Three days later, in the early morning, Leo and Sebaan, along with the Grammys, managed to smuggle out of Eiffel City and landed in the Mediterranean Islands in the town of Nanshan Vineyard, where they agreed to meet the bounty hunter Flovald.

Fearing that Saibaan would not recover from his serious injuries and be robbed by Flovald, Leo chose to follow Saibaan and let the Grammys go to the grape orchard alone.

The two sides met on the back of the agreed island.

The impression left at first sight when they met was still different from Leo's guess.

…… Rather than wearing a shoddy linen shirt (as is the case with most pirates), Shokublade Flovald was rather elaborate, wearing a black and blue bodysuit with only the cuffs open to help him stab in the night.

The ...... that attracted Leo the most Or the ribs around Flovald's waist.

Yes...... The first time he heard the curtain blade, Leo thought that he had heard it wrong, and then he thought, how could it be the curtain blade? It's probably a coincidence, the other party should be a swordsman or something......

But now it seems that Flovald is more of an Assassin.

So the origin of the name curtain blade is probably because of that rib difference.

"You're Flovald?"

Saibaan carried the box and watched as the man leaned against the edge of the cliff with a flirtatious face with his arms crossed...... There is nothing special about the appearance.

The man chuckled at the corner of his mouth and didn't speak, but just reached out to hold the hilt of the knife and slowly pulled out a blade......

The cold and hazy cold light seemed to stab Leo in the eye.

"Seeing a knife is like seeing a person, a good knife 50 workers - [Twilight] right, it's really a good knife."

Sebaan searched for a lot of information to try to understand the man Flovald. I know that his favorite thing is his saber, and the biggest feature is this saber.

Killing is invisible in the night, and the sword light has arrived in the haze.

Even among all the good knives, Twilight is the top-ranked one...... Not only is it beautiful, but it's as sharp as a big knife.

As for Leo, he thought to himself.

He doesn't have the knowledge of Saibaan, and for the famous knives in the One Piece world, under the 21 works of the big fast knife, Leo only remembers [Little Night Rain] and [Huazhou] and [Snow Walk], but as many as 50 famous knives must be scattered all over the world, and it is normal not to have heard of them.

Twilight...... Could it be from that very special hazy sword light just now?

An apt and beautiful name.

Leo made up his mind.

"Bang!"

Saibaan placed the box in his hand on the ground, and when he opened it, it was full of banknotes.

"It's five million Baileys, deposit. I want you to kill the Gambino brothers in Eiffel City, and after that, there will be five million. ”

Flovald stared at the money unmoved, but raised an eyebrow.

"Not enough."

"Not enough?"

Saibaan was very unhappy, this was all the property they had after collecting the assets of the Xilin family.

"Yes, don't you know that Gambino Colchester is actually an animal-grizzly bear fruit powerhouse?"

Sebaan was silent, of course he knew, so he thought Colchester was the strongest man on the island.

"Add another 10 million, and I can help you kill that capable person, but only this person."

According to Leo's judgment, if it is a person with strong physique and animal ability, then Colchester is indeed worth a bounty of 20 million.

The strength is basically comparable to Ah Long in the East China Sea.

"No money."

Saibaan replied bluntly.

At this point, he was a little overwhelmed.

"No, you have."

But Flovald was very interested in working with Sebaan.

"Huh?"

"As long as that bear is dead, his brother won't be afraid, and the entire Gambino family will be at your disposal, right?"

“……”

"20 million, will it be a deal?"

“……”

"Give you another three seconds to think about it."

“…… Deal! ”

Saibaan gritted his teeth.

Indeed, as Floward said, as Colchester is dead, with the strength of Saibaan, he can easily defeat Alister.

In fact, Sebaan was the first master of the Cillin family, and was once rescued by the Grammy's father, and since then he has supported Cillin to gradually rule the Eiffel City until the arrival of the Gambino family.

"Very well, then wait for my good news."

Floard waved his hand, turned and walked away.

"You...... Don't you need an IOU? ”

Saibaan was stunned.

"No, I don't."

Flovald's voice seemed to come from afar.

"If you break the contract, I will kill you with my own hands."

Then the figure abruptly dissipated into the shadows under the rock.

Leo squinted.

This bounty hunter...... Can you really believe it?

……

"How's it going?! Did it work?! ”

In Grape Town, the Grammys looked at Leo and Sebaan expectantly.

Sebaan's face was slightly ugly, and he was extremely upset by Flovald's threat before leaving.

"Barely succeeded."

The Grammys grew small mouths.

It worked?

Finally revenge?

