Without changing her face, Xia Qi said calmly, "No, they are the employees of my store, the waiter Jiang Liu and the porter Lulu."

"Porter? This kid?" Luffy pointed at Lulu in surprise.

"Don't look at Lulu's young age, she is very capable."

Xia Qi turned to pointing at the tall man with a strange appearance, and introduced to Jiang Liu: "Speaking of which, you haven't seen Xiaoba... He has known me since I was a child, he is an old acquaintance, I also have friendship with that Rayleigh guy."

"Hi, just call me Xiao Ba." The tall man straightened up, his manner slightly restrained.

Jiang Liu didn't take it seriously, he knew that the reason why the other party looked weird was because of the cross-dressing, Xiao Ba was actually a murloc of the octopus family, and this time he came to the island specially dressed as a human.

After all, the Chambord Islands are not a friendly place to murlocs.

"Beside him are his friends Kemi and Papak. I believe you can see that Xiaoba and Kemi are not human."

"I know." Jiang Liu nodded, "Compared to this, I'm more curious about the starfish. Are there any murlocs of this type?"

The orange starfish Papak said helplessly: "I am indeed a starfish, but it's just special."

Xia Qi then introduced: "The one over here is——"

"The Straw Hat Pirates, Captain Monkey D. Luffy, right?"

"Hey, do you know me?" Luffy pointed to himself in surprise.

"You guys are quite famous." Jiang Liu sat down, "After all, just a year after debut, there was a bounty of [-] million Baileys, which is extremely rare even in this age of great voyages."

"What about me, what about me!"

A small animal wearing a red hat jumped up: "Am I famous?"

This is a round and cute creature with reindeer horns and a blue nose, but its body and limbs are humanoid, and its height is that of a child.

Chopper, a reindeer who ate the fruit of human beings, but has human abilities as an animal, is also the mascot of the Straw Hats and emergency food (laughs).

"It's quite famous in a sense." Jiang Liu nodded subtly.

It is indeed famous, after all, among a bunch of crew members who have offered a reward of at least tens of millions, it is impossible for a "coin" level to appear...not conspicuous.

Both Luffy and Chopper are more nervous, or rather childish types, and they soon chatted with Jiang Liu familiarly.

Listening to them telling interesting stories along the way, Jiang Liu couldn't help being fascinated. After all, it is absolutely impossible for them to tell more real and touching people's hearts in the comics of the previous life.

It's a pity that Luffy's eloquence can only be said to be average. If it is replaced by Usopp, it will definitely be more exciting...but the credibility will also be compromised.

By the way, Lulu seems to like Chopper, mainly because he thinks his antlers and fur are very interesting.

"Having said that, we have been waiting here for so long, and the craftsman still hasn't come back."

Brooke, a musician with only bones and an afro head left, said: "Miss Xia Qi's boiled beans are delicious. I don't mind waiting any longer, but will the companions on the boat be anxious?"

"Ah, by the way, we are here to find a coating craftsman!"

Luffy was taken aback for a moment, as if he just remembered what he was here for.

"Obasan, when will the craftsman come back?"

"Him? It's possible at any time, but it's been a month since I came back last time." Xia Qi said with a smile.

"what?!"

Luffy, Chopper, and Brook all opened their mouths.

"One month?!"

"After all, he is a restless person, and he is also a bad habit from his youth. If you want to find him, you can either find him in a casino or in a tavern.

Xiaoba, are you in a hurry? "

"Well, as you know, this island is still for Kemi and me...if possible, we still want to leave early." Xiaoba, the murloc, was faintly worried.

On the other hand, Cammy also became depressed, and his expression became gloomy.

"Then there's nothing we can do. Instead of waiting here, it's better to go out and look for it." Xia Qi said to Jiang Liu, "Anyway, there aren't many customers coming to the bar at this time, so you can be a tour guide and take them to look for it."

"No problem." Jiang Liu smiled, "I probably know where he will go, it's nothing more than repeating the old trick and selling himself to pay off the gambling debts."

Chapter 76: Premonition

Coating craftsman, this is a special occupation that only exists in the Chambord Islands.

Generally speaking, after completing the first half of the great voyage, no matter which route you choose at the beginning, you will eventually come to the Chambord Islands, and then encounter an insurmountable geographical barrier—the red earth continent.

Only by crossing the Red Earth Continent can one reach the second half of the great route, which is often referred to as the "New World".

But there is a problem here, that is how to cross the red earth continent?

If it is a normal merchant ship, then you only need to submit an application to the world government, and there is no obstacle, but what about groups such as smugglers, pirates, and slave traders?

Of course, it is impossible for them to surrender to the world government. For them, there are only two ways to go to the new world.

One is to abandon the original ship and buy a new one after crossing the Red Earth Continent.

The second is to venture into the deep sea, use the legendary fish-man island as a transfer point, and sneak across the gap in the red earth continent.

