The Paper Fruit Among the Pirates

  Chapter 5 Hunter Sauron joins forces

   "Hahaha, the people in that store are really interesting."

  There is no malice. The appearance of those guests running away in embarrassment just now is simply ‘fun’ to Luffy.

  "···Something is wrong····"

  Keby doesn't have Luffy's mentality of ‘strong man’. He looked around anxiously and quickly analyzed the situation.

   "People are afraid to understand Sauron's name, why they heard of Colonel Monka—"

   "It's very simple,"

  Roman on the other side directly said the answer.

  "This shows that the colonel at the naval base makes people feel more fearful than that ‘pirate hunter’."

  "No...Impossible..."

hehe,

   Facing Kerby, who was carrying the "Navy Dream", Roman just lifted his chin not far away.

  "Is it right? You can see it with your own eyes, don’t you know?"

  At the end of the road, is a magnificent naval base. Towering walls, densely packed forts, and flying naval flags...

  All give people a feeling of ‘strong and powerful’! only:

   "It's worthy of being a military powerhouse, let alone buildings around it, there are no pedestrians."

  Roman sighed casually, not knowing whether it was the truth or the irony. As the three of them came to the closed gate of the base:

   "Go ahead, Kerby."

  Luffy pressed his straw hat and pointed to the naval base in front of him.

"me······"

   "Let me see what kind of person Sauron is~~"

  Regardless of the entangled Kerby, Luffy leaned on the wall and looked towards the center of the vast square of the naval base.

   "Hey? Is that guy—"

  In the center of Navy Plaza, a person is tied to a cross-shaped wooden frame!

It was a man with a dark green turban, short green hair exposed under the turban, three drop-shaped gold earrings on his left ear, a white T-shirt on his upper body, a green belly curled on his waist, and dark green trousers. Black boots.

  Of course, the most striking thing is his eyes!

   Sharp as a knife, wild as a beast! Just looking at it will give birth to the illusion of being'torn apart'!

   is very strong.

  Roman, who made a ‘ladder’ under his feet with paper, squinted his eyes. The opponent’s strength is about the same as the ‘former’ captain who sunk into the sea with the ‘Creeping the Wave’!

  However, Sauron in this period probably hasn’t mastered "Slashing Iron"...

  Physical quality should be Sauron's advantage, but in terms of swordsmanship, he is not as good as the captain who can burst out the ability to'cut iron'.

  The anime that I watched many years ago, plus the travel for many years. To be honest, in addition to the main "Four Emperors" and "Seven Wuhai" and the protagonist group, Roman's memory of One Piece has long been blurred.

   "Hey, you guys."

  The man who was tied to the stake raised his head, even though he was deeply jailed, he was still alive.

   "Come here and help me untie the rope."

   "I will repay you, — I can give you all the money for catching wanted pirates in the future..."

"interesting,"

  Roman held his hands and tilted his head to look at Luffy who was lying on the wall.

   "Luffy, what do you think?"

  "The rope looks easy to break free..."

   "Hey, Luffy, your focus is wrong!" Kerby stopped anxiously, for fear that the two ‘lawless’ guys next to him would release the ‘criminal’ in the square with a tap of their heads.

   "If you let him go, the people in this town, you and I will be killed—"

   "No, he can't kill me."

  Luffy, who has been acting silly, smiled confidently, "I am also very strong."

  ···········

Snapped,

Just as the three of them were'watching a play', a ladder stood beside them, and then a little girl glared at the three of them,'warning' them not to say anything, and swiftly climbed over the wall. Jump into the naval base.

  "Brother, I made you rice balls..."

   "You are looking for death, kid, get out!"

  "This is the first time I did it..."

  "Don’t understand? I told you to get out—"

  ———

  "Tsk tusk, it’s wrong to bully children, Roronoa Sauron."

  Following a frivolous voice, a guy who only had to write ‘Second Generation Zu’ on his face walked out of the naval base with duck steps, followed by two naval soldiers behind him.

   "Be careful, I tell my dad."

   "Cut, I will only rely on my father's waste..."