Why doesn't it feel so real?

The young Grammys couldn't understand how they were feeling at this point...... I don't know whether to be happy or sad.

"By the way, 382, do you know where there is a kendo hall?"

Leo's voice interrupted Grammy's thoughts, and he picked up a bunch of grapes from the basket he was holding in Grammy's arms, and asked as he ate.

"What? Do you want to learn kendo? ”

"Of course."

Three major fighting forces in the One Piece world.

Swordsmanship, physical arts, Devil Fruit abilities.

Shooting was excluded by Leo, which is something that requires talent, and in the case of Leo who can't throw garbage three meters away, it's better to give up.

And he himself has the ability of the Devil Fruit, but the [Stealing Fruit] cannot form an actual lethality, so Leo focuses on swordsmanship.

He was interested.

"A lot, if you want to learn."

"I'll leave it to you when that's done."

After seeing Twilight, Leo is eager to get a famous knife of his own.

"Speaking of Grammys, do you have some collection of swordsmanship, physical arts classics or something at home?"

"No, why are you asking? Martial arts are all passed down by word of mouth. ”

As soon as the Grammys finished speaking, something suddenly came to mind.

"Still, I think there might be a place where there are books like this."

"Huh? Where? ”

Leo hadn't reacted yet.

Glame gave him a blank look.

"Stupid, that's the O'Hara you used to ask so often! The World's No. 1 Library, The Tree of Omniscience! ”

Leo suddenly realized.

- O'Hara, the Tree of Omniscience?

Leo remembered, and speaking of which, he did ...... a year ago I often asked the Grammys about O'Hara, but when I learned the specific time, I stopped paying attention.

But......

Since the Grammys can still say the word O'Hara, it proves that O'Hara is still safe and sound at this time?

But if Leo guessed correctly......

It's not long before the Demon Slaying Order.

……

Floyard's good news came surprisingly quickly!

Just the next day! While Leo was still asleep, before dawn came, the entire Eiffel City was in great chaos! It is said that Colchester, the Gambino family, was silently killed in his bed while sleeping! And a knife is fatal! Straight to the heart!

Twenty minutes after the incident, Saibaan's phone beeped and learned about it from an informant hiding in Eiffel City, and then Leo was called! The two hurriedly packed their things, preparing to take advantage of this best opportunity to directly invade the territory of the Gambino family! Assassinate Alister!

Grammy was woken up by the commotion of the two, and when she learned about it, she wanted to follow, but was left behind by the two.

Five minutes later, Leo and Sebaan packed up the necessary belongings, walked to the dock to board the boat, and rowed urgently to the city of Eiffel.

…… After that, things went smoothly and unexpectedly.

It stands to reason that the Gambino family is one of the five mafias that rule the West Sea, and support from nearby islands will definitely arrive in a short time, with Leo and Saibaan operating in less than an hour.

But within that hour, Leo and Saibaan managed to assassinate Alister.

It's a little strange to think about......

To be more precise, from Leo pestering the guards, to Saibaan directly storming the castle and fighting Alister one-on-one, and finally killing Alister, the whole process is only a short ten minutes!

Although in these ten minutes, Saibaan can be regarded as the strongest combat power in history, but ten minutes is too exaggerated!

However, in hindsight, it can only be considered that although Alister is the brains of the family, he is ...... in combat effectiveness It's really far from Saibaan, and without Colchester's protection, he can only be regarded as an ordinary person with a strong point.

……

"That's the remaining fifteen million, and it's paid off now."

In the dark warehouse, Sebaan handed over the gold treasure accumulated by the Gambino family to Flovad in the amount of about fifteen million.

"Yes, then our deal is done!"

Flovald smiled very softly, even a little disgusting...... Leo noticed that his eyes were small, so small that when he smiled, there was only a slit left in his eyes, and this squinting eye reminded Leo of a poisonous snake that was ready to attack, so he instinctively raised an alarm in his heart!

Sebaan is also cautious and has been on the lookout for Flovald, fearing that he will make a sudden move.

Because in this warehouse, in addition to fifteen million treasures, there are at least 30 million movable assets left.

And Gambino has more immovable assets in Effil City, with hundreds of millions of ...... But that's not what Leo was trying to do.

"Ah, why are you so nervous? I'm a bounty hunter, you know...... In our line of work, the most important thing is credibility, the task is completed, and I won't want any more. ”

"Yes...... Is that ......."

Saibaan was a little unconvinced, but he still relaxed a little after listening to this passage.

But that's exactly what it is......

