Pirate Merchant

On the sea at night, Mu Qian avoided everyone and rode alone in a small lifeboat, riding the warm wind and sailing towards Xiluobu Village alone.

He successfully landed on the east side within three hours of the fast boat.

After landing on the shore, Mu Qian quickly ran towards the village. Under the moonlight, a cloud of mist rose and enveloped the whole small village, while he was hidden in the mist, quietly dormant in the village stand up.

The starry sky gradually faded with time, and Mu Qian, who was hidden on the roof, caught a trace of a strange 'temperature' moving rapidly towards the beach.

After noticing that trace of temperature movement, Mu Qian also started to act gradually.

If the person he was following was as light as a cat, then he was a ghost that even cats could not perceive.

Mu Qian has been following the light cat to the coast, and as soon as he arrived at the beach, he saw a big ship with the pirate flag of a cat with a skull and two bones biting it, parked on the coast.

And the black shadow raised its head as if saying these things, but soon the black shadow left the seaside and disappeared into the forest.

"The captain is too. It's just a small village. You don't need to be so cautious in order to get the treasure, right?"

"Hahaha! That's it, what's the trick? I think it's just an idiot Crowe! He's so cowardly that he dared to go out at such a late hour?! I said, you don't think the fog here is too big Is it gone?"

After Crowe left, the pirates on the ship began to laugh, but what they didn't know was that a 'guest' had already boarded on the pirate ship.

"Is Usopp here too? Hehe, take this opportunity to correct your mistakes in the first half of your life, Usopp."

Mu Qian who boarded the deck looked at Usopp who fled in panic on the river bank.

It has long been expected that his warning tomorrow morning will be ignored by the villagers, and even angered by the scene of residents being attacked.

"Hey, Sam, why is there so much fog on the boat? Where did you take the boat?"

Zangol, wearing a black captain's suit with many hoops, stepped backwards onto the deck.

Seeing the sea with extremely low visibility, he was dissatisfied and asked Sam among the catman brothers who didn't care why there was such a heavy fog and was sleeping soundly on the deck at this time.

"No, we're near the coast, maybe it's just the morning fog that's unique to this area?"

Sam yawned and curled up in a corner of the deck, his lazy appearance was very cat-like, a hunchbacked cat so ugly that it made people want to vomit.

"It always feels kind of weird."

Zangao walked near the deck and looked at the thick fog with visibility less than half a meter, feeling a little uneasy.

"It hurts, when did my hand hurt?"

Zangol, who stretched out his hand in doubt and waved the mist, withdrew his hand in the piercing pain on his palm.

When he withdrew his hand, the glove on his hand was cut into hundreds of tiny cuts, and hundreds of tiny wounds that were slowly overflowing with blood appeared on the palm of his hand.

"Curiosity will kill the cat. I advise you not to ask questions in doubt or scream in pain."

Zang Gao, whose palm was slashed once just by waving his hand, turned pale.

But when he wanted to shout and prepare for battle, the palm of his hand was suddenly placed on his shoulder from behind, and the bone-chilling cold made him shut up.

"You are too tall, sit down"

Standing behind Zangao, Mu Qian's body was hidden in the mist, erratic, like a real ghost.

And in his order, Zango, whose clothes were already wet with sweat, and froze, slumped down on the ground in fright.

"Very well, Mr Zango, I like smart people."

Mu Qian patted Zang Gao on the shoulder and commented on his clever approach.

"Mr Zango, I am very interested in your ex-captain, he will be a very good gift, so I came here to ask you to 'help', and I believe, Mr. Zango, you must be A wise man who knows how to scrutinize."

Looking at Zangao who was sitting on the ground trembling in fear, Mu Qian kept stepping back to give him a safe distance.

However, his indifferent voice combined with the thicker fog made Zangao roll his eyes and was so frightened that he passed out.

The next day, just after dawn, the Black Cat Pirates slowly landed on the northern coast, and then rushed to the distant slope amidst the loud noises of the pirates.

