Chapter 12

"hu hu hu hu "

After racing all the way, the three stopped on the street in the town.

"Escape, escape..."

Faced with Nami who was gasped for breath, Roman started to prepare a fitness plan for the other party in earnest while speaking calmly.

"Even as our Pirates Navigator, you don’t need to fight, but your physical strength is too bad."

"Who is your Navigator——"

Huh? !

Faced with Roman's eyes that suddenly became cold, Nami, who was crying in his heart, had to close his eyes nodded.

"Yes, yes, I blamed me for dragging you down..."

But:

This guy named Roman is so strong!

Facing the notorious Buggy Pirates not only come and go, but also quite invincible. Moreover, one hand is holding him, the other is carrying the big iron cage and the idiot'Captain' inside, running all the way, without blushing or breathing.

Maybe, lie to this guy to deal with...

"Wow, look at this dog is motionless."

I broke away from the rope while escaping As soon as Luffy got out of danger, he started playing tricks again. ——This time, the object of his moles was a dog on the side of the road: just an ordinary pastoral dog, motionless squatting in front of a small shop.

"Is this dog dead? It's not a statue"

"Rubber·····Two Finger Zen!"

From the cage Stretched his arms in the middle, and put his index finger and ring finger on the dog's eyeballs. Then:

ka-cha,

"Ahhhh, it hurts!"

Ah this...

Look With one person and one dog playing in a frenzy across the cage, Roman once again began to reflect on whether he had fed Luffy too much.

"What an idiot!"

Nami next to him was also speechless about the'Human Dog War'.

"However, the more I think about it, the more I feel that I am just an idiot."

Speaking of her patted clothes, she took out a key and threw it to the cage.

"Take advantage of your fight, I stole the key." Talking about curl one's lip of the orange-haired girl upset, "Really, no treasure or nautical chart was stolen... ·"

"haha, very good."

Luffy, who has been'hanging up' in the cage, was elated, "this cage has hurt me so badly"

"hmph, you are not to blame for being stupid."

Roman's speechless snorted, but for the sake of the other party's'recruitment' to the Navigator...

Snatch up— —

gu lu !

"Ahhhh, dead dog, give me the key!"

?

"Luffy, tell me honestly, what you eat is definitely Gomu-Gomu No Mi, isn’t it the fruit of lowering wisdom!?"

Not only did you lower your IQ, but also Can lower the IQ of surrounding creatures...

Roman sighed rubbing his temples.

"Very well, let's eat dog meat and fire—"

"Hey!"

"You guys, don't bully Xiuxiu"

An old man wearing leather armor, protective gear, long spear on his back, and glasses ran over angrily.

———————

"So, are you the mayor of this town?"

"This dog is called Xiuxiu? "

"Then why is it squatting here" Faced with the questions of the Romans, the old man sighed.

"This shop," Old Town Head pointed to the small shop behind him, "An old friend of mine opened it with Xiuxiu."

"To them In terms of this, this store is their most precious memory..."

"But, Pirate is here." Nami chased suspiciously, "Everyone in town ran out to take refuge. Huh? Why let this dog watch the house here, your friend is not afraid of it being killed by Pirate—"

"He is dead."

Old Town Head sighed again ,

"A few months ago, my old friend got sick and went to the hospital, and..."

"So this dog stayed here and waited for him The owner is back?" Faced with Nami's emotion, Old Town Head laughed.

"No, Xiuxiu is a smart dog. It must know that its owner can no longer come back."

"It's just that, this shop is its most precious The memory of him, that’s why it stayed here all the time.” As he said, the mayor was holding his forehead, and there was a tremor in his voice.

"What a stupid dog!"

"Hey, you are almost uncle?"

I leaned on the door of the shop next to him, holding his hands Roman lifting eyelids, "You can't let go of this small town when you come to check this time?"

"After all, you are smarter than this dog and can't go there"

p>

"hehe,"

Faced with Roman's'sarcasm', Old Town Head shook the head with a smile.

"Yes, this town is us—a group of refugees whose homes were destroyed by Pirate built up from the barren a little bit! This place carries our efforts, sweat, joys and sorrows! So, so... ···"

As he took off his glasses and put them on again, there was only firmness left in his eyes.

"So, I'm old! I can't run anymore."

