Naruto: I am Ninja World Ghost Story, who are you?

"Rubber...rocket!"

With a whoosh, Luffy's entire body shot upwards. Just when everyone thought the other party would catch the giant bird and share it, Luffy's head landed steadily on the tip of the bird's beak, as if he were the food.

Everyone:......

"Holy crap! This kid is a genius! Hahahaha—" Mitarashi Anko laughed so hard her stomach hurt, clutching her stomach and laughing until tears streamed down her face.

"No...that's not the problem right now!! This big brother is going to die!" Nawaki frantically got up, but didn't know how to save Luffy high in the sky.

"Don't worry, he's a Devil Fruit user, he won't die that easily." Kurenai Yuhi knew that people in this world were very resilient, and since the other party was a Devil Fruit user whose body seemed to be able to extend like rubber, he must be a user of the Gum-Gum Fruit.

"Miss Hong is right. Instead of rescuing a freeloader, we should go fishing..."

Just then, Zoro started rowing hard, accelerating the sailboat toward the giant bird.

After being interrupted by Zoro's actions, Hancock couldn't help but ask, "Is there a rope to hang on that strong guy? That way our ship can reach the next town faster."

Three people: ...

Where did you come from, you demon?

Rope Tree formed hand seals: "Shadow Clone Technique."

He planned to use the Rasengan that Jiraiya had taught him, but his training level was clearly inferior to Naruto's, and he could only use Shadow Clones to help him use it.

"Using the Rasengan positioned beneath the hull, and chakra as a high-speed rotating propulsion engine..."

Two Rasengan appeared behind the sailboat, and with the combined output of Rope Tree and Shadow Clone, the sailboat began to accelerate forward rapidly.

Zoro, who had just saved three people in distress, was still oblivious when he heard a buzzing sound behind him. His hands moved like blurs as he frantically rowed his oars.

However, the next second, a larger sailboat brushed past him from the side, and he only heard Rope Tree's voice when the sailboat had moved away.

"Big brother, we'll go ahead and wait for you!"

"???" Zoro's eye twitched as he looked at the sailboat that was almost a ship in front of him. "Wait... what's wrong with you guys?!"

The three stranded men took the opportunity to pull out knives, which prompted Zoro, who was already sullen and annoyed, to teach them a lesson by changing the object of their paddle.

......

"That bird is so slow, it's not even as fast as us." After parking the sailboat in the harbor of Orange Town, Rope Tree shielded his eyes from the sunlight and looked up at the big pink bird that was carrying Luffy in its beak.

"Let's not talk about that now, let's go eat. I should have known better than to show off yesterday and ask the navy or the residents for some food to take away..." Hongdou rubbed her rumbling stomach. Normally, she would have already ordered a red bean soup and three-color meatball set meal by now.

Hancock's expression changed drastically. "I suddenly thought of a question..."

Kurenai Yuhi's heart skipped a beat when she saw Hancock's solemn and serious face. She then looked around at the peaceful street. "What's wrong? Are there enemies?"

"I have no money..."

"Oh, this is nothing~ I brought my wallet." Nawaki, the honest man, took out his wallet from his backpack, which contained banknotes and coins, but they were all from the Land of Fire.

Red Bean and Sunset Glow: ...

"Junior brother, you idiot! This isn't the Land of Fire!!" Mitarashi Anko tapped her clever junior brother on the head and said angrily, "It's okay! We're pirates! We'll just rob them! The pirates in the Land of Water seem to just rob fishermen, isn't this place different?"

She looked at Hancock.

Hancock also looked like she suddenly realized something: "I don't usually rob ordinary people when I go out. I forgot about that for a moment. I was careless."

Kurenai Yuhi: ......

"Isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Kurenai Yuhi had never done anything like robbery before, so she found it hard to accept.

"Absolutely not! I'm a member of the Dark Night, representing justice, how could I..."

"Then you sleep on the street, and we'll go find someone to rob first."

