One Piece: The Long Road

Vol 3 Chapter 20: Set off

Helpless, I was really frightened when I saw an evaluation vote. First of all, I would like to thank the classmates of Huozao for their precious vote. After all, it is the first vote in the past, and it is of great significance.

Because, I have written nearly 20W words, but the clicks and recommendations are not very good, and no one has commented. Sometimes I see a lot of other people's comments, and I can't help but envy, but the most important thing is that my book is too bland. ,Ha ha.

Then according to the wishes of the classmates, it will not be a good thing to change today, woo...T_T!

---------------

Unfamiliar with Nahana Simon, he simply let Alex take the lead and headed to the store where he needed to buy supplies.

On the way, Simon listened to Alex's brief introduction to the desert while walking. He had a basic understanding of the desert and was surprised that the desert was indeed a wonderful place.

The first place Alex came to was a shop selling camels. This shop was very simple. Except for the place where the counter was set up, there was a canopy to cover it. The rest were open-air fences, and there was one in each fence. Looks like a very healthy camel.

Simon is no stranger to camels. In his previous life, he often saw the pattern of a camel on a cigarette case, and the camel in the kingdom of Alabasta is basically no different from the camel on the earth. Just in the introduction of Alex just now, Simon Knowing that camels can play a big role in traversing the desert.

After a few glances at the camels in the fence, Simon lost interest and turned to look at Alex, who was fiercely bargaining with the boss. Simon, who took a few glances, could clearly see that in this bargaining It was clear that Alex had the upper hand.

The middle-aged boss wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. The bargaining skills of the little boy in front of him were so terrifying that he, who had been fighting for a long time, secretly clucked his tongue.

"Okay, okay, according to your opinion, I will be at a loss." The boss finally couldn't bear it, and raised the white flag in his hand to surrender.

Although the price has been cut very low, it has not yet reached a state of loss, and there will still be some profit.

Seeing the boss surrender, Alex proudly looked at Simon, who was beside him, walked over to lead the camel, and then motioned for the latter to pay with his eyes.

Ignoring Alex's smug look, Simon glanced at the camel's state, nodded with satisfaction, and then reached out to his pocket to take money, but he didn't want to touch it. At this time, he remembered that he didn't bring any money. Yes, I also forgot to ask Dusky for the money.

After a stalemate for a while, Simon took his hand out of his pocket, looked at Alex calmly, and asked, "Are you rich?"

Alex shook his head. After buying the knife, there was not much money left, and he used it to buy a set of clothes. Hearing Simon's question, he couldn't help asking: "What's the matter?"

"It's nothing." Simon frowned slightly, thinking about how to get the money.

"Could it be that there is no money?" Seeing that Simon didn't take out the money and then threw such a question, Alex couldn't help but wonder, but when he saw Simon's calmness at this time, he rejected it.

When the boss on the side saw Simon's delay in paying, he thought that it would not be a temporary change of mind, and he was not satisfied with the price?

"Well, shouldn't the guest not be satisfied with the price?" The boss was also deceived by Simon's calm look, and he never thought that the guest would have no money.

"No." Simon shook his head, and this reaction suddenly puzzled Alex and the boss.

"I have no money on me." Simon said lightly.

"What?!" The boss was stupid, while Alex was looking at Simon with a calm face, he had a lot of knowledge today.

"Wait for me, I'll go get the money." Simon left the store after leaving a sentence. He wanted to get the money as soon as possible. After thinking about it, there was only one way, and that was to borrow from those gangsters.

As soon as Simon walked out, the boss looked at the stunned Alex vigilantly, and snatched the rope in Alex's hand at a speed exceeding the speed of light.

In this regard, Alex can only return a wry smile. He really did not expect that a generous person who gave him the money did not bring it with him. He even thought that maybe he did not bring it when he was fighting for poppies in the weapons store. in the case of money.

After a while, Simon walked in under the suspicious eyes of the boss, threw the purse in his hand to Alex, and said, "See if it's enough, I'll wait for you outside." After speaking, he walked out again.

