After Darrow gave up the semi-finals, Izumi Yuki and Izumi Riko also entered the final as they wished.

The match between the two was scheduled three days later.

It just so happened that Darrow planned to take advantage of the three-day interval to settle the matter of the ship first, and then stay on the island for a few days to accompany Lu Jiu, and then planned to go out to sea for adventure.

Some supplies for going to sea can be prepared now.

Undoubtedly, this important task will fall on Sonny Ruo, who has been an agent for so many years, has many contacts, and is relatively clear about the situation on the island.

So, in the afternoon.

Darrow found Saniro and settled all the expenses of the agent with him, and at the same time gave him a bonus of 500 million Baileys.

"Boss, aren't we going to bet on the final?" Sonny asked unwillingly.

The previous game was really good for him, so it would be a pity for Sonny to hear that Darrow stopped.

"Well, we won't participate in the finals, but there are more important things for you. Go to the pier to see if there are any boats for sale, and tell me if you have any." Darrow turned to Sonny A solemn confession.

"Also, I need you to help me purchase the items on this list. You can hand over this matter to a few of your companions, or just put it in the previous warehouse."

After finishing speaking, Darrow took out a list from his pocket and handed it to Sonnyro.

"it is good."

Sonny Ruo didn't say anything after hearing it, and went out with the list, and went shopping non-stop.

During the battle with Izumi Liqian the day before yesterday, Darrow lost a lot of grenades, so I need to add them.

In addition, there are some necessities for going to sea such as meat, canned food, and kitchen utensils on the list, which need to be prepared in advance.

After meeting Sonny, Darrow went back to the tavern.

Darrow hoped to spend more time with Lu Jiu during the period before going to sea, after all, when he went to sea, he didn't know when we would meet again.

The tavern was still so lively, the final three days later brought a huge flow of customers and became the biggest topic in the tavern, almost every table was discussing who would win and who would win the game three days later.

"I didn't expect that Izumi Liqian was so strong!" A green-haired customer on the bar said to his companion.

His companion took a sip of the rum and said in amazement: "Yeah, I really didn't expect that, at least I still regarded him as a soft-horned sheep. I didn't expect to be able to make it to the final."

"Hey, the little boss is here."

The green-haired guest suddenly saw Darrow at the bar and shouted loudly in the tavern.

After he shouted, all the guests in the tavern turned their attention to Darrow.

After all, in the previous rounds, Darrow's performance was very strong. Many people regarded him as a dark horse to win the championship, and his retirement in the middle of the game made him even more controversial.

"Little boss, why did you retire in the semi-finals?" At the wine table near the bar, a customer raised a wine glass and asked Darrow.

"Haha, didn't I get injured in an accident, and I don't think I can beat that Izumi Liqian, so let's retreat." Darrow said with a wry smile, pointing to his hand, the fake Bandages tied.

"Is that so..."

"It's a pity, I'm very optimistic about the little boss." Darrow's explanation aroused discussions among the guests, and everyone felt sorry for him.

Darrow couldn't stop talking about the guests, and tapped the shaker glass with a mixing spoon three times, attracting the attention of the guests all at once.

"To express my apologies, all tickets are free, everyone have fun!" Darrow said loudly.

A short sentence, like a spark falling into a pile of grass and trees, immediately ignited the atmosphere of the audience.

"Oh!!"

"Long live the little boss!!

The guests were also very supportive, raising their glasses one by one to gesture to Darrow to thank him for his generosity, and the atmosphere in the tavern reached a climax.

When the climax fell, the shouting in the tavern also became a little quieter, but there was still a burly man shouting there:

"Long live the little boss, I love you little boss!!"

After the man shouted, he realized that everyone's eyes were on him, and he buried his head in the wine glass in front of him in embarrassment.

"Hahaha…"

In the next second, there was a huge burst of laughter in the tavern, and everyone was immersed in the ocean of joy.

Lu Jiu's beautiful eyes also narrowed into a beautiful crescent moon.

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

Sonnyro was very efficient, and he brought good news to Darrow the next morning.

"At the pier, there are a total of three ships that intend to sell." In Darrow's room, Sonny said solemnly while holding a notebook.

