After Tang Ke went out, he rummaged through his pocket, only to find a few shiny copper coins, and then recalled that his gold coins were given to the bustard, he patted his head, and secretly scolded himself for having a hot head at that time.

But he said that he would buy clothes for Wendy, and he couldn't break his promise. He pulls down his face to find One-Eye, and asks for pocket money.

One-Eye sighed and said, "Everyone else makes money after becoming a pirate, but I'm good, it's just a matter of making money." ”

Tang Ke patted One-Eyed on the shoulder and swore solemnly: "Don't worry, after getting rid of the black toad, we will go to the south to do a few more cases." My brothers were born and died with me, and they didn't make any money, and I couldn't help it. ”

One-eyed is just a casual scratch, of course he will not be stingy with money, and ordinary clothes can be bought with just one silver coin.

Donk gives the money to Flora and tells her to buy Wendy and himself some clothes, and tells her to buy sturdy and loose clothes, as well as a standard captain's suit. Flower Dew is overwhelmed by this task, she has been growing up on the island and is not good at buying and selling clothes.

Hualu's surname was weak and he didn't dare to tell Donk that he didn't dare to go, so he ran to Seba Stephen for help.

Seba Stephen closed the heavy book "Where I Come From" in his hand and said very reluctantly, "Well, I'm willing to serve the lady." ”

It didn't take long for the clothes to be bought, and Donk asked Dew to bring them to Wendy, thinking that the two women should talk more about it, maybe it would reduce Wendy's resentment now.

Because of the new captain, Tang Ke's identity was pushed down the river to become the head of the regiment, and he ordered everyone to be summoned, intending to tell everyone to completely change their tunes and call him the regimental commander.

When everyone arrived, after counting the circles with one eye, he was surprised: "Why is there one person missing?" ”

Everyone nodded again, and there was indeed one missing.

Donk didn't pay attention at first, thinking that it was just the sailor sneaking out to play, and he said angrily, "When this kid comes back, give him twenty mouths!" How can you run around without my orders? ”

A day later, the missing sailor still hadn't returned, and it was only then that Donk sensed the seriousness of the situation. If you extrapolate from the time, the sailor disappeared from the day of the scoop.

One-Eye finds Donk, and the two sit across from each other, chatting about it while drinking.

"I have a guess," said One-Eyed with a calm face, "that perhaps the sailor was captured by the black toad's men." ”

"No need to guess, it must be." Tang Ke said firmly, because the missing were the sailors recruited by the system, with that loyalty, it was impossible to turn their backs on the Evil Dragon Pirates!

"The people of the black toad don't dare to make a big deal here in the pirate city, but with a little trick, it is still possible to catch a person for questioning, and if it is done secretly, it will be difficult for the guards of the pirate city to catch their handle." One-Eye analyzed.

"When they caught our people, they would torture them and ask us about them. Especially about my ability to create whirlpools. ”

"Luckily, you haven't played your cards with anyone, and the sailors don't know how good you are." One-Eye said happily.

"Although the sailors don't know the truth, they have seen me use the whirlpool twice and can roughly describe how long the whirlpool was used. I can only last five minutes, and I can only summon one at a time. This information is still known to the sailors. Donk said with a little concern.

"In this way, the black toad people will look for weaknesses in this to deal with us."

Tonk drank the rum in his toast, which had been made from sugar cane juice for three years, and he looked at One-eyed and said, "If you were a black toad, what would you do to me if you knew this information?" ”

One-Eye thought for a while, then dipped his finger in the wine, drew it on the table, and reasoned from the perspective of a black toad: "If you can create a whirlpool, then any ship will be destroyed, even the Black Whale is no exception, so if you want to defeat you, you can only fight more and fight less, at least two ships against you." ”

"But 'you' only have five boats, and there are four exits here, how many can you block?"

Unhappily unfazed, One-Eye continued: "But 'I' have money, and I can recruit sailors on a temporary basis and buy ships!" As long as you have twelve boats, then you are in danger! ”

Tang Ke slapped his head, and now he was in trouble, and he said in embarrassment: "Does the black toad have such a lot of financial resources?" ”

"They definitely have, but they don't necessarily get it ready so quickly! Because we'll be out to sea tomorrow morning! One-Eye said eagerly.

Tang Ke pestled his chin and showed a fierce look, and soon he would have to meet the black toad at sea again, and then he would have to fight to the death!

"One-eyed, in this way, they can send up to three ships against us. Afraid of the whirlpool, they will spread the fleet and let one of the ships approach us as soon as possible, as long as the two ships are close together, there is no need to worry about the whirlpool. Because we can't create a whirlpool under our own ship. ”

"That's right." One-Eye nodded.

"I can only use the vortex once, so I must not use it at first, but I have to keep it as a hole card. Since they will try to use broadside combat in the first battle, we will accompany them to the end! "After their first ship is engaged in broadside battle, the other ships will come to meet them, because Harold wants to capture me and abuse me slowly, and when the time comes, their three ships will join forces and besiege our medium-sized ship." ”

"Wouldn't we be in danger in that case?" One-Eye exclaimed.

