One Piece: Accidentally Becoming the King of the World

Chapter 52



After everyone retreats.

The room that was crowded and noisy just now suddenly became quiet and empty.

When people left and the tea cooled down, the mayor couldn't help but feel a little melancholy in his heart.

He took out a pair of reading glasses from his arms and put them on himself, then slowly stood up and walked to the side, raised his head, and stared blankly at some yellowed old photos on the wall. In the photos, he and his younger self fought side by side. partners

"Guys, I'm sorry, it seems you have to wait for me for a while longer. I really can't rest assured! Every time I say it's coming soon, I may have to go down to accompany you in the next battle, but in the blink of an eye, more than thirty years have passed! It’s true that good people don’t live long, and disasters last for thousands of years! Ha ha ha ha!"

"Boom, boom, boom! Boom, boom, boom!"

Just as his mind was immersed in memories, there was a sudden knock on the door, which brought the old mayor back to reality.

"It's so late, who is it?"

The mayor frowned and asked aloud, and cautiously touched the knife hidden under the table.

"Mayor, mayor, I am Forrest Gump."

Forrest Gump hid outside for a long time. He heard some of the more heated words in the argument. Everyone had left. He hesitated for a long time and finally ran over and knocked on the door.

"Wait a minute!"

Hearing A-Gump's familiar voice, the mayor relaxed his vigilance, put the knife back, walked to the door and opened it

"If you don't go back to sleep at night, what are you doing here?"

The mayor asked curiously

"Mayor, I took Mr. Geer around for a day today. Before leaving, he gave me some food and two bottles of beer. I want to give you some to try."

Forrest Gump said as he took out the things.

"oh? You kid can actually take advantage of others, not bad, not bad"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The old mayor had a look of surprise on his face when he heard this. This kid can also accept things from others, and he also knows how to use them to honor himself. This is finally enlightening. The old mayor smiled very pleased. It is rare for Forrest Gump to be praised.

Once, he scratched his head in embarrassment and said happily:

"roast chicken! It smells great! Hey hey hey, I didn't dare to take it at first, but Mr. Geer said that if he didn't take it, he would have to change someone as a guide tomorrow, and he originally wanted to give me 80,000 beli as a tip, but I refused. I was afraid of making him angry so I didn't. Dare you reject him a second time?"

"boom!"

As soon as A-Gump finished speaking, he was hit so hard by the old mayor that his eyes nearly bulged out. He covered his head with a painful expression and asked:

"Mayor, why did you suddenly hit me on the head again?"

The mayor beat his chest, grabbed Forrest Gump's collar and shouted:

"You loser, I not only knock your head, I also want to slap you to death! Why don't you accept the money he wants to give you? He doesn't want 80,000 beli in exchange for this little food. Do you think you should fight?"

"That's 80,000 beli. Do you know how much food 80,000 beli can buy? What good is a roasted chicken?"

"However, we have already charged Mr. Geer for being a guide. How can I take his money again?"

Forrest Gump didn't dare to look into the eyes of the old mayor, but he still insisted on his own thoughts.

The mayor covered his face in pain and was very helpless. He kept hinting to himself in his heart:

Don't be angry! Don't follow this The idiot is angry! He has always been this way, and he can't change it in this life.

It's funny that I thought this kid finally got it.

In fact, he has always been very conflicted. The main reason why this stupid young man is caring is that the innocence and kindness he sees in A-Gump that he misses are the same as those in the small fishing village thirty years ago.

This is the same as in other small villages.

The qualities that the town residents have gradually lost over the past few decades, but on the other hand, the old mayor feels that innocent and kind-hearted people like Forrest Gump can be said to have been born in the wrong era because it is difficult to survive, so he has been trying to instill some I gave him bad thoughts just so that he could understand the reality of society and the dangers of people's hearts as soon as possible.

But A-Gump's heart is not as weak as his body, and the truth he believes in cannot be broken back even if it is forced.

Damn me, but you can’t even try to convince me!

"That’s all."

The old mayor accepted his fate.

"You go back to sleep quickly, I will be angry when I see you"

"Get out of here!"

Forrest Gump had no choice. It wasn't the first time he had been scolded anyway. He could only scratch his head and apologize while walking towards the door.

"etc!"

The mayor suddenly stopped him, pointed to the bag in his hand and said:

"What a lack of eyesight! Leave the roasted chicken behind! Didn't you bring it for me to try?"

"Ah, yes, I almost forgot, sorry, mayor."

Forrest Gump ran back with a silly smile and put the roast chicken and beer on the table. Just as he was about to leave, he heard the mayor behind him say:

"Why don't you sit down and eat something together?"

"No need, mayor, you eat, you eat, I've eaten."

Forrest Gump said and ran away without a trace.

"Doesn't this brat not lie?"

The old mayor cursed with a smile, with a helpless expression on his face.

He closed the door again, plugged in the horizontal pin, and returned to the house.

Although he was old, martial arts practitioners had an amazing appetite, so the mayor divided three times five by two. The roast chicken on the table has been finished.

"Burp!"

After drinking the last half bottle of beer in one breath, the mayor burped with satisfaction.

"It's too fragrant, no, I have to ask where I bought this roasted chicken tomorrow? Why is it so delicious!"

(Ger: Bought in Orleans)...

Early the next morning, A-Gump led the carriage to the door of the hotel where Geer was staying and waited.

Knowing that Hei Niu's group was going to be detrimental to Geer and his group, A-Gump struggled all night after he returned. Lord Geer was very kind to him. If you don't tell him, your conscience will be condemned. Tell him, if Hei Niu and the others find out. If he was the one who told the secret, he would be dead.

"Ah, ah, should I tell Lord Geer about this?"

Forrest Gump was pacing back and forth in front of the hotel.

"Tell, don't tell, tell, don't tell, tell......Do not tell."

Forrest Gump picked a small red flower from the flower bed in front of the hotel. He murmured quietly while pulling the petals, hoping that God would give him instructions.

"Oh, it’s so early, Forrest Gump."

Just when he pulled off the last petal, Geer suddenly patted him on the shoulder from behind and said hello.

"ah!"

Forrest Gump was concentrating on casting spells when he was startled by Geer's sudden appearance, causing his chanting to be interrupted. He forgot whether the last petal was telling or not.

"Morning, morning, Lord Geer."

Forrest Gump hurriedly threw away the flower stalk in his hand and said hello to Geer nervously.

"Did you stay up late last night and didn't sleep well? I see there isn't much nightlife in your town. Are you going on a date with a girl?"

Looking at the dark circles under Forrest Gump's face, Geer joked

"No, no, no, it's impossible, how can a girl like someone like me?"

Forrest Gump laughed at himself with a wry smile, feeling a little lonely in his heart.

Yes, how could anyone like a man like me who is poor, incompetent, and not very smart? Girls should all like a guy like Captain Geer. A handsome, rich, and well-spoken man, right?

"Well, be more confident. I think you are a good person. At least you are honest. Many girls will eventually want to find an honest man to marry."

Ger patted his shoulder and consoled him.

"Really? Thank you Mr. Geer!"

A-Gump was moved. Except for the mayor, no one in the town was willing to say a word to him.

Lord Geer is indeed a gentle and good man!

A-Gump's eyes suddenly became firm. He looked around and saw that no one was around. He pulled Geer into the carriage and said in a panic:

"Lord Geer, run away! Someone is trying to harm you!"

Gel first looked at Forrest Gump with some surprise. Seeing that he looked nervous and not joking, he asked with interest:

"oh? How to say? Who wants to harm me?"
