Chapter 2 The so-called regulations:

"RMB?" The waiter was a little confused by her question.

What's this?

She looked at Cheng Xi and the strange red paper in her hand.

The girl in front of him looked serious and sincere, and she didn't seem to be joking with him.

"I'm sorry, miss, we don't accept what you call 'RMB' here." The waiter rejected her mercilessly.

Just as Cheng Xi was about to speak, the waiter said something even more heartbreaking: "We do not accept any form of credit."

Really, this elegant-looking pretty girl, with elegant clothes and manners, why would she want to learn from those rude pirates and dine and freeload?

Helplessly, Cheng Xi had to rummage around in his backpack under the waiter's watchful eyes, to see if he could find anything slightly more expensive to pay for the meal.

Unfortunately, she searched for a long time but still found nothing.

People in their line of work actually have a lot of precious jewelry such as gold, silver and gemstones, but most of them are not for decoration, but used as magic tools. For example, the red rope bracelet on her wrist, each bead has a specific purpose and cannot be used lightly.

If the master knew that I used the bracelet to pay for the meal, he would be so angry that he would develop hyperthyroidism and would resolutely hang myself on the Lengai volcano to be roasted until both sides were golden brown.

She thought to herself.

Cheng Xi searched the bag several times, but found nothing in the end.

Fortunately, at this time, a few banknotes were handed to the waiter, saving Cheng Xi from an embarrassing situation. She turned around and saw the blue-haired boy who had just explained to her what the Four Emperors were.

"Thank you for sharing the common sense of the Grand Line with me just now. It also made me realize the gap between myself and Roger, so I plan to continue my training in the South China Sea for two years before setting sail again."

He scratched his head, a little embarrassed: "This meal... just consider it as my treat for you."

From Cheng Xi's popularization and conversation just now, as well as his understanding of those big shots, the blue-haired boy vaguely felt that this girl was not the country bumpkin he had imagined, but must be a person of distinguished status.

"Ah?" Cheng Xi was a little surprised, but he quickly reacted and said to Lanmao: "Thank you."

This guy is a pretty good person, but he is a little stubborn.

But this is also normal. Every year, wave after wave of people set sail on the ocean, trying to conquer the great route. These people are like carp crossing the river, and there are countless stars in the sky.

After a group of people die or disappear, more new people will emerge.

For the dream.

Maybe Cheng Xi is a vulgar person and can't really understand these people's grand dreams.

She only knew that ever since Roger found the great secret treasure and became the Pirate King, the copy machine at the Navy Headquarters was almost running out of steam, and every day when she passed by the conference room on her way to work, she could see several stacks of freshly printed wanted posters.

Cheng Xi's highest record was working forty hours of overtime in a week. At that time, her resentment could almost condense into a physical entity. Even her cold and stern colleague Sakaski did not dare to breathe loudly in front of her.

The waiter reached out to take the bill, said "Welcome next time", and turned and left to go about his own business.

Cheng Xi waved goodbye to the blue-haired boy, and just as he stood up to leave, he felt a shadow covering him.

In front of her stood a dozen men dressed in typical pirate attire, holding weapons in their hands and looking ferocious and brutal.

The leader was a middle-aged man in his thirties, with an orange peel face, a face full of flesh, prominent brow bones, sparse and messy eyebrows, and a messy beard that went straight into his temples. He wore an open shirt and held a half-drunk bottle of wine in his hand. He reeked of alcohol and looked sloppy.

With just one glance, Cheng Xi could tell that this was definitely not a good person.

She frowned and tried to avoid them, but the other side was still relentless. A man actually walked out of the team and wanted to pinch her face.

Cheng Xi felt a chill and stepped back to avoid it.

Then he quickly grabbed the man's wrist and twisted it. The man instantly felt a mountain-like force clamping him down. Before he could think, he felt a sharp pain in his wrist.

The other hand attacked his ribs and he stepped forward with his arm diagonally to capture him.

The whole process was quick and smooth, taking less than three seconds.

When Orange Peel Face saw her men being captured, she did not show any worry, but scolded, "Waste."

She looked at Cheng Xi, laughed, and said jokingly, "Oh, I didn't expect that you are so strong at such a young age."

The people behind him also laughed.

Cheng Xi asked in a cold voice, "What are you going to do?"

The orange-peel face said arrogantly, "I'm not planning on doing anything. It's just that I saw you mentioned Roger and the New World just now, and you seemed to know a lot about these things. I suddenly got excited and wanted to capture you and bring you on our ship as a crew member, so that we can sail the Grand Line together again."

