Chapter 35: Princess Vivi

Chapter 35: Princess Vivi

Because we received a distress call Tashigi stepped forward and replied, The person who sent the signal claims to be the princess of Alabasta. Is she here?

Upon hearing the word princess, Igarams pupils contracted for a moment before returning to normal. He quietly scanned the surrounding marines and glanced over at the other bounty hunters before pretending to remain calm and laughing twice. Ma-ma-maa what princess? You must have made a mistake. We are all bounty hunters who regularly deal with the World Government. We would never hide a princess from any country.

The other pirate hunters chimed in agreement.

Saitama looked at Igaram for a moment before nodding and saying, Oh, our apologies. We must have made a mistake. Goodbye.

With that, he turned to leave without any further ado.

Igaram panicked at this, and quickly grabbed Saitamas sleeve, chuckling awkwardly, Ma-ma-maa Since the righteous Marines have come to our humble abode, it would be impolite to let you leave without treating you to a feast. Why dont you join us tonight for some drinks?

Huh? The other pirate hunters were puzzled.

Even though the island was already in dire need of supplies, why would they want to host the marines for dinner?

Some wanted to raise objections, but as the highest authority in the town, no one dared to voice their concerns in front of the marines.

Meanwhile, Tashigi and Saitama exchanged a glance and nodded in unison.

As expected

There was definitely something fishy going on here!

The distress signal from the World Government was most likely genuine!

Saitama gave a wry smile, Sure, thanks for the invitation.

As the bounty hunters partied on into the night, the atmosphere grew increasingly heated. However, Saitama and Tashigi, along with a group of marines, sat quietly in a corner, contentedly munching on their food without accepting any drink offers.

This is called hotpot Saitama said, picking up a large piece of shrimp and dropping it into the steaming broth. Come to think of it, seafood in this world is quite cheap. You dont even have to wait for it to go on sale at the supermarket to be able to afford it Tashigi, give it a try. Its really delicious.

Yes! Tashigi replied eagerly, eyeing the shrimp balls tumbling in the pot.

I agree, sighed Vivi. Its not that we underestimate Saitama, but his appearance and demeanor are nothing like Crocodiles, who was clearly a formidable foe.

He doesnt look like a strong person at all! Igaram exclaimed.

Regardless, we should secretly make contact with him, Vivi declared. We must inform him of the gravity of the situation and urge him to seek assistance from the Navy and World Government. Even if Crocodile is powerful, he is no match for the Navy! Time is of the essence. Our country cannot afford to wait any longer!

The moonlight bathed the ground in an eerie glow, casting long shadows across the path. Suddenly, two silhouettes emerged, blocking the moonlight from Princess Vivi and Igaram.

Hmph. It seems youve already admitted to your crimes, the man with the explosive hair and sunglasses sneered. You illegally investigated our bosss identity and brought the Navy down upon us. But it looks like were not too late.

The woman with the parasol laughed, covering her mouth coyly. We heard some very interesting news, she said.

Princess Vivis heart raced as she recognized them. Mr. 5 and Miss Valentine! The chief operatives of Baroque Works!

How did they find us? How did they know? Vivis mind raced as she tried to make sense of the situation. Has our cover been blown? she wondered, her heart racing with fear.

A chill wind blew through the air, as Mr. 5s cold smile sent shivers down her spine. Our boss sent us here for a reason, he said. Some shady royal official infiltrated Baroque Works and tried to expose our bosss secrets. We cant let you live, thats what the boss said.

Their identities were revealed. Panic and fear gripped Vivis heart.

But Igaram stepped forward without hesitation, launching several explosive projectiles from his curly hair. I wont let you lay a finger on her! he shouted.

Die, Igarappappa!
