Selling Pokémon from Pirates

Chapter 217 Their respective paths

A pair of fair and slender thighs suddenly stepped through the door of the sea restaurant Bharati, instantly attracting the attention of the males near the door.

The next second, a pink-haired girl was seen slowly approaching the restaurant.

The girl was wearing a pure white dress that covered her hips, clinging tightly to her tender skin, setting off a very graceful figure.

Coupled with her smart eyes and pink lips, she looks like a girl from an ancient aristocracy, full of elegance and mystery.

“Welcome!”

When Paddy, the welcome waiter at the door, saw a new customer entering the store, a very scary smile immediately appeared on his big dark face, and he stepped forward to greet him.

However……

Just when the diners around thought that this beautiful girl would let out a piercing scream under Paddy's beast-like hospitality like most of the previous female guests.

The new beautiful girl just smiled gracefully, nodded slightly, and asked very gently:

"Excuse me, is there anyone named Sanji here!?"

At this moment, the beautiful girl standing in front of Paddy was none other than Reiju, who had been ordered by her father to come all the way from the North Sea to the East China Sea to find Sanji.

Despite the high technology of the Vinsmoke family, the speed of the snail ship she was riding on had reached an astonishing level.

But when she felt the East China Sea, the Pokémon League tournament came to an end.

Fortunately, Barati Restaurant still has a good reputation in the East China Sea, so Reijiu finally arrived on the second day after the conference.

"Sanji!?"

When he heard that the beautiful woman in front of him was actually looking for that bastard Sanji, Paddy's face immediately showed an expression of disbelief.

A thoughtful look flashed across his eyes.

The sharp-eyed Paddy saw Reijiu coming off a pair of special boats, and looking at her clothes, he confirmed that she was not a poor person who could not afford the meal. A bright smile immediately appeared on his face, and he led Reijiu to a

dining table.

"This guest, are you looking for Sanji, our sous chef? Please take a rest, I'll call him over right now."

"Oh, right!"

Paddy suddenly smiled, spread the dishes in his hand on the table, and said again:

"This is our chef's signature dish. You can take a look at what you're going to eat during this period."

"Okay, thank you."

Leijiu's tender lips parted slightly, and she nodded in thanks.

…

…

At this time, deep inside the restaurant.

The quarrel between Sanji and Zoro has also entered a heated stage.

Even though Zoro has just received 50 years of life essence increase, in terms of pure momentum, Sanji, who has the blood factor, is really not much worse than him.

Neither of them was willing to give in for a while.

However, they were noisy. The two brothers Arrita, Kebi and Johnny at the table next to them seemed to have been used to it and continued to eat the delicacies on the table without any influence.

As early as in the Alabasta battle area, they had experienced the same scene countless times.

Although they didn't know why Brother Zoro, who had always been calm and had no shortcomings except being a fool, seemed to be a different person when he saw this perverted cook and had to have a big fight.

It's almost like two people are destined to conflict.

And just when Zoro was about to draw out the Japanese Ichibando and Sanji was about to burst out with the power of fire, Paddy, who was running all the way, finally found Sanji.

"Hey, Sanji, there's a beautiful girl at the door, asking for you by name. Do you want to go over and take a look at her!?"

Big beauty!!?

As if he had entered a correct password, Sanji's expression, which had been tense with Zoro just a second ago, suddenly changed.

The two eyes turned into pink hearts, and the feet stepped out like a horse chasing the wind, creating a phantom.

"Beautiful beauty!? Where is the beauty!?"

Upon hearing the word "beautiful woman", Sanji instantly put aside all hatred, and his figure passed directly past Paddy and flew towards the dining area at the door.

"This perverted cook!"

On the other side, seeing that he was ignored by Sanji, Zoro suddenly became even more angry.

However, Sanji had already left at this time, and he had no place to vent.

He turned around and took a look at the few delicacies left. He snorted dissatisfiedly and sat back in his seat.

"Master Zoro, eat it quickly, it won't taste good after it gets cold."

Kebi persuaded very naturally.

The other three people on the side also quickly agreed.

Every time Zoro and Sanji end their quarrel, they will give Zoro a break in this way to make him look better.

after all……

Whether in Alabasta or here in Barati, the food they eat is all made by Sanji, a perverted cook.

Without saying this, Zoro would be too embarrassed to eat.

In this way, with the persuasion of several people, Zoro calmed down and began to continue eating.

When the food on the table was about to bottom out, Kebi, who couldn't eat anymore, patted his stomach gently and asked as if he suddenly remembered something:

"By the way, Master Sauron, where are we going next?"

"Do you want to go back to the Grand Line?!"

Before, they went to the Grand Line mainly to participate in the ranking competition of the battle area.