Cheng Xi raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh, how much is your bounty?"

When asked about the bounty, the orange-peel face seemed a little proud. He pointed at himself with his thumb and shouted, "Listen carefully, little girl. I am Wolft, the famous pirate on the Grand Line. The bounty is 89 million Baileys."

When everyone in the store heard the amount of his bounty, they were so scared that they gasped and dared not say anything more.

Seeing everyone's reactions, Wolft was very satisfied, so he continued: "The World Government still underestimates my strength. Once we enter the New World, our Giant Wolf Pirates will challenge the Four Emperors and the Seven Warlords of the Sea one by one, and bring all those legendary big men down from their altars. Hahahaha."

He laughed wildly, and the crew members behind him also laughed wildly.

Cheng Xi also laughed.

Being amused.

She only knew about consumption downgrade, but she didn't expect these people to downgrade her bounty and treatment.

After all, the pirates who invited me to join before were all big pirates with bounties of billions, and they also promised that I would be promoted to cadre level after joining. Even Big Mom knows the truth that "You can't make a success of your son if you don't want to sacrifice him". Why do I have to start as a crew member in this small pirate group?

So these ten years of my work have been in vain?

It was so serious that even Borsalino's slacking colleague would laugh at her if he found out.

"Do you want me to be your captain after I join?" Cheng Xi asked.

"You are such a funny girl. You can even make a joke. The captain is certainly not good enough. But if you want to..." She looked at Cheng Xi's beautiful face, "The captain's wife is still okay."

"Hahahahaha." At this time, Wolft knew nothing about her strength and was still laughing wildly.

Cheng Xi was really afraid that they would sprain their waists from laughing.

"Hey, let me ask you again, little beauty, do you want to join our Giant Wolf Pirates?" The cadre behind Wolft asked again.

"Da Mei." Cheng Xi answered decisively, "I refuse."

"Hahahahaha, okay, now you are the 103rd member of our Giant Wolf Pirates...eh?" Wolft then realized Cheng Xi's refusal.

"Why? I'm a pirate with a bounty of 89 million!!!"

"Because..." Cheng Xi hit them mercilessly.

"Your faces are so ugly, it really disgusts me." After saying that, she glanced at the people in the Giant Wolf Pirates with a look of disgust.

Wolft was so angry at Cheng Xi's words that his face turned red, his whole body was shaking, and even his nostrils were slightly open, as if smoke was coming out.

"You stinky bitch, you are so shameless. Just wait and see how I beat you today. I will make you cry and beg for mercy and ask me to get on the boat."

He threw the half-drunk bottle of wine away and raised his hand to hit Cheng Xi.

"Stop!" The blue-haired man on the side stopped him. He shrank his body and looked a little scared, but when he thought of the unwritten rule, he regained his confidence, "Have you forgotten the rules of Fette Island?"

"Are you planning to offend those big shots?"

"Offend?" Wolft said contemptuously, "I am the one who wants to defeat the Four Emperors, so how can I be afraid of offending them?"

Wolft's luck can be said to be against the sky. He has been in the Grand Line for so many years, but he has never encountered any big pirates to teach him a lesson. He only occasionally met some small fish and shrimps. Therefore, he developed the arrogant and conceited character of the members of the Giant Wolf Pirates.

"Today I'm going to cause trouble here and provoke those big guys, so that they can see how powerful I, the Evil Wolf Wolft, am."

He raised his head, looking very arrogant, and warned: "Hey, kid, get out of here quickly. If you keep interfering with my good deeds here, I'll kill you too."

Blue Hair felt the power and pressure of a strong man from Wolft. This was a pirate with a bounty of 89 million who returned from the Grand Line. He thought to himself that he and this little girl met by chance and didn't have much friendship, so he wouldn't risk his life for her.

Thinking of this, he retreated silently.

Wolft snorted, laughing at his tactfulness, then looked at Cheng Xi and his crew members with the same obscene expressions on their faces, as if she was already in his pocket.

He clenched his strong fist into a fist, swung it with force, and hit Cheng Xi in the abdomen. The people in the room couldn't help but gasp, secretly worried about her fate, but did not dare to step forward to plead for her.

"Double-faced clothes!" Cheng Xi secretly activated the ability of the fruit to fight back.

