One Piece: The World King Who Emerged from the White Town

It has to be said that the bald homeless man is quite clear-headed; he knows how to take advantage of the situation and hasn't thought about keeping it all to himself.

The long-haired homeless man who had caused all this also got excited. He had only thought about spreading the news so he could kill those two brats, but he hadn't thought about all that.

Chapter Nine is right, he's definitely not a good person.

"Huh? Who threw that banana?"

Just as these homeless people began to dream about a bright future, a banana was suddenly thrown out of nowhere and landed right in front of them.

One of the homeless men, who was a bit greedy, immediately squatted down and picked it up, grinning foolishly.

Just as he was about to peel the skin, a sudden burst of firelight instantly obscured his entire vision.

Boom!

A seemingly ordinary banana just exploded!

The loud noise and rising smoke terrified many people nearby, who fled in panic. But one figure did the opposite.

Why are you forcing me to do this?

"If you simply wanted revenge, so many people probably wouldn't have died. Why did you have to notice things you shouldn't have seen? Why did you have to be so ruthless?"

Abel stood at the entrance of the alley, looking at the horrific explosion scene inside, his expression unchanged.

No one expected that he would launch a surprise attack.

Abel's original plan was simply to follow these people, find their hideout, and then quietly kill the long-haired vagrant who wasn't going to let the matter rest.

Unexpectedly, he overheard the conversation of these bastards while hiding at the alley entrance, and a murderous intent immediately arose in his heart!

If they really let the other side succeed, he and Luo will probably have a hard time escaping the country alive.

So, in order to protect himself and also to avenge Luo, he had no other choice.

Of the eight homeless men, seven were killed instantly by the explosion. Only the long-haired homeless man was lucky enough to be positioned slightly to the outside, and had two "human shields" in front of him, which saved his life.

But when he saw the person's face, his eyes immediately lit up with terror.

"No...please don't kill me!"

"I promise, I really won't say anything... Waaah..."

A grown man started crying in an attempt to save his life.

Abel paused for a moment, then turned and left, seemingly truly ready to let the other party go?

Just as the long-haired homeless man's face lit up with joy, a banana fell from the sky and landed right in his arms.

"Do not……"

boom! ! !

Since things have already blown up so much, what difference does it make whether we blow it up once or twice?

Abel's cold figure quickly disappeared into the distance.

By the time the security team arrived, the scene was already a mess.

Various severed limbs and collapsed walls were mixed together, making it impossible to piece together even a complete corpse.

The smell of the charred corpse was particularly unpleasant, causing many people to feel nauseous and turn pale as soon as they got close.

Although after some investigation, it was determined that the deceased were all homeless people whom no one cared about.

However, because the method of the crime was so heinous (it involved a bomb), the higher-ups issued a strict order to find the murderer.

Otherwise, what if the murderer is in a bad mood one day and throws a bomb in a crowded place? That would be the end of everything.

Captain Jess, upon receiving the order, also looked rather grim.

You should know that these homeless people who died, though insignificant, were the ones who had to pay him tribute every month and act as his informants, occasionally doing some dirty, unsavory things for him.

Now that most of them have died, how could he not be furious!

"Investigate! Investigate thoroughly!"

"Bring back everyone in the vicinity who might have witnessed the crime scene!"

"Also, send someone to the black market to find out who Old Jack has been selling bombs to lately. Is he tired of living?"

Amidst the chaos and confusion, Abel and Law found themselves in an extremely dangerous situation once again.

……

late at night.

Abel secretly sneaked into the hospital and took some medicine and bandages. He was almost discovered, but fortunately, he escaped unharmed.

By the time they returned to the woods where they were hiding, it was almost dawn.

"I don't know which of these medicines is effective, so I just took a little of each. Can you tell the difference yourself?"

Luo had already woken up. Although his injuries looked frightening, most of them were external wounds. Fortunately, he had done his best to protect his vital organs, otherwise he might have been beaten to death by then and wouldn't have survived until Abel came looking for him.

"These two medicines are for external use, this one is for internal use... and this one is for reducing inflammation..."

"Alright, as long as it works, it's not a wasted trip."

Because Luo is now unable to move easily, only Abel can apply the medicine to him.

At a time like this, there were no rules to follow, so Abel simply bound Lot up like a mummy and used up all the bandages he had brought, without even considering what to do next time he needed to change the dressing.

After all, he has done enough. If Luo can't hold on even after all this, then he must have been blind and invested in the wrong target.

"Thank you."

Although Abel's application of the medicine was rough and he was tied up like a mummy, Luo still thanked him earnestly.

This was the second time he had been saved by the other party.

Abel didn't stand on ceremony and lay down on the grass, gazing at the stars. "No need for thanks. Remember, you already owe me two lives."

"Take it whenever you want. My life isn't worth much anyway. Isn't your family in business? Why do you always do these kinds of unprofitable deals?"

"Losing money now doesn't mean you'll lose money later. What I'm doing is long-term investing. What do you, a doctor's son, know?"

Abel scoffed, then took out an apple, put it in his mouth, and took a big bite.

Mmm, it's fucking sweet!

Gulu...Gulu...

Luo's stomach immediately growled, clearly indicating that he was also very hungry.

However, he stubbornly refused to speak, not because he was embarrassed, but because he didn't want to put Abel in a difficult position.

After all, he is currently unable to move around and cannot help in any way. Giving the limited food to the only person capable of moving is the right choice.

Simply put, it's a waste to give him that food!

Luo didn't speak, and Abel seemed to pretend he hadn't heard the commotion. He devoured the large apple in a few bites, not wasting a single bit.

Then... he took out another apple.

Luo swallowed a few times quietly.

Abel, however, seemed oblivious and continued eating alone.

Soon, he also devoured the second apple.

then……

As if by magic, he produced a third apple.

At this point, Luo finally couldn't hold back any longer.

"Is this apple of yours... sweet?"

"It has to be sweet!"

As if afraid that Luo wouldn't believe him, Abel immediately took another big bite right in front of him, and juices splattered everywhere, it was so fresh!

"..."

Rhodes, who was lying on the ground cosplaying as a mummy, became a little withdrawn.

When I asked you if it was sweet, did I really mean it?!

How come I can't hear the voice-over?

Seeing Luo's sullen face, Abel finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Upon hearing Abel's laughter, Luo finally realized that the guy was deliberately teasing him!

"Damn it... Waaah..."

A large, round apple was stuffed directly into Luo's mouth, silencing his next words.

"Eat your apple, and remember not to show off next time."

These apples, given to the doctor by someone unknown, were left untouched. Abel happened to see them as he passed by and took them.

Chapter Ten: The Arms Deal

After some investigation, Captain Jess's men found several witnesses who said they saw children running out of the alleyway at the scene of the incident shortly before the explosion.

Someone else happened to see the homeless men following a child into the alley.

These statements all point to the same goal.

This clue is very important!

Captain Jess didn't believe it was a coincidence; there was definitely something wrong with those two kids.

It wasn't that he was convinced the other person was the murderer, but his intuition told him that the two children must know something.

Otherwise, he really couldn't think of anyone who would deliberately cause trouble for a few homeless people; those few good-for-nothings combined weren't even worth a bomb!

So he had someone draw up some simple wanted posters based on the limited information he had, hoping to find the two children as soon as possible and find out what happened.
