Chapter 164 Want to Eat a Free Meal
"Has Jinbei been to Shampoo before?" Zhang Da also asked.
"Of course, I just don't really like the atmosphere here. Your tavern is better." Jinbei glanced at the people who, although they often glanced at him, had gradually resumed chatting and laughing. He felt that these people were much better than those passers-by who were either hostile or fearful after seeing him.
Zhang Da also speculated: "Maybe I've seen too many strange things here, such as a cat that can play the piano and a robot that is very good at chatting. It seems that a fishman is not a big deal."
At this time, the chatty robot said with some anticipation: "Mr. Jinbei, how about testing my fish-man karate?"
"Okay." Jinbei responded, "Then let me see your progress over the past few days."
The two walked towards the courtyard. Zhang Da also looked at the guests in the tavern who were craning their necks to look around, and said, "If you want to see it, you can go to the courtyard and take a look."
The scene that followed could probably be described as a rush of people, without any derogatory meaning, but Zhang Da also felt that the way these people were eager to watch the fun looked very familiar.
Fortunately, there are usually no traps in the tavern when there are people in it during the day, otherwise several people might have been carried out.
Jinbei didn't care that there were people watching the fight, he took a defensive stance and said, "Come on, attack with all your strength."
"Full strength? Then activate the super transformation form!" Shark Chili completed the transformation in an instant, and then clenched his right fist: "Fishman Karate·Five Thousand Watts Punch!"
Shark Chili's transformation always causes cheers. Whether people have seen it or not, they all get excited when they see him transform .
Some people even gave popular science to the people around them: "Mr. Shark Pepper is extremely strong. No one has ever defeated him in an arm wrestling match in the tavern. It is said that his strength will increase several times after he transforms. I wonder if the Seven Warlords of the Sea can withstand him!"
Zhang Da also thought that he could definitely withstand it. This move was very familiar to him. Besides, he was also known for his extraordinary strength. Even in a pure comparison of strength, he was not necessarily worse than Shark Chili.
Sure enough, in order to test the level of Shark Chili, Jinbei crossed his arms in front of him and took the move head-on. He frowned slightly, and the clogs on his feet left two one-foot-long marks on the ground.
"You're as strong as ever." Jinbei, who had probably experienced the power of Shark Pepper before, commented with satisfaction, "Although you still lack some skills, you don't rely solely on brute force like Hodi. You're really talented."
"Thank you Mr. Jinbei for your guidance. While there is still time for transformation, please let me learn more from you!" Before Shark Chili transformed, it was not very convenient for him to train or fight, so he no longer uses the super transformation form carelessly. He always uses the daily transformation time on training. He also doesn't want to miss the opportunity to have Jinbei's guidance this time.
"No problem, just come on!"
The two men fought each other move by move, and every punch and kick carried tremendous power. However, most of the time Jinbe was on the defense while pointing out Shark Pepper 's shortcomings, and the occasional attack was actually more like a demonstration of standard moves.
Bang! Bang!
The onlookers seemed to be able to experience the impact themselves: "So strong, is this the power of the Seven Warlords of the Sea? Mr. Shark Pepper attacked with all his strength and couldn't hurt him at all!"
I’ve always heard about how powerful the Seven Warlords of the Sea are, but I never had a concrete concept. Now I finally have a reference - one Shark Pepper can beat a group of them, and it seems that one Shichibukai can beat several Shark Peppers?
They made a rough estimate and believed that one Jinbe could defeat more than a hundred onlookers.
The error of this algorithm is slightly large. On the one hand, Jinbe's Haki has not been used yet. On the other hand, this is on land. A conservative estimate is that Jinbe underwater can take on an artillery regiment by himself.
Moreover, Shark Chili has just started training and has a lot of room for growth.
After fifteen minutes, Shark Chili returned to his original form, and the test-style competition was over. Jinbei praised Shark Chili for his great progress and encouraged him to keep up the good work.
After everyone left the yard, Tom stayed behind alone, looking thoughtful. He imitated Jinbei and threw a few punches, and there seemed to be some invisible shock waves on his fists.
As if feeling bored, Tom yawned and slipped into the kitchen to look through the refrigerator.
After sitting for a while, Jinbei said goodbye.
"Won't you sit still a little longer? I didn't even let you taste Tom's cooking."
"Yes, Mr. Jinbei, Tom's cooking is great."
"Haha, we can save this for next time. But my companions are still waiting at the port. They will get anxious if we stay too long."
"Ah, I was negligent. I should have invited your companions to join us." Zhang Da did not notice that the guests seemed a little embarrassed when he said this.
The existence of a Jinbe is still within their psychological tolerance. After all, the Seven Warlords of the Sea are allies of the World Government and half of their own people. But if they have to face the entire Sun Pirates at once, it would be better for them to settle the bill and leave early.
Jinbei keenly noticed the changes in the expressions of the guests in the tavern and said with a smile: "I will convey your kindness, but there is no need to rush for such things. There will naturally be opportunities in the future."
"Okay then." This time Zhang Da also noticed the guests' relieved looks and decided not to force it.
"Kami, Papagu." Jinbei greeted.
"Yes!" Kami let Jinbei pick her up and put her on his shoulder, and Papagu jumped onto Jinbei's other shoulder.
"See you next time, Tatsuya-gege, Moe-gege, ..." Kimi waved goodbye.
"See you next time, Camie, Jinbe!"
After Zhang Da and his friends sent Jinpei away, the guests in the tavern finally realized, "Why did they let him take Kemi away? Was the young boss threatened?"
"No, Kimi is a mermaid, so of course she has to follow Jinbei back to Fishman Island." Zhang Daya's tone was as if he was talking about something very ordinary.
"What--?"
"Kami-chan is actually a mermaid?"
"Why didn't you tell us earlier?"
"I told you." Zhang Da said innocently, "Didn't I tell you that Kemi was brought by a friend and asked me to take care of him for a while? Isn't Jinbei that friend? How could the child he brought be an ordinary child?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Da also saw that many people showed signs of graying, and continued to attack: "There was once a sincere mermaid in front of you, but you didn't cherish her, and you regretted it only after you lost her..."
"That's enough, little boss, stop talking!"
"Our dreams, our mermaids!"
But Zhang Tatsuya's work was not yet finished, so how could he let them go? He continued, "It's all your fault for being too weak. You got scared when you saw Jinbei, so he took your opinion into consideration and refused to bring the crew with him."
Everyone thought it didn’t matter, if they didn’t bring it then so be it, they were just some murloc pirates anyway, so it didn’t matter if they didn’t see them, right?
Zhang Da said regretfully: "There is a mermaid on Jinbei's ship who is much more mature than Kemi. It seems that I won't have the chance to introduce her to you."
"Much more mature than Kemi-chan..."
"...Mermaid?"
"Is the young boss lying to us?"
Zhang Da also raised his finger: "I swear on Tom's life that I am not lying to you! If you don't believe me, you can ask Meng Meng and Altria."
Altria nodded in agreement. Rui Mengmeng thought for a moment and said, "There are indeed more mature mermaids. The boss didn't lie to you."
But the person the boss was talking about might be Aladdin, the mature mermaid... Uncle, maybe this is called the art of speaking.
They knew it was okay, but the guests didn't. They all thought they had missed the chance to see the big mermaid, and they were beating their chests and stamping their feet.
"Damn it, I'm not paying today!"
"Yes, I won't pay!"
The guests started to make a noise.
Altria stood in front of the door holding a sword. It had been a long time since she, the guard, had done her job. "Kill me and you don't have to pay."
Guests: ...
