Chapter 260: ACE
"Looks like you're going to eat me. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ info," William said.
"Of course!" said Golden Lion Shiki lightly.
"Don't be so sure that it's the best, and 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." β
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?" asked Golden Lion Shiki.
William glanced at the pirates who were sitting here, "Because I don't like them playing cards here." β
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." β
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 through the scattered cards, he said, "You were very strong back then, and you had the upper hand against One Piece Roger, but you were not also defeated by an unknown storm?"
The golden lion Shiki's face was angry, but William didn't give him a chance to refute, and directly held the cards in front of him: "Do you want to take a gamble by the way?
"I never gamble because I don't let illusory luck control my victory. Golden Lion Shiki said coldly.
"You can't just rely on luck, but you 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?" said William, having already drawn 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?" "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 cleverness, it seems that you are more like a clown." β
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 yours is like the two of us drawing cards, and you want to dispel my thoughts through a bet, you really disappoint me, don't you understand that lambs are not qualified to be on the same table as lions? You can only go to the 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." β
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 Skee, how's it going?" Crick asked after walking a distance, when William and the Golden Lion Skey were talking before, he was some distance away from Alamis, Selkirk and the 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, my mind is indeed very smart, but not decisive enough, hoping for a game of cards? naΓ―ve!" Golden Lion Shi Ji couldn't help but laugh again, "And at this time, he is still thinking about gambling and tax drawing, doesn't he know, if he can't disobey me, everything he does, even if he draws more taxes, what's the use?" stupid!"
"The most important thing is that he doesn't have the courage, he thinks he's forbearing, or is he repeating the old things that made his fortune at the beginning? But he didn't think that it was different from now, when he only had two or three people around him, and now he has thousands of people under him, and I took his ship, killed his people, and forced him to surrender, but he didn't resist at all," the golden lion Shiki commented harshly, "In the blink of an eye, he will lose his heart, or he knows this, but he just doesn't have the courage to resist me." β
Crick stole a glance at the Golden Lion Shiki, and then looked away: "Isn't that just right for us?"
"Of course. The Golden Lion Skeeze laughed, "Let's go back to the island now, and wait a month to receive everything about the island and this country!"
β¦β¦
On the other side, after a long time, after the figures of the golden lion Shiki and Crick had 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. β
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." β
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." β
