Chapter 825: Truce to Open a Casino, Start a War to Buy Weapons (Two in One)

The troublesome pirates were easily defeated, and the battle footage was broadcast to various places on a large screen in the castle under the arrangement of Mr. Tanaka, the captain of the garrison.

Take a good look at the security forces of Guran Tezzolo in front of the guests who participated in the soft opening.

Some people were shocked by the guards' superb combat skills and did not dare to act rashly, while others did not think so and planned to look for another opportunity.

If you can't rob it openly, you can wait until the night to steal it.

Zhang Da also praised the fighting ability of these soldiers without hesitation, but Bakara didn't hear much sincerity, and he didn't see any shocked reactions from others.

Thinking about it, this is also normal, the other party is with BIGยท It is reasonable for the people who have fought with the MOM Pirates to look down on these soldiers.

I believe that after seeing Lord Tezzolo show his abilities, they will not be as plain as they are now.

"These villains will be punished as they deserve, so don't let them spoil the fun of playing, please keep visiting."

Baccarat continued driving: "Do you want to go shopping first, or do you want to gamble a few rounds?" โ€

"Let's go gamble a few games and earn some pocket money." Zhang Da also calculated, seeing that it was almost lunch time, he would earn the money for the meal first.

Baccarat naturally agreed, but instead of taking them to the most central casino, he found a building with a dice sculpture on the roof.

The game went unexpectedly well, and Baccarat showed no signs of making a move, just watching them play casually.

Her main focus was on the unlucky Artoria and the informative smile.

Both of them were aware of it, but neither of them broke.

At lunchtime, Baccarat took them to one of the most luxurious restaurants on the ship, where they witnessed the extraordinary amount of food eaten by the Amber Tours.

During the afternoon shopping, Baccarat only dutifully guided and explained, just like an ordinary tour guide.

Towards the evening, I took them to the hotel and arranged a large ultra-luxurious suite.

Zhang Da was also a little unsure of what Tezzolo meant, could it be that he specially sent Baccarat over just to give them face?

Or is she only in charge of observing and monitoring, and by the way preventing Artoria from going to the casino to make a lot of money on the stud?

In addition, it was said that they were important VIPs, but Tezzolo didn't even show his face?

With full of suspicions, Zhang Da and his companions also temporarily checked into the hotel.

But of course, night shifts are indispensable at night.

"I'm going to go to the biggest casino next, so please have a good rest." Yixiao left with the cash box as usual, and like the royal casino, the night is the most lively time in this golden city.

Of course, the others couldn't sleep peacefully, because Zhang Daye and the flag demon sent by Ye Yan had already sent back the news.

The Banner Demons found the captives from D'Erena in the distance where construction was underway, and according to their investigation, the captives had been sent to work here since they were captured.

It's not that the salary is completely absent, but after deducting the food expenses, all of them are used to 'pay off debts'.

As for how the debts came about, it is said that they were all ransomed from the Kingdom of Gambibo at great expense by Tezzolo, and that they were required to work until the debt was paid.

After hearing Mr. Tanaka's numbers tell them, many of the captives said that they did not know that they were worth so much money.

If you count the wages here, it will take them 10 to 20 years to pay off, and many of them have lost all their minds.

So Tezzolo gave them the opportunity to gamble once a month.

The amount of the bet is up to them, and if they win, double the amount will be deducted from the debt, and if there is any excess, it can be settled on the spot.

Many people believed Tezzolo's nonsense and gambled all their debts in one go, and as a result, their working years were greatly extended.

There are also some people who are more cautious and only bet a small amount of money, and as a result, they successfully shorten the working hours, but regret that they are too timid.

The weaker personality directly asked if he could refuse the gamble, and Tezzolo also agreed.

In short, these people stayed honestly for the time being, although the situation was slightly different, but they did not completely lose hope.

As long as you make enough money, you can leave, as long as you win the next bet, you can leave, maybe you can find a way to escape......

The captives had their own agendas, but none of them had managed to leave so far.

People who hope to win their bets occasionally win small wins, but most of the time they just add to their debt.

