Pirate Merchant

"Robin? Didn't you say you were going to buy books? Why are you here?"

Nami, who followed Nuo Qigao into the cab, was stunned when she saw Robin sitting upright on the sofa. Although Nuo Qigao felt that she was facing an enemy, her trust in her companions Let Nami just ask Robin.

"."

"The book that Robin wants to buy is only available here. Hehe, I'll just ask her to give me eight million beri. Unfortunately, she can't afford the money. How can anyone come here to buy books without bringing enough money?"

Mu Qian glanced at the silent Robin beside him, decisively handed out a divine assist, and transferred the hatred between Nami and Nuo Qigao from Robin to himself.

"What kind of broken book are you selling for eight million Berries?! Why don't you grab it?!"

When Nami heard that Mu Qian wanted to kill Robin, she strode up behind Mu Qian, and glared at Mu Qian with her hands on the back of the sofa.

"Every commodity has its own value, just like a gem. For the middle class, it is nothing more than a brighter ore crystal. It is good to see and will never buy it, but for the rich, it is to prove to others. My rich trinkets and books are also like this, they are worthless to you, but they are worth a thousand gold to Robin~"

Mu Qian replied with a smile.

"Can you even say it openly when you sit on the ground and raise the price?"

Nami looked at the thick-skinned Mu Qian, and couldn't hold back her anger any longer. She stretched out her arms and wrapped her arms around Mu Qian's neck, looking fierce as if she wanted to strangle him.

"Hahaha~ How can this be called sitting on the ground? This is called being suitable for the place. I just sell the product at the highest price at the right time. Well, is it the latest perfume from Alabasta? Are you spraying it well? It's a bit too much, although it has no other meaning, but if you wear too much perfume, it will make people mistakenly think that you are deliberately covering up body odor! Ah!!!"

Mu Qian, who was strangled by Nami's hands, didn't feel any discomfort at all, but he was twisted by Nami, who was in a bad mouth. Because he was enjoying himself too much, he was accidentally attacked by Nami and screamed.

"Damn bastard! How could I have body odor?!"

Nami pinched the soft flesh on Muqian's waist tightly, and pinched Muqian's cheek with the other hand, with her gnashed teeth, anyone would believe that she gnawed at Muqian.

"Hehehe~"

Robin, who was sitting next to Mu Qian, covered her mouth and smiled lightly. Nuo Qigao, who was not confused by Mu Qian, ignored her hostility towards her as if she hadn't seen it.

"Hand over the book quickly, and I can save you from slandering my death penalty, otherwise I will wring your meat off piece by piece today!"

Although she was angry, Nami, who was still thinking about the book for Robin, snorted coldly, and ordered Muqian with full pirate temperament.

"In my study, the golden book cover is the one. Be careful when you read it. If the golden book pages are torn, its value will plummet by half."

Being twisted by Nami, Mu Qian gave up with a wry smile, surrendering and told Nami that it was Robin's fictional book.

"gold?!"

Nami's eyes instantly turned into Beric's symbol, and then she let go of Muqian's face and waist, and Xiang Shuxiao happily jumped into the study.

I'm not as easy to deceive as Nami. "

After Nami entered the study, Nuo Qigao with an ugly expression and Hiyori with a weird expression came behind Muqian, and Nuo Qigao asked Muqian straightforwardly in front of Robin.

"Robin thinks Luffy, Sanji, and Zoro are too noisy, so she wants to find a quiet place to rest and read, and my place is the best choice, nothing more."

Mu Qian shrugged and replied half-truthfully.

"It's really just like that?"

Nuo Qigao looked at Robin at the side, and still looked at Mu Qian suspiciously. After all, Mu Qian's strength in lying made her a little uncertain whether Mu Qian was telling the truth or a lie.

"Of course, this is a matter of principle. Would I maliciously slander the reputation of my acquaintance? Besides, if I don't want you to come in, or if I don't want you to find out, I can take her away before you even enter the bridge. Instead of sitting here and letting you catch the current situation."

