In the bounty hunter hall, Scarface Barton listened to Qin Jing's words, and immediately widened his eyes bigger than the brass bell, and grinned in a terrifying face, with the blood stains on several of his teeth, completely like a murderer.

"Jones, let's call the police!" shouted the cutie immediately.

Hearing Little Lori shouting again, Barton immediately lowered his face, and aggrievedly pulled out a professional brand from his pocket:

"Hey, hey, little girl, I'm a bounty hunter!

"Jones, what is a bounty hunter?" asked in a low voice, as he immediately shrank his head in fear.

"The pirate hunter. ”

In reply, Yorkham Jones smiled at Barton and nodded, and walked over to the old man with the mustache:

"Sir, please get me a bounty hunter's license too. ”

"Name, another 10 Wall. The old man with the mustache was very skillful, and at once he took out a bunch of signs and knocked on the table.

"Yorkham Jones. Smiling back, Yorkham Jones handed over 10 Wall.

"Real name?" wrote twice, and the bearded old man frowned.

"Of course, I don't like to use a pseudonym. Yorkham Jones nodded at once, and gave a very sincere and kind gaze.

Next to him, Barton was smiling at the grimace, as if he wanted to change his image in the eyes of little Lori.

It's a pity that the scar on his face is very terrifying, and his smile is even more terrifying than a ghost, and the little cutie Jingjing only glanced at it twice, and then buried his little face directly in Yorkham Jones's arms.

At this point, after hearing Yorkham Jones's answer, Barton looked up and said:

"I advise you to change your name, bounty hunters are very dangerous, not only are we hunting pirates, but pirates are also hunting us..."

"That's great, so I don't have to go out and look for it, I just have to wait at home to collect the money. Yorkham Jones replied with a squint.

"I'm afraid it's not money that's waiting for you, it's death. ”

After commenting, Barton added:

"I've seen a lot of newcomers like you, and everyone thinks they're the protagonists, and they all think they're going to break through!"

"But the world is not as simple as you think, and pirates are not as simple as you think! I advise you to give up this idea, I don't want to hear a lovely little girl crouching in the harbor crying in a few days. ”

"Why should I cry!" Qin Jing glared at immediately.

"Your father is dead, and you have to cry. The old man with the mustache next to him teased, walked to the left wall, and tore out a photo.

"Jones is super powerful! he won't die!" little Lori immediately yelled back.

The bearded old man didn't answer, and after taking back the photo, he compared it with the bloody head on the table a few times, and then nodded to Barton:

"It's indeed 'Sharp Knife', his bounty used to be 800 Wall, but because he is about to have a title, it has recently increased by 400, a total of 1200 Wall, Barton, give me your bank card. ”

"What is a title?" asked Yorkham Jones softly.

Barton thought for a few seconds, and while handing the bank card to the bearded old man, he replied:

"In the navy it is a military rank, in the pirates it is a representative of strength, and the military rank is divided into six ranks, namely: major, lieutenant colonel, colonel, general, king, emperor. ”

As he spoke, Barton took another deep breath:

"Even a pirate with the title of major can easily destroy a naval warship as long as he is put on board!"

"Every pirate with a title has magical abilities, and I once watched a battle!"

"That man's name is 'Immortal Major' Roland! Cannonballs can't kill him at all, his body can be restored even if it is torn apart, I watched him kill more than a hundred navies by himself!"

"Then why are you still alive?" asked Yorkham Jones, slightly surprised.

"Probably the protection of the Wind Elves. As he replied, Barton raised his hand lightly and made a trajectory like the wind, as if it were some kind of prayer gesture.

Qin Jing was muttering '1200 Wall' at the moment, and after reading it a few times, she looked at the bearded old man with a smiling face:

"Grandpa, is the number on every picture on the wall the number of Wall?"

"Well, yes. ”

The bearded old man replied, and handed Patton his bank card:

"Barton, the brother of the Sharp Knife, the Rubber Man, is stronger than him, you'd better not go to sea lately, I don't want to see your corpse return in the sea breeze one morning. ”

"Don't worry, I've recently bought something new, so I really hope he finds me. ”

Barton laughed twice, put his bank card away, and looked at Yorkham Jones:

"Newcomer, you'd better use a pseudonym and buy a leather mask at the underground market, otherwise, you will never have peace!"

"Of course, if you're going to spend your whole life adrift at sea, you're free. ”

Then Barton shook his body and walked towards the door, but after a few steps, he turned back:

"I'll be in Whale Harbor for a week, and if you have any questions, you can come to me at the 'Storm Rose' bar, where I'll be drinking for a week. ”

Watching Barton walk downstairs, Yorkham Jones sighed:

"Mr. Barton is such a warm-hearted man. ”

"That's because he's experienced loss. ”

The bearded old man sighed and said:

"Remember the story he told earlier, the story of Roland, the 'Immortal Major'. ”

"Is there another story hidden in there?" said Yorkham Jones nodded.

"You're smart. ”

The mustache nodded, and fell into a long silence, as if the memory had returned to the past:

"Ha, the sea breeze was so gentle at that time..."

Shaking and wrinkling and laughing, the mustachioed old man said:

"Five years ago, Barton wasn't alone, he had a squad of bounty hunters, and there were newcomers in it, and while the newcomers were similar to you, they were all young, only about 19 years old..."

