Chapter 260: ACE

"Looks like you're going to eat me." William said.

"Of course!" Golden Lion Shiji said lightly.

"Don't be so sure that it's the best, I'm used to preparing for the worst." William said.

The golden lion bit his cigar and sneered: "That's because you are too timid and too weak." ”

William shook his head, and as the two were talking, he noticed that there was a game of cards on the side of the road, and there were many pirates in this town, and gambling was one of their main forms of entertainment.

There are regular casinos in White Pine Town itself, but many pirates don't rush to the casino when they are addicted to gambling, and this kind of random gambling game bets are arbitrary, which is also a way to pass the time.

It's just that when the pirates who played cards saw William, they had a ghost-like expression, and they all left the table with a nervous face, they didn't expect to play cards on such a remote side of the road, and they would also bump into the owner of this town.

William led the golden lion to the table together, and William casually fiddled with the cards on the table.

"They seem to be afraid of you, huh?" Golden Lion Shiki asked.

William glanced at the pirates who were sitting here, "Because I don't like them playing cards here." ”

Golden Lion Shi Ji raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "You don't like gambling?" ”

"No, I just don't like them gambling here," William explained, putting down the cards, "and gambling in the casino, I'm easy to manage, and I can't take taxes on this kind of game." ”

The corners of the Golden Lion Shiki's mouth twitched downward.

At this time, the gamblers who were originally sitting at this table, seeing that William only cared about talking to the golden lion Shiji, did not care about their meaning, glanced at each other, then tentatively took a few steps back, and saw that William did not make any action about this, so they ran away in unison, not even caring about the cards and money on the table.

William returned to the previous topic, and while sorting out the scattered cards, he said, "You were very strong back then, and you had the upper hand in the face of One Piece Roger, but you were not also defeated by an unknown storm?" ”

Golden Lion Shiki's face was angry, but William didn't give him a chance to refute, and directly held the card in front of him: "Do you want to gamble by the way?" See which of us has worse luck? ”

"I never gamble because I don't let illusory luck get in the way of my win." Golden Lion Shiji said coldly.

"People can't just rely on luck, but they can't ignore luck either," William smiled slightly, "The overlord color domineering you mentioned before, isn't it also a kind of luck to be able to have it?" ”

William slapped the cards on the table with a "pop", and then spread them out with a swipe.

"Let's draw one by one and see who draws the bigger number?" William said, pulling out one himself.

The golden lion Shiji half-squinted, his chin raised slightly, looked at William meaningfully, and only after half a sound did he sneer and draw a card from the table.

The Golden Lion Schkee casually opened the card, which was a diamond ten, and William saw this, and also opened his card, which was an ace of spades.

William's face faded.

“ACE？” Golden Lion Shiji's expression was smiling, "It seems that your luck is really bad, if it is other ways to play, your card can be regarded as a big card, but unfortunately we are just compared to the size of the number, your card is the smallest, your little clever, it seems that you are more like a clown." ”

Golden Lion Shiji picked up his own square ten, tore it into a pile of confetti, and threw it in William's face playfully: "I haven't even recognized the reality, the gap between my strength and you, just like the two of us draw cards, and you still want to dispel my thoughts through a bet, you really disappointed me, don't you understand, lamb is not qualified to board the same table as the lion?" All you can go to is the dining table! ”

"I'll give you a month, consider what I've said, and think about whether you want to stay in the East China Sea for the rest of your life and be a prey, or hunt the whole world with a real lion," said the Golden Lion Shiki, "Besides, no matter what means you use to settle and convince your men, I don't want to be a mess when I come back." ”

William knew that this month's time was actually mainly set aside for the Golden Lion Shiji's last sentence.

After Shiki finished speaking, he greeted Crick and slowly left here with him, leaving the ugly-looking William and Selkirk, Aramis and others standing in place.

"Captain Skey? What do you think? After walking a distance, Crick asked, when William and Golden Lion Shiki talked before, he was a distance away from Alamis, Selkirk and others, so he didn't really listen to the content of the conversation between the two just now.

"Originally, I had high expectations for him, but after talking for a while, I found that I overestimated him, and his mind was indeed very smart, but he was not decisive enough, and he hoped for a game? Naive! Golden Lion Shiji couldn't help but sneer again, "And at this time, he is still thinking about gambling taxes, doesn't he know, if he can't disobey me, everything he does, even if he draws more taxes, what's the use?" Stupidity! ”

"The most important thing is that he doesn't have the courage, he thinks he's forbearing? Or is it repeating the old story of the first time? But I didn't think that it was different from now, when he only had two or three people around him, but now there are thousands of people under him, I took his ship, killed his people, and forced him to surrender, but he didn't resist at all," the golden lion Shiji commented harshly, "In the blink of an eye, he will lose people's hearts, or he knows this, but he just doesn't have the courage to resist me." ”

Crick stole a glance at the Golden Lion Shiki, and then looked away: "Isn't this just right for us?" ”

"Of course." The Golden Lion Skeeha laughed, "Let's go back to the island now, and wait a month to receive everything about the island and this country!" ”

……

On the other side, after a long time, after the figures of the golden lion Shiki and Crick disappeared, Aramis shouted: "William? ”

William's negative emotions such as decay and depression on his face at this time were gone, and he expressionlessly twisted out the card crumbs that had fallen before from his collar and threw them on the ground, then raised his hand and drew a circle on the top of his head.

Located on the high lighthouse at the very edge of White Pine Town, on the towering lighthouse, Danbier, who had been holding a telescope, patted the special sniper rifle next to him, and since William and the golden lion appeared on the same street, he remained motionless and lay down in the current Jesus cloth.

"Alright."

Hearing this, Jesus took his eyes off the sniper scope, moved his somewhat sore neck, and then spat at the mouth violently, and said with some unhappiness: "I can shoot him." ”

Apparently, Jesus saw the scene where the golden lion Shiki threw confetti in William's face.

"You'll have a chance to make up for it," Danpier relieved, "but man, William will kill him himself." ”
