Chapter 163 Babanuki and Queen Bell's First Meeting
Wano Country, Ringo, Port Retreat
"This is really a headache!!"
Babanuki slumped listlessly on the table.
"Why is the weather so nice in the Flower Capital, but it starts snowing heavily here in Linghou?!"
"I already didn't know where the thing I was looking for was, and now this is even more of a headache!"
Inside the tavern, the pirates dressed in Wano Country's traditional clothing were at a loss for words, unsure how to offer comfort.
"What a headache! We finally found Guigang Town, but it seems fate isn't on our side. Sigh!"
As he sighed, Babanuki turned to his men who were drinking and making merry.
"I'm telling you guys!"
"Can't you guys even try to understand how I feel?!"
"Why are you still in the mood to drink?!"
He stepped forward, picked up several wine jugs, raised them, and frantically poured the wine into his mouth.
"Oh, this wine is pretty good!"
"I knew it! Warm sake is the perfect drink on a snowy day!"
The pirates, whose drinks had been stolen, immediately climbed onto Babanuki's body, trying to stop their leader from continuing to steal more drinks.
"You idiot captain! That money was hard-earned!!"
"That's right, that's right, you should buy it with your own money, you idiot captain!"
"Who cares about that!"
Babanuki tossed aside the empty flask and muttered:
"Who knew that Pele couldn't be used here? Small place is small place, they actually use the oldest gold, silver and bronze."
"Oh dear, I can't pretend I didn't hear that."
Suddenly, a slightly languid, mature female voice came from the side.
"Are you noble samurai from a grand place like the Flower Capital?"
Babanuki and the group of pirates looked at the person who had spoken.
"Oh my god, she's a stunning beauty, boss!"
"Captain, that woman is so beautiful!"
Babanuki lowered his head, his pupils reflecting a beautiful figure.
Her purple hair was styled into a butterfly shape with a silver metal hairpin, and the wavy curls that fell naturally down her forehead slightly obscured her eyes.
The kimono she wore was also different from that of many other people in Wano Country.
Instead of the traditional crane pattern, it boldly uses a unique magatama pattern to decorate the clothing, and wears a multi-layered gradient purple belt around the waist.
Even on a frosty, snowy day, the beautiful woman who appeared at the tavern was only wearing a black cloak.
"you-"
Who is it?
"Me? You don't recognize me?"
The purple-haired woman raised her head, revealing perfectly applied eyeliner and purple eyes.
And her red lips, shining like flames.
"Oh my, are you really from Wano Country?"
"I am A-Chou from the Bell Queen."
Before Babanuki could say anything, the other Wano Country guests in the tavern stood up as if they had seen a ghost.
"Hey, hey, it's Lady Adie!"
"Get out of the way, you bastard! Why is the Queen of Bells here in our commoners' tavern?!"
The commoners in the tavern fled, leaving only Babanuki and his pirate crew.
And the shop owner, huddled under the bar, trembling with fear.
"Oh no, oh no, I didn't even go out to greet Lady Adie—"
"They're definitely going to be killed!"
Hearing this, Babanuki narrowed his eyes: "Because you'll be killed if you don't go out to greet them? You're as terrifying as a scorpion."
"I would never do such a thing; it's all just rumors."
Take out a pipe inlaid with gold wire and put in some dried tobacco.
As the distinctive scent of matches emanated from the woman's slender fingers, Ah Die exhaled a puff of smoke with considerable pleasure.
"I heard something big happened in the Flower Capital, so I came to the tavern to hear the news."
"After all, you outsiders from the Flower Capital have already become famous in Guigang Town."
"Then, could you please tell me what happened in the Flower Capital?"
"And what about that acting general?"
Why should I tell you that kind of thing?
Babanuki showed no mercy to women, nor did he have any desire for women in his eyes.
"Get out of my way, don't disturb me while I'm completing my mission."
"Wait a minute, Captain Babanuki!"
A pirate who looked like a monkey suddenly jumped onto the bar and whispered something in Babanuki's ear.
"Oh, I didn't know you could do it that way!"
Babanuki changed his previous attitude and kept glancing at Adie.
Adie, who remained calmly resting, was not surprised. With her looks and figure, it was normal for her to attract men's lust.
"Hey, you!"
