Chapter 430 Fishing

Arthur was sitting at the bar, with half of his head just over the bar, revealing a pair of eyes, and he pointed at the girl's chest with his right hand, which looked very awkward.

"..." The little girl looked down at her breasts, then she realized that there was a dark shadow on her face and the corners of her mouth twitched.

"You have!" Arthur's voice came again, "If you don't give me wine, I want milk!"

Just treat it as the innocent words of children, commonly known as the "newbie protection period". If you use it perfectly, you can do whatever you want on the moral level.

The guests in the bar in the early morning were all stunned. They had never seen a child teasing a woman before and found it very strange.

Thinking about how young Arthur was and how he could make a tiger submit, they kept silent and just watched the show.

"Minors are not allowed to drink! There is no…" The little girl was irritated and shouted at Arthur with all her strength, "Milk!!!"

Her name is Leia and she is sixteen years old.

When her parents were alive, she had a good personality and was the daughter of an ordinary family.

She has an average appearance, but is quite delicate compared to other girls. She has long black hair and a piece of cloth wrapped behind her head to block the grease. She is staring at Arthur menacingly.

Arthur watched with calm eyes as she stopped yelling at him, and then said, "Then buy me a glass of orange juice."

It is normal for some taverns to be out of milk. In this seafaring civilization, orange juice is almost a must.

Leia expertly squeezed out a glass of orange juice and placed it on the bar in front of Arthur, "50 Baileys."

"Money?" Arthur laughed inexplicably when he heard the other party asking for a price.

He hasn't had the concept of money for a long time.

Arthur drank the orange juice in two gulps, then turned and walked out of the pub. "I'll pay tonight. I don't have any money on me right now."

Leia quickly called out to him, "I'm just an employee... you have to pay..."

Before he finished speaking, Arthur's small figure had disappeared in the tavern.

This was the first time she had encountered such a thing as being forced to eat and drink. She clenched her hands together, looked at the guests in the tavern somewhat helplessly, then lowered her head and took out a few Baileys from her waist bag and put them into the cabinet behind the counter.

"Strange little devil..."

The stars are like the sea, surging and surging.

Arthur walked out of the pub and looked up at the early morning sky.

In the darkness of this world, the sea is not shrouded in darkness, and no movement can be seen on the sea at a glance.

But it is clear under the bright moon.

The moonlight is not pure, but condensed into liquid silver, winding and flowing on the surging ink waves, rising and falling with the waves, as if pulsating with life.

Arthur took small steps to the pier steps and sat down.

Nearby, the crest of the wave shattered the moonlight, splashing countless tiny points of light that lingered in the air, like fireflies and dust, slowly drifting with the wind.

"Really back..." Arthur whispered softly, the hot tears in the corners of his eyes already wet his eyes.

The comfortable sea breeze reflects the swaying waves in the moonlight.

There is also a peaceful village, and everything has returned to the starting point.

There is no longer the smell of blood in my nose, my eyes no longer need to remain cold, and I no longer need an armor of indifference.

Arthur sat here from early morning until dawn, and the villagers woke up one by one and began to busy themselves with their own labor and work.

In the cool morning, the village chief woke up and was busy submitting administrative documents to the Kingdom of Goa at home.

"Four years old? I've never seen one before, and it's definitely not a transfer..." The village chief was filling out the household registration list of Arthur's village, muttering to himself.

"Isn't it a little too outrageous that such a big tiger can listen to him? Does that little devil have any super powers?"

dong dong dong-

There was a knock on the door outside, interrupting his thoughts, and he got up and went to open the door.

As soon as he opened the door, he looked around, and when he didn't see anyone, he yelled, "Who is it?!"

"Me!" Arthur stood at his feet and glared at him fiercely, "Have you prepared the compensation I want? I need to move in today."

The village chief looked down and saw that the person knocking on the door was Arthur, who had caused a commotion in the village yesterday.

Arthur’s first impression on the village chief was that he was a tough guy!

Forgetting the official documents in the house, he thought about Arthur's ability to tame wild beasts, so he had to put down his official business and take Arthur to the house built at the entrance of the forest.

ten minutes later--

In front of the newly built house at the forest entrance, the village chief pointed at the house and said to Arthur beside him,

"You can live here. As a matter of fact, you are not allowed to let the wild animals in the mountains come to the village to hurt people. Also, your boat will be moored at the pier at pier number 19."

The village chief muttered to himself as he spoke to Arthur, his eyes occasionally looking around at the surrounding woods.

Listening to the village chief's words, Arthur opened the door and walked into the house to take a look around.

There are only wooden furniture, wardrobes, beds, tables and so on, and the rest is empty.

Overall, I am quite satisfied. At least I have a place to stay.

"The rest is up to you. I don't have the time to take care of a kid who can take care of himself. The market is at the dock. If you have anything, you can go there to sell it."

The village chief left the place, fearing that the tiger would come out and eat him.

"The East China Sea is like this. Everything is relatively backward, so it is called the weakest sea." Arthur said inside the house.

Although this village is not as good as those countries in the Grand Line with a large gap in civilization and technology.

At least have its own management and economic system.

After visiting the house, Arthur left, picked up a piece of foxtail grass at the door, put it in his mouth and walked towards the No. 19 pier pillar.

Coming to the No. 19 pillar where the ships were docked, Arthur calmly looked at the ship that didn't even have a sail.

Rather than a boat, it is more like a boat about five meters long, but wider than a boat.

Arthur jumped on it and measured it. It was five meters long and one meter wide, with two oars in the middle.

"Well, it's something I got for free, so I should be content for now." Arthur untied the hemp rope on the boat pole.

Then he sat in the middle and slid the boat with his hands to go to the near sea with other fishing boats to prepare for fishing.

"Hey! Is he crazy? Is he going to the deep sea area?"

"There's not even a sail... We won't be able to return once the wind picks up!"

"Come back soon, little devil!"

After sailing for about ten minutes, some fishing boats dared to fish in the sea within 100 meters.

Arthur rowed directly to the deep sea area a hundred meters away, paying no attention to their reminders.

He lowered the rudder to stop the boat, held a foxtail grass in his mouth and dived into the deep sea.

Plop! Arthur disappeared on the boat.

Such an action is undoubtedly tantamount to suicide in the eyes of the villagers who go out to sea to fish.

But in a moment, they saw splashes of water on the sea.

Looking closely, he saw Arthur struggling in the water while holding a fish that was several times larger than him.

The villagers rubbed their eyes, unable to believe what they saw. They usually used nets to catch fish, but they had never seen anyone catching fish with humans.

"Water is really good..."

Soon, Arthur struggled to knock the three-meter-long fish unconscious with a wooden stick, and dragged it onto the boat, gasping for breath.

"This is also part of the training..." Arthur panted.

With his current physical condition and strength, catching this kind of fish in the sea would make him exhausted just by catching one.

"No..." Arthur lay on the deck, looking at the big fish that had fainted beside him, "This is its eating standard after several decades... Isn't this a bit too big for Cooper now?"

After thinking for a while, Arthur decided to catch a few and sell them at the market.

"I've been killing for too long. This kind of daily life is quite comfortable." Arthur took a break and dived into the sea again.
