Chapter 4: The Bull Pirates
It was getting late, and as they got along, the village chief probably figured out the attitude of Estes and his party, and couldn't help but relax a lot.
This village is called Little Horn Village, and this island is called Little Horn Island.
It got its name because it was shaped like a horn.
The village is not big or small, and there are more than 100 households, mostly elderly and children.
There is only one village on the island, because there is a larger island not far from Little Horn Island, which has a slightly larger population and is the size of a town.
The village is also much more prosperous, so the young people of the village go there to find a job to make ends meet.
The village chief gathered several families and even killed his own chickens and ducks to prepare dinner for Estes and the others.
Inside the tavern, the appearance has changed dramatically.
Estes ordered a few people to clean up, and went to the neighbor's house to borrow a few tables and chairs.
Seleu put his hand into Xiao Ke's mouth, and under the shocked gaze of the village chief, he took out a few bottles of the empire's high-end wine.
In this way, the village chief, Estes, Will, and Doteja sat at the bar and chatted, while the rest chatted casually in the tavern, waiting for dinner.
"You're good people!"
"Was the village chief worried that we were pirates?"
Will asked.
"Yes and no, looking at what you are wearing, you can roughly see that you are different from the pirates, but the little girl over there said that she was lost, and that's what makes me suspicious.
But now that you think about it, what is there about you in our broken village? ”
"We are indeed lost, this is the sea area, do you have any ships and charts in your village that go to sea?"
Estes got straight to the point and asked directly.
"This is the North Sea, there are indeed ships going to sea, but they are all small boats, and we can't take so many people at one time, we in Xiaojiao Village go to Heard Island first, where there will be merchant ships to stop, and even shipyards, which are more suitable for long-distance travel."
Heard Island is the town island mentioned earlier.
The village chief replied honestly, though he wondered why Estes would ask such a question.
He has lived so long, he has spent his whole life in Xiaojiao Village, and he has dealt with many pirates.
He could see that Estes was not like pirates, but more like the navy.
But why does the Navy not know which sea area it is in, although he does not understand, he knows it and cannot ask.
"How far is Heard Island?"
"If it's a small boat in our village, it will take about a day to arrive."
Estes nodded, with a plan in mind.
"Peng!"
Suddenly, the door to the tavern was pushed open, and it was the teenager who had been talking to Ma Yin in the afternoon.
Suddenly, everyone in the room looked at him.
"Village... Village Chief, no... Oh no! ”
The boy was so nervous that he couldn't speak, but he didn't forget about himself.
"Abi, the distinguished guest is here, what do you look like in a panic!"
The village chief frowned and scolded, very dissatisfied with the appearance of this young man named Abi.
"Village... Chief, the pirates are coming! ”
"What!"
"Bang dang!"
The village chief fell to the ground with his buttocks, and he didn't have time to cry out for pain, so he immediately stood up.
"Hurry up, which pirate group is it?"
The village chief was on crutches and anxiously about to walk out of the tavern, as if the fall had no effect at all.
"I only saw the flag of a bull-headed skeleton, and now it should be ashore!"
"It's the Wild Bull Pirates, let's go, no!"
The village chief walked to the door, paused, and looked at the people in the tavern.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the pirates have suddenly arrived, please take refuge behind the village, and I will deal with the pirates leaving as soon as possible!"
The village chief has changed his previous submissive appearance, and has an indomitable momentum.
Estes' face did not change.
"Let's go check it out!"
"But..."
The village chief was a little hesitant, looking at the people in front of him, very entangled.
He has his own way of dealing with pirates, and this is how he allows Xiaojiao Village to survive in the North Sea, a sea infested with pirates.
Over the years, he has seen a lot of all kinds of pirates, and it is precisely because their village is poor that the pirates are too lazy to rob them.

But these people in front of them are different, obviously different from the costumes of the villagers, which will make these brutal pirates interested.
Once there is a dispute, then things will go in an uncontrollable direction.
"It's okay, village chief, we'll help you out of trouble!"
Will stepped forward and comforted.
"That's... All right! ”
The village chief knew that his dissuasion was useless, so he nodded helplessly.
At this time, he could already foresee a dispute occurring, and he could only pray that this group of guests was strong enough to solve this group of pirates.
Bull Head Skull Pirate Flag, if you are not mistaken, the captain is a sea thief known as a brute bull and has been rewarded with 30 million Bailey!