Now that the Pokémon League Tournament is over, even if you want to participate in the next Pokémon League Tournament, there is no need to rush to the battle area.

Upon hearing Kebi's question, Zoro, who was eating, suddenly paused for a moment.

After a while, he swallowed the food in his mouth and shook his head slightly.

"Don't go back to the Grand Route yet."

"Lauren came to me specifically yesterday and said he wanted to invite me to visit his kingdom and talk about some things."

"After we finish eating, let's go to his place first."

"King Lauren!?"

Alita, who was well-informed, suddenly raised her head, with a glint of expectation flashing in her eyes, looking like a nymphomaniac.

"I heard that it is the country with the largest number of Pokémon in the world, and their clothing industry is also very developed. It's a good time to go there to do some shopping."

Even though Arrita looks ugly, she wants to be beautiful in her heart.

It is said that all the costumes in the Kingdom of Coast are made of high-quality silk threads produced by Pokémon.

If she wears clothes from that country, her beauty will definitely be improved a bit.

"Forehead……"

Zoro paused for a moment, and an embarrassed cold sweat suddenly dripped from his forehead.

After all, they had been together for so long, and even he was embarrassed to say that Alita was ugly again, let alone Kebi, Johnny, and Joseph, who were suppressed by Alita in terms of force.

In order not to let the delicious food he just ate go to waste, Zoro quickly changed the subject.

"That's right! Alita, Kirby, Powerful and Joseph, you can take this time to think about what kind of Pokémon you want."

"Pokémon!?"

The few people who were eating suddenly looked stunned, and then their eyes flashed with excitement.

Our Pokémon?

What's the meaning?

Could it be that Brother Zoro (Boss) (Master) wants to help us buy Pokémon!?

All of a sudden!

The eyes of the four people changed instantly, staring at Zoro closely like children waiting for their old father's birthday gift.

"Forehead……"

Seeing everyone's reaction, Zoro's relaxed tone suddenly stopped.

Because they had to compete in the Pokémon League Tournament, almost all the Baileys and supplies their team had accumulated during this year were given to Zoro to exchange for points.

Arrita and Kebi, one was born as a prisoner and the other was Sauron's apprentice, so forget them.

But Johnny and Joseph have been working hard and respectfully. Apart from the occasional guidance, they have not received any benefits from Sauron.

And if it weren't for the existence of these two people, even with the navigation function of the mobile phone Rotom, Sauron would not have been able to rise so quickly on the sea.

Looking at the shining golden eyes of the four people in front of him, Zoro couldn't help but start to blame himself for a moment.

Immediately, a confident smile suddenly bloomed on his face.

"That's right! It's Pokémon!"

Sauron smiled and said: "If this trip to Coast goes well, I may cooperate with King Laurent to form a mercenary-like security company and work hard to spread it to all parts of the world."

"At that time, we may be separated to carry out some more dangerous missions, so each of you must also start to think about what the Pokémon that suits you should look like in the future."

Yes.

In fact, Zoro knew what Lauren wanted from him from the beginning.

That was when Lauren was still training on Tenjin Island, and Lauren had talked about this matter with many trainers.

It's just that at that time, everyone's goal was the Pokémon League Tournament, and no one cared about Lauren at all.

It wasn't until Lauren successfully became one of the top eight at the Pokémon League Conference, either through resourcefulness or luck...

This made many contestants who were eliminated early think again of Lauren's previous invitation.

It has been commonly said since ancient times:

When you fail, everything is an excuse;

When you succeed, there is a reason for everything.

It was after seeing Lauren's achievements that many trainers came back specifically to discuss setting up a company with Lauren.

However……

At that time, Lauren no longer looked down upon their power.

Because, he has a better choice...

…

…

at the same time.

Sanji, who heard that a beautiful woman was looking for him, turned into a black whirlwind and arrived at the main entrance of the restaurant in the blink of an eye.

"Where is the beauty? Where is the beauty?"

Standing up straight, Sanji's eyes immediately began to scan like searchlights.

But before he could see Reijiu, Reijiu had already discovered him.

"Hi~Sanji~"

A gentle and elegant voice suddenly came from behind Sanji.

Hearing such a beautiful sound, Sanji's head suddenly erupted with white gas like a steam engine.

"Hi~"

Sanji turned around suddenly.

Then……

The scalding steam engine stopped suddenly, as if it had been struck by thunder, and was dying.

Immediately, Sanji's scream, as if he had been stabbed, came from the restaurant:

"Rei...Lei...Reiju!!!?"

A look of disbelief suddenly filled Sanji's face, and he took a step back subconsciously, stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes.

After confirming that this was not an illusion, he immediately became vigilant and asked with serious eyes:

"What are you doing here!?"

"Hey, yeah~"

Reiju put her arms on her chest, stood up slowly, and walked towards Sanji.

