Chapter 348

"Then... Lord Lord Sima Di, let's meet at Spade Island in two years."

The slightly ruffian boy's tone was solemn, his expression serious.

At this moment, he didn't even call him Heart anymore.

"Zi Zi Zi Busheng, I look forward to meeting you all." Lord Lord Sima Di's tone paused. "In two years, Spade Island."

After Lord Lord Sima Di sent Zi Zi Zi Busheng away, he returned to their residence, but when he entered the room, he found it empty.

"Where did these guys go?" Lord Lord Sima Di muttered, his gaze glancing over, and he found a note pressed by something on the table.

[The employee pool at the Galley-La Company headquarters, there's a party!]

A smiley face was also drawn below the note.

"Party... ah, is it that city-wide carnival party that cost 100 million Berries?" Lord Lord Sima Di held the note, a trace of a smile appearing on his face unconsciously.

Suddenly Lord Lord Sima Di felt this note was a bit familiar, subconsciously turned it over, and found that there was actually his own handwriting on the back.

[I'm going out for a stroll, don't worry about me.]

The words "don't worry" were crossed out with a black pen. A sentence was added below.

[Of course I'm worried, idiot!]

"It's Facing Facing Nami's handwriting..." Lord Lord Sima Di sniffed, tears swirling in his eye sockets. "You guys are the idiots."

Lord Lord Sima Di folded the note, stuffed it into the backpack containing his original manuscript, and set off for the party venue.

"I have to have a good meal this time!"

This party was just as Luffy said, it was originally just a small party near the employee pool, but it didn't know when it became city-wide.

When Lord Lord Sima Di first arrived, people had already filled the entire Galley-La Company, and after finishing a meal, looking back, half the city was already filled with laughter.

If it goes on like this, by the time Lord Lord Sima Di finishes dessert, the entire Water 7 will be a super-large party venue, right?

A national party regardless of gender, age, poverty, or wealth!

Lord Lord Sima Di watched Luffy and Chopper in the center of the party, performing funny acts, leading the party to a warm atmosphere again.

It's not just fear and panic; joy and laughter are also emotions that are easily contagious.

Why, why can't they see it?

"Excuse me! You are Lord Lord Sima Di, right?"

A middle-aged man wearing reporter attire walked over.

Lord Lord Sima Di was slightly stunned, then nodded.

"Eh, I am, may I ask what's the matter?"

"That... I am Marion, a reporter from the fashion department of the World Sea Pavilion. Seeing that you fit our next fashion theme in both image and temperament, I would like to ask you to take a set of photos for me, okay?" Marion took a business card from his bosom and handed it to Lord Lord Sima Di.

Lord Lord Sima Di looked at the business card, then at Marion.

He wasn't tall, looked ordinary, and wore black-rimmed glasses, looking very scholarly.

Although Lord Lord Sima Di still had a polite smile on his face, his heart was already like the party atmosphere outside.

See that! Ignorant humans! My beauty is still appreciated by someone! Someone came to ask me to take model photos! It's model photos! Those guys who don't know how to appreciate should all go die!

Marion saw Lord Lord Sima Di didn't speak, thinking he was hesitating about something, and hurriedly added: "Lord Lord Sima Di, don't worry, our remuneration is 3,000 Berries. We will give it to you before shooting, and all we need is the right to use the photos. Of course, the photos will only be published in our magazine and will not be abused."

"You worry too much, I've just never taken model photos before." Lord Lord Sima Di said with a smile.

To others, Lord Lord Sima Di smiled like a sunflower, the corners of his mouth almost reaching behind his ears.

"It doesn't matter, many people are taking model photos for the first time. When we were shooting Mary in the last issue, she was also taking it for the first time, but look, she still performed very well." Marion said.

Although Lord Lord Sima Di didn't know who Mary was, his words also encouraged Lord Lord Sima Di well.

Just as Lord Lord Sima Di was about to agree, Facing Facing Nami rushed over with a sprint speed of three seconds per hundred meters.

"Wait a minute!"

"Eh? Facing Facing Nami? What's wrong?" Lord Lord Sima Di said. "Ah, right, Mr. Marion!"

Lord Lord Sima Di looked at Marion. "This is my good friend! She looks much prettier than me! Can we take photos together?"

Marion nodded wildly. "Of course you can! Although her pure sunshine doesn't fit the theme of this issue, we just happened to want to do a column like this!"

"Wait!" Facing Facing Nami's expression was serious. "Lord Lord Sima Di, come here, I have something to tell you."

"Uh... Mr. Marion, can you wait a moment?" Lord Lord Sima Di said.

"Of course no problem."

Facing Facing Nami pulled Lord Lord Sima Di to a place far away from Marion.

