Pirates: Start the vampire fruit, rescue the empress

This dress is too expensive!

Even if you sell her, you can only buy three pieces...

So, she hurriedly said in a stammering tone:

"My lord... this... is too expensive!

Or, should I buy something cheaper? "

"It's okay, I think this dress is okay!

Why don't you try it instead? " Sephiroth said with a smile.

"Yeah! Miss, try it first? If it doesn't fit, change to another one."

Saying that, the proprietress took the girl's hand, walked into the changing room, and closed the door.

Seeing that she couldn't refuse, the black Maria had no choice but to change into this black low-cut, off-the-shoulder kimono after a few minutes with the help of the proprietress.

"How...? Does it look good?"

As soon as the girl came out of the changing room, she stood on Sephiroth, and she turned around slightly.

Looking at the snow-white shoulders of the black Maria, the delicate collarbone, and the deep snowy gully, he subconsciously nodded and said:

"Not bad! Very good, I like it!"

"Really!?"

Hearing this, the girl couldn't help jumping for joy, with a sweet smile on her face.

Next, under the persuasion of the proprietress and Sephiroth, the black Maria bought two more clothes of different colors, spending a total of 80 gold.

When leaving, at the request of Sephiroth, the girl didn't put back on her worn-out kimono, but directly put on the black low-cut and off-the-shoulder dress.

After leaving the clothing store, the two walked a further distance before entering a large yard and arriving at the door of a room.

After the black Maria unlocked the door with the key, she pushed the door open and walked in.

The furnishings inside are very simple. In the room with tatami mats, there are only three large cabinets and some commonly used pots and pans.

Black Maria doesn't have many things to pack, just some odds and ends, such as shamisen, hairpins, and a black and white spider puppet...?

"You like spiders...?" Sephiroth asked inexplicably.

While packing the things with furoshiki, Black Maria replied subconsciously:

"Yeah! I've liked it since I was a child..."

"Oh!"

Sephiroth nodded, a thoughtful look on his face.

It suddenly occurred to him that the devil fruit of the animal family has its own will and will choose a suitable owner.

Is this a coincidence, or is it some kind of fate...?

Did the spider fruit, the ancient species, the devil fruit in the form of the ancient tarantula Gerrard's rose, have already confirmed that he would meet Black Maria, a match with a high compatibility with the fruit itself, and thus appear in his place in advance? hands, waiting for the time to come...?

After Black Maria packed up her things, she went to the door of a room in the courtyard and knocked lightly on the door.

Boom!Boom!Boom!

"Who! It's early in the morning...I'm drinking happily!...Just knock on the door..."

Following the sound of a man cursing, the door of the room went "Bang!", and was slammed open from the inside.

A man with a cockscomb head and dyed yellow hair appeared in front of the two of them with a bottle of wine in his hand.

"Good morning, Mr. Pinghao, I'm here to return the key...

Thank you for your care during this time! "

The black Maria bowed slightly, and handed the key in her hand to Pinghao.

Pinghao hiccupped and said with a smirk:

"Hi! It's Maria!

Yesterday, you said that you will soon be unable to pay the rent.

Actually, you don't need to rush to check out... If you don't have any money, you can owe it first!

Even, I can lend you some more..."

"No, thank you Mr. Pinghao for your kindness! I have already found a job and a place to live..." Black Maria said politely.

Hearing this, Ping Hao opened his drunken eyes wide and looked at the blonde girl.

He found that the other party's clothes had already taken on a new look, and beside him stood a handsome, well-dressed black-haired young man with two knives pinned to his waist.

Ping Hao thought about it for a while, and seemed to understand something. He reached out and took the key, and said in a slightly regretful tone:

"Really? Then you are really lucky!"

Listening to the yellow-haired man's words, Sephiroth frowned subconsciously.

Why do I feel that this guy has a deep malice towards Black Maria...

He first looked at the yellow hair on Pinghao's head, and then at the girl's alluring and beautiful face.

Inexplicably, he thought of a certain plot...

"Let's go!"

