Chapter 187: A Little Turmoil
"Wait!"
The heavyweight intelligence came a little suddenly.
Lindsay fetches a bag of popcorn from the mermaid waiter at the bar and sits down next to the table.
Munching on popcorn, he motioned with interest, "You continue." β
Pirate Captain: "......"
He is also a veteran pirate who can "survive" in the new world, and knows how to judge the situation.
Therefore, he could clearly feel the obvious difference in the aura of the two fishmen in front of him.
The first fish-man to appear, the one who was relatively gloomy, and although it exuded a dangerous aura, it was no different from the powerhouses of the New World.
The reason why he appeared was indeed to "negotiate a deal", at most he was impatient, so he added some threats.
This kind of person is tricky, but not impossible to deal with.
But the second fish-man who appeared, the one who chewed popcorn, made the pirate captain can't help but be vigilant.
The face is giggling, but it reveals a chaotic atmosphere all the time!
Unpredictable, unpredictable.
This kind of person is incomprehensible, and even independent of "logic", and cannot be judged by common sense!
There is such a tricky fish-man?!
In any case, the pirate captain had no intention of testing the opponent's strength, and only wanted to get out of this trouble as soon as possible.
"Ah, you should have read the latest newspapers, too."
The pirate captain pretended to be calm and said in a deep voice:
"[Demon] made a big fuss in the capital of the seven waters, overturning the entire capital of the seven waters."
"I heard that in the end, even the three admirals took action, forcing the [Demon] to jump into the sea, and the [Demon] gang was completely wiped out."
"But have you ever thought about why the [Demon] who slaughtered the Celestial Dragons would make a fuss in the Capital of the Seven Waters?"
"It is said to be for the mysterious 'treasure'!"
The pirate captain nodded to the table.
"And after the [Demon] gang jumped into the sea, the situation on the sea suddenly changed."
"The navy has begun to move, and the heroes of the New World have moved, and they all seem to be looking for something at the same time."
"My companions and I felt that the situation was not right, so we took the risk of breaking through the naval blockade, intending to return to the first half of the storm for a while."
"βthat's all I know."
ββ¦β¦β
After listening to the pirate captain's explanation, Lindsay and Klockdahl looked at each other.
At this moment, Uta sang a small note, which floated into the ears of the two of them, and exploded with a "pop".
The pirate captain wasn't lying.
So Lindsey and Crocok Dahl got up to say goodbye and returned to a secluded corner to join Robin.
"So ......"
Lindsay opened her mouth, poured all the remaining popcorn into her mouth, turned her head and asked, "What kind of treasure is it?" β
Klokdahl's brow furrowed, and he speculated, "Is it the blueprint of the Immortal?" β
Lindsay shook his head, "There's no reason for the Navy to leak the information of the Hades design, it's not the command style of the Warring States. β
"Maybe the 'order' of things is the opposite?"
Robin suddenly interjected and said slowly: "It was a certain Four Emperors who started to act first, so that the navy was forced to step up its guards?" β
"Not necessarily."
Klockdahl said gloomily: "It is difficult for the navy to be passive, and the four emperors are not reckless people. β
After thinking for a moment, Lindsay opened her mouth and grinned, "Is it possible that the 'treasure' thing is true?" β
"Huh?"
As soon as these words came out, Klockdahl and Robin were stunned.
It's really a very "Evan Lindsay-style" statement, and it doesn't sound logical just by sounding like it.
Is there really a treasure?
How could they, as the parties concerned, not know?
"Let's assume that 'there really is a treasure,' and many things can be explained."
Lindsay spread her hands and said:
"In search of that so-called 'treasure', the World Government ordered the Navy to go into action."
"And a certain Four Emperors of the New World knew this, so he made a move at the same time."
"The two sides are wrestling with each other."
ββ¦β¦β
Hearing this, everyone fell silent for a while.
From a logical point of view alone, there is indeed nothing wrong with Evan Lindsay's speculation.
But this is the most problematic point!
Because the few people present knew very well that there was no "[Demon's] treasure" at all!
Since it is a rumor, what exactly are the "Navy" and "a certain Four Emperors" looking for?
Why is Lindsay's seemingly impossible analysis so plausible?
What kind of "follow-up" did the incident of the capital of seven waters derive?
ββ¦β¦β
Klockdahl and Robin's brows furrowed, and they continued to think.
Lindsey asked for a second popcorn.
"Squeak squeak squeak......"
