The Eight Trigrams of Xiyan

Chapter 645 The Gossip of Xiyan

"What are you laughing at?"

Bartolomeo, still deep in thought, glanced at Haku with a puzzled look. Why did this guy suddenly burst into laughter? Is he out of his mind?

"It's none of your business," Haku said, his smile fading.

Just as Nicole Robin said, she needs the person's consent to reveal their name, so he won't cause trouble for no reason.

Haku then focused his gaze on Galette's face.

"The Blood-Eyed Ninja's Fiancée..."

Given this connection, how come the World Government didn't send anyone to arrest her?

This is truly an unexpected thing.

Seeing that Haku didn't say anything, Bartolomeo didn't pay any attention and just assumed that the guy was going crazy.

"So, what's the deal with this fiancée?" Perona asked curiously. "Zoro only mentioned it to me briefly, but he didn't go into details."

So she was very curious about Garrett's situation.

Could it be that... west Yan is actually a nobleman from some country, and Jia Lei Te is his fiancée?

Later, west Yan left the country for some reason, and Miss Garrett chased after him!

She pursued her husband out of love, and remained devoted to him until death!

Yes, that must be it!

Thinking of this, Perona's eyes began to light up.

"Are you imagining something weird?" Usopp, lying on the ground, retorted.

Although Perona didn't say much, Usopp, with his keen senses, still sensed that this girl was definitely up to no good.

"What's it to you?"

Perona rolled her eyes at Usopp and said, "The wounded should just lie there quietly."

Usopp: ......

He's injured, I'm so sorry.

"What is he doing...?"

'

Garette glanced at Usopp. Why did this guy look like he'd been beaten up so badly?

Was he beaten by a member of the Don Quixote family?

"Usopp fought with a Donquixote Family executive and successfully defeated Sugar," Perona said. "And then this is how it happened."

"So you're the one who defeated that executive with the Hobby-Hobby Fruit ability?" Galette looked at Usopp and said, "Pretty impressive, huh?"

If I remember correctly, this guy is the Sniper King from the Straw Hat Pirates, with a bounty of 30 million Berries.

With a strength of 30 million, even as a member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, this guy is indeed quite capable.

"Of course." Usopp gave Galette a thumbs up and said, "I am the great Usopp."

Garrett:

This guy really doesn't know how to be humble at all.

Perona looked at Usopp with a complicated expression. Although they were indeed saved because of Usopp, the way he won was just too...

Who would have thought that the little girl named Sugar would be so frightened by Usopp's ugly appearance that she would faint?

For a moment, Perona didn't know what to say.

"That's right, the great Usopp!"

Bartolomeo excitedly scrambled to his feet and exclaimed, "Usopp, the god with a bounty of 500 million Berries!"

"Hahaha, it's not bad."

Usopp grinned upon being praised, thinking to himself, "This guy really knows what he's doing."

"What's wrong with this guy?"

Galette looked at Bartolomeo with a puzzled expression. Ever since then, this guy had been inexplicably startled and his expression was very excited.

"Forehead..

'

Nico Robin glanced at Bartolomeo, and at the same time, the words that west Yan had said earlier came to mind.

She then said, "You can take this as a fan of our Straw Hat Pirates."

"Oh, followers, I guess."

Galette immediately understood. No wonder this guy was so excited when he saw the Straw Hat Pirates members; that was the reason.

That makes sense.

Then, Garrett's expression turned strange.

What would this guy's reaction be if he knew west Yan was still alive?

Would you get so excited that you jump up?

She was genuinely curious.

However, she wouldn't tell Xi Yan about his affairs until she got his consent, so she had to suppress her curiosity for the time being.

"Let's not talk about them anymore." Perona leaned closer again and said, "Let's hurry up and tell you about you and Xiyan. I'm really curious."

At this moment, Perona's gossip spirit was completely ignited.

Nicole Robin smiled slightly upon seeing this and moved closer, clearly intending to listen to their story.

