Chapter 369: Beauty Tricks

At the beginning of Hongye Village in the East China Sea, William, as the head snake of the land, had a good impression of Shanks, although he refused his solicitation, he still did his best to be a landlord, not only invited a group of them to get drunk in the tavern, but also helped them prepare sailing materials for free.

Shanks said at the beginning that he must find an opportunity to invite William to drink, and William thought that Shanks, who was the fourth emperor, might have forgotten what he said casually back then.

"But you're in luck!" Shanks finished speaking, and looked back at the other side of the tent, rubbing his trouser legs impatiently like a child, his eyes were full of anticipation, he looked back at William, "You know, it is said that this island has a special fruit, which is very unpalatable, but the wine produced has a unique flavor, I came to this island specifically to verify this legend, and it just so happens that the wine is about to be ready, you can also taste it with me!"

Shanks is essentially the same Shanks, even after becoming the Four Emperors, his heart is still full of the enthusiasm of an explorer, in order to taste a fruit wine, he can go to such an uninhabited place.

Many of the red-haired pirates stationed in this jungle with Shanks were recruited after Shanks left the East China Sea, and many of them had never been to Momiji Village, let alone met William in person.

Seeing that Shanks was so enthusiastic about William, a man from the first half of the Great Voyage, as if the two had already known each other, he couldn't help but ask the red-haired Pirates Vice Captain Ben Beckman, who was smoking silently next to him, curiously: "Who is he?"

"It seems familiar to me. After the man finished speaking, he involuntarily touched the back of his head and muttered.

Ben Beckman took the cigarette from his mouth and said a faint name: "Morgan William." ”

The pirate who asked the question suddenly realized: "No wonder it looks familiar, I remembered, I saw him in the newspaper." ”

But then, the man frowned again: "What is he doing? I haven't heard the captain say that the two are friends before, this person is in the limelight now, he can't come to the New World to make trouble, right?"

"He's only one person coming, and he's not going to mess around. Ben Beckman said calmly, as the brains of the red-haired pirates, he had seen through what kind of character William was when he was in Momiji Village.

William is not a person who loves to die, he left Ah Jin, Selkirk and others on the ship, and went to the meeting alone, just to faintly reveal his sincerity, if he came to make trouble, William would not do it.

While Shanks waited, a barrel of fruit wine was finally carried to him by the pirates of the red-haired pirates.

Shanks eagerly scooped up a bowl, sniffed it, and poured it directly into his mouth.

The other pirates of the red-haired pirates next to them also seemed to be informal characters, and the other barrels containing fruit wine were brought up, and they also learned from Shanks's style and directly scooped and drank from bowls or cups.

The fat, meaty Rakki Lu was also an old member of the red-haired pirates in the East China Sea, and had met William, he also squeezed in front of the two of them's wine barrels, stuffed a rough wooden wine glass into William's arms, and then scooped a glass of wine in the barrel himself, and continued to nibble on the meat leg in his hand with relish.

Due to the poor brewing process, the wine in the barrel was already quite cloudy, and after raki Lu scooped it, a thin layer of oil and water floated on it.

William glanced at the wine bowl that was not very clean, but still scooped a bowl from the barrel and poured it into his mouth, there was no unexpected miracle, after all, it was just a local wine made in a simple way, and the taste was actually average when William, who was pampered and accustomed to drinking good wine.

But Shanks sighed, and drank three bowls in a row, looking very happy.

It's not that Shanks can't taste the wine, but for him, the important thing is not to drink the wine in his stomach, but to find the process of making the wine.

Shanks himself drank half a barrel of wine without stopping, and did not put down the bowl until he burped loudly.

William himself is not a small drinker, but looking at Shanks's style, he still can't help but worry about his sudden death.

"The two battles you fought in the East China Sea are really wonderful, the Golden Lion Shiki and Karp are the characters I wanted to defeat but didn't always have a chance to defeat back then," Shanks returned to the wooden box and looked at William and said, "You are now famous, the most famous newcomer to the pirates, what are you doing in the New World at this time? I know you didn't come to visit me specifically." ”

"Isn't it because you have taken a fancy to my head and want to go further and become the Four Emperors?" Shanks said half-jokingly.

It's just that as soon as he spoke, the originally relaxed atmosphere in the field became solemn.

Shanks didn't speak loudly, but the deaf pirates around him still heard clearly, and they all put down their glasses and bowls and stopped talking.

At this moment, Shanks, who has always seemed hospitable, is more like the Four Emperors of the New World.

"Of course not," William turned a blind eye to the stares cast around him, scooped up another glass of wine and drank slowly, "If I want to take the heads of the Four Emperors, I won't be arrogant enough to come alone, I and my people killed the golden lion Shiki, and fought a big battle with Karp and others in the East China Sea, and my vitality was greatly damaged, and I also offended the world government and navy, so I specially came to the New World to seek a way out." ”

Shanks was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, and slapped his thigh: "You finally figured it out and came to me in the new world?"

"If I go to you, will I still be able to drink with you as a friend on an equal footing?" William shook his head.

"Who said it can't?" Shanks said, pointing around disapprovingly, "The whole camp is all my friends!"

William looked into Shanks' eyes, the latter's eyes were sincere, it seemed that his previous words did not seem to be fake, William believed that if he really joined Shanks's red-haired pirates, Shanks would not put up any fight with him, and would really treat him as an equal friend.

However, because of this, William will not join the red-haired pirates, he is a character who can't stand his subordination, even if it is only in name, rather than having a very unpleasant relationship with a man like Shanks in the future, it is better to explicitly refuse his solicitation from the beginning.

Moreover, the red-haired Shanks is a ranger and explorer without the slightest ambition, who puts righteousness and pleasure first, and has no conflict with William for the time being.

"BIGMOM has already sent someone to the East China Sea to contact my people, she wants to marry her daughter to me, and the cost of solicitation is not small, do you have a daughter?" William deliberately showed a disgusted expression and joked.

Shanks looked around the camp, not to mention his daughter, there was not even a woman in the whole forest, so he could only sigh in amazement: "Charlotte Lingling is so despicable, she actually uses beauty tricks. ”.