Taking the purse that Simon threw over, Alex was stunned for a moment, because the weight in the purse was not light, and he was surprised that Simon got the money from there, but he was not slow in his hand, and smiled all over his face. In front of the boss, counted enough money and handed it to the boss, then took the rope tied with the camel and walked out.

"Where did you get the money?" As soon as Alex walked out of the store, he saw Simon and asked directly. For the money, he spent a lot of effort to get nearly 300,000, but Simon just went out like this I got a hundred thousand at once.

"Borrowed, buy all the materials you need as soon as possible, so you can leave quickly." Simon, who didn't want to get entangled in this issue, ordered.

Seeing that Simon didn't want to talk, Alex didn't want to ask questions, so he responded and organized it.

In fact, the money was taken by Simon from an "acquaintance". As soon as Simon, who wanted to make money, went out of the store, he saw the two people who were robbed by Alex in the alley last time. So they went up and said that they were short of money, and when the two saw Simon, they nodded and bowed their heads. The first shot was hundreds of thousands, which surprised Simon. Not long ago, they took more than 200,000, and this time they can still get it. out of hundreds of thousands.

After tossing around the street for a while with Alex leading the camel, and relying on Alex's terrifying bargaining efforts, the procurement of materials was finally completed, that is, some necessary drinking water, dry food and some practical sundries,

Simon saw that he was almost ready and set off immediately.

As soon as he stepped out of the city of Nahana, Simon realized what kind of place the desert was.

Everywhere you look is monotonous yellow, except for sand and dunes, you can't see other colors at all, the temperature of the sun is extremely high, the sun is wanton sprinkled on the sand, and even the air is distorted, The scene in the distance was a little blurry.

Since the supplies were placed on the camel's body, no one could sit at all, so Simon and Alex could only walk. After a few hours of monotonous walking, Simon found that there was no change except sand or sand on the road.

Simon looked at Alex with a normal face, and couldn't help being a little surprised. Relying on the ability to restore fruit, Simon didn't feel very hard, but what he didn't expect was that this little boy who looked like he was only eight or nine years old could actually face I walked in the desert for a few hours without changing my color.

"Alex, how old are you?" After walking dully for a few hours, Simon opened the conversation first.

"Eleven years old." Alex, who was leading the camel, replied casually.

"I can't see it." Simon said.

"Hmph." Alex couldn't refute Simon's words at all, and said angrily: "Anyway, it's an iron-clad eleven-year-old."

"Oh." Simon nodded, then looked at Poppy, who had been in Alex's hands since he set off from Nahana, "Are you going to hold this knife all the time?"

"Well~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Alex responded, squeezed the poppy in his arms, and explained in a low voice: "My father once said that the knife is his closest partner, and if he wants to communicate with him, he will You have to consider the knife as part of yourself. "

"Communicate with the knife?" Simon shook his head, disbelieving what Alex said.

"Don't believe it, I once heard Poppy's voice!" Alex saw Simon's disbelief, and it was not surprising.

Communication with the sword itself is an incredible thing. Before you really come into contact with it, if you ask any famous swordsman, you will probably laugh with disdain, so Alex is not surprised by Simon's disbelief.

"You said you heard the sound of the knife?" Simon was very curious about what Alex said, "Can you tell me?"

"Uh..." Alex smiled embarrassedly, "It's a bit exaggerated to say that I heard it. I'm not as powerful as my father, but I can feel Poppy's mood." As he spoke, Alex's expression darkened. " But now I can't feel it."

"Does the knife also have a soul... can you communicate with it?" Seeing that Alex didn't seem to be bragging, Simon chose to believe it, and was suddenly a little shocked. He whispered in a voice that only he could hear, and then looked at his face. With a sad expression, Alex, it seems that this knife named Poppy is very important to him.

Simon decisively changed the subject, "Is your father very powerful? You seem to admire him very much."

As soon as he mentioned his father, Alex's sullen expression suddenly disappeared, and his expression turned bright. He saw his eyes light up and said excitedly: "Of course, my father is the most powerful person I have ever met!"

"Really, what a powerful method." Simon looked at Alex, who was excited, and smiled slightly, after all, he was still a child.