The devil fruit she ate is called the Makeup Fruit, a superhuman fruit related to makeup. As the name suggests, it is a loser fruit. Its previous owners were mostly beautiful socialites, singers, dancers, etc. This fruit can create the most beautiful makeup in the world, but in combat... it is a complete loser.

As for this Useless Fruit, Cheng Xi studied the chemical components of various cosmetics on the market for several days, but did not develop any useful skills. It was nothing more than some disguises, using cosmetics to form a protective shell, and condensing the chemical components inside into a pile to use as weapons.

God knows how much she envied her colleagues in the headquarters office for their fancy and cool fruits.

The double-faced coat is a skill she developed that combines both offense and defense. The ingredients of cosmetics are divided into two layers, the inner layer is beeswax and oils, which wrap the body to form a hard protective shell. The outer layer is very thick lauryl alcohol, mineral oil and other ingredients, which damage the enemy's skin and enter the body through the pores and blood vessels, causing the enemy's skin to become red, swollen, rotten, dizzy, and lose consciousness.

Originally, using the double-faced coat to deal with Wolft was a piece of cake and he could be easily defeated.

But now the fist is getting closer and closer, and the familiar feeling of being wrapped has not yet appeared.

Cheng Xi suddenly realized that the resurrection armor did not come with equipment! I no longer have any makeup fruit.

Seeing the confusion on Cheng Xi's face, Wolft thought she was scared by him, and felt even more proud.

The fist with a whistling sound was approaching. Cheng Xi threw the pirate he had just captured away and dodged sideways.

At this time, the sound of breaking air disappeared, and the fist... stopped!

She looked at the scene in front of her. Wolft's wrist was grabbed by another person and he couldn't move.

He was a young man with a red hedgehog head, wearing goggles, a dark red coat and yellow patterned trousers, a gun and a dagger on his waist, and a vicious and fearless smile on his face.

"This is the crew member I like, and it's not your turn to bully her here."

"Are you going to stand up for her?"

"I just don't like you."

After saying that, the crew members behind Kidd also showed their weapons, looking aggressive, and the war was about to break out.

Cheng Xi: “…”

Who would understand? I got offered again for no apparent reason.

"Thank you, young man, but I don't have any idea of ​​becoming a pirate for the time being." Cheng Xi said to Kidd.

However, Kidd ignored her words and instead pushed Cheng Xi with his free hand, trying to push her away: "It's not up to you to decide whether to be a pirate or not."

Well, a very domineering sentence.

It was just a little awkward, because he didn't push Cheng Xi, she was still standing there, motionless, like a rock, very steady.

At this time, Wolft also began to fight back, breaking free from Kidd's restraints and punching him in the face.

Kidd didn't have time to care about Cheng Xi anymore, and he also swung his fist to meet Wolft's attack. The two of them fought to a standstill in an instant, and the rest of the crew also started fighting.

The pub, which had a good atmosphere just now, was turned into a mess by them. The customers inside had never seen such a fierce scene before, and they all stood up and ran out of the pub. Only the waiter who had just delivered the meal to Cheng Xi was left standing there in a daze, at a loss as to what to do.

Seeing this, Lanmao also wanted to run away, but was pulled back by Chengxi and pressed down on the spot.

Cheng Xi asked: "You just mentioned the rules of Feite Island. What are the rules? Are fighting not allowed on the island? Are they made by the navy?"

Lanmao didn't expect that this seemingly slender girl was so strong that she couldn't move at all after holding her: "This is because more than ten years ago, a righteous navy vice admiral died in the line of duty. He died in..."

Lanmao patiently told her the secrets of this island.

"Where is her grave?"

From what he said, this vice admiral should be a good person, perhaps a colleague she had met before. She wanted to pay her respects before leaving.

"On Mount Mis, but we natives don't know the exact location. Only those important people know it. I heard that they don't want to disturb her."

This person... has quite a wide network of contacts.

Cheng Xi nodded and asked, "What's the name of this lieutenant general?"

"I think it's..." The blue-haired boy thought for a moment and replied, "Cheng Xi, a very strange name."

Cheng Xi: ...

...6. The white moonlight is actually me.

"By the way, I definitely couldn't beat the captain of the Giant Wolf Pirates just now, so..."

Cheng Xi let go of his hand and said nonchalantly: "It's okay, the first thing to do when sailing on the sea is to protect yourself."

"That's good." The blue-haired boy sighed. He planned to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible to avoid hurting innocent people.

