"So, why on earth did you buy these two barrels?"

After hearing Shanks say that he just came out to check on the situation, Shalai looked at the two barrels of wine in his hand very speechlessly.Since they didn't come out to buy, why did they buy these two troublesome things.Although she knew that there might be no difference between the weight of two barrels of wine and two pillows for Shanks, but with these two conspicuous things, it was very inconvenient to ask for information.Who is still holding a wine barrel when talking harshly!

"I bought it if I thought it tasted good. Is there anything wrong with that?" Shanks didn't understand the complicated inner activities of Sarai at all, but looked at her who raised this question strangely.

Well, it was her fault, she didn't understand what she wanted to do, she was so stupid.Once again, she gave up the good communication with Shanks, took Shanks to her own room in the opposite hotel, and signaled the other party to put the wine in her place first, and then come to get it after inquiring about the information.

"Sarai, you are already living in the capital, which is really convenient." Shanks said as he put the wine barrel into the gap in the aisle, and then exited the room without looking inside.

Sara was a little surprised by Shanks' behavior, and he didn't know whether he was concerned about being a girl, or because he had a lot of secrets, so he didn't plan to touch her personal belongings.Although she is also confident that he can't find anything.

After this incident, Shalai, who had a slightly better impression of Shanks, exchanged information with Shanks after they returned to the noisy street.

"When I met you, I was trying to climb in through the window. But the strange thing is that even though I confirmed that I didn't touch any switch when I unlocked it, I was still discovered by the guards inside. In that temple, either There are people who ate some special devil fruit, or there are people with knowledge and domineering people sitting in the town."

"Wow, you are really good, Xilai, you can pick locks."

The point is this?

Sha Lai felt that the anger that she had managed to dissipate had flared up again, looking at Shanks who praised her seriously, she felt very powerless.

It's been a long time since she left the Port Mafia two years ago, she seems to have never met someone who would make her so frustrated.But even in Hong Kong and Heilongjiang, facing Dazai Osamu, she can't move her head, but he can also take part in the fight when Chuya comes to fight. Although she will be retaliated badly afterwards, she is not afraid of Oda Saku.

But Shanks...

She couldn't beat and beat, and she couldn't speak.I really don’t know why, but Shanks is different from Dazai’s shrewd and terrifying alien, he is a pirate who can do whatever he wants, but she can’t always figure out his thoughts.This feeling is really uncomfortable.

"Then Shanks, how much do you know about that temple?"

If it's dark, it's okay for her to ask clearly.

"Well, maybe you can't enter without forcibly destroying it, but this building is very important to the people and cannot be forcibly destroyed. Haha, it's really distressing."

so you don't know anything...

Sha Lai silently moved his eyes away from Shanks, and sighed silently.I decided to pinch my last sliver of expectation for this person, and treat him as a mobile pendant.Although this pendant is not only powerful, but also very willful.

After experiencing probably the most exhausting morning in the past year, Sarai finally waited for the time when Shanks was going to meet up with his partner.Smiling and rejecting the other party's invitation to play, Salai said goodbye to Shanks happily, and walked in the opposite direction firmly.

Now she would rather give herself a good psychological hint to face Lieutenant General Polusalino's narrowed eyes and strange tone of voice, and she doesn't want to stay with Shanks anymore.

However, I didn't expect that the red-haired pirates would come here at this time. With them, it is estimated that the power of this country will be messed up even more.Although this is a good thing for her, judging from what Shanks said just now, that Beckman has also come. With him, her actions may be much more difficult.

Tsk, if I had known this, I should have said that the cufflinks belonged to her in Chambord, and had nothing to do with the royal family's treasures. Maybe it could have dispelled this person's curiosity.But now that it has developed like this, it is estimated that no matter what anyone says, Shanks will not leave until he finds the royal family relic in the temple.

Sha Lai, who found that the burden on her shoulders had increased again, decided to find a place to have lunch first, and then think about these annoying problems after eating.

But it seems that the bad luck of Xi Lai is not over yet. When she finished her meal and wandered around the palace to investigate, before she memorized the terrain, all the hawkers in the market near the palace made a loud noise. At the same time, he tore down his own stall, took out weapons from the bottom of the stall, and kidnapped the people who were selected in front of his stall.

"Don't move, we are the rebel army, if you want to survive, kneel down and raise your hands!"

You'd be a fool if you didn't move.At the moment when these people started to set up the stall, Shalai, who sensed something was wrong, hid in the big tree next to her with her shaving steps, avoiding the ensuing chaos.

It is said to be chaotic, but it is actually a bit orderly.The rebel army in the bazaar was divided into three teams. One team continued to tie up those kneeling civilians with ropes; Looking at something, judging from the shape of his lips, it seems that he is asking the queen to come out to negotiate.