  "What is this, the rice ball for the navy?" The second generation ancestor grabbed the little girl's rice ball and ate a bite, then:

  "Bah, bah, what's in the rice ball? Sugar? What kind of cooking..."

   "Be careful, I tell my dad!"

  After throwing the rice ball on the ground and stomping on it, Nishizu ordered the little girl to be thrown out. Then he left angrily. He didn't even comment on the three "watchers" on the fence, making Roman secretly wonder if this guy is also an interstellar player...

  Remember that this guy seemed to change his evil and return to righteousness later? And also brought a blindfold.

  I'm afraid it's not really blind...

   "Thank you, big brother,"

   "It's okay," Roman waved his hand and patted the little girl who was thrown out of the wall and was caught by him. "Go home, it's dangerous here."

  Navy base is dangerous...

Kerby next to    hesitates to speak but stops, stops moving, retreats in a dilemma, difficult...

  ———

  "Hey, you guy is still there...Are you not afraid that the second generation ancestor will tell his dad?"

  At the same time, Luffy had jumped into the naval base and stood in front of the man tied to the stake.

   "Not afraid."

  For Luffy, what Colonel Monka, what naval base...Can you eat it—

   "I am looking for a companion who will go out to sea with me as a pirate."

  Pirate? What a perverted guy...

  "Hey, help pick up that rice ball—"

  "Do you want to eat this, it's all mud..."

   Facing Luffy’s disgust, the man named Sauron just opened his mouth.

   "It's so noisy!"

  "Give it to me—"

   Click, click, swallow

   "Bring me a word to that little girl," the man in the turban lowered his head, "the rice ball is delicious, thank you."

  ————

   "Hey, your captain is gone."

  It's still the square, and the man tied to the stake.

   But this time, Roman stood in front of him instead.

   "What are you doing here, Pirate!"

   "Well, I was thinking."

  Roman touched his smooth chin thoughtfully with one hand.

   "How many days have you **** here?"

   "Nine days, what's wrong—"

"you,"

  Roman's eyes fell on Sauron's lower third, making the opponent uncomfortable.

  "Now I don’t know that my pants are full of **** and urine..."

  ? ? ?

   "I killed you! I killed you!"

   "Don't get excited, don't get excited.-If you can't hold back, don't blame me."

  Roman waved his hand,

   "Okay, let's talk about business."

   "I think you have an appetite for Luffy, so he will definitely come back to take you on the boat in a while, then:"

  Roman waved his hand and directly made a paper ‘chair’ on the spot and sat down.

   "I'll just wait here."

  ———

"Hello."

  Sure enough, it didn't take long for Luffy to return, causing Sauron who was tied to the stake to blink.

   "If you want to persuade me to be a pirate—" "I will help you untie the rope, and you will be my companion."

  "Listen to people..."

   "I don't care, I have decided to let you be my partner."

   "Don't make your own claim!"

   "By the way, I heard that you are a very good swordsman. Where's the sword?"

  Luffy changed the subject for a second, making Sauron who was **** couldn't react.

   "I was taken away, it was second only to my life—"

"very good,"

  Luffy fisted and fisted, as if he had a good idea again.

   "I'll get your knife, and you will be my partner!"

   "You...you are too mean!"

  Unfortunately, Luffy left a sentence, ‘Don’t walk around here, I’ll go and return’, and he ran to the naval base in a hurry.

  "This...Is this guy an idiot..."

   "Hahahahaha~~"

  While watching the show, Roman stood up with a smile and waved his hands. The ‘chair’ on the ground broke down into pieces of paper and fell into his hands, and then turned into a sailor’s knife.

   "How about, have you seen the trouble of that guy?"

  Roman took the paper knife in his hand and said, "Don't think about it, the guys Luffy admired, in the end, the only way to go on board the ship is obediently."

   "Are you traffickers?"

   "Also, what is so proud of—"

   Facing the angry Sauron, Roman just shrugged his shoulders holding back a smile.

   "No, I'm just happy to see someone ending up like me~~~"

   "That's it."
