Chapter: 9

In one Piece As A Pirate

Chapter: 9

1500 years. South Blue. Roshwan Kingdom.

In the evening, Rood returned to the base camp with little disappointment. Rood searched a lot of weapon shops. But he didn't like any of these weapons.

Rood went to everyone and asked what he liked to add to our new ship and make a list.

A watch tower [Five Brothers]

Big kitchen. [Mokume]

Strong mast and sail [K. Kish]

A prison. [Duke]

After taking money. The four of them went to the shipyard.

"Okay, I understand your plan. I will add according to this plan." Worg looked at the plan for a while and assured the four people in front of him.

"How long will it take?" Rood asked while giving Worg 20 million bellies.

"It will take at least one and a half months." Worg replied after calculating how many men he has.

After they left the shipyard, they went to the bar, sat on a random chair, and ordered some rum. Zamp says that it will take time to make wine, so they had to come to the bar.

"Rood, I need some assistance in the kitchen. After the crazy exercise, everyone's consumption has increased a lot." Mokume put his opinion on the table.

"When will we robe the arrogant rich people?" Duke asked while looking at Rood.

K. Kish didn't say anything. Right now, he is reading a book called Advanced Navigation.

"You know, we can't just recruit anyone we see on the road; wait a little bit, and we will try to find some assistants for you. As for robbing Rich, after we get a good ship, I will tell you about the specific plans." Rood told them to wait a little longer.

At this moment, a commotion broke out outside the bar. Two gunshots were fired just now. A group of people walked into the bar and went straight to the waitress, who was serving wine.

"Did you find those people?" the leader of those people asks the waitress. But the waitress didn't say anything.

"What about the money?" the waitress replied with a question.

"Here is your money. Now tell us what you know." The leader was trying to complete his job.

After checking the amount, her expression changed a little. "This amount isn't enough for that information," she said, then threw the bag at the leader.

"Well, Boss said that he would personally come to pay that amount of money." The leader gave the bag to the waitress while laughing like a pervert. After taking the money, the waitress didn't say anything; she just pointed her finger at the Roods pirates.

The leader looked in the direction and saw four people sitting there and drinking rum without giving him any face.

"Hey, grab those four people; the boss needs them." The leader instructed his subordinate and point towards the Rood Pirates.

When those people entered the bar about 3 minutes ago, K. Kish saw that the waitress was staring at them. So, he already reported his suspiciousness to his captain.

"Who is the leader?" A subordinate came and asked the Rood Pirates. Rood, Mokume, and K. Kish point their fingers at Duke, who was in a half-sleep state, according to the plan that Rood made.

"Hey kid, wake up. Let's go to meet our boss. "When they saw that the leader was sleeping. They try to wake him up.

When Duke woke up and saw that, a boy asked him to go to their boss. Duke looked in the direction of Rood. Who was smiling like a thousand-year-old fox. So, he didn't get angry; he just agreed to their request. And start walking in the direction they are taking him as the leader of the gang.

Rood was very proud to see that his friend's acting skills were very good. After 20 minutes, they came to a large, slum-like place. There is only one building, which may be the place they were about to go.

After arriving inside the place, they can see that a man is sitting on a large chair, not on a throne or something. They may be very poor.

"You must be the infamous ...?"That person wants to say Duke's name, but the problem is he doesn't know the name, so he got stuck in the middle.

"It's Duke." Duke gave his real name while acting as a leader.

"Duke, okay, I heard that you're quite a good hunter. You killed pirates some time ago and got some bounty money from the Navy." That person on the chair wants to be confirmed again.

"Yes. We were the ones who got those bounty moneys." Duke made a statement about what they did and was waiting for that guy to reveal his intentions.

"To find you guys, I have spent 20 million bellies. So, you guys must work for me for something. I can cover for you guys in this kingdom. You guys don't have to hide anymore."

"I am king of this slum. People call me Wolf. Also, a lot of bounty hunters work for me here. They just need to offer me some percentage as a protection fee." Seeing that Rood didn't get angry, Duke continued his conversation with this wolf guy.

"You said that you needed us for something. What is it?" Duke gets to the point and asks for his purposes.

Wolf signals his man. After a few talks, all the people present here went out of the house. Only six close subordinates are left.

"I need you guys to go on an adventure with me." Wolf states his purposes. hearing what the wolf said. Rood's face changes a little, and he wants to hear more details.

Duke is also the same. He showed the wolf his greedy, hungry expression. "Can you tell us some more details?" Duke said this while showing off his acting skills.

"We will leave tomorrow. You gather your men. And if you don't show up at the main port tomorrow, heh heh heh heh. Don't even think about it. Although you can hide from me, if something unexpected happens, you won't be able to get out of the Navy's hands." Wolf didn't disclose any more information.

"Okay, we will gather at the main port of the kingdom." Duke didn't say anything. And left with Roods and others.

The four walk all the way to the main base. The moment they reached here. Duke Rood started to fight. Some new crew members went to Mokume and K.Kish to ask what happened. After some punches, Roods calls everyone to the meeting room. Which is the captain's cabin.

After knowing what happened in the slum, the other crew didn't react much. It's like they have some confidence, but nobody can tell what their confidence is just by looking at their face.

"I think that guy Wolf has some connections with the Navy. So the threat is a bounty. Although I am not afraid of getting a bounty, he still doesn't know that we are pirates. He thinks that we are some bounty hunters." Roods shared his opinion.

"I don't know what adventure he was talking about." Duke sighs while thinking about his acting skills.

"I think he wants us to fight with him on some other island." K. Kish also thought about what work that wolf guy usually could do.

"I think he doesn't trust all of his subordinates," Hazel thought after hearing the story.

"Whatever the adventure is, that guy has already threatened us, so there is only one way for him. That is death." Roods holds his grip on his sword while thinking of his unpleasant day.

"So, what's the plan?" Zamp asked while thinking about what would happen.

"Very simple. We will go with the flow. Until we kill that guy, and if you guys see my right-hand signal, don't think much; just return to the ship and scape." "K. Kish will be on the boat. Your job is just to reach the boat after my signal. No matter what." Rood said it with seriousness.

"Remember, now our target is not to win some competition. But to survive, we need every single strength we have."

After the meeting, they all went to their respective jobs. 

"That adventure is the only way to kill that guy without any commotion. I think the wolf may have eaten some kind of devil fruit. Otherwise, why is he confident in his speech."Roods looked at four people and expressed his doubt.
