Bang Bang Bang!
Huo Di, the man in the iron mask, slapped his palms lightly and chuckled: "Well said, really good said!" β
Then, with a gentle wave of his hand, "Bring someone to me!" β
Cyrus, Scarlet, Violet, and Rebecca were all brought in, and several pirates watched them.
The people around King Riku let out a burst of exclamation, shocked by the scene in front of them.
"Lord Cyrus!"
"Lord Cyrus was caught by pirates? How is this possible! β
"How so? Even a man as powerful as Lord Cyrus has been defeated by pirates, is there any hope for us? β
"Princess Violet has also been captured by pirates!"
"And that is...... Princess Scarlet? Isn't Princess Scarlet dead? How did she get caught by pirates too? β
"Who's that little girl that Princess Scarlet is pulling? Is it her daughter? β
β¦β¦
The people around King Liku were stimulated, and their morale dropped significantly.
Cyrus tried to move, but he was tired from top to bottom. In order to guard against him, the pirates injected him with anesthetic. Now he was weak, his whole body was confused, and he couldn't even speak.
Violet was locked in the handcuffs of Hailou Stone, and without the ability of the Devil Fruit, her combat power was not worth mentioning at all.
Scarlet don't worry, fight five scum. Rebecca is the same, she is powerless to fight.
Several pirates brought them to the crowd and looked at King Riku in front of them with a sneer.
King Liku shouted a few times with an anxious expression, calling out to Scarlet and the others in front of him. Several people said a few words and comforted each other.
King Liku said with an ugly face, "Iron-masked Pirates, what do you want to do?" β
Huo Di, the man in the iron mask, smiled and said, "Your Majesty King Liku, we agreed before. As long as you give us a ransom, we will release them.
But you don't listen! He even sent Cyrus to save people in the dark, and as a result, Cyrus was also compensated.
But that's okay, I can give you another chance! As long as you give me 100 billion Baileys now, I can give them all back to you! β
King Liku roared, "A hundred billion Bailey? Even this country is not worth 100 billion Baileys! β
Huo Di, the man in the iron mask, chuckled, "Really? That's going to be a tough one! So, how about we play a game? β
King Liku said vigilantly: "What game? β
Huo Di, the man in the iron mask, said: "I heard that you are hypocritical and righteous, and you have won the love of the people......
"Shut up!"
Huo Di's words were interrupted, and Violet said angrily: "My father is a good man, you are not allowed to say that about him!" β
"That's right! Under the rule of His Majesty King Riku, our lives have been peaceful. Even in this chaotic era of pirates, even in this most chaotic new world, Dressrosa is one of the few places to stay! β
"His Majesty King Riku is very merciful and often sends His Majesty the King of Riku to help us. Dressrosa is poor, but peaceful! Your Majesty King Riku, he is a good king! β
"The Liku King's army repelled the pirates and helped us rebuild our home!"
β¦β¦
The people of Dressrosa shouted, and it was clear that they were very supportive of King Riku.
Huo Di, the man in the iron mask, sneered: "Peace? Yes, Dressrosa is indeed peaceful. But do you know how your peace came about? β
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Huo Di, the man in the iron mask, smiled coldly: "Because you ...... Poor!
Because you are so poor, neither other countries nor pirates have any interest in attacking you. The laborers came with a crowd, but in the end they couldn't grab anything, so they gave up here.
Your peace comes from the disdain of a powerful enemy!
Dressrosa under the reign of King Riku, poor but peaceful? No, it's poverty so peace!
The sea pirates don't look down on this place, only the little pirates will be interested here.
However, those little pirates are too weak to defeat your king's army, and the damage they cause is limited, so they give you a false sense of peace.
This peace is false! As it is now, my power has shattered this false peace.
Do you understand? The peace of the weak is a gift from the strong, and your peace is not given by the king of Riku! β
After Huo Di, the man in the iron mask, suddenly became eerily quiet on King Liku's side.
A group of people looked at each other with a glint of surprise in their eyes.
King Liku's face was also a little dull, and it was obvious that Huo Di, the man in the iron mask, had been stimulated by his words.
All along, King Riku regarded himself as a good king. And Huo Di, the man in the iron mask, erased all his credit.
Huo Di, the Man in the Iron Mask, continued: "This topic is over, let's move on to the question just now. King Liku, do you want to save a few of them? β
King Liku said with a blank expression: "What do you want?" β
Huo Di, the man in the iron mask, sneered: "I said that you are hypocritical, you must not be convinced, right?" Okay, let's make a game and check if you're a hypocrite. β
King Riku came to the spirit, "You say! As long as you're willing to let them go, you can say anything! β
Huo Di, the man in the iron mask, pointed at the king's army and ordinary residents beside King Liku, and chuckled and said, "Kill them!" β
King Liku and the people around him were shocked, and King Liku said in disbelief: "What did you say?" β
Huo Di, the man in the iron mask, said coldly: "I have four hostages in my hands, one for their ten lives!" As long as you take action and kill forty kings or ordinary citizens, I will let them go!" β
As soon as these words came out, the king's army and ordinary residents around King Liku immediately took a few steps back, subconsciously moving away from King Liku.
King Liku was furious, "What kind of bullshit game is this? How could I possibly harm my military and nationals? Let me hurt them, or let me die! β
Huo Di, the man in the iron mask, smiled: "Are you sure? If you don't kill them, I'll kill these four hostages.
When the time comes, your two daughters, your son-in-law, and your granddaughter will all die!
Have you figured it out? Really want to give up on them? β
King Liku looked sad and angry, raised the sword in his hand and was about to rush over, "I'll fight with you!" β
"Stop, if you move again, I'll kill her!"
The Man in the Iron Mask sneered, pulling out a sword and slashing it across Rebecca's neck. Young Rebecca shivered, her little face full of panic, and tears kept rolling down.
"Rebecca!"
"Rebecca!"
King Riku and Scarlet shouted at the same time.
"Father, I beg you to ......"
Scarlet knelt down in front of King Riku and wept silently, "If it were me, I would be willing to give with my life." But Rebecca, she's still a child......"
Violet was silent, she didn't want to die. But she was afraid that King Liku would be embarrassed, so she kept silent.
Cyrus was in a trance, unable to say anything.
Scarlet didn't care about anything for the sake of his daughter.