Seeing Kurenai reluctantly follow the two, Rope Tree, left alone in front of her, seemed to feel a sense of helplessness, as if a gust of wind had blown by.

"Wait for me! What if there are pirates we can rob? We don't necessarily have to rob innocent civilians!"

"Good idea. Let's ask around and then capture him for the reward. That way we'll have money. You're not too stupid, as expected of your junior brother."

"Hehe~"

"I think the East Blue is so weak that there shouldn't be many pirates, let alone pirates being valuable. It would be good if they could get a few hundred thousand or a million Berries."

"That's better than nothing. Let's look for it first. I really don't want to be a robber."

Chapter 132 Even Lucky Color Haki Can't Save Buggy!

Upon entering Orange Town, Hancock finally found a small restaurant that was still open thanks to her Observation Haki. She took the opportunity to ask the owner about the town's deserted state or whether there were any bounty hunters in the vicinity. However, the owner's words immediately made Hancock feel ashamed.

"A great pirate with fifteen million? Really...?" Hancock stared at her boss in disbelief.

Even if the value of the Berries has depreciated in the past two years, it shouldn't be enough to see a guy with a bounty of 15 million suddenly appear in the East Blue, where the average bounty used to be around 2 million!

Worried that Hancock wouldn't believe him, the boss took out countless newspapers with various portraits and bounties, and pulled out a picture of a clown to show Hancock.

"Here. A bounty of fifteen million is considered a great pirate in the East China Sea."

"They're in town right now, they've taken over our town. If you bounty hunters are so capable, you can try to catch them." The restaurant owner pointed in a direction, "Just walk straight down this street from the restaurant and you'll see them."

"Wow—" Rope Tree's eyes turned to money, and he asked curiously, "Speaking of which, how much of the Land of Fire's currency is 15 million Berries?"

Hancock pondered for a moment, then glanced at the restaurant menu's prices. "1 to 10, I guess."

"One and a half million! This is an S-rank mission!" Rope Tree was immediately excited.

Unexpectedly, he was able to skip the intermediate CBA and go directly to S-level without ever having officially carried out a C-level mission!

The restaurant owner scratched his head with his finger. "Aren't you getting a little too cocky? Do you even know who you're trying to catch? That's..."

“It’s alright, uncle. Our bounty is higher than his, we’ll definitely beat him,” Kurenai Yuhi explained politely.

"I see...that's true..."

"?"

The restaurant owner's mind went completely blank when he heard the four of them discussing how to split the money.

"Wait, wait!" The restaurant owner interrupted the four people's conversation the moment he came to his senses.

The four looked at the restaurant owner.

"You...you just said...you have a bounty?"

Mitarashi Anko nodded slightly: "Yes, is there a problem?"

At this moment, the diners in the restaurant all stopped eating, and the restaurant owner was no longer at ease.

He swallowed hard, his face contorted in terror, and his usually steady voice began to tremble: "You...are pirates?"

A pirate with a bounty exceeding 15 million is undoubtedly a more powerful pirate in the East Blue!

“That’s right, we’re from the Justice Pirates. Didn’t the newspaper say that there’s a bounty of 100 million if someone is confirmed to be a member of the Justice Pirates?” Seeing her boss’s nervous expression, Mitarashi Anko thought he didn’t believe her, so she immediately took out an old newspaper from her backpack and pointed to one of the articles.

Meanwhile, the newspaper also featured Hancock's portrait, with a string of zeros below that the restaurant owner couldn't possibly see them all.

But the next second after he looked up, he understood.

"Five hundred million?!"

The moment the restaurant owner finished speaking, the entire restaurant fell silent. All the diners stared wide-eyed, forgetting to swallow the food in their mouths.

After a minute of silence, Hancock seemed to understand something, and touched her beautiful face: "In the end, it's because I'm too beautiful."

The voice broke the silence, and Kurenai rolled her eyes, internally complaining, "This isn't because of your looks, it's clearly because she's scared off by your bounty!"

The restaurant owner, trembling like a Parkinson's patient, pulled out all the money he could afford from under the counter, pleading, "Please, don't kill me."

