Pirates: Beginning with the Patrolman

The next day, Remos met yesterday's stall owner at the dock.

"Guest, look at these shells of mine. They are all rare items."

The boss took Remos to a corner outside the dock and spread out the cloth bag, which contained more than a dozen shells of various shapes.

"Where did you get these shells?"

Remos picked one up and asked casually.

"Of course it's a special channel. This is an impact shell. It can absorb the impact force of others' attacks and then release it towards the enemy. It's like using the opponent's attack to hit the opponent. You Qinghai is quite chaotic, right? If you often encounter enemies, this shell will definitely be very useful to you."

Impact Shells are actually quite common battle shells in Sky Island. They are not necessarily very precious, but they are really hard for outsiders to buy.

"What about this?"

Remus picked up another shell.

"This is an upgraded version of the Impact Shell, called the Repulsion Shell. Sir, this is an even rarer shell. It absorbs ten times as much as the Impact Shell, and causes ten times as much counterattack. If you have an enemy you can't defeat, you can use this Repulsion Shell to strike him hard when he's not paying attention!"

The boss's face turned red as he spoke excitedly.

The ram clams are indeed rarer than the impact clams. They are an endangered species and are far less common than the former.

But Remos did not express his opinion immediately, but asked back calmly.

"So, what's the cost of using them?"

"Wha, what..."

The boss's expression suddenly became a little unnatural.

"I'm asking you, what's the price of using these two shells? Don't tell me there's no price. If you say that, I'll have to ask you to perform for me right there and then."

Remus said this and was about to take a step forward.

"No, no, no, okay, let me tell you, I'll tell you," the boss quickly took two steps back, and when he saw Remus stop, he touched his nose awkwardly, "Actually, there's no price to pay, the most is that the recoil is a bit strong."

"How strong is it exactly?"

"Well, actually I don't know either. I just heard from others that the recoil of the impact shell can easily cause serious injuries to people, and the repulsion shell can even cause death..."

At this point, the boss's shoulders slumped. In fact, this is also the main reason why Sky Island officials do not allow ordinary residents to touch and own these battle shells.

Because although the battle shell is powerful, the cost is often huge.

If ordinary people use these weapons rashly without any special training, they will only hurt others and themselves, and may even harm innocent people.

"So you want to take advantage of the fact that I'm from Qinghai and don't know the details here, and sell these things to me? If I really get into trouble, I won't come to trouble you, right?"

"Uh, haha, how could that be, how could that be..."

"..."

"Okay, I admit that I do have some such thoughts, but I'm not trying to trick you. Impact shells and repelling shells are indeed very useful and can be used to deal with powerful enemies. But when you encounter a powerful enemy and it is impossible to defeat it, maybe you can win by gambling with these shells?

I really don't want to keep them. You know, I spent a lot of money to buy these shells, but I couldn't find a seller after I bought them. I have had these shells for many years. If I can't sell them, my family will fall apart.

At worst, I can sell it to you at a lower price. If we pack everything together, how about 10 billion Iq? If 100 billion is not okay, 800 million will also be fine."

The boss said quickly.

One hundred million Iq is equivalent to one hundred thousand berries, which is only eighty thousand with a 20% discount. It is indeed very cheap.

Weapons of the same level, placed in the sea below, would cost anywhere from hundreds of thousands to several million berries, and even if you have money you may not be able to buy them.

Although this thing has serious side effects, it doesn't mean that no one wants it. Just as the boss said, you can buy it as a killer weapon and exchange it one-for-one with a strong enemy at a critical moment.

"Eight hundred million? Okay, we'll buy it!"

Before Remos could speak, Nami's voice came from the side. She was more sensitive to prices than Remos, so she knew very well that she could make a lot of money by reselling these shells directly in Qinghai.

"Really? Thank you so much, guest!"

The boss jumped up excitedly when he heard it.

It can be seen that these shells really put him under tremendous pressure.

It's not just the financial pressure, the psychological pressure is the most deadly. Since the government does not allow private collection of combat shells by the public, his behavior is actually illegal.

Once you are caught, not only will you lose your money, you may even lose your personal freedom.

Nami returned to the boat to get the money and handed it to the stall owner. The stall owner counted it and made sure that there was no problem. Then he left with many thanks.

After he left, Remos and Nami returned to the boat and began to carefully identify the shells.

The stall owner sold them a total of five shells, two of which were impact shells, one was a repelling shell, and the remaining two were a fire shell and a flash shell.

The former can create flames and is a very practical combat shell, while the latter is a bio-petal flash bomb that can release strong light.

It’s a pity that there are no Slashing Shells and Laser Shells here.

The Slashing Shell can absorb the slashing blow and release it, which is similar to the Impact Shell and the Repulse Shell.

The Laser Shell is even more powerful. It can release lasers to attack enemies. It is so powerful that it can even cut down trees. Unfortunately, this type of shell is confirmed to be extinct. Only a few remain in the world, and they are all in the hands of Sky Island Warriors.

"You can use Flame Beremos, it can increase your attack methods. I can use these. I am a power user, I am not afraid of recoil!"

Nami winked at Remos.

The good thing about being a user with natural abilities is that flaws that are fatal to others can be simply ignored by her.

Of course, Nami's distribution method itself is a bit playful. The Flash Shell has some effect on Remos, but the Flame Shell? That's just pure entertainment.

After sorting out the shells, they did not stay for long and drove the Liberty directly out of the port.

The residents of Sky Island at the port looked at them, not realizing that they were going to the Island of Gods, and continued to work as usual.

But someone noticed the movements of Remos and the other man.

In the Sanctuary of Arpaiodo, Enel closed his eyes and listened to the entire conversation between Remos and Nami.

He has the Observation Haki and can receive the radio waves of the entire Sky Island through the ability of the Thunder Fruit. He can even hear everyone's conversations, and Remos and Nami are naturally not immune. In fact, because of their status as outsiders, they are even more valued by Enelu.

Therefore, from the moment they arrived on the island, every word they said and every decision they made was heard word for word by Eneel.
