Chapter Seventy-Five: Blocking the Way
Maude's words added a touch of heaviness to the atmosphere in the room.
Sunny looked at Maude, and then at Saul, who was expressionless.
She wanted to say something, but she felt that it was out of place, so she kept silent.
Thor put down the little yellow book, picked up his gold-plated pipe, and took a puff.
In vain, the weapons shop was silent, and the only sound was the sound of Thor swallowing clouds.
Maud watched as Thor reacted.
In this regard, he has long been mentally prepared.
Because when he first came to the weapons shop, Thor asked him to say goodbye to the past with a chic act.
At that time, this undoubtedly showed an attitude.
However, Maud is not worried that Thor will refuse.
"I want revenge."
Maud mobilized the memories left behind by her predecessor, making the hatred and murderous intent on her face more concrete.
Seeing Maude's expression for the first time, Sunny's face changed slightly, her lips moved, but she was still silent.
Thor, on the other hand, only shook his pipe slightly, but still did not say anything.
Immediately afterwards, Maude had murderous intent in his eyes, and said word by word: "Only in this way can it be regarded as a real farewell to the past." ”
Thor heard this, his eyes narrowed, and he put down his pipe carelessly.
Is it true to say goodbye to the past......?
"So?"
"I need your help, Thor."
"Haha."
Thor couldn't help but laugh.
Maude didn't care, and continued:
"The other party is a gang of Ka Bang. Becky, they are so numerous that I can't get close to Becky with my strength alone. ”
"So, I need your help, Thor...... If it were you, it would definitely create an opportunity for me to get close to Becky. ”
"Oh? It turned out that the gang did it. ”
Listening to Maude's words, Thor slowly stopped laughing, a little surprised.
I thought it was an ordinary pirate robbery, but I didn't expect it to be a gangster from the underworld.
Moreover, it is still a major gang.
It's no wonder Maud asked him for help.
"I'll help you."
It was not Thor who said this, but Sonny.
Maud couldn't help but glance at Sunny with a serious face.
It's just that, in Maude's opinion, he really doesn't think that Sunny Ny, who usually rarely shows his landscapes, can provide him with any substantial assistance.
Thor also looked at Sunny and said angrily: "I haven't agreed yet, but you're doing it." ”
"You're not going to say no anyway."
"You little girl......"
Thor shook his head helplessly.
He really won't refuse this matter.
On the one hand, as Maude said, only the enemy can be regarded as a real farewell to the past.
On the other hand, he already sees Maud as his own, so what reason is there to refuse?
But he didn't want Maud to become dependent.
After thinking about it for a while, Thor looked at Maude and said lightly: "I can help you, but how to help is up to me." ”
"No problem!"
Maud had no room for bargaining, and when he saw that Thor agreed, he immediately answered.
Thor picked up his pipe again and took a sip.
As if thinking of something interesting, a malicious smile appeared on his old face in vain.
Maud and Sunny looked at each other for a moment.
...........
Ten days later.
The Mad Hatter Auction House welcomes the end of the month.
As the largest auction in Mad Hatter, there are at least two auctions per month.
One is a small auction in the middle of the month, and the other is a large auction at the end of the month.
Interestingly, most pirates only like to participate in small auctions during the month.
The large-scale auction at the end of the month is usually attended by people from the underground world.
This phenomenon has been around for a long time, and it is not deliberately guided by the auction, and there is no way to investigate the reason.
Towards noon, the number of ships at the dock was significantly higher than yesterday.
The extra ships are basically all from the underground world.
Although there are more ships berthed, it is still much inferior to the last grand occasion.
In the evening, another batch of boats came in from the dock.
The auction starts at eight p.m., and the ships arrive in the early evening and are estimated to be the last potential auction guests.
The boat docked steadily into the dock, and in an instant, the crowd of people who got out of the boat went straight in the direction of the wine street.
It's been a while before the auction begins, and until then, the only places to spend time are taverns and restaurants.
Wine Street.
Due to the impact of the auction, the number of customers in the major taverns has more than doubled compared to usual.
The streets are brightly lit, full of alcohol, and the pirates who are hooked on their shoulders can be seen everywhere, as lively as ever.
Suddenly, there was a commotion coming from the other side of the street.
The pirates who heard the movement looked back and looked shocked one by one.
On the other side of the street, a procession of men in black arrived.
The leader is undoubtedly the gang's Ka Bang. Becky.
"It's a gang......"
The pirates watched the impressive procession and hurriedly retreated to the sides of the street to avoid unnecessary clashes.
"Hey, did the gang only bring these people with them this time?"
Some pirates, accustomed to gangsterism, are keenly aware of the different situation.
In the past, the formation of the bandit Becky to Mad Hat Town had never been ambiguous, and every time he brought his younger brothers, even if there were not five or six hundred, there were three or four hundred bottoms.
But this time, Becky only brought less than a hundred younger brothers.
This came as a surprise to the pirates who were accustomed to the bandits.
But they didn't have the heart to investigate the reason, and watched in silence as the frustrated Becky led a group of younger brothers over.
The majestic formation seemed to treat the street as their backyard corridor.
Everywhere along the street, the pirates consciously retreated to the sides, leaving a wide avenue for the bandits.
No one who doesn't have long eyes would dare to stop the bandits.
If there is, it can only be a drunk who can't control himself.
But the bandits don't care if you're drunk or not, and if they're in the way, it's polite not to leave you with a whole corpse.
In the crowd on both sides of the street, Lafayette put her toes to the ground, raised her finger and pressed the brim of her hat, silently observing the bandits.
There was a hint of murder in the gaze that looked at Becky.
"Bunky the Gang."
Lafayette's red lips pursed, and her eyes swept over the gangsters behind Becky, but she was a little hesitant.
Previously, when Becky went out on the street, he would always be accompanied by hundreds of younger brothers.
And now, the number of junior brothers is only about seventy or eighty.
So, it's undoubtedly a good killing opportunity.
However, when Lafayette was inclined to get his hands dirty, he inexplicably felt a sense of crisis.
His instincts stopped him.
In the streets, all that remained was the footsteps of the bandits.
Everyone stopped and watched, patiently waiting for the gang to leave.
In this atmosphere, a young man with a long black and red knife at his waist walked to the middle of the street and faced the bandits coming from the front.
That abrupt move couldn't help but attract a lot of attention.
In the crowd, Lafayette looked at the young man, his eyes shining in vain.
One of the pirates recognized the boy's identity and couldn't help but shout, "It's Usopp!" ”
After shouting, the pirate quickly covered his mouth.
looked left and right, but no one paid attention to him.
Because, everyone else, including the bandits, all looked at the teenager.
"Usopp?"
Becky looked indifferently at the boy he was called, Usopp.
It was a name that never left an impression on his head.
Well, it shouldn't be worth mentioning.
However, the comers are not good.
Becky felt an undisguised killing intent from Maude, but she didn't slow down.
Crash!
Without Becky's command, one of the gangsters suddenly raised his pistol and pointed it at Maud.
That guy is screwed......
Looking at this scene, the pirates on both sides of the street seemed to be able to anticipate Maude's death.
Immediately afterward, they saw a smile on Maude's face.
Actually laughed?
Many pirates were stunned.
At this moment, there was a slight whistling sound in the air.
Before the gunshots were heard, a blood flower suddenly splattered from the temple of the gangster who raised the gun, and he was shot and killed in an instant.
"Uh-huh??"
The sudden change made everyone change color.
What's the situation?
Maude, on the other hand, slowly pulled out the crow.
In order to convince Thor to let him bring a knife tonight, it took a lot of effort.
