Meiman's Endless Skills

Sea Snake Island, a small island a hundred nautical miles away from Windmill Village, is said to have been named Sea Snake Island by fishermen who had seen a super sea snake over meters in size.

However, this seems to have become a legend, and the sea snake has not appeared for decades.

Only the fishermen on the nearby islands still firmly believe that the sea snake still exists, and they no longer set foot in this sea area.

Over time, this place has become a trading place for some dark underground forces.

Sayers is an experienced intelligence dealer who occasionally engages in shady activities in private and has never failed.

At this time, he was waiting in a hidden port on Sea Snake Island. He seldom smoked, but the seven or eight cigarette butts on the ground betrayed his anxiety.

‘Isn’t this guy Kerry going to screw up? ’

Seeing that nothing he wanted to see appeared on the sea, Searles had a vague premonition in his heart.

He firmly believed in his intuition. Over the years, he was able to become a well-known dark figure in the Kingdom of Goa with the strength of an ordinary person because of this innate intuition.

After checking the time on his mechanical watch, he decided to wait another ten minutes. If that guy Kerry didn't show up again, he would leave Sea Serpent Island immediately.

Some time ago, by chance, Searles accidentally heard an important news from a low-level bandit——in the Windmill Village not far away, there was a little ghost as weird as rubber.

The keen Sellers immediately realized that this might be a major opportunity.

As an information dealer, he knows some things that ordinary people don't know, including the devil fruit that can make people have all kinds of incredible powers.

Ever since he learned of the existence of devil fruits, he has been looking for them, but he has not been able to find devil fruits from other places except in the auction houses of some powerful forces.

So, he began to make two-handed preparations, while using his status advantage to find Devil Fruits, while working hard to make money, hoping that one day he would be able to buy one if he couldn't find one.

However, after spending ten years, he only accumulated less than million Pele.

For ordinary people, this may already be a huge amount of wealth, but Sells knows that this is not enough to buy a better devil fruit.

Recently, at an upcoming auction, he took a fancy to a devil fruit that was very suitable for him. He estimated that it would take about 25 million Baileys to get it.

He didn't want to miss this opportunity, so he needed to get more than 50 million beli before the auction.

He used many methods, but apart from the way that required a huge cost, the money could not be obtained through other normal ways.

Just when he was worried about this matter, the rubber man mentioned by the bandit made him immediately think that there was a mysterious big man in Beihai who had been acquiring Devil Fruits and Devil Fruit ability users during the winter vacation.

Rubber Man, if there are no accidents, should have eaten the rubber fruit from the Superman Devil Fruit.

If a Devil Fruit of this level had not been eaten, it would at least be able to sell for a sky-high price of more than million Baileys.

As for the ability user who eats this fruit, the value is much lower. After Sellers asked Beihai, it turned out that the other party only offered 12 million Berries at most.

but.

This also met Sellers' psychological expectations. After further investigation, Sellers discovered that the bandit was just a miscellaneous fish under Higuma, and Higuma was just a bandit with a bounty of 800 million beli. Boss, you don’t need to worry about offending.

As for the rubber boy in Windmill Village, he was a little troublesome. First of all, Windmill Village is not a simple village, and it seems to have something to do with the famous naval hero Garp.

Searles did not investigate the identity of Luffy as Garp's grandson, otherwise he would not have hit Luffy with his idea.

He easily found the members of the red-haired pirates who have never concealed their identities. Although he has never been to the great route, as a well-informed information dealer, Searles still knows something about the new four emperors pirates. Information about the Red Hair Pirates.

He knows the strength of the red-haired pirates, and he must not provoke them easily.

Especially when he saw the close relationship between Luffy and the red-haired pirates, Sails couldn't help but feel a headache.

but.

In the end, he still didn't resist the temptation of the devil fruit, and he didn't intend to let go of this opportunity.

Of course, he was smart and cautious. After discovering the ambition in the eyes of a bandit named Kerry under Higuma, Sayers thought he could take advantage of it, so that even if something went wrong in the end, he could get out in time.

then.

