Chereads / One Piece: Master of Genes / Chapter 24 - Looking for an Excuse

Chapter 24 - Looking for an Excuse

Because of the Heavenly Tribute, Mio had to speed up and move towards the destination.

Fortunately, he will still pass Varu Island halfway, so he can go up and see it.

After one day.

Evening.

Mio's ships approached the port of Varu Island.

At a glance, he can see a pirate ship in front of him. Every pirate ship has many pirates behind. After all, if there is no one to guard the ship in such a place, the ship will already be gone by the time they come back.

"Warwick, just stay on the boat, and kill someone as soon as they come up." Mio ordered Warwick.

After getting Warwick's response, he took Erica and left, set foot on Varu Island, and walked towards the town not far in front.

Along the way, many pirates can be seen.

Some are fierce, some are gentle.

During this period, many pirates were also looking at other people, with strange colors in their eyes, and they were obviously paying attention to something bad.

Some people turned their eyes on Mio and Erica, but then moved away again.

They feel that Mio and Erica are not easy to provoke.

The two of them just walked into the town and saw two groups of pirates fighting on the road ahead.

From time to time, blood spattered and spilled on the ground.

There were many other pirates onlookers around, and even pirates sometimes shouted loudly, "Go on, don't be afraid, I have bet half a million on your win, don't be afraid!!"

Obviously, these pirates have long been accustomed to seeing battles, and are even able to use other people's battles to open the market.

"It's really lively." Mio sighed and moved on, staring around looking for the tavern, and leaving before buying some wine.

Erica also looked around curiously, the tentacles under the cloak swayed lightly, her brows wrinkled lightly, her voice soft, "Erica doesn't like it very much."

"Huh? Why?" Mio heard the words and looked at Erica curiously.

"A lot of people are having bad ideas about master." Erica said seriously, with a pair of eyes looking in one direction after another, watching one after another the people who put their eyes on Mio.

"So that's it." Hearing this, after a daze, he couldn't help but shake his head and laughed, then rubbed Erica's head and said lightly, "Don't worry, if those people really dare to make a move, they will only suffer."

"Yeah." Erica nodded her head.

The two quickly found a tavern and walked in.

Dozens of pirates gathered in the tavern, which was extremely lively.

After Mio and Erica walked in, they immediately attracted the attention of many people.

One of the burly pirates stood up, frowned slightly, and shouted directly, "Hey, this is our territory, get out of here quickly."

"I'll buy some wine and go." Mio said lightly.

The burly man was taken aback for a moment, and then he became angry. He didn't seem to expect Mio to be so unaware. He was ready to pull out the weapon behind his back, and wanted to teach Mio a lesson.

But in the corner of the pub, a slender man held two hot girls in his arms, watched his legs on the table, and slowly spoke, "Hey, let them buy, and leave as soon as you finish."

He is the boss of these guys. He came to this island just to relax, not to cause trouble.

Of course, the main reason was because he felt that the two guys who came in were a bit dangerous.

Hearing what his boss said, the burly man suddenly let out a cold snort of disdain on his face.

"Since the boss has spoken, then I'll let you go, and get out of the way when you finish buying it."

After speaking, the burly man sat down, picked up the wine in front of him, and drank again.

Mio shrugged, brought Erica to the bar, and said directly, "Bring me two barrels of wine."

Behind the counter is an old man who is getting older.

He nodded after hearing what Mio said, and immediately asked the young man next to him to take it, and he reminded Mio in a low voice, "Young man, these people belong to the monitor lizard pirate group.

After buying the wine, leave as soon as possible, otherwise there will be accidents."

It seems that this old man is a good old man with a good heart.

However, Mio was suddenly stunned.

"Monatara Pirate Group?" Mio asked after hesitating for a while.

The old man was also stunned, but he nodded, "Yes, it is the latest monitor lizard pirate group that has a bounty more than 30 million. I heard that they are planning to go to the Grand Line recently."

"Well, thanks a lot." Hearing this, Mio nodded and didn't speak any more, but his eyes suddenly flickered.

The Monatara pirate group, he has seen it on the reward order before, the captain is a guy with Devil fruit power, the ancient monitor lizard, and it is not an ordinary Zoan fruit ability, but is an ancient species in Zoan.

In North Blue, by virtue of this fruit ability, Anderson is regarded as a small celebrity in North Blue, and has been followed by many people.

However, Mio didn't want to leave this tavern like this.

As for why...

He wanted to kill Anderson.

Because he wants to see, if he kills a person with Devil fruit power, his genes will be different. Is it the same gene as ordinary people? Or...

He originally planned to go to the Grand Line to consider this matter again. After all, the people with Devil fruit power ate more common in the Grand Line. Although North Blue also has them, but they are very rare, he did not expect to encounter them like this.

At this point, he is somewhat similar to the protagonist Luffy in the original book. After all, if there is no reason, he always feels a little guilty to shoot for no reason.

But the difference between him and Luffy is that he knows how to proactively find reasons.

Thinking of this, Mio turned and walked towards Anderson step by step.

This slender figure, who does not seem to have any strong fruit ability under his hand, hugged two chicks at this time and molested them. From time to time, he asked the two hot girls to feed him and drink with their mouths, with smiles all over his face.

Sitting next to Anderson, there are several other men.

At this moment, one of them saw Mio walking by, and immediately got up and said unhappy, "Boy, what are you doing here?"

Hearing the sound, Anderson also frowned and looked over, looking upset.

'This kid did not leave after buying the wine. What did he want to do? He still wants to stay and drink together?'

However, the next scene made Anderson stand up abruptly with an angry expression on his face.

Looking at the strong man in front of him, Mio directly pulled out the weapon on his waist and slashed.

A cold glow appeared.

A deep wound suddenly appeared on the strong man's chest, blood spattered, and his sturdy body suddenly fell to the ground and died.

With his eyes wide open, he seemed to be in disbelief.

"What are you doing so loudly?"

"I was thinking about what to do if I couldn't find a reason. You'd better just give me the reason. I hate others yelling at me the most in my life." Mio said with an 'angry' expression. As for the truth...

Only God knows.