In Beihai, this is already a big deal!
The group followed the village chief to the head of the village, and most of the villagers had gathered at this time.
The arrival of the pirates has terrified the villagers, but the habits of the pirates are also familiar to everyone.
The more you hide, the more you escape.
Therefore, the village chief had already ordered that once a pirate arrived, he would go to the dock to meet him.
The villagers were also surprised when they looked at Estes and the others behind the village chief, but they didn't have time to think about it now, because the Brute Bull Pirate Ship had already landed.
"Moha!"
Before they could see anyone, a strange laugh reached everyone's ears.
A figure more than two meters tall was surrounded by torches, revealing its true face.
"Aha! Captain, look, this group of villagers has come out to greet you! ”
There was a burst of laughter from the group of pirates, as if they were showing off their might.
Estes and the others looked at the pirate captain named Manniu at the head, and frowned slightly.
Not for anything else, but mainly because of ugliness.
The wide upper body, the small legs, the face sticking out, a huge bull's nose occupies half of the face, and there are two weird horns on the head, the most conspicuous is the golden nose ring.
And the pirate soldiers on the side have a weird style, with long necks, long faces, missing arms and legs, hunched backs and tilted heads, and those who don't know think that it is an underground evil ghost.
"That's ugly, isn't it?"
Mayin's eyes widened in disbelief, she couldn't imagine that someone in the world would look like this!
In addition to being a little thinner, the villagers of Xiaojiao Village I saw in the afternoon were still in the category of normal people regardless of their limbs and facial features, but the group of pirates in front of them...
"This is a normal person?"
Ma Yin spoke up to the crowd.
"Moo?"
A cow barked, and the bull looked in the direction of Estes.
None of them, because Estes is too conspicuous.
I saw that the bull's eyes were full of love, and his breathing became heavier, and he was about to be unable to restrain himself.
"Seleuc! Kill it! ”
"Yes!"
I saw Seleuc leap to her feet, past the villagers, and she put her hands together, turning into a huge cannon barrel.
In the shocked gaze of everyone, a brilliant firelight illuminated the dark night sky.
"Ten Kings Verdict, No. 7, Justice Taishan Cannon!"
"Boom!"
The huge explosion shocked all the villagers, and the words that the village chief wanted to stop were stuck in his mouth, and he couldn't say it anyway.
This cute girl who doesn't look very old can turn into a cannon!!
Artillery fire roared, and huge smoke and dust escaped.
"Ahem... Moo~"
The sea breeze blew away the smoke and dust, leaving corpses all over the ground and the body of a giant bull.
The bull was lying on the ground, his body slightly undulating, and his body was covered with scorched marks from the shell.
"Huh? Turned into a cow? ”
Seleuc had an excited expression on his face, he didn't expect to meet the Devil Fruit ability in the intelligence on the first day.
"Seleuc, don't kill, hold him!"
Doteya on the side was also a little excited, looking at the three-meter-tall bull, she couldn't wait to dissect and study.
"Young!"
Seleuc responded, his speed surging, and he instantly approached the brute bull.
"No. 1, Justice Qin Guangqiu!"
Seleuc's right leg turned into an iron ball and slammed into the bull's abdomen.
"Moo!"
With a roar of the bull, the belly of the bull suddenly bulged, the iron ball was bounced away, and the bull was also hit by the huge force and flew backwards.
"No. 2, Hatsue Flying Body!"
Numerous small missiles popped up on either side of Serra's arm and flew towards the Brute.
"Boom!"
The missile is small, but powerful.
A series of explosions, like fireworks in the night sky, shone in everyone's eyes.
"Xiao Ke!"
"Chirp!"
Hearing the master's command, Xiao Ke became louder and jumped towards the motionless bull.
Today's Xiao Ke is about the same size as the original mad form, with a body size of five or six meters tall, like a little giant.
Xiao Ke picked up the bull and returned to the direction of the villagers.
Suddenly, the villagers moved out of the way, far away from the demonic form of Xiao Ke.
No one dared to speak.
"You... Who are you, Lao Tzu is a brute who has eaten the Devil Fruit, and a sea thief with a reward of 30 million! I won't let you go! ”
The bull is still conscious, and even maintains the form of the bull.
At this moment, Xiao Ke is carrying him as if he is carrying a little chicken.
