Klockdahl raised his head slightly, looked at Townson, and then at Nicole Robin, who was standing behind Townson.

"The letter I received earlier—"

His voice was low, but surprisingly calm: "You wrote the letter signed 'Hades', right?" ”

"That's right." Tang Sen admitted calmly: "It's just to lure you over, but unfortunately, you chose to let the senior cadres of the Baroque Work Society stop the Straw Hats. It's a waste of these people to fold in such a place. ”

"Waste?" Klockdahl sneered: "It seems that you have taken the Baroque studio as your own property?" ”

"You can be MR.0, and so can I." Townsend gestured to Nicole Robin, who raised her hand in understanding, and her arm grew out of thin air on the ground, moving a chair behind Townsen.

Townsend sat down: "Mr. Klockdal, I appreciate your ability, the Baroque Workshop is running well in your hands, and has not only penetrated into all aspects of Alabastan, but also has many channels in the underground market of the Great Shipping Route. ”

"I need an organization that is so mature."

In response to Townsend's bold intention to occupy the magpie's nest, Klokdahl did not show an angry expression.

He knew his situation, and he also knew the rules of winning and losing, and since he had been reduced to a prisoner, the Baroque work club had naturally become the spoils of the other party.

He simply said: "The Baroque work societies are nothing more than tools used to achieve their ends." ”

"For me, it doesn't matter."

"I just want to know where you got the news about Hades."

Tang Sen chuckled: "One of the three ancient weapons, the legendary warship that can destroy an island with a single shot: Hades." ”

"In the hidden rumors of the underworld, everyone believes that the Hades is hidden somewhere in Alabastan, and the specific address is recorded in the historical text owned by the royal family of Alabastan."

Townsend was only lightly talking about the Immortal, and soon turned the conversation to Klockdahl himself.

"Is the reason why Mr. Crocodall wants to plot against Hades, is it because you haven't forgotten your dreams?"

A hint of mockery flicked across the corner of Klockdahl's mouth: "Why, would a person like you believe in such a thing as a dream?" ”

"Everyone has had dreams at one time or another." Townsend didn't mention himself, but said, "Mr. Crocokdal must have seen the Straw Hat Boy, although his strength seems insignificant to you, but his dreams are not small. ”

"He's the man who wants to be the king of the pirates."

Klockdahl's face was a little gloomy, and he said, "This ignorant newcomer—"

"Ignorance?" Townsend directly interrupted Crocodall's words: "When Mr. Crocodall is also a newcomer, this is also your dream. ”

Tang Sen said flatly: "It's just that your dreams have been cruelly crushed. ”

"When you are arrogant and want to challenge Edward Newgate the Whitebeard, you realize how difficult it is to stand on top of this world on your own, no, you are afraid that you are desperate at that time."

"You have lost faith in power, so you chose to leave the New World and come to the first half of the Great Voyage, and you want to make a comeback by other means - so you accepted the invitation of the Navy to become the Seven Martial Seas, and came to Alabastan to try to seize the country and plot against Hades."

"If the Hades King is really found by you, then your early operation and disguise will also have an effect, right? With the good image you have cultivated in the world government over the years, and the good reputation in Alabastan, you can build Alabastan into an isolated country, and then secretly research and develop troops to turn it into an 'ideal country' that belongs only to you and can fight the whole world. ”

Klockdahl didn't interrupt Townsen's tirade, and it wasn't until Townsend finished speaking that he sneered.

"Your intel is detailed."

"But if you think that such a clumsy humiliation of yours can break my sanity, you are very mistaken."

How could he not understand human nature if he was able to control such a large organization as the Baroque Workshop, and he could become the patron saint in the eyes of all the people in Alabastan as a pirate?

He has used too many methods to degrade others first, make others lose confidence and awareness of themselves, and then promise heavy profits.

"I know what you want, I did lose miserably at Whitebeard's hands, I'm convinced, but I never thought of joining the Whitebeard Pirates."

"What's more, you're—"

He scoffed, "It's just the one who took advantage of my weakness to defeat me." ”

"You can take my life as you like, and you won't get anything from me other than that."

"Tsk." Townsend laughed: "Mr. Klockdahl is worthy of being a sea thief, even if he is a prisoner of the stairs, he can still maintain such a spirit, I appreciate it." ”

"You misunderstood, what I just said was not humiliation, but praise."

"I like your 'Ideal Township' plan very much, not everyone in this world can find another way after failure, and not everyone can have your forbearance and strategy, but unfortunately, because of the limitations of the pattern, your 'Ideal Township' plan is doomed to failure."

"This world. It's far more complicated than you might think. ”

Townsend leaned back slightly, looking down at Crocodall.

"The so-called pirates, the so-called One Piece, in my opinion, is just a game like a housekeeper, and as the Seven Martial Seas, the target is placed in a projectile place like Alabastan, and no matter how much you struggle, you are just a pawn on the chessboard."

"Hehehehehe. Hahahaha! ”

Crocodall buried his head, his low laughter quickly turned into an irrepressible wild laugh, he stared at Townsen, and sarcastically said unrestrainedly: "You should use it to deceive the newcomer, maybe those naïve fools will believe this argument." ”

"I think I think the world is a chessboard, and if I am a little clever, I think I can become a chess player. I'm going to lose at the hands of someone like you. He spat out: "It's sad. ”

Tang Sen's face did not change, and said, "You misunderstood. ”

"My goal was never to be a so-called chess player."

"I'm going to overturn this chessboard."

Klockdahl had already bothered to pay attention to Townsen, for whom such a conversation was a waste of time.

Originally, although he was defeated, he at least recognized Tang Sen's methods and strategies, and he didn't really want to die, so he took the initiative to bring up this topic, provoking Tang Sen with words, trying to explore the other party's plans and conditions, if the other party's conditions were tempting enough, he was not unwilling to be with him.

But Klockdahl didn't expect that the other party would be such a fool.

Townsend saw what Crocodall was thinking, but he didn't explain it.

Words can never move a man like Klockdahl, only practical interests and a tangible and visible future have weight.

"It's too early to say that, Mr. Crocodall."

"Let's talk about something you'll be interested in," said Townson. ”

"For example, the Hailou Stone bullet in your body."
