Chapter 21: Chapter 21
Grand Line, Island of Saboundy Archepelago, Area 13, Guild.
Ars who had finished preparing to start a new day again immediately walked down from the second floor. By the time Ars arrived at the first floor which was currently the Guild hall. Ars looked at Rayleigh and Hancock who were already there while talking to each other.
"Yo! You two are very early to come to the Guild hall. Do you guys want to exchange something?" Ars immediately greeted while asking.
"I am here waiting for the person who was called by me to arrive. He'll be here soon." Rayleigh replied calmly.
"Oh? Is he on this Island or is he still on a voyage?" Ars asked again.
"He was just about to set sail from the New World. There is a possibility that it is still under the sea to make a crossing"
Ars nodded with the answer that Rayleigh gave then looked at Hancock who was already standing in front of him, "Yo, Hancock. Good morning. Looks like you had really good luck yesterday."
"Hmph! Of course" Hancock replied proudly, "Even though you didn't help me to get to the large safety zone. I can get there myself."
"Luck is also a part of strength" Ars said with a smile then continued, "So, what brought you here?"
"I want to get a 10 cubic meter storage bracelet as well as ten packets of low grade food and drink" Hancock replied calmly.
"Food and Drink? Don't you already have people preparing food for you?" Ars asked strangely and suddenly thought of something, "Have you previously seen the dishes that are in this Guild through Rayleigh?"
"Yes" Hancock nodded and said wryly, "All men are the same. Everyone is very stingy just because they want to ask for a portion"
"Stingy?" Ars raised his brows then looked at Rayleigh "Didn't you give him one?"
"I already gave him one" Rayleigh said calmly, "However, Hancock wants more. I can't give it more because it's my stock"
"Hmph!" Hancock sniffed discontentedly as she looked up at him, "Didn't I already say that I would exchange it later?"
Rayleigh didn't care about that and continued his leisurely drinking.
"This old man!" Hancock gritted her teeth furiously.
"Okay, okay. There's no need to fight just such a small matter." Ars said with a helpless sigh.
"Small trouble? That's a big problem for me!" Hancock said with a frown then continued "Why don't you change the service rules back, Ars? At least it can open earlier like at 7 am"
"I agree with this too" Rayleigh suddenly added, "It's pretty quiet to sit here and have no drinking buddies"
"Isn't there Hancock who can accompany you?" Ars asked while raising his brow.
"It doesn't matter if she comes. However, she has to prepare her own drink" Rayleigh said casually which made Hancock even more irritated.
"Bastard! Rayleigh! I've always wondered how Shakky could possibly be attracted to you?!" Hancock shouted in annoyance.
"How? Maybe because of my charm?" Rayleigh chuckled softly and happily started teasing Hancock.
"Enough!" Ars immediately said in a commanding tone, "Ok, Hancock. Give me your adventurer card."
"Hmph!" Hancock sniffed in a dissatisfied tone but she still handed her adventurer card to Ars.
Adventure Card
Name : Boa Hancock
Group : Kuja Pirates
Floor : 0
Permission : 8
Crystals : 0 large crystals 2 medium crystals 34 small crystals
"Wow! Quite a lot of crystals that you collected in such a short time with just your strength like this" Ars said in a slightly amazed tone.
"Your words almost sound like mocking me, Ars" Hancock said in a flat tone while looking at Ars.
"That's a compliment, Hancock. If the three of us in this room compared to hunting in the dungeon on the first floor in your short time. Rayleigh and I will probably be able to get more out of it than you. Rayleigh is 3 to 4 times more likely than you. As for me… Well, forget it. The point is that your current strength is still quite weak."
"Hmph!" Hancock felt that she could not accept this even though what Ars said was true.
Ars immediately exchanged the items that Hancock wanted. All the items that Hancock wanted immediately appeared in front of him and were immediately arranged neatly ..
"This is all the stuff you want. I will return your card"
Hancock immediately took her adventurer card then took the storage bracelet and immediately tried it.
"By the way, how are your subordinates doing? They haven't died there, have they?" Ars asked with great interest.
"Of course" Hancock said in a proud tone, "They are all subordinates chosen by me. There's no way they'd die that easily."
"Well, it would be good if they didn't die there" Ars paused and continued, "Just a reminder, Hancock. You better start practicing to improve your strength. It is possible that this place will soon be known by many parties. Right now even the Navy will likely find out about this place soon. If the strength you have is not strong enough at that time. I will not guarantee that the territory you are currently in is likely to be taken by others by force."
"In the future. Surely there will be many groups who want an area they control as their fixed income. Same goes for Rayleigh. It must have been by the time Rayleigh had resurrected Roger. The two of them will take the power of a territory and it is not impossible that you will become their target because the strength you have is quite weak. In addition, if it comes to powerful pirate groups will also participate in the struggle for territory especially the Sea Emperors, Navy, and World Government. You will definitely be immediately displaced by them in a battle for territory. With you removed from where I am today. You wo n't have the steady income you can get with people who aren't from your group hunting. Problems in the dungeon, I will never interfere as long as the matter has nothing to do with the system or anything related to the dungeon. Everything that happens in the dungeon is your own responsibility."
"Hmph! Even if you say that, I will definitely do it anyway." Hancock said in the tone of a Queen who was proud of her own strength.
"If you understand it is a good thing" Ars sighed and continued, "Do you have anything else required of me?"
"What do you want to do?" Hancock asked with great interest.
"Continue reading the book I have. After all, Rayleigh didn't want to exchange goods at the moment and there were no guests at all. There is no work for me to do" Ars shrugged his shoulders.
"You slacker" Hancock said and immediately turned around leaving Ars and Rayleigh who were there to reenter the dungeon.
"Hey, Ares. Hancock's attitude is quite different when talking to you. Do you two have a certain relationship?" Rayleigh asked strangely as he raised his eyebrows.
"Don't think about it ,. Rayleigh. The two of us have no special relationship at all. It's possible that Hancock's change in attitude towards me was only due to respect for the help to heal the scars she had although it can be said that it wasn't more like help than Hancock did it herself and I just facilitated it."
"Hmmm" Rayleigh nodded and suddenly his den-den mushi sounded,
"Rayleigh-san, we've arrived." Shanks' voice immediately came from behind the den-den mushi.
"Oh? Has it arrived? Where did you park your boat?" Rayleigh asked with great interest.
"Our ship is next to the ship belonging to the Kuja pirates" Shanks paused and continued, "Do the Kuja pirates know about the Guild?"
"Yes. It was Shakky who told them about the Guild thing. They have also now managed to find one of the large safe zones on the first floor and now have their own territory."
"Ah! Looks like we were overtaken by another group" Shanks said with a smile.
"Just come right here. I've been waiting for you in the guild hall."
"I see"
Their communication was immediately cut off.
"Yo! I guess my prediction wasn't wrong. The group you invited is the Akagami pirate group, isn't it? Wow, I'm sure this place will soon be crowded with visitors" Ars said with a smile.
"Hahahaha… I think so too" Rayleigh smirked, "There is a possibility that the Marines will also find this place soon as they conduct surveillance on Shanks and his group. I think you should start increasing the size of your place, Ars"
"Well, it seems so. However, I will do it later."
Rayleigh and Ars continued their conversation. The talk itself was only after the adventures Rayleigh had experienced in the dungeon. The two of them were talking just to kill their boredom while waiting for the Akagami pirate group to arrive here.
