Chapter 122 Your Face Should Be Smaller
The Gospel had just sailed into the Seven Waters Capital when a group of people hurried over from a distance.
The leader is a man with purple oily hair and a striped suit. Behind him are a female secretary with a hot body and plump lips and a group of shipwrights with hammers and saws hanging on their waists.
"It's the mayor of Iceberg and the boatmen of Carrera!"
"Good evening, Mayor Bingshan."
When the surrounding citizens saw this group of people approaching, they greeted these people warmly and showed great respect.

"You too, good evening."
The oil-headed man at the head smiled and waved to the surrounding citizens. After the enthusiasm of the crowd dissipated a little, he led the people to stand respectfully on both sides of the waterway and bowed to the Gospel Cruiser approaching from a distance.
As a pirate force recognized by the World Government, the Shichibukai have the so-called legal right to plunder - that is, the Shichibukai can plunder any town, and as long as they pay enough taxes, they will not be held accountable.
Therefore, except for those islands in the New World that have the flags of the Four Emperors planted on the city walls, indicating that they are islands protected by the Four Emperors, most of the other islands and towns, no matter how prosperous and powerful they are, have to show respect after hearing that His Majesty the Shichibukai is coming. A welcoming attitude will prevent you from suffering more losses due to poor hospitality.
Bingshan obviously had such a plan, so after hearing the report from his subordinates, he came directly with all the employees of Carrera Shipyard:
"Welcome, Your Majesty the King Shichibukai."
A uniform voice sounded at Pier 3 of the Capital of Seven Waters, attracting the attention of passers-by.
"The man at the head is the Bingshan Mayor of the Seven Waters Capital. I heard that he is a very capable and gentle mayor. As for the people behind him, they should be shipwrights from the Carrera Shipyard.
Carrera Company is the shipbuilding company of Iceberg and the most famous team of shipbuilders in the world. They must be some very powerful characters. "
Robin appeared right behind Aoun and introduced the identities of Bingshan and others for Aoun.
Aoun obviously knew these people very well, but he still secretly patted Robin's hand and smiled at her:
"For your trouble."
After saying this, he jumped onto the road on both sides of the waterway and showed a polite smile towards the iceberg not far away:
"You don't have to be so polite, Mayor Bingshan. I came to the Seven Waters Capital just to upgrade my ship and relax here with my crew."
Bingshan obviously didn't expect Aoun, the mysterious new Shichibukai, to be so easy to talk to. However, after all, he had been the mayor for many years, so there was nothing strange on his face. He just walked up with a smile and was very warm. He opened his arms and hugged Aoun:
"If you want to upgrade your boat, then you have come to the right place. Just leave this matter to us at Carrera Shipbuilding Company, and you can rest assured that you will be satisfied.
I have to say that you came at the right time. The next few days happen to be our Mask Carnival in the Capital of Seven Waters.
In addition, I have already made arrangements for you and your crew members’ next daily necessities such as food, clothing, housing and transportation. If you are dissatisfied with anything, you can contact me in time. "
As he spoke, he turned to look at the secretary behind him.
The blond secretary wearing an ol' skirt and a frigid face came over immediately. While holding on to his glasses, he took out a phone bug from his arms:
"Lord Aoun, my name is Kalifa, and I am Mr. Bingshan's secretary. If you are dissatisfied with the itinerary we have prepared for you, you can contact me and I will be responsible for helping you solve any troubles."
Kalifa frowned slightly as she spoke. From the corner of her eye, she followed Orn's line of sight and subconsciously glanced at a figure not far behind her with bandaged arms and a dove standing on her shoulders. superior.
Noticing the slightly trembling figure of the man, Kalifa couldn't help but feel huge waves in her heart.
Is the guy who seriously injured Lu Qi last time actually the man in front of him? No wonder Lu Qi refused to tell them about the previous mission no matter what.
After all, Kalifa is the most thoughtful person in CP9. After experiencing a moment of panic, she immediately showed a professional smile again and looked at Ornn and asked:
"Mr. Aoun, are you interested in the store behind me? If you are interested, I can help you..."
Before she finished speaking, Aoun suddenly turned back to look at Robin on the Gospel and said:
"Robin, look at this guy."
While speaking, he ignored Kalifa, walked to Lu Qi's side, pointed at his face and asked Robin:
"Do you think this guy looks like the same person?"
Uh-huh!
In an instant, everyone present turned their attention to the faces of Robin and Lu Qi.
Robin looked at Aoun, knowing that he was trying to stand up for her. While he felt warm in his heart, he didn't want Aoun to offend the people of the World Government too much because of him, so he just smiled and said perfunctorily:
"Yes, I don't remember it anymore."