But when the pirates rushed up the slope, a small stone accurately shot a pirate on the forehead and knocked him down, and the small stone that was shot was Usopp who had just rushed over and was already out of breath. .

"It's a pirate game like a child's play. If it were me, I would definitely not choose this place to log in. Instead, I would make hooks to log in from the cliff and sneak into the village. Hey, these pirates are really lazy."

Mu Qian, who was resting with his back against the cabin wall, sighed and complained while watching the battle on the coast.

Only the bloody battle of Sauron, who came belatedly, was a little bit interesting, other than that, it was just playing tricks.

But from the current point of view, it should be Luffy and Sauron who didn't kill those pirates, right? After all, with Sauron's strength, it is impossible for the cut pirates to have such shallow wounds.

"You really can see it, the pirates here are sent by you? Hiss. It hurts."

And when Mu Qian waited patiently for Baiji Keluo, who appeared late on the stage, to be killed, and then went to pick up the leak by himself.

Nami's voice suddenly sounded beside him, and his attention was all focused on the coast, so he didn't find Nami who came on board to 'treasure hunt'.

"Would I hire such a stupid pirate? I'm here to catch them. I want to do business with the Navy, so Baiji Keluo is my meeting gift. Are you hurting your shoulder?"

Mu Qian slightly looked back at Nami who was bleeding from the shoulder, shook his head slightly, tore off the clothes on his body, sterilized them with high temperature, and bandaged her shoulders for her.

"Thanks."

Nami looked at her shoulder which was bandaged by Mu Qian stupidly.

After staying with two straight men, Luffy and Zoro, for a long time, she was a little uncomfortable being treated suddenly and gently.

"But it's really in line with your style of not interfering in other people's affairs. Did you give Usopp the metal slingshot in his hand? He is obviously a coward, but he dared to fight with pirates with a slingshot, and his head was hit by a stone ax Didn't back down and run away"

Nami, who was standing beside Mu Qian, looked at the anxious battle on the coast, with yearning in her eyes.

She also wants to have the courage and determination to bravely resist like Usopp.

"Aren't you quite courageous? I saw that you were the one who saved Usopp at first, and you were the one who got back the sword for Sauron."

Mu Qian pressed Nami's head and rubbed it fiercely, making her staggered and unable to stand upright.

"Stop rubbing my hair! Don't treat me like a child! I'm eighteen!"

Nami, who was completely unable to resist Mu Qian, was staggered by Mu Qian, and kept beating Mu Qian's chest with her fists, trying to escape.

"Hey, you are really good at finding treasures. Anyone who sees them has a share, so you should give me a third, right?"

After rubbing Nami's hair enough, Mu Qian let go of Nami's messy short hair, looked down at the packed gold at her feet, and teased her.

"Don't even think about it! And! Aren't you the owner of the caravan?! Except for oranges, there are goods on your ship! Where is your money hidden?!"

Nami pouted and straightened her hair. She, who was quietly hunting for treasure on the Lucky, asked Mu Qian in an extremely displeased manner.

"I hid it at the bottom of the ship. All my fixed funds were exchanged for gold by me, and then fused into a part of the hull of the Lucky. If you have the ability, steal it all. The total value of that large piece of gold is about 360 million Wanberry."

Mu Qian clasped his hands in front of his chest with a smile on his face and said to Nami leisurely.

"Are you challenging me?!"

Nami was stunned for a while, and she asked angrily after being irritated by Mu Qian's smile.

At this time, she silently made a decision for herself to steal all of Mu Qian's gold.

"That's not true, I just want to tell you that your berries and gold are hidden too conspicuously, do you need me to 'clean' for you? I have enough 'clean' berries, of course, I will charge you 10% commission."

Mu Qian's gaze silently landed on the tattoo on Nami's arm covered by the clothes.

On the other hand, Nami blocked that position with her hands extremely sensitively, her expression turned livid, and she instantly understood the meaning of Mu Qian's words.
