--------------------------------------------------------
Although it was already open for business, there were no firecrackers or anything like that. Not to mention passing pirates, even the neighbors did not know about the opening of the business. Meng Le and the other two were also happy to be free.
Taking advantage of the time, Meng Le decided to sell some of the low-end Devil Fruits to the system. Only 3 Natural and 4 interesting Superman Demonic Fruits were left.
The Nature Element was the Rain Fruit, the Air Fruit, and the Earth Fruit.
The superman types were ripening fruit, hair fruit, slippery fruit, and speed fruit.
After selling the fruits he had collected over the past few years, Meng Le had earned more than 37,000 points. He had more than 90,000 points left. After a few years of running around, he had almost earned back all his previous consumption.
Meng Le placed the seven fruits on the table. Fortunately, no one came to the teahouse. Otherwise, they would be so shocked that they would die. However, those who had seen more than 80 fruits were very calm.
"Big Insect, which one do you want to eat?" Meng Le decided to give the choice to the big insect. Previously, Kurulu had a fixed direction because of the boat. Meng Le did not have any requirements for the big insect. After all, even acting cute these days required looks. The big insect's fate was already decided from the moment it was born.
"I want the Hair Fruit. Think about it. A phone bug covered in hair. How interesting would that be?”Kululu's eyes lit up as she suggested a bad idea.
" Hehe," Meng Le and Da Chong laughed dryly.
"I want the Air Fruit. It's so tiring to climb up and down every day.”The insect's eyes wandered between the three Nature Fruits as it made a difficult decision.
"Then why didn't you choose the Fruit of Speed?”Kurulu chimed in.
Big Insect looked at Kurulu as if he was an idiot and said,""The shell on my back is so heavy.”Then, he looked at Meng Le helplessly and said,""Master, did you forget to raise your IQ when you materialized Kurulu?”
Then, the daily battle between the big insect and Kululu began again. Meng Le saw that the big insect had already chosen, so he directly exchanged for a bottle of genetic potion and placed it in front of it.
Kurulu gloated,""Eat it, quickly eat it."
Even though it knew that the Demon Fruit tasted strange, the bug could only eat it and dry vomit a few times before drinking the genetic potion.
At this moment, Meng Le had already exchanged for two sets of domineering seed books and Six Styles of the Navy books. He divided them into two and pushed them in front of the two.
"Hey, hey, your master specially changed this for you. You can't disappoint me, right?”The two of them smiled bitterly and took the things. The seeds were directly absorbed, and it didn't take much time. However, he had to read the book first.
The two of them were the kind of people who couldn't settle down. After a day, they finally imprinted the book in their minds.
There were no customers in the shop either. Kurulu was arranged to receive the cashier at the door and make tea. Big Insect was arranged to train on the second floor, and Meng Le was lying on the deck chair to bask in the sun. Separated, Kurulu and the big insect could only train their abilities in boredom.
Perhaps it was because of the job class, the combat job classes in One Piece all liked to drink alcohol, and the civilians rarely drank tea. Once the big signboard was hung up, it could be said that there were very few people.
A few days later, in the morning, Kurulu was bored and sat on a stool to exercise his dominance.
"Squeak ~" The door was pushed open. It was the highest ranking officer of the Roguetown Navy, Lieutenant General Cuenca. Naturally, he had a set of portraits of navy executives in his hands when he opened a shop in Roguetown.
The bored Kurulu immediately put on a smile."Welcome. What kind of tea do you want to drink and where do you want to drink it?”
Cuenca, who was about to walk in, turned around and looked at Kurulu when he heard this. Perhaps it was because Kurulu was too cute, Cuenca smiled and asked her,""What kind of tea do you have? Where can I drink it?”
"The shop only sells one type of tea. You can choose to drink it on the first floor, the second floor, or the rooftop.”Cuenca was a little speechless. Since they were only selling one type of tea, there shouldn't be a choice.
Cuenca looked around and realized that there were no stairs. He pointed upstairs and looked at Kurulu.
Kurulu raised her chin." There's a hole over there. The boss said that if you want to go up, you have to rely on yourself."”
"Remember to bring me tea," Cuenca shrugged.”
A height of four meters was not a problem for the lieutenant general. After jumping up, he found a relatively high small platform near the entrance of the cave, and there was a phone bug on it. He didn't care about it, he found the hole that led to the rooftop and jumped up again.
There weren't many tables and chairs on the rooftop. In the middle, there was a man with a bare upper body and a pair of cropped jeans sitting cross-legged on the ground with his back facing him.
Meng Le had known about it when Cuenca had just entered the door, but he had ignored it.
