The bloody hand Mary of the pirate

"This guy...Mary, where did you catch him?"

In the middle of the night, Kuhlman looked at the body of Hawkins that Mary placed on the deck, and then at the countless blood masses floating in the sky, feeling a little dreamy.

How come he suddenly... caught the 249 million Beli Pirate Supernova when he hadn't done anything yet?

"The surveillance methods of the Chambord Navy are too weak." Mary shrugged, "I can meet these people when I'm wandering around. The navy that 'blocked' the coast can't find them. It seems that the power of dispatching troops given to us by Teacher Zefa is essentially

It doesn’t have much effect.”

One of the sarcasm audible in the words gave Kuhlman a headache.

The elite performance of the navy under his command gave him the illusion that the quality of the navy's soldiers was very high. As a result, something like this happened right after he went to sea.

Coleman suddenly felt that the future was dark.

"All in all, now that we have reached the target of 200 million, shouldn't we be happy?"

Mary made a rare joke.

"...That's what you said." Coleman smiled wryly and twisted his temples.

"I'm just a little angry with these navy."

One day, a whole day after being ashore, Mary quietly killed Hawkins and brought him back. There was no movement at all from the Navy.

It seems that this navy is really embarrassing and useless.

"Forget it, I'll leave the rest to you. Remember to teach those marines a lesson. There are only six of us. Even with Enxia here, how easy is it to monitor the entire island?"

Mary curled her lips and threw the unconscious pirates in the blood group on the deck, which made Kuhlman blush.

"I'm going back to rest first...I still have to take a shower first."

She took off her hat, lowered her eyelids, and walked to the cabin.

Coleman frowned, turned around, caught up with Mary in a few steps, and held her shoulders.

"Wait, Mary."

Mary stopped and let go of Kuhlman's hand.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

Listening to Mary's tired voice, Kuhlman asked tentatively:

"There's something wrong with you these days. Did something happen?"

Mary was startled and looked back.

"Is it that obvious?"

"Others may not be able to see it, but I can." Coleman said solemnly.

Mary's eyes became strange.

Coleman looked at Mary's eyes that gradually became sharp and righteous, and suddenly realized something, his old face changed slightly, and he coughed lightly.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't think too much. I also have a wife. I can tell that something is wrong with you because I have lived a long time."

"I see."

Mary nodded solemnly, and her strange gaze made Kuhlman feel his scalp numb.

etc……

"No, Mary, don't change the subject."

Coleman's expression became serious and he asked seriously: "You might as well tell me if you have anything to do. Your current condition is so bad that I... am a little worried."

Mary sighed, withdrew her perverted gaze, and her whole body became depressed.

"Forget it, forget it. This matter... is my own family background, and there's nothing you can do to help."

It’s not that there’s nothing we can do to help, but there are some things that Mary can’t just talk about.

When it comes to matters involving the Celestial Dragons, one may harm others if he is not careful.

Mary walked to the cabin on her own. Just as Kuhlman was about to follow, Mary suddenly turned around and said to him:

"Okay, Coleman, just mind your own business. I can handle my own affairs, and I don't need you to discipline me so much."

"Don't worry too much about me, I'm not much younger than you."

This is true. Compared with several other classmates, Mary's mental age is also thirty years old, and her ability to withstand stress is not bad.

Well, by the way, Coleman is now forty-one years old.

He is Smoker's contemporary.

Kuhlman was noncommittal about Mary's last words, but the resistance in Mary's words could also be heard.

He opened his mouth, but didn't say anything after all. He just shook his head and turned back to deal with the Hawkins Pirates.

Kuhlman also knew that although Mary was young, sometimes she was quite experienced in dealing with things. If she really didn't want to say it, Kuhlman wouldn't force it.

Back in the cabin, Mary did not go back to her room immediately, but walked to the bathroom instead.

After opening the water and taking off her clothes, Mary soaked in the bathtub like a salted fish.

The bathtub gradually filled with hot water, and when the faucet was turned off, Mary remained motionless in the water.

It's really like a bowl of salted fish soup.

So tired, so tired...

Mary looked up at the ceiling with sleepy eyes.

Her life experience is becoming more and more confusing. Although it is not very involved at the moment, it is still a thorn in Mary's heart. It stimulates her from time to time and gives Mary a headache.

Today, I originally wanted to use Hawkins' mouth to pry some information out, but Hawkins died suddenly on the spot after making an ambiguous prediction. Mary didn't even have a chance to ask another question.