After speaking, he spit on his hands seriously, turned over the first page of the notebook and began to introduce:

"The first one is a fishing boat. It is old and in poor condition, but it should still be usable. The advantage is that the price is relatively low. The owner asked for 850 million yuan. If you negotiate the price, you should be able to get it at around 800 million yuan. come down."

Darrow didn't speak, but he had already ruled out the fishing boat.

Because he worked in the fish farm west of Laoqiao before, he is very clear about the structure of fishing boats. Generally, fishing boats will have a fish storage pond for storing fish, which will take up a lot of space in the cabin.

Moreover, fishing boats that have been used for a long time will always have a fishy smell, which is also unacceptable to Darrow.

"The second one is a sightseeing boat. It was put up for sale because of improper management. I want to get back the funds, but the price is relatively high. It needs about 4800 million. It looks relatively new, and it should not have been used for long."

If Sonny still didn't respond when he saw Darrow, he continued to introduce the situation of the third ship.

"The third ship is a merchant ship. It is said that it was improved from a pirate ship purchased by the Chamber of Commerce from the Navy. It ran for a period of time for long-distance freight. Later, because the boss gambled and became insolvent, it was taken out for auction. Yes, it should be about 3000 million yuan."

After listening to the introduction of the third ship, Darrow's eyes lit up, and he asked Sonny, "Can you tell me more about the third ship?"

"Yes, this merchant ship was originally a pirate ship of the Black Fang Pirates. It was confiscated by Major General Carter half a year ago and sold to this chamber of commerce. It is a medium-sized ship and has not been in use for a long time. "

"Besides, because it was rebuilt from a pirate ship, the interior decoration is still very new and looks very good." Sonny handed the notebook in his hand to Daro to read.

"Well, make an appointment with the owner of the ship. Let's go and see the merchant ship tomorrow." After taking a look, Darrow took a picture of the board.

"it is good."

After Sonny Ruo heard Darrow's request, he hurried down to make arrangements.

Darrow saw the ship the next afternoon.

"That's right, it's bigger than expected." Darrow looked at the merchant ship and murmured secretly.

Darrow's pursuit of large ships is not without reason. On the one hand, it is because large ships are more stable and safer when sailing at sea.

On the other hand, it is also because of Darrow's ability. Since Darrow can compress a large amount of materials through compression, the things on the ship will be heavier. Larger ships have a deeper draft and can carry more.

"Boss, we can go up and have a look." Sonny made a gesture, and then led Darrow to the deck. Darrow was not polite, and started to look around on the boat.

The size of this ship is about the same as that of Luffy's later Wanli Sunshine.

The deck is also very spacious, and there are many gaps surrounded by iron fences on both sides of the ship, which should have been used to set up artillery, but now the artillery has been removed.

The hull is divided into three floors, including a cargo warehouse at the bottom and a cabin above that serves as a living area.

There are a total of 10 bedrooms, a dining room and a captain's cabin. The interior decoration is still very new. Obviously, this merchant ship has not been in operation for long.

Above the cabin is a terrace, on which some apples and vegetables are planted, which can effectively prevent scurvy caused by the crew not eating vegetables for too long during the long voyage.

There is a tall mast in the middle of the ship, and there is a lookout room on it. The bow is a beautiful mermaid statue, which should be left over from the previous pirate ship.

"not bad."

After observing carefully, Darrow nodded in satisfaction. The ship was well maintained as a whole, and because it was converted from a pirate ship, it could also meet Darrow's long-distance voyage needs.

Darrow was indeed very satisfied, so he instructed Sonny Ruo to come forward to negotiate, and finally Darrow won the ship at a price of 3000 million. Although there was no discount for a penny, the seller also agreed to repair for Darrow's ship for free. Renovated and remodeled.

The focus of the renovation was still the warehouse. Darrow didn't need to run freight, so he couldn't use it, so he had to dismantle it and rebuild it.

Darrow is going to convert the warehouse into a practice room and an alchemy room. Because of the compression ability, there is no need for a large-scale warehouse on the ship.

It just so happened that the remaining space in the warehouse was used in the newly built alchemy room, which could be used to place some chemical equipment and various reagents. Darrow could conduct experiments here and develop various special bullets.

Next, Darrow explained a few words to Sonny, and asked him to come to the port to supervise the work in the next two days, and to move the purchased things into the boat when he was done.

After the two parties finalized all the details and signed the contract, Darrow finally owned the first boat in his life that really belonged to him.
