Chapter 44: I'm Your Opponent

The revelry goes on late into the night, but the funniest times will come to an end.

The next morning, the townspeople went out to clean up the rubbish on the streets, including food scraps, streamers, sequined papers, wine bottles, and even a few wallets. Everyone was chatting and laughing while waving brooms and diligently sorting the garbage.

The annual Charon Festival is also one of the most lucrative days in Tanar, which is a tourism-oriented island and its residents are very conscious of maintaining the cleanliness of the town.

This year's Charon Festival is rare without fires, thanks to the high-grade fireproof paper that the old mayor brought in from St. Poplar, the city of queens in the spring.

As soon as the morning dawned, tourists were already coming out of the hotel and stretching their waists towards their boats. It takes only 20 hours to store the pointer in Tanar, which is very convenient compared to the islands that can take months at a time.

Suddenly, a bell rang out over the town. The tourists stopped in confusion, while the townspeople changed their faces.

"Yes, it's a pirate! The pirates are coming! A male resident threw down his broom and ran towards his home. The other residents also woke up from their dreams and hurried towards their homes. There were also brave men with shovels and brooms rushing towards the docks, and they wanted to defend their homes.

Tourists looked panicked. Yes, no amount of festive vibes can change this goddamn era of pirates.

Most tourists in this era traveled on fixed routes by taking tourist boats, which often hired strong escorts. Tourists on the streets flock to the captain of their tour boat in search of refuge from the ship's escort.

The central street is becoming more noisy and chaotic, and a window on the third floor of a three-story inn next to 'Bee Superman' is slammed open with a click.

Victor, wearing a fluffy nighthat and spotted pajamas, stood in front of the window with a gloomy gaze. He looked out at the harbor in the distance and was silent for a long time.

Yes, he has severe hypotensive type of wake-up gas.

…… No matter where you come from, die! Decide! Finish!

Enraged, Victor grabbed his slippers and ran to the locker and began to change clothes quickly.

At the same time, a huge pirate ship is moored not far from the port, and many ships on the dock have been hijacked by pirates, looting valuable items inside.

It was not without guards on these ships who wanted to resist, but without exception, they were beaten half to death by the best of these pirates and hung upside down from the masts of their own ships as punishment.

On the dock, a large number of tourists were controlled by the pirates, and a red-haired man in a dark coat was waving a big wrench in his hand, shouting and threatening the trembling tourists: "Everyone, if you don't want to die, hurry up and hand over the valuable things!" We're the famous 'Mechanic Pirates'! That's right, it's the 'Mechanic Pirates' with a total bounty of 240 million! ”

The captains of some tourist ships had weak legs, sat down directly on the ground, and muttered in their mouths: "Mechanic, mechanic pirates...... It's over, it's all over......"

Most of the guards who stayed on the shore also shook their heads and gave up resistance, of course they had heard of the name of the 'Mechanic Pirates', not to mention the brutal pirate captain, they couldn't even beat the cadres of the pirates, so it was better to give up early.

Kick, kick, kick......

There was a sound of heavy footsteps, and two tall figures appeared on the dock.

At the head of the group was a large man at least 4 meters tall, with curly brown hair braided into dirty braids, a thick beard coiled around his chin like a mess of wires, black hard-toed work boots on his feet, and a dirty beige coat decorated with slowly turning steel gears.

He was flanked by a well-proportioned young man with blond hair, about 25 years of age. The eyes of the yin owl did not seem to have the slightest warmth, and he was dressed in a decent black coat and carried a gorgeous musket at his waist.

A somewhat knowledgeable guard swallowed and took a few steps back.

The big man's indifferent eyes were aimed at the guard, he stretched out his hand to him, and said slowly in an unusually low voice, "You, let's introduce our 'Mechanic Pirates' to these little cuties." lest someone have a hot head and act irrationally. ”

The guard shuddered and stumbled, "The Mechanic Sea, the Pirates, the total bounty is 240 million berry." Captain 'Black Cog' Giger, with a bounty of 150 million Berry, Chief of Staff 'Arc Gun' Bill, with a bounty of 90 million Berry......"

The red-haired man standing next to him shouted dissatisfiedly, "Captain! Why don't I have a bounty? Am I not killing enough people!? ”

'Black Gear' Jig slowly turned the gear-shaped thick ring on his knuckles and let out a low sneer: "Hehe...... You're right, Donnie. It is because we were too merciful in the past that we let the Navy look down on us! Bill, is this town right? ”

The 'Arc Gun' Bill beside him nodded indifferently: "That's right, Tanar Town, yesterday was the town's traditional festival 'Charon Festival', and every year when it comes to this festival, it attracts a large number of tourists. We're going to make a lot of money this time, Captain. ”

Gig opened his arms and shouted, "Little ones, go and loot this town!" Snatch everything of value! If there is a woman you like, you can dispose of it on the spot! Those who dare to resist will be killed!! ”

Some of the pirates who received the order screamed and rushed at the shivering tourists with their wrenches, and many more rushed to the circular arch at the end of the pier, which led to the central street. It was clear that they had carefully studied the town of Tanar before they came.

"Report! There's a strange ship here! I can't get in! There was a discordant sound from the dock.

'Arc Gun' Bill frowned and walked briskly. When I got closer, I realized that this was indeed a strange ship.

The dark blue hull is emblazoned with the word 'CORAL' on the outside, and the deck is covered by a domed resin dome that leaves no gaps. The strangest thing is that even the winged Victory Statue, which is the bow of the ship, is dressed in resin pajamas, and the statue even wears a resin nightcap crooked on top of its head.

Whose boat is so willful...... 'arc gun' Bill felt that he couldn't hold up the appearance of this cold-faced cool brother, and put his hand in his trouser pocket and pinched his thigh twice before stabilizing his expression.

"Pretending to be a ghost...... Go and bring the cannons and sink this ship for me! Bill turned in annoyance and instructed his pirates.

The two men were just about to reply, when suddenly a joking voice sounded clearly in the ears of everyone on the dock.

"Oh? You want to sink my ship? Then I'll also 'exchange courtesies'...... Metal zipper steel chain fingers (STICKY FINGERS)! ”

A golden streamer that flew from far to near appeared in the eyes of everyone on the dock, and in just an instant, the huge pirate ship that the 'Mechanic Pirates' was proud of not far from the dock was directly split in half by this golden chain blade! Even the sea water has been drawn out of a deep ditch!

'Black Gear' Giger looked at the wreckage of the pirate ship slowly sinking on the sea in the distance, and muttered, "Lao Tzu's 'Brutal Justice'............ Who is it? Who dares to hurt Lao Tzu's 'Brutal Justice'!! ’”

There was a scream from the circular arch at the end of the pier, and a few pirates covered in blood staggered towards the dock, only to be slashed to the ground by a few crisp flying slashes.

Several figures appear at the arch.

Victor was dressed in a delicate black suit, and his outstretched right index finger hooked, and the terrifying chain blade that shocked everyone quickly retracted to his fingertips. Perona, Mai Honghime, and Robin followed behind him, and those flying slashes just now were Mai Honghime's masterpiece. The gray-haired, blood-stained mayor followed behind tremblingly, looking at Victor with excitement.

Victor looked coldly at the stunned pirates on the dock and said word by word:

"From now on, the town is covered with 'coral'. Want to fight? Yes, I'll be your opponent! ”
