Chapter 37: Noir’s Good Deeds

Chapter 37: Noir’s Good Deeds

Don't Forget to Review!!

"Hu-la!" Noir exclaimed happily as he pushed the pile of tiles in front of him.

Ace, Skull, and Mihar immediately showed expressions of frustration upon hearing this.

Deuce, who was sitting nearby and itching to play, pushed Ace and said, "Move aside, it's my turn!

Ace angrily pounded the table and shouted, "This isn't normal! Why can't I win just once?"

Noir, grinning, teased, "Blame your bad luck."

Ace, unable to tolerate the comment, burst into flames, ready to challenge Noir to an offline duel.

The days at sea were boring. One day, out of boredom, Noir had taken the trouble to create the popular game from his former life - Shogi.

Its entertainment value was surprisingly high. Everyone except the single-minded Ace played Shogi quite smoothly.

As Noir and Ace bickered, time passed quickly and they finally reached their destination, Loguetown.

Still socially anxious, Mihar stayed behind to guard the ship while Noir and the other three disembarked.

After landing, Noir tossed a large bag to Ace and said, "We'll split up. You pick a ship you like, and I'll go to the black market to buy the Log Pose."

Ace took the bag, opened it, and saw that it was filled with berries. He said gratefully, "Thanks, Noir!"

Noir waved him off. After being a pirate hunter for so many years, he had saved up quite a bit of money.

But ever since he had met Ace, treated him to meals, and financed the purchase of his ship, the money had flowed out like water, and his wallet had gotten lighter and lighter.

Looks like he'll have to take on a few more jobs once they enter the Grand Line.

Ace, Deuce and Skull went to the shipyard on the island, while Noir went to Loguetown.

The streets were peaceful, and the townspeople all had smiles on their faces, showing that they lived well from day to day.

Noir enjoyed the atmosphere, strolling lazily down the street and soaking up the warmth of the people of Loguetown.

Speaking of which, it wasn't surprising that Loguetown was such a peaceful scene.

As the birthplace of Pirate King Roger, the Marine consciously or unconsciously kept an eye on this place.

Moreover, the Marine's leader here was known as Smoker the White Hunter, a newcomer to the village.

In Noir's understanding, placing Smoker in East Blue meant having a solid gatekeeper for the region.

As a Logia-type Devil Fruit user, Smoker's abilities were unstoppable to East Blue pirates who hadn't even heard of Haki.

Although the Smoke Devil Fruit's powers were relatively weak compared to other Logia types, dealing with ordinary pirates was a breeze.

While Noir was lost in thought, there was a commotion nearby.

Using his Observation Haki, he spotted a group of pirates chasing several other pirates, with the lead pirate holding a crying child.

Hmm?

Noir could not stand by. As a young man of the new era, how could he tolerate evil happening right in front of his eyes?

Of course, while doing a good deed, catching a few pirates for money wouldn't be bad either...

With his sights set on his prey, Noir sprinted away.

With his superhuman jumping ability and speed, Noir leapt onto the rooftops, ran ahead of the pirates, and then jumped down in front of them.

Among the Marines behind him, a sweet-looking girl with glasses was leading the team.

The fearful Tashigi glared at the pirates.

How dare they kidnap a child in broad daylight?

Do they think the Marines don't exist in Loguetown?

Tashigi gathered her courage and ran after them, but before she could catch up, someone suddenly blocked the pirates.

Thinking it was a kind-hearted citizen, Tashigi shouted, "Get out of the way, they have weapons...".

Before she could finish, under Tashigi's watchful eyes, the person blocking the pirates swung his sword lightly...

A bloody, ugly head flew at her!

Tashigi screamed and stepped back, looking at the pirate's severed head in horror...

Noir approached, holding the child the pirates had taken. With a slight hum, his sword was sheathed.

Smiling at the stunned Tashigi, Noir said, "Miss Marine, I'll take the bounty on these pirates."

"Emmm... cash or credit card?"