Many times, it's just a little bit of relaxation...... Caused to be bitten by a poisonous snake in the shadows!

"Poof~!"

Leo's pupils constricted!

In the dark environment, the familiar hazy sword light suddenly lit up! At some point, Twilight was already in Flovald's hand and stabbed into Sebaan's abdomen!

"You're ......! Burst~! ”

Saibaan's eyes widened in astonishment, his expression full of disbelief! It was the disbelief of Flovald's shot, but also the disbelief of Flovald's superb prowess......

What the...... Time?

For...... What the......?

Cybaan spat out thick blood from his mouth, spilling it on the ground and Floyard's body.

"Ah...... The clothes were all dirty. ”

Flovald still had the same smiling face, but the eyes in the gap were quite dissatisfied, Leo was dominated by fear, and his legs and feet could not move even a millimeter.

He looked at Flovald's waist, and the Twilight was still in its scabbard.

What the hell is going on?!

"Huh? Do you care about this? ”

Flowad glanced at Leo, and suddenly an extremely dangerous horror rushed from his spine to his brain!

Damn it!

Move!!

Leo stiffened, as if he had met a natural enemy.

But from a practical point of view, Flovald is indeed the strongest Leo has ever seen!

It's more than a notch better than Colchester!

It can only be said that he is worthy of the person who has returned from the great voyage?

"Qiang—"

Flovald casually pulled out the ribs around his waist, and Leo could see clearly that it was a clean knife.

But that's about it......

Because it's not [Twilight], just put ordinary, similar ribs.

"This is actually to confuse you."

Speaking of the ordinary rib, Flovald flicked his hand, and the blade cut a ray of light in the darkness and stuck firmly into the wall.

Flowad then pulled out the real Twilight, and blood poured out from under the blade that seemed to glow with a hazy halo, and then the tip of the knife was completely pulled out, and Sebaan fell to the ground weakly.

Flovald lifted the knife to "vibrate the blood", scattered the blood on the blade without dropping, and finally tucked it into the scabbard at his waist.

"The real [curtain light] has always been hidden in my cuffs, just to make people mistakenly think that I am a swordsman, wary of my drawing of the sword, but ignore my real means."

"So, you're not a swordsman, but an assassin?!"

Leo calmed down a little and added.

Flovald raised an eyebrow in surprise.

"Yes, I didn't expect you to be young, but you can tell the difference, a very sensible child, it's a pity that you're going to die."

No...... I still haven't been able to tell the difference between a swordsman and an assassin, or Sebaan wouldn't have died.

Leo thought to himself.

He should have realized it a long time ago......

The difference between an Assassin and a Swordsman is that an Assassin is always unscrupulous, and the fake is both true and false.

"I never understood why Saibaan would take you with me, and at first I thought you would be some kind of special ability, and I was wary...... As a result, hehe! This guy is also naïve to the extreme. ”

Flovade kicked Sebaan's body and shook his head in dissatisfaction.

Leo felt himself gradually regain control of his body, took a deep breath, and decided to delay a little longer.

"What about you? Aren't you a bounty hunter? Don't you care most about word-of-mouth? Didn't you keep saying that you don't want any more?! ”

As soon as the words fell, Flovald's gaze at Leo turned into a look like an idiot, but then he was relieved to remember Leo's age.

"Oh...... Quite simply, the bounty hunter's mission is over, and it's time for me to take on the role of a pirate. ”

"Sea ...... Thief! ”

Leo gritted his teeth.

"Yes."

Flovald began to gather the gold jewels.

"You're still naïve, boy. What is a Bounty Hunter? An existence that does everything to survive. And what is a pirate? It's also a guy who does all kinds of evil in order to survive, so is there really a difference between them? ”

Flovald's words woke Leo up.

Yes......

Most bounty hunters are indistinguishable from pirates.

Maybe a second ago he was a hunter with rules for trading.

The next second, you will play as a pirate, thus reversing the relationship between hunter and prey!

Sure enough, I was still too naïve.

The world of One Piece has never been a safe and beautiful place, not all pirates chase their dreams, and not all bounty hunters hate pirates and have a bottom line.

They are more of unscrupulous executioners for the sake of profit!

Flovald carried a backpack full of gold jewels and looked down at Leo with contempt at his side.

For Flovald, this robbery was just a quick one, and it was just the right time to place the blame on Leo and Sebaan, so as not to offend the Gambino family and cause unnecessary trouble.

"Goodbye, boy. I hope to have a good baby in my next life. ”

Flovald pulls out Twilight again and stabs Leo mercilessly.

"Poof~!"

Thick blood splattered.
