Selling Pokémon from Pirates

Chapter 377 Blackbeard and Tazmi's Day

"It's so spectacular!!! Is this the imperial capital!!!?"

In the streets with people coming and going, Tatsumi opened his arms with excitement, and greedily breathed the air that belonged to the imperial capital.

And the black beard beside him also showed an expression of incomparable amazement at this moment, muttering in a low voice:

"I didn't expect that there is such a magnificent city in the B-level world. It's really a lot of experience!"

Holding Tazmi's thigh, Blackbeard and him went all the way to the imperial capital that Tazmi talked about.

Originally, Blackbeard had no interest in this so-called imperial capital.

After all, in the world of Pirates, there are countless countries destroyed by him, so what can a small imperial capital do!
But now he discovered that he was wrong!

In the world of Pirates, apart from the Red Earth Continent, there is no large-scale practiced land at all.

This has also led to countries in the One Piece World, whose land area is usually very small.

Even in some places, the capital of the kingdom covers an area no more than the size of a village.

For example, the winter island of the Great Route - the Drum Kingdom.

Except for a royal palace far away from the crowd, the whole country is completely a collection of large and small villages.

And such countries abound in the pirate world.

But in this new world, the whole world is dominated by one country...

This has also led to the fact that the imperial capital of this country, after more than a thousand years of development, has already become unimaginably huge!
Blackbeard, who was married to the land world for the first time, was taken aback by the size of the imperial capital unexpectedly.

But soon, the corners of his mouth rose wildly.

"really!!!"

"The one who can conquer such a world is the real king!!!"

"This is the joy that I will never experience in the world of pirates!!!"

Blackbeard laughed wildly inwardly.

After coming to the imperial capital, he has recovered the elemental ability to use the swamp fruit.

However, Blackbeard did not choose to separate from Tazmi, but planned to go to the conscription point with him for an interview and join the imperial army.

After all, the power of elementalization is not truly invincible, it can guarantee his absolute safety.

Especially his relatively weak fruit ability.

And after becoming a soldier of the imperial capital, he can be regarded as having the status of an official, so it will be more convenient to do things.

And Tazmi, who just arrived in the imperial capital, is also very simple. He is very happy that he can make his first new friend in the metropolis, so he is also very happy with Blackbeard's proposal.

soon.

The two came to the recruitment center of the imperial capital.

Because the phenomenon of corruption and corruption in the empire in recent years has been very eye-catching, it has caused the people in the entire empire to live in dire straits.

Many men who could not survive chose to come to the imperial capital to join the national army.

So here at this time, it can be described as a sea of ​​people.

Fortunately, Tatsumi has enough patience, and Blackbeard is also aimless, and the two have plenty of time.

After a long queue, the two finally came to the conscription officer.

"Sir, hello!"

Tatsumi greeted warmly.

however……

The interviewer looked tired and threw out a form.

"Fill out the form first!"

"Ah?"

Full of passion, Tatsumi was taken aback for a moment, then moved his gaze down, and suddenly saw the title on the form...

[Recruitment Information Form].

"Is this...you want me to start as a recruit!?"

"Are you kidding me!!?"

Tatsumi pouted disapprovingly.

Immediately afterwards, with a swish, he pulled out the long sword behind him and aimed it at the interviewer.

Tatsumi looked proud and said:

"Please! I don't have time for that!"

"Look at my skills, sir!"

"Guaranteed to surprise you!"

"At least, let the captain let me do it!"

"........."

Tatsumi's reckless move frightened the interviewer for a moment.

However, after listening to what Tatsumi said, the interviewer's complexion immediately turned red, and he said angrily:

"Get out!!!"

"Do you think I'm playing games here for brats like you!!?"

After finishing speaking, the interviewer was about to stand up, ready to throw out Tatsumi, the guy who disturbed the order.

However, at this moment...

A rough figure suddenly appeared, blocking the interviewer's movements.

Seeing that the form was not good, the black beard who was standing behind Tatsumi hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile:
"Hey..."

"My lord, don't be angry! Don't be angry!"

