HxH in One Piece World
Chapter 52 Is the money enough?
Many eyes in the dark followed the backs of Maud and his party.
To them, Maud was just a bunch of walking Baileys, making their eyes hot and itchy.
But if it doesn't work, that's another story.
After all, risks and benefits coexist.
If you are not afraid of death, you can naturally fight hard.
It is done, it is delicious and spicy.
To die is to wave goodbye to this wonderful world.
In addition to these people who are eyeing the head of Maud, there are also some people who are worried about the potential changes that the Maud Pirates may bring.
Among them, there is this fan blade male.
His name is Buffalo, he is one of the cadres of the Don Quixote family, and he is also a superman who has the ability to turn the fruit.
And this time he came to Leviathan Island for a Devil Fruit.
"Bacardi Maud..."
Buffalo watched Maud and his party enter the city, thinking about whether to let the family send a cadre to help.
Originally, Buffalo was not so worried and cautious.
But the tragic incident that Maud has done in the Twin Isles recently is the source of Buffalo's anxiety.
In his opinion, people who can do this kind of thing, if they are not bloodthirsty, they are perverted lunatics or violent madmen...
In short, it can't be a good bird.
People like this are the scariest.
Maybe if you meet them on the street, they will shoot you inexplicably.
Buffalo became more and more uneasy, and the image of Maud in his mind became more and more bloody.
"Uh……"
Buffalo shuddered when his mind reached the point of horror.
After a while,
Buffalo thinks this is bad.
After all, he is Don Quixote's cadre, how can he be so useless.
"Oh, I, Buffalo, are Don Quixote's cadre!"
"Isn't it Bacardi Maud?"
"I'm not afraid at all, yes, not afraid!"
Buffalo uses self-hypnosis to overcome the fears of Maud.
Not far away, someone noticed Buffalo's move of bowing his head.
"The guy who looks like a ball must be mentally ill?"
"A weirdo, we'd better stay away..."
Several people glanced at Buffalo with a look of pity, and then deliberately made a detour to avoid Buffalo.

"Thomas Shipyard is at the north end of Cross Street, and our location is the center of Cross Street."
Betty, a boy with missing teeth, took Maud and the others to Cross Street in Dick City.
Along the way, he fully fulfilled his duties as a guide, explaining the situation and layout of Dick City in detail to Maud and the others.
According to him, Dick City is run through by four straight streets.
These four streets are collectively referred to as Cross Streets and are further divided into East, South, West and North Streets.
Like the Thomas Shipyard that Maud is looking for, it is located at the end of North Cross Street, and it is also the end of "inside the whale's mouth", facing the rock wall, which can also be said to be a dead end in the sense.
Choosing the location of the shipyard in that kind of place was something that Maud couldn't figure out at first.
And Betty quickly solved the puzzle for Maud.
In the Thomas Shipyard, which faces the rock face, there is a current tunnel that leads directly to Leviathan Island.
All ships that are built will eventually leave Leviathan directly through this current tunnel.
"Look, the big pillar in front leading to the head of the 'big whale' is the 'human elevator' dedicated to the royal family and nobles, and it is also one of the restricted areas that I specially indicated in the tourist brochure."
"The army directly under the king will be stationed there twenty-four hours a day, so please don't approach it rashly."
"Otherwise, those soldiers will kill you without asking why!"
"As for the Colosseum near the 'Human Ladder', if you are interested, I can take you in for a tour now. There are many entertainment items in it."
"And I heard that the Colosseum seems to be holding some major events recently, and I heard that the prizes are very rich."
Betty pointed to a top stone pillar ahead.
On the rock wall of the stone pillar, there are four elevator boxes suspended by chains, which are driven by human power and are moving up and down.
The highest point that the stone pillar leads to is the capital of the Kingdom of Ahab on the "head of the whale" on Leviathan Island.
The pursuit of "extremely high" seems to be a common problem for every king in this world.
Whether it is the throne or the place where it lives, it will only be placed on the high ground.
The most symbolic of them is the Holy Land Mary Joa on the Red Earth Continent.
However, in most countries, ladders are used to create "highlands" as a symbol of class gaps and distinctions.
However, the Ahab Kingdom did not build a stepped highland in the belly of the island, but placed the capital directly on the "whale head" of Leviathan Island, which was considered a leader.
