Chapter 99 Quinn and Xiao Huang
Two days later, the first half of the Grand Line.
"Red bean soup, red bean soup, hurry up and serve me red bean soup. I'm very bored now and I must eat red bean soup to relieve my boredom!"
A fat man in a one-piece suspender suit was roaring on a pirate ship.
His blond hair was tied up like a string of candied haws on the back of his head, and he had two golden whiskers hanging down to his collarbone. Well, never mind, this fat guy has no collarbone, so what I just said doesn't count. Anyway, this fat guy is very wretched.
"Yes, yes, Brother Quinn, let's get ready now!"
I was extremely terrified because Quinn was a bit moody, cruel and ruthless. He did whatever he wanted and many of my brothers died at his hands.
"Why is time passing so slowly? The speed of the Brachiosaurus is too slow. When can I return to Wano Country?
No, I must find a way to transform my ship when I return. This bastard Jhin is always causing trouble for me. Remember this!"
Quinn rolled on the deck, full of resentment.
"Brother Quinn, I'm not in a hurry. I've been living in the first half of the Grand Line anyway, so a few days won't make a difference!" said a smaller man next to Quinn.
"Auston! Did I give you face? Boss Kaido values you, but I don't care.
Don't think that just because Kaido sent me to pick you up, you can act recklessly in front of me.
He is just an ancient person with special abilities. He is nothing special. It is not certain whether he can become one of the Six Sons.
Wait until you become a big boss and then talk to me on an equal footing.
I just want to go back to Onigashima as soon as possible to do my research. I have another idea for a poison bomb, and I really want to go back and do my research as soon as possible!
Your research is nothing compared to mine!
You are just a small task of mine. There are many people like you in the new world!"
Quinn said with disdain that he was a veteran figure under the boss, and this kind of pure fruit ability user was really not good enough in front of him.
"Yes, yes, Brother Quinn, I am ungrateful and don't know the difference between a king and a queen. I will need your care when we get to Ghost Island. I will definitely follow your lead!"
Auston quickly bowed his head, but there was resentment in his eyes.
He was considered a supernova in the first half of the Grand Line, with a bounty of 1 million berries.
When had he ever suffered such humiliation? In front of so many minions, he was scolded like a grandson and slapped in the face.
I have to bear it like a grandson. If this gets to the Beasts Pirates, how will I survive in the future?
No matter how high a position you achieve in the future, there will still be a stain behind the glory.
"Pretend to surrender to him first. When I become strong enough, I will be the first to kill you, you fat pig!" Austin thought secretly in his heart.
"Well, you still have some self-awareness. When you get to Onigashima, just follow me. Stay away from that scumbag Jin. I will follow you from now on!"
Quinn didn't care about Auston's mood at all.
In the world of pirates, the bigger the fist, the more powerful it is, just like when Quinn went to find Austin to join the Beasts Pirates.
"Are you Austin? I'm the boss of the Beasts Pirates, and now I invite you to join our pirate group."
"What? Don't want to?"
"Brachiosaurus Power Fist!"
"He is really weak. Let's carry him to the boat! As long as he is not dead, it's fine!"
This is why Austin appeared on this boat. Since he can't resist, just lie down and enjoy it. Austin knows how to deal with things.
"Well, I joined the Beasts Pirates because I saw that they had great potential for development. I didn't join because I was scared of being beaten!
You must believe in my determination to become the Pirate King! Joining is only a temporary solution. I will find a chance to kill Kaido and take his place. I believe I can do it!"
Austin’s inner monologue is so powerful and shocking that even Kaido said it’s good and ambitious!
"Brother Quinn, there is a ship ahead!"
The lookout's shout interrupted Auston's fantasy, and Quinn also became interested. He was really bored.
"Wahahaha, bring the telescope over here, I'll see if there's anything fun to be had!"
Quinn couldn't wait to get up, walked to the edge of the boat and looked into the distance.
A minion quickly brought a telescope, and Quinn took it and looked into the distance.
He didn't see it at first, but after looking around and waiting for a while, a warship with a very different color appeared in Quinn's eyes.
"Hmm! A warship without any markings, it shouldn't belong to any famous naval commander."
"Don't worry about those passers-by A, B, and C who are not presentable. They are no threat to us!"
"Hmm? What's that on the bow? There are so many big waves. Oh, it's a sea beast. The sea beast can pull the boat really fast!"
"I envy having sea beasts to pull the boat, but unfortunately, either we are weak and don't have the strength to catch sea beasts, or we are capable people who can't go to the sea.