While speaking, Blackbeard directly pulled off the money bag from Tazmi's waist, and stuffed it into the interviewer's arms without any trace.

"My little brother just came from the countryside, and he doesn't know many rules of the imperial capital. Please forgive me."

"Hey, that's what the villagers saved for me..."

Tatsumi realized that his purse was missing, and wanted to say something else.

But Blackbeard suddenly turned around, gave him a "shut up" look, and choked back his words.

"Um……"

Feeling the sincerity of the other party in his arms, the interviewer's face suddenly changed, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Ahahaha, I just made a joke."

With that said, he sat back on his seat again, and looked up and down at Blackbeard and Tazmi.

"It can be seen that both of you should have some strength, since this is the case..."

The interviewer slowly took out two forms from under the table, handed them to Blackbeard, and said:
"Here are two application forms for special soldiers..."

"Three days later, take this application form to the special military base east of the imperial capital for direct assessment."

"Don't blame me for not reminding you, the assessment of special soldiers is very dangerous, and you may die if you are not careful!"

"Whether to go or not depends on your own choice!"

"Thank you! Thank you, my lord!"

After completing the form, Blackbeard hurriedly bowed and saluted, pulling Tazmi out of the crowd with a smile.

For him who has been undercover in the Whitebeard Pirates for [-] years without being noticed by anyone, this little disguise is simply easy to catch.

Walking out of the Admissions Office of the barracks, Tatsumi pouted immediately and said dissatisfiedly:

"Hey! Uncle Teach! Why are you giving all my money to that guy!"

"Just let me show my strength..."

"Tazmi!"

Blackbeard suddenly interrupted Tazmi, took out two application forms, and said earnestly:
"The world of the big city is not as simple as the village you are in."

"If you want to survive better in this imperial capital, you have learned something!"

"And your money is not wasted..."

"Look, isn't this the result of our battle!?"

"Special soldiers! It sounds like it reveals an extraordinary aura."

"This……"

Tatsumi showed a hesitant expression, but seeing the application form in Blackbeard's hand, he finally lowered his head and did not continue to be stubborn.

"So the imperial capital is like this..."

For some reason, he didn't feel the excitement of coming to the imperial capital at all at this moment.

But soon, he adjusted his mentality.

After all, his purpose of coming to the imperial capital is also very simple, just to earn some money and send it to his hometown.

Secondly, being able to settle down in the prosperous imperial capital is also a good life pursuit for a countryman like him.

only……

"Speaking of which, Uncle Tiqi, you gave all my money to that interviewer, so what are we going to do with our dinner today?"

He does know...

Because Blackbeard was avoiding the pursuit of thieves, he didn't carry a penny on his body, let alone anything of value.

"Ah this..."

Blackbeard who was questioned by Tatsumi was taken aback for a moment, and then slowly showed an extremely embarrassed expression.

finally.

Because Tatsumi was unwilling to accept Blackbeard's suggestion of stealing or robbing, the two homeless people in the imperial capital could only come to the creek on the border of the imperial capital and act separately.

I plan to use the strengths of the two to catch some fish for today's dinner.

however……

At this moment, a gorgeous carriage suddenly passed by the side of the stream.

Seemingly discovering the person who was groping in the creek, the carriage stopped suddenly.

A cute blond-haired little girl got off the carriage and saw the tent parked by the stream, the corners of her mouth slightly curled up, and she walked towards Tazmi.

"Hello, what are you doing here?"

The girl's voice was very sweet, but in her eyes, there was a faint desire that could not be hidden.

It's just that Tatsumi, who was far away, didn't notice this at all.

"what?"

Hearing the girl's voice, Tatsumi, who was smearing and looking for fish, suddenly stood up.

Seeing the boy wearing a princess costume on the bank, Tatsumi was taken aback for a moment, and replied:
"I... am I catching fish?"

"Catch fish?"

The girl smiled and said with a smile:

"If you don't have a place to live, you can come to my house~"

"What!? Really!?"

Tatsumi blushed and said in surprise.

"Of course it is!"

At this moment, the guards who were originally guarding both sides of the carriage also came over and said in agreement:

"Miss Alia is always worried about people like you."

