39 Alabasta 1 (2/2)

Hachi sighed. Smoker stood on the list Ezio wrote, but Ezio mentioned that it was nearly impossible to get that guy. Hachi took out the paper were Smoker was described and read the sentence his boss wrote.

[Hachi, if you get Smoker, I will reward you with 100 million Bely. I tell you, this guy is a good guy, but forget about recruiting him… Tashigi would be nice, but that would also be impossible. Well, you can try, but if he don't want to join, give him a transporter snail.]

„The boss knows everything…”, Hachi sighed. „Smoker, take this snail. When you face another situation like the one in Alabasta, you can call us. It's good to have a Celestial Dragon as an ally, you know…”

Smoker took the snail and looked at Hachi emotionless.

„By the way, do you know where the Spiders Cafe is?”

„Oh, I heard about it! It has a good reputation”, said Tashigi and explained Hachi where he could find it.

A while later Hachi arrived at the Spider Cafe.

In front of him were Miss Doublefinger, Miss Goldenweek, Miss Valentine, Mr. 5, Mr. 4… Besides all the members of Baroque Works that were in Impel Down, the rest worked at this place.

„Hello guys, want to join us?”

„Who are you?”, asked Miss Doublefinger.

„I'm from the Blackflame family, my boss is Blackflame Ezio”

This wasn't convincing. When a pirate was asked by a Celestial Dragon to join them, then all pirates would think that they would become slaves. This was the reason why all of them attacked Hachi.

„Sigh. Our jail has too many people, where should we put these guys? Why are these pirates always attacking me… Well, let's bring them to our ship first”
