THE ROYAL PAW

'Nothing can truly beat the feeling of the wind against your face and the feeling of fresh air entering the lungs'.

"Ok it's time to explore the city and gather information of the inner workings of the city".

I turn to the sins and start handing out orders to each one of them to expedite the process of our short stay here in the city and after giving them their task I collects the sacks full of gems that were given to me by the elders and make way into the city's central hub.

While on my way to the market districts of the city I purchase rent out one of the local sea bulls to pull me into the city through the many canals that makes up the unique architecture of water 7 and as soon as I reach one of the more populated sidewalks, I walk off the bull and start exploring the city to find some sort of jewelry to trade the gems for currency.

And luckily as soon as I began walking around the city and got a few strange looks from the local populace since I assumed they were trying to recognize how I was a loud noise in the distance went off.

*Booomm*

A large explosion rang in the distance creating a deafening silence in the streets as the populace soon began to panic and screams and cries of the people began which caused a riot amongst themselves that furthered the panic and rampant chaos in the streets.

'Good the explosives placed by the twins must have gone off on the smuggler's ship getting of the captain and his crew while destroying the ship that should erase all evidence of our involvement with them while causing a panic that will allow us to travel more freely'.

After the explosion finished in the distance, I began fading into the crowd of panicking bystanders and slowly made my way into the inner workings of water 7 while admiring the local culture of the people and their way of life due to never experiencing this different way of life from my own short life but from my admiring of the city I found myself in front of a jewelry store and entered.

As I entered the store, I used my Observation Haki to observe the room for any form of danger which I wasn't able to find any but from my observations I noticed some strange details this store.

One was that behind each glass casing of all of the jewelry and some minor pieces of artwork placed in the medium sized store there were small buttons behind all of merchandise and second was that I could not sense what they buttons did due to not being able to sense were any the power source of these buttons lead to nor could I observe the most daunting thing in this store which was who I would assume was the owner of the store since he was man that looked to be in his early to mid-20s sporting a full purple suit along with a purple tie with and purple overcoat with a golden pendant on his coat.

And as for his more physical features he had a more pale complexion than the normal residences of water 7 while having light violet eyes and faded purple hair but the most unique thing about the man what that he had what I would assume to be dos cat like ears protruding from his head and a large white colored tail coming from his back side.

But after standing still in the store for only a few seconds the cat like man walked towards looked at me and gave a slight smile that sent me into a more cautious state due to the fact that even when using my Observation Haki that is very adapt his presence is completely nonexistent since there is not aura being emitted from this man like every other person I have met before, but he is more like a fog that shrouds himself from my perception.

"Well hello sir welcome to the Royal Paw my name is Lucas Ful and it's my pleasure to be at you service" he said with a bright smile on his face.
