Chapter 26-Hangover
"Lawton, are you…alright?”
It was only then that Makino, who was carrying a bag and panting, ran over. When she saw Lawton walking out of the crowd with Luffy, she quickly asked.
" It's fine now," Lawton said calmly." The other party isn't the kind of pirate who kills. Don't worry."”
"That's good."
" Let's go." Makino handed the package to Lawton." I brought your package here. Let's go straight to the bar."”
"Sure,"
Even if Makino did not invite him, Lawton would have gone straight to the bar. Shanks had come and was already interested in him. The next transaction could be said to be a matter of course. With a big customer like the redhead, he naturally did not have to set up a stall anymore.
"Hahaha…Stupid boss, you were ignored just now. You really have no face at all.”
"So what if I'm ignored? The vice-captain had just been turned into a sheep. That would be funny.”
"Shanks, if you don't want to die, you'd better not mention this.”
"Hahaha…our vice-captain is furious.”
“……”
In the end, the villagers still let the red-haired pirates in. After all, ordinary people were still very afraid of pirates. After Shanks promised not to cause trouble, the villagers dared to stop them again. Although in their opinion, the pirates 'promises were no different from farting, at this time, they could only choose to believe it.
After all, even if the pirates chose to cause trouble in the end, didn't they still have Lawton?
"Yo, little brother, we meet again.”
Just as Lawton and the other two entered the bar, Shanks walked in and greeted Lawton very familiarly.
"Yes."
Lawton hummed in response. Although he wished Shanks would buy his stuff right now, they had just had a conflict. It was not a good time to be too enthusiastic, so he could only maintain his cold attitude.
"Don't be so unreasonable. Speaking of which, we just had a little misunderstanding. Let me treat you to a drink.”Shanks shamelessly approached him, put his arm around his shoulder, and invited him with a smile.
"I don't want to." Lawton rejected with a look of disdain.
"Come on, come on. It's more lively when everyone is together.”
However, Shanks completely ignored his cold attitude and shamelessly pulled Lawton into his team.
" Little ones, welcome our new friend…"
"Oh…"
The red-haired pirates seemed to have completely forgotten about the conflict just now. They all raised their glasses and cheered for Lawton. Even Beckman had forgotten about his previous displeasure and raised his glass with a straight face.
Lawton was not used to the noise at all. Just as he was at a loss, Shanks came over with two glasses and stuffed one of them into Lawton's hand."Come, come, little brother. Let's have a drink. The misunderstanding just now will be completely over. Speaking of which, the wine brewed by the lady boss was really good. He had to bring more when he left.”
“……”
Lawton had completely forgotten how he got back. When he woke up, it was already noon the next day.
"Hiss…Damn, it seems like it's better to drink less in the future.”
Lawton held his head with a headache. He was filled with regret. Who knew how much alcohol he had drunk yesterday?
He only remembered that after drinking Shanks 'wine, the other pirates also came up with wine. No matter how few the Shanks Pirates were, there were still dozens of them. Even if each of them had a glass, how could Lawton stop them alone? In the end, he vomited and didn't know anything else after that.
"Eh?"
Lawton suddenly looked around. This was not a hotel.
"Creak."
The door was pushed open, and Makino walked in with a bowl. Seeing that Lawton had woken up, her pretty face blushed.""Lawton, you're awake…"
"Uh, am I in a tavern?"
Lawton was also a little embarrassed. It was like this yesterday, and it ended up in an awkward scene.
"Yes, because you drank too much, the red-haired captain and the others were also drunk. I was too weak to send you to the hotel, so I could only..."
The more Machino spoke, the redder her face became. In the end, she directly changed the topic."This is a hangover tea that I brewed according to the recipe in the Winemaking Secret Manual. You should feel better after drinking it.”
"Thank you, Makino." Lawton was slightly touched. He took the hangover tea and drank it in one gulp."Where's Shanks and the others? You haven't left yet?"
" No, they're all drunk. They're still in the hall…"
When Makino said this, she suddenly hesitated for a moment, wanting to say something but then stopped.
"What's wrong, Makino?"
Lawton noticed the change in Makino's expression and laughed.""We've known each other for so long and can be considered friends. Do you still need to hide anything from me?”
"It's nothing. It's just that..."
" Yes." Machee took Lawton's clothes." Lawton, do you think the red-haired captain and the others are good or bad?"”
"Um…"
Lawton did not expect Makino to ask such a question, but it made sense. Even though Windmill Village was Karp's hometown, they were still very afraid of pirates, and Makino was no exception. Especially because of Karp, pirates rarely visited this place. Now that a pirate group had suddenly appeared, it was impossible to say that the villagers were not afraid.
"How should I put it…"
Lawton thought for a moment and slowly said,""To say that they are good people is naturally nonsense. Of course, they shouldn't be considered pure bad people. Don't worry, pirates are different from each other. Although most pirates in this world mainly burn, kill, and rob, it's not like there aren't pirates who mainly take risks. Shanks should be such a pirate group…After all, if they wanted to rob Windmill Village, they would have done it when they came ashore. Why would they come to the village to drink?”
" That's true..." Makino also heaved a sigh of relief. As long as he wasn't a bad person, it was fine.
"However, don't let your guard down. After all, we don't know much about them. No one knows if they are gentlemen on the surface, so it's best for everyone not to provoke them. Just treat them as ordinary guests.”After thinking for a while, Lawton added, as if he was giving Shanks a little eye candy.
"Hey, hey, I say, Little Brother Lawton, it's not a man's behavior to speak ill of others behind their backs, right?”Shanks 'unhappy voice suddenly came from outside the door, obviously expressing his dissatisfaction with Lawton's words just now.
"Hehe, am I badmouthing you? This can only be considered an ordinary warning, right?”
"On the other hand, as a man, eavesdropping on others behind their backs is not considered a manly act, right?”If it were any other person, it would be a little awkward if they were exposed for badmouthing someone behind their back. However, Lawton was not like that. Instead, he turned the tables and pushed the blame onto Shanks.
