Chapter 2: The Story of the Wolf and the Tiger
Outside the South Gate of Gore.
Ignoring the mottled dirt on the outside of the city wall, a little ghost in a fiery red vest leaned so casually, some freckles representing adulthood had already grown on his immature face, coupled with a somewhat shredded hair, adding some bloody wolf nature to the whole person, and the people who came and went around seemed to deliberately distance themselves from him.
It's Ace.
Ace's aggressive gaze locked on the two guys who had just walked out of the city gate, looking like they were just two fools, from the moment they exchanged items for a lot of cash in the store on Center Street, Ace had his eyes on it, although the target was adults, but Ace felt that it was easy to do it alone.
Ace and Sapo are different from Lacis, they have a dream, to become a sea thief and become famous, to realize this dream needs a large amount of money to support, just the ship needs to spend a lot of money, for the primitive accumulation of capital, Ace and Sapo The two little ghosts, every day revolve around the theme of robbery and theft, and slowly accumulate the necessary funds in a small way.
And Lasis is different, all day long hiding in the deep mountains and old forests to constantly hone himself, although sometimes he also goes down the mountain to do similar things, but Lasis basically a quarter down to do a ticket in exchange for some necessary daily necessities, just say that the game, do not put seasonings is really not in line with Lacis's concept of food, in his bones is the blood of the five-clawed golden dragon in the previous life, rich and mixed diet is a very distinctive symbol of that country, and occasionally Lasis who goes down the mountain has also won the title of "Tiger".
As for the origin of the "tiger", it is because Lasis was born with a huge blue ink tiger-shaped birthmark on his left neck, which extends from the tiger's tail on the left neck to the tiger's head on the left shoulder, with teeth and claws, like a skinny tiger coming down the mountain, and only when the entire left shoulder is exposed, can people get a glimpse of the whole picture.
A soft, cold voice rang in his ears, and Ace, who was ready to attack, had to turn his head to the face that he hated.
Still squinting and smiling, maybe born with small eyes? Ace suddenly thought in a trance.
"Didn't you hear me? Do you want us to join forces? You don't know who that money belongs to, do you? If you don't do your homework, you'll die, Brother Ace. ”
Following the direction of Ace's gaze, Lasis dragged his trademark flip-flops towards him, seemed to think again, raised his hand and made a "six" gesture.
"Four-six accounts, you four and I six, it is necessary!"
Ace has a strong hostility towards the people around him for unknown reasons since he was born in his mother's womb, Sabo and Lasis can be regarded as two special exceptions, the former can be said to be a dead friend, sharing weal and woe, the latter can only be said to be a simple hate, but it is far from disgust, let alone a hostile relationship, maybe even Ace himself doesn't understand why he doesn't like Lasis as a person, in terms of heads-up, Lasis is indeed a few points better than himself, but this is far from being a bullshit reason, If this is also counted, it will seem that you are not good enough, it doesn't matter if you lose, just fight back, it's like "a good man after 30 years", and put a familiar vane in front of it to surpass, to be more motivated, or life seems meaningless.
Until today, Lasis made the gesture of "six" and the tone of proposing "four or six accounts", Ace suddenly had an enlightenment, and suddenly had an epiphany, feeling that he had really reached a level in knowing people, and I don't know if this is an important sign of maturity and the sea.
I used to be young, I didn't understand it very clearly, and I always felt that this guy was very annoying, but now I found out that this guy has been putting on an adult posture to preach to himself, as if he made it clear that he would not refuse, and he used aggressive words without leaving room for anything, as if he had seen through everything.
Don't look at Ace in the eyes of others is just a mad dog that bites people when he sees it, in fact, he is very brainy, and his posture on the surface is just a means of self-protection to cover people's ears, and he can't believe it, just like Lacis, who always likes to squint and smile at everyone in an arc, whether it is the owner of the ramen shop on Center Street, or the old beggar who is lying on the garbage mountain and checking the garbage on the ground, as long as he is not a guy who tears his face openly, he can treat each other politely, and his face is harmless to people and animals, and in the eyes of others, he only knows "Colber's downhill tiger" The fight is very powerful, it is a hard piercing, it is not easy to provoke, but to what extent is it powerful, I believe that not many people can answer, so that people do not understand the nature of this tiger cub at all, which is also due to Lacis's consistent policy, adhering to the code of action that good rabbits do not eat the grass next to the nest, and will never attack the aborigines of the garbage mountain, and only Ace and Sabo know best what this tiger cub is like, in their opinion, the wrists of the yin people behind this tiger cub are endless, and there is no ambiguity at all, there are laws and regulations, There are countless guys who don't know who did it, and in the end, they just think that they are ruined and eliminated.
