I'm at the top of One Piece

Perona rolled her eyes at Mercer, picked up her toothbrush and mug, and stood up. "Where's the bathroom? I've never learned this before, it's a talent~ okay."

He pointed to the cubicle inside the room; Garp's room had a single washroom for one person.

After a while.

Mercer brought Perona to the restaurant, which was nearly empty, with only a few marines who had been on duty the night before.

The moment the two entered, they immediately attracted a lot of attention.

However, neither of them paid any attention. After pointing in a direction, Perona went to get her breakfast by herself.

The breakfast was very plentiful.

Balanced nutrition.

It's meat porridge and steamed buns.

I had a wonderful meal.

Perona clutched her lower abdomen, leaned back in her chair, and let out a heavy sigh.

"I'm so full. I haven't eaten this much in the morning in a long time."

Mercer smiled at her. "From now on, you'll have enough to eat every day, unless you don't want to."

Perona listened and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

He nodded slightly.

At that moment, a voice rang out.

"Messer? Are you hungry again?" Bogart walked over and looked at Messer with a smile. "I've been looking for you for a long time. Let's go to the island's trading company to buy some materials."

"You've decided?" Mercer asked, looking surprised. "I thought you were going to refuse."

Bogart chuckled dryly, shifting his gaze to Perona beside Mercer, and exclaimed in surprise:

"Isn't this one of the two girls you recommended yesterday? And where did she come from?"

Mercer looked at Perona and said, “Introduce yourself. His name is Bogart, he’s the second-in-command on the ship, and he’s a nice guy.”

"Halalalalal." Perona covered her mouth and laughed, then stood up and extended her hand to Bogart. "My name is Perona, hello Mr. Bogart."

Bogart curiously reached out to shake hands, but as soon as their hands touched, Perona pulled away immediately. Bogart's eyes twitched, thinking that this girl was also a mischievous one.

Seeing that the two had met, Moses said:

"Now that we've made up our minds, let's go buy the materials and equipment. Did you bring enough, Pele?"

Upon hearing this, Bogart felt a chill run down his spine, remembering that the same question had been asked by this kid back in Puji, and then his wallet had been emptied.

So, he said something similar to what he had said before: "That should be enough."

With a smile, Messer got up and walked outside, and Perona quickly followed.

"Mercy, slow down, my stomach is so full I can't run anymore."

Slow down your pace.

Before long, the three people and a crow were walking down the street, with Bogart leading the way toward the largest merchant guild building in the area.

The Ishu Trading Company is quite well-known throughout the West Sea, conducting trade across multiple sea areas.

This port city is controlled by the Ishu family, and the tallest building in the city is naturally the Ishu Trading Company.

Central area.

I came here with Perona yesterday.

It's not that novel.

A luxurious six-story building appeared.

A red carpet was laid out at the entrance.

Bogart was not wearing a naval uniform, just a simple brown-grey suit.

Arrived at the door.

A waiter approached with a smile:

"Hello, this is the Yishu Merchant Guild. Are you three here to buy something? Our guild has the most comprehensive selection of goods in the entire Western Sea."

If you can imagine it, we have it here.

Moses curled his lip and said directly, "We have money. Do you sell Devil Fruits here? If so, give me ten or eight."

The waiter's face stiffened. A Devil Fruit? What's that? Never heard of it. His expression turned blank.

Seeing this, and considering Mercer's disruptive remarks, Bogart's eye twitched, and he couldn't help but gently squeeze Mercer's shoulder with his right hand, smiling at the waiter:

"Hey, he was joking. We're here to buy some rare metals and forging equipment. Do you have any in stock?"

Upon hearing this, the waiter wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and forced a dry laugh:

"Oh, I see. No wonder, no wonder. Yes, yes, our chamber of commerce has a very comprehensive selection."

Please come in with me.

Now he dared not say that the Chamber of Commerce had everything.