"Why did you forget, I can summon people!" Donk sneered, "Once they abandon the advantage of the big ship's firepower, I can defeat them with a steady stream of crowd tactics!" I only have one boat, but I can summon more people than their three! ”

Tang Ke is right, he now has more than two thousand points, and a white-bladed sailor only needs three points, so if he summons it, it will be more than six hundred people! And each of them is extraordinary! He could even imagine the scene of the sea being stained with blood.

And after Donk arrived in the Pirate City, he also added a new magical creature that can be recruited, that is, the Stinger Sea Vitex!

The plant is shaped like an octopus and is covered with spines, making it extremely lethal to people on board.

Just like when you learn tricks, you can also see vivid images on the screen to recruit magical creatures. Tang Ke could clearly see the whole process of the stinger sea wattle raging, this plant is definitely a big killer.

It is even possible that the combat power of the stinger sea thorn is stronger than that of a few hundred people. It's just a guess, and Donk has to try it on a real battlefield.

The two discussed for a long time, thought about all the tactics that the black toad would use, and studied the way to crack it. One of the most feared is that the black toad does not fight the broadside battle, but chooses to shell. In addition, the two ships of the Black Whale and the Purgatory are also problems.

The Inferno can breathe fire from all sides of the ship's hull and shoot fire projectiles, which is a fatal blow to a wooden sailing ship. And the giant spitter frog sitting on top of the Black Whale is also a tricky opponent.

In the afternoon, Tang Ke sent people out to find out the news of the black toad, and these groups of people went out in groups of three or five, but they didn't have to worry about being picked up. In the first half of the night, the spies came back one after another, bringing with them some news that the black toad's men had left at noon, and it seemed that they had set out in all directions, and had set up an ambush ahead.

If the ship is specified to be moved to a port in a fixed direction, it will be a few days faster than the secret dockyard operation, and this time difference has contributed to a gamble-like naval battle between the two sides.

The last group of people returned, and Tang Ke had been waiting in the hall, and hurriedly asked, "How is it, have you found any useful news?" ”

The men grimaced, and one of them said hatefully, "We found our missing brother, who is dead and now being left on a street corner." He wrote something on the ground before he died, and he should have something to tell us, so we didn't dare to move, and wanted the regiment commander to go and see it first. ”

Tang Ke changed color slightly, and his heart was stabbed, it seems that the black toad killed the person after questioning!

The group hurried to the corner where the body was, and after crossing two streets, they found it, which was as quiet as a cemetery, far from the hustle and bustle, quite secluded, sandwiched between two high walls. A corpse with blood on its chest leaned against the wall, its head drooping.

Saiba Stephen was sensitive to the wound and stepped forward and undressed the corpse.

On the chest of the corpse, a row of blood-drenched words was engraved with a knife: This is what happened to you!

Obviously, this is a provocation by the Black Toad Pirates to the Dragon Pirates.

"The fatal wound is not a knife wound, but here." The ship's doctor pointed to the upper abdomen of the corpse, where there was a bullet hole, "This is the liver, it won't die immediately after hitting here, and you can live for a short time." ”

One-eyed eyes flickered, and the gunshot wound reminded him of Hawkeye, the enemy he had to get rid of.

"The pattern I'm talking about is there, he drew it with his fingers before he died." The man who first found the body pointed to the ground.

Donk leaned over and took a closer look. On the ground of the deceased's hanging right hand, there is a strange pattern under the hand, like a ghost drawing, which makes it impossible to see why. But after watching it for a while, Donk found the clue.

Although the pattern is painted crookedly, if you look closely, you can see that the deceased painted the flag of the dragon pirate group!

The deceased's only concern was the pirate group, like a child thinking about his home, so the last thing he drew was the pirate flag.

Donk didn't say a word, only his chest rose and fell like a bellows, and he felt his body temperature rise, and a tyrannical emotion overflowed his chest. His blood was burning, his bones were taut, his soul was roaring.

"Do you want to tell the guards of the Pirate City about this? If they track down a black toad, they'll give them a look! One-Eye asked.

"No, you don't!" Tang Ke gritted his teeth and said, "Our revenge, we will avenge it ourselves, we don't need the help of others, I want to give an explanation to the deceased." ”

Donk personally carried the corpse of the deceased and walked all the way to the shore, and the inhabitants of the pirate city had long been surprised by the corpse, but no one would be frightened by the corpse.

They dug a pit on the shore and buried the body in silence.

Tang Ke said coldly: "Who gave me a knife." ”

The pirates unsheathed their weapons and handed them over.

After taking the sailor's scimitar handed to him, Donk plunged it into the grave, using the scimitar as a tombstone.

This pirate will be buried here forever, and his soul will eventually look out to the sea.

There was a moment of silence, a message of condolence was recited, and then they departed gloomily, leaving behind a chilling scimitar and a pirate's grave.
