There was silence in the tavern.

Faces stared at George's back, either frightened or gritting their teeth.

Watching George's movements, the seven big men who followed him in sneered and walked towards the guests in the tavern with bad intentions.

Wild knew what they were going to do, and he had heard from the chatter that these people would come to the tavern from time to time every month to collect protection money, and there was an obnoxious rule that the guests in the tavern that day also paid the protection money.

At this time, the actions of these seven big men were self-evident, and sure enough, a rustling sound soon sounded in the tavern.

Although unwilling, the guests did not dare to resist, the tragic situation just now is still in front of them, and there is no other way except to pay the money obediently.

Of course, there were also people who resisted, and a tall strong man stood up, and just as he wanted to run, a sharp knife instantly passed through his chest.

"Poof!" The big man with the knife drew the machete with an expressionless face, bringing out a piece of blood, and while picking up the meal supplement and wiping the blood on the knife, he sneered and looked at the others.

The strong man pounced, and his body fell to the ground stiffly.

The others screamed in horror when they saw this scene, suppressed the careful thoughts in their hearts, and hurriedly took out the money on their bodies.

"yes, wouldn't it be okay to cooperate obediently?" The seven big men sneered as they put the money into the bag.

At this time, George ignored the actions of his men behind him, and came to the bar, looking at Pike in the bar with a cruel smile.

As soon as he came over, a few guests around him who had just been drinking and bragging were so frightened that they didn't dare to speak, and they didn't dare to sit, so they stood there obediently and waited for those big men to come over and collect protection money.

Only Wild, who didn't seem to see all this from beginning to end, drank quietly alone, and seemed very abrupt in this tense and solemn atmosphere.

In the tavern, only the sound of drinking from a certain seat at the bar was very clear, and everyone looked at it with hellish expressions on their faces.

The smile on George's face froze for a moment, and he turned his head to look at the person next to him.

Under the shroud of a black robe, he couldn't see clearly, sat casually, crossed his hands on the bar, raised his wine glass from time to time to drink a sip of wine, ate a mouthful of meat, and the whole person had an indescribable momentum and calmness.

George's eyes changed slightly, then he smiled with interest, turned his head, and looked at Pike, "So, old man, is it time to pay this month's protection money?" You know, I asked others to turn it in a few days in advance, that is, Pike, I deliberately delayed it for a few days, in order to reduce your pressure, thinking about it, I am really a good person for the sake of others. ”

For him, the tavernkeeper's protection fee is the big one, and those guests George won't be too excessive, everyone only needs to give a symbolic five thousand Baileys, and the real big head is still on the boss.

Pike obviously knew that there would be such a time, and apparently this kind of thing happened every month, knowing that George's personality was impossible to intercede, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and he nodded.

"Please wait a minute." As he spoke, Pike bent down and pulled out a cloth bag from under the bar, which was so heavy that you could see from the protruding corners that it was full of Bailey.

"Oh, you're still empathetic, old man, I like your cheerfulness, it's good for everyone, isn't it?" George smiled and grabbed the bag, opened it, and saw Bailey inside, and said with satisfaction.

Wilde drank quietly, without any opinion or action on all this.

Pike hesitated, looked at George and said, "For the sake of such cooperation, please..."

"Please don't embarrass the guests next time."

George's smile narrowed a little, and he stared at Pike quietly for a moment before smiling anew, "Of course, I'll let them do their best, but you should also understand our difficulties, right?" If they cooperate like you, I promise, they won't be hurt in the slightest. ”

After saying that, ignoring Pike's reaction, George turned to several of his men and shouted, "Hurry up, you guys, we have to hurry to the next one." ”

"Okay, Boss!" The seven big men sped up, and the guests who were a little slower were scolded, and soon, the seven people came to the bar.

Several men who had just been drinking at the bar quickly took Bailey out of their pockets and took the initiative to put Bailey into the cloth bag that the seven were carrying when they walked towards them.

"Haha, you guys are good!" The seven men laughed wildly at this, and then they set their sights on the last person who didn't pay the protection money, a man sitting at the bar covered in a black robe.

