curtain and stuck her head out.

In the gap in the door curtain, there is another little girl with the same grass green color, biting her fingers and trying to look outside.

? !

"Monet, run!" Almost instinctively, the middle-aged man rushed over and blocked the girl's shack.Anyway, his wife and daughter had already died by the pirates' swords, and they were just alive...Might as well do something meaningful:

"Take your sister and run—"

call out!

Just when the middle-aged man with open arms roared, Bolkin's long sword had already cut a whistling death trajectory towards him and the shack behind him.

With this sword strike, even a house will be split in half, let alone a mere flesh and blood——

"and many more,"

As a calm voice rang out, Bolkin, who was still holding the stance of slashing with his sword, froze in the air.Even those who rushed past the black suit with flintlock guns stopped in place in various postures, like a group of statues.

"This uncle just called you 'Monet'?"

The black feathered coat cast a large shadow, causing the girl with long wavy green hair to raise her head and subconsciously squint her eyes.

"Yes, it is,"

The visitor's eyes fell on the little girl hiding in the shack nearby.

"What's your name?"

"Sugar, because I like sweet things the most."

The little girl biting her fingers replied, and the next second, a handful of candies was stuffed into her little hands by the squatting man in the black feather coat.

"Well, I'll treat you to some candy."

? ? ? ?

While everyone in the dock was stunned, Rossi stood up.

This is really a no-brainer.

Monet, sugar.

"Polkin,"

As Rossi spoke, the stiff Bolkin suddenly relaxed, and subconsciously fell to the ground. If he hadn't immediately inserted the sword in his hand into the soil to stabilize his body, he would have lied down directly: and those bodyguards in black suits Same.

"exist!"

"well done,"

Bolkin patted his whole body as if he had been fished out of water, looking confused.Rosie pointed behind her:

"Bring these two young ladies to the family headquarters and let the matter here be settled."

? !

"Okay...yes! We can definitely do it, Lord Rosinandi!"

The next moment, Rossi, who had finished explaining the matter, appeared next to Dover in the dock team.

"Rosie, who are those two girls?"

Faced with Torebol's question, Rossi touched his chin.

"Two talented young talents,"

"Oh?"

Torebol was stunned. If Rossi could say, "Good talent," he would surely grow into a strong player in the future.In fact, even if the Monet sisters don't have fruit abilities, they are definitely not weak.

'Future' Sugar can accurately shoot down a group of small human warriors, not relying on the fruit's ability, but its own physical skills and domineering power.

"Hey, hey, I didn't expect there to be 'talents' here, so let's spare their lives."

Now that Rossi has spoken, Torebol will naturally not insist on killing these refugees.He was mostly just venting his anger and beating up Bolkin.

"Let's go back to 'Rose Manor'."

Led by Dover and Rosie, a group of "revisiting" people swaggered through the city and headed towards the manor on the hillside.

----

after an hour,

"So, a new family named 'Steel Devil' has emerged in this city?"

"Yes,"

In the hall of Rose Manor, facing the family cadres sitting or lying down, Bolkin answered seriously.

"That guy is very powerful. He has entangled a group of desperadoes and is constantly squeezing out the Silk Family's industry. The Vinsmoke Family is fighting for other countries, so..."

"In the past few years, we have begun to develop our own strength. It is not a good idea to rely on the power of the Vinsmoke family. After all, the Don Quixote family is already famous in the Grand Line."

Next to him, Wesker raised his head slightly, still wearing the familiar gold-rimmed glasses. He and Bolkin, one civil and one military, were responsible for the Don Quixote family's business in Beihai.

"In addition, the revolutionary army has been active everywhere in the past few years, which has involved a lot of our energy, so what happened at Pier 1. I am also responsible. Please punish me, sir."

Facing the two people who were half kneeling on the ground, Rossi waved his hand.

"Forget it, for the sake of 'windfall', I will forgive you. By the way -"

Rosie looked up at the little girl serving tea and water next to her:

Wearing a black and white maid outfit, she looks only four or five years old.There is a big bow on the top of her head and long black wavy hair. She is very cute and cute.

Is this fate?

baby-5!

That's right, baby-5 was the one who took the initiative to join the Don Quixote family at this time, so it's normal for him to appear here.

"you,"

Rosie pointed to baby-5, who was still a little girl.

"Do you know where the 'Steel Devil' family is located?"

"Huh? Yes, sir!"

The little girl was stunned for a moment and immediately nodded in reply. The cruelty of this world makes most children mature very early.

"So,"

Rosie turned to look at the others,

"Which one of you is going to take a walk?"

Faced with this problem, Vergo stood up directly.

"It will be up to me, the number one executioner of the family, to take off their heads."

After saying that, the tall Vergo directly twisted the back collar of baby-5 and spat out cold words:

"lead the way."

"Huh? I'm needed...Ah, okay, over there——"

boom! !

With a loud noise, strong winds surged in the hall of the 'Rose Manor', and Vergo had already disappeared with Baby-5 in his hand.

?

"Lord Rosinndi, the strength of that 'Steel Devil' Amata..."

After waving his hand to stop Bolkin's anxious words, Rossi raised his chin.

"Bring me the account books from the past few years."

Where's Virgo?

There is no need to worry at all!
