Chapter 438 Heading to the Kingdom of Goa
He said he was going to be a bandit or pirate with a lower bounty, but in fact, Arthur just wanted to catch fish in the deep sea and sell them in the capital himself.
He understood very well that when a major incident occurred in the Grand Line, or a conflict between powerful pirate groups was reported in the news, the new pirates in the four seas would be excited, which would lead to a significant increase in the world's crime rate.
People will panic due to the conflict between the pirates, and prices will tend to rise.
Therefore, encountering pirates is inevitable. With the current body, he can't even keep up with the lowest level of Observation Haki.
He still felt that it was not a good idea to confront pirates head-on, but bandits were an option.
Cooper stood on the roof of the remodeled boat, watching Arthur busy on the deck, and suddenly called out, "Cooper." (I won't leave, Arthur, thank you for all the care you have done for me who is about to die. I will always... always... always be by your side.)
"What did it say?" Leia saw Arthur was stunned and looked at Cooper with a smile on her face. She asked curiously, "You seem to be able to understand the language of animals. You have been communicating across species!"
"Words that are important to me," Arthur responded to Leia, continuing to arrange the specially made thick hemp rope.
This time he wants to catch super large fish in the East China Sea, with the size targeting deep-sea fish of at least 7 to 8 meters.
"East China Sea chart, compass, fresh water, and a bucket of fruit." After tying the rope around the house, Arthur stood on the edge of the ship and watched Leia buy a series of necessary items for sailing from the village, and gave instructions.
"Get everything ready. I don't want you to die of vitamin deficiency and necrosis."
"You seem to be very professional in sailing?" Leia felt looked down upon and retorted, "You are only 4 years old, but you always pretend to be an adult."
"Ah..." Arthur sighed, "It takes a day to sail there and a day to sail back. Besides, there may be a storm in the next two days."
It doesn't rain often on the island, but once there is drizzle or light rain, it probably means the sea won't be too calm in the next few days.
Arthur used the sailing experience he had gained in this world throughout his lifetime.
"Then why go out to sea!?" Leia was frightened again when she heard the storm. "With this small boat, we will be buried in the sea, right?"
Seeing that everything was ready, Arthur didn't even want to look at Leia. He went ashore, untied the rope tied to the pillar, and then prepared to set sail.
"Then you should go back, Auntie." Arthur said to her again.
As the boat gradually moved away from the shore, Leia looked back at Arthur, who was raising the sail behind her, and realized that he was serious.
With one step, one leap, the swaying body gradually moved away, and Leia's violently beating heart soon calmed down.
Clearly there was no turning back.
"Humph, a mere storm." After Yang Fan passed, Arthur climbed onto the roof and hugged Cooper, mocking him disdainfully, "You are so nagging when you take the first step. You should just be a country girl and marry an honest man to live with for the rest of your life."
"Kukuku~!" Cooper couldn't help but laugh happily when Arthur hugged him and tickled him.
Leia returned to the deck and squatted in the left corner of the ship with her knees hugged. "This is my first time going out to sea. Can't you say something nice to encourage me?"
"I am a warrior, not good at speaking." Arthur stopped playing with the young Cooper and said, "But you are very brave. You dared to follow me even though you knew there were pirates, bandits, and storms."
Arthur wanted to say something harsh, but he remembered that he had been cold and indifferent all his life in his previous life, and he didn't want to be so serious in his daily life.
"Go, kid, pick a bunch of grapes from the bucket for her to eat." Arthur whispered to Cooper.
Cooper immediately did as he was told, hopping towards the cabin, then grabbed a bunch of grapes and flew to the depressed Leia.
"Huh... Hehe." Leia glanced at Arthur lying on the roof and laughed, "Everything should be based on reality. Haven't you ever fantasized about anything?"
Arthur stared at the blue sky and white clouds, his mind full of desire for a new life, and replied, "I am a person who seeks facts, not a fantasist. I will do what I want to do, and I don't bother to care if I don't want to do it."
"But you are so young, only four years old... Do you have any understanding of this age?" Leia asked again.
It felt like he had hired a talkative little woman, which made Arthur a little impatient, and he replied, "You can think of me as precocious."
Finally, there was a normal answer. Leia nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly asked curiously,
"You said you were a swordsman, why would you say something like that? You're only this age, you probably don't know anything about swordsmanship."
"Ah! Are you sick?" Arthur's head was full of blue veins. He jumped up and stood on the roof, pointing at Leia fiercely, and shouted angrily, "Why are you so talkative! You have to ask everything!"
Leia didn't take it seriously, stuffed a grape into her mouth, and whispered, "Isn't this just curiosity?"
In her heart, Arthur was simply unfathomable.
The four-year-old kids in the village are still playing in the mud, and the four-year-olds are still crying.
But Arthur can pick up girls, drink, brag, and flirt! He can do everything that adults can do.
Is this normal? She thought it was very abnormal. How could a four-year-old child think like this?
It was so unfathomable, like a bottomless abyss, that no matter how hard she tried to figure out Arthur, she could not see what kind of child he was.
But one thing is certain, he is very lustful, there is no doubt about that.
It takes about two hours to go out to sea!
The ship has completely sailed away from the Rapeseed Village Island, and the end of the sea is only the boundless horizon.
Leia went from being ecstatic to suddenly feeling extremely bored, rolling back and forth on the bed in the room.
"Should I do something?" She sat on the bed with her hair messy and looked out the porthole.
Boom! Suddenly, the boat was pulled violently, and the entire boat seemed to be pulled into the depths of the sea.
The noise frightened her so much that she hurried out of the cabin, and the entire ship tilted sharply backwards.
"Arthur, where are you?!" She ran to the stern railing and shouted.
I saw a special hemp rope tightly connected to the deep sea, and it was stretched extremely tight.
Cooper hovered in the sky and kept calling.
As a huge fish dived out of the sea, the sea water formed a curve across the air.
When Leia saw the young figure on the back of the fish that was almost as big as the boat, her eyes bulged out in shock and she shouted, "That's...! A sea monster?!"
The fish under Arthur's seat had a body like a sturdy spindle, with a dark blue back almost black and a silver-white belly that shone with a metallic luster.
The tips of the dorsal and anal fins are bright yellow-blue, and it is undoubtedly a "bluefin tuna".
Moreover, it is a super large one.
Plop! Arthur rode it into the sea, splashing high into the water.
"Arthur!?" Leia leaned against the ship's railing and shouted worriedly towards the sea where Arthur was.
Although Arthur seems carefree, he is only four years old after all. He could die at any time in this situation...
However, a moment later, Leia saw the tuna, which was almost the same size as the boat, flip over and float to the surface.
Sitting firmly on its side was Arthur, who was soaking wet but had a calm expression on his face.
"Although fish are not worth much, this one should be able to sell for hundreds of thousands of Baileys, right?" Arthur followed the rope back to the stern. "After all, rich people love beautiful and big fish like this the most."
"You are born with supernatural powers, Arthur, you little monster." Leia was so shocked to see Arthur calmly return to the ship that her face was covered in cold sweat. She was clearly worried about him just now.
Arthur shook off his soaked T-shirt and thought, "The most valuable things in this world are munitions, ships, and fish. Except for sea kings, which can be worth hundreds of millions of berries, the others are worth only a few million at most because they are so common."
