The port was bustling with activity, and meanwhile Muichiro started looking for a seller.He found it quickly, it wasn't even difficult to find it. It was immediately noticeable, because he commanded everyone here.
Muichiro approached him unnoticed and began to ask a question:
— Hello...
—Huh?— the boss turned around, startled. "God, boy, you scared me out there."
Noticing Muichiro, he said.
After taking a deep breath, he asked anyway.
"What do you want?"
Muichiro asked calmly
"You're in charge here, right?"
The boss didn't look at him for long and still answered
— Yes. What do you want?
— I need a ship, from one to two sails. Preferably a small one, for 5 people.»Mui replied
The salesman looked at the boy in disbelief, grinned and replied.
—Heh, does your mom know that you're buying a ship?"
Muichiro looked at him with a displeased look and replied.
— I don't have to answer to anyone. Your task is to offer the product, not to ask stupid questions. If you are not interested in selling, then I will contact another person.
When he started to leave, the salesman stopped him.
—Hey, wait a minute, kid, don't get excited. I'm sorry, you're really right, it's not my place to ask that. Let me show them to you, I have several of them.
Before reaching the sailboats, the seller warned that the simplest sailboat costs about 250 thousand Belli.
—Do you mind if I pay in gold?" Muichiro asked.
"GOLD?""What is it?" the salesman asked him loudly enough for the others to notice.
— You don't have to shout about it, because I don't need any problems before I leave this island. Just show me the ships and don't think about it. Muichiro warned the seller.
The boss nodded and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He started showing sailboats and the choice fell on only one sailboat. Due to the good capacity and comfort for one of them, Muichiro immediately noticed him, but did not give it in mind. I just asked about the price.
The seller called the price at 450 thousand belli.
After the purchase, Muichiro asked to hire workers to fill up the supplies and prepare for departure. After paying off the seller and the employees, Muichiro was invited to tea nearby.
While the salesman and Muichiro were talking over a cup of tea, Muichiro learned a lot of new things for himself.
At the moment, there is such a force as pirates and the Marine Patrol. They did not get along, because as he realized that the pirates were monsters, no, it would be more correct to be demons. And the Marine Patrol is holding them back.
He was also advised to recruit a team of people for his journey, but this idea was immediately rejected by him.
"That won't be necessary. Muichiro told him just like that.
— But why don't you want to join or create a team, at least for a while. You know, you're still young, inexperienced. And here there is a team that can help you achieve your goal. By the way, what is your goal? - the seller asked.
"I don't have a purpose. And I don't need a team. Before I finish this tea and sail away, I can answer your question right away. I don't need a crew because of the problems it can bring me while I'm sailing home. Muichiro replied.
The salesman thought about it and was surprised by the maturity of this guy.
"So you're going home, aren't you?" Judging by your katana, I think you're going to Wano, right?
Muichiro remained silent and asked the next question.
— You named this place for a reason. But let me ask you something. Are there swordsmen in this place?
The salesman laughed and replied.
"Kid, this is the samurai capital, just so you know, didn't you know? Are you going home and you don't know your hometown? Ha ha ha ha.
I don't want to scare you, but you should know that it will be difficult for you to get there, because you will have to swim through hell. And you won't get very far on this trough.
Muichiro gave him an indifferent look.
— I will solve this issue later.
Seeing the shade of a determined look, the salesman quickly calmed down.
—All right, kid. I can wish you good luck, because you will really need it. The groceries are almost on board. I'll walk you out. It'll take you a week or more to get to the next island.
As Muichiro walked towards his ship, he felt someone's eyes on him, but he did not betray it. He was indifferent to this person and he wanted to leave this unpleasant place for him as soon as possible.
After a while, Muichiro said goodbye to the seller and left the island.
Finally, after traveling around the island for a long time, he was able to fall asleep. He was grateful to the person who had prepared this place for sleeping. It was surprisingly comfortable.
He still had a long time to go before the next island. He had nothing to worry about. He will just keep sailing by navigating the compass.