Before leaving, he casually asked: "By the way, let's be friends. My name is Kyle, what's your name?"

Cheng Xi: "...My name is Cheng Xi."

Kyle: "..."

He smiled awkwardly, smoothed his hair with his hand, and said helplessly: "Haha, I didn't expect such a strange name would have the same name, haha."

Then he ran out of the tavern like the wind, leaving only a shadow.

Cheng Xi looked at the fierce battle in the tavern. He didn't know what kind of devil fruit the hedgehog-headed boy had eaten that could suck all the metal objects in the room together and bounce them back to attack Wolft.

Looks super cool.

Wolft's bounty of 89 million is also quite high. His hands are wrapped with Armament Haki. Although it is very weak, it is a big trouble for Kidd now. He gradually loses the upper hand and falls into a disadvantage.

Seeing that these people were about to tear down the ceiling of the tavern, Cheng Xi had to take action to stop the war.

"Stop!" Cheng Xi shouted, then flew to Wolft's side. Her figure was very light and fast, like thunder and lightning.

Before Wolft could even react, Cheng Xi was already beside him. He first knocked Kidd to the ground with one blow, then quickly drew his sword and attacked Wolft.

The sword energy is like snow, the cold light is chilling, the sword moves are sharp, and the speed is light and fast.

Wolft wanted to use his Armament Haki to resist, but it was too late. He had to passively endure this fierce killing move. In less than two moves, he no longer had the strength to resist, and fell to the ground covered in blood.

Cheng Xi casually pressed a few of his acupoints, and Wolft felt severe pain all over his body, then his body became numb and he passed out.

"Next, it's your turn." Cheng Xi looked at Wolft's crew and said word by word.

Feeling such a strong pressure, the pirates in the house were trembling with fear, getting scared before the battle even begins.

Sure enough, Cheng Xi defeated them in just a few moves, and then made them faint just like he did to Wolft.

"Don't underestimate the women on the Grand Line." He sheathed the sword, looking so dashing and capable that the waiters in the tavern were a little dazed.

She was excited, ahhhh, my sister is so handsome, my sister is so cool.

Cheng Xi asked the waiter for a rope and tied them up tightly, indicating that he could exchange Wolft for the bounty. Eighty-nine million Baileys should be enough to redecorate the tavern.

Woohoo, sister is so thoughtful, sister is so nice.

"I want to be my sister's grooming dog." She said what was in her mind without taking it seriously.

Cheng Xi: “Ah?”

It seems that his hearing loss is getting worse.

"No, nothing." The waiter quickly covered his mouth, secretly cursing himself for having such a useless mouth. He said whatever he thought!

After taking out the purse from Wolft, Cheng Xi turned around and met Kidd's eyes.

The scene suddenly became awkward.

Not to mention the person involved, even the waiter felt a little embarrassed for Kidd. What was this? The hero failed to save the beauty but was saved by the beauty instead?

"Um..." Cheng Xi spoke, breaking the silence and asked in a low voice, "Do you need me to help you take a look at your injuries?"

"No need." Kidd was a little exasperated.

"Wow, there's a little zombie."

At this time Cheng Xi saw that there was actually a zombie under the Kidd Pirates. The zombie had blue hair and thorn patterns on his body. He looked weird, but inexplicably he appealed to her cuteness.

Damn my aesthetic taste, she sighed in her heart.

Hitt: Don’t come over here! !

Fortunately, Cheng Xi just expressed his surprise and curiosity to the little zombie and left the tavern.

Hitt breathed a sigh of relief. Why did this woman feel even more terrifying than Boss Kidd!

After leaving the pub, the clothes and hair that had been naturally dried after being soaked in sea water stuck to her body, making her feel a little uncomfortable. Some tiny salt particles also precipitated on her skin, and her whole body was filled with the salty and fishy smell of the sea. Cheng Xi found a hotel to take a shower, and then washed and dried her clothes, shoes and socks.

Feeling relaxed and comfortable, Cheng Xi walked out of the hotel.

She planned to go to Cheng Xi's grave to pay her respects, after all, she was using his body.

If I'm not mistaken, it should be at that location.

At this time, the sun had already set and the moon was rising quietly. The moon was bright and the wind was clear, the sky and the earth were bright, and Cheng Xi slowly walked into the mountains.

At this time, the sea water around Fit Island was dark blue, and it seemed deeper and more mysterious as it went farther away, but the dock was a bit noisy.

The Four Emperors' ships have arrived.
