Chapter 47 Grouping and Landing
...
"Black cow!"
Hearing the mayor calling his name, the strongest man couldn't help but shrink his neck, turned his head and replied:
"Ah~, Mayor, what did you call me for?"
The mayor looked serious and asked:
"Do you know that the group of vampires in the navy who are responsible for exchanging bounties always find various reasons to deduct the money that should be paid to us?"
"Of course I know, Mayor. I really want to chop off those bastard marines. The head of Gufasa last time was obviously real. I chopped it off with my own hands, but they insisted that they couldn't recognize it and refused to exchange 600 million Baileys for us."
When it comes to this, Hei Niu gets excited and starts to criticize the navy.
The mayor had an unnatural expression on his face, and he was complaining in his heart:
You really can't blame others that time. It was all because you were too cruel. You smashed the pirate's head beyond recognition. I didn't even have the courage to argue with him at that time.
"I know you're still throwing things around like that! If I see you not handling the heads you want to exchange for the bounty with care again, I'll have your ass beaten to a pulp!"
The mayor said unhappily.
"Tsk, I get it, Mayor."
Hei Niu said perfunctorily with some disdain and found an opportunity to call a few brothers to leave. After a big fight, he should go out for a drink to relax and enjoy himself. He was not willing to stay and listen to a stinky old man's nagging.
...
One of the 7 routes of the Grand Line, Whiskey Peak is the first stop for all pirates who choose this route. Therefore, pirates constantly visit the island, and the town often has to face harassment and attacks from pirates. Over time, the local people have developed a tough character. Survival of the fittest, those who are not tough have been eliminated.
This island is short of resources. The mountains on Whiskey Peak are bare without even a tree or grass. It is impossible to cultivate food or cash crops, so hunting pirates in exchange for bounties has become the main source of income for this town.
Almost everyone in the town became a bounty hunter, from old ladies in their seventies and eighties to children as young as 5 or 6 years old. In order to make a living, they also played their respective roles in one pirate hunting operation after another.
Those who cannot fight will be responsible for receiving and confusing the pirates, making them let down their guard. In the end, they often fall unconscious after drinking beer mixed with technology and ruthlessness, and are killed in their sleep by the members responsible for fighting.
Except for some extremely powerful supernova pirate groups, like those who have just left the Four Seas and whose bounty has exceeded 2000 million Baileys, they will choose to treat them well and not provoke them actively. This move has caused dissatisfaction among the younger generation. In their opinion, whether it is 2 million or 2 million, they should all be taken. Fortunately, the prestige established by the village chief over the past few decades is still there, which suppresses their arrogance. As for the rest of the ordinary pirate groups, they basically became their prey, and the unrealistic pirate dream was buried forever on this island.
...
As they were about to reach the shore, Gel clapped his hands and said:
"Everyone, we have to stay on this island for two or three days. We can only leave for the next stop after the recording pointer has recorded the magnetic field of the next island."
The recording pointer setting is very good, which allows pirates to sign in and punch in at each island honestly and refuse to cheat or take shortcuts. However, there will be a permanent pointer later. Okay, just ignore what I said.
"We will divide into groups first and assign tasks. After we arrive on the island, we will move freely according to the groups and gather at the port in two days."
"Great! I can smell the scent of adventure. Captain, let's team up with Jin!"
Bi Ya raised her hand and shouted.
Ajin also nodded to indicate that it was okay. He had always thought that they were the only two people of the same age on the ship.
"You can all go and have fun without worry. There won't be any problems as I'll stay on board."
Kurokas said without looking up from the book in his hands.
He had already traveled the entire Grand Line, and it was no longer new to him. Besides, he now had more important things to do:
That is to study medicine!
Yes, Captain Geller was once again considerate of his subordinates and provided a large pile of books to the ship's doctor, Kurokas.
The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine, Acupuncture and Moxibustion, Pulse Classic, Compendium of Materia Medica, and Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases were all arranged, and Kulokas was forced to open the door of cognition by Gel. He did not expect that he would have to return to his apprenticeship days at an old age and began to work hard and study the miraculous quintessence of traditional Chinese medicine. This just proved the saying that one never stops learning.
After coming to this world, Geer has always attached great importance to cultural output and is determined to promote Chinese culture. This old man can no longer escape the fact that he has to observe, smell, ask and feel the patient before treating him in the future, and when treating a disease, he has to learn from Aunt Rong to prick patients with a needle.
"Lab, come with me for a walk. You can't learn from this old man to stay at home at such a young age."
"Meow meow!"
Rab said as he jumped onto Ger's shoulders.
Ger looked in the mirror and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
A black suit jacket is draped over the back like a navy cloak of justice, and a little cat stands on the shoulder.
Captain Gear touched Lab's head and said with a smile:
"Rob Lucci and White Pigeon are not as good looking as the two of us."
"Meow~"
Kurokas and Weevil are responsible for staying behind, one studying medicine and the other continuing to practice physical skills. There is no need to open two big accounts just after leaving the novice village.
Kurokas was the doctor that Roger sought to board the ship because he fell ill with a terminal illness. He was not a full-time combat member, so his strength had always been seriously underestimated, and he also suffered from appearing on the ship too early.
Besides, isn't the ship's doctor a humble person who gets the lowest bounty but fights the most brutal fights every day?
Kurokas also had a bad temper. Back then, he often fought with Roger on his ship because Roger did not listen to his advice and drank too much.
And they were able to experience so many battles together on Roger's pirate ship, such as the Battle of Edwo. If he wasn't strong, would he be able to live to the point of successfully retiring with all his limbs intact?
What, how do you explain that Red Nosed Bucky has all his limbs intact?
He has the Splitting Fruit and is not afraid of being cut, and he also has the Conqueror's Luck to protect him. Is this something that ordinary people can compare to?
In the original work, when Kurokus appeared, he was already over 70 years old, but he was still in good health and could easily kill a small sea king with one blow. His true strength can be seen from this.
Final grouping results.
Ajin and Biya are in a group, responsible for eating and playing.
Ada and Aer are in a group and have free time.
Mosan and Funi are in a group. Since both of them have little fighting ability, Moria is asked to follow them to prevent accidents. The three of them are also responsible for eating and playing.
Senior and Fate are a group. Originally, they were responsible for supplies, but since Gel has the system mall, their tasks can only be to play and eat. By the way, they can also buy some things with unique local characteristics that cannot be bought through the system.
Gel took out a large pile of cash and said proudly:
"500 million Baileys per person, eat and play as much as you want, buy whatever you like, no need to help me save money, our main goal is to be willful and boost the local economy. For those who can't spend all the money, the budget will be halved next time!"
"Wow! I love you so much Captain!! The Captain is so cool!"
Bia hugged Geer's thigh and started flattering him.