The corners of Sephiroth's eyes twitched slightly, feeling uneasy for a while.

So, he grabbed the white and tender little hand of the black Maria, and quickly left the yard.

but......

What Sephiroth doesn't know is that Pinghao's malice is not simply coveting the girl's beauty, but coveting the surplus value that can be extracted from the girl...

Pinghao and two other guys named Fenye and Fan Gang.

Recently, the three got together and came up with a way to make a fortune and use arson to make a lot of money!

The three of them will inspect and select the target of the arson in advance. After the target's house is burned down, Fang Gang, who sells the wood for house reconstruction, will come to the door quickly to sell the wood.

On the other hand, Pinghao is in charge of usury and house rental. If someone can't repay the money, he will forcefully collect it, or force the other party to sell their sons and daughters...

After this set of operations, the victims will basically be transferred into the trap unconsciously, ranging from loss of money to loss of family and family!

A few months ago, a fire broke out in Black Maria's house, which was the result of the planning of the three of them.

Originally, Pinghao was about to squeeze out all the remaining value of Black Maria and achieved his goal.

Unexpectedly, there were twists and turns and was cut off by Sephiroth!

Regarding this, Ping Hao didn't hold a grudge too much, at worst, he just went to find the next victim...

............

On the way back to the veranda, Sephiroth suddenly turned his head and said to the blond girl who was still holding his little hand:

"Maria, why don't you be my personal attendant in the future?...OK?"

Hearing this, a look of joy suddenly appeared on Black Maria's face, she nodded repeatedly and said:

"Okay, my lord!"

The girl knew very well in her heart that her own appearance was a good choice, coupled with some talent, as long as she was willing to work hard, there was no problem in becoming a geisha, and she shouldn't directly become a prostitute.

but......

Even if she becomes a geisha, or even an oiran, her best destination is to be redeemed and marry a rich man with a big belly as a concubine.

As for being a regular wife...it's basically impossible!

After all, in the high society of Wano Country, marrying a woman from the Fengyue place as a concubine is called elegant, but if you marry as a regular wife, it is reduced to a joke!

Black Maria knew very well that if she became Sephiroth's personal attendant, it meant that she would not need to become a prostitute and accompany guests in the veranda in the future.

Of course, she is very happy about it!

In fact, Black Mary also has her own little plan in her heart...

If she serves Sephiroth well and wins the favor of the other party, maybe she can succeed in taking the position!

Chapter 198

Wano country, Ebisu village.

The setting sun is like blood, and the bright red fire clouds are rolling in the sky, reflecting the whole land in bright red.

In such beautiful scenery, Yebisu Village is full of chilling flavor...

One by one, armed with swords, murderous figures walked down the spacious bluestone steps from the south exit of the capital of flowers, and gathered in this village one after another. Roughly, there were more than 300 people.

The villagers living in Yebisu Village were all scared and hid in their houses after seeing these unkind people.

Although this village is next to the capital of flowers, it is a place where the poor gather, and it is a place abandoned by Heitan Orochi...

The villagers can only rely on their hard-earned meager wages every day to buy the leftovers transported from the capital of flowers, barely making ends meet.

In addition, the laws of the Flower City will not protect these poor people in Yebisu Village, whether they are alive or dead, the government will not care...

In other words, this is a lawless zone with no control!

Therefore, in order to reduce unnecessary troubles, Sephiroth chose to make an appointment with the Black Horse family here...

Among the crowd, Xin Bingwei approached a middle-aged man with beards, a big nose, and a scar on his right cheek. He pointed to the exit of the south gate of the Capital of Flowers, and whispered:

"Boss, they are here!"

Hearing this, Heiju turned his head immediately and looked towards the exit of the Capital of Flowers.

On the spacious bluestone stairs, Sephiroth led the tense-looking Kuma Goro and the camel to the place where more than 300 people were.

Seeing this scene, Heiju couldn't help frowning, and a somewhat absurd idea came to his mind.

Could it be...these three guys are going to fight more than 300 of them?

3vs326?

"My name is Heiju Qinfen, the boss of the Heiju family...
