Mihawk was a little dumbfounded. He belatedly remembered that he didn't know how to control such a big creature. He could have ridden the giraffe with Xiaoba and separated when they arrived at Fishman Island.However, it was too late to say anything, so he had no choice but to pull out the black knife, poke its tip out of bubbles, sit firmly on the sea beast, pull the rein hard, and tried to give a turn command like a horse, ape Shaking his head, he turned half of his mountain-like face to stare at him. Mihawk secretly strengthened his hand holding the black knife, and looked at the huge eyes without fear. After a while, the ape roared , with a flick of his tail fin, he followed the direction of the giraffe and quickly swam to the fishman island.

Mihawk held the rein tightly. The ape swam fast and bumpy. He felt that the bubbles on his body were about to be washed away by the current. He gritted his teeth and swung the black knife. The force of the wind counteracted The sea current generated by the fast swimming of the sea beast kept going and cut off a few manes on the top of the ape's head.Mihawk just felt more comfortable, and almost slipped off the sea beast's back because of this accident, and then he saw the sea beast lowered its big head, and continued to swim, still at a fast speed, but in a much more stable way.

The swordsman calmed down a lot, and then he couldn't laugh or cry. He didn't expect that there were not only murlocs and mermaids that were unfriendly to humans, but even sea beasts knew how to show power to others, and they were also a bit bullying.He lowered his head and noticed that Murloc Street was right below him, and the sea beasts didn't swim too high. He could vaguely see the aborigines on the street looking up at him, and some people were pointing with their arms outstretched.

The red hair must really want to experience riding a sea beast. Mihawk slowly bent down, hooked his thumb on the rein that he didn't need to pull hard, stretched out half of his palm, and touched the long hair on the sea beast through the coral bubble. Long fluff, he guessed they would feel good to the touch, though the bubbles prevented him from actually feeling them.Maybe he should talk to the redhead about it, Mihawk's face is calm, but his mind is free to think, and then he'll see that guy's seldom dejected face again, like missing takoyaki as always.Then he had a flash of inspiration, and finally recalled why the name "Jinping" made him feel familiar. It seems that Xiao Ba should be looking for a very reliable reinforcement. Although the situation is urgent, he may not be able to find it again Special product of Murman Island was delicious.

When Shanks regretted expressing his regret that he did not stay in Murloc Street, so he could not ride the sea beast alone, Mihawk put the Bubble Coral filled with the atmosphere of Charlie’s house and the little wine he didn’t look at carefully. The bottle was handed to Shanks together, and the red-haired pirate's expression changed suddenly.

Mihawk didn't bother to observe his traveling companion who was still playing tricks just now, and took advantage of Shanks' quiet time to have more exchanges with Beckman face to face.They reached a common understanding on more details and assumptions, including that the girls in the Mermaid Cafe have all heard the name Xia Li, and have helped to contact colleagues from all over the island to pay attention, the red-haired pirates The members also went deep into various casinos, taverns and other mixed places to inquire about information; including that the kidnapper must have a certain understanding of Murloc Street, he or she knows the legend of Xia Li, and also understands the consistent behavior of the Markulo family; including Xia Li is likely to be in an environment far away from sea water. Sharks and mermaids can summon sharks to help out. They are not ordinary girls who have no power to fight back; even though Xia Li's prophecy has always come without warning, it is unknown whether hypnosis or The fruit ability will have an effect on it and so on.The black hands behind the kidnapping of the mermaid are not without flaws. Many small clues are laid out in front of them, but there is nothing crucial to connect them.

Shanks listened for a while, and finally yawned greatly, intervening between Mihawk and Beckman, interrupting their further discussion. "There's no need to cover everything. We are pirates. We don't need sufficient evidence to convict anyone, and we don't need to catch the real culprit with one hit. We just need to find Xia Li as soon as possible." Looking at the bubble filled with the air of Xia Li's house, but his smile is too bright, so he is not at all like a Tianlong who disdains to breathe with everyone, "Don't you want to know what I found?"

These words made Mihawk and Beckman stare at him together, Shanks slowly restrained his smile, lifted the small empty wine bottle, and he looked at it with tender memories in his eyes, "I I haven't seen this kind of bottle for many years, but I still remember that this is a kind of wine from Xihai. Xihai doesn't make strong wine very much, and there is no particularly famous good wine. This small bottle is the most popular wine in Xihai. It’s a pure fruit wine, but how pure is fruit wine? There’s nothing outstanding about it, and it’s not worth selling on the great voyage, so I haven’t had it since I went to sea.” He laughed again , turned his eyes to the farthest distance he could see, "I thought it wasn't strong enough when I was young, but after I left my hometown for a long time, I still miss its taste. I drank too much good and bad wine, and I think the wine made from the water in my hometown is the best, people are really strange." The red-haired pirate finally pulled out the bubbles on his head with some reluctance, "It's rare to smell this smell again, but unfortunately I can only smell it and watch it , Arouses gluttons and can't drink it, it's torture."

