Pirates: Beginning with the Patrolman
Chapter 31
"Record pointer, if you want to continue on the Grand Line, this thing is a must.
The situation on the Grand Line is completely different from the four seas. Here, relying solely on experience and so-called sea charts is useless..."
Krocus said slowly.
To put it simply, the hydrological and climatic conditions on the Grand Line are too changeable and complex, and it is easy for navigators to get lost if they only rely on sea charts.
Fortunately, the magnetic fields between the islands are different, and these magnetic fields also link the two islands. At this time, with the help of the record pointer that can store and capture the magnetic field, it is easy to find the correct direction.
In the first half of the Grand Line, there are a total of seven routes, and the islands on each route are also different. They are scattered from the Twin Capes and finally converge in the Sabaody Archipelago.
"So, where should we find the record pointer?"
After listening to Krocus's introduction, Nami asked.
"Then I don't know. Didn't you prepare it before you came? This thing should be sold in all four seas, right?"
The record pointer is a must-have item. It is used by pirates and merchant ships, so it must be sold in all four seas.
But ordinary people can't find such a merchant. Remos decided to go directly to Crocus, so he didn't think about it. Nami was completely unaware of it.
It is definitely impossible to go back now, so Nami rolled her eyes.
"Uncle~~~"
She suddenly made a very coquettish voice.
Crocus trembled all over.
"Just help us. You see, we finally got here. Can you bear to see us fail as soon as we set out?"
Nami stepped forward and grabbed Crocus's arm and shook it back and forth, and Crocus's sun lounger was about to be shaken down.
"Ahem, don't, don't shake it."
"You promised to help us?"
"..."
Crocus opened his mouth and finally sighed helplessly.
"Come in with me."
He stood up and walked into the lighthouse, and Remos and Nami followed immediately.
After entering the lighthouse, Krocas came to a wooden table, stretched out his hand to open the drawer, and revealed hundreds of record pointers inside.
"Wow, why are there so many? Eh? Uncle, why are you blushing?"
Nami shouted in surprise.
Krocas's old face was almost full, and he cleared his throat.
"Pick one for yourself, I'll give it to you."
"Forget it, let's buy it, uncle, you first introduce where these pointers go, and by the way, help us consult which road is most suitable for us."
Nami stopped when she saw the good, she didn't plan to get the record pointers for free, and agreed to spend money to buy them, but she needed Krocas to provide additional information.
This time Krocas didn't hide it anymore, and briefly introduced the seven different routes, including which islands were on each route, what the conditions of these islands were, and what benefits they would bring to Remos and others, etc.
Anyway, he told everything he knew.
Remos didn't say a word the whole time, just quietly watching Nami and Crocus interact.
Of course he knew Crocus would sell the record pointer, there was no need to think about it.
After all, Crocus was a lighthouse keeper here, and he probably didn't have much extra income. Apart from anything else, he always had to spend money on food and drinks, right? Where did the money come from? It still had to rely on selling the record pointer.
Needless to say, those big caravans had already prepared before entering the Grand Line.
Pirates are different.
Especially those fledgling, inexperienced little pirates, they would definitely rush in without any preparation. At this time, after introducing the importance of the record pointer, he could make a deal.
With his strength, he didn't have to worry about being robbed. The big pirates didn't care about this little money, and the little pirates couldn't beat him. It was that simple.
As for why it was given directly to Luffy in the original work? Remos guessed that it was probably related to Lab.
Besides, if others don't recognize Luffy's hat, how could Crocus not recognize it?
So isn't it reasonable to give some extra help?
Nami and Crocus whispered to each other for a long time, and finally she selected three record pointers and put them in front of Remos.
"Hey, my good captain, you have been watching the show for so long without giving any advice. Now you choose, choose one of the three."
"The other routes are directly abandoned?"
Remos smiled and asked.
"Uncle said that those routes are all small pirates, and I guess you don't like them. These routes are popular routes. The previous waves of pirates with some strength also took these three routes. If we act quickly, we may catch up."
Nami explained.
Indeed, Remos entered the Grand Line to hunt big pirates. Only in this way can he quicklyTo become stronger, the small shrimps in the East China Sea alone are not enough to fill his teeth.
He was too lazy to even look for pirates like Black Cat Rock and Clown Buggy, who were not bad, and simply left them to Luffy as small monsters in the Novice Village.
"Then, choose this one."
Remos did not ask where the three pointers pointed to, anyway, he just picked one of them based on his feeling.
"Okay, then it's decided, uncle, how much is this pointer?"
"Ahem, money or not..."
"Uncle, if you do this again, I will really change my mind!"
"Then, one million is fine..."
Krocus's eyes were erratic, and he finally failed to completely give up this income.
Of course, Nami wanted to buy not only a recording pointer, but also a matching permanent pointer.
"Wait, why do you have to buy a permanent pointer?"
Remos was dumbfounded when he heard it.
If the record pointer can indicate the direction of progress, then the permanent pointer is to point to a certain island, which can facilitate ships on the sea to travel on a fixed route.
The two have different functions, and the prices are even more different.
Even if the record pointer is purchased at the original price, a few million Baileys are the maximum, while the permanent pointer is at the level of tens of millions of Baileys.
"Of course it is to indicate the direction. Uncle said that the next stop of the pointer we chose is an island called Little Garden. The record pointer must stay there for a year before it can point to the next island, so we still need to buy a permanent pointer. What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
Nami obviously didn't know the price of the permanent pointer.
After listening to her words, Remos showed a stunned expression.
Little Garden?
The pointer he randomly selected just now turned out to be the line that Luffy took?
Remos never thought that not only did he steal Luffy's navigator, but even the direction of the Grand Line overlapped with the other party.
What kind of luck is this to achieve these two achievements at the same time?