"this..

'

Haku instinctively took a step back. What if he heard something he shouldn't have heard? Would he be silenced?

Although the other party and Ms. Ivankov are friends, she might not necessarily let him off the hook for that reason.

After all... he was a stranger to the Blood-Eyed Ninja.

However, he gradually relaxed after realizing that Nicole Robin also knew him.

With Nicole Robin around, everything should be fine.

"The deeds of Senior Xiyan, the deeds of Senior Xiyan~"

Haku:

Haku looked on with envy as he watched Bartolomeo walk toward the group to listen to their story.

It's true that idiots who know nothing are happy.

"Can I listen too?"

Rebecca pointed to herself. Although she had never met the legendary blood-eyed ninja, his name was well-known.

It's safe to say that everyone on this vast sea knows this name.

After all, the other party was the only human who dared to break into Mary Geoise!

Who doesn't know someone like that?

"Of course!" Nico Robin said with a smile. "Come on!"

According to Luffy, Rebecca is their friend, so it's not a problem for them to hear about what happened between Xiyan and Galette.

She believed the other party wouldn't say anything more.

"All right."

Seeing that Nicole Robin had said so, Rebecca stopped hesitating and strode over.

"Actually, my status as his fiancée wasn't entirely confirmed," Garrett said with a hint of helplessness. "From the very beginning, it was a decision we made on our own."

"Um?"

"Tell me more about it."

As she spoke, Perona pulled out a handful of sunflower seeds from who-knows-where and handed them to Nicole Robin and Rebecca, clearly looking like she wanted to enjoy some.

Garrett wasn't angry. Being a woman herself, she naturally knew what the other person was thinking.

"I'm a member of one of the Four Emperors' crews, you should know that, right?"

"The Four Emperors' crew?"

Perona was dumbfounded. What did she mean by the other side being a Yonko crew?

Also, should she know?

"You're actually a member of one of the Four Emperors' crews?!" Usopp sat up in shock, but then lay down again because of the pain, though his eyes remained unchanged.

"Don't you all know?"

Garette looked at the Straw Hat Pirates with a puzzled expression and said, "He hasn't mentioned me to you at all?"

"no."

Upon hearing this, Galette's eyes darkened slightly. So the other party had never told his companions about his affairs?

this.

"I think there must be a reason for that," Perona said. "Although I arrived on the ship two years later, I roughly know what happened two years ago."

"After what happened at Sabaody Archipelago, Xiyan went to Impel Down and Marine Headquarters with Luffy, so we couldn't contact them at all."

"That's probably why he didn't tell us about you."

After saying that, Perona paused for a moment, then continued, "I only heard about your situation from Zoro, the only one who knows the truth."

"Oh, I see."

Garrett laughed when she heard this, it seemed that it was not what she thought.

Nico Robin: ......

Nicole Robin glanced at Perona, then at Garrett.

Perona, it seems you unintentionally gave us an easy win...

However, she didn't say anything. There were some things that west Yan needed to handle himself, and she shouldn't interfere.

"Wait a minute, are you from one of the Four Emperors' crews?" Haku frowned at Galette and asked, "Which Four Emperors' crew?"

"BIG MOM Pirates".

"Your last name is Charlotte?"

"Yes."

"I see...

Haku had a look of sudden realization. No wonder the other person's name sounded familiar; he was a member of the Big Mom Pirates!

Then, a hint of pity appeared in his eyes. He now understood what this so-called fiancée was all about.

He had also heard some stories about BIG MOM.

One of them is that the other party likes to recruit powerful pirates as sons-in-law.

I guess that's the situation with Jialete and Xiyan.

Unfortunately, someone like west Yan would never willingly become a vassal of the Big Mom Pirates, so Big Mom's plan is likely to fail.

This is probably why west Yan hasn't gone to marry this person in two years.

Garrett: ? ? ?

"What's with that look you're giving me?"

Garrett frowned; why did this guy's gaze make her so uncomfortable?

