her pocket and asks:
,,What is there?"
,, 15, move towards you! "said a rustling voice from the other end of the line.
,,Thanks! "The conversation was over. She addressed the next words to those lying on the floor:"And which of you sissies has requested reinforcements?"
Nobody answered. Jacqueline kicked the first best who was within her reach:
“Can't even deal with two women and then they'll get reinforcements! ", she cursed," what do we do now, boss? ", she looked at Mia," run away or get ready on the spot! "
"The second option", Mia handed her bag to Robin:
"Will you keep it short?"
Robin nodded.
"Who is coming now? ", asked Zorro.
“The nice bounty hunters! ", laughed Jacqueline," they've been following us since we've been here! "
"Or since you drank the last rum in the bar! ", Mia grumbled," and then you had to poke around! "
,, Always on the little ones! "Jacqueline laughed because she was much taller than Mia.
They heard against calls.
“Shall we help you? ", Sanji wanted to know.
,, Nope! "
There they were. Against all the normal citizens cleared the way. They didn't want to get into this fight. The first thing the bounty hunters did was taunt their opponents:“Somebody take a look at it, they were finished off by two little dolls! ", laughed the apparent leader. The others joined in the laughter.
“From two women! ", one of them giggled. He had wanted posters in his hands," and two more with a bounty over 100 mille! ", he whistled appreciatively," How did you persuade the naval captains to put you on the list? " "
Mia didn't say anything. Jacqueline folded her hands and put on a sugar-sweet smile:
“Shall we tell you that? ", she turned to the one who was closest to her," come here then? "she whistled. While whistling and shouting, he stepped forward, laughing. He didn't expect anything else but that she held a blade to his neck:
"One more time like that and I'll cut your throats with just one blow!"
Against whistles came. It got too colorful for Mia. They were all paying attention to Jacqueline, so she just ran to the first one she came across, turned, and broke his nose with her elbow.Yowling he went to the ground. With these and similar tricks she brought the others to the ground, whimpering.
Jacqueline struck the wooden hilt of the sword in front of her on the chest. Panting, he went down on his knees:
,, Could have left a few for me! ", she grumbled and drove her sword back into the wooden scabbard.
“Then finally stop making a show out of everything! ", Mia wiped two drops of blood from her palm.
,,Wow! ", Sanji whistled appreciatively. Mia took Robin from her bag:
“Thank you! ", she slung it over her shoulder.
“Why are you here? ", Luffy wanted to know when they had been walking through the streets for a long time, laughing and chatting.
“Gina has one of her shows here and we are her private taxi service! ", yawned Jacqueline," and all because Mia wanted a book that wasn't available anywhere and that would have been infinitely expensive! "
“That was a treasure! ", added Mia snippily.“Which was it? ", Robin could imagine in which direction it was going.
“That was one of Samuel Lawson's books! ", Mia explained," You know, there are only nine of them left. When Papa was still alive we had one of the other copies, but before I could read it it went up on fire! "
Only nine books? How did you know this sentence? It seemed so familiar to them.
"Because of such a stupid book she makes a fuss! ", Jacqueline grumbled," You only learn important things on the street!
“I won't say anything about that! "Mia remarked with a growl.
"Because mine was the better argument? "Jacqueline grinned.
,, No, because it is too stupid to argue with you, you can speak against a wall right away! "Mia muttered, but Jacqueline got it:
,,How do you mean? ", her eyes sparkled angrily.
That was it, so they knew this sentence: "There are only nine of them!" All the straw hat pirates came up with it at the same time:
,, Tell me Mia! ", Nami pushed Jacqueline aside, because she had just built up in front of Mia," This book?Does it happen to be an ancient city? "She expressed the sentence more as an order than as a question.
,, Yes, it's about the city of the dead, that ...! ", she paused," why do you want to know? "
“Well, we found a map by chance, but nothing is possible without the right logbook! ", she put her arm around Mia and waved the card in front of her nose," and since you seem to have this book, we suggest you a deal! ", she grinned insidiously. The others could already guess what was coming next:
“We can and yes do together and find the city together. Let's say you get 40 percent of the loot! ", she held out her hand to Mia, hoping she would react positively to the unfair offer. Mia shook off her arm:
"You can forget", she led the way, "rather the other way around!"
