Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Sharing of Spoils Without Spoils
Chapter Ninety-Nine: There is no distribution of stolen goods
In the face of Elmez's inquiry, Gangzi shook his head and lied; "No, I don't see any ships other than Littlefinger, and it seems that you are also tracking the Kraken Walker to the Applegas Islands, but I have heard of the reputation of the Kraken Walker, and it is indeed inappropriate for you to send two sloops to catch her."
Of course, Gangzi didn't know what Casey's reputation was, but that didn't delay him from using vague words to fool the two pirate leaders in front of him. The two pirates each nodded and admitted Gangzi's statement, and it seems that Casey does have some ability, and his strength has been recognized by the two pirates.
If you can't find Casey, you can't find the treasure, and there is no way to talk about the spoils, and the negotiations between the three of them have come to a standstill before they have even begun.
Gangzi said: "Regardless of whether your men have captured Kraken Walker or not, Jack's treasure is determined to be in this Applegas Islands, and we are extremely lucky for those guys who are looking for Jack's treasure all over the world." No matter how large the Apulgas Islands are, there is a limit, as long as we are patient and search, we will definitely find them. ”
Since Gangzi promised to put back Pulley and Littlefinger, One-Legged John first supported Gangzi's statement: "Captain Gangzi is right, the Applegas Islands are indeed very large, but there are not many islands suitable for burying treasures, the only trouble that hinders us is the complex environment in the archipelago, but we have a lot of ships this time, as long as we take a little time, we can find a safe route, Jack's Black Pearl has no way to be buried in the ground, it should be a very obvious treasure marker." ”
Gang Zi and John One's words persuaded Elmez, and he walked to the bow of the dinghy, his strong body pressing the bow down heavily, but his body did not shake in the slightest. To Gangzi and John. Elmez said extremely savagely: "Good! For the sake of the treasure, I can temporarily cooperate with you, but I want sixty percent of the treasure. ”
Hearing this, John the One-Legged immediately jumped up, and struck the dinghy with the prosthetic leg of his stick: "You ugly fat man who can only play with birds, why do you want sixty percent of the treasure." I have the most ships, so I should have the right to distribute the treasure. ”
Elmez looked at the one-legged John with contempt: "If you don't want to lose your other leg, quickly admit my assignment, your time has passed, lame, I am the man who will rule this sea in the future." ”
"Ahem......" Gangzi reminded the two who were arguing to pay attention to their presence. As an advocate of our tripartite cooperation, I am very disappointed that you all intend to share sixty percent of the treasure, I am a well-educated Oriental, and humility is my virtue. I only need thirty percent of Jack's treasure, this is my bottom line, if anyone is ready to tell me to take less, please be ready to accept my anger. ”
During the quarrel, the one-legged John and Elmez found that they had indeed ignored the existence of Gangzi, and the two pirate leaders still agreed to Gangzi's request for thirty percent of the treasure and the power shown by the Black Sail Pirates. So the two of them began to quarrel again over the remaining seventy percent of the treasure, who would take three percent and who would take forty percent. The two pirates are not compatible, and taking a little more treasure means that they are more powerful in this sea, in order to be able to trample each other under their feet in the future. The two pirates stood like shrews in their respective boats, scolding each other across the sea, arguing from day to night.
The full moon rose into the sky, and Gangzi, who had been dozing off a few times earlier, opened his confused eyes, saw Elmez and One-Legged John, who were still arguing, and said, "It's not early today." The two captains should go back first, about the distribution of treasures. We'll talk about that tomorrow. ”
After a day's argument, the two pirate captains were already arguing with dry mouths. Hearing Gangzi's proposal, the argument ended, and after warning each other with their eyes, they prepared to leave.
While directing the boat to return, Gangzi said to the one-legged John: "Captain John, according to our oriental customs, it is very rude not to entertain guests to dinner, I will entertain Captain Poole with a feast, and when Captain Poole finishes dinner, I will ask him to join you on the Littlefinger, I am very honored to meet the famous one-legged John today." ”
Gangzi's little sycophant called One-Legged John extremely useful, and after thanking Gangzi for his hospitality to Puley, he glanced at Elmez with a provocative look, and Elmez looked at the departing figure of One-Legged John and wanted to step forward and tear him apart.
Returning to the "Flying Henanese", Gangzi released Puli and prepared a sumptuous dinner for him: "Captain Puley, the incident during the day was indeed a misunderstanding, and now I am very good friends with Captain John, John's friend is also my friend, here I specially brought the fine wine from the East, according to our custom, if you accept my apology, please drink this small glass of wine." ”
Puli looked at a huge sea bowl in front of him, and wondered in his heart, "Do Orientals call such a wine bowl a small cup?" But watching Gangzi take the same "small glass" of wine, Puli could only attribute it to the mysterious customs of the distant East.
