Watching the old man and Miu walk to the wall at the entrance of the bar under the watchful eyes of the old man.
There are quite a few pirate bounties posted there.
But apart from this, there is another function.
That's the release delegate.
To this end, the bar deliberately built a small wooden platform in front of the wall. Once someone stands on it, it means that a commission needs to be issued.
This is, of course, a valuable job for many people who make a living from it.
Afterwards, he saw Miu's grandfather hunched over his waist and walked onto the wooden platform.
He seems to be very familiar with the rules of these bars.
And as he stepped onto the wooden platform, the originally noisy bar suddenly quieted down.
Miu clutched the old man's clothes tightly and hid behind him, looking frightened.
"cough cough, my name is Kaiji." The old man coughed.
I don't know if it was intentional or not, he slowly straightened his waist, and a few Poké Balls appeared under his shrunk clothes, which made many brawny men with bad intentions restrain their expressions.
"One cup of rye beer per person, I'll treat you."
Kaiji did not directly state his purpose, but first invited everyone in the bar very "savvy" a cup of beer.
"Coax—"
And this behavior undoubtedly pushed the Silent Bar to a climax again.
Although Kaiji is old, having a Pokémon makes others dare not underestimate him, and his generosity has naturally won the favor of many people.
There are more than 100 people in this "Black Shark Bar". With a big wave, it is the expenditure of tens of thousands of Alliance coins.
Natsu took a small sip from his glass and looked at him with interest.
The bartenders at the bar also became busy immediately because of his words.
As voice gradually fell silent, Kaiji continued: "I need to hire one or two bodyguards, at least senior-level Pokémon!"
Bodyguards?
Many people in the bar looked at each other in blank dismay.
It doesn't mean how many such employments are common, and even the employment of bodyguards may account for the largest proportion of all the commissions in the bar.
They were surprised at Kaiji's request.
It's not a small price to have at least a senior-level Pokémon.
But Kaiji's behavior of inviting everyone to drink before has reduced everyone's doubts about whether he has the financial resources.
"I'm coming!"
Soon, someone stood up and shouted.
"'Mole', don't pretend to be arrogant, but look at Lao Tzu!"
"Are you strong 'Big Man'? Old Master, consider me."
"."
Many people got up and recommended themselves.
Kaiji squinted and glanced at everyone. Instead of making a decision right away, he said, "I will wait for you in Box No. 9. If you think you are capable, you can come and give it a try! The reward is generous . !"
The last words "good pay" are emphasized.
After saying that, she dragged Miu to the empty No. 9 box.
Natsu witnessed the whole process, but didn't say anything, he was just curious, why did the couple hire bodyguards?
Have a hunch that the San Anus might be in danger?
Or do you know that the two of you may be targeted?
Shake his head.
Do not want to participate.
In this way, the burly men walked into Box No. 9 in turn, and then quickly backed out, either shaking their heads or smiling, and I didn't know what was going on.
Natsu, who continued to wait silently for a while, was unable to wait for the person who entered the seventh box.
"Perhaps, it's already known that Patters is dead, or maybe it's been confirmed, and it's more likely that it's not yet the appointed time"
Bang.
Put down the wine glass and dusted the clothes.
"There's no need to waste time like this, it's luck to wait for it, it doesn't matter if you can't wait, I planned to give the Pokémon a rest today, there are still two days before the boat sails, so I will be around tomorrow. Let's walk around in the wild, take special training by the way, and see if we can take the opportunity to earn some extra money."
Thinking of this, Natsu got up and prepared to leave.
"Hey! Sir, your bonus." At this moment, the bartender stopped him.
Then on the bar, a stack of thick banknotes was placed.
Natsu looks weird.
He also didn't expect to bet 1000 Alliance coins at will. After several rounds of betting, when it came back to him, it turned into more than 10,000 Alliance coins, nearly 20,000.
That's what he didn't expect.
'I also had such a lucky day. '
Put away the money.
Under the disappointed gaze of the bartender, he strode towards the door of the bar.
Tips?
Would everyone drink?
Just kidding!
Does he look like a fool?
At this time, the bar is entering its peak period, and people are entering one after another, and it is no longer limited to strong men.
There are also some scantily clad women.
As for what they do here.
Naturally for life.
Natsu shook his head and walked out the door of the bar, "Life is not easy"
Suddenly, a faint fragrance entered his nose.
It's a very special flavor.
"en?"
But when Natsu looked back, he couldn't find where the parfume smell came from.
"It's a good way to attract men."
After leaving the bar, I found a place where no one else was, took off Ditto's mask, and changed back to his original attire.
The next day.
Natsu wakes up from the Pokémon Center in Big City.
He came to the Pokémon Center to rest last night. By the way, he did a comprehensive examination to the Pokémons, cured some internal injuries that had not been discovered before, and completely solved the possible hidden dangers.
Go to Nurse Joy and retrieve a few Pokémons that need intensive healing, including Beedrill.
Several Pokémons are comfortable for one night.
You can see through the glass of the Poké Balls that they are in pretty good shape.
"This Beedrill breed is very good, you must be an outstanding Trainer."
Nurse Joy from Big City Pokémon Center couldn't help but marvel when the Poké Ball was delivered. road.
Because of the Region, this Nurse Joy has a darker complexion, revealing a healthy bronze.
Natsu thanked him with a smile, and asked, "Nurse Joy, I don't know if there is any place near Big City that is more suitable for Trainer to exercise and explore?"
Nurse Joy lowered his head and pondered a little.
"Well, if you are exercising and exploring, the Great Plains north of Big City is good, but there are often Thunder inside, so you need to do a good job of protection. Lapras Beach in the northeast is also a good place, good luck may be able to see it To Lapras. There is a forest to the southeast, inhabited by many Wild Pokémon, but it is not recommended for trainers who are not strong enough to enter."
Laughed again.
"But with your strength, there should be no problem."
Natsu has goals, but he still want to hear what Nurse Joy has to offer.
Working here, after all, there are bound to be plenty of injured Pokémons who need treatment, and they'll know more than Natsu doesn't.
"Really? Thank you for letting me know."
After saying thanks again, Natsu left the Pokémon Center.
Take a taxi to the coastline northeast of Big City.
This is also a Beach, just because there are many rough stones in the Beach, it is not as popular as the Little Orange Beach.
And compared to the safety of Little Orange Beach, in order to protect the living environment of Wild Lapras, the Wild Pokémon here has not been evicted, so it is relatively dangerous.
The most important point is that the wind in the northeast is particularly strong, and the sand and dust are rolled up for a long time, and the environment is relatively harsh.
Especially the sea breeze in winter is biting. Compared to the Little Orange Beach in the south, it is simply another season.
So when Natsu arrives here, there's hardly anyone to see except the occasional tumble of sand and a few Wild Pokémons active on the beach.
It also saved him a lot of trouble.
Throw the Poké Ball and let the Pokémons out.
"Good luck may catch a Lapras, that thing is here in Kanto Region, the price is ridiculously high"
