Chapter 420: The News Goes Wild

As a veteran crew member of the Hundred Beast Pirates, the head of Moxigan is still quite reliable, he lived up to Ember's trust, and completed the order ahead of schedule at dusk the next day.

For a time, many busy people in the newspaper office turned their backs and hurried up to produce the news, adding this exciting news to the front page of the next morning.

So, as day and night turned again, and dawn quietly came, the news of Katakuri's defeat at the hands of the Wind Sword Hao Xia Nuo quickly spread to the rest of the world.

…………

Chambord Islands, Area 13.

In a bar called "Xia Qi's Bamboo Knocker BAR", Reilly is sitting at the bar, drinking wine while laughing and talking with the tavern lady Xia Qihaha.

Suddenly, the shutter door behind him was pushed open suddenly, and a bold voice came from afar:

"Hahahaha, Miss Xia Qi! Trouble three barrels of beer, everyone in the tavern today, I'm here to treat! ”

"No problem." Xia Qi took a cigarette in her mouth, answered with a smile, and turned around to get the wine.

And Reilly didn't have to turn around, he knew who was behind him, and couldn't help but chuckle: "Why, is there any happy event, the last time I saw you make such a big move, it was when Brother Xia no defeated Jack the Drought." ”

"Hah! Or Lao Lei, you can guess accurately! ”

The man who came was none other than Kelral, who was also a coater, and he sat down at the bar with a big grin, slapped the money bag in his pocket on the table, and then took a newspaper from his bosom and threw it in front of Reilly:

"Well, the fresh newspaper just came out this morning, you can see it yourself!"

"Oh?"

Reilly put down his glass, picked up the newspaper with great interest, glanced at the front page, and found a bold headline written on it:

[The battle against the king's Seven Martial Seas Xia Nuo was defeated, and the undefeated myth of Katakuri, the head of the four generals, was shattered! ] 】

The following is a report with a considerable length of text, from the approximate time and place of the two fighting, to the detailed process of the battle, and the ending of Xia Nuo's failure to kill and let go of Katakuri, all of which are mentioned in great detail.

However, I didn't see the photos at the scene, and only used the photos of the wanted warrants of Katakuri and Xia Nuo, and compared them together, which can be regarded as a replacement.

"Have you even defeated a guy like Katakuri......

After quickly browsing the report, Rao is as calm as Reilly, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, "It's really amazing, it seems that this little brother Xia Nuo has increased his strength a lot compared to a few months ago." ”

Unlike the relatively young Jack of the Drought, Katakuri is already in his fifties, and belongs to the old powerhouse who has already made a name for himself decades ago, and Reilly has a deep impression of this undefeated monster junior before he has completely retired.

Unexpectedly, this guy's undefeated legend would be shattered today in the hands of a little guy who has only entered the new world for a year......

"How's that, I'm scared!"

Looking at Reilly, who was deep in thought, Kailar grinned, "I have expected it a long time ago, Xia Nuo, this guy I saw when I separated from him in the East China Sea, this must be a monster who will have a great future in the future, and even one day, he can become the world's number one swordsman!" ”

"You......"

Looking at the excited and proud Kellar, Reilly couldn't help but smile and point.

However, this mood can also be understood, after all, he also had this experience when he was young, and it was happier and more exciting to see a partner with deep feelings for him break through and achieve success than his own success.

As for the title of the world's number one swordsman.

Reilly took a sip of his wine, a smile on his lips - it was someone else, and he would only think that this idea was too unrealistic after comparing it to the current world's number one swordsman who was used to being a loner, but if it was this little brother Xiano......

After remembering the impression that the other party left on him when they met a year ago, and the terrifying growth rate of strength since entering the new world, he suddenly drank the remaining wine in the cup, and then laughed:

"That's right, Kairal! That day is not far off! ”

Then, taking advantage of the moment when Kairal grinned, he glanced at Xia Qi, who was returning from taking wine, quickly put down the wine glass in his hand, and trotted all the way out of the tavern.

"Huh?"

Kairal was stunned for a moment, and before he could figure out what the situation was, Xia Qi had already put the beer keg heavily in front of him, and then let out a long puff of cigarette, and said with a sympathetic expression: "Hey, Kairal, you just said that everyone in the tavern will settle the accounts of everyone, right?" ”

"Uh......"

A bad premonition flashed through Kellal's heart, "That's it, what's wrong?" ”

"Nothing."

Xia Qi took another puff of cigarette, looked at the direction where Lei Li's back disappeared outside the shutter door, and said leisurely, "Lao Lei hasn't settled the bill yet, since that's the case, you can even pay his share." ”

"Three cups of special hand-blended cocktails, five glasses of North Sea Ball wine, ten glasses of premium craft beer, a total of 860,000 Baileys, no credit, no work."

After lightly quoting the price, Xia Qi hummed a little song and turned around to clean up the wine cabinet, leaving Kairal, who was in a petrified state, sitting there with a dull face.

Naval Headquarters, Marin Vando.

On the wide boulevard, a sturdy and tall figure is facing the evening breeze and setting sun, walking leisurely.

It was a muscular middle-aged man, dressed in a lilac striped suit, sunglasses, a black beard, with healthy wheat-colored skin, black hair tied into a wild ponytail, fluttering in the wind behind his head, and behind him, a white cape embroidered with the words "Justice".

Judging by the attire, this is clearly an admiral of the Admiralty.

"What an amazing view......

The middle-aged man looked at the particularly majestic fortress of the Navy Headquarters under the sunset, stretched his waist, and let out a sigh of satisfaction:

"I've finally completed my mission and returned to the headquarters, so I can enjoy a good rest for the next month......

As he spoke, he habitually took out a cigar from his arms, and just after a little fire, before he could take a puff, a rapid shout suddenly came from behind him:

"Lieutenant General Maynard! Lieutenant General Maynard!"

"Huh?"

The middle-aged man turned his head to look, but saw a young naval captain, who was running towards him from the other end of the boulevard, and finally came to him, and gasped for a long time before he said anxiously:

"Mr. Lieutenant General, I have finally found you! Come with me quickly, the marshal of the Warring States has an urgent matter to summon you! ”

"The marshal wants to see me?"

Maynard frowned, and felt a scorn in his heart, estimating that there was a task showdown, and it seemed that his hard-won vacation was about to be reimbursed again.

However, he did not show it on his face, and after nodding, he followed the captain towards the fortress.

………

Five minutes later, on the top floor of the fortress, the marshal's office.

Tuk tuk.

There was a knock on the door, and Sengoku, who was sitting behind his desk, was buried in a pile of documents, and when he heard the voice, he didn't even have the space to look up, but simply said:

"Come in."

The door was pushed open, and Maynard's figure appeared, and he came to the opposite desk and gave a standard military salute: "Marshal, do you have anything to do with me?" ”

"Hmm."

Warring States bowed slightly, didn't say anything long-winded, and directly pushed a newspaper in front of him, "You can take a look at this report for yourself first." ”
