Chapter Ninety-Three: Threats
As for why Reilly didn't save Ace, Linton could only guess. In the original book, even if Sengoku revealed Ace's identity before the execution, Reilly had no intention of rushing over, just silently read everything. It's almost certain that he intended it that way from the beginning.
Regarding this, it may also be because of Roger. After Roger's pirates were disbanded, most of the backbone personnel chose to live in seclusion, possibly to protect a secret, which is very likely to have something to do with ONEPIECE on the last island, Ralph Drew. Because of this relationship, Reilly can't be caught by the Navy, and he can't go to the Navy's headquarters to throw himself into the net, and he can't come forward, so he can only choose to trust Whitebeard, which is probably what he thinks.
Of course, these are just Linton's speculations, and it has nothing to do with him whether Reilly goes or not, he definitely wants to go anyway. And what Linton meant, Reilly also understood.
"Young people are really confident now, I now have some belief that you are the captain's brother, and you are as resourceless as that guy." Reilly said.
"You'd better go first." Linton said, "I'm going to have something big to do in a moment, and it's not convenient for you to come forward now, and it's not good for you to be affected." ”
"Big deal?" Reilly was stunned for a moment, and just wanted to ask what the big deal was, when he suddenly saw three Celestial Dragons on the ground, which were the Rozwald Saint family, "Wait, what you said should be ......?"
Linton didn't say anything, but he didn't deny it.
"Hey, don't mess around." Reilly was a little panicked, "The current situation is that the Navy is already sending a major admiral...... If the situation continues to deteriorate......"
"Your time has passed." Linton directly interrupted Reilly, "It's not your turn to point fingers in the current era, I'm right, if you don't want to be implicated, then leave quickly." ”
"It's really not a cute boy." "I don't have time to mind your business, even if you claim to be the captain's brother, you're not my captain. ”
"It's good to understand." Linton said, "I don't need an old bone like you on my ship. ”
"Huh." Reilly chuckled, and then left directly with Hachi, who was injured and unconscious next to him. At this time, there were all kinds of chaotic voices outside, presumably Luffy and Luo and they were fighting the navy outside. There weren't many people left in the venue, and those who could move fled for refuge, and the rest were just those who were really stunned by Reilly's domineering spirit before.
Linton also walked directly to the side of the three Celestial Dragons, dragged them together and gathered them, and then sat next to them and waited quietly for the people outside to come in.
It didn't take long for the movement outside to gradually subside, and it should be that the battle was over. Naturally, some of the navy soldiers went to chase Luffy and the others who escaped, and the remaining part of course rushed in to protect the important people inside, the Draconian. However, as soon as they entered, they saw Linton sitting there peacefully.
In an instant, all the navies immediately raised their guns and pointed them at this stranger they didn't know, but they didn't dare to shoot, after all, next to them were the world nobles they wanted to protect, and it would be terrible if they were injured by mistake.
"Who are you? Pirates? One of the navies asked Linton, this is a navy wearing a cloak of "justice", it should belong to the rank of a commander, with a beard, since Linton has no impression, it is estimated that it is a passerby.
"Down there's Linton, known as 'Kill Marco with one punch', a pirate...... Not yet, but soon. Linton said, "By the way, when you are preparing the wanted warrant, try to make me look as good as possible, and you can shoot it now, but give me a notice and let me pose." ”
"Daring fanatic...... "Rear Admiral," the rear admiral shouted, and with a wave of his hand, more navies rushed in and surrounded Linton. However, they didn't dare to make a move, didn't there be three Celestial Dragons walking by Linton's side, and they couldn't afford this responsibility if something happened, "You have been surrounded, let go of these three world nobles." ”
"What about these three people, now they are my hostages, do you know the hostages? It's to be exchanged for money. Linton said.
"Are you crazy?" The rear admiral looked at Linton in surprise, "You mean you're kidnapping the world's nobles?" ”
"yes, I've already done it." Linton said.
"You ......" Rear Admiral couldn't believe that there was anyone who dared to talk like this, but there were also crazy people, he didn't care that Linton went crazy, but if the Draco people were really hurt, he couldn't afford to be responsible, "You said ransom?" How much do you want? ”
"I need ten Devil Fruits." Linton said directly.
"What?" The Major General was directly stunned, and subconsciously said, "Ten Devil Fruits, you are dreaming!" ”
"Okay, since I can't pay the ransom, I'll tear up the ticket." Linton said.
