Where do we start?
High Seas, Higher Prices!
"This... This is..."
Nami stood in shock, her eyes wide in disbelief. She'd seen a lot during their journey in search of the One Piece! Amazing things. Unbelievable things. Horrifying things. But this was on a whole other level. She took a step back... Then clenched her fists, found her resolve and slammed her hands on the counter!
"What the hell are these prices?! Are you insane?!" She bellowed loud enough to echo through the market!
Nami had taken up the task of doing the necessary shopping for the Straw Hats-- Because, really, who else could she trust to do it? Chopper was too skittish to haggle, Zoro would get lost, she wasn't even sure Luffy could count...
No, she had to be the one to handle the money. Unfortunately, their funds were at an all-time low, and their needs were through the roof! Weapons, medical supplies, maps, not to mention the food budget!
Nami would have to do some of her best haggling, but this... This might be beyond her. The difference was too high.
"Hey, if you don't like our prices, you're free to shop elsewhere..." The shopkeep grinned, causing Nami to scowl. There was no "elsewhere." This was the first market they'd found in weeks. If they didn't restock here, who knows what they'd do.
Nami took a breath and placed her hands on the counter. Pressing her creamy cleavage out.
"Alright, look. I'm sorry for the outburst. There has to be some kind of alternative. We just need the bare minimum to--"
"Clothes." The man said, catching the orange haired navigator off guard.
"Every shop on this island takes clothing as opposed to Berries." He went on to explain. Nami's face lit up for a moment-- But the man raised his hand, signifying that it wasn't so simple.
"Women's clothes only. Full outfits. One trade per order. That's the deal..."
Nami swallowed, taking this into consideration. Their budget wouldn't even make a dent in the actual prices of this place. For each resource they needed, she'd have to trade her wardrobe...
Is it a deal?