Mu Qian said to Nuo Qigao sincerely, and complained in his heart why he, a single dog, insisted on explaining these things to Nuo Qigao in a rigid manner?

"Well, what you said is indeed true, and I barely forgive you."

Nuo Qigao nodded, although she herself said that she was harder to deal with than Nami, but in Mu Qian's explanation, she easily forgave him for his suspicious behavior of being alone in the same room.

"What are you looking for me for?"

Seeing that his crisis was lifted and Robin's reputation was preserved, Mu Qian breathed a sigh of relief and asked Nuo Qigao.

"Can't I come to you if I'm okay?"

Nuo Qigao put her hands on her hips, leaned slightly and asked Mu Qian unhappily.

"Of course not, you can come to me at any time, but now is my rare rest time"

Mu Qian rolled his eyes and complained about Nuo Qigao who disturbed his rest time. Although other Robin broke into his private space, she also came to fish, so she was a comrade with the same purpose, but Nuo Qigao These girls obviously wanted to drag themselves out to a banquet.

"Today the Straw Hats are going to stay overnight on the Mothership of Fortune, so we decided to hold a banquet on the Sonny tonight, so we're here to invite you."

Nuo Qigao was a little embarrassed and apologized to Mu Qian who was disturbed by him.

And as Mu Qian had guessed, these girls were here to drag him to the banquet.

"No, they are not qualified to entertain me. They will entertain me after Luffy becomes the Pirate King, Zoro becomes the world's greatest swordsman, and Sanji finds ALL BLUE. Everything else is fine, but on this ship On the ship, if others see me on the Sonny, I guarantee that all kinds of monsters and monsters will come tomorrow and want to invite me to a banquet. If you don’t refuse, it will be very troublesome. If you refuse, you won’t give others face, which will be even more troublesome.”

Muqian, who originally didn't want to go, refused Noqigao without hesitation. He would never go to this banquet.

"Indeed, we just came here to try to invite you, we won't force you to go."

Nokigao, who was rejected by Mu Qian, was not surprised at all. Instead, he nodded in agreement. From the current point of view, the Straw Hats are indeed not qualified to invite the 'Lord of the Ship' to their ship for the banquet.

"Tch, you are really disappointing."

After Muqian refused without hesitation, Nami walked out of the study room holding the ten-centimeter-long golden book. After handing the golden book to Robin, Nami clicked her tongue dissatisfiedly.

"What's so frustrating? Why don't you just have fun on your own? It's not like Luffy can't eat without me, and it's not like Zoro can't drink without me. I'll reimburse 50% of your food expenses today. Does this mean I’m involved?”

Muqian shrugged and probably guessed the reason why Nami took the lead in looking for him.

"Hehe~ This is what you said! Although 50% is not as good as my expectation! But this golden book for Robin is enough! Hum! Wait until we take it to Lavrud and come back! On the One Piece ship When it comes out, your net worth will definitely skyrocket!"

Nami, who had followed Mu Qian for two years and learned a lot of hype skills from Mu Qian, now began to expect that this golden book would be worth hundreds of millions of berries on Sonny!

"Robin, we are going shopping, do you want to come with us?"

After achieving her goal, Nami happily took her sister's arm and asked Robin.

"No, I want to take a quiet look at this book. Although it is very ugly, it contains many ancient deeds."

Robin shook his head slightly and replied.

".I said, what on earth is this book?"

Nami was stunned for a moment and asked Robin, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"Ah, a diary written by someone who ruled Beihai in ancient times. It recorded various ancient interesting things and customs, as well as the emperor's description of the appearance of the concubines who slept in his harem, and more. ."

"Wait! That's enough! Robin! I know you are very happy now! However, it is better for you to know that ancient people were extremely open-minded about these things!!!"

When Robin and the girls automatically silenced their answers, Nami hurriedly interrupted Robin who really wanted to share the ancient deeds with her and others. She was still young and she didn't want to know these things at all.

"Haha, what a cute reaction~"

Robin looked at Nami's blushing face and teased her with a smile, while Nami blushed and pulled Nokigao and Hiyori away from here under Mu Qian's gaze.

