Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship

Chapter 18 You call these dumbbells! ? (Please read~)

"Very good! Very energetic!" Chihong grinned.

Immediately, he pretended to order to Nami:

"Straw Hat Pirates Navigator Nami obeys the order!"

"Now I order you in the name of the vice-captain of the Straw Hat Pirates..."

"Find a hotel for these two guys to stay."

“Then go shopping with me!!!”

"As you command!"

Under the power of money, Nami replied sonorously, and then froze for a moment.

She blinked blankly: "Shopping!?"

…

…

Half an hour later.

After successfully helping Luffy and Zoro find a restaurant and ordering a large table of food, Chi Hong took Nami to the streets of Shields Town.

Although under the tyranny of Monca for several years, Shields Town was far from its former prosperity and fell into depression.

But a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

After all, this is an island with a naval base stationed there, and the types of shops are relatively complete, enough to meet Chihong's needs.

"So, you asked me to go shopping with you because you asked me to help you negotiate prices!?"

Nami was surprised at first, and then looked at Chi Hong with speechless and contemptuous eyes.

Chi Hong smiled coquettishly: "Please, please~ After all, I really don't have much experience in this area."

"So we have no choice but to mobilize this old gangster!"

"Really~" Nami sighed and said slightly helplessly: "How many grown men can't even buy things?"

"Forget it, tell me, what do you want to buy?"

"Ah!" Chihong touched her chin and thought, "Actually, there aren't too many things to buy."

"Daily supplies...exercise equipment, oh, by the way!"

"Most importantly, we need a ship!"

"Ship!?" Nami raised her eyebrows: "You don't want to tell me... you don't even have a ship to go to sea now, do you?"

"That's right!" Chihong slapped her palms: "As expected of the ice-snow and smart Nami!"

"You're so smart!"

Snapped!

Nami, with one hand on her hips, slapped her forehead and complained feebly: "You don't even have a ship, but you are clamoring to be the Pirate King, the world's greatest swordsman, etc..."

“How idealistic are you guys!!!”

"Hehe, is there nothing we can do about this!?" Chihong smiled apologetically: "After all, we have just gone to sea."

"Anyway, let's take care of the most important ship first!"

Nami frowned: "Don't blame me for not reminding you..."

"If you don't have extra funds, you can't buy a decent ship with just a few million beli."

"It doesn't matter." Chihong had already expected it: "I just want a temporary ship with a deck that can allow Luffy and the others to move around."

"I've got my eye on a boat on one of the other islands that will be out in a few days."

"What!?" Nami suddenly stopped and looked at Chihong incomprehensibly:

"You mean...you're going to spend millions of beli just to have a temporary space while sailing!?"

"you……"

Nami was suddenly speechless and suppressed the question "Is your head okay?"

However, Chihong smiled indifferently: "Huh? What does it matter? It's just a few million Baileys."

"Just...a few million?" Nami bit her lips in surprise: "Are you rich people so mean to talk?"

Recalling the history of blood and tears when she earned her first million, she really wanted to kill Hong Hong.

If I couldn't beat you, I would have beaten you to death!

Looking at the red figure in front of her, Nami cursed in her heart.

But at this moment, Chi Hong, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped!

Just when Nami suspected that the other party had mastered some mind-reading skills and heard her own words, Chihong slowly turned around and asked with concern:

"Nami, you look like... you care about money?"

"...Huh?" Nami didn't know why, but she immediately replied: "Of course! Who doesn't like money in this world?"

"No!" Chihong shook her head decisively: "There are indeed many people who like money, but there is definitely something wrong with your desire for money."

"so……"

"There's some trouble that needs a lot of money to solve, right?"

"I……"

Nami stopped, suddenly raised her head, and looked at Chi Hong.

The moist sea breeze blew through the tips of her golden-orange hair, floating slightly in the air.

For some reason, through her red, dark and deep eyes, Nami seemed to see a hint of pity hidden deep in her eyes.

It was as if... he had seen through his miserable life.

People were coming and going on the street, hurriedly passing by the two of them, and no one paid any attention to the young man and woman staying there.

"so……"

After a moment of silence, Chihong spoke again: "I guessed it right, right?"

He stepped forward and walked in front of Nami.

"Although I don't know what you have been through these years, I hope you can know a little bit..."

"Both I and Luffy sincerely want to invite you to be our partner!"

"So, if you really have any difficulties, you can feel free to trouble us!"

Red patted her shoulder gently to express comfort.

"You have seen Luffy's strength."

"We don't even pay attention to the navy..."

"Do you still think there are problems in this small East China Sea that we can't solve!?"

"Anyway, you should think about it carefully."

"But don't let it affect your work too much, after all..."

“I really don’t know how to bargain!!!”

As soon as the words fell, Chi Hong directly took Nami's arm and walked forward quickly.

Being familiar with the plot, of course he knew what the root cause of Nami's illness was?

But rather than pretending to be deaf and waiting until the time is right to solve the problem, he hoped that Nami would take the initiative to tell them everything.

He believed that after seeing the strength displayed by Luffy, Nami would definitely think about it.

The rest depends on how long it takes for her to put aside her grudges and take the initiative to seek help from them.

Chihong believes that this time will not be too long.

…

…

As the saying goes, although a sparrow is small, it has all five internal organs.

Although Shields Town is not very large, it has three small shipyards because it has a naval base.

Of course, they are all factories run by ship repairmen themselves.

The main source of income is building some small fishing boats and selling them to local people. The other is being called by the naval base to undertake some hull repair work.

After Nami's persuasive talk, Chihong finally succeeded in spending 300W Bailey to buy a second-hand small sailboat.

Although the hull was somewhat tattered, it had a decent deck and enough cabin for each person to have a small bedroom.

After purchasing the boat, Chihong and Nami did not stop. They walked around Shields Town vigorously and purchased a large amount of daily necessities, and...

…

…

evening.

Full of expectations, Luffy and Zoro, led by Red and Nami, rushed all the way to the port of Shields Town.

And there, an inconspicuous sailing ship docked at the port.

but……

Luffy and Zoro suddenly stopped, and the look of anticipation in their eyes for the ship was instantly replaced by something strange.

Arriving at the coast, Sauron spoke first, pointing to the strange sight on the sailboat...

On the not-so-large deck, there were four huge metal lumps, two of which were connected by a thick steel pipe.

Just looking at the severe waterline of the small sailboat is enough to show how terrible the weight of these things is.

"What is this?" Zoro asked.

"Ah?" Chihong paused, then smiled slowly:

"This is the barbell you and Luffy use for training. I asked the boss who sells steel to use all the materials in the warehouse and rush to build it."

"We can only do this at the moment. We can go to Rogge Town later to see if there are any advanced materials, and then we can replace them."

"…………"

Sauron fell silent suddenly, and after a long time, he slowly said:

"It sounds like you're not satisfied yet?"

"So...is this for us?"

"Nonsense! Do you think Nami and I can lift it?"

Red gave Zoro a confident look.

What he got in return was Sauron's stiff and blank gaze, as if he was saying:

"Does it look like I can lift it up?!"
