HxH in One Piece World

On this sea, how far can you go without ambition?

this moment.

Lafayette has been waiting a long time.

Although good things are worth waiting for, I am afraid that waiting too long will cause them to wither, rot, and cease to exist.

Fortunately, this fear did not become a reality.

At least, at that time, I followed the choice made by my heart...

Suddenly, what Thor had said to himself in the woods flashed through his mind.

"Huh..."

Lafayette grinned, took off his top hat, lowered his arms and threw his arms in front of him, and gave Maud a gentleman's salute.

Different from the dullness in the past, this time the salute seemed quite solemn.

Afterwards, there was no further expression, and no swearing oath to the extreme.

After saluting, Lafayette put on his hat again and immediately met Maud's gaze.

The two stared at each other silently for a moment.

Some words do not need to be said a second time.

Maud also showed a smile.

Humans are not omnipotent.

There are things you are good at and things you are not good at.

So, just as Lafayette needs the future possibilities he has, he also needs Lafayette's power.

Navigation, foresight, and strategy are what Lafayette can bring to him.

Like a competent guide, let him not take too many detours.

"The guide..."

Maud's thoughts suddenly merged into such a name.

This blurted name directly penetrated Lafayette's last line of defense.

guide.

This is Lafayette's self-proclaimed position, and it is also his identity as a navigator, and the meaning of the fruit's ability.

Before that, he had not revealed this to Maud.

At this moment, Maud himself said the words "Guide", but it made Lafayette feel inexplicably moved.

"Lafayette, the title of Sheriff Devil is still a bit too earthy. It's better to be a guide. I think it's pretty good."

"..."

The corner of Lafayette's mouth twitched lightly, and the emotion that just came out of his heart faded like a tide.

Looking at Lafayette's reaction, Maud chuckled.

"Lafayette, I can't guarantee whether I can go to the highest point in the future, but I do have this capital."

With that said, Maud looked at Moo who still had one breath left. There was one thing that was worth checking.

Lafayette nodded.

What is capital.

It's not something that can be answered with just one question.

but……

Lafayette glanced at the pitch-black notebook in Maud's hand.

Intuition tells him that this may be the capital that Maud said.

He was looking forward to this, and always did.

As Saul had said to him.

Maud is special.

Lafayette believed, and was willing to lower his profile to wait for Maud's response.

If things go wrong, it's just a matter of changing places.

So, he is here.

Maud drew his quill from the spine of the Hunter's Notes, opened the pages, and wrote Moo's name in the space above the horizontal line.

After writing, Maud removed the Hunter's Note in front of Lafayette and Bailey.

In the eyes of Lafayette and Bailey, the dark notebook was like disappearing out of thin air, without the slightest sign.

"If it's not a devil fruit..."

A strange color flashed in Lafayette's eyes.

This phenomenon of appearing and disappearing out of nowhere,

Lafayette really couldn't think of any other possibilities besides the Devil Fruit ability.

But he wouldn't question what Maud said.

Since it is not a devil fruit, it can only be the capital that Maud said.

Lafayette watched Maud's next move silently, without interfering.

After Maud removed the hunter's note, he jumped straight to the sea, stabbed Moo's vital point with a knife, and then stepped on the moon step back to the shore.

Returning Chidori, who had shed the blood stains, Maud calmly watched Moo and took his last breath.

There is no gain whatsoever.

"Sure enough..."

Maud was mentally prepared.

After all, this is a hunter's note and not a beast's note.

"Go, go and receive the spoils. As for the notes, we'll talk about it later."

Maud strode toward the dragon's territory.

He knew Lafayette wanted him to explain, but it wasn't the right moment.

Lafayette nodded lightly, and habitually played a few sticks with his crutches, then put his hands behind him and quickly followed Maud.

Bailey looked back at Moo's body and swallowed secretly.

On Maud's shoulder, he thought to himself: "So much meat, can't be wasted later!"

The two of them walked towards the dragon's territory, as if they didn't see the three of Nami in the distance.

At this moment, Nami and the others looked at Aaron's corpse as if in a dream.

The shadow that had been shrouded in Cocosia Village for a long time was dispelled in this way.

This result is both random and sudden.

The three of Nami couldn't calm down their inner emotions.

When he came back to his senses, the boy who defeated the Dragon Pirates had already entered the territory.

"If only... come earlier."

Nuo Qi Gao's eyes drooped down, as if a precious picture flashed in her crystal clear eyes.

"It's incredible..." A Jian raised his hand and pressed down the brim of his hat, suppressing the rush of joy in his heart, and said solemnly, "I'll inform others."

"I'll go as well."

Nuoqigao silently retracted his gaze towards the territory.

The Dragon Pirates are gone.

They want to tell everyone the news as soon as possible.

So that everyone... is freed from long-term repression!

Nami walked to the dragon's territory without saying a word.

Her deal with Maud isn't officially over yet.

"Nami..."

Ah Jian subconsciously looked at Nami.

Nuoqi held A Jian's shoulders high and said in a low voice, "Let's go notify the others first."

Ah Jian glanced at Nuo Qi Gao and nodded silently.

Just a few of them are not enough to thank Maud for defeating the Evil Dragon Pirates.

Dragon Territory.

The tower-like building has five floors and occupies a large area.

The overall look and feel is not majestic, but it is also imposing.

Maud did not look at the murloc corpses on the ground and came to the gate of the building.

Lafayette and Bailey followed.

Maud pushed open the door and walked in.

"Let's find them separately. The Evil Dragon Pirates should have a lot of assets, enough for us to change a big ship."

Maud said a word to Lafayette Bailey and walked first to the room where the treasure money might be placed.

With their current small sailboat, with Lafayette's ability, it may not be a problem to cross the Upside Down Mountain.

But after entering the great channel, don't even think about sailing with a small sailboat.

And in the East China Sea, if you want to get a large amount of money to buy a ship or build a ship in the shortest time.

Then, the Evil Dragon Territory is definitely the best place to go.

Getting the property of the Evil Dragon Pirates is also one of the main reasons for Maud to come here.

Lafayette went straight to the stairs.

Maud starts on the ground floor, then he starts to search down from the top floor.

Bailey was also excited, and disappeared in a flash.

However, what he was looking for was not the treasure, but the kitchen.

Lafayette followed the stairs to the top floor and started searching.

Soon.

He came to a special room, which was stacked with a large number of charts.

Near the window, there is a table with all the tools.

"This is... a measurement room?"

Lafayette glanced at the charts around him.

As a navigator, he suddenly became interested.