"Isn't it like that idiot who dared to trouble you last time?"
Aoun felt Rob Luqi's trembling figure, and looked at Robin with a brighter smile.
"That happened a long time ago. I didn't pay attention to it at all. How could I possibly remember what he looked like?"
After realizing that Robin had no intention of pursuing the case, Lu Qi felt that his identity might be exposed at any time, so he used ventriloquism to control the pigeon on his shoulder and said:
"This, my lord, you may have mistaken the person. I am just a boatman and have almost never left the Seven Waters City. How could I possibly offend this lady on your boat?"
The other boatmen who didn't know what was going on at the side also had the courage to excuse Lu Qi.
"That's right, Lord Shichibukai, Lu Qi is a weirdo. Even if your crew members are all dressed up like Kalifa, they are super ignorant..."
The foreman named Barry glanced at Robin's short skirt and Rhea's hot pants, and almost said the words "shameless", but Kaku on the side covered his mouth in time:
"In short, Lu Qi will not do such a bastard thing, otherwise, our Carrera Company will not tolerate him."
Aoun stared at Kaku for a few seconds, until he felt a little nervous, and then he said:
"What you said does make some sense, and if you look closely, this guy's face seems to be smaller than the annoying guy at the beginning. Maybe I really saw it wrong."
This was obviously a way that only he and Lu Qi could understand, mocking Lu Qi for his swollen face. Lu Qi was so angry that he was shaking all over, but he couldn't show it because of the mission, so he could only tighten his grip silently. Fist, secretly thinking something like "Don't let me catch the chance in your lifetime".
"Mayor Bingshan, we leave our ship to you. Don't let me down."
Aoun reminded Bingshan again, but kept looking in Lu Qi's direction.
Rather than reminding the iceberg, it was more like warning Lu Qi not to do anything to their ship.
…………
After watching Carrera's people tow the Gospel away, Aoun looked back at his crew, thought for a while and asked directly:
"What are your plans? Go shopping together or separate?"
"Let's separate. I and a few old gentlemen are responsible for purchasing supplies and the like." Payton suggested. Although he always said that he would leave the Orn Pirates if he didn't get enough training, in fact, everything on the ship was daily. Trivial matters are his top priority.
"Then I'll follow along." Ulki hurriedly responded.
Although he had just boarded the ship not long ago, he had already vaguely noticed that the captain had a close relationship with the two girls on the ship. This made him admire Ornn's superb skills, but at the same time he could not bear the loneliness and wanted to take this opportunity. Discuss and exchange experiences with technicians in Qinghai.
As a monk who breaks the precepts, he breaks more than just the precepts of killing...
As for Rhea, although she made it clear about the captain and his two best friends, she didn’t really want to create opportunities for Orn, so she naturally put her arms around Yamato and Robin’s waists and gave them a hug:
"Then let's go exchange for some gold, and then go visit the fashion stores in the Capital of Seven Waters."
Of course, Aoun couldn't say much about this, he just secretly thought in his heart that if there was a chance later, he should match up Rhea and Peyton, so as not to interfere with his good deeds every day.
In this way, the members of the Orn Pirates divided into two groups and started their journey to the water city.
Aoun, who followed the three Rhea girls through many clothing stores, could clearly feel that during the shopping process, various eyes would fall on them from time to time.
Regarding this, Aoun remained calm on his face, but he secretly kept an eye on it in his heart, vaguely looking forward to finding an opportunity to have a good chat with these guys who were watching him secretly.
Lu Qi and others had already seen his appearance, so they definitely didn't dare to spy on him anymore, but they couldn't simply give up monitoring him.
So there will definitely be guys "who I haven't seen" who will be sent to monitor me.
In this capital of seven waters, who is the CP9 member whose true face he has not yet seen?
The answer is of course Bruno, the Gate Fruit user!
To be honest, if possible, Ornn really wants to kill him directly and use his Gate Fruit to create a legendary equipment such as Any Gate.
But the problem is that he has finally become a Shichibukai. Killing Bruno inexplicably may attract the attention of the World Government, so Bruno cannot be killed yet.
"We can only get some of Bruno's essence and blood as interest first. It just so happens that the Moving Castle still lacks the fixed-point portal in the movie. With his essence and blood to sign the portal contract, the fixed-point portal can be put on the agenda as soon as possible.
When the time comes, I will arrange a portal in the West Sea, Sky Island, New World, and my future power. It will be more convenient when I want to deal with various things. "