"What's wrong, Facing Facing Nami? Ah, are you afraid he's a liar or something? It doesn't matter, he said he would pay the remuneration before shooting." Lord Lord Sima Di said.

"It's not that." Facing Facing Nami said. "Don't you think it's strange? World Sea Pavilion shooting model photos or something... although I'm not belittling you, in a place like a pool, they should be looking for people wearing swimsuits, not you, a guy who can't even swim."

Lord Lord Sima Di looked at his attire, a pale pink princess-sleeve cake dress paired with lace-up Roman-style wedge sandals... this outfit was certainly very daily, but appearing in an area concentrated with swimsuits, it felt strange no matter how you looked at it.

Sure enough, was I still blinded by model photos? How could such a good thing that you don't even have to think about fall on my head! Maybe that guy is...

"Maybe he came specifically to take author photos?" Facing Facing Nami said in a low voice.

"Author... photos?" Lord Lord Sima Di was stunned.

"Yeah, didn't yours get published in the Lighthouse magazine under the World Sea Pavilion? And yours has had a very good response recently, instantly becoming the top recommendation on Lighthouse. So this guy came directly to find you, it's very likely he wants to take author photos."

"Author photos..."

Lord Lord Sima Di had already imagined the scene of his work being sold as a single book, and the inside page of the cover after opening was his introduction, and above the introduction was his headshot.

"Yeah! So, you must dress yourself up beautifully! You must appear in front of the vast number of readers with the best appearance! And I, as your agent and image consultant, naturally have to supervise you well!" Facing Facing Nami was full of energy.

"Agent and image consultant... huh?" Lord Lord Sima Di smiled. "Then please take care of me."

The whole city was carnival, everyone was busy eating, drinking, and having fun.

And the three of Lord Lord Sima Di were busy picking clothes and taking pictures everywhere.

First were Lord Lord Sima Di's solo photos, then Facing Facing Nami's solo photos.

European style, ancient style, medieval style, pure, gorgeous, and sexy, long skirts, short skirts, trailing skirts, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple.

As long as he could think of it, Lord Lord Sima Di took photos of it. When picking clothes, Facing Facing Nami was hundreds of times more active than Lord Lord Sima Di.

The two of them took photos until they became bestie photos, and according to their actions, they could publish a book called "Teach You How to Take the Best Bestie Photos."

However, it wasn't enough for them to just take photos; Lord Lord Sima Di and Facing Facing Nami, who were already addicted to taking photos, pulled Robin in, and then they took photos until they became Straw Hat group photos, and then they took photos until they became city-wide carnival commemorative photos.

Everyone was scrambling to stuff their faces into the camera's frame.

Marion's hand holding the camera was trembling, his heart weeping without tears.

Next time, he didn't want to do this kind of thing like taking portraits of wanted criminals a second time, no matter how much money was given!

But...

Marion felt that he had recorded all the smiles in the world in one day.

Even if he was very tired, he was also very happy...

Sabaody Archipelago.

Bepo looked at his captain with some worry.

Over the past week, they had searched all seventy-nine areas of the entire Sabaody Archipelago three times, among which the first to twenty-ninth areas of the Sabaody Archipelago were lawless zones, but recently they had almost become civilized areas because of the carpet-style search of the Heart Pirates.

"Captain, no need to apologize, we can all understand your mood." Bepo said. "According to the captain's description, at that time, you only saw the ship being bombed, but didn't see Lord Lord Sima Di's death with your own eyes, so the possibility of his survival is also there."

"Bepo, no need to comfort me... actually, I should have recognized this matter long ago. It's just that I'm the one who couldn't let go, for more than ten years I've still..."

Law said while lowering his head, but saw Bepo bring a stack of wanted posters in front of him.

The first one was Monkey D. Luffy, whose bounty had already risen to 300 million Berries, higher than his own.

"This is... Straw Hat Luffy? His bounty rose? Why?"

"It's the Enies Lobby incident, they made a big scene at Enies Lobby to rescue a companion named Nico Robin. I heard that Enies Lobby has now disappeared from the map because of the Buster Call." Bepo explained.

"Going to such lengths just for one companion... are they crazy?" Law couldn't help but laugh. "I heard his pirate crew takes the elite route, only a few people but can make such a big scene... interesting."

Law flipped through the wanted posters one by one.

"Pirate Hunter Zoro, Black Leg Sanji, Cat Burglar Facing Facing Nami, Devil Child Robin, King of Snipers Usopp, Ship Spirit Merry, Pet Chopper... Hey, Bepo, you found a companion."

Law pulled out Chopper's wanted poster and gave it to Bepo.

Bepo saw the bounty of only 50 Berries on it and couldn't help but feel happy.