Instead, my interest was once again aroused by this prophecy, and I couldn't help but think about it.

Exhausted mentally and physically, really exhausted...

Mary sighed. The incident in Shampoo was no longer a big deal in her mind. With her current strength, it was still very simple to solve the matter in Shampoo.

But now if she really doesn't consider these two things that are on her mind, she will feel uneasy.

Hawkins' prophecy is likely to be related to his own life experience. After all, combined with the prophecy of the Aloof King, judging from the previously obtained information, the predecessor is probably a Celestial Dragon, and the Celestial Dragon corresponds to the King - no problem. But this Celestial Dragon

...I'm afraid it's very special.

The problem lies in where this special point is.

Need more intel... get intel out there...

Mary's consciousness gradually became blurred, and sleepiness gradually filled her heart.

Shampoo Islands...Information...

Area 13...Xia Qi's rip-off bar...

Some vague information in my mind emerged from the depths of my memory.

"I almost forgot about this place, let's go there tomorrow..."

The whispers in the steam were indistinct, and Mary fell into a deep sleep in the hot water.

…

The next day, Mary was woken up by Dusky who had gotten up early to exercise.

The light in the bathroom was on all night, and Dasqi discovered this as soon as she got up early in the morning. She thought someone had forgotten to turn off the light, so she staggered when she opened the door and was immediately hit by the hot steam.

Taking a closer look, Mary was floating in the bathtub and turned white.

Dasqi's face also turned pale.

"Mary, please don't sleep in the bathtub next time. It's very scary..."

On the deck, while comforting the frightened Duschi, Ai Xi said to Mary, who had just put on her clothes and walked onto the deck.

"Ah, I'm sorry..." Mary was also a little embarrassed, "I was so tired last night that I couldn't hold on and fell asleep. It won't happen like this next time."

"Hey, Mary, you look much better."

Coleman walked out of the captain's cabin and nodded to Mary.

Mary also showed a slightly tired smile.

"Ah, indeed. Taking a bath is still comfortable..."

It was like a switch. A lot of worries before taking a bath disappeared as the night passed, as if they melted into the water.

Now Mary feels refreshed and her logic is much clearer.

Maybe it’s not that the logic has become much clearer, but that I understand what things need to be done now and what things cannot be done now. After the priorities are separated, the whole idea becomes smoother.

For example, she now knows there is something she can do.

"Kulman, I'm going to Area 13 today. If there's any news about the supernova, you can just deal with it directly."

Mary gave Kuhlman a casual instruction, then jumped out of the boat in a hurry, and disappeared into the crowd like a loach.

"Hello……"

Coleman was stunned for a moment. Seeing that Mary had disappeared before he could say anything, he could only retract his hand silently.

"Oh... forget it, just return to normal."

The anxious aura that had been lingering on Mary these past few days disappeared, and Kuhlman no longer thought about it so much, and just smiled with relief.

As for what Mary was going to do, he was not interested in caring about so many things.

Speaking of which... is taking a bath really so comfortable? Is it really so magical to make Mary look brand new in one night?

Coleman watched Ai Xi and Dasqi walk to the training room and secretly said in his heart.

Next time if you feel irritable about something... why not give it a try?

…

"Xia Qi, Xia Qi..."

After quickly running to No. 13, Mary looked around for signs of a rip-off bar.

She was still wearing casual clothes from this period today, so she wouldn't be particularly eye-catching. In the process of constantly asking local residents, Mary finally found the location of the rip-off bar.

"This place is obviously on the street, why is it so hard to find it?"

Looking at the sign at the door of the bar, Mary secretly complained.

"No wonder it's so deserted."

After standing at the door of the bar for a while, Mary sorted out some questions she wanted to ask and then walked in.

The next moment, several black shadows flew out of the bar.

Mary immediately turned sideways and saw clearly what was flying out.

...Three or four pirates with bruises and swollen faces?

Mary's eyelids twitched fiercely.

I almost forgot, Xia Qi is also a ruthless person who can be chased by Garp.

If you guessed it right, these pirates most likely saw Xia Qi alone as a woman who was easy to bully and wanted to get credit, and then was severely beaten. There is a similar plot in the original work.

"Oh, I'm sorry, little sister." Xia Qi walked out of the bar and smiled apologetically at Mary.

"I didn't notice a person appear at the door just now. I almost hit you. I'm sorry."

Xia Qi said, bent down and touched Mary's head.

"..."

Mary was not angry at first, but now she is.