What a pity! If there were sea beasts pulling the boat, we could get back to Wano Country much faster. My research! Experimental subjects, just wait for me for a few months. I will definitely treat you well when I get back! Wahahaha!"
Quinn has always been a master of facial expressions. Now he started his performance again and performed a weird dance.
"Brother Quinn, if you want it so badly, why don't we go and rob that sea beast?"
Quinn remembered Auston's voice next to his ear.
Suddenly, Quinn's eyes lit up, and he wondered why he hadn't thought of it. What a good idea! This kid has a pretty smart brain. I could do some small experiments on him to reward him when I have the chance!
I can’t lose face for my big brother now, I’m going to show off!
Quinn was still dancing, and the little brother behind him started dancing with him, looking hopeless. Quinn began his facial expression performance, which was really eye-catching. He talked while dancing.
"Zimu... Zimu... Zimu, don't I know? You still need me to tell you that I wanted to wait until I was closer before snatching it. How could you expose my strategic intentions?
Don't do this next time, kid, you still have a lot to learn, follow me more and see how the pirates act, hum! Zimu..."
Quinn was teaching his younger brother beside him, really acting like a good brother!
"Yes, yes, it's my fault. Brother Quinn should have thought of it earlier. I was too talkative!"
Auston rolled his eyes and quickly agreed with Quinn, "Bah, how shameless! Fatty."
"Guys, get ready. If they show any signs of escaping, row as hard as you can and make sure to capture this sea beast!" Quinn gave the order.
"Oh!!!"
The minions shouted loudly.
"You idiots, why are you shouting so loudly? You've scared the navy away. Go down and pull the boat for me!!!"
……
The scene turns to the warship. Vic is sitting on the deck and feeling the nature, um, basking in the sun and enjoying the sea breeze!
Vic looked very comfortable. It was rare for him to be so leisurely. This time, he finally felt like he had lifted a heavy stone from his heart and was able to relax.
"Vic, this is the seahorse I drew, take a look at it, haha!"
Gion handed Vic a piece of drawing paper, which he had drawn on the sleeping Kaiba last night.
Vic took it and looked at it carefully, turning his head from time to time to look at Kaiba, then looking at the painting, and then at Gion who was smiling.
"Well, the painting is good. Don't paint again in the future!" Vic said lightly.
Yesterday Vic showed off his amazing painting skills on the warship and painted a picture of Gion that will be unforgettable in a lifetime!
The person in the painting was breathtakingly beautiful, with a sweet smile. It was collected by Gion, who said that the painting was the biggest gain from this trip.
Then the three girls also picked up their brushes and started painting. They were also excited to see the prey.
What Vic was seeing now was the masterpiece that Gion had carefully painted last night. The seahorse rolled its eyes, opened its mouth wide, and stuck out its tongue. Its entire face was distorted!
Hai Ma would cry and shout when seeing this, "I don't look like this. If I die, I won't be able to enter the ancestral tomb or be included in the family tree. This is definitely not a painting of me. It has absolutely nothing to do with me. I am not Ma Bond!"
Gion looked happy when he heard the first half of Vic's sentence, but his smile froze on his face when he heard the second half.
Rebecca and Wendy next to them were laughing so hard that they almost broke the deck. Gion glared at the two girls, then looked at Vic with an angry face.
"There's nothing wrong with my painting. I just added a little imagination on the basis of realism. Why don't you like it? Yes, you draw very well, I admit, but my painting is not bad either!!!" Gion argued.
"Xiao Huang, look back, just take a look, the painting my sister made for you will definitely have a surprise!"
Vic didn't reply, but spoke to the seahorse pulling the boat in front and raised the painting in his hand.
That’s right, the white seahorse was given the name Xiao Huang by Gion.
The seahorse turned around and was immediately shocked. This painting was still of a creature from this world? This was beyond all things, right?
Xiao Huang spat out his breakfast, as well as yesterday's and the day before yesterday's breakfast, completely spitting it out, as if leaving any of it would be a blasphemy to the painting.
Xiao Huang turned his head, and the whole beast was lost in enlightenment, with its fins paddling mechanically.
Vic saw that Xiao Huang's body had lost its color and turned gray, with a gloomy atmosphere filling the air.
"Xiao Huang, just take a look. It's not right to lose your life. Don't be depressed. Cheer up and pull the boat well. Good days are still ahead!"
Vic comforted Xiao Huang and told him not to get too upset.
"Just one look and I'm half dead. Are you polite?"
If Xiao Huang could speak, I think he would retort in the same way.
