Chapter 61. Discolored logs
"Wait a minute, old man, 300 million Bailey, I'll be ready for you soon."
Kazan negotiated a deal with the hunchbacked old man, and finally settled on the figure of 300 million Bailey, and the two of them did not react in any particular way after agreeing on this number, as if 300 million Bailey was not money.
300 million Baileys is an extremely large number on most of the islands in the four seas, but for some countries, 300 million Baileys is like a drizzle, less than a fraction of the heavenly gold handed over to the Draconians.
300 million is not a small number for Kazan, but in the past year or so, he has slaughtered so many sea pirates in the West Sea and robbed two or three world government member countries, although the saved Bailey has spent a lot on the continuous processing and transformation of the ship, but there is still more than 200 million, and counting the heads in this rainbow town is almost enough.
It just so happened that this time they came out to buy materials, so before leaving, they brought all the money from their pirate ship over and put it on the fishing boat.
In the original play, Frankie spent 200 million Bailey to buy a piece of treasure tree Adam, although Kazan spent 300 million, but he bought a lot, and although the value of the rainbow log is not as good as Adam and Eve, it is also one of the top materials, and it is not a loss at all.
Since von Clay and the others hadn't brought Bailey with him, Kazan had no choice but to continue chatting with the hunchbacked old man, who didn't seem to be in a hurry anyway.
"Old man, where did you get this rainbow log? Yes... It's okay if you don't tell me, I don't really care. ”
"There's nothing hard to say, I have a nephew named Umet, although he has just started to do this part of the sea, but he has already achieved a little bit of success, and I got it all from him."
"Uh... Haven't heard of it. ”
Listening to the words of the hunchbacked old man, Kazan first thought of one of the kings of the future underground world, the Sea King.
However, Kazan didn't remember what the name of the Sea King was, and it was still more than ten years before the Sea King became the underground king, so he quickly dispelled the idea that the other party would be the Sea King.
"Hahaha, it doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it, anyway, you are such a strong little guy, are you coming to Rainbow Town to prepare to enter the great voyage?"
"No, don't you buy materials to build a ship first... Once the ship was built, it was almost time to go and see it. ”
"By the way, I'll take you to see the rainbow wood first, you can see how you plan to take it, that thing is not easy to move."
"Ah, this is indeed a problem, so I'll go and see it first and prepare in advance."
Kazan and the hunchbacked old man chatted as they walked to the warehouse where the materials had been placed on the other side.
Along the way, Kazan was still wondering, the news of his contact with the 'Red Dog' and the 'Rainbow Log' merchant was impossible for those gangster pirates not to know, but there was no one around them staring at them at all, and in Kazan's sight, it didn't look like the hunchbacked old man's men had made a move.
And even if Von Cray and Bellamy have done a lot, they are only two and a half people after all, and it is unreasonable to get rid of how many people they can get rid of.
Until you come to the door of the warehouse.
Looking at the people lying on the ground around the warehouse, Kazan nodded with a relieved look.
The Great Voyage is coming.
Kazan looked at the seven or eight 'bodyguards' who had been standing around the warehouse, and he had a number in his heart, and in what he had seen and heard, almost every one of these seven or eight people had a strength close to Bellamy's level.
can find so many good bodyguards, it seems that this Umit should not be an ordinary commodity.
Kazan glanced at Monet, who looked like a little secretary next to him, and spread his meaning with his eyes: Umit, you can pay a little attention.
Monet was glanced at by Kazan and felt inexplicable, and suddenly her brain waved, and she sensed what her brother meant: I'll take you to open a room later.
Kazan and Monet looked at each other for three seconds, nodded together, and reached a consensus.
Kazan was very proud that he had such a big tacit understanding with his little sister, but Monet's blushing appearance and began to twist his body made him a little puzzled, and secretly guessed whether Monet was not feeling well.
"Open the warehouse."
The hunchbacked old man motioned for the two bodyguards behind him to open the door.
As the door opened, Kazan thought that a rainbow light would suddenly flash in front of him and blinded his eyes, so he narrowed his eyes cooperatively.
"That's it?"
Kazan looked at the ordinary lump of broken wood in front of him, and he didn't see any difference from ordinary wood.
"Hahaha, surprised! When you look at it, it's the first time you've seen a rainbow log. ”
"How?"
"A real rainbow log is just like ordinary wood, it looks the same, but it has a very special property, that is, it changes color!"
"Discoloration..."
Kazan listened to the old man's words, fantasizing that their monster pirates would be yellow and green on the sea in the future, and their faces would be black.
If that's the case, don't want this rainbow wood!
"Don't think about it, it's a permanent discoloration, and once it's a certain color, it won't change back."
"And such strange characteristics?"
"It's really rare to be in the four seas, isn't it? But if you go on a great voyage and see all kinds of creatures there, you will think that this wood is actually like that. ”
"Woo... So how do you make it discolored? ”
"You can touch it, the rainbow wood will be infected and discolored by the person you touch, and then keep that color for the rest of your life."
"Does the color change have anything to do with people?"
"It should be related, but there is no way to verify, in order to transport this batch of wood, I heard that my nephew wasted a lot of effort, and he couldn't let his subordinates touch the wood along the way."
Kazan nodded, then walked over to the batch of rainbow logs, reaching out and stroking one of them.
Everyone present stared intently at the log, which began to slowly change.
The wood is constantly changing in the seven colors of the rainbow, and finally freezes on... Black?
Is there black inside the rainbow seven colors?
The hunchbacked old man's eyes widened, his body tensed, his neck stretched, and he showed a surprised look like an old king.
He shifted his gaze to Kazan again, why would a guy with blood-colored eyes and left hand make it black?
"Monet, you try."
Kazan didn't know that rainbow logs couldn't be transformed into colors that weren't found in the seven colors of the rainbow, so he wasn't surprised that one of the pieces of wood had turned black, black was exactly the color he liked, and he loved black silk the most.
"Okay, brother~"
Monet staggered over to Kazan's side, chuckling and reaching out to one of the undiscolored logs.
But her trembling arms were a sign that Monet was not as relaxed as it seemed, that she was nervous.
Red! Red! Red! It must be the color of my brother!
