Chapter 55
In this world, the vast ocean divides the islands, and the countless countries scattered on the islands are subject to the same restrictions of the world government and the Draconians, as well as the same plague by pirates, both customs and laws are quite different, especially the laws, which are often arbitrarily changed according to the preferences of the kings of each country.

The king of the kingdom of Kalma hates gambling, so it is natural that in the territory of the king, whether it is involved or organized, gambling is a big crime, and the city of Navia, where the royal family is located, is a desert of the gambling industry, but people's gambling is not so easy to eradicate, and no matter how effective supervision is, it is difficult to avoid the existence of gray areas.
In Navia City, the existence of a casino is naturally a fantasy, but a native and rich person like Wood also has his own way to find a place to play, and the game he participates in at this time is a gambling game set up by the organizers to invite some old customers in a remote villa, and sometimes the organizers will invite some outsiders who have observed to enter, which is safer.
When Wood entered the beautifully decorated room, he looked at the three people sitting at the table, except for Tony, the other two were local gamblers he often met, and immediately knew that the organizers had arranged to kill the big guys.
The other two locals also made a secret eye with Wood, and Tony seemed to be unaware of his situation, setting up in the observation room with great interest.
After Wood sat down, at one end of the gaming table, a middle-aged man with a big belly smiled and said, "You've been here very hard lately, don't you need to watch the boat?" ”
In the past, there was only one navigator on board the Redbeard Pirates, and in case of emergencies, Wood often had to stay on the ship and couldn't participate in a few card games, but when Becker got on board, the situation improved, and Wood had plenty of rest time, of course he wouldn't be grateful to Becker.
"There's another navigator on board, so there's more time to play cards." Wood asked the waiter for a glass of wine and replied a little depressed.
Another local gambler with a goatee casually asked, "Isn't this good?" ”
"That bastard is a bit of a nobody," Wood said of Becker, with some disgust and a hint of jealousy in his tone, "and people who have come into contact with him tend to have a good deal with him, and they don't know what kind of magic he has cast." ”
Wood is small-minded, and he thinks highly of Becker and the other pirates on the ship, but when Becker can replace him as the navigator and mingles with the other pirates on the ship, he is very jealous of Becker's good popularity, which makes him more and more ostracized Becker lately.
A few people still wanted to talk about it, but Tony on the other end of the table suddenly knocked on the table and said impatiently, "How many of you are here to chat?" Or are you still playing cards? ”
Wood had already regarded Tony as a wronged man to be slaughtered, and he was not angry when he heard the other party's unkind words, and shrugged his shoulders at the goatee and the middle-aged fat man quite open-mindedly, and then motioned to the dealer to deal the cards.
Tony snorted coldly, he didn't seem to care if the three people on the other side knew each other, and concentrated on the gambling game, but the three locals of Wood knew each other, and the dealer who dealt the cards also intended to help, and he even played a few games with more losses and fewer wins, so angry that he scolded.
Wood didn't care about Tony, who looked angry, although his skills were only average on a pirate ship, but it was enough to deal with ordinary people, not to mention that there were two thugs standing in the house, although Tony also brought three subordinates, but they were all waiting outside the house, Tony was the only one in the house, Wood felt that Tony couldn't make trouble.
Tony then lost a few games in a row, even if it was a play, Tony felt very unhappy, his face was very ugly, and when he finally caught a good deck of cards, but lost to Wood by a fraction of a second, he made a gesture and slammed the table, glaring at the dealer and saying, "How the did you deal cards?" ”
Wood won a lot of money against Tony, and when he saw Tony angry, he teased a little proudly: "What are you angry with the dealer, aren't you ready to lose when you come to play cards?" ”
"Fuck you," Tony said without saying a word, throwing the cigar in his hand at Wood, and scolded fiercely, "You gang colluded to pit Lao Tzu's money, don't think I can't see it!" ”
Wood is not a weak person, and he still flashed his cigar when he was caught off guard, but he looked a little embarrassed, and he said angrily: "If you can't afford to play, don't play, get out of here." ”
Seeing that the situation was not good, and worried about the conflict, one of them walked up to Tony and pressed his hand on Tony's shoulder, who looked very irritable: "Sir, please don't make trouble, you are in a bad mood, you might as well go to another room to drink ...... first." ”
Before the thug finished speaking, Tony suddenly burst out, grabbed the thug's palm on his shoulder with one hand, twisted his body and flexibly turned behind the thug, broke the opponent's arm joint, and kicked the thug's knee socket before the thug could react, and after the thug was half-kneeling on the ground, he pressed the thug's head and hit the solid wood card table.
Boom!
The thug who was kind to persuade suddenly collapsed to the ground in a daze, and just after the sudden change, everyone in the room did not react except for Tony, who had already premeditated, until the thug's skull and the wooden table slammed into a muffled sound, and everyone in the room seemed to come back to their senses and move.