ββ¦β¦β
"Squeak squeak squeak......"
ββ¦β¦β
On Klocodahl's forehead, a few bruised tendons erupted.
But before he could attack, a sudden change in the outside world appeared!
Swish!
A smoke grenade rolled into the mermaid cafΓ© and exploded with a thud.
Whew......
The smoke was thick, and the mermaid waiters in the cafΓ© were in a panic for a while.
"Yikes!"
"What's that?"
"Be careful!"
ββ¦β¦β
The store was suddenly chaotic, and several figures scurried back and forth among them.
One of the shadows came to the cafΓ©'s stage, grabbed Uta, and dragged her out of the store.
"Hey, hey, got it......"
The man let out a wicked laugh and beckoned around, "Little ones, withdraw!" β
Swish!
With that, several black shadows rushed out of the smoke and came to the outside of the store.
And in the smoke that had not yet dissipated, Klockdahl took the lead and swept away as a sandstorm.
Lindsey grabbed Robin, and the ancient sight spread, and rushed out of the store with her along the trail.
On the way, he also met the pirate captain.
When he saw Lindsay's face, he immediately raised his hands and surrendered: "It wasn't us who did it, it's probably a slave trader who doesn't want to die!" β
"Thank you."
Lindsay gently patted the other man on the shoulder.
β¦β¦
Inside the mermaid cafΓ©, there is smoke and dust.
Swish!
Swish! Swish!
Slave traders, numbering about a dozen, rushed out of the smoke and dust with Uta and ran wildly.
Klocodahl followed.
Lindsey grabbed Robin, laughed and jumped to her feet, jumping right in front of the slave traders.
He and Klockdahl went one after the other, completely blocking the way of this group of slave traders!
"Ha ......"
The leading slave trader laughed strangely, handed Uta to the younger brother on the side, and sneered:
"The high-priced mermaid that I finally got my hands on, how could I give up so easily!"
"You fishmen, don't think you can beat us, we are very strong!"
"Even in the New World, we're famousβ"
β¦β¦
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!"
More than a dozen slave traders knelt on the ground in rows, all with blue noses and swollen faces, and wept bitterly in repentance.
"We're really just ghosts, please leave us alone!"
ββ¦β¦β
"I refuse!"
Rumble!
As soon as he finished speaking, Uta picked up a huge eighth note and hammered the leading slaver into the ground.
Uta's face was full of unhappiness, and he pouted: "The concert has been interrupted!" β
"Hoo ......"
Klockdahl exhaled white smoke and grabbed the neck of the second-in-command.
"Hehehehe, it's the first time I've met someone who is so not afraid of death."
"Fish-Man Island is Whitebeard's territory, and you dare to touch it?"
ββ¦β¦β
The second-in-command struggled and said tremblingly: "Yes, it's because of the recent big moves in the navy and the turmoil in the new world that we want to come and look for opportunities......
"Oh?"
Klockdahl raised an eyebrow, only to find the situation at sea more and more interesting.
On Lindsay's side, because the two little girls hated the slave traders so much, they simply punched one and embedded them in the ground.
In a short time, a group of guards trotted in the distance.
That was the Dragon Palace Castle guard of the Dragon Palace Kingdom, and it was also the main guard force of Fish-Man Island.
The captain at the head came to everyone and was shocked when he saw the slave traders on the ground with blue noses and swollen faces.
"You ...... You're puffer fish people, aren't you? β
The appearance of a pig's head is no longer recognizable as a human being.
So the captain turned to Lindsay and the others in disguise, as if facing a great enemy:
"You actually made trouble on Fish-Man Island, and beat your fellow clan like this, are you gangsters in Fish-Man Street? Or outlaws from somewhere else?! β
Four: "......"
They looked at each other and were speechless.
Lindsay, Robin, and Uta shrugged their shoulders at each other, realizing the misunderstanding.
Only Klockdahl seems to have not felt this way for a long time to be regarded as a dangerous person, and he misses it a little.
He unleashed his fruit ability, sucking the second-in-command into a dry corpse, and then kicked it away.
"Ah, we're the 'villains.'"
Lockdahl took a cigar in his mouth, approached the captain of the guard, and said sullenly and defiantly:
"What can you do to arrest me?"
β¦β¦
Click!
Four "villains" were shackled.
The captain gave an order and said, "Escort this group of outlaws back to Dragon Palace City!" β
Klockdahl: "......"
Klocodahl: "? β