Sayles hid behind the scenes, helped Kerry plan the operation, provided him with some support in the operation, including a new sailboat from the North Sea, and promised Kerry a reward of up to 40 million beli.

As for whether this remuneration will be honored in the end, anyone who has a deep understanding of Sellers will know that it is impossible.

Poor Kerry, he doesn't know this yet, he is being pursued by the redhead, and the crisis is getting closer, but he is still reluctant to give up this huge fortune that is about to be acquired.

"Damn! Why are you forcing me?"

Sea Snake Island was already far away, at most ten nautical miles away, the bandit Kerry was about to go crazy.

He knew that if he still couldn't get rid of the red hair at the back, he would still be killed even if he finally arrived at Sea Serpent Island.

At the same time, Sils on the island finally found Kerry through the telescope.

But he was not in the slightest happy mood, because he also found the red hair who came out of the sky and was not easy to mess with at first glance.

"Damn it!"

Sayers is far more decisive than Kerry the Bandit, and he also knows better than Kerry the horror of a Pirate with red hair.

Therefore, he chose to give up without hesitation. The power of the devil fruit is certainly desirable, but for him, his life is always the first, only alive, everything is possible.

At this time, Kerry, who was highly nervous, did not notice that a new-style sailboat was speeding away from Sea Serpent Island.

It was as if a boulder was pressing on his chest, which almost made him breathless. Looking at the Sea Snake Island that was getting closer and closer, the last sliver of reason that was not overwhelmed by greed made him realize that he had reached the time when he had to make a choice .

Forty million Baileys!

This is definitely a wealth that he will hardly obtain in his lifetime if he continues to be a bandit.

In the end, with about seven nautical miles left to the Sea Snake Island, he made a difficult choice. Like Sayles, he chose life.

Following the cunning Higuma all year round, he is naturally not a fool and understands that no matter how great the wealth is, only living is valuable.

It may be human nature to survive.

Before all these actions started, in addition to Searles' planning, Kerry also prepared a way out for himself. As a qualified bandit, he certainly would not trust Searles' words.

even.

He has already considered that if Searles does not abide by the agreement, he will use this back route to threaten the other party.

"Little ghost, you are lucky this time, and I hope you will continue to be lucky in the future."

Cree said to Luffy with a grin, and then quickly threw Luffy into a fishing net. The other end of the fishing net was a heavy anchor tied to the outside of the boat.

"goodbye!"

Before Luffy understood what happened, Kerry slashed down with a knife, and the anchor fell into the sea, and Luffy was also caught by the huge force of the anchor, followed by falling into the water.

After that, Kerry sneered and looked back at Hongfa. He was betting on what choice Hongfa would make in such a situation, whether to rescue the kid before he drowned, or to continue chasing and killing him.

In his plan, it is no surprise that the red-haired man will choose to save Luffy so that he can get enough time to escape.

really.

As he expected, after seeing Luffy being thrown into the sea, the red-haired man who arrived did not hesitate and jumped directly into the sea to save people.

A smug sneer flashed across the corner of his mouth, and at the same time, Kerry breathed a sigh of relief and stopped caring about the rest of the matter. He turned around and prepared to escape with all his strength.

He knew that with this method, even if the red hair could be held back, it wouldn't last long.

just.

When Kerry turned his head, he saw a scene that made him despair.

"What is this?!"

This was his last thought, and he and his new sailboat were instantly swallowed by a horrible bloody mouth.

The nearly four-meter-long new sailboat, although most of the hull is made of steel, is no different from a crispy biscuit in front of this bloody mouth.

With a surge of sea water, a huge sea snake can be seen disappearing in the water.

"Hey! Yumi, can you hurry up, there seems to be an accident ahead."

Four nautical miles away from the red hair, King Kong was startled when he saw the monster that ate the bandit and the sailboat with a glimpse, and hurriedly urged behind him.

At this time, in the sea behind him, a huge figure of nearly three meters was pushing the boat forward.

Back to half an hour ago, just when King Kong saw that the bandit and the red-haired man were about to completely disappear from his sight, he luckily met the mermaid Yumi who was salvaging sunken treasures in the sea but found nothing, and was about to leave. .