Ace can have an in-depth understanding of Lacis, because they have had some experience of cooperation, although there is usually a little friction, but once on the battlefield, it is really a bit of a "partner" taste, back to back, the two sides complement each other, Ace is good at attacking, Lasis is good at strategizing, plus Sabo who is in the middle of the lubricant, the "three" has an unstoppable edge, ironic tight, the craziest one is the information that Lasis doesn't know where to get it, the three of them pass through the escape channel dedicated to the Gore royal family, Late at night, he secretly sneaked into the palace in the high city from the open sea and searched fiercely, and during the operation, the whole process was calm, as if a large vault opened the door and asked for it at will, and it was soft to get it, even in the current "pirate ship deposit", the value of the loot also accounted for a large proportion.
That time there was a big fuss.,Even the secret service agency directly under the world coalition government "CP" also intervened in the investigation, after the madness, Ace and Sabo regretted it at the time, and the one standing opposite was not the "giant" they could compete with, it was a huge organization composed of more than 170 countries, and it was estimated that it would be easier to pinch them to death than to pinch them to death, only Lacis should still do what he should do, with a look of Gu Bo not surprised, it was a kind of calmness in his bones, It was also the first time that Ace felt impressed, and since then, although there is still something wrong on the surface, at least Lacis's advice in private Ace can always listen to a little bit.
"I made a lot of money this time."
"Mr. Polshemi is right, for the greedy merchant rushed out with a change of expression as soon as he heard of the treasure of the great voyage."
"Actually, it's all just scrap that has drifted to the shore."
"Thankfully, that guy is a young guy who hasn't been to the sea, but so are we."
The two stunned men with huge sums of money obviously haven't realized that they have become two little fat sheep who have stripped their clothes in the eyes of a pair of tigers and wolves and are just waiting for how to divide the spoils, and there are talking and laughing along the way, and Lacis, who is hanging behind, even feels that these two stunned people who don't even have a little vigilance are completely embarrassing the faces of the pirates, although they are only hanging the title of "trainee pirates", but they are also disgraced to the profession of "pirates".
A wolf, a tiger, if you are about to leave, follow behind.
Wolves and tigers are not easy species to get along with, especially when they are hungry, tigers and wolves often compete with each other.
"Even if it brings important information, it's sixty percent too much!! At most, 20 percent!! Ace always speaks so straightforwardly, which makes Lasis who likes to knock on the side step by step feel helpless, no matter how good Lasis is at language art, how prominent is "If I don't remind you, you may lose your life" The simple central idea of "I saved you", Ace still insisted on two percent, and did not let go, Ace's statement is very simple: Even if I don't know that the money belongs to the Broujem Pirates, But after the incident, I could have taken refuge in the big forest of Kolber Mountain, and then I would come out for a walk when the limelight had passed.
The Blujem Pirates have been stationed in the inner bay of the garbage mountain for a while, and it is rumored that because they bought off the nobles who were in power in the high city in private, basically as long as they don't make trouble in the big city, in the garbage mountain outside the south of the city, the boss of the pirates, Blujem is the master who covers the sky with one hand, even if he lets Lassis do it alone, he also robs the money and runs away, hides back in his cabin, and lives his own comfortable little life, in order to avoid its edge, it is not Lacis's style to be tough, so Ace's statement is not unreasonable.
The little ghost has grown up, it's not boring......
Lasis thought for a while, raised his eyebrows, and asked casually: "Brother Ace, you said that the bandit Dadan is against that Blujam boss, who has a higher chance of winning?" ”
Dragons have reverse scales, and maybe wolves have too.
The little wolf turned, grabbed the tiger cub's collar with one hand, and slammed it down on the rubble by the side of the road.
"You threaten me !!"
The wolf nature is revealed.
It seems that even if he has a strong hostility towards the people around him, in Ace's heart, he still cares a lot about the bandits who have raised him for 10 years, which is called the gratitude of the people.
Lasis who was pressed against the wall was not panting or beating, not speaking or struggling, still looking like he was not in the oil and salt, and let Ace hold it, it was like a straight right punch that was ready to be launched as a super kill, but it was like a punch in the air, which made people feel aggrieved and heartbroken.
Weighing the pros and cons, Ace let go of his clenched fist and took two long breaths to calm down.
"Sixty percent, but there are additional conditions, if you need to go to war with the Blujem Pirates one day, you have to participate in the war as an alliance!"
The tone is a little lonely, although Lasis is a little unscrupulous, but at least he is an honest person who keeps his promises, and he will not do some immoral things that violate the yang and yin to tear down the corners of his own walls, to put it bluntly, he will either not mix, or go all out.
"Deal!"
