Chapter 57: Collection of Wanted Orders
The streets of the town were bustling with people.
Lynch saw the red-haired guy off.
"You asked me before, since you've been to sea, why do you want to be a captain yourself..." Shanks held the hilt of the knife at his waist and stopped to ask, "Lynch, if you go to sea in the future, will you be a captain yourself, or will you live under a certain flag?"
Lin Qi asked curiously: "Why do I have to choose between the two? Can't I take a merchant ship? If that doesn't work, the flower boat is actually pretty good." He touched his chin.
Shanks laughed, "You bastard!"
"Anyway, I'm not interested in being a captain." Lynch finally became serious and said after thinking for a while, "But it seems that there are only a few flags on the sea that are worthy of my service!"
"..." Shanks smiled and frowned, carefully looked at the young boy in front of him, and suddenly asked: "Lynch, how do you know...Moria's devil fruit ability?"
Lin Qi said: "I just know it."
Shanks nodded, "Okay then. Do you want to come to my ship?"
"No." Lynch said.
"Okay." Shanks smiled.
He looked around but didn't see Lynch's strange ghost. He didn't know whether Lynch hadn't let it out or it was wandering somewhere else.
Lin Qi said: "If you become my captain, how can I fulfill my promise and make you a landlubber?"
Shanks stuck out his tongue and made a face, "You can't do that!"
"Goodbye!" He turned and left, raising his fist and waving.
Lin Qi was also about to wave goodbye, but suddenly he touched his pocket and was shocked!
In front, Shanks held a few Bailey's bills between his fingers, and smiled back as he walked, "Don't forget, I'm a pirate!"
Lynch smiled and gave him a middle finger, then bid farewell to the red-haired guy and disappeared into the crowd.
The surrounding streets are bustling with people.
…
"call!"
Lin Qi exhaled forcefully and patted his cheeks, "Another person... What should I do next? Well, let's go get something to eat first."
He returned to the hotel room, withdrew some money, and saw a green Den Den Mushi crawling all over the floor, so he picked it up.
"You won't even turn on the phone. Looks like you've spoiled me!"
Lynch flicked Little Green's snail shell, and with a click, he accidentally cracked the shell.
“…”
Lynch and the green Den Den Mushi opened their mouths at the same time, with shocked expressions in perfect sync.
"Am I that strong?" Lin Qi didn't look at the green Den Den Mushi's expression. He put the green one in his pocket guiltily. He walked to the wall facing the street, put his hand on it, and used the Pipe-Pipe Fruit to open a hole as tall as a person - as tall as him - and quickly passed through it, jumping from the second floor of the hotel to the street outside. "I've been exercising for more than two months, and it's not without effect!"
………………
At this moment, somewhere on the coast of this island.
Whoosh, whoosh... The black wide windbreaker fluttered, and the tall figure stood on the shore facing the sea breeze.
The salty sea breeze was suddenly mixed with a faint smell of blood.
A pirate ship slowly docked.
On the deck of the pirate ship, da, da, da... a guy who looked very shabby and had a pale face slowly walked out.
And in his hand, he was dragging a large sack.
The sack was bulging, as if it was filled with something, and at the bottom, it was soaked with black and red liquid, emitting a strong smell of blood.
The pirate looked up and saw a tall figure wearing a star mask, a windbreaker and a hood waiting for him on the shore. He immediately felt his legs go weak.
"I... I didn't run away..." he said tremblingly.
Although along the way, it was that terrifying murderous ghost who used blood plasma to mark the direction of the voyage...but at this moment, he had no idea whether the murderous ghost was still around, and he dared not guess.
Plop! The pirate grabbed the mouth of the sack and accidentally fell into the sea when he got off the boat, and then he hurriedly climbed ashore.
Not only was he soaked through, but the sack that he dared not let go of was also soaked in sea water, and the outlines of the spherical objects inside it could be vaguely made out.
The hem of the black windbreaker approached. The pirate was startled and looked up. The big man with the star mask raised his hand and grabbed the air, as if he had grabbed something, and pressed it towards his own star mask... It was like he was wearing another mask.
The pirate was so shocked that his pupils turned pale. He clearly saw that the hand that the windbreaker-masked man had just extended was... not a hand. Between the gloves and the sleeves, there was nothing.
The soaking wet pirate began to tremble all over.
"BIB" pointed at the pirate and the sack in his hand, then pointed towards the island behind him.
The pirate stood up swiftly, clutching the sack.
Go! Go now!
Where is the base of the Navy branch? I want to go there now!
