Chapter 245 Swan Island

Swan Island.

It got its name because it looks like a swan when viewed from the air.

Pike walked in front with twenty adult men, responsible for carrying the goods.

The four little kids, Xia He, baby-5, Buffalo, and Luo, also followed behind the team.

In fact, they didn’t have to come along, they just had to stay on the deck and guard the boat, but children are very curious, and after arriving at a new place, how could they not help but come down and look around?
Of course, although he is not a child, Xia He, who has only been to four or five islands in total since traveling to the world of pirates, naturally wants to travel more and broaden his horizons.

Four short guys, each less than 1.6 meters tall, strolled around the town on Swan Island in two steps at a time with the team.

Not long after.

While Pique was sending people to carry the drinks, Buffalo, who had been craving for takoyaki for a long time, ran to a roadside stall selling takoyaki and took out all the Baileys in his pocket: “Make as many as this money can buy for me.”

“Ah good.”

The vendor took the scattered banknotes and coins, and then handed five skewers of takoyaki that had already been grilled to Buffalo.

Buffalo reached out to take it, then blinked.

“Only five?”

“Yes, little friend, you just gave me 4,700 Baileys. This string costs 800 Baileys, so you can only buy five strings. Here, I’ll give you the remaining 700 Baileys.” After the stall owner said this, he handed the Baileys back to Buffalo with a smile.

Buffalo looked down at the coin in his hand.

He looked up at the stall owner’s smiling face again.

After thinking about it, he was about to raise his hand to punch the other party, but Xia He, who was standing behind him, hit him on the back of the head with a punch.

“What?” Buffalo turned around with dissatisfaction.

However, after seeing clearly that the person who punched him was Xia He, he immediately swallowed back the curse that was about to come out of his throat.

“What are you doing? I was just about to ask you what you were going to do.” Xia He grabbed Buffalo’s ear and dragged him into an alley.

“Hey, were you planning to attack the stall owner just now?” Xia He asked.

“Uh…” Buffalo held the takoyaki in one hand and rubbed his ears with the other hand. After thinking for a while, he replied, “I don’t have any…”

“Oh, you have nothing, you already clenched your fist just now.”

Xia He sneered.

He even felt a hint of murderous intent from Buffalo just now.

I couldn’t help but change my opinion of this child a little bit.

Want to kill someone for a few small skewers of takoyaki…

Is this the value of the pirate world?
Human life is really not even as valuable as grass.

“Don’t attack ordinary civilians in the future, unless they provoke you first, understand?” Xia Hechong warned him.

“He just provoked me.” Buffalo retorted subconsciously.

“Why did he provoke you?”

“He didn’t give me all the takoyaki on the grill, even though I used to buy things and no matter how much I paid, he would give me all the things at once.”

Xia He: “.”

“Then let me ask you, when you were shopping… did Doflamingo, Diamante, or Pieck go with you?”

“Hmm? Hmm…” Buffalo thought about it carefully, then nodded, “It seems so.”

That’s it!
People are simply scared by your identity as pirates, okay!

Just imagine, if a group of pirates with a bounty of over 10 million go to a civilian’s stall to buy things, which civilian would dare to accept the money?

“Forget it…” Xia He didn’t want to explain anything more. After rubbing his temple, he simply said to the fat boy: “If you dare to attack others for no reason again in the future, if you punch them, I will stab you. Do you understand?”

“Ah?” Buffalo showed a look of horror when he heard this.

“Ah what? I was asking if you knew.”

“I know…I know.”

Buffalo became dejected, but only for about ten seconds. After taking a bite of the takoyaki in his hand, he immediately became energetic again.

“Wow, it’s delicious! So, Xia He, can I capture the vendor who sells this and bring him back to the boat so that he can make it for me every day?”

“cannot!”

boom!
He conjured up a wooden stick out of thin air, swung it forward fiercely, and sent Buffalo flying.

Xia He roared in frustration.

Such a perverted kid…

It seems that I need to correct his thinking.

……

at the same time.

street.

A couple who had just bought some takoyaki happened to notice what was happening in the alley.

Especially after seeing Xia He transform a wooden stick out of thin air, the female raised her eyebrows and whispered to the young man next to her: “There is a devil fruit user.”

“The little devil you mean?”

“Well, it looks like it was brought by the Don Quixote family.”

“So…should we start with them?”

“You can follow for now and look for the right opportunity.”

Yes, that’s right.

These two people were navy soldiers disguised as civilians in the town.

The woman’s name is Steele Kelly, 205 years old, major of the th branch.

The woman’s name is Boke, she is 205 years old and a second lieutenant in the th branch.

The two of them are in a superior-subordinate relationship. Today, they received orders from their superiors and came to Swan Island to investigate the missing child case.

Who would have thought that by coincidence, they would actually run into the Don Quixote Pirates who came to purchase supplies…

So after much consideration, Kelly decided to temporarily shift the focus of the investigation to Pike and his team.

After all, the naval warships were attacked some time ago, and several branches in Beihai attached great importance to this matter.

“It looks like they’re leaving,” Bock said.

“Let’s go, follow them, don’t let them find out, if anything goes wrong, leave quickly.”

“it is good.”

After stuffing the remaining takoyaki into their mouths, the two of them walked towards the end of the alley hand in hand, pretending to be very intimate.

……

the other side.

After teaching Buffalo a lesson, Xia He took him to meet up with Luo and baby-5 who were strolling on the roadside.

Baby-5 was lying in front of a stall, staring at the bracelets made of colorful stones, her eyes shining.

Seeing this, Luo simply took out two pieces of paper and pen from his pocket and handed them to the vendor, “Pick two skewers for yourself.”

He stayed in the family for a year and earned some money during the operation, but he hardly spent it.

“Really?” Baby-5 excitedly reached out to pick out two necklaces and put them on her hands.

next second.

“Hey, girl, are you alone? Brother will buy you a drink.”

Several men with hair even more colorful than the bracelet on baby-5’s hand came over and whistled at her.