As they walked into the hall with the waiter, Perona reached out and tugged at Mercer's clothes, her eyes full of strangeness, and whispered in Mercer's ear:

"Do you still want to rob them?"

Mercer glared at her, then turned her head and whispered, "Shut up, it won't be good if someone hears you."

Perona covered her mouth and laughed, "Hahahahaha."

Bogart saw the whispers between Mather and Messer and, although he didn't hear them clearly, a hint of envy flickered in his eyes.

This kid is really popular with women.

This girl is clearly a beauty in the making.

Before long, the three people and the crow were taken to the second floor.

The entire second floor is a huge venue with many display cases containing valuable items such as crystal and coral.

Of course, there are still some irregular metal blocks inside.

At this moment, the waiter took a small booklet from a table and respectfully said:

"The rare metals you want are all in this booklet, and they are all numbered. Just tell me which one you like, and I'll take you there."

Moses looked at the table in front of him, where there was paper and pen.

I picked up a pen and paper and started writing and drawing. The paper listed materials such as yellow phosphorus and water, which are the ingredients used to prepare the metal solution.

It also lists forging materials and equipment such as casting hammers, anvils, tongs, spring water, and high-quality coal.

With Xiong Bao not around, I'll have to do the synthesis of these metals myself.

After handing the waiter a list of items, Moses said, "Prepare the items listed here. By the way, do you offer delivery service?"

The waiter glanced at Bogart first, and after seeing him nod, quickly smiled and said:

"Yes, yes, don't worry. We offer delivery service for large orders."

Moses nodded. "Alright, go and have someone prepare."

As he spoke, Mercer inquired about the region where the rare metal minerals were located.

Then they headed there.

I walked past rows of display cases.

Moses looked around curiously, observing the various rare items that would be considered precious by ordinary people. Before long, he stopped in front of a display case marked with one million Berries.

Inside was a piece of jet-black, translucent mineral, about the size of a human head.

"Identification"

【C-grade nickel-iron meteorite (hard)】: A high-purity iron-nickel alloy formed after a meteorite falls to the ground, possessing high strength, high toughness, and corrosion resistance.

The goods have been shipped.

Moses' eyes lit up with joy.

Without saying a word, he took out the piece of meteorite iron from the display case.

"I'll take this one."

Ignoring Bogart's questioning gaze, Messer continued browsing, visiting each display case and soon finding several pieces of rare metal in rather good condition.

It's just not as eye-catching as meteorite iron.

An hour later.

At the entrance of the Chamber of Commerce, Bogart looked helpless. He had spent nearly six million Berries just by going in and out.

If I hadn't made those gains two years ago, it's hard to say whether I could afford it now.

At this moment, there was already a cart at the door, loaded with materials and equipment that Mercer needed.

Bogart glanced at it curiously and asked, "Why are there gas masks inside?"

Mercer said speechlessly, "Metal solution is a chemical composition that I have to synthesize and prepare myself. It's toxic at high temperatures, so I have to protect myself."

A string of chemical ingredients came out of his mouth, leaving Bogart completely bewildered. He waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "I was wrong, I was just asking, I didn't mean anything by it."

Upon hearing this, Messer pursed his lips: "I'm not lying to you. With these materials, there will definitely be some left over after you reforge a sword. I'll make you another short sword, and the remaining materials are mine."

Let me make this clear first, so you won't think I, Mercer, am acting unfairly later.

Bogart smiled wryly:

"What kind of person do you take me for? I know that craftsmen are involved in these kinds of material matters, and you're not the only one doing it; other craftsmen do the same thing."

Some craftsmen even state before forging that famous swords have only a 10-20% success rate, and that materials are not returned if the forging fails.

Mercer pondered for a moment, then glanced back at Bogart. "So you're saying I'm actually in a good position? How about we go in and buy a few more, to give you extra insurance for your weapon forging?"

Bogart's face turned green upon hearing this, and he couldn't help but retort, "What did you just say? You said it would succeed."

"Tch, that was hasty."

Perona covered her mouth and chuckled to herself.