Beckman struck a match and lit a cigarette again, "You can bring Xihai wine all the way to Murloc Island, the boss, a fellow from the same town, is much better than you back then."

"Even the murlocs who run errands for him can drink this kind of wine, I think he must have brought more than one bottle," Mihawk looked at Shanks for a long time, then suddenly interjected, "If we can find him sooner, Maybe there will be additional gains.”

Shanks' eyes lit up immediately, and he threw Coral Bubbles away casually, "Then you are not allowed to snatch this spoil from me!"

9. Chapter 9

The second encounter with the tall blue-skinned murloc in two days surprised Shanks. Mihawk withdrew a few positions to the edge, and the red-haired pirate and the officer of Murloc Island made a short Greetings.When Xiao Ba turned his eyes for help, he silently pointed to Beckman.The first mate of the Reid stubbed out a cigarette butt, and held a new one under his fingertips. He clearly explained the clues they deduced together from the main to the second, and did not forget to point out which ones were Miho's. Gram's credit.

Jinbe's expression became more serious with the explanation. He lit the cigarette, and then casually lit a cigarette for Beckman, and nodded seriously. "There are a few important things right now," he said slowly while thinking. Said: "I have to mobilize the brothers in the army to find clues to Xia Li; I also need to carefully check the human beings who only have records of entering the city and have never left, especially those who came from the West Sea... Well, I have to do it as soon as possible." Go back to Murloc Street and have a good chat with Markulo."

"Nu, I'll go to the tavern where Markulo always goes." Jinbei's arrival seemed to reassure Hachi a lot, and the octopus man no longer seemed flustered, and he turned his head to look at Mihawk again, as if a little Difficult.

Jinbe stretched out a hand to stop Xiaoba from what he wanted to say. He looked at the three human pirates with a solemn expression, "I heard Xiaoba tell the whole story. I did my best, thank you very much." He tapped the ash on the edge of the table, "I will return to Murloc Street later, and I can get your boat back...Although Aaron and I haven't seen each other for a long time, he can Give me this face, we all grew up together."

Shanks straightened his face when he heard the words, and Beckman nodded slightly behind him, but he turned his eyes directly to Mihawk.The swordsman who hadn't spoken for a long time was holding the black knife in his arms and drinking a glass of red wine. He put down the glass and looked at Shanks, "This is the first time I've come to Fishman Island, and I still want to have a good time sightseeing, don't worry Walk."

Shanks laughed suddenly, he turned around, pushed a glass of wine to Jinbei, his tone was very relaxed, "Thank you for your kindness. But I think, once the agreement between the pirates is established, no matter what happens, we will We must keep our promise... Xia Li hasn't found it yet, and we don't plan to return to the ship, I think we can search separately, if you can share the latest clues, I will be grateful."

"Of course." Jinbe took out a phone bug from his pocket, dialed a different number, arranged to find someone and check records, and exchanged phone bug numbers with Shanks, agreed to communicate at any time, before leaving Before that, he looked at Shanks very seriously, "When I find Charlie, I'll treat you to takoyaki."

Shanks' eyes lit up immediately, and Mihawk who was sitting behind also straightened up, Hachi scratched his head with one hand, and walked with Jinbe, without mentioning the matter of asking Mihawk to follow him.The swordsman belatedly remembered that he should have told Xiao Ba that he had let go of the sea beasts that were not allowed to enter Murloc Island. It seemed that he swam back to Murloc Street by himself, and then thought that Xiao Ba would not be ignorant of such a thing , and tasted the special snacks of Mermaid Cafe on the table with peace of mind.

"I'm a little hungry," he pointed to the small dishes on the table, "Have you all eaten?"

"We were planning to go to Murloc Street, and we don't know how long we'll be staying, so we've already eaten." Shanks returned with enough of the glass of wine that Jinbe didn't drink, and raised his glass to Mihawk, "Don't worry Eat it, it's all yours."

The swordsman nodded, leaning the black knife in his arms aside, his appetite whetted.Shanks looked at him eating calmly and seemingly enjoying the delicious food, he laughed unconsciously, and after a while, he restrained his smile with awareness
