Chapter 178

After a while, the five pirates arrived at the port. Zoro was still jamming his half-drunk bottle of rum, Sanji was sleeping not far from the brooding North, and Charlie sat down and started playing a relaxing tune.

More gloomily rubbed his beard and made a difficult decision. He did not want to sail in the Void, but it was not so easy to choose a boat from the whole mass in front of his eyes. The same thoughts visited North, although he looked more at the sails, he did not particularly like the white ones.

The guys did not even think about the fact that these ships belonged to pirates, with whom they drank not so long ago, like real comrades.

So, within ten minutes, they finally chose a good boat for themselves. Having previously broken a couple of masts and checked the strength of the hull from the rest. The most intact and became their new, temporary vessel.

Mor stood at the wheel, took out a couple of Log Poses of the New World, and again became thoughtful. Zoro raised the red sails, threw the alien pirate flag out to sea, and continued to drink. Sanji was dumped somewhere, and Charlie, as usual, sat on the bulwark and sang his music. In general, an idyll, only North wandered back and forth and kicked discontentedly on board, muttering:

- Still, ours is much better than this old trough ...

The ship that the heroes chose looked pretty good, it was only a few years old at the most, so it was too rude to call it an old trough. The ship belonged to a small pirate crew - the Blood Ax. The name is so-so, but their brig was not bad. Mor noticed him, and North was not given a word at all. Although, he was clearly better than most of the trash. Thus, they decided on the ship.

At this moment, Mor called out to North, already in a slightly sober voice:

- Red, blow here!

A second later, North went to the captain and looked at his occupation. Mostly, Mor went through a bunch of Log Poses, as well as Eternal Poses, of which only a couple of hundred could be identified by eye. There was a whole mountain ... Mor managed to collect them for a long time of sailing. Now he sat looking for something ...

Before North even had time to ask, the captain got up, slapped him on the shoulder and said:

- Look, and I went, I should ... Ahem, move away!

- Uh, cap, but what to look for? The pirate asked in confusion, swaying a little and leaning on the steering wheel in time.

Mor waved his hand and grumbled on his leg:

- Look for that island ... Where are these Belousovs staying ...

- Uh-uh ... And what kind of island is this?

Mor turned around and looked at him like a fool:

- Sini-I ... Ahem, Siniar, look for him, do you understand?

After a rather slow nod, More waved his hand and went back to his business. Things were simple, he just wanted to dump all the work on North, and go himself to look for drinks from these pirates, whose ship they requisitioned.

So, for almost two whole days, driven by the wind, then by the forces of Mora, the pirates finally reached the right place, having lost the front mast ... Now the ship did not look so hot.

It was much more difficult to follow the arrow of the Eternal Pose, especially when he was in the hands of a drunken North, endlessly pouring wine into himself. He stood at the helm no more than sleeping or fighting with Zoro. They already noticeably smashed part of the ship with their antics, which Sanji often joined. Since he came to his senses, he became more resilient and no longer hibernated. As for Charlie and More, they sang songs all the way and continued to get drunk.

The Pirate Captain has been in exceptionally good spirits lately, spiced with some longing. One Piece was out there somewhere, there was still so much to do, and then there was a wedding at the Empress. Times have changed. From a simple small pirate who received a bunch of benefits at the beginning of the journey, he arrived here - in the New World and became Yonko. Now he simply could not retreat. One day a great battle will happen, and it will definitely not happen with Kaido.

Sighing, Mor raised the bottle to the boundless sea, muttered a couple of incoherent words and immediately threw it back, drinking in one gulp.

At that moment, a noise was heard from the captain's bridge. Charlie ran his finger along the string and finished the melody, then turned around. Mor also looked at what was happening.

A trio of pirates stood at the helm and argued loudly about something. They were, of course, Sanji, Zoro and North. The red-haired pirate twisted the Eternal Pose from side to side and grumbled in displeasure:

- Here's how to use this crap? She suddenly stopped showing her where to go!

“You moron,” Zoro snatched the Eternal Pos out of North’s hands and examined him himself. “Have you ever tried to turn the steering wheel, red-headed fool?

North snorted.

- Unlike some people, I can at least find my way to the toilet. So don't teach me how to live here!

Zoro growled and at that moment Sanji just grabbed the Log Pose and examined him, chuckling, said:

“You two boobies, especially you Zoro! - Throwing a mocking glance at his comrade, Sanji pointed to the left side. - There you have to swim. You idiots do not know how to navigate at all? What would Nami-san think of you ...

Zoro said angrily:

- Shut up the smelly cook, if you hadn't slept for almost a day, these problems would not have happened! Take an apron and cook your soup!

Sanji was about to start a nice fight when Charlie's drunken voice came from behind him.

- Hey, what are you doing here raving?

“Ask our genius swordsman,” Sanji replied with a mocking grin, glancing at Zoro.

Charlie swung, tossed the bottle of Sanji, and said,

- In my opinion, guys, you are too sober, before you swam normally, why are you here again different? And in general, our ... - Charlie stopped mid-sentence when he looked in the direction where, in his opinion, there should be someone. Not finding the captain there, he staggered back and rubbed his eyes:

- What the hell is this? Captain?!

Suddenly a cheerful voice was heard next to him:

- Why broke out? I'm actually here, - all this time Mor stood on the left and sipped wine, laughing. He already a couple of hours ago was able to determine where the archipelago is, the guys have not been able to determine how to get there for an hour, everyone is wandering in circles. A sober North is too bad a navigator. Although, drunk North opposite, just a master of the craft.

With a wave of his hand to the side, Mor said:

- There you have to swim, hurry up already. We're running out of booze!

- Damn, well, I told you! Snorted Zoro and walked into the hold in displeasure. Sanji took a sip from Charlie's bottle and then tossed it to North.

- You need it more! - and then went to the kitchen, if, of course, on this ship this mess could be called a kitchen.

North shrugged, took a sip from the bottle and stood at the wheel, spun the Log Pose smartly, then frowned again. After a couple of seconds of silence, when Mor and Charlie were already leaving, he shouted:

- Captain, where to sail then?

- To the left!