"Yo, you can still drink, you have good guts." One of the big men came over with Leng Li's machete, stood beside Wild, and looked at him with a sneer.

All he answered was the sound of drinking in the silence.

The big man felt very faceless, frowned, and just wanted to make a move, this is George walked over, waved his hand, and asked him to step back, and then he stood next to Wild, half-squinting at Wild, who was drinking by himself.

"Should this friend pay the protection money? If you're in doubt, then I can explain it to you, the rules here are like this, when the protection fee is charged every month, the guest..."

"Get out." Wilde in front of the bar put down his glass and spat out a word faintly.

The tavern was silent, and the guests and Pike were all mouths wide open, and their Adam's apples stirred.

A thought arose in everyone's hearts at the same time - he was dead.

George's smile stiffened, and the cold killing intent spread out from him, and his fists slowly tightened.

"You... What did you just say? His voice trembled, but it was cold.

Wilde raised his hand in the wine glass for a moment, then drank the wine in one gulp, did not speak, picked up the big bone and took a bite full of meat.

Only the sound of rejecting the piece of meat in the tavern rang out, and it was clearly heard in everyone's ears.

"Look for death!" George's face instantly turned hideous, and he raised his hand to grab Wild's shoulder.

"Let's go!"

Wilde didn't look back, one hand grabbed the big bones and meat and ate it, but the other hand grabbed the hand that came from behind like a swift Jiao.

George's face changed for a moment, and he felt as if his hand was being held by an iron tong, and he couldn't break free or move.

At this moment, Wild's hand suddenly loosened, and George suddenly fell backwards because of the excessive force, and sat on the ground with a blue and red face.

"Up!" George didn't know that the other party was not simple at this time, stood up, waved his hand, gritted his teeth and spit out a word.

"Die!" George let out a frantic sound.

Wilder put down his glass, and only then did he move, slowly stood up, and turned around.

At this time, the seven big men plus George had already drawn their knives and guns and aimed them at Wild.

George looked at Wild with a cruel and crazy grin, "Shoot!" ”

As his voice fell, the seven big men pulled the trigger in time, and seven guns fired bullets at Wilder at the same time.

Dealing with this kind of character, Wilder couldn't arouse any interest at all, and his figure flashed and disappeared in place.

George's faces changed drastically.

At this moment, there was a sound of breaking the air in the air, and more than a dozen bullets that had been fired continuously shot out of the air were ejected from the air.

"Poof!" A large man was pierced by a bullet in his knee, and he let out a scream of pain and fell to his knees.

"Poof!" A bullet pierced the wrist of a big man, and his grip on the gun suddenly let go, and the short gun fell to the ground, rolling on the ground in the same pain.

Bullets rushed through the air, and suddenly, a scream and a sound of falling to the ground sounded, George was hit by four bullets at the same time in both hands and knees, and the whole person fell to the ground and howled.

It wasn't until everyone was tumbling on the ground that Wild's figure was revealed, and the tavern was silent.

"Bang dang!" A few gold coins fell on the bar, and Wilder said a few words to the boss in the bar, as if he had received some response from the boss, nodded, and turned to walk outside.

Everyone watched as the man shrouded in black robes walked towards the outside of the tavern, until his back disappeared into the doorway, and he still did not come back to his senses for a long time.

After a few moments, there was a gasp in the tavern, and everyone looked in the direction of the door with a look of horror.

"Who is he?"

There was a lot of talk in the tavern, and at this time, no one noticed, and George, who was lying on the ground, stared at the door where Wilde had left, his eyes bloodshot.

He struggled to his feet, the tavern fell silent, and everyone fell back in unison, away from him.

Although George looked a little miserable at this time, no one dared to run out and be a bird at this time.

George walked to the bar, his hands propped on the bar counter, and looked at the owner in the bar with bloodshot eyes, "Pike, tell me, what did that guy just tell you?" ”

"No... Nothing, he just asked me where I could find a shipbuilder here. Parker looked at George's blood-red eyes, hesitated, and said.

