One Piece My Partner is Too Crooked - Chapter 39
Windmill Village, Mount Colubo, Bandit Dan’s base grassland.
“What did you say? That bastard named Icey ran away with people and shops?!”
Ace angrily punched the ground, his young heart instantly filled with the dangers and filth from the adult world.
“What, what’s wrong? Although Icey occasionally beats people and serves overnight beef to customers, he’s a good cook!”
Sitting opposite, Luffy looked puzzled.
On the second day of Icey’s departure with Ace and Ace, the Red Hair Pirates left Windmill Village, and Shanks handed over the Straw Hat as a symbol of inheritance to Luffy.
Coincidentally, the Navy hero Kapu returned home for vacation just as the Red Hair Pirates left.
Due to their different identities, he deliberately avoided meeting Shanks, a pirate.
After learning about the tavern incident, Kapu sent Luffy, shouting about becoming the Pirate King, to Bandit Dan’s place.
It’s unclear what the old man was thinking, handing his grandson, who wanted to become a pirate, over to bandits for care.
Perhaps out of trust in Dan, because Luffy ate the Devil Fruit, or maybe he acted impulsively…
So, Luffy, sent to Dan’s family, coincidentally initiated a conversation with the aloof Ace because of Icey.
“A swindling scoundrel, how could he be a good person!”
At this point, Ace’s bond with Luffy wasn’t particularly deep; he just thought this kid was too naive to realize when he was being deceived.
“Huh?”
Luffy, scratching his head, didn’t understand why the slightly older boy in front of him was so angry.
“When I become a pirate and set sail, you better not get caught by me!”
Ace clenched his fist, remembering that cunning man.
“Do you want to be a pirate, too? Me too! I want to become the Pirate King!”
Hearing the word “pirate,” Luffy’s eyes lit up.
“Pirate King,” to Ace now, was like fueling the fire.
Glancing at the naive Luffy, he stood and walked toward the beast-infested mountains and forests.
“Don’t follow me anymore; we’re from two different worlds.”
Completely oblivious to Ace’s impatience, Luffy quickly followed.
Shortly afterward, they would experience the “Bluejam Incident” with Sabo and toast to their brotherhood…
On the other side, in the East Blue, on the sea, on the restaurant ship Infinite Dream.
Sitting leisurely at the front desk drinking tea, Icey suddenly sat up straight.
He finally remembered the strange feeling he had when leaving Windmill Village and what it was pointing to.
Busy discussing hegemony issues with the Red Hair Pirates at the time and dealing with the constantly causing trouble, Aqua had to prepare for the departure in advance.
In the midst of all this, he forgot about it!
“Forget it; Ace and Sabo are mature enough; they’ll understand.” Icey sighed.
There was no need to go back now; they would set sail in the future anyway, and compensation could be given then.
“Icey Icey! Come and see, this goddess finally caught a fish!”
The sound of footsteps came, and Aqua, squatting on the second deck fishing for half a day, ran over.
She shook the fish in her hand, her eyes shining with pride: “What I want to do, I can do it!”
Icey looked at the fish with both eyes blind and replied, lacklusterly, “Impressive, impressive, truly the great Aqua.”
“Darn it! What’s with that disdainful look in your eyes? I caught it, I caught a fish!” Aqua emphasized loudly.
“So I said you’re quite impressive.”
Ignoring her emphasis, Icey looked down at the newspaper in his hand about the Grand Line.
Although they were in the East Blue, getting newspapers from other places with a little extra money was easy.
(Original Luffy’s incidents on the Grand Line and in the New World are known to the people of Windmill Village, so this is the setting here.)
?The Sun Pirates, a pirate crew formed purely by Fish-Men, the extremely wicked pirate Fisher Tiger who caused a slave riot in Mariejois, finally received justice and died yesterday?
?Famous stage actress Victoria Cindry, unfortunately, fell off the stage during a performance and died despite rescue efforts?
“Tiger was a true man who rescued countless racial slaves, but in the news, he’s just a wicked pirate. Truly, under the rule of the World Government of the Celestial Dragons.” Icey couldn’t help but sarcastically comment on the Celestial Dragons’ actions.
The current News King Morgans seems to not have that tough stance, ignoring the opposition of the Five Elders, forcibly publishing Nico Robin’s image.
Since Tiger died at this time, Jinbe will soon accept the World Government’s invitation and become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
And the detained Fish-Man Arlong will be released without charge and bring the Arlong Pirates to the East Blue, occupying Cocoyasi Village!
As for Victoria Cindry, if I remember correctly, she should be the beautiful actress turned into a zombie by Moria.
In this way, the terrifying three-dimensional sailboat currently in the Devil’s Triangle of the Grand Line must have just been established.
These are two valuable pieces of information that can be used in the future.
Icey kept it in mind and put down the newspaper, and Aqua was still there, showing off the fish in her hand.
“Alright, Aqua, since you caught it, let’s have sour cabbage fish for dinner.”
“How can that be? I want to keep it in the fish tank; maybe by this time next year, there will be little fish to eat!”
“That fish is blind in both eyes; you expect it to have little fish; besides, if you want to eat fish, just go fishing; it’s not like it takes all day to catch one; what are you worried about?”
“You jerk! Are you mocking me?! Just wait; this goddess will catch another one for you right now!”
…
The boring and monotonous sea voyage passed amidst the quarrels between the dual-colored hegemony and the idiotic goddess.
Strangely, since Icey exchanged his bounty at the Navy branch, fewer pirates came to the door for meals.
The only pirate crew, very obediently paid for their meals, completely lacking the determination and backbone of pirates.
This slightly disappointed Icey.
But with over twenty million assets in hand, it satisfied the requirements of the wishing pool and daily life needs, so he didn’t pay much attention to it.
Two days later, on the horizon of the boundless sea, the silhouette of an island finally appeared.
The area where the Buggy Pirates operated, the Organ Islands, has arrived!
