One Piece: Fist of the World

"How about a couple of drinks together, young men."

Pulling out the chair and sitting down, Nia looked at Rhodes and Nailu in front of her.

Compared with the navy idiot just now, these two guys in front of me can be regarded as the number one figures in the entire North Sea, especially the guy with short hair, who is absolutely as strong as a monster.

Her body instincts had been clearly reminding her of this, as if the person sitting in front of her was a humanoid beast.

However, if they join, there is no need to worry about this time.

After taking the wine glass brought by the bartender, Nia pushed it in front of Rhodes and Nailu and extended her hand to signal.

"If you have anything to say, just say it directly."

Picking up the wine glass and taking a sip, Rhodes frowned slightly.

Sure enough, beer is more suitable for him.

"Exciting! I accepted a commission to deliver a person to Mignon Island. The other party has people there to handle it. As long as the person is delivered safely, the reward is 5 million beli. If you join, The reward can be shared equally.”

Mignon Island!

It is an island next to Feiyan Island. It only takes half a day to get to Feiyan Island from there.

Rhodes pondered for a moment, then picked up the wine glass and touched it with Nia.

"Let me make it clear first that I will not do kidnapping or human trafficking."

"Don't worry, I am also a person with a bottom line."

"Then, it's a pleasure working together!"

······

"Does the client live in a place like this?"

Looking at the messy place in front of him that looked like an abandoned warehouse, Rhodes looked at Nia in confusion.

Can a guy living in a place like this really afford 5 million beli?

"You are the ones who accepted the commission, right? My name is Gray, and I am a scientist."

A slovenly young man walked out of the warehouse. He was about 30 years old. He was casually wearing a white work clothes, but it had not been changed for a long time. The clothes were full of stains. He wore a similarly tattered hat on his head. He wears a fisherman hat, has thick dark circles on his face, and his beard seems to have not been repaired for a long time. The whole person looks very decadent, but he does have a bit of a Frankenstein look.

But, does this guy really have money?

Seemingly seeing the suspicion in the eyes of the people in front of him, Gray explained:

"There will be other people who will pay. You just need to send me to Mignon Island. They have people who will help you there and will give the money to you."

Could this guy have been defrauded?

Looking at the self-proclaimed scientist in front of him, Rhodes couldn't help but have this thought flashing through his mind.

"You know the Filker family, a mafia family that has become famous in recent years. Their senior officials heard about my name and specially invited me to join their family."

Before Rhodes and the others could ask questions, Gray started talking.

"I heard that in recent years, the Navy has developed technology that allows warships to safely pass through windless zones. I have been thinking about how to achieve it, but no matter how I envision it, if I really want to make a breakthrough, I still have to go practice.

But as you can see, I am a poor man and have no funds for shipbuilding experiments. But the Felker family promised me that as long as I design some new weapons for them, they would support my shipbuilding experiments. I have always wanted to build a super powerful warship! "

He is a Frankenstein and a talkative...

"Have you heard of the legendary ancient weapon [Pluto]? I heard that it was an invincible battleship, but it was something from hundreds of years ago, and even if it is still estimated, it is useless. Let me tell you, I want to build a battleship more powerful than that [Pluto].

Let me tell you, I have a super awesome idea. As long as it can be realized, it will definitely shock everyone's jaw! But there is no suitable material at all, so no matter how good my idea is, there is no way to realize it.

Of course, it's also possible that I don't know. After all, this is just the North Sea. Really, why wasn't I born in the South China Sea? I heard that the technology over there is more developed..."

"Hey, did you use a gun?"

Suddenly noticing the gun hanging on Nailu's waist, Gray's eyes lit up slightly.

"Then let me give this to you. I just made this some time ago. Because of the support of the Felker family, the overall forging uses the best materials, and it was made by me myself. It is better than The one you’re using now is definitely much better, even if it’s the extra payment I’m paying you.”

Gray got into the warehouse, rummaged through a pile of things for a while, and then took out a dark-colored spear and handed it to Nailu.

Seeing the black gun handed over by Gray, Nelu's eyes lit up slightly. As a good gun user, he could tell at a glance that this black gun was definitely a masterpiece.

"I believe what you said now. It's really possible that the Felker family will invite you to join."

After playing with it for a while, Nairo became more and more satisfied. This guy named Gray applied new technology to this gun. It can load 10 bullets at a time, and the stability and accuracy of the gun are very good.

Truly a talent.

Rhodes nodded secretly, then looked at Gray.

"If there's nothing else to pack, let's go now."

"Okay, I don't have anything to pack. What's left here are all scraps from previous research. The really important things are all in my mind. But I'm really reluctant to leave. I've been here for several years. If I hadn't reached a bottleneck in my research, I would have..."

Frankenstein was chattering in his ear again, and Rhodes felt a little headache and could only try to block his voice. Fortunately, Neru quickly rescued him, and responded to Gray's chattering very perfunctorily, and then asked a lot of questions about firearms.

"Lead the way, Nia. Where is your ship parked."

"On the west coast, there are enough food and fresh water reserves on the ship, we can just set off directly."

Nia led them to the west coast, but there was always a weird feeling lingering in her heart.

Why did this guy named Rhodes unknowingly occupy the position of the action leader, as if he couldn't help but follow his actions.

I was the one who invited the two of them, right!

In this strange atmosphere, the group arrived at the port on the west coast.

"Let me see, a classic two-masted sailing ship, no special features, just a mediocre work. If I were to design it, I would add a ram in the front, a main gun, and more muzzles on both sides of the ship to increase firepower..."

"Shut up!"

A slap on Gray's head interrupted his endless chatter, and Nia's face turned black.

"It's just a very ordinary ship. You can do it yourself when you have money. Get on board!"

"This woman actually hit her employer..."

Gray rubbed his head, muttered a few words in a low voice, and followed them on the ship obediently.

"Set sail!"