Five hundred million.

This is not a small number in the new world at this time, let alone in the weakest East China Sea, where the per capita income is currently around three million.

Everyone was so frightened by the bounty that they took out all the money they had on them.

As for running away, ordinary people aren't stupid.

A few million or tens of millions might offer a glimmer of hope, but what does five hundred million even mean...?

It's not worth dying here for a little money!

boom! boom! boom!

The diners all kowtowed and knelt down, begging for mercy.

Please, don't kill us!

The three, who had never been pirates, fell silent.

A bit exaggerated.

Are pirates in this world really that disgusting and terrifying?

Seeing this, Hancock touched her fair and flawless chin and looked up at the restaurant owner with her beautiful eyes.

Even though the restaurant owner's eyes were initially fixed on Hancock, he dared not look at her at this moment, his heart filled with dread over the five hundred million bounty.

"I am merciful, but my companion and I are a little hungry now..."

"Understood!" The restaurant owner quickly brought out fine wine and food to entertain the four.

The three men's mouths twitched as they watched Hancock eat the food without any suspicion, seeing the previously empty table now filled with delicious food.

In fact, Hancock has the ability to use 'ki', and her Observation Haki is even more powerful, so she can naturally tell whether or not she has been poisoned.

"Eat up, then go see that great pirate. I haven't seen a 'great pirate' in ages, I just hope it's not those two idiots again."

Rope Tree picked up his fork and looked at the fried noodles in front of him. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at the other people in the restaurant, who were all trembling and prostrating themselves, not daring to get up.

For a moment, the young boy's mood became somewhat heavy.

"you..."

"Don't kill me! Mom—"

A little girl was so frightened by the 'terrifying' rope tree that she leaned against her mother.

boom! boom! boom!

The mother frantically kowtowed, pleading, "Please don't kill my child. Please..."

Rope Tree: "......"

I'm a good person...

As Nawaki watched Hancock and her senior sister enjoy the boss's food with a clear conscience, the boy's dissatisfaction grew.

"Hey! I think..."

The sound of the rope tree startled the mother so much that she banged her head even harder, drawing blood.

Kurenai couldn't bear to watch any longer, so she used the Body Flicker Technique to appear in front of her mother and stop her from taking any further action.

"That's enough. We may be pirates, but we haven't gone so far as to kill people indiscriminately."

"Really...really?" Even though the little girl's mother had bumped her head, she still looked somewhat incredulous. There were actually good people among the pirates.

"Of course. We just came here because we were hungry and wanted to eat, and maybe catch a pirate on the side. You can put your wallets and money away now."

Kurenai's voice echoed throughout the restaurant. Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Finally, the restaurant owner carefully picked up his savings and put it back in the cabinet. Seeing that the two people eating and the silent boy did not move, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, the others also tried to get up, swallowing hard with every movement, afraid of disturbing the group.

Three minutes later, Hongdou, her face covered in food, patted her belly and said, "I'm full~"

"I'm full too." Hancock took out a handkerchief and wiped her mouth.

Rope Tree, who hadn't eaten a single bite, was a little annoyed.

We...we clearly call ourselves members of a righteous pirate crew...but now we've lost our voice of justice...

Kurenai took out some medicine from her backpack and applied it to the mother's wounds. She returned to her seat and began eating her share. "When the pirates are caught, we'll hand them over to you as our apology."

It's only 15 million. We can ask for some food to go to the next town. Who knows, there might be pirates with even higher bounties there.

Seeing that Nawaki wasn't eating, seemingly proving his determination, Kurenai said in a low voice, "Eat quickly, we still have things to do, have you forgotten?"

Upon hearing this, Nawaki opened and closed his mouth, but in the end, he listened to Kurenai and started eating.

"this..."

Upon hearing Kurenai's explanation, the people in the restaurant exchanged bewildered glances. They hadn't expected these pirates to be so kind, and for a moment they couldn't tell whether they were real or fake pirates.