A large bowl of wine was swallowed up by Gangzi in one word, and Puli had to pinch his nose and pour the wine in front of him into his stomach.
But he didn't expect that the matter was not over, Gangzi asked the attendant to fill the wine bowl for the two of them again: "I grew up listening to the deeds of the one-legged John, this time I am really happy to see the one-legged John on the way around the world, I want to give him a good drink, but unfortunately I didn't invite John over today, according to our oriental customs, you are going to drink a small cup for him, to ask us to honor John." ”
A bowl of belly.
"The moon is in the sky tonight, according to our oriental customs......"
A bowl of belly.
……
Soon, Gangzi used inexplicable oriental customs to pour Puli on the table.
After confirming that Pulley was unconscious, Gangzi hiccuped and complained, "Why is there a salty smell in this water, didn't you scoop water directly from the sea and pour it into my bowl?" ”
Christol pulled Pulley up the door, turned back to Gangzi and said, "Didn't you say that the water was too light and told us to add something?" ”
"You don't know how to add salt, do you?"
“……”
In a daze, Pooly was put into the captain's room of the Littlefinger, and after his head was dizzy, he fell asleep on the bed after the command of the one-legged John, and then the Littlefinger slowly set off towards the fleet of the one-legged John pirates.
Gangzi stood on the bridge of the "Flying Henan People" by touching his round belly supported by water, silently looking at the far away Little Finger, and the Black Sail pirates were quietly busy on the deck, slowly moving the guns to load the ammunition, for fear of making a little movement.
The already small number of clouds in the sky slowly dispersed, and the moon grew brighter and brighter. The three fleets parked on the surface of the sea could easily see each other, and Littlefinger moved slowly under the gaze of the three sides, which was just a bored gaze of the pirates as they stood guard. Although the Parrot Pirates and the One-Legged John Pirates were on the alert to each other due to the unhappiness of the day, this move that had been agreed upon during the day did not arouse the alarm of both sides.
The short distance did not take Littlefinger much time, and it slowly sailed into the tail of the fleet under the command of the sailors on the one-legged John's flagship. After learning that Pooreye's captain, Pooly, had fallen asleep drunk, John's pirates turned their attention to the Parrot Pirate fleet after laughing at each other about Pooly's capture.
Today's quarrel between Elmez and the one-legged John, they all looked at Elmez, the notorious pirate, and John had to fight for a twelve.
Because of this, none of them noticed that Littlefinger slowly aimed its side at the parrot pirate fleet, and one by one the gun doors opened, and the muzzles of the guns poked out.
On the Cockaut, the flagship of the Parrot Pirate Fleet, during the day a pissed Elmez poured a large bottle of whiskey, yelling that he must make John's one-legged look good tomorrow, and then he got drunk, leaving his budgie on the birdstand repeating "damn lame" and "damn lame" on the bird stand.
But Elmez did not sleep long, for a series of dull roars woke him up, and he immediately judged that it was the sound of cannons, and before he could stand up, the parrot shook and threw him to the ground.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”
Elmez, who rushed out of the captain's quarters, saw sailors scurrying around, grabbed one of his men and asked, "What's the matter?" Who is attacking us! ”
"Boom, boom, boom......"
There was another flurry of cannons, followed by the swaying of the Parrot being shot.
The pirate shouted in a panic, "It's the one-legged John, it's the one-legged John attacking us!" ”
"Fake, this dead cripple from the Holy Land Anna, fight back! Fight back now! All the ships fought back and threw the cripple into the sea. ”
Hearing that the bombardment was coming from John's fleet, Elmez was furious, and then remembered John's last look of contempt, and was even more furious, and immediately ordered all the ships of the parrot pirate fleet to attack John's fleet.
One-legged John, after receiving the news that Littlefinger has entered the fleet, he has a more favorable impression of Gangzi in his heart. After he lost a leg in a battle, he knew better that blindly fighting would only lead to his own destruction, but as the leader of a pirate regiment, he could not help but be ruthless, or at least pretend to be ruthless.
During the day, although he earned as much as Elmez, he was afraid of Elmez's fierce eyes and strong body.
"The Black Sail Pirates' Gangzi may be a trusted partner, or perhaps the two of us should join forces to destroy the Parrot Pirates, so that we can divide Jack's treasure equally. Well...... Gangzi doesn't seem to be a greedy person, maybe he will agree to the distribution of four or six, which is already one more than the thirty percent in his mind, hahaha......"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
John's laughter muted to an abrupt halt, "Who! Who's firing! (To be continued)