"Hey, don't look so sullen. Come in, Aunt Xia will treat you to a cup of tea~"

Xia Qi smiled and took Mary's hand. Mary broke away slightly and followed the trend.

It is said that everything here in Xia Qi is extremely expensive, so it seems good to be able to buy some for free.

When Xia Qi asked Mary to sit in front of the bar and served Mary a cup of green tea, she turned around and closed the bar door.

Mary saw it and although she was confused, she didn't say anything.

Xia Qi didn't say anything, just stood in front of the bar and watched Mary drink tea.

“Good tea.”

Mary said very calmly. Although she had never drank tea at all, she would still say it in such a situation.

"Oh hehe...this is the cheapest green tea on the market."

Xia Qi said with a calm smile, and a trace of embarrassment appeared on Mary's face.

Uh...what the hell is it to dismantle yourself?

"Okay, now that we've finished the tea, it's time to talk about business."

Xia Qi closed the gap and what she said made Mary frown slightly.

The business is...

The next moment, Xia Qi turned around, sat down face to face with Mary, and looked at Mary with a playful look.

"Then, the most dazzling star of the navy nowadays, Mary Vinicius, why do you want to come to my little shop?"

"!"

Mary was slightly startled. She looked at Xia Qi and saw that her tone was no longer joking, and her temperament gradually cooled down.

"...I want to know how you figured out it was me?"

Mary asked.

"You came here specifically to see me, don't you understand? I work in intelligence, how could I not know about one of the two most popular rising stars right now?"

The corners of Xia Qi's mouth raised.

"Two rising stars?" Mary became interested, "Who is the other one?"

"Monkey? d? Luffy, the captain of the pirate group who caused trouble on Judiciary Island some time ago."

Xia Qi said with a smile: "Now it is said in the sea that you two are the Garp and Roger of the next era."

"?"

A big question mark appeared above Mary's head.

"...Forget it, he is no longer my opponent." Mary shook her head. She could hang Luffy up and beat him before in the East China Sea. Now I don't know how much Luffy has improved, but in the original book, the opponent was in Shampoo.

Due to the performance of the Earth Islands, his strength during this period was far inferior to that of most lieutenants.

And Mary and ordinary lieutenant generals can already fight back and forth.

"I think so too."

Xia Qi said thoughtfully.

"One more question - how do you know I came here specifically?"

Mary asked with raised eyebrows.

From the beginning, Xia Qi's tone sounded as if she knew she was here specifically to see her.

"Don't underestimate my basic literacy." Xia Qi smiled helplessly, "Do people who ask for directions all the way ask questions like this?"

"Does anyone outside have an intelligence network about you?"

Mary reacted immediately.

Xia Qi did not answer and smiled slightly. This smile was enough to explain a lot of problems.

"I'm curious as to why you know my name and what I do."

"Are you also involved in the underworld? I feel like you can't tell."

Xia Qi looked Mary up and down and was amazed.

"It's just an introduction."

Mary pressed the brim of her hat. It was difficult to explain this matter, so she could only play it vaguely.

Xia Qi looked at Mary for a moment, lit a cigarette, and said calmly:

"Ten million beli for one piece of information."

The words Xia Qi opened her mouth made Mary freeze immediately.

"How many?"

"Ten million."

"one thousand?"

"Ten thousand."

Mary looked at Xia Qi blankly, unable to say another word for a long time.

"...Don't be joking, Xia Qi..." Mary held her forehead and smiled bitterly, "I am a navy, how can I get so much money?"

Although it is not impossible to exchange for Bailey at the exchange office, Mary will feel her heart bleed if she uses PT to do such a thing.

If it were anyone else, Mary might just overturn the table now. But Xia Qi has been keeping her peace for more than forty years, and from time to time she will also do some business of punishing pirates, which can be regarded as half of the lawful camp.

More importantly, she is also unfathomable. Her ability to escape from Garp is not much different, and the possibility of her being forced to do so is also low.

To sum up, if Mary wanted to get information from her, she could only discuss it carefully with her.

Intelligence personnel are sometimes really important...

"Don't you have any money..."

Xia Qi knocked on the front desk: "There is another way, come and exchange information with me~"

"Huh?" Mary raised her eyebrows.

Xia Qi stood up and hugged Mary like a doll.

"A piece of information, how about coming to my store to be the mascot for a week?"

"...?"

Mary's brain shut down for a moment.

What did she just say?

mascot?

"Otherwise, let's talk about 10 million Baileys..."
