Chapter 17 - Chapter 17 Special Loot

Arlong and Willie had already "stocked up" and returned, bringing over gunpowder, food, and drinks, but ignoring the fresh water.

Seeing Sieg who was slightly injured, Arlong curled his lip and said, "What's wrong with Macro? Didn't he protect the 'non-combat personnel'? Hahaha..."

Because of his mixed blood, this guy had always disliked Sieg.

"I was responsible for intercepting the navy that wanted to rush into the cabin below, and... Little Fei was injured because Jinbe gave him some pointers." Macro said without much temper.

Sieg's full name in this world was "Siegfried", and "fried" was also a homophone of "Fei", so Macro was quite friendly to Sieg in his address.

But for some reason, Sieg always felt that this guy gave him an even more uncomfortable feeling than Arlong, who discriminated against him, and Willie, who was barbaric!

However, on fish-men, Sieg's ability to observe micro-expressions was somewhat limited - the stranger they looked, the greater the limitation. Macro was undoubtedly one of the stranger-looking fish-men.

"Tch!" Arlong wasn't targeting Macro in the first place. Hearing that Jinbe had personally instructed Sieg, he clicked his tongue in displeasure.

"Eh? Then Little Fei might become very strong in the future! Little K, you have to work hard so you don't get surpassed!"

Hachi had always been friendly to Sieg, after all, he was the one who saved Sieg. "Little K" referred to "Kuroobi", but only Hachi called him that.

"Hmph." Kuroobi snorted disdainfully.

At this time, Tiger also jumped directly back from the warship, and brought back some special "goods".

Tiger was carrying a small box of something under his left arm, and a Navy Rear Admiral who had lost his fighting ability under his right arm. This was the commander of the two fleets this time, with shoulder-length naturally curly hair. As soon as he returned to the deck, the curly-haired Rear Admiral under his right arm was thrown on the ground.

"Speak! What's going on!" Tiger slammed the small file box in front of him, and the documents inside scattered out.

"W-what's going on? Are you trying to steal the Navy's confidential information? I won't..." The curly-haired Rear Admiral tried to be tough.

Before Arlong and the others could teach him a lesson, Tiger picked him up by the collar and said, "Why hasn't the annihilation plan for the 'Two-Headed Wolf Slave Hunting Group' been processed here!"

That's right, Tiger went to rummage through their mission files.

"We... of course it's because arresting you has a higher priority! If it weren't for you, it wouldn't have affected our extermination of this illegal slave hunting group." The curly-haired man said as a matter of course.

These words obviously couldn't make people feel guilty, but instead made the anger in Tiger's eyes burn fiercely. Sieg, who was listening from the side, already felt that the "Folk of Rage" role-playing progress had taken a big step forward.

"Then what if the slave hunting group has already sold the slaves to Marijoa?" Sieg taunted.

The curly-haired man moved his lips, but stubbornly didn't say anything - the priority of arresting escaped slaves was higher than encircling and suppressing the slave hunting group, and he still had the face to accuse others...

Bang—

After Tiger threw down the curly-haired man, he punched him in the face - the "upper part of the face". When he was only one centimeter away from the other party, Tiger stopped his fist, but the fist wind still caused his nose to be crooked and his teeth to fall out.

Looking at Tiger's teeth gnashing and gasping for breath, you could tell that this was the result of him trying his best to restrain his anger.

"Where is the permanent log pose for the mission?" Tiger asked with wide eyes, and added, "I'm only asking this once!"

Since the mission file was on the ship, it meant that he had been assigned the mission, and the log pose should also be there.

The curly-haired man, with a bruised nose and swollen face, tremblingly took out a permanent log pose from his arms. Tiger then wanted to throw him off the ship.

But at this time, Sieg immediately stopped him and said, "Tiger-Boss! He already knows that we are going to find that slave hunting group, we can't let him leave alive!"

Tiger paused when he heard the words, while Arlong said from the side: "It's better if he knows! If they dare to ambush us, it's just right, I haven't fought enough!"

Tiger obviously didn't want to make things worse, and threw the curly-haired man back onto the deck: "Take him down and lock him up! Listen, after we get rid of the 'Two-Headed Wolf', we will let you go... Before that, don't provoke my patience!"

Even with the risk of exposure, Tiger still firmly adhered to the principle of "not killing".

The reason was very simple. Tiger understood from the beginning that rescuing slaves meant a lot of radical violence...

With the Celestial Dragons legally enslaving people and many World Government member states legally enslaving people, liberating slaves meant being even more fierce than the slave hunting group!

In order not to lose himself, Tiger set a bottom line of "not killing" for himself and the Sun Pirates.

After sinking twelve warships, the Sun Pirates won a great victory, obtaining supplies and... the whereabouts of the notorious Two-Headed Wolf Slave Hunting Group!

Now Tiger was going to carry out the mission that the navy, who had just been sunk, was going to carry out.

Intelligence showed that the next target of the Two-Headed Wolf Slave Hunting Group was Machu Island, and they had also obtained the permanent log pose for Machu Island from the curly-haired Rear Admiral...

"It's not far from here, it will take about twenty days by boat. If the sea is on our side, we'll still make it in time." Jinbe said after looking at the simple map on the document.

Just take a look at the maps in the Grand Line, because extreme weather and chaotic magnetic fields mean that only permanent log poses and recording log poses can be trusted in the Grand Line, and the role of cartography is suppressed.

It can only roughly show the distance, estimate the voyage and time.

The intelligence on the document showed that the Two-Headed Wolf Slave Hunting Group's ship would meet with various branches of slave hunters on Machu Island on the evening of February 12th, and then disappear into the sea with the slaves... Afterwards, they would sell the slaves to the Sabaody Archipelago or somewhere else.

"The sea will definitely be on our side." After Tiger finished speaking, he went to the bow of the ship and sat cross-legged on the Snapper Head's head.

It could be seen that he was not in a good mood now, but after just winning a victory, Tiger still celebrated with the crew and forced himself not to show too much disappointment.

Although the fish-men could directly drink seawater to survive, so there was no need for "fresh water preservation", there was still a lot of rum on the ship, including when "stocking up", they would also empty the enemy's alcohol.

Not to preserve fresh water, just... because they liked to drink!

In terms of food, fish-men of the fish-man race had no taboos, whether it was fish or meat, while merfolk did not eat fish or meat, but they would eat shellfish, which was also what the fish-man race had always wanted to declare - the fish-man race were people, not fish, don't treat fish-men as animals!

Sieg was not very gregarious, or rather, most of the fish-men on the ship had some opinions on the mixed-blood, and he didn't get along with them very well, but Hachi still pulled him to drink together.

After all, it was a celebration, and no one deliberately gave Sieg a hard time. After Hachi stirred things up, Sieg also began to sing to celebrate.

The songs sung to the Celestial Dragons in Marijoa were obviously not suitable for use here, and Sieg didn't know any fish-man island ditties, so he sang the longest-running and most clichéd song on the sea...

"Yohohoho, yohohoho...

Deliver Bink's sake, to you beside.

Like the sea breeze, do as you please, ride the wind and waves..."

After the atmosphere gradually warmed up, the estrangement became much smaller. Only Arlong made a few sarcastic remarks - but only mocking Sieg's singing style as not manly enough.

Even Arlong would not use things related to "slave experience" to expose Sieg's scars, which was not only Sieg's scars, but the entire fish-man race's pain.

"Let me tell you, today I whoosh whoosh whoosh, whoosh whoosh whoosh..." Hachi drank until his face turned from pink to crimson, gesticulating and bragging to everyone.
