Not wanting to be pursued by the navy on the island, Rhodes made a situation where he had escaped by boat, and then quietly returned to the island.

This method may not last long from the Navy, but it doesn't matter how long it lasts for Rhodes, he just wants to figure out what the situation is.

"Let's go to Geer City."

Rhodes glanced at the town he had lived in for a year, shook his head, and then turned and left along the path, heading to the bustling town in the middle of the island.

There was an underground intelligence organization in that town, and a large proportion of the many pirates he hunted were obtained there.

Follow the trail and climb over the mountains.

Two hours later.

Rhodes wore a fur hat with a lowered brim and walked the streets of Gul.

He didn't deliberately hide his whereabouts, and the people on the side of Geer City didn't react much, it seems that the matter of Tamo Town should not have spread here.

But Rhodes doesn't just want to know about Tamo Town, he also wants to know who made him carry the black pot and get out of the situation of being chased by the navy.

And just as Rhodes was walking towards the location of the underground intelligence organization, a large number of newspapers suddenly spilled from the sky on the street not far away, and many people picked up a newspaper and read it.

"Unbelievable!"

"Ghost Hand Rhodes...... Actually looted and slaughtered a small town? Didn't he sanction several pirates with bounties of tens of millions?! ”

Many people looked at the newspaper and looked shocked.

Rhodes paused in his footsteps, pulled the brim of his hat down a little more, and walked past the crowd, silently picking up a newspaper.

Tarot Town Massacre!

The town, which was inhabited by just over 70 people, was looted and slaughtered overnight, and the entire town was burned to ruins.

Rhodes' face darkened the more he looked at it.

At this time, the voices of many passers-by next to him also came into Rhodes' ears in a steady stream.

"I really didn't expect that Ghost Hand Rhodes would be such a terrible pirate!"

"I've said it a long time ago, pirate hunters are similar to pirates, they are both depraved guys for money, and it's not unusual for this kind of thing to do this kind of thing."

"I hope the Navy will arrest this guy sooner."

The fingers holding the newspaper gradually became stronger, and the newspaper became crumpled, and Rhodes was silent for a moment, then turned and walked into the alleyway next to him, and casually threw the newspaper in the trash.

After crossing a few streets.

Rhodes made his way to a tavern, empty except for a proprietor sitting behind the counter yawning.

Rhodes walked into the tavern, glanced at the owner behind the counter, and without speaking to the other party, he walked directly into the inside of the tavern, pushed open the door of a room, and walked down a staircase that led to the underground.

The staircase is extremely narrow, but when you reach the end, you suddenly see an open room with many exquisite tables and chairs, like a high-end tavern.

“…… That's big news! ”

"Ghost Hand Rhodes, tsk, in this way, we will have one less business-stealing peer in the future."

"It's not just a few peers, the Navy will definitely issue a bounty, I don't know how high the bounty will be, I don't think it will be less than 20 million Bailey!"

Several pirate hunters sat on the couch and talked about it with a few newspapers in their hands.

It was at this moment that Rhodes stepped down from above.

As soon as they saw Rhodes, everyone's discussion stopped abruptly, and all eyes converged on Rhodes, with different expressions for a while, some with sneering eyes, some with raised corners of their mouths, and some showing a little nervousness.

Rhodes didn't show any anger or anything like that on his face, but a palpitating calm, and he glanced indifferently down the hall.

There was silence in the room.

No one made a joke or anything like that, although the situation Rhodes is facing now is very bad, and he may even be hunted down by the navy with a bounty, but his strength is recognized as strong among pirate hunters!

Most of the other pirate hunters work in teams, and most of the targets are pirates with bounties of less than 10 million, even if they hunt pirates with bounties of more than 10 million, it is only occasional.

Like Rhodes, who acts alone, and in just a few months, has hunted several sea pirates with a bounty of tens of millions in a row, the strength is undoubtedly a few strong, and in the pirate hunters and the underground world, strength means status.

“……”

Seeing that no one was talking, Rhodes withdrew his gaze and walked straight to the interior of the hall, pushed open a door, and walked inside.

It wasn't until the door was completely closed that someone in the hall exhaled.

"Whew, I didn't expect him to come here, ...... at this time"

"It seems that the encirclement and suppression of the navy has completely failed, and it is still useless as always." Someone took a sip from a wine glass.

"I don't know how this will end up, but by the way, what do you think he's doing here? He can't be a pirate hunter anymore. ”

One of the people next to him shrugged and said, "Who knows?" Maybe you want to get out of here after getting information about the navy. ”

……

The inner hall of the underground building.

It's much quieter here than outside, and the soundproofing is excellent, so you can't hear any outside talk when the door is closed.

The inner hall is not large, with only a sofa, a bookshelf, and a desk.

Behind the desk sat a middle-aged man with a thick beard and a cigar in his mouth, who was the leader of this underground intelligence organization, Tren.

Next to the desk.

A young girl about sixteen or seventeen years old, with black shawl hair, was sorting out a pile of documents with a serious expression, as if she was silently remembering.

The girl, despite her immature appearance, recognized her directly when Rhodes first saw her a few months ago.

It was none other than Nicole Robin, the son of the devil in the original book.

Today, she is still struggling to survive, hiding in the underground world, and is currently a key figure in this underground intelligence organization, with a strong memory, she writes down all kinds of information so that it can be handed over at any time.

"Oh, oh, isn't this the ghost hand Rhodes? I didn't expect you to come over at this time. Tren, who was sitting behind his desk, looked up at Rhodes.

"The timing is not so good."

Rhodes looked at Tren calmly and said, "You must already know about me, so you should know what information I want." ”

The corners of Tren's mouth lifted slightly, and he took off the cigar in his mouth, and said, "Tarot Town?" I happen to have insider information here, but with your current status, selling you the information will take a lot of risk, so the price needs to be doubled. ”

Rhodes stared at Tren for a moment.

"No problem."