A mocking smile appeared on Adie's lips. Just when she thought that the tall man in front of her was just like any other man, she realized that he was not the only one who was being treated this way.
"You have a lot of power, don't you?"
Ah Die was taken aback at first, but her sneer remained: "So you're after my family's wealth?"
"Who wants that junk! Your entire fortune isn't even worth a compliment from Boss Bazel to me!"
Babanuki grabbed Ah Die by the collar and lifted her up, his smile sinister.
"I'm looking for a very strange fruit. You have a lot of power, so send your men to find it."
"I'm only giving you fifteen days. If you can't find me after fifteen days, I'll find your faction and kill half of your men."
"I'll give you fifteen more days. If you still can't find it, I'll destroy this whole town!"
After leaving a warning, Babanuki abandoned the woman and prepared to leave.
Ah Die stared blankly at the man's retreating figure.
Is this man an idiot?
"Hey, big guy!"
"Even if you're looking for that weird fruit, you have to tell me what it looks like, right?"
call--!
The door was half-opened, letting in the heavy snow.
The indoor temperature dropped sharply.
What does it look like?
Babanuki turned his head, his eyes filled with undisguised contempt.
"Can't you understand what I'm saying, woman? Didn't I tell you it's a strange fruit?"
"If I knew what you looked like, what would I need you for?"
After saying that, he walked straight into the snow.
The Beast Pirates followed behind, filing out one after another.
boom--
The door was slammed shut.
After a long moment of stunned silence, Ah Die suddenly burst out laughing.
"What a strange man! Does he really see no beauty in a woman like me?"
"Then let's see what you're going to do."
"Lingyin."
A figure draped in a black robe emerged from the corner and knelt on one knee beside Ah Die's table.
"Lord Adie!"
"Find that strange fruit and bring it back. Also, have someone investigate the background of that group of people."
Adie's smile faded, and a sharp glint flashed in her eyes.
"I want to see what that big guy's confidence is all about. If he can't satisfy me—"
"There will be another nameless grave in Linghou."
"Yes, Lady Adie!"
The scene returns to the rabbit bowl.
Davego returned with his men to report, but he brought with him a man that Bazel had never expected.
"You never expected to see the famous Udon Tenfu Ramen here."
Bare-chested, Bazel is waiting for his wounds to heal naturally.
When Davego reached the foot of the mountain, he could already sense the domineering aura of the two men.
After a brief exchange, the sparring session, which had only lasted a morning, came to an abrupt end.
No one won, but we must talk about wolves and foxes.
Bazel glanced at Kaido, whose wounds had completely closed, and shook his head helplessly.
He is far inferior to Kaido in terms of stamina and resilience.
Despite having similar injuries, although his body recovered quickly, it was still somewhat slower than Kaido's recovery speed.
Especially physical strength.
Although it was only a short morning of competition, Bazell could clearly feel that he was already a little out of breath.
On the other hand, Kaido.
It still had that same excited look of a bison in spring.
Even after being hit by himself for so long, the smile on his face grew even wider.
"Nice to meet you. I am Udon's daimyo, Amatsuki Tempura."
After introducing himself, Amatsuki Tempura, who sports a small mustache, suddenly became serious.
"You all look unfamiliar; you must be from overseas, right?"
"I wonder what brings you all to this tiny Wano Country?"
Looking at the enemy's hand gripping the scabbard at his waist, Davego laughed heartily.
"Hey, Your Excellency, stop joking around."
"Who do you think those two men standing in front of you are?!"
"Davego".
Bazel raised his hand to stop his companion from showing off his identity.
"My fame and Kaido's fame are not important, and there is no need to make it public."
"Lord Daimyo, since you have chosen to come here to see us, it means that you have already obtained preliminary information."
"You've come to us because you want to ask about the Flower Capital, right?"
After a brief pause, Bazel took a sip of the tea that Lipriy had prepared.
"Shortly after entering this mountainous area, Kaido and I sensed someone lurking nearby using our Observation Haki."
"But they left quickly, so we stopped bothering with them."
In other words—
Bazel's lips suddenly curled up.
"It wasn't you who discovered us; we deliberately sent your warrior back to report."
"The Great Name of Rabbit Bowl—"
Rain Moon Tempura's expression changed slightly, and the blade, gleaming with a cold light, was half-drawn from its sheath.
"Ugetsu Tempura!"