The empire and others have already surrounded them curiously, after all, the barbarian people are very magical to listen to.
The villagers looked at Estes and the others in front of them in fear, this scene was too shocking, and the little girl who was a cannon and a hammer before was no different from ordinary people, and returned to the team.
It's hard to imagine that the girl with a bright smile was even more terrifying than the demon last moment.
"Expensive... Guest! ”
In the end, it was the village chief who stepped forward and interrupted Estes's onlookers.
"Well, village chief, you came just in time, I was still worried about the lack of ships, and now this brute bull didn't drive the boat over."
Estes looked at the big ship in the sea in the distance, and was quite satisfied.
Although Estes had already had the idea that if there was no boat, he would freeze the sea and walk over.
But now that there are ships, there is no need to be so conspicuous.
"Ahaha, yes... Oh, yes. ”
Hearing what Estes said, the village chief echoed with a wry smile, today is really exciting.
"In that case, we won't stay here any longer, and we'll leave tonight for Heard Island, and arrive just in time tomorrow day!"
Estes commanded to the crowd.
"Yes!"
In the end, despite the village chief's efforts, Estes and the others boarded the ship to Heard Island.
After removing the Pirate Flag, the pirate ship becomes a normal medium-sized sea ship.
There are about more than 100 people in the Wild Bull Pirates, except for the captain who is a wild bull who has eaten the Bull Fruit Bull Fruit, the others are some small minions.
Under the cannons of Seleuc's righteous Taishan, the whole army was annihilated.
The Brute, known as Denis, has reverted to his human form and is carried to Dotea's makeshift test bench.
After getting on the ship, a brief inspection was, and it is no exaggeration to say that only tens of thousands of Baileys and a wine cellar full of liquor were found.
"Bailey, it is the common currency of this world, and if you want to do anything after you arrive in Hurd Town, you will probably still be able to use it."
In the captain's room, Will is reminded of the world's monetary system.
"According to what Your Majesty said, the strength of the pirates in this world is linked to the bounty, and this barbarian has a bounty of 30 million Bailey, which can be regarded as a small strength in the North Sea, and it is simply speculated that with our current strength, there is no threat in this sea area."
"Don't forget to be domineering! The natural Devil Fruit in the Devil Fruit is said to be immune to physical attacks, and only domineering can deal damage, and we can't be sure that our attacks will work until we encounter someone with the ability of the Natural Devil Fruit. ”
"Domineering is a kind of human energy, I don't know if the energy generated by the breathing method can have the same effect!"
Will groaned.
The breathing method has become popular, and the advanced breathing method used by these generals is even more so.
"You can give it a try!"
Estes thought of the cowman!
"Wow!"
Pushing open the other door in the cabin, Doteya inside was bleeding the cow cowman.
The scalpel slashed a large wound directly on his arm.
"How?"
"The technology is not enough, and it seems that we will not be able to study it further until we are fully equipped."
Dotya shook her head, but with her current alchemy technique alone, she could probably see some clues, but it still needed to be verified.
"It's okay, so this guy is useless?"
Doteya nodded, it's really useless, you can't go anywhere and take it anywhere, and according to intelligence, there is no shortage of Devil Fruit abilities in this world, that is to say, the sea is full of experimental samples.
"Well, the main task now is to connect with our World Spirit Network and get in touch with His Majesty, and the rest can be talked about later."
Estes nodded.
"Since that's the case, I'll take it, this guy's head can still be exchanged for 30 million in the world's currency, I heard the village chief say that Hurd has a naval branch."
With that, Estes dragged the cowman, who was a cut taller than himself, to the deck.
As if sensing that fate was coming, Del had regained consciousness.
"Huh? Pretty fast? ”
Estes was also a little surprised to see that his freshly severed arm had begun to heal.
"Spare me, please, let me go!"
Estes dragged Del's horns and ignored his pleas for mercy, as if Will didn't see it.
"Moo! Moo! ”
Del's body in Estes' hands began to change.
Human-beast form! Brute Bulls!
But no matter how violently he struggled, the horns were clutched in Estes's hands, unable to move.
Del was like a writhing child, kicking his hands and feet on the deck, even though he was twice as big, but it was always useless.
"It's a pity, it's so ugly, I don't even have the idea of training."
Estes shook his head and threw it casually on the deck.
The iron heels of his heels stepped on Del's head and were deeply embedded in the flesh, condemning him to death.