This is not good, Shalai, who was hiding in the tree, changed her position without making a sound, so that she could better observe the situation at the entrance of the market.

These rebel troops seemed to be very organized and disciplined, not at all like an army assembled by the people, but like a regular army that had been trained for at least three or four years. Although the number was less than one hundred, it should not be underestimated.What's more, they also took hostages.If the deeds of the Queen Mia rumored by the people are true, then whether it is to continue to maintain that image or for the people of this country she loves so much, she must show up.

But—thinking of a good idea, Sha Lai bent the corners of her mouth, took out a cosmetic bag from the inner pocket of the coat, and after applying it on her left face, she was satisfied to see that the self in the mirror was gone Scar, completely turned into a handsome young man.

Although all the remaining disguise materials were used up, if the plan really went smoothly, half of her goal would be achieved.After putting the cosmetic bag and some not-so-sightly things on her body into the cloak in the morning, Shalai also stuffed some of the stuffing on her body to make herself look stronger, and opened it up. Tie a knot and tie it to the top branch.

Very well, she is now a thin and handsome young man.After adjusting her clothes without making any noise as much as possible, she deliberately shook the branch, causing some noise.

"who!"

The guards below were not ashamed of the high evaluation she gave them just now, and immediately found out that something was wrong. After the group of people holding the hostages and making them stand in line, they immediately separated half of them with guns. Facing the canopy, the sound of the bullet being loaded was undoubtedly the best threatening sound.

"If we don't come out we're going to shoot, three—"

"Wait, don't be so barbaric." Accompanied by a lazy voice, the rebels saw a young man wearing obviously expensive clothes climbed down from the tree.

Although the brown-haired young man looked a little thin, the expression on his face was not timid at all.His slightly upturned eyes looked impatiently at the soldiers in front of him raising their guns to fight him, and slowly raised their hands, with a kind of condescending disdain in his words.

"I'm the only child of the Jewel family, Diamond Jewell. If you don't want to offend the biggest jeweler in the sea, you'd better not point that at me."

The young master of the Jewel family?

The rebel army hesitated for a moment, then you looked at me and I looked at you, not knowing what to say.For a while, the atmosphere of the market froze.

"I heard that this country recently took a lot of gems from the national treasury to sell. I didn't expect to encounter a storm at sea. It was too late, and the gems were taken away by the navy. Empty me is annoying enough, so stop pointing at me with those things. You know what our family's financial resources can do, right?"

Probably because the young man's slightly contemptuous expression fit the appearance of a rich man's young master. Many of the rebels put down their guns, and they seemed to have been bluffed by him.

Withdrawing the foreword, the psychological quality of these rebels is average. It seems that the training they received was not very professional, and it was all aimed at combat.

Seeing the hesitant expressions on the faces of the remaining rebels who were still pointing their guns at her, Shalai was about to add fire, but was interrupted by a refreshing and polite voice.

"Is it the young master of Jewel's family? That's really rude, but why are you staying alone in the tree, young master?"

It seems that there are still people who can use their brains.Sha Lai narrowed her eyes and looked at the young man who was walking towards the sun.

He seemed to be just over 20 years old, with short silver hair shining in the sun, bright blue eyes, thin lips with a proper arc, and a youthful vigor on his face. It's easy to fall in love with him.He was dressed like most of the people in Simirip, a straight-collared button-down shirt and baggy dark trousers suitable for the tropics.But the clothes that look cheap on others are worn on him with a high-end sense of custom-made clothing.

He walked up to Sha Lai without any weapons, waved his hand to make the rest of the people put away their guns, and said gently: "It's not that we are suspicious, it's just that the organization is not big enough to withstand redundant Toss."

"I saw that tree was nice and suitable for a nap, so I went to sleep. Is there anything wrong with that?" After simulating Shanks's brain circuit a little bit, I was speechless when I saw the other party. After looking powerless, I felt a little relieved.Well, Shanks's magical brain circuit is indeed beyond comprehension.

But you can't overplay it, it's still important to get down to business.

"Of course I won't bring guards when I go out for a walk, but I don't think I need to prove anything to you. I don't care who is fighting who in the civil strife in your country. It has nothing to do with me. If you let me go now, I can take the I leave the jewels on my body to you. Wars cost money, and if you cooperate well, I will—"

Before Xilai finished her long speech, she stopped because of the cold metal feeling on her neck.

The silver-haired man who was smiling and nodding in front of her one second, suddenly stepped forward the next second, and pressed the knife in the palm of his right hand to her neck.

"Okay, even if you are that Diamond Jewell, since you know your worth, didn't you think that we would take you as an important hostage and use it to threaten the queen of this country?"

"You said, if you died because the queen of this country refused to compromise with us, would your father hire some great pirates from the New World to kill the queen of this country?"
