HxH in One Piece World - Chapter 48
Chapter 48-Pele
My name is Ferret Bao, and I am a skunk who was born beautiful and unique.
I don’t know why I am incense.
I don’t know why I am white.
I don’t even know why I am so smart.
I only know that cuteness is a capital and a weapon.
And I have such capital and weapons.
Therefore, human beings are willing to let me live.
Because the living me is more valuable than the dead me.
I know this very well.
Therefore, even if I lose my freedom, I don’t panic at all.
Until… I met the man who made me hard to say a word.
…………
In the empty weapon shop, Maude and Sonny watched the Ferret lying limp on the counter one after another.
Sonny said regretfully: “So this can’t be eaten?”
“It’s not whether you can eat or not, but it’s wasteful to eat.”
Maude took a look at the Ferret’s legs and said thoughtfully, “It’s a male.”
Sonny looked at Maude in confusion, and asked, “Is it important to be a male or a female?”
“It’s nothing. I just considered the possibility of using him for breeding. Just thinking about it makes me feel troublesome. As expected, I should sell it directly.”
Maude explained something, and suddenly thought of something.
“Sonny, are the auction brochures still there?”
“exist.”
“Show it to me.”
After hearing this, Sonny opened the cabinet and flipped through it, and she quickly found the booklet.
Maude took the booklet and turned it over.
Last time, because Sonny had no interest in exotic animals, she turned it quickly.
At that time, Maude peeped behind him, and hurriedly glanced over, only to see a brief two-line explanation.
“found it.”
Maude quickly turned to the page where Ferret’s introduction was registered.
There are no pictures, but one page is full of introductions about Ferrets.
Maude immediately looked at the introduction and scanned it line by line. Only then did he know that the Ferret is a hybrid animal, so its body structure and coat color are different from those of ordinary skunks.
From the side, Sonny also leaned over to watch the introduction.
After a while, the two finished reading Ferret’s introduction.
It is probably a skunk with a different coat color and sweat glands, especially sweat glands, which can emit a good smell.
Because of this, Ferrets have the value of being auctioned.
But creatures like this that can emit strange fragrances are often rushed by perfume companies.
However, the Ferret was thrown into a group of pirates, which means that pirates like Abe who want to raise a pet on a whim would spend money to buy it.
“It’s really not an ordinary skunk.”
Maude looked at the Ferret on the counter, as if looking at a brand new sharp knife.
“It’s really a pity to eat.”
Sonny was also looking at the Ferret on the counter, as if looking at a bag of bulging money bags.
Feeling the gazes of the two, the Ferrets who had given up struggling were like a puddle of dead mud, motionless.
“Sonny, first treat this little thing so that it won’t be disabled. Besides, are there any chains or the like in the store?”
“Yes, I will get it now.”
Sonny realized that the Ferret was just a mobile money bag at this time, and she immediately fell in love.
She went to the basement and took out medical tools and a bunch of chains with thick knuckles.
Back in the shop, he first handled the injury for the Ferret, and then tied the upper body of the Ferret into a zongzi with a chain for fear that the Ferret would run away.
After doing this, more than half an hour has passed.
Sonny looked at the results and nodded very satisfied, but also thought of a more important question.
“Where do you want to put ‘Pele’?”
Within a short period of time, Sonny had chosen a suitable name for Ferret.
Maude glanced at the empty weapon shop and said, “Why don’t you just put it in the shop?”
“no.”
Sonny shook her head and rejected the proposal.
Maude thought for a moment, then suddenly thought of a suitable shelter.
“Just hang it in the toilet, how about it?”
“Toilet…”
Sonny thought about it seriously.
Considering Pele’s scent from the sweat glands, he immediately felt that this proposal was very good.
When going to the toilet, Pele needs to be taken out and taken in, which will be a little troublesome.
But compared to air purification, this trouble is nothing.
“Well, put it in the toilet.”
Afterwards, she directly settled the matter.
On the counter, the Ferret, who has been forcibly named “Pele”, can no longer see the white future.
[Why do you harm me like this?]
[If there is hell, it must be here.]
Three minutes later, Pele was hung up in the toilet as a freshener to ease the air quality.
Maude then went to the room, put the load on his lap, and then returned to the store, while exercising, accompanied Sonny to see the store.
It was also at this time that Sonny asked about Pele’s origins in hindsight.
A rare and exotic animal that was auctioned out fell into Maude’s hands and was injured.
She is still quite curious.
“This is a long story.”
Maude didn’t deliberately conceal it, and told Sonny about everything that happened in the afternoon.
It made Sonny look at him, and it became a little strange.
“Pele is a surprise. When I picked him up, I didn’t expect him to be valuable. If I knew it, he wouldn’t be thrown out at that time. Fortunately, he returned to my hands.”
Speaking of this, Maude was very emotional.
Really almost missed a windfall.
As for the subsequent threats of Abe and Kazte, as long as they return to the store, they have Thor’s thigh.
Sonny nodded and said seriously: “Fortunately.”
Time passed slowly.
In the evening, the Saul Weapon Store ended its day-long operation without income.
Sonny went to the kitchen to prepare food for tonight.
Maude closed the store door and cleaned the store.
After cleaning, Maude went to the kitchen to help Sonny.
Although his cooking skills are not as good as Sonny, the things he makes are quite delicious.
“Don’t forget to prepare one for Pele.”
Maude reminded him of Pele who was hanging in the toilet.
“Well, I almost forgot.”
When Maude was reminded, Sonny took out two more steaks and a handful of vegetables from the refrigerator.
Maude glanced at the food that Sonny had prepared for Pele.
It can only be said that in terms of food, Saul Weapon Store has never been ambiguous.
The two were busy in the kitchen.
On the other side, Saul, who had just woken up, walked downstairs.
With tired eyes, he went straight to the toilet.
After dozens of seconds, a scream came from the toilet.
“Help!!!”
The voice sounded as immature as a teenager, and it was full of panic.
Hearing a strange cry for help coming from the toilet, Maude and Sonny, who were busy in the kitchen, stopped at the same time and looked at each other before putting down their things and going to the toilet.
The two rushed to the toilet for the first time, and saw that Thor was squeezing Pele’s head with one hand, as if he would use his force in vain in the next second.
Pele’s horrified eyes looked at Sonny, and he uttered words very hard.
“Mom, mom, save me!!”
“?”