As for the second path, one needs to reach the Fishman Island, which is [-] meters below the seabed.

Ordinary boats naturally can't do this, even a special submarine can't resist the terrifying water pressure, which is an absolute dead end, but the Creator is so magical, there is a solution on the Chambord Islands approach to this problem.

That is "coating".

The "bubbles" on the Chambord Islands are actually special resins secreted by mangroves, which can be used in many places after a little processing by humans.

Although I don't know the reason, but if the entire hull is wrapped with specially treated resin, it can avoid being crushed by water pressure, and can sail freely in the deep sea.

It should be known that in the deep sea below [-] meters, no matter how powerful you are, once you are exposed to water pressure, you will instantly turn into meat paste, so even the brave pirates will not be negligent in coating the ship main idea.

Mastering this kind of skill, coating craftsmen naturally become very precious talents, and the employment price is also extremely high.

Raleigh could have made a living by his craft, but he was reduced to the point of "selling himself". It can only be said that some people are not born to follow the rules.

"Yo Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho~"

"Hahahaha!"

"Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

Magical laughter and screams mixed together, and there was a cheerful atmosphere on the whizzing roller coaster.

That's right, Jiang Liu was supposed to lead Luffy and the others to find Rayleigh, but how could people like Luffy be obedient?

All in all, I was attracted by the amusement park just halfway there, and a few kid-like guys jumped into it instantly, forgetting about finding a coating craftsman.

Jiang Liu always kept his business in mind, but he couldn't bear to have a little girl by his side, looking at Lulu's big watery eyes, he couldn't bear to refuse her request, so he had to stay in the amusement park.

Then--

so fun!

Jiang Liu, who rarely had a chance to relax, had a good time this time, and experienced all kinds of screaming events.

Oh, and forget about the haunted house.

After entering the haunted house, it was Brook who scared the staff...

"Oh hoo...this place is amazing!"

After riding the roller coaster, Lu Fei, Jiang Liu and others gathered in the open-air coffee shop, all looking unsatisfied.

"When I passed the biggest corner just now, I was so nervous that I thought my heart was going to jump out." Brooke's devilish laughter sounded again, "Although I have only bones and no heart to jump out, yo ho ho Hoho~"

"Let's go over there next, I'm the man who wants to dominate the amusement park, I want to play all the things I haven't played before!" The straw hat boy let out a bold statement, and Jiang Liu was also excited for a moment, but he quickly realized and didn't There was a helpless wry smile.

I always feel that if I continue to get along with Luffy, sooner or later I will be led to a wrong path by him...

On the side, Lulu, who was happily drinking fruit juice, suddenly reached out and tugged at the corner of Jiang Liu's clothes.

"Ok?"

"Look," Lulu said, pointing at Cammy, "Big Sister seems to be crying."

"Ugh?"

"why?"

After being reminded by Lulu, everyone noticed that Kaimi really couldn't help crying.

"I'm sorry... sorry, I didn't control my emotions well."

Kemi covered her mouth and suppressed her voice: "But I'm so happy...this is a dream I've always had...since I was a child.... I didn’t expect it to come true today.”

Starfish Papak and Murloc Xiaoba obviously thought of something, their expressions darkened, but they forced smiles in front of Kaimi.

Luffy, Chopper, and Brook are somewhat inexplicable.

"Do you like amusement parks that much?" Lu Fei scratched his head, "Is it so happy that you cry? I don't understand you."

"Well, there's a deep reason for that."

Jiang Liu sat across from Lu Fei, holding a glass of smoothie in his hand.

He took a look at Xiao Ba and Cammy now, and continued: "Xiao Ba has to hide all his tentacles, Kami has to use a long skirt to cover the tail of the fish, and Papak has to disguise himself as a doll... ..their identities are too sensitive here.

You're human so you don't feel it... This island doesn't welcome murlocs and merfolk. "

"Why?" Luffy asked curiously.

"There are many reasons. For example, the difference in appearance and strength between murlocs and humans will cause the two races to have prejudice against each other, but in the final analysis, it is because of that."

"What is that, don't hold your breath!"

"It's Bailey's power, Luffy."

Jiang Liu smiled slightly: "This island allows slavery by default, and do you know the price of a murloc far stronger than ordinary humans and an extremely rare mermaid at the auction here?"

"Auction...slave?" Luffy's expression became serious, it's hard to imagine that he was still smiling the last second.

"Although the World Government recognizes the existence of Murloc Island, and apparently forbids the capture of Murlocs as slaves, but in reality, what?"

Jiang Liu didn't continue talking, but turned his attention to Xiaoba and Kaimi.

"If the discrimination against the murlocs and the slave trade have really been eliminated, then you don't need to be cautious about pretending."

Xiao Ba laughed: "It's nothing, it's just that doing so can reduce some unnecessary troubles."

"Indeed, Xiao Ba is fine, but Kemi is a mermaid!"