Seeing that this person was probably cultivating, Cuenca did not disturb him and directly found a place near the edge to sit down. He didn't notice it at first, but the touch on his hand made him alert. As a vice-admiral, Cuenca had seen Hai Loushi before. What made him alert was that the table was made of Hai Loushi. While he realized that it was not simple, he also felt that the material of the chair was very special, although he did not know what was special about it.
Looking around, the tables and fences on the platform were all made of sea stone, and the chairs were all made of special materials.
Kunka stood up and walked towards Meng Le. As he walked, he said,""You must be the boss here. This place is very special.”He placed his hand on the hilt of the saber, ready to pull it out at any moment.
Meng Le helplessly got up and turned around. When he saw Kunka, his expression became exaggerated."Aiyo, isn't this Lieutenant General Cuenca? It's my honor to visit our store.”
The knife was pulled out. Kunka looked at Meng Le angrily and said,""So it's you. What are you doing here collecting Meng Le?"
Meng Le raised her hands and took two steps back. She said innocently,""Comrade Haijun, I have abandoned evil and turned to good. Can't you see that I have started to open a teahouse? Don't be so nervous, okay? You can't beat me.”
Kunka gripped the hilt of his sword tightly. Meng Le had encountered Kunka a few times when he was robbing the navy. Although Kunka knew the Six Styles of Navy and Armed Color Haki, he could not help but beat Meng Le up.
Cuenca kept his knife and stared at Meng Le.""I hope you can keep your word.”
Meng Le saw that he couldn't make it, so he put his arm around Kunka's shoulder and sat down at the nearest seat.
"Sir, the tea is here." Big Insect shouted from the second floor. A wooden stick stuck out from the hole, and there was a cup of hot tea on it.
"You see, we are all old acquaintances. After drinking this cup of tea, we are still good friends.”Meng Le gave him an expression that said,"I'm giving you face by letting you drink. If you don't drink, you're unlucky." Cuenca was so angry that he slammed his cup on the table and said angrily,""What a joke! I can't have a friend like you."
"Aiyaya, you didn't come to the teahouse to drink tea. Could it be that you want to drink water?”Meng Le ignored Kunka's words. They had met a few times before. Meng Le felt that Kunka was a serious person and would not be too impulsive.
Cuenca's mind raced. He then adjusted his mood and said to Meng Le with a gloomy face,""This is Roguetown. I don't want to hear the news of the Devil's Fruit being stolen again. Otherwise, I'll immediately drive a warship and blow up your teahouse.”
"You're really heartless. I've only killed pirates these past few years, not the navy.”Meng Le rolled her eyes at him, picked up her teacup, and took a sip of tea.
"Just because you didn't kill the navy, you still have the chance to sit here and drink tea!”Kunka ignored Meng Le's strange look and said seriously.
"Alright, alright, but as a price, you have to guarantee my safety.”He raised his teacup and gestured to Cuenca.
Cuenca thought for a moment and raised his teacup.
" Puff!" Just as he drank the first mouthful, Kunka could not help but vomit.
Then, he stood up angrily and pulled out the knife. Just as he spat it out, Meng Le exerted force with his feet and slid back along with the chair.
"Are you playing with me? You're selling such an awful tea?”Cuenca said angrily.
"Please, is it fun to play with you? We're counting on you to protect our store in the future.”Meng Yue shrugged, expressing his innocence.
Cuenca looked at Meng Le suspiciously, his eyes scanning between the two teacups. He had only drunk the tea when he smelled the fragrance of Meng Le's tea. He did not expect the tea leaves to taste so bad.
"I'm the boss, so I have special privileges. I got these tea leaves from an unknown island, and there aren't many of them.”Meng Le pointed at his teacup and said.
" Hmph." Kunka turned around and jumped down from the hole. Meng Le followed him down the stairs.
"Thank you for your patronage, 500 Bailey.”Kurulu smiled sweetly at the bar counter. Cuenca casually threw out a 500 Bailey note and looked at Kurulu carefully. She and Meng Le were obviously old acquaintances. She was probably the one who made the wooden stick just now.
" Wait!" Meng Le shouted from behind Kunka. Ignoring Kunka's expression, he took out a very large piece of paper and a brush and handed it to him.
"You're finally my first customer. I'll leave your name as a memento.”The good mood that Cuenca had before coming was gone, leaving only depression. After being forced to leave his name, he turned around and left.
" Hmph, so what if you're a lieutenant general?" Kululu muttered as she watched Meng Le scribble on a piece of paper. Kululu said to Meng Le hesitantly,""Master, this isn't very good."
Meng Le happily shook off the white paper and said with a smile,"This is very good."
"Hang this in the hall later and see who dares to cause trouble.”After admiring it for a while, Meng Le handed the paper to Kululu.
The content on the paper was very simple,"I'm protecting this place. Be careful." Roguetown, Vice Admiral, Cuenca.