"Really, I haven't seen each other for more than ten years. Is this how your brother talks to his sister?"

"elder sister?"

Sanji's face suddenly turned cold, and he looked at Reiju with gloomy eyes.

"I don't remember what contact I have with your Vinsmoke family..."

Even when facing Reiju, who was the best to him at the beginning, Sanji's expression towards her would not change as soon as he thought of the name she carried.

Sanji's cold attitude also made Reiju's face slightly moved.

But soon, she was smiling again.

Reiju, who knew everything that happened to Sanji, could understand Sanji's mood at this moment.

But it was precisely because of this that she felt the need to give the No. 3 jar in her hand to Sanji.

Reiju can feel that everything in the pirate world is changing.

Although the last time the revolutionary army captured Akainu, the sea has been calm and everyone is in peace.

But it was precisely because of this atmosphere that Reiju felt that this was the calm before the storm.

The "culprit" that caused all this is the dimensional merchant from the Chamber of Commerce of All Realms and the Pokémon he brought!

After watching the semi-finals and finals of the Pokémon League Tournament, Reiju already understood...

The world of the future is the world of Pokémon!

The power of Pokémon has had an unstoppable impact on the local forces of the pirate world.

However……

At the same time, Reijiu knew that her stubborn father would never give up on the blood factor that he had studied all his life.

Nowadays, the bloodline factor has become a demonic obstacle in Ga Zhi's heart.

In order to prove that his research is better than Vegapunk, and to complete the research on bloodline factors, he has even begun to risk everything.

Not long ago, Gaji actually said nonsense about wanting to join forces with the Four Emperors of the New World!

Even Reiju knows that this kind of behavior is tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger, and maybe even the Vinsmoke family may be involved.

But Gaji, who was facing a research bottleneck, became more and more concerned about this matter.

This is an extremely bad signal.

But as a reformed person created by Gaji, Reiju would only unconditionally obey Gaji's orders and had no right to put forward her own ideas.

so……

Reiju decided to place her hopes on Sanji.

She didn't want Sanji, who was persecuted by Vinsmoke, to return to the family.

I just hope that when the Vinsmoke family is annexed by the general trend, Sanji can help this family for the sake of his battle uniform.

certainly……

If possible, it would be great if we could get the opportunity to trade with dimensional merchants through Sanji.

Thousands of thoughts flashed through Reijiu's mind.

In reality, she continued to smile.

"Don't say that, Sanji."

"I came to the East China Sea this time, but I came specifically for you!"

"For me?"

Sanji frowned, took out a cigarette and lit it in his mouth to soothe the throbbing in his heart.

"That's right." Reijiu smiled and took out the black jar with [3] engraved on it from behind her back and said:

"I came here specifically to give you the combat uniform of the Vinsmoke family."

"This is a battle suit specially developed by my father, Lord Gaji, for us brothers. By using this battle suit, we will not only gain abilities similar to Devil Fruits, but it will also be able to stimulate the power in our blood."

"After seeing your performance at the Pokémon League Conference, as a sister, I really feel sorry for what happened to you."

"If I could have come a few days earlier, maybe you would be the one to become the top four, not the green algae-headed swordsman."

However.

Upon hearing Reiju's words, Sanji suddenly became angry and shouted loudly:

"What a joke!"

"Do you think that annoying guy can be defeated with just a broken jar?!"

"It seems that after such a long time, Reiju, your brain has been affected by Vinsmoke's blood."

Don't look at the fact that Sanji has always been at odds with Zoro.

But he acknowledged Sauron's strength and ambition from the bottom of his heart.

So after hearing Reijiu's words, his mood fluctuated violently unconsciously.

He would not admit that a broken jar from the Vinsmoke family could defeat Sauron's annoying spirit.

"Go back, Reijiu. I have left Vinsmoke. From that day on, I will never have any interaction with you again!"

After saying that, Sanji suddenly turned around and walked towards the kitchen without looking back.

But at this moment, Reiju, who was rejected, did not panic at all. Instead, she raised the corner of her mouth and said to Sanji's back:

"Wait a minute, Sanji."

"Don't you want to know what the power in this jar is?"

Sanji didn't look back, he just waved his hand dismissively.

"No matter what kind of power I don't need, I can rely on myself to get everything I want!"

"I absolutely! Absolutely! Will not accept anything from the Vinsmoke family!!!"

"Oh? Is that so?"

Reijiu stood up with her legs crossed, her fingers touching her lower lip, and she suddenly showed a very regretful and sad look on her face.

"That's really a pity."

"It seems that I can only bring this invisible (emphasis added) black battle suit back to Beihai intact."

"This is such a shame."

"…………"

"…………"

Suddenly.

Sanji suddenly stopped.

The scene became awkward for a while.