"Really—" George whispered, bowing his head.

……

After leaving the tavern, Wild did not rush to the area where the shipyards were concentrated, but wandered the streets and experienced the unique customs, which was his favorite thing to do everywhere he went.

Wilde didn't pay attention to what had just happened in the tavern, and it was just an episode for him, and he couldn't get on the table.

As for why you didn't just kill George? Wild didn't really want to, because then he was afraid that he would inevitably kill people everywhere he went, and with his current relationship with the Navy, he would kill people... To be honest, although it won't have much impact, but after all, if you kill more, you will be discovered, especially in these lively venues, once you are found to be killed, it doesn't matter if you are found to be killed, the main thing is that the identity of the criminal who was originally eliminated and all the culpabilities will probably start to accumulate again, and it is not the time to pierce this protective film at this stage.

The naval fortress can be on your doorstep, once it is listed as an enemy by the navy......

A cold light flashed in Wild's eyes, he would not allow all this to exist for too long, whether it was the blockade of the aunt, or the protection of the naval fortress at this stage, the monitoring and threat in the future.

Wild has never ignored the issue of naval fortresses, but he doesn't want to mention it, because he doesn't have the strength, and it's useless to mention it, so it's better to lie dormant first, and wait until he has accumulated enough strength to break all this.

Navy, Four Emperors, Seven Martial Seas, World Government, Revolutionary Army...

How to survive and grow in between, Wild Wilds knows that he still has to take advantage of the situation, the power of the Navy and the World Government, and use it to restrain the power from the Big Mom... Even the threat of the Four Emperors.

And as much as possible during this period of security, to the point of arousing the hostility of the Navy...... It's time to blatantly take advantage of the power of other forces.

But before that, the first thing to do is to pull out the threat of Big Mom.

Only after this one thing is completed can you strike at the naval fortress.

Eradicate all threats and become one of the most powerful forces in this world that cannot be ignored, and only then will you have the capital to fight for everything.

And with this capital, it means that he can develop without scruples without worrying about attracting anyone who wants to move the knife against him, and the deterrent force will make his peers dare not act too rashly, and he will take advantage of this opportunity to continue to develop, until... When everyone saw him as the biggest threat.

"I'm afraid it's too late by then." Wilde thought about it, and couldn't help but smile excitedly.

When you have the confidence to face the joint fight of all forces, you will not be afraid of a battle, and if you defeat it, you will be the master of the world, and you will be defeated......

It's worth it, too.

It's a big deal, and there are no regrets at that time.

Wild Flavors and Specialty Ingredients didn't want that to happen, though.

Walking on the bustling streets, appreciating the different customs and customs, Wild and Wild felt a special flavor.

This stroll, from time to time stop to drink a unique juice drink on the side of the road, eat a skewer of grilled meatballs and seafood, taste the unique and delicious salt flavor, unconsciously half a day has passed.

"It's almost time to get down to business."

Wilde turned around and headed for his destination.

"Fried Dinosaur Chicken! Fried dinosaur chicken, a string of 3,000 Belles, cheap and affordable! ”

"Sand sculpture fish! Fresh sand sculpture fish, take a bite to make the whole person sand sculpture! ”

"Costumes! New Arrival Men's Edition Shirt! Buy 1 get 3 free! Buy 2 get 5 free! ”

"Boss, I'll buy one."

"Okay, 10,000 Baileys a piece, these are four pieces, you can take it."

"Hmm... I'll buy another one. ”

"Okay, here's four, take it."

Along the way, the shouting continued, Wilde tried the dinosaur chicken, and by the way, he glanced at the shopkeeper next door who was eating sand sculpture fish and selling clothes, shook his head, said a word of sand sculpture, turned around and left.

When stepping into another area, the cries are muffled by another, and the sound of clanging and buzzing carpentry is everywhere.

Wilde walked to the area of Dock No. 1 and entered a shipbuilding workshop to explain his intentions.

"I need some boat builders."

The shopkeeper who was working looked up at Wilde a few times, then shook his head, spat out two words, and got to work.

"Nope."