Those who tried to sneak away turned into golden statues and stood in front of the workers' dormitories as a warning.

Of course, it's not all D'Arena's captives working here, but also gamblers from the kingdom of Gambo.

They were sent here to work and wait for gambling after they were in debt.

These people said that they were workers, but they were treated a little better than slaves, as long as they worked hard, they would not be beaten, and they could eat enough every day.

- After all, Guran Tezzolo still has a lot of land to build.

The Banner Demons inquired about Ark from the captives of the Kingdom of D'Erena and learned that those who had recently been sent to the ship might be assigned to work in the shops.

It is also possible that he has been locked up for disobedience, and at worst, he has become a golden statue like those who tried to escape.

Then the next thing to do is to go to the major stores and have to continue to work hard to find Ark's whereabouts as soon as possible.

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

Tezzolo was busy today, too busy to receive the Amber Tours.

Although there were no Draco people visiting today, it also took a lot of his energy to receive various guests.

The first is to receive the two kings and mediate the contradictions between the two great powers of Hourglass Island, and the progress is not great.

Tezzolo is already thinking about supporting one side to completely conquer the other, anyway, if there is peace, he will open a casino, and if he starts a war, he will sell weapons, and he will make money no matter what.

It's just that there are some problems with the personalities and ideas of these two kings, one is unwilling to stop the war, but he doesn't want the other's land, and the other is not interested in the war and doesn't want to destroy the other once and for all.

This gave Tezzolo a headache, and he needed to think carefully about the method of persuasion or reverse persuasion.

The second is to receive dignitaries from various countries in the nearby seas, taking them to enjoy and gamble is just an appetizer, and when everyone is in high spirits, show off the arsenal, which is the main meal.

Take the opportunity of the soft opening to invite them over, in addition to making a name for yourself, you should also inform them:

Since the fall of Doflamingo, channels for obtaining weapons privately have been established.

If you want a weapon, come to him Tezzolo.

The dignitaries were stunned by Tezzolo's display of weapons, and although they did not place orders directly under the noses of officials from other countries, most of them quietly expressed their desire to talk to Tezzolo in private.

In addition to this, Tezzolo was personally required to receive officials from the World Government, as well as generals from the Navy.

Unbeknownst to many navies, a considerable part of the weapons they use to fight the pirates are purchased from Wano Country.

In other words, the world government has actually been purchasing weapons from Kaido through various channels.

If you think about it a little more, Kaido can still get out of the Navy Headquarters single-handedly every once in a while, maybe there are also factors in this regard.

Buying weapons from pirates is certainly not something that can be put on the surface, and the sporadic acquisition from the underworld is too inefficient and the price is unstable.

At this time, the appearance of Doflamingo provided them with a good idea, if only there was a broker in the underworld who was famous enough and legitimate.

Just like when Doflamingo was still around, even if it was discovered that the World Government was buying weapons from him, it would be no problem, because the Seven Martial Seas were his own people.

If something happens and someone finds out that the source of the weapon is Kaido, then the blame can also be put on Doflamingo, who used his position to deceive the world government and live up to the trust of the five old stars.

In fact, they did deal with it this way, but as soon as Doflamingo died, they needed to find a new intermediary.

At this time, the power gradually took off, and Tezzolo, who had deep financial resources, came into their eyes.

The original intention of the Five Old Stars was to make Tezzolo become the Seven Martial Seas, but Tezzolo really didn't look down on the broken position that was killed three times in two years.

He wanted greater power, so he did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to do activities to win over some Draconians to speak for him.

For the sake of Tezzolo's good ability and rich fortune, the Five Old Stars finally approved his request and let him establish a 'completely neutral country'.

As for whether the Wano Country side is willing...... Gold is also a hard currency in Wano Country, so who would have trouble with this kind of golden cutie?

Therefore, the government officials and the navy who came to participate in the soft opening today, Tezzolo also need to be well received.

The amount of the next order and the delivery time need to be carefully negotiated.