The other thug reacted the fastest, and hurriedly tried to pull the pistol out of his arms.
The gamblers in the house were searched before entering, and their weapons were taken away to prevent anyone from losing red-eyed, and Tony was no exception, but he had another way to deal with it since he was a child.
When Tony knocked the thug unconscious, he suddenly opened his mouth wide, and with a flip of his tongue, he spit out a sharp small blade from his mouth, and as soon as he moved his right hand, he quickly copied the blade in his hand, and when the other thug pulled out his gun, he had already thrown the blade at him.
At the beginning, the fire with Denton and Tony was also very stimulated, after seeing the ferocity of the outlaws at sea, Tony has been working hard to hone his skills and various skills in the past two years, at this time he is very close to the thug, and the blade easily hits the bull's-eye and puts it into one of the thugs' eyes.
The thug screamed, the pain and fear caused by the eye injury made him lose his mind, and with a subconscious snap of his fingers, the projectile in the flintlock pistol was shot out by him indiscriminately, with a crisp sound like a popping bean, and the lead bullet tended to shoot into the calf of the fat gambler.
Tony rushed forward and punched the screaming thug Adam's apple, and after hitting the opponent with blood gushing from his mouth, he picked up the pistol that had no ammunition in his hand and threw it at Wood, who wanted to run to the door and escape.
The flintlock pistol was not lightweight, and Tony threw it with all his strength, hitting Wood right in the back, smashing him to the ground.
There were also gunshots and collisions outside the door, Tony didn't care, he knew that the men he brought heard the movement and started to move, and the few people he brought had premeditated to seize the opportunity, and they were elite, even if the number of people was smaller, they could have the upper hand.
"You bastards think my money is so easy to cheat? Lao Tzu slaughtered you! ”
Tony pretended to roar angrily and pounced on Wood, another gambler with a goatee saw that the situation was not good, and he broke the window and jumped out, the room of several people was on the second floor of the villa, the person was just an ordinary businessman, and he didn't know how to protect him after jumping down, and screamed after landing on his legs, but with the support of his desire to survive, he still limped away from the villa.
Tony didn't care about the goatee gambler, rode on Wood, raised his fist and slammed Wood on the back of the head, Wood was not Tony's opponent, at this time he fell to the ground, Tony was condescending, and he couldn't use his strength at all.
Wood threw himself to the ground facing the floor, only to protect the back of his head with his hands, he gritted his teeth and waited for an opportunity to fight back, only to realize that his body was light, and it turned out to be Tony who got up and walked towards the thug he had hit in the Adam's apple.
Tony ran to the thug, pulled a short knife from his arms, and kicked the screaming fat gambler in the cheek, knocking him unconscious.
As a dizzy-headed, Wood struggled to get up from the floor when Tony pounced again, and unlike before, he was holding a sharp dagger in his hand.
Tony mercilessly stabbed the blade into Wood's lower abdomen, which caught him off guard, with such force that he pushed Wood against the wall.
Wood screamed, and subconsciously grabbed Tony's wrist holding the knife with both hands, and Tony showed a cruel smile when he saw this, leaned into his ear, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Mr. Wood, Beckelto, I say hello to you." ”
Wood's eyes cracked when he heard this, and he turned his head slightly, looking at Tony's side face, his throat hissing, his face distorted by pain even more hideous, and his mind flashed Becker's often easy-going smile, like a harmless face of humans and animals, some understood, some not.
He understood Tony's true purpose, but he didn't understand where Tony came from, and why Becker, a hypocritical, cunning, sinister and vicious bastard, wanted to kill him, just because he was squeezing him out of the ship?
Tony didn't have the heart to understand Wood's thoughts, he directly drew the knife, stabbed Wood in the left chest again, and turned the short knife fiercely, until Wood breathed, and then let go of the handle.
…………
On the Redbeard Pirates' ship, the smiling Becker patrolled around the ship, checking the gunpowder and the damage to the ship, and some of the pirates who stayed behind along the way greeted him, and some of the old pirates didn't get too close to him because of the conflict between him and the second mate, Felton, but they also nodded and said hello.
He chatted and joked with the pirates, told a few meat jokes, and gave a few new newcomers who had no experience on the ship and ran out of tobacco early, but he could only force the newcomers who stayed on the ship to give out some cigarettes, laughing and scolding them to roll to the deck to smoke, and then go all the way to the empty stern.
The stern of the boat was somewhat quiet, except for the faint noise of the dock and the mixed sound of the wind, Becker lit a cigarette and looked through the smoke at the endless sea outside the private harbor, the corners of his mouth tugging, and his smile became a little mysterious.