,, But why do we have the card, we have an advantage! ", Nami put his hands on his sides indignantly," do you actually know what we had to take up and take for it? ",, Not a piece, but for this book we had to endure Gina's antics for three months! ", Mia remarked dryly and Jacqueline called out in agreement:
,, I even had to vacate my room because the lady wanted a single room! ", she turned to the boys:
"What do you think is worse, a diva or what you've experienced!"
A tortured grin spread across the faces of Luffy, Zorro, Usopp and Chopper (except Sanji, of course):
,, The diva! ", they remarked dryly. Nami looked at them horrified:
“How can you stab me in the back? ", she hissed at the four.
,, Please, there you have it! ", Mia shrugged her shoulders," Besides, I don't do any such business anyway, that's too stupid for me! ", She looked around a bit," It's going to be a long day, there'll be some against! "she sighed.
“I guess you can never have enough! ", Jacqueline yawned," I'm bored of that! ", she drew her sword. She didn't know exactly where anyone was coming from.But you could rely on Mia's information. Since the onset of this disease, her entire sensory perception had sharpened. Sometimes Jackie had the feeling that Mia was becoming an animal, she felt the danger even before it appeared.
“Wait, don't we want to negotiate again? ", Nami tried again to do business with Mia," We and your gang go on an excursion there, and then share fifty-fifty! "
“This place is cruel. Even the writer of the logbook hardly lasted a day there! ", Mia stared at her," he wrote that the spirit of the place looks into your soul and shows things that can drive you crazy. He found many corpses there. They all died of heart failure! ", she explained.
,, But and that can't happen! ", laughed Usopp, trembling," after all, we are brave! "
"That was all who came with him and just the way there brought death to a third of the team!"
"They were just researchers", Luffy threw the objection aside, "come on, this was going to be a cool adventure.We'll have a lot of fun there! "
,,Fun? ", you heard something like a cynical laugh from Mia," you really think that you can have fun there? ", she turned around," even I'm afraid of this, although I only know stories about him! " ", she took a step forward:
"Jacki, top right, the white house, there is the first one!"
"Shall we finish her here?"
“You choose it, it's your city! ", Mia took one more step forward. An arrow struck her last location," but if you shoot something like that, it would be better to kill you on the spot! "
“I was just thinking too! ", grinned Jacki," this time you let me do it! ", she pushed herself lightly from the ground, came with one foot on the rain gutter, shifted her face forward and accelerated with one big step, the other foot.
,, You seem to be really good friends! ", Luffy grinned happily," You look a lot happier too! "
,,Yes? ", she looked at him in astonishment," may be ... you can make one forget everything! "“You still can't laugh! ", Chopper looked at her sadly.
“Not hearty, I will probably never be able to! ", she shrugged her shoulders," what the heck ... "
“Jacqueline is holding back a lot! ", stated Zorro," actually she fights with more vigor! "
“If there were only such puny opponents for you, you wouldn't give your all! ", it came from Sanji, ,, my Jacki is the best ^^" (you think so, I love everything about her!)
She wasn't even out of breath when she landed on the street:
“That should be the last for today. They definitely won't send us more! ", She said.
,,Pity! ", Mia went on.
"Tell me should I show you the city? ", she turned to the Straw Hat Pirates," I know the best bars, there you get the best drinks and the best food! ", she offered. Before either of them could think to the end, Luffy exclaimed in his chronic hunger mania:
,,Definitely!"It was late afternoon. The people who had been shopping that afternoon were now running around looking for the hottest clubs, of which there were enough on Sun Island.
“Tell me how is the Sun Island actually set up? "They were sitting in one of these clubs, the music was booming loudly. They were sitting in a secluded sitting area. Nami took out a few pieces of paper and a pen, she needed information about the island to be able to make a new map.
,,Built up? ", Jackie put down the shot glass," The Sun Island consists of a main island, this one and seven smaller ones around it. Here is the city, the criminal's nest, the citizens live outside, on the smaller islands there are heaps of small villages 18 or so! ", She answered her. Nami quickly wrote down:
"Otherwise you don't know anything anymore?"
“The country is screwed, you don't have to know more, what do I care about the geographic situation! ", she waved it off.
The door of the bar was thrown open violently, a little boy came in:“The guard is coming, the guard is coming! "he exclaimed happily. Then he
