The Young Man Setting Up a Street Stall
Eastern Sea.
The Goa Kingdom.
Windmill Village.
Windmill Village was not a simple place. It was the hometown of the naval hero, Monchi D. Karp, the birthplace of the leader of the Revolutionary Army, Monchi D. Dolag, and the place where the future Pirate King, Monchi D. Luffy, grew up.
Therefore, no matter how crazy the pirates were, they would rarely offend this place. Even if there were occasionally bandits or hooligans who came here to cause trouble, they would not dare to go too far. At most, they would eat and drink for free. No one would dare to kill.
It was also because of this that Windmill Village became a famous place of peace in the East China Sea. Merchant ships often stopped here, bringing many new things to the village.
Today, the sea was particularly gentle. The weather was clear and cloudless. The sea was calm and the seagulls flew around without worries. Fish jumped out of the sea from time to time. It was a peaceful atmosphere.
At the dock, a cargo ship gradually docked. The sailors stretched and got off the ship, planning to relax. A group of people immediately surrounded the dock and greeted the customers to their shops.
Amongst this group of guests, there was a young man who looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old. He had delicate features and although his clothes were old, they were exceptionally clean. His greatest feature was that he was carrying a huge bag on his back. No one knew what goods were inside.
The young man's behavior was not unusual, because there were often merchants like him who followed the cargo ship and sold things from all over the world. Although the young man was not old, he did not attract anyone's attention. They only thought that he was an ordinary traveling merchant.
"So this is Windmill Village, the hometown of the second-generation Pirate King Monchi D. Luffy. Is this also the place where his adventure began? It was similar to what was described in the manga.”
Looking at the surrounding environment, the young man was obviously very satisfied." Very good. This is the starting point of the legendary great merchant, Douglas D. Lawton's business empire.”
The young man's name was Douglas D. Lawton…Of course, Douglas and D were added by the young man himself. His real name was Lawton, a lucky transmigrator.
Lawton himself was also very puzzled. He was neither an orphan nor a failure in his previous life. In fact, he was considered a successful person in his previous life. Although he was not considered a wealthy person after starting a company, he was still worth tens of millions. It was more than enough to compare with the top.
Lawton did not have much ambition. He had planned to live like this for the rest of his life, but fate was just so unpredictable. He only attended a party, drank too much, and slept. When he woke up, he found himself on a cargo ship, and he had become a 15-year-old teenager.
After many inquiries, Lawton finally figured out where he was. The world he had transmigrated to was actually One Piece's world.
This made Lawton's heart skip a beat. He was no stranger to One Piece. As a typical post-90s generation, he had read all those classic comics. He knew all too well how dangerous the world of One Piece was. The theme of this world was pirates. Although there were adventurers like Luffy who only liked to take risks, there were more people who killed without blinking and easily slaughtered cities and countries.
Especially since the upper limit of martial strength in this world was very high. It was as if a general-level expert destroyed an island as if it was a joke. Let alone a general, even ordinary pirates had very strong combat strength. At the very least, they were not something that a weak youth like him could fight against. If he was unlucky enough to encounter pirates one day, he might be finished.
Fortunately, as a transmigrator, he was still equipped with a golden finger.
Lawton's golden finger was called the Stall System. Its main function was to increase his strength by setting up a stall to sell things and obtaining system rewards. The bag on his back was a gift from the system.
This package was not simple. It looked like an ordinary package, but in fact, it was an entrance to the fourth-dimensional world. The system would refresh the goods inside every once in a while.
The items that were chosen by the system were naturally not simple goods. The items in the package were all high-quality products from the myriad worlds. Skills, weapons, medicines, bloodlines... There was everything that one could not imagine, and there was nothing that the system could not find.
The only problem was…
"Hey, little brother, how much are you selling your things for?”
At this time, Lawton had already chosen a place on the dock. As soon as he unrolled the package, a group of people surrounded him. One of them even started to ask about the price. These people liked small merchants like Lawton the most. The things they brought were often not available on the island, and the price was not too expensive. At least, it was much cheaper than the goods sold by merchant ship owners.
"What do you need?"
Lawton squeezed out a smile, but he was not happy at all. Although these people were quite enthusiastic now, after he finished bidding, not a single one of them would be left. It would be troublesome to start his business.
"This saber is not bad. How much is it?"
The middle-aged man took a fancy to one of the sabers at a glance. He pulled it out and took a look. The cold air was pressing and the blade was cold. He was instantly satisfied."I've always wanted a knife. If the price is right, I'll buy it.”
"Uncle, you can tell that you know what's good for you. You immediately chose the best saber I have.”
The first rule of the system was that as a vendor with ideals and pursuits, the customer was God. The host had to treat every customer with the warmest attitude.
Therefore, even though he didn't have much hope, he still had to say what he had to say.
"It wasn't easy for me to get this knife. Seeing that you know what's good for you, I won't take it from you.”
"Pa da!"
The treasured saber slipped from his hand and the uncle swallowed with difficulty."Are you joking?"
"Of course not." Lawton was disappointed, but he still explained,""Although this sword isn't very famous, its quality isn't inferior to a good sword, and it has a huge potential for growth. If you can truly unleash the power of this sword, uncle, you will be the next world's greatest sword master…A million Bailey isn't expensive for such a precious sword.”
"Stop joking." The middle-aged man's face flushed red as he glared at Luo An."What world's number one sword hero? There was no such thing as bragging, right? Even if I'm not knowledgeable, I know that becoming a Sword Hero can't be done with just a saber, right?”
"But what I said is true.”Luo An said innocently.
"What do you mean? I think you're blackmailing me." The uncle was obviously very angry." This kid is a liar. Don't be fooled by him."”
"What? So you're a liar. Why did you have to be a liar at such a young age? Let's go, let's go."
With the uncle's revelation, everyone thought that Lawton was a liar. One of them gave him a disdainful look and dispersed, leaving only the innocent youth behind.
