Pirates: The Mechanic of the Straw Hats

Because it was still very early, the market was busy.

The four of them walked side by side on the road. Except for Nami, the other three looked like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. They were extremely curious about everything they looked at.

So much so that Nami wanted to draw a clear line with the three boys for no other reason than it was too embarrassing!

“Luffy, don’t just take other people’s food and eat it!”Carl angrily punched Luffy, but the latter still kept his original actions, holding an apple and chewing it happily, and even handed another one to Carl,”Carl, you eat too, really. Very sweet! Much better than those on the boat!”

“That’s it, I just picked it this morning!”The old man selling apples immediately smiled and continued,”My apples are natural and pollution-free. They are not only big in size, but also good-looking, and they have no other advantages, except that they are sweet.”

Karl took the apple, wiped it, and took a bite. It was indeed quite sweet, but this may also be related to the fact that he hasn’t eaten fresh fruit for a long time.

“How much?”

“Two hundred Baileys each!”The old man stretched out two fingers

“oh? That’s pretty cheap.”Because it was his first time to go to the market, Carl didn’t have much idea about the prices in this world. He only knew that he seemed to be quite rich now. Two hundred beli for an apple was not unacceptable. So I just prepared I picked a few more, only to be interrupted by Nami’s voice.

“Nani? Two hundred beli?!! Nami suddenly raised her voice,”Why don’t you go and grab it?” Everyone sells three Baileys for one hundred, but you are the only one who sells one for two hundred?”

“Is your apple skin made of gold, or are your apple seeds made of gold?”

“you…What do you mean? This is a purely natural and pollution-free high-end apple.”

“I bother! I think you just think that we are not from the town, so you want to take advantage of us, right? Nami hugged her shoulders and looked like she had seen through the truth a long time ago,”It’s a hundred yuan for two, if you sell them, you can sell them, if you don’t sell them, you’ll be thrown out!””

“Not for sale!”When the old man saw that his trick was discovered, his face did not turn red, and his heart did not beat.

“snort! Whether you like to sell or not, I don’t believe you are the only one selling apples in this town!”Nami said, and planned to pull a few people away.

But at this time, the old man was unwilling. He took Luffy’s arm and refused to let him go, and shouted:

“Give me money, two hundred beli for one apple, four hundred for two! You can’t leave without paying!”

“you!!!”Nami was so angry that her silver teeth crunched. You know, she has been at sea for so many years, but she has never eaten an apple worth two hundred Baileys!

“Looking for trouble, right? Then I’ll make trouble with you!”Nami wasn’t afraid at all, she acted like a shrew, stood in front of the stall and started shouting loudly,”Don’t miss it if you pass by, come and take a look!”

“This old man actually dared to sell his apples for two hundred Baileys each!”

“Isn’t this bullying me, a weak woman?”

“I didn’t expect that I would be alone and living in the sea for so long, and I would be bullied even if I eat an apple…..”

“Tsk tsk, did you see that, Luffy, you can’t control this girl!”Seeing Nami’s dramatic appearance, vowing to win an Oscar, Carl said this to Luffy, who looked confused.

“I don’t understand…”

“Sigh… forget it, just know not to eat other people’s food next time! Even though we have money, we can’t be like fools and count the money for others when they are being ripped off.”

“Oh okay, I know.”Luffy nodded obediently.

【I know, I’ll do it again next time, right? 】 Karl silently added the second half of the sentence for him in his heart.

Seeing more and more people surrounding him, the old man knew that he had hit a brick wall today, so he immediately gave in.

As Nami said before, he just saw that these four people were dressed like outsiders and didn’t understand the prices here, so he planned to make a fortune.

But now that the other party has reacted, things are getting bigger and bigger, and he can’t stand it anymore.

Because he is not a local, he just left after the quarrel, and there was no impact at all. But he was different. He still wanted to continue to set up a stall here!

If your reputation is bad….

“Shhhhh, keep your voice down, my aunt! I was wrong. Isn’t it okay that I was wrong?”

“No money, no more money! You go quickly!”

“Humph, fight with me, you are still a little young. When I was wandering around on the street, you were still growing apples at home!”Nami puffed up her chest with a proud look on her face, grabbed two more apples, and floated away through the crowd as the old man blew his beard and glared.

“Here, little fat man, it’s yours!”Nami threw one of them to Kebi, and she took the remaining one and started to chew on it,”There are a lot of people like this, they just like to trick outsiders!”

“So be careful when buying things, be careful not to be ripped off and you won’t even have any clothes left.”

“ah? I think that old man is pretty good!”Luffy said in hindsight, causing the three of them to roll their eyes.

“Then let’s find someone to ask where Sauron is! I can’t wait to see him!”

“Why are you so anxious? In my opinion, let’s find a place to fill our stomachs first! Karl gave a different opinion,”I have to say that the cook on the ship is really bad, and the cooking is terrible.””

“Why not find a restaurant, have a good meal, then go to the bathhouse to take a bath and buy some new sets of clothes?”

“Oh, by the way, I still need to tidy up my hair and find a better barber to style it for me. I really can’t do it when I’m on a desert island.”

“What about Zoro?”Luffy was obviously hesitant and seemed to want to see his next partner as soon as possible.

“It’s not like I won’t go see him, I just said it would be later! Karl explained patiently,”Besides, if you want to get him to join the gang, don’t you first get to know him as a person?” Clean yourself up by the way”

“You can’t go there in such a sloppy way! This leaves a bad first impression on people. Will they be willing to get on the boat with you?”

“That’s right!”Luffy touched his head,”Then listen to Carl, let’s go eat first!”

So, in the next few hours, Karl took the three people to the most exclusive restaurant in town, ordered a table full of delicious dishes, and then bought a few new sets of clothes along the way, and then Went to the bathhouse and took a nice hot bath.

Oh, by the way, of course Nami didn’t follow. She was thinking about it, but when Karl heard that she wanted to untie the collar to prevent the hot water from detonating the explosives in it. After that, he understood what she was thinking, so he decisively rejected the idea and asked her to go to the hotel to discuss business with the businessmen.

After taking a bath, Karl could be said to be refreshed and felt that his whole body was completely clear. Less, even walking becomes much easier.
