Chapter 3 The Straw Hat debuts, the style of painting changes(1/2)
Blue sky, white clouds
A merchant ship drifts with the wind on the sea, with neither a goal nor a direction.
The entire ship was empty, not even a sailor, as if it was the legendary "ghost ship". Until:
Dong,
A wooden barrel that was also drifting with the flow hit the side of the merchant ship, and Yingying asked to hear a sentence from the wooden barrel:
"Hey? I hit the ship-"
"Very good!"
Bang!
The wooden barrel was smashed open by fists, and a figure with a straw hat stretched out his upper body excitedly from inside.
"It's so comfortable to sleep~~"
"So,"
call out--
The boy's arms suddenly stretched out, grabbed it directly on the side of the boat like a rubber band, and then pulled it hard!
Bang!
The whole person flew onto the merchant ship, and the boy in the straw hat burst into laughter.
"It's so dangerous, I thought I would be swept into the seabed by a vortex~~"
"My trip to One Piece is almost......"
Squeak,
The door on the deck of the merchant ship opened, and Roman walked out, looking at the "invader" in front of him with cold eyes.
It was a boy with short black hair, looking a little messy, and there was a scar under his left eye.
Wearing a small red vest, blue half-legged jeans, and straw sandals. Of course, the most eye-catching thing is wearing a straw hat on his head and a confident smile on his face.
This dress up?!
Roman's eyes flashed for a moment, but he soon returned to calm.
Monkey D. Luffy.
The son of destiny in this world, the rubber fruit ability, talks about "I am the man who wants to become One Piece":
fool!
What is a pirate?
It is a scam among scams, a bad party among the evil party...
"Hi, hello--"
Seeing Roman walked out, the young man in the straw hat smiled and waved his hand to signal.
“100,000 Bailey.”
???
In an instant, the other person's smile froze on his face, as if a row of black question marks appeared over the straw hat.
“Flights,”
Roman continued to speak calmly.
"100,000 Bailey, three meals a day, accommodation is provided, and extra money is added for more than half a month."
“Ah…ah…this…”
The straw hat boy's whole face collapsed instantly. He felt a long time before he could put a word on it.
“I don’t have money…”
"No money?"
Roman glanced at the boy with a 'poverty' smell all over his body, a straw hat, a vest, a five-point jeans, and a pair of slippers...
I didn't even have a pocket on my body, and I just wrote the "poor and white" on my face.
"Sorry, - please go back wherever you come from."
The protagonist, the most annoying...
"No, brother~~"
The straw hat boy was so shocked that his chin was dragged to his chest (physical sense), "I can't swim, and the wooden barrel was just broken by me..."
··········Tell me that this is the future One Piece?!
"Sorry, this is my boat."
"You must pay the ship fee when taking a boat. You won't understand this principle, right?"
"I... can pay back the money when I work, I can eat very well... No, I'm very diligent..."
The straw hat boy suddenly had his fists and palms intersected, with an expression of "thinking a good idea".
"By the way, come and be my partner!"
"As long as you become a partner, you don't have to pay the boat fee~~~Hahaha, I'm so smart~~"
?????
This time it was Roman's turn to be full of black questions. You're going to make a fortune, right? Yes!
"I refuse!"
Facing Roman's answer without hesitation, the straw hat boy opposite him looked shocked to the point of "How is it possible", "Wait a minute, will you stop thinking about it?"
"By the way, my name is Luffy."
"It's a man who wants to become One Piece!"
Facing the smiling boy with straw hat... No, Luffy Roman lowered his head and sneered.
"Pirate?"
"That's great."
Crazy-
He opened his arms, and pieces of "paper" flew out of his palms out of thin air, and then quickly turned into:
A sailor's knife and a shield!
"Since it's a pirate, then 'pay the bill' in the way of pirates."
Roman squinted his eyes and looked at the boy named Luffy opposite him, with a shield in front and a long sword hidden behind him!
"Kill me, this ship is-"
"Wow! So cool~~~"
However, facing Roman who was posing, Luffy just ran over carelessly, watched the paper knife and paper shield in his hand, and even touched it up and down.
Bang!
"Are you underestimating me?"
A cold murderous aura spread out from Roman. Just now, he smashed the opponent with a shield and even fell aside the opponent's precious straw hat.
"Wow, it hurts~~~"
"Why do I feel pain-"
"Hey hey? Hey hey? He actually bleed... How did you do it?"
Facing Luffy, who was sitting on the ground with blood on his face but was only confused about why he was injured, Roman stepped forward.
"I have no reason to explain your means to you, then-"
brush,
The snow-white sailor knife pointed at the other party's face, and Roman looked at the other party with cold eyes.
"stand up!"
"By defeat me, this ship is yours."
"If you lose, you're ready to go to the springboard."
Facing the paper knife that was so close to you and the ruthless Roman, the boy on the floor just sat casually on the deck and looked at the corner of the other person's eyes seriously.
"I won't fight you."
"Then are you going to go into the sea to feed the fish?"
"I'm not going to die here, either."
"Waiting for you to defeat me-"
To be continued...