"Are you going to accept her kindness?"

"This... this is really troublesome for you!"

Meeting such a kind person, Tazmi's heart instantly warmed up.

Then he suddenly shouted:

"Hey!!! Uncle Tiki!!! We don't have to catch fish!!!"

"A kind person agreed to let us stay at her house!!!"

"What!? There is such a good thing!?"

Blackbeard, who had been squatting under the bridge to catch fish and was not seen by the noble lady, suddenly stepped out of the shadows.

Seeing the noble lady who invited Tatsumi, he suddenly grinned.

"Is that you? Beautiful lady?"

"thief hahaha..."

"You guys are really kind!"

"........."

"........."

The noble lady and the guards fell silent.

Alicia swears...

If she had known that Tazmi and Blackbeard were together, she would never have invited Blackbeard.

That ugly body is really not qualified to be put together with her collections.

In fact...

Aliya is not some kind noble lady.

Under her cute appearance, there is an extremely ugly and dirty face hidden!

She would often hang out at night and lure homeless travelers to her house.

After gaining enough trust, they will drug the travelers, and then imprison them in her prison, torture them cruelly, and finally torture them to death!
And Tatsumi is obviously her next target.

However, now that the invitation has been sent out, Aliya does not intend to stop there.

In the end, Tatsumi and Blackbeard, who packed up their salutes, arrived at Aliya's house by car.

And had a perfect dinner.

The Aliya family is perfectly disguised, giving people the impression that they are kind-hearted nobles.

If Blackbeard hadn't smelled a very strong smell of blood as soon as he entered the mansion, and noticed the hidden desire in the eyes of Alia's family...

Maybe even he, an old Jianghu, will be deceived.

The vigilant Blackbeard didn't eat the food from Aliya's house, but used the fruit ability to put the swallowed food into the swamp space.

It wasn't until a long time later that he saw that Tazmi had nothing to do, so he took out the food from the swamp space to replenish the physical energy that had been consumed for the day.

Silent all night.

Time soon came to the second day.

On this day, Tatsumi was called out by the noble girl early in the morning to go shopping with her.

Blackbeard, who had eaten breakfast, smiled coyly, and after greeting Aliya's parents, he went straight back to his bedroom and closed the door tightly.

It looked as if he was afraid that his appearance would affect the owner of the house.

And this is also in line with his low self-esteem as a country bumpkin.

only……

The black beard who returned to the bedroom opened the window directly, and after confirming that there were no guards below, the corners of his mouth raised.

"Let me take a look, what interesting things are hidden under the mask of hypocrisy?"

As soon as the voice fell, Blackbeard jumped up and jumped out of the window.

But the moment he landed, his body suddenly turned into a puddle of mud, and instantly merged with the ground without making a single sound.

The elemental black beard suddenly squirmed in the direction where the bloody breath came out.

Soon, he came to a closed big iron gate.

The tight iron gate couldn't stop the elemental Blackbeard at all.

Only a few seconds later, Blackbeard suddenly came to a secret room.

With the help of the sunlight from the skylight, he had a panoramic view of everything in the secret room.

"Hey hey hey~"

"This is really...a bit of a surprise!"

Blackbeard's complexion was slightly shocked, and he couldn't help murmuring in surprise.

Although I have already guessed some things, but looking at hundreds of dead bodies of different shapes in front of me...

Even a ruthless person like him couldn't help but marvel.

After all, Blackbeard kills people for his own goal, to solve the existence that hinders him.

But the dead bodies in front of them were obviously cruelly tortured to death.

"Tsk tsk tsk... It looks like this new world is more interesting than I thought!"

Blackbeard clicked his tongue.

He didn't have any idea of ​​fighting violence and peace, and fighting for the injustice of Alia's family.

After all, that's not his personality.

but……

If you just searched for the wealth and weapons in this mansion, wouldn't it be considered a good deed?

"thief hahaha..."

"It seems that my first pot of gold has already been settled!"

With a roar of laughter, the black beard figure suddenly disappeared into the secret room.
