The Red-haired Man Is Here
In the next few days, Lawton finally started to set up a stall outside the banquet tavern. Unfortunately, he did not even get a single business after setting up a stall for a week.
He had no choice. After selling the " Secret Book of Brewing Wine ", the cheapest item he had left was 500,000 Bailey, which was that high-tech smartphone. He did not know how the system converted it, but this thing was actually so expensive.
Windmill Village was just a small village after all. Even if there were merchant ships docked there, there were very few people who could fork out hundreds of thousands of Bailey without a lottery draw. Even if they could afford that much money, they would not be willing to spend so much money on something that they did not know what it was.
What was even more unfortunate was that there had been a typhoon in the past few days. The monstrous waves almost overturned the entire sea. Under such circumstances, the people in the village did not even dare to go to the beach, afraid that they would be swept away by the waves.
Not to mention a merchant ship. Even if a merchant ship docked in the village, the villagers knew that the things in Lawton's hands were very magical. They surrounded Lawton's stall every day to ask him to introduce the goods, but it was just to broaden their horizons. No one really wanted to buy them.
"Sigh, I didn't get anything today.”
Seeing that it was getting dark and no one was asking for a price, Lawton simply closed his stall and returned to the hotel.
"I've already sold six items. I'll be able to draw the lottery with four more.”
Lying in bed with nothing to do, Lawton began to calculate the things he had sold. Luffy bought two of them, which were the Ultimate Emperor Gloves and the Instant Movement Technique. Karp bought three of them, Eight Gates, Iron Armor Mark 37 Hammerhead Shark, and the Sheep Transformation Technique that he bought for Luffy. Finally, he bought the Brewing Secret Manual that Makino bought. There were a total of six of them, and before he knew it, he had already traded more than half of them. Next, Lawton only needed to trade four more to be able to draw the lottery.
As for the remaining four pieces, Lawton was not at ease at all. Even if there was still no business in the future, it would be fine as long as the Red-Haired Pirates came. Lawton did not believe that the Red-Haired Pirates would not be tempted after seeing his magical goods. At that time, they might be able to gather fourteen pieces, let alone four.
As he thought about it, Lawton fell asleep in a daze.
"Hah!"
After a long stretch, Lawton asked curiously,""Strange, where did Luffy go?"
Luffy obviously treated him as a playmate. He came to find Lawton almost as soon as he woke up, so much so that he had treated Luffy as his alarm clock for the past few days. However, for some reason, Luffy did not come today.
"Clang!"
The door was suddenly pushed open.
"Who is it?"
Lawton subconsciously touched a katana beside him and almost slashed it. Fortunately, at the last moment, he saw the identity of the person."Makino, why are you here?"
After a few days of training, the relationship between the two of them had improved. They could now directly call each other by their names without using honorifics.
"Lawton, bad news."
"Pirates are coming," Makino said anxiously.”
"Pirates?"
Lawton was shocked at first, but then he realized that Shanks should have arrived around this time.
"That's right, what a big pirate ship.”Maginor was not as relaxed as Lawton.""The village guards have already gone over, but the village guards of Windmill Village can only catch thieves and so on. They are no match for the pirates. So I can only rely on you, Lawton…"
Makino had seen Lawton and Karp fight before. Although she did not know how powerful Lawton was, she believed that Lawton's strength should not be something that ordinary pirates could contend with since he was able to face Karp without being at a disadvantage. Therefore, after learning that pirates had arrived, she immediately placed her hopes on Lawton.
"Don't worry, I'll go over and take a look.”
Lawton did not panic because Shanks was not the kind of pirate who burned, killed, and robbed. This time, not only did he not have any conflict with the villagers when he stopped at Windmill Village, but he also left a beautiful memory here. Therefore, it did not matter to Lawton whether he went there earlier or later.
"Please hurry up. Luffy has already passed.”Makino was anxious to death and kept urging Lawton.
"Luffy? Then there's no problem…"
Luffy and Shanks hit it off very well. The first time they met, they became good friends. Even Luffy's pirate route was guided by Shanks. In order to strengthen Luffy's belief, Shanks even lost an arm. Once the two met, the chances of the red-haired pirates and the villagers getting into conflict would be even lower.
But…
"Wait a minute."
At the thought of this, Lawton's expression suddenly changed. Luffy and Shanks became friends. That was the original plot, but he already existed in this world. What was worse was that Luffy had learned two godly skills from here. With Luffy's impulsive personality, if he threw a Polymorph at them the moment they met...
This was very likely to happen because when the red-haired pirates saw Luffy, they would definitely make fun of him. There was no doubt about that. However, with Luffy's personality, if he was underestimated, he would most likely attack…and if he was suddenly turned into a sheep by a little kid, no matter how good Shanks 'temper was, he would probably be furious…
It was hard to say how the situation would develop.
"Not good."
Lawton was really anxious. If Luffy did this, the consequences would be unimaginable. The possibility of Shanks killing Luffy was not high, but the possibility of him teaching Luffy a lesson was 100%. Once the two sides became enemies, it was hard to say whether Luffy would still walk the path of pirates in the future.
If Luffy became afraid of the pirates because of this, then he would undoubtedly side with the navy…If the main character had changed sides, would One Piece still be One Piece?
"Phew!"
The anxious Lawton immediately lifted the blanket.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, Makino's scream came from the side. Lawton was stunned. He suddenly remembered that he had gone to bed without even putting on his pajamas after taking a shower yesterday, so...
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Lawton was also very embarrassed. He quickly covered himself with the blanket."Makino, can you please go out first and let me put on my clothes?”
"Oh…"
Makino covered her eyes and walked out of the room in a panic. Fortunately, she did not bump into anything on the way. However, compared to the danger of covering her eyes and walking, Makino wanted to find a hole to hide in.