Not far from the stone pillar of the human ladder, is the Colosseum that Betty said.
Similar to what Maud imagined, the Colosseum building is a perfect circle, and there is not much difference between it and the Roman arena.
The only commendable thing is that it is about twice as large as the ordinary arena.
"A grand event in the Colosseum? Could it be some kind of martial arts event?"
Maud looked at Betty.
This ten-year-old little guy is like an adult in terms of his tone of voice.
Therefore, Maud is very satisfied with his performance.
"I'm sorry, I'm not very clear, but the most frequently held events in the Colosseum are mainly 'Beast Fighting'."
Betty looked at Maud carefully, and then glanced at Bailey who was standing on Maud's shoulder.
Aware of Betty's eyes, Bailey grinned, pretended to be fierce, and stared at Betty fiercely.
"Yes, sorry!!!"
Betty was frightened by that look.
The legs, which had finally stabilized all the way, started to swing again at this moment.
Snapped.
Maud slapped the actor Bailey over with a slap.
After being slapped by Maud, Bailey pouted, and immediately put away his fierce look.
After letting Bailian down, Maud looked at Betty and smiled: "Don't talk about this, let's go to Thomas Shipyard first."
He has no interest in this so-called fighting beast, and just wants to get a new boat as soon as possible.
"Good, good."
Betty took a deep breath, trying to calm her heartbeat.
The big brothers and sisters in front of him are his rare high-quality guests, so he can't be easily neglected!
Betty showed a sweet smile to Maud and the others, and then continued to lead the way.
Under his leadership, everyone crossed North Street and finally came to Thomas Shipyard.
As soon as their front feet arrived, a tall and straight man in a suit immediately greeted them.
The tall and straight man looked at Maud with a smile on his face, and said humbly: "You are Bacardi Maud, I have heard the name for a long time. I saw it today, really..."
"We want to make a custom ship."
Maud rudely interrupted the man's innocuous nonsense.
Hearing the words, the man still had the same smile on his face, and his posture was still very low.
He bent down slightly, made a welcoming gesture indicating the direction, and smiled: "Okay, please follow me to the VIP room to discuss in detail."
His name was Cairns, and his job at the shipyard was negotiating.
Because the customers who docked are basically arrogant pirates, over time, they have also developed a skilled professional ability to deal with hard stubble.
A few minutes later, Keynes led Maud and his party to the splendid VIP room.
Betty came to this kind of place for the first time and seemed very restrained.
Keynes is also a talent. Even if he saw Betty's identity as a guide, he did not neglect in delivering tea to guests.
This behavior, on the contrary, flattered Betty, and at the same time gave Maud a good impression.
From the previous two sentences of dialogue, Keynes could see that Maud is the type who likes to go straight to the point, so he stopped talking nonsense and directly began to negotiate the matter of buying a boat.
"You mean, you want to order a boat made of the treasure tree Adam?"
After listening to Maud's direct request, there was a little embarrassment on Keynes's face.
"Can't it be done?"
Maud looked at Keynes calmly.
Keynes immediately sternly said:
"Please believe in the strength of our Thomas Shipyard, but Baoshu Adam is an extremely rare shipbuilding material. The price... at least four or five billion. Most of the time, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it. You Look……"
"Oh."
Maud nodded and gave Jim a look with his eyes.
Jim understood, untied the huge cloth bag that had been carried all the way, and then dumped the banknotes and gold and silver jewelry inside.
Whoa!
In the VIP room, there were piles of banknotes like a mountain, and there were many gold jewelry embellishments on them.
Betty, who was eating pastries, looked at the Qian Shan poured out by Jim, and was so shocked that her eyes were about to pop out, and the pastry that had just entered her mouth unfortunately got stuck in her throat.
Jaya handed Betty a cup of tea at the right time and helped him out of the siege.
Keynes opened his eyes wide, surprised at the large number of Baileys piled on the ground.
He has hosted countless rookie pirates here.
However, it was the first time he had seen a rookie pirate group that could spend so much money.
No wonder he wanted to treasure tree Adam as soon as he opened his mouth.
Keynes turned to look at Maud, who was calm.
Bacardi Maud...
This business negotiator who has dealt with various pirates all the year round, vaguely, seems to see extraordinary prospects from the man in front of him.
"Is this money enough?"
Maud said calmly.
