Vol 4 Chapter 148: Where's my boat

"Asshole, are you stealing money?"
Hearing this tavernkeeper’s offer, Beckman jumped up immediately. This is more than a lion’s big mouth. The tavern with these pieces of rotten wooden planks would dare to ask for it. Wouldn’t it be possible to use some bricks? I would dare to be hundreds of millions.
The tavern owner's face became cold and he hummed softly, "This is already a very fair price. You have affected my business. Do you want to fall back on the bill?"
"I can't do it even if I'm wrong..." Beckman was grabbed by Shanks before he finished speaking.
He walked to the tavern owner and smiled, "No problem, the price of eight million Baileys is very reasonable, but I always don't carry any money. How do you think this is used to offset the account?"
He said that he fumbled in his arms for a while, and finally took out a shining jewel, about the size of the fingernail of a thumb.
"En?" The tavernkeeper uttered a nasal sound, and after receiving it, he checked it carefully. After a while, he suspiciously asked, "The top grade of Diamond Island?"
"Good eyesight." Shanks smiled and praised.
The so-called Diamond Island is somewhere in the new world in the second half of the Great Waterway. Legend has it that the entire island is made up of various diamonds. As long as you arrive, you can get countless wealth.
It’s just that the location of this island is too remote and there are no fixed coordinates at all. Even the big sea pirates in the new world are rarely able to reach it, and it takes great strength to mine these hard diamonds after arriving. Few people have been there.
But all of this is not a problem for the Roger Pirates. As the only Pirates who conquered a great channel, they have visited basically any dangerous and mysterious place. Diamond Island is no exception.
It’s just that Roger is not interested in this kind of place full of "hard stones". He stayed there soon and then left. As for the diamonds, the people on the boat ran out some of them at will. Shanks’s was still thrown by others. his.
"This is just enough to compensate for the loss." The tavern owner put away the gems, and then waved impatiently. It was obvious that he was chasing guests.
For troublemakers like Shanks and Beckman, he doesn’t want to see it again for a moment. The most important thing is that he can’t see through Shanks’s strength, but years of sailing experience and intuition tell him it’s better not to be easy. Hands on.
Pirates are mostly a group of superstitious people, the older the more so.
Beckman stepped forward and snorted coldly to express his disdain for the boss. His attitude towards Shanks has changed a lot. He said solemnly, "Anyway, thank you for the red-haired guy this time."
"Hey, I have a name. I should have told you my name is Shanks."
Beckman was silent for a second, and then said, "Okay Shanks, it's nice to meet you, I'm Ben Beckman, about your first mate question..."
"Well, a man is such a mother-in-law, so he can do it, but I can't do it, but I am not a person who gives up easily." Shanks turned his head and showed a big smile.
Smile itself is contagious, especially Shanks has a special personality charm, "Well, if you insist!"
After finishing one, Shanks turned his head and smiled at the tavern owner again, "Okay, I don’t know if you’re interested in going out again, boss. Shouldn’t a master like you open a tavern in such a place, how about me? There are still a lot of people on board!"
"I'm not interested in working for the red-haired boy." The tavern owner refused without thinking.
Shanks shrugged his shoulders indifferently, "This is hard to say, and it's not a partner, Kaido will never come back!"
Following the word Kaido, the tavernkeeper's gaze condensed sharply, and the wine glass he was wiping in his hand showed obvious cracks.
Just as Shanks was about to add fire to the fat boss's wound, the tavern door was pushed open again, and there was a sudden cold behind him, and Shanks subconsciously looked at the visitor.
Dressed in black, behind was a dark long sword, as the eagle's pupils locked Shanks the moment they entered, and the two eyes collided in the air, sparks faintly splashed in it.
"Why did he come here?" Shanks' face changed, revealing a trace of guilty conscience.
To be precise, Shanks's memory is not very good, he will only remember those who made him an impression, and there are not many people who make an impression on him in this sea.
Mihawk is precisely one of them. At a similar age, Mihawk is the only strong man he has seen with similar strengths, especially the belief in the pursuit of kendo. Shanks still remembers it until this time.
Of course, this is not a big deal. The problem is that he once robbed Mihawk’s boat and drove others into the high tide water by the way. Now that the two meet on this occasion, Shanks feels somewhat at a loss.
Although according to some unwritten rules of the pirates, the two people have their own ability to fight, and they are sunk to the bottom of the sea without any reason to come back and continue to seek revenge, but this rule is only for reference. In fact, when there is a chance for revenge, they will still There are many pirates who will pay back their pain.
Obviously Mihawk was not an open-minded master, so the scene became a little nervous.
"I found you, Red-haired Shanks!" After not a short time, but the appearance of both sides is basically the same as in Roggetown, Mihawk let out a cold voice, already holding the hilt behind the sword.
"En? You have hatred?" Beckman asked in a low voice. It is not uncommon for pirates to seek revenge among each other, but after seeing Shanks's strength, he is still a little curious about this guy who dared to seek revenge alone.
"Um, there was some misunderstanding before, but it should be fine after communication." Shanks said with a smile.
"Misunderstanding?" Mihawk snorted softly. "You can really talk, I have no time to talk nonsense with you, where is my ship?"
Shanks showed a helpless expression, "I'm happy to return your boat to you. Now you go to the shore of this island to dive, maybe you can still find some traces of the hull."
"What!" Mihawk's eyes sharpened suddenly. ..