"If must die, I also hope to die in my own homeland..."

··········

"Roman,"

Luffy in the cage presses Straw Hat, which is contrary to the normal hehe haha .

"Let's go back."

When he lifted his head, there was only seriousness in his eyes! It's like changing someone.

"I'm going to punch that red nose flying!"

What a wayward guy...

"As you wish,"

Roman stood up and moved his muscles and bones a bit.

"Captain."

"hey hey hey, you three youngsters should go for refuge" Looking at the three who are going to'find someone for filming' People...no, two people, Old Town Head hurriedly persuades.

"And one of you is locked in a cage—"

Pop,

The half-crouched Roman holds the iron pillars of the cage thick with thumbs in both hands , And then:

puci ,

For an instant, Roman's arms were knotted with blue veins, and his muscles bulged up. The original loose sleeves were bursting apart! The two arm muscles full of muscular beauty rolled and snapped to the side.

ka ka ka ——

In the harsh metal sound, the sturdy steel cage forcibly bends and deforms to the sides in Roman's hands! In the end, a large hole that was enough for a man to drill was revealed.

"It's done."

"Thanks, Roman!"

Luffy, who is out of trouble, moves his shoulders, exhilarating to be eager to have a try.

"Let's go and beat that red nose with his men!"

"Yes."

Boom,

The Old Town Head wearing leather armor has been scared to sit on the ground! Obviously he is just a handsome and sunny boy who has the inhuman power of breaking steel...

So awesome!

On the other side, Nami once again has a deeper understanding of the boy named'Roman'. Such power is no longer inferior to those guys, right?

If, if this person wearing a Straw Hat also has such power. Trick them to their hometown, maybe you can...

However, looking at the two unlucky'Pirate' who are going back to find Buggy Pirates, Nami's eyes flashed.

The two Pirates who are preparing for the "Knights Fighting Righteousness" are really stupid!

Can’t stand it...

"Okay!"

The Old Town Head next to it also feels like a long-lost'blood boiled', "As Mayor, if I don’t protect the town, who will protect it? I will go too—"

Boom,

Unfortunately, Luffy held his back before his bold words were spoken. of the head hit the door of the shop next to it.

His eyes rolled white, and he fainted on the spot.

"Luffy, what are you doing?!"

Before the fight started, the teammates sacrificed to the sky, and the girl named Nami instantly became angry! If it weren't for Roman by the side, she would want this idiot with a Straw Hat to taste her big fist this time...

"haha, this is a battle between us Pirate. "

Luffy turned his head and looked towards the dog at the entrance of the shop next to him, "Xiuxiu, protect your master's friend! Let's do something serious--"

"wang wang wang !"

"Do you think a dog can understand what you say?"

"haha, uncle said it, Xiuxiu is very smart · ····"

The sound of Luffy and Nami quarreling was heard from the side, and they didn't stop all the way, making Roman shook the head funny. This weird atmosphere is compared with the murderous aura and greed that permeated before the battle:

Not bad.

————————

"he he he, I thought you had run away."

In the middle of the town house In front of the wreck, a group of black Pirate faces the trio who has returned here again, and their eyes are about to burst into flames!

"Red nose,"

Luffy took a step forward, rubbing his fists with interest.

"I have decided, I will beat you up!"

——————

Deadly!

Then:

"aaahhhh What did you say, Straw Hat brat!"

"You don’t know that Captain Buggy hates how people say his red Nose?"

"Yes, red nose is a taboo for the captain. Once he hears this word, he will explode..."

"And red nose What's the matter? Isn’t that a nose? You are appearance discrimination—"

···········

"Red nose, red nose , Red nose..."

Captain Buggy with a clown appearance on his already angry forehead with blue veins bursting out of his forehead waved his hands: puff puff puff. In the puff, the few Pirates who jumped up and down just now called out immediately. 'Push the street' on the spot.

"If you want to irritate me, your goal is achieved—"

! ! !

A flame-like imposing manner swept across the battlefield, and the boy named Luffy looked at Pirate on the ground with a knife in his back. His face was full of anger.

"Hurt your partner at will, someone like you—"

xiu——

The silhouette flashed, and he suddenly rushed to The Clown Buggy In front of him, the clenched fist attacked first!

"Not worthy to be the captain!"
