Leaving
There was really no other gift. Lawton thought about it and took out the skill card for the Large Fireball."This is a Skill Card. I'll give it to you as a self-defense treasure.”
"I…"
Makino's face immediately turned red, especially when the villagers behind her started laughing, they were even more at a loss.
However, Makino still received the Large Fireball in the end, and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito,""You…you have to be careful. I…I'll wait for you to come back.”
"As long as I'm cured, I'll rush back immediately.”
Lawton promised with a smile.
"Little Brother Lawton, what about me?"
Shanks pointed at himself and pretended to be pitiful."We can be considered friends, right? Don't you plan to give me anything before you leave?”
"No, I haven't." Lawton rolled his eyes. This guy still had the face to ask for a gift. You didn't even bring me a gift when you came back.
Logically speaking, Lawton should have left a long time ago. However, he had wasted half a month in Windmill Village just to wait for Shanks before the red-haired pirates returned…Of course, this was not because Lawton had a good relationship with them. The problem was that he had the Eye of Archaic Inspection. If he did not replicate Shanks and his gang, wouldn't he have suffered the pain of having his eyes dug out for nothing?
Therefore, on the day that Shanks and the others returned, Lawton made another breakthrough in his swordsmanship and fought with Shanks at the same place. This time, he did not end the battle quickly. Instead, he used all of Shanks 'skills, including Tricolor Domination and Bodywork skills. Then, Lawton was still not satisfied. He fought with everyone else in the Red Hair Guild and completely squeezed out all their remaining value…En, he also learned Luffy's Polymorph and Instant Movement, as well as Makino's Brewing Secrets.
He had even asked Shanks to lend Luffy some money to buy the seed of Zakra. He did not even let go of this item. It could be said that he had learned most of the storyline skills in the entire Windmill Village. Only after confirming that there were no more valuable skills here did he plan to leave. That was why he had to bid farewell today.
"Then, everyone, let's part ways here. Goodbye.”
After saying goodbye to everyone for the last time, Lawton turned around and entered Mount Gorbo…
Wait a minute?
Why was it Mount Gorbo?
Isn't Lawton going out to sea?
Why did he enter the mountain?
The port of Windmill Village and Gorbo Mountain were in two completely opposite directions.
Could it be that Lawton was the same as Sauron and had a bad sense of direction?
Of course not.
Besides, even if Lawton had a bad sense of direction, could Luffy and Shanks also have a bad sense of direction?
Lawton explained to Luffy and Makino that he wanted to cross Gorbo Mountain because the city center of the Kingdom of Goa was located on the other side of Gorbo Mountain. It was far more prosperous than Windmill Village, and he could easily find merchant ships heading to the North Sea there. This way, he would not have to go back and forth to reverse the ship. Moreover, this reason was indeed valid. Windmill Village's dock was too small, and could only dock small and medium-sized merchant ships at most. If one wanted to sail across the sea, they would need at least large merchant ships. There was no one in Windmill Village, so they could only go to the city center to look for it.
However, the real reason was that Lawton wanted to meet Ace and Sabot. After all, they were already in the world of pirates. It would be unreasonable if they did not meet the three main characters.
Besides, he wanted to see if he could swindle some money from Ace and Sabot. He remembered very clearly that Ace and Sabot had started saving money a long time ago in order to go out to sea as pirates. However, this money was taken away by the Sapphire Pirates in order to save Luffy.
"Anyway, you won't be able to save this money until the end. Instead of letting the pirates take advantage of it, it's more appropriate to leave it to me.”
Lawton couldn't help but smile at the thought of making another profit.
Of course, at his level, it didn't matter whether he made money or not. His main goal was to satisfy the addiction of scamming the future protagonist. At the same time, he wanted to arm the two of them. One of them had become the captain of the White Beard Pirates 'Second Division, and the other had become the Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army. Their futures were limitless, and their ultimate goal was to go against the World's Axe…Lawton didn't like the World's Axe, although he didn't want to go against the World's Axe himself. There was no way to go against the World Axe.
[The sixth rule of the Stall Setting System: As an excellent vendor, you should maintain absolute neutrality and never side with anyone.]
However, although he was restricted by the system's rules, it did not mean that Lawton could not be biased. For example, if he wanted to side with one party, he could take the initiative to sell goods to the other party and sell stronger equipment to increase the other party's strength.
Or they could avoid the World Principal Axe Men's search and try their best not to sell anything to the World Principal Axe Men, indirectly weakening their power (Of course, if the World Principal Axe Men insisted on buying Lawton's things, as long as their attitude was not too bad, Lawton would not be able to refuse)... This kind of method of exploiting the system's loopholes was not considered a violation of the system rules. Although the system did not encourage this, it would not punish them.
"D * mn, why is this Gorbo Mountain so difficult to walk?”
Lawton couldn't help but complain as he struggled to cut through the bushes in front of him.
He had been walking on the mountain for a full five hours. He had encountered many wild beasts, but he had not encountered a single living person. What was even more infuriating was that there were countless bushes and bushes along the way, resulting in his clothes being hung up in tatters. He had become a real beggar.
In the original novel, Karp was not in such a sorry state. Didn't you see that when he arrived at Dan's house, his clothes were still neat and tidy? Other than falling into Ace's trap once, he didn't seem to be in a sorry state. There wasn't even a speck of dust on his clothes, let alone a cut.
They had both come from Windmill Village, taken the same path, and traveled at about the same speed. Why was there such a huge difference?
"Looks like I have to find a suitable movement technique as soon as possible.”
The only difference between Lawton and Karp was their flexibility.
Of course, Lawton's speed was not slow. After all, he had the Instant Body Spell and the buffs of the Bull Talisman. His strength was almost endless. Even if he ran around the Red Earth Continent, he would not be exhausted to death. The problem was that the Instant Movement Technique was suitable for long-distance attacks, but not for moving around. This was just like Verdure Glider and Wave Subtle Steps. Although they were both Qinggong, one was used for running while the other was used for dodging. Their effects were completely different.
Especially since Lawton had just learned the Instant Body Spell and was not very familiar with it yet. Now that he was in the mountains, he did not dare to use the Instant Body Spell to hurry along. He could only rush along the way, and his clothes were naturally not in good shape.
