Chapter 454

This was also something announced to the world; for their East Sea Dragon Palace, it was also a very good thing.

"She will protect us, but she needs us to constantly provide her with desserts."

"This is the so-called equal exchange of conditions."

Since Whitebeard passed away, there had been a lot of trouble here, but fortunately, Big Mom appeared temporarily, saving them from fire and water.

This news was announced, and everyone feared that this was Big Mom's territory, so they didn't dare to commit crimes easily; this was the benefit they wanted.

As for the conditions Big Mom wanted, they could all provide them.

Martial arts heroes under Big Mom would stop here to have a meal or something, and they got along quite harmoniously.

Chopper could understand the logic after hearing this.

"Indeed, there is a very large population here, and the geographical advantage is also very excellent; it can be said to be a very good location for business."

"She protects this place, just simply as doing business, right?"

If it were them, renting a storefront here to earn some money would be a pretty good thing, but that would have to wait until they retired.

I always feel Sanji would like this place very much.

"Yes, we have to pay her rent regularly, but for the sake of peace here, this is a very reasonable deal."

Looking at the peace before them, the lady also sighed.

So-called peace was extremely important to them.

This place belonged to the intersection of two parties, and it was also a place neither side dared to commit crimes.

Everyone lived and worked in peace and contentment.

"We were able to arrive here, we are really grateful to you, we will definitely repay you."

Facing the kindness of the person in front of them who was willing to take them in, he would never forget it.

Luffy pressed his hat down to show his apology.

Although they were just passing acquaintances, he believed that their relationship would become closer one day.

Just as they were about to enter the door, they faced an acquaintance.

That person was wearing strange clothes, holding a mermaid in each hand.

There were lipstick marks of all sizes on his face.

"Brook?"

They thought this person must be in some corner of the town, and perhaps he had been pulled away by the fish-men.

They didn't expect him to be carefree in this town, and he had immediately hit it off with these mermaids.

Since that was the case, he didn't want to look for them.

This was just having women and losing companions.

What a guy who values sex over friendship.

【He and Sanji are almost brothers in misfortune; every time they can't escape the charm of women.】

【Seeing Luffy now, he finally remembers that he will definitely go find them after he gets better.】

【Just looking at it, Luffy's speechlessness is about to come through the screen.】

【Brook: Don't blame me, this is human nature!】

【Looking at it like this, it seems like he came back after being affectionate inside.】

Brook discovered the person in front of him and shed tears as he arrived in front of Luffy.

"Do you know how long I've been looking for you here, I haven't heard any news about you."

"Now that I see you aren't injured, I'm much more relieved."

Brook hugged Luffy tightly and didn't let go, not forgetting to take a look at the beautiful mermaid waiting for him on the side.

"So fake."

Usopp made a precise retort.

They had been looking for people for so long, but the person was enjoying himself here.

At this very moment, they all wanted to give up on this team member.

But since everyone had sworn that no one was allowed to abandon each other.

Until death.

They had to continue the expedition together.

"Alright, don't say so much, let's continue."

After the group gathered, they set off again.

At the same time, Luffy also discovered the talking starfish that had been following Brook.

He was instantly attracted.

"It seems that every place has creatures that can talk~."

He also sighed at this.

The world is so big, there are indeed too many magical things waiting for them to discover.

This starfish looked really small, but its voice was not small at all.

"Sir."

Camie was also excited when she saw this Mr. Starfish in front of her.

She thought they would have to travel for a while to reach the mansion.

She didn't expect to run into him on the road now.

"I thought that after the war pollution, they would only turn into two forms; I didn't expect there to be one that turned into a starfish..."

Usopp also sighed.

It could be said that the war was hateful, turning perfectly good people into this appearance.

He also suddenly remembered the Summit War two years ago; that move almost wiped out this place.

Returning here now, seeing that most of it had no problems, he was much more relieved.

Camie continued to introduce to everyone.

"This is the famous fabric store owner we are going to visit next; two years ago, your Straw Hat Pirates saved his life."

Pappag looked at the few people in front of him, and although he was a bit emotional, he also remembered the purpose of their visit this time.

He received them enthusiastically.

"It's been two years, it's been a long time."

"Seeing that you are all so energetic, I am much more relieved."

"I will treat you well; whatever you want to eat, just tell me!"

Luffy was even more excited when he heard this; he had waited too long for this sentence.

Now it could finally be realized!

"I know a restaurant that is very delicious, I will take you there."

Pappag was very generous and waved his hand to decide to cover their consumption for the whole day.

After all, he was the richest man here; how could there be no meat when entertaining guests?

As much as Luffy wanted to eat, he would definitely be able to find it for him.

"Okay, I'll leave the team here for now, I have to go take care of Sanji."

Chopper had already arrived at the mermaid restaurant and got off the car voluntarily.

"Chopper, you take good care of Sanji here, we won't be back until evening."

Although he was a bit worried, Chopper could definitely take good care of Sanji here.

Luffy waved goodbye and set off again on the road to find food.

Chopper wasn't reassuring, so he took everything upon himself.

"Don't worry, I'll come find you after Sanji's condition gets a little better."

Just need to recuperate for a few more days, and Sanji would be as energetic as usual and travel with them.

"This is too expensive, I've already bought so much, can't you give me a discount?"

Passing by a shop, everyone heard some disputes inside.

"This familiar voice is."

Usopp listened to this voice, and a figure instantly appeared in his mind.