To be honest, King Kong couldn't help being surprised when he was sure that he met a mermaid.

Although he knew that the evil dragon pirate group composed of murlocs would come to Tokai Nami's hometown in the future and start their own brutal rule, but murlocs have always been very rare in the four seas.

Not to mention, it is a mermaid that is even rarer than a fish-man.

Of course, although Yumi is a female mermaid, it has nothing to do with the legendary mermaid, at least not with the word beauty.

Yumi doesn't have the slender figure of a mermaid, she only has muscles that would make most men feel ashamed.

In other words, she is not generally strong.

Coupled with her height of nearly three meters, her appearance has been lowered by more than one notch. When seeing her for the first time, anyone who is a normal person will only think that she is a man.

King Kong knew nothing about Yumi's identity and origins. It was just that Yumi temporarily worked for him after he paid a deposit of 30,000 beli that he carried with him and promised a remuneration of 500,000.

I have to say that as expected of a nation in the sea, Yumi's speed in the water is even faster than the new sailboat driven by the bandit. new sailboat.

Hearing King Kong's urging, Yumi not only did not speed up, but stopped.

"Hey! You guys don't think I didn't see it, do you? That thing is a Sea King type!"

Yumi's not-so-beautiful face was filled with solemnity.

King Kong waved his hand: "Don't worry, you are a mermaid. You are naturally close to the sea and fish. As long as you have never eaten fish and don't take the initiative to provoke you, sea kings will not attack you. As for me, you don't have to worry. I have way to protect yourself.”

Yumi stared immediately after hearing this: "Who is worried about you, I'm just worried that if you are eaten by sea kings, who will give me the rest of the money?"

King Kong was immediately extremely embarrassed, but the situation was urgent and he had no time to talk nonsense. He said very decisively: "One million, the reward will be increased to one million!"

Yumi, who was so poor that she was about to eat dirt, her eyes lit up.

……

A minute later, after a quick negotiation between the two, Yumi finally failed to block King Kong's money offensive.

After another three minutes, Yumi accelerated with all her strength and sent King Kong two hundred meters away from where Luffy fell into the sea.

"Hey! You guys haven't paid me the three million reward you promised me. Don't die next time."

After finishing the sentence, feeling the strong Neptune-like aura nearby, Yumi didn't stay any longer, and turned her head to swim away.

King Kong, who stayed on the boat, was very worried. He also knew that the sea kings were probably still nearby, and at this time, the red hair should soon fish Luffy out of the sea.

"Don't let anything happen to you, Luffy."

Whoa!

After a while, a figure suddenly appeared on the sea less than a hundred meters away from him, it was red-haired Shanks.

"Shanks!"

King Kong yelled, and he noticed that Luffy, who had passed out, was being lifted out of the sea by the red hair to expose his head.

The red hair also noticed him immediately, and immediately swam towards him.

King Kong was about to row the boat a little further when he suddenly saw a huge black shadow emerging from the sea behind Red Hair.

"careful!"

A bloody mouth flew out, and it was about to swallow Hongfa and Luffy in an instant.

The red hair is worthy of being the King of Pirates. Even though he used physical skills to chase the pirates for hundreds of nautical miles before, he exhausted a lot of physical strength. At this time, facing the surprise attack of the Sea Kings, he was still able to react quickly and dodge the Sea Kings in an instant. attack.

Just as he was about to use his domineering look to fight back, an almost identical bloody mouth popped out again on the surface of the sea on the other side.

Under such circumstances, he was caught off guard for a moment.

boom! boom! boom!

Continuous gunshots rang out, but it was King Kong who fired without hesitation at the moment when the second sea king appeared.

Although he knew that the bullets of ordinary firearms were nothing more than scratches for monsters like Neptunes, but he still wanted to buy as much as possible for the red hair for even a second.

At the juncture of life and death, King Kong was terribly calm. From the time he saw the second sea king appearing to when he reacted and drew his gun to shoot, there was never more than 001 seconds in between!