"Wait!" The major general felt that the person in front of him was a madman, but at this time, the other party had a hostage in his hand, and he didn't dare to mess around, what if someone really tore up the ticket? After thinking about it, he said, "I'll contact the marshal." ”
"Please feel free, but I don't have much time to wait, just 1 hour, if you don't get anything, you will bear the consequences." Linton said.
Yes, when it comes to Devil Fruits, the most possessed should still be in the hands of these world nobles, I heard that they are so rich that they let their slaves eat these fruits for their amusement. Linton is now in the Chambord Islands, which is the gathering place of the Draconians, and it should be easy to raise some fruits.
And Linton only wants ten fruits, and this kind of more or less, of course, has also been considered. If the lion opens his mouth to ask for a hundred at a time, let alone whether there is such a number, this is too much, and it will only make the other party directly enter the stage of storming and rescuing. Linton was not interested in the life or death of the three Draconians, although he hated the Draconians, but it was not to the point where he had to kill them, and the Devil Fruit was points, which was what he needed, so he also wanted this business to succeed.
Of course, with the report of the rear admiral here, Linton's words soon reached the ears of the Admiral Sengoku, and Sengoku's first reaction was to be furious, and there was actually such a maniac, who yelled directly at the phone bug: "Bastard, arrest this guy for me!" Direct action! ”
"But the Draconians ......," said the Major General.
"He didn't dare to touch the Celestial Dragons! Grab him directly! Sengoku roared.
"Oh? That's kind of interesting. "Sengoku's voice was so loud that even Linton in the distance could hear it clearly, saying that he didn't dare to touch the Draconian, which was ridiculous. Others are still afraid of the Celestial Dragons, but he is not afraid, and he is not from this world, even if he is really hunted down by the whole world, can you still chase to another plane?
"Hey!" Suddenly, Linton directly kicked a Draco man on the ground, this Draco named Rozwald Saint was not very seriously injured, he was just stunned by Usopp's ass, and after being kicked by Linton, he woke up faintly.
"Wei ...... Guardsman! Quickly protect ......" Rozwald's first reaction after waking up was to call the guards directly, but in the next second, he was directly stuck in Linton's neck.
"What are you doing?" The rear admiral here was also frightened and hurriedly shouted.
"I think there are three hostages after all, and if you don't kill one, I feel like you don't take what I say seriously." Linton said.
"What? No...... No! The rear admiral hurriedly said, this guy is really a madman, it seems that he will really do it.
However, his words did not stop Linton, but Linton did not directly kill this Rozwald Saint, but directly grabbed the left arm of the Rozwald Saint with one hand, and then stepped on the other party's body, just like that.
"Poof", blood splashed, yes Linton actually pulled out the opponent's left arm from Rozwald Saint's body, and in an instant, the entire navy opened their mouths and froze in place.
It took Rozwald Saint a long time to react that his hand was missing, and he probably couldn't believe that someone really dared to hurt him, until the huge pain came, and he subconsciously wanted to scream, but he was pinched by Linton, and he couldn't scream.
"You...... You are crazy! "The rear admiral is not good, and he can't escape his responsibility.
"I don't know how long this guy will last with this amount of bloodshed, but I won't let him go until I see the ransom." Linton continued to say calmly, "By the way, I still have two hostages, you can continue to discuss, I can wait, anyway, if one dies, I'll replace the next." ”
"You ......"
"If only you were going to make the situation clear." Linton pointed to the phone bug, and at this time, the voice of the Warring States was also heard from the phone bug, he heard some situations, felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked anxiously.
The major general didn't know what to do, so he immediately picked up the phone and told Sengoku about the current situation, and when he heard this, Sengoku's face turned black directly.
"Steady him." Sengoku was silent for a while and said, "I'll contact that side right away and ask them to prepare the ransom, you must not let such a villain leave, surround here, and the Yellow Ape General will come over immediately." ”
"Yes, Marshal." The rear admiral nodded immediately, he can't handle the matter here as a major general, and sure enough, it's better to let the big man deal with it in the future, but fortunately, the previous matter, the navy has already sent the admiral over, and it is estimated that it is almost there now.
At this time, on the other side, Admiral Yellow Ape happened to land on the Chambord Islands, and originally wanted to meet his subordinate Zhan Taomaru first, but the phone rang for emergency contact.
"And this kind of guy?" After listening to the words of the Warring States, the yellow ape was also stunned, "I'll go over and take a look now." ”