Perform on stage, preside over the opening process, receive guests from all walks of life, and have a dance party in the evening......

Tezzolo finally got a chance to rest after a busy day, and he leaned back in his golden chair and exhaled.

"Good work, Lord Tezzolo." Baccarat poured him a glass of champagne โ€“ Tezzolo loved the golden liquor.

"How's that going?"

"Nothing unusual, it looks like a normal tourist, just eating, drinking, and playing," Baccarat said. โ€

"In terms of gambling, most of them seem to be laymen, only the blind newcomer knows some gambling, and the watchman seems to know a little, and the others don't even know the usefulness of many gambling equipment."

"As for the swordsman who needs to pay special attention, it's really just a lot of luck, and when you participate in a game like dice roulette, you can win by buying indiscriminately."

Tezzolo drank the wine from his glass: "So, you should be sure that she will lose, right?" โ€

"She's very vigilant, and I'm afraid it's hard for me to touch her body." "If you want to win her, you need to absorb the luck of a lot of people." โ€

In this way, these people can be very troublesome opponents at the table, they have both the exaggerated luck that makes it difficult for the opponent to win without cheating, and the eye to see through the opponent's cheating......

As a result, it is very difficult to design them in a gambling way.

Unless...... The goal is to deceive those children.

Find a way to saddle them with huge debts that are difficult to repay?

Tezzolo thought for a moment and asked, "What about the other information?" โ€

"I didn't see them show their abilities, but the tour felt loose."

"Although nominally led by that Zhang Da, the one who is called laughing often acts without authorization, and when other people put forward any opinions, Zhang Da rarely opposes them......

Baccra thought maybe he could try to break them down, find an opportunity to dig into the corners or something.

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

In order to improve the efficiency of finding people, Zhang Da and the others chose to act separately.

When grouped, of course, each group has a guarantee of combat effectiveness, and the toddler phone bug is worn on the wrist at any time.

Zhang Da was also in a group with Tom, and went back along the avenue he came.

The first shop the two entered was a billiard hall.

There are not many customers inside, and basically there are staff at each table to serve individually, and even accompany the guests to play ball.

Zhang Da also glanced at it, black eight, nine balls, snooker, all kinds of rules.

Tom couldn't help himself when he saw the scene, and immediately rushed to a table and picked up the club.

The clerk didn't drive Tom away, but bowed politely to Zhang Daye: "Guest, what do you want to play?" Will your cat get hurt? โ€

Zhang Da also directly took out a few big tickets: "Just let him play casually, you can find someone to be his opponent." โ€

"Yes sir, just let me come." The clerk is not a little dissatisfied, and he can make money by playing with the cat, what a good thing.

However, as soon as he kicked off first, Tom immediately gave him a one-shot clearance.

If it was Tom teeing off, there would be no chance for him to play at all.

Zhang Da also waved his hand: "It's too vegetable, change someone." โ€

"Yes......" the clerk ran to call someone.

Tom continues to show the newcomers freestyle billiards, what to score six goals in one stroke, jumping balls, curling balls are all basic operations.

What is a little difficult is to hit the garage dozens of times back and forth to successfully score goals, and even hit the ball into a string and drive it into the hole like a train......

After Tom finished a game, he waved his hand to make the opponent substitution, holding the club, with an invincible expression.

Not only the clerks, but even the guests who came to play looked stupid, is this the god of billiards descending?

Someone recognized Tom and Zhang Daye, and immediately thought it was quite reasonable, the cat of the Amber Tour Group, what's wrong with being a little more powerful?

Zhang Da also took advantage of Tom's playing to observe all the clerks in the hall, and after confirming that there was no one he was looking for, he asked, "Are there any other clerks?" Let's change it again. โ€

"No, no, sir." The store manager wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, "All the clerks, including me, are no match for this Mr. Tom, and even the cleaners in the back have already played just now......"

In order to be safe, Zhang Da also turned on the domineering and electromagnetic radar to scan the entire billiard hall to confirm that there was really no one behind:

"Let's go, Tom, there's not a single one here who can fight."