Help! This is so scary, I don't want to stay here for even a second!
………………
Lynch walked on the street, buying various snacks along the way, and he basically finished all of them within a few seconds of getting them.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
He sucked his fingers clean and opened a carton of milk.
Lin Qi was a little emotional when he smelled the fragrance of milk after a long time. He was almost used to the quiet and lovely little sister Robin making him flower milk tea...
Gulp, gulp, Lynch took two sips and found that the little guy in his pocket was making a lot of noise.
"Why, you want to drink too?" Lynch took out the green Den Den Mushi and poured some milk into his palm. The little green one immediately stretched out his neck to lick it crazily. In a few licks, the little milk in Lynch's palm was licked clean. Lynch poured some more, and it was licked up quickly again. This repeated process, the green Den Den Mushi drank until it was full. At this time, Lynch also noticed that the crack on the little guy's back shell that he had flicked out had disappeared as if it had never existed.
Lynch smiled and put the satisfied Den Den Mushi back into his pocket. He looked up and saw that the base of the Navy branch was not far ahead.
After looking around, Lynch indeed found a small shop, which had a thick stack of pirate bounty warrants compiled into a book and was for sale.
"How much?" Lynch took one.
"Ten thousand Baileys." The boss looked at him for a few times, thinking that he was just a bored boy, and did not take him seriously.
"Are they all the latest bounties?" Lynch casually flipped through the collection of West Sea pirate bounties in his hand. As expected, among the ones with higher bounties, he found Tran Pilot, whose bounty was 21 million Baileys, and the few subordinates on his ship whose bounties were decent.
"Of course it's the latest one!" said the boss, reaching out to take back the collection of wanted notices. "Don't look at this kind of stuff, kid. Where's your parents?"
Lynch casually turned sideways to avoid the boss' claws. He simply flipped through the book and indeed did not find the captain of the Wind Chaser Pirates, Lugia, who had been killed by his "BIB" a long time ago, and then the townspeople went to the naval base to exchange the bounty, and then handed the bounty over to the "BIB". "Since it's quite new, then this is it!"
Lynch slammed ten thousand Baileys on the table and turned away.
The boss stared blankly at the back of the boy who was constantly looking through the bounty notices as he left the house.
"...What a strange boy."
………………
At the same time, at the base of the Navy branch, in the office responsible for handling bounties.
"Is this really the head of that Tran Pilot?!"
Several marines looked at the ground in shock.
From the soaked sack, human heads rolled out. Among them was the famous pirate in the West Sea, Trunk Pilot, whose bounty was as high as 21 million berries! "Joseph Sbeend, 19 million berries... Wood France, 5.5 million berries... Hip Kevin, 2.2 million berries..."
The Marine officer was in disbelief as he flipped through a stack of wanted notices, comparing them one by one with the heads of the pirates whose deaths were horribly grisly on the ground. Every time he read out a name, he became more shocked.
The other marines present looked at the big man in windbreaker and mask who was escorting the only surviving pirate, and they all couldn't help swallowing their dry saliva.
What a terrifying aura... coupled with the pirate beside him who was already shaking like a sieve, and the bloody pirate heads scattered all over the ground, it was even more unacceptable to approach...
When did such a ferocious pirate hunter appear...
How could they have wiped out the Trond Pirates without making any noise? ! "BIB" kicked the trembling pirate, who had already been eager to ask the navy to arrest him and explained the whole story. Their group of pirates was completely wiped out by this big man in a windbreaker and mask! "In that case..."
Although the navy thought this bounty hunter was very silent, and wore a large windbreaker, a hood, and even covered his face with a mask...but there is no shortage of eccentric bounty hunters. If they can destroy more pirate groups, the navy would like to have more eccentric bounty hunters like this...
After waiting for a while, the navy finally paid out all the bounties, a total of 52 million Baileys! As the navy in the room watched with complicated expressions, the big man in the windbreaker with the star mask turned around and left with the cash box without saying a word.
At this moment, the office door was pushed open, and a short boy holding a book poked his head in.
When he passed by the burly man in the windbreaker and mask, the navy officers in the office couldn't help but sweat for him. They didn't know where this kid came from... This taciturn weird pirate hunter was really ruthless and didn't talk much. It really made people worry that he would kick the boy aside...
"Uncle Marines, can I get some information about this pirate?" Lynch flipped through a page of the bounty order and held it up to show the marines in the room, "I want to catch this bad guy!"
If I write another 1,000 words, it can be split into two chapters... What a shame!