"I said, this is not the description in this book at all, right? If I am not wrong in the translation, this should be the national code of more than two hundred years ago, right?"

Mu Qian angrily complained about Robin, who scared Nami away. Her jokes were much worse than his own.

"It's cute, isn't it?"

Robin smiled and did not answer Mu Qian's question directly. Instead, he asked him.

"Yeah, it's really cute."

Mu Qian touched his chin and recalled the way Nami ran away with a red face, and nodded in approval.

"I can't take this book away for collection. It is too expensive. Its value is not just the price of gold. It is a priceless treasure to the country that wrote this book."

Robin carefully touched the golden book in his hand and said to Mu Qian with a solemn expression.

"It doesn't matter. I have copied the rubbings of this golden book. Its value to me is only 8 million berries. I thought you would like it, so I kept it. It was originally given to you. Just accept the gift."

Mu Qian picked up the coffee pot on the table, poured a cup of coffee after heating it, and explained to Robin while drinking.

".Give it to me? But now hasn't it been given to Nami by you?"

Robin was silent for a while, then asked Mu Qian with a wicked smile that was mixed with ambiguity and questioning.

"Don't worry about these details. Am I here to help you out? You looked worried at that time, so I changed the subject. And, do you think Nami will care about what is recorded in the golden book?"

Mu Qian shrugged and turned his palms down with an innocent face. A ball of red metal slowly rose from the ground at his feet in the high temperature. As the bubbles burst and rolled, a ball of high-purity gold separated from the metal pillar. came out, and was gradually tempered and shaped in the high temperature. Finally, an extremely rough golden book condensed and took shape beside Mu Qian.

Holding the rough golden book in his hand, Mu Qian condensed an ice crystal knife and began to carve it. After a while, a golden book with the same golden book cover as Robin's hand was carved by him.

"So, I will not destroy the priceless treasure in other people's hearts for the sake of millions of Beli. Well, this golden book weighing tens of millions is given to Nami, that money-crazed man, and the priceless treasure in your hand is given to you. , there won’t be any problems in scoring like this, right?”

Mu Qian shook the thicker golden book in his hand, and said to Robin confidently.

".You know Nami very well."

Robin smiled lightly at Mu Qian's complacent explanation.

"It's a pity that you don't know me well enough, Unicycle Flower Nachi~"

Just when Mu Qian was wondering why Robin said that, a white arm grew out on his right forearm, and then grabbed the cooled golden book in his hand and handed it to Robin.

"So that's how it turned out, it really is a pirate~ They actually stole two priceless golden books from me at once, so amazing~"

Mu Qian lay down on the sofa and clapped lazily, praising Robin feebly.

"Really, you knew from the very beginning that my purpose was to get you a golden book, right? You pretended to talk so much to me?"

The empty glove white wolf got an extra golden book, the smile on Robin's face disappeared, and he complained about Mu Qian without any sense of accomplishment, and a small white hand grew on Mu Qian's shoulder to pinch Mu Qian's nose Gently tugging, teaching this unpleasant man a lesson. .

"I don't know anything, and besides, wouldn't it be tiring to know everything? This is equivalent to giving candies to obedient children. Do adults care about the children's tricks to get one more candy? He only cares whether the children have enough candies eat."

Mu Qian, whose nose was pinched by Robin, replied in a muffled voice.

"It's such an unflattering answer, that's why Nami hates you. You are too perfunctory to everyone, and you never put someone on the 'only' in your heart."

The arm that grew out of Robin's neck pinched Mu Qian's nose and gently pulled it back and forth, appraising Mu Qian's attitude towards others dissatisfied.

"What young girls want is the 'only'. No one is willing to share their precious things with others, but you can't give them a sense of security. You are afraid that you will lose someone if you care too much about someone, but, don't you Are you not afraid that you will lose everything in the end?"

Robin grew an arm on Mu Qian's other shoulder, squeezed his fist and tapped Mu Qian's forehead lightly, wanting to make him smarter.