"It's nothing."

Haku coughed lightly, shifting his gaze and saying, "You guys continue."

Some things are better left unsaid; it's impolite to say them aloud and it can easily offend people.

Seeing that Haku had already said that, Galette couldn't say anything more.

"Wait, you're actually a member of the Big Mom Pirates?" Usopp suddenly looked at Galette with some fear and said, "You don't actually want my head too, do you?"

He remembered Luffy provoking Big Mom, so he didn't know if the other party had come with a mission.

"How could I possibly lay a hand on his partner?"

Galette looked at Usopp speechlessly. What did this guy take him for?

Is she a woman who forgets her lover when she sees money?

Are you kidding me!

She would never attack Xiyan's comrades for Doflamingo's paltry sums.

Don't underestimate her goodness... cough, she really likes Xiyan!

"That's good," Usopp said with a sigh of relief.

That's true. If the Big Mom Pirates were really here to kill the Straw Hat Pirates, they wouldn't have sent someone with ties to Xiyan.

People I know have come over.

With that thought, Usopp completely relaxed.

"I didn't expect you to be a member of the Big Mom Pirates, that's really..." Perona pursed her lips, then shook her head and said, "Never mind, it's not important."

"Go on, please continue."

It's true that the two sides are rival pirate crews, but who can say that two of them can't develop feelings for each other?

Lord Moria once fought with Straw Hat Luffy, and both of them were determined to kill each other!

But the result?

She still ended up on the Straw Hat Pirates' ship with Zoro!

Therefore, nothing in this world is absolute.

Hala hala hala~

"All right."

Seeing that Perona had said that, Galette stopped dwelling on what had just happened.

"I was smitten the moment I saw him," Garrett said with a smirk. "And coincidentally, Mom also..."

We wanted him to become the son-in-law of our Charlotte family, so I spoke up decisively and volunteered for the task.

"Love at first sight, huh?"

Perona smiled and said, "I understand, I've read quite a few storybooks."

Although she had never actually dated any idiot, she could still learn about such things through those storybooks.

Therefore, she understands Garrett very well now.

"Reading storybooks..."

'

Usopp's lips twitched. Could feelings really be understood through that thing?

Although he didn't know much about this kind of thing, his intuition told him that storybooks and the like were unreliable.

Perona glanced at him but didn't say anything, only conveying a meaning to Usopp with her eyes.

You're a guy who doesn't even have a girlfriend, what do you know?

Usopp: ? ? ?

Although I don't understand it, I always feel that the person who responded is insulting me.

Thinking of this, Usopp was about to say something, but Perona had already looked away, so Usopp could only...

Shut up.

"Actually, you're not wrong," Garrett said, her face slightly flushed. "It really could be considered love at first sight."

At this point, Garrett paused, and then her expression gradually became complicated.

"Actually, for people like us, being able to choose someone we like is already pretty good," Garrett said with a complicated tone. "At least I'm much better off than the other sisters."

In many families, mothers force their children to be matched with people they don't like.

But there was no way around it; in the Charlotte family, Mom's orders were absolute, and anyone who dared to disobey would be severely punished.

Therefore, they had no choice but to comply.

"What do you mean?" Perona asked疑惑地, "Does Big Mom... your mother like to play matchmaker?"

"More or less."

"I have indeed heard rumors about this," Haku said. "BIG MOM likes to recruit strong individuals, and one of her methods is to find sons-in-law who will marry into her family."

"So she doesn't care whether her daughter wants it or not?"

"I don't know about that," Haku said, shrugging. "After all, I've never been to Totto Land."

Ultimately, he had only heard some rumors, but he didn't know whether those rumors were true or not.

However, judging from Galette's appearance, she probably thinks about the same thing.

Seeing that Haku had said that, Perona withdrew her gaze and turned her attention back to Galette.

Seeing this, Garrett sighed and said, "He's right, Mom doesn't care what we think."

"At least... that's how it is for some of us."
