Me and Nine Tails Clashing with the Pirates

To kill or not to kill?

Feeling Shanks' fierce murderous aura, this question suddenly flashed through Charlotte's mind.

The development of the plot has surpassed the original work. If Shanks killed the Bandit King, how could he use an arm to fool Luffy.

"and many more"

Maginot came out to stop him.

She glanced at Shanks, then looked up at the bandit leader: "This bar is my shop. If you want to fight, you can fight outside, but you must abide by my rules here."

Shanks stared at Maginot for a while. He withdrew his sharp gaze, put down the bottle, and said calmly: "There is no more wine here. If you want to buy it, go to the wine shop next door. There should be more wine there." There’s wine”.

The bandit leader was not an idiot. The sharp look just now made him realize that the pirates in front of him were not easy to deal with.

With a roll of his eyes, the bandit leader, who knew the current affairs well and was considered a hero, took advantage of the donkey down the slope and said, "I see you don't have any good wine in this bar. Let's go."

Watching the bandits leave, Maginot patted her towering chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, when Jesus Bu and other crew members saw the shriveled captain, they burst into laughter and looked at Maginot and Shanks with strange expressions. Some even gave a little thumbs up.

Seeing their actions, Maginot's pretty face instantly turned red, her face filled with shyness, and she turned around and walked into the bar as if she was running away.

"Go away, you bunch of bastards, the wine can't stop your drinking," Shanks cursed.

The laughter grew louder.

The arrival of the bandit leader was a small episode. Although he didn't see what happened in the plot, Charlotte was not disappointed. What Charlotte wanted to see was that Luffy didn't eat the Devil Fruit.

He wanted to confirm a hypothesis through this matter, which was also one of the two most important reasons for him to come to the East China Sea.

What happened to Luffy?

Everything is a coincidence of fate. It is fate that Shanks appears here. Or should we say that the so-called fate is actually a man-made calculation.

If it is a coincidence of fate, it is not good news for Charlotte. If it is a human calculation, then Charlotte will have no scruples in his next actions.

Of course, there are dangers, and some people will not let him ruin years of planning.

Through this trip to Windmill Village, Charlotte can take a peek behind the scenes of this world. To a certain extent, Windmill Village is where it all started.

Shanks glanced at Charlotte and asked curiously: "What are you doing grabbing the gold in the sky?"

Money is a good thing, gold in the sky is worth billions, but when it comes to Xia Luo's situation, there is no shortage of money at all, and Xia Luo has no power and is alone.

Charlotte said: "I am planning to form a pirate group, so building a pirate ship will require a lot of funds."

Shanks' pupils suddenly tightened, and his face froze. Charlotte actually wanted to become a pirate. This guy really had this idea.

When Charlotte revealed that the map of ONEPIECE was on the historical text of the road sign, Shanks thought that Charlotte also wanted to snatch ONEPIECE, but he didn't expect that Charlotte would decide to become a pirate.

Trouble!

Shanks' heart sank, and he suddenly felt that all his plans were disrupted.

Given Charlotte's current reputation and combat power at sea, once a pirate group is established, it will become a first-class pirate group in one fell swoop. As long as Charlotte is given a few years, there will be another Sea Emperor in the new world.

Charlotte was keenly aware of the clues, but did not expose them.

Looking at the wooden box on the table next to him, Charlotte brought the topic to Devil Fruit: "I heard that you stole a Devil Fruit from the World Government in the New World."

"I bumped into it on the way, but I didn't expect there was a Devil Fruit on it," Shanks replied calmly.

Charlotte took a sip of wine and did not expose Shanks' lie on the spot. The rubber fruit was not a superman but a fantasy beast.

It's a bit like Charlotte recently figured out why Shanks told Luffy this was a rubber fruit. In fact, it was a kind of hiding.

Phantom Beast Species - Renren Fruit - Nika form, this is a devil fruit that even the five old stars are afraid of. If you tell Luffy the name of the real fruit, you will be targeted by the world government from the beginning.

So Shanks told Luffy a false name from the beginning, and Luffy thought so too. I have to say, Shanks' plan was brilliant.

Luffy was deceived, and even the World Government did not realize that Luffy had eaten the form of the phantom beast-the Human Fruit-Nika.

Of course, Wulaoxing was not stupid. They found out later, but by then, it was already too late.

Perhaps they realized it when the Warring States Period sent bears to kill people, but the Warring States Period didn't know that the bears were actually revolutionary soldiers.

In the later stage, with the war on the top, Whitebeard's protection, and Rayleigh's guidance, in the end, the World Government had no way to deal with Luffy.

Charlotte glanced sideways at Shanks with a meaningful smile: "I heard different news."

Shanks' heart tightened, and he entered the room with a calm expression, and asked curiously: "What's the news?"

Charlotte began to tell Shanks: "In the process of robbing the heavenly gold, I caught a Celestial Dragon and pried it out from his mouth. The World Government lost a very important Devil Fruit and you snatched it away. He Tell me that it is a phantom beast species, Renren Fruit-Nika form."

Shanks couldn't keep calm. What Charlotte knew was beyond his expectation. He was deliberately testing me.

Sensing the change in Shanks' expression, she paused and continued, "You know, the person next to me is O'Hara's survivor, Nicole Robin, the only scholar in the world today. She told me, Nikka is a legendary warrior that slaves have believed in since ancient times and will eventually liberate them.

Moreover, the World Government considers Nika to be the same as the historical text and is not allowed to talk about it. Once discovered, it will be the death penalty."

Shanks put down his wine glass, remained silent for a moment, turned to look at Charlotte, and said in a deep voice, "What do you want to know?"

After hearing this, Shanks would be stupid if he still couldn't understand what Charlotte meant.

Sure enough, Charlotte's purpose in coming to Windmill Village was to come to him. That's fine. At least that purpose has not been leaked. No, it is not certain yet. Judging from what he has done, Charlotte's mind is as delicate as an abyss. It was impossible to guess what he was thinking.

Charlotte made a condition: "I want this Devil Fruit."

"no"

Shanks didn't even think twice and refused without hesitation.

This is no longer a problem with a Devil Fruit. The meaning of this Devil Fruit is too important for him to give it to Charlotte.

Charlotte's voice suddenly turned cold: "What if I plan to rob?"

Hearing this, although Robin was surprised that Charlotte was having a good conversation and suddenly wanted to rob him, she was still prepared.

Shanks whispered: "You can't take it away."

The two looked at each other, and there seemed to be firelight emerging from the void.

Charlotte frowned, changed the topic, and asked the next best thing: "I want to know the special characteristics of the phantom beast species, and what the Nika form means?"

Shanks took a deep look at Charlotte and suddenly realized that this was his purpose. This guy had no intention of snatching the Devil Fruit from the beginning.
