Chapter 63: Drinking Wine and Eating Meat
The process of drinking and eating meat is not really much worth talking about, after all, Smoker himself is not a talkative and chattering person, and Sauron has nothing to say to the two admirals.
Even if the pheasant wants to warm up the atmosphere, in the end, his enthusiasm alone cannot ignite the other two. The prestige of the admiral can indeed intimidate a large number of people, but Smoker is his junior and friend, and Sauron is a newborn calf who is not afraid of heaven and earth, and putting on a bad face on this occasion is not in line with the pheasant's temperament, nor does it have much effect.
Sauron remembered Sabo and the Blade of the Wind, so after a few bottles of wine, he got up to take his leave, and before leaving, he did not forget to remind Smoker that he would send someone to the hotel where he was staying tomorrow to get the money.
Zoro didn't hide the news that he was going to leave tomorrow, firstly, the pheasant asked a special question, and secondly, it was not news worth concealing, so he directly told his itinerary.
And the pheasant was naturally not idle enough to follow Sauron to Alabastan, and when he heard that Sauron was going there, he only mentioned in passing not to provoke the sand crocodile Klockdahl.
Although he is also a natural fruit ability, Klockdahl, who has been famous for many years, is much stronger than Smoker at this stage, and Sauron's ability to win Smoker does not mean that he can also defeat Crocodall.
After all, the Smoke Fruit is notoriously chicken-ribbed, while the Rustle Fruit of Klockdahl is extremely domineering, especially since Alabastan is a kingdom located in the desert. With a natural geographical advantage, Klocodahl's strength can be doubled even more.
The pheasant knew very well that the green-haired boy in front of him had a promising future, but the young man's youthful frivolity and higher heart would make him suffer a lot. Klockdahl is not as good-tempered as a pheasant, and can still be pleasant when provoked by a young man (of course, provided that the provocateur is not a hostile force), and will only beat the offender half to death, and then either subdue it for his own use, or give the other party a pleasing death depending on the mood.
But looking at Zoro's indifferent attitude, the pheasant knew that his reminder was most likely useless.
"What do you look at when everyone is gone, drink." Smoker raised his wine glass to block the pheasant's sight, and frowned: "Also, tomorrow when he leaves, you should leave quickly, Rogge Town can't accommodate you as a great god." β
Retracting his gaze, the pheasant looked helplessly at the older problem children in front of him, and smiled bitterly: "It's rare to take a vacation and you still have to drive me away, you treat your seniors with such an attitude?" β
"Heheβ_β" Smoker sneered twice: "The group of guys at the base of the sixteenth branch of Ming'er are going to escort the prisoners to prison, and it just so happens that you can go and leave by hitching." β
After taking a sip of wine, the pheasant picked up a piece of meat with a fork and put it into his mouth, chewing and muttering: "Speaking of which, the rat colonel of the sixteenth branch base is dead?" β
Smoker nodded: "Well, I was stabbed through the body by the pirate dragon." β
"Didn't there be information that he was in collusion with the Dragon Pirates?" Speaking of this, the pheasant's eyes hidden behind his sunglasses narrowed slightly, and his words exuded an aura of non-anger and self-authority: "Why did the two of them suddenly kill each other as soon as this Roronoa Sauron arrived?" β
Shrugging, Smoker said he didn't know: "Who knows, maybe it's because of the uneven distribution of the spoils." β
Speaking of Colonel Mouse, Smoker couldn't help but pout: "Such a naval scum who colluded with pirates, if he dies, he will eliminate harm for the people." β
Hearing this, the pheasant glared at Smoker with a little headache: "You......"
Pheasant is very aware of his own junior character, obviously there are some things that can be said but cannot be done, and some things that can be done but cannot be said, but Smoker always ignores some unwritten unspoken rules and acts according to his own wishes.
Even the admiral, the pheasant, must abide by these rules of the game, but Smoker, the iron Hanhan, is so upright. This is also the reason why Pheasant is very optimistic about Smoker and can become friends with him.
"Speaking of which, you guys are making such a big fuss at the docks, why hasn't anyone come out to see the warships of the 16th Branch?" The pheasant suddenly realized that he seemed to have overlooked something very important.
"The upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, how good can the soldiers under Colonel Mouse be, I guess they all go to spend all day drinking." Maybe it's because of the alcohol, maybe it's enough to trust the person in front of him, and Smoker is a little less rational in speaking at this time.
"Be careful!" Pheasant tapped on the table, reminding Smoker not to talk nonsense.
After receiving a reminder, Smoker also knew that he had lost his words, and some words really couldn't be said, at least not from the mouth of an admiral like him.
"I remember that there were a lot of prisoners on the warships of the 16th branch base, could something happen?" The pheasant also has a good understanding of the "market" in the East China Sea, and knows that some low-strength branch bases are not the opponents of the sea pirates, and he is afraid that something will happen at this moment.
Hearing this, Smoker also put down his wine glass, frowned and said, "No, I went to see it before, and the group of fish-man pirates were beaten to the ground, and they were basically useless." β
"But there's a Chloe there." The pheasant knows that there is a hundred kloes in the East China Sea, and his IQ is not low, and he can turn the navy chasing him around purely by his intelligence.
"Oh, that Chloe." Smoker also laughed when he heard this name, "Didn't he be sent to the prison of the 16th branch base by Roronoa Sauron before, and then he wanted to escape from prison secretly when Colonel Rat took people away, but he finally escaped and met Roronoah Zoro and was sent back to prison again." β
Compared to Smoker, there was no trace on the pheasant's face: "It's not funny that the navy's prison was successfully escaped by pirates, and Chloe can escape from prison once, and he can escape from prison a second time." β
Pulling out a piece of paper and wiping his mouth, the pheasant stood up and motioned to Smoker, "I'll go to the docks to see what is going on, and you'll follow after you pay." β
"Hmm." Smoker nodded, realizing the seriousness of the matter.
If the captive, who had been reported in the news, had been taken under his nose, he would have become the joke of the entire navy.
As he was paying, he caught a glimpse of Sauron's position, and it suddenly occurred to him why Sauron appeared at the docks so coincidentally, and invited him to fight so coincidentally, could it be him......
No, it shouldn't.
Shaking his head, Smoker shook the unrealistic thoughts out of his head.
The pirates who sent themselves to prison and rescued them with their own hands, this kind of thing that Sauron would only do unless he was brainless, Smoker would not believe it.
Of course, it is not ruled out that he wants to reuse this group of pirates and earn more bounties from the navy, but first, Zoro is not the kind of person who is greedy for money, and secondly, Zoro has that kind of kung fu, it is better to find a pirate group to destroy it, and the money will come faster.
β¦β¦
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Heavy three-wheeled motorcycles roared through the streets of Rogue Town, a large amount of smoke spewting from the smoke pipes, and Billona, powered by Smoker's abilities, carried his master and his master's superiors towards the docks.
When the two arrived at the dock, which had just been severely damaged by the aftermath of the battle, they found that except for a bunch of naval soldiers arguing with the owner and maintaining order, the warships of the 16th branch base were still silent, and there were still no sailors outside in such a lively situation.
Fortunately, Smoker and Pheasant went on board to make a round, and found that all the prisoners were squatting in their cells, but the navy that was supposed to be on duty was all drunk and completely ignored the rules.