Please don't complain that I'm old, why do people like to say I'm old every time I meet...

The corners of Yorkham's mouth twitched, and he continued to listen.

"Once, their team was hired by the Navy to go to sea, and then they met Roland, the 'Undead Major'! He survived because his team protected him with their lives, not some wind elf to protect him. ”

"After that incident, he took off his mask and assumed his real name... Since then, he has not intended to live on land..."

After a few sighs, the bearded old man whispered again:

"He hasn't told anyone else this story, so don't let it go. ”

"Then why are you telling me?" asked Yorkham Jones with a slight smile.

"Intuition. ”

The bearded old man replied as he wrote the name of Yorkham Jones on his professional license plate, and added:

"I think you can bring peace to Barton, because with his ability, he will not be able to take revenge in this life..."

At this time, the little cutie suddenly pointed to the wall in the center of the hall and turned the decibels to the maximum:

"Jones! That's a lot of money! That's a lot of zeros! Let's go hunt them down!"

At this point, all the bounty hunters around looked at him and burst into laughter.

And the bearded old man, he almost fell on the spot.

"That's not a lot of zeros, that's 100 million. ”

The bearded old man glared, and also turned his head to look at the four huge portraits on the wall.

After a few seconds, countless emotions appeared on the bearded old man's face, the most of which was excitement:

"That's the Four Emperors of the Ocean! the legends of the ocean, they're mysterious, they're legends, they're as awe-inspiring as gods, they've got countless followers, they've got endless stories..."

"And I grew up reading their stories! If it weren't for my age, I would have gone to the ocean to find them and follow them!"

"Old man Mark, pay attention to your image, you are a bounty hunter. A tall woman walked up, put down her head, and took 500 wales.

After dealing with the new bounty, Old Man Mark smoothed his mustache with his hand, and then pointed to the first portrait.

The portrait is glittering with gold, countless treasures and money are piled up almost all over the ocean, a huge ship made of pure gold sails on the sea of jewels, and a man dressed in a king's costume is sitting leisurely on the deck.

"That's the 'Treasure Emperor', his ship is called the 'King', and in the most mysterious legends, he has a magical compass that always points to treasures and traps!"

"But the 'Treasure Emperor' has never stepped on a trap, so he has endless treasures!"

Then Old Mark pointed to the second one.

The second portrait is black, with ghosts and skeletons as the subject of the portrait, and there is no sea in it, just a gray world.

"This is the 'Immortal Emperor', and his ship is called the 'Ghost'! Legend has it that he sailed in the afterlife, and his crew was full of dead ghosts, because of this legend, many people jumped into the sea every day to kill themselves in order to follow him!"

After a long series of words, Mark took a deep breath, licked his chapped lips, and pointed to the third.

The third portrait is more normal, with a blue sea, a soft sea breeze, a white sailboat sailing on the sea, and a thirty-year-old bearded man with a straw hat standing at the bow of the boat, his eyes always looking into the distance, and revealing infinite longing and reverie.

"This is my idol 'Straw Hat Emperor'! He is the only Sea Emperor who appears regularly at the moment, and his ship is called 'Voyager', and he is just like his name, he stops in a different bay every day, and then travels in this world all the time..."

As he spoke, Mark became excited:

"I have seen him with my own eyes, and seven years ago, in Whale Harbor, I will never forget his eyes, even if it was only a thousandth of a second of eye contact, and I saw my adventurous spirit in it, and I saw my dreams. ”

"Ahem, Mr. Mark, you're a bounty hunter. Looking at Old Mark, who was getting more and more excited, Yorkham Jones couldn't help but cough lightly.

"I was almost chosen by the Straw Hat Emperor, and if it weren't for my bad luck, I might have been a sailor on the Voyager!"

“......”

Old Man Mark was so immersed in his passions and dreams that he couldn't remember that he was a bounty hunter.

After nearly 10 minutes of remembrance, Old Mark pointed to the fourth portrait.

It was a misty pattern, looking like a light veil, with no ships on it, just a veiled woman, who looked very elegant in off-white leather pants and wheat-colored leather shoes.

"This is the 'Mysterious Empress', she is like the legendary title she has, she is incomparably ancient, incomparably mysterious, no one knows where she came from, no one knows where she is, she is like an old legend, no one has ever seen her except the stories that have been handed down. ”

"Her ship is called the Graceful Prophet, and it is rumored that she knows all the secrets of the sea, that her eyes can see through the future of all, and that she is always in the fog pointing out the lost crew of life..."

"She is the most mysterious woman, she is the object of every man's illusion at sea..."

Seeing that Old Man Mark was immersed in his own illusion again, Yorkham Jones shook his head:

"Thank you, Mr. Mark, for your wonderful story, and we'll see you next time. ”

With that, Yorkham Jones walked to the door with the basket in his arms.

Going down to the first floor, Qinqing, who repeated the words "100 million wales", finally came back to her senses, and she excitedly tugged at Yorkham Jones's clothes:

"Jones! Let's go hunt the Four Emperors of the Ocean! One person is 100 million, and four people are 400 million Wales! Wow, wow, wow! How much is this!"

As he spoke, Jingqing knocked on Yomi, who was sleeping on Yorkham Jones' shoulder:

"How much is 100 million?"

"Respect the teacher, understand?"

Yumi yawned and glared:

"What's the biggest number you know?"

"10,000!" Qin Jing replied immediately.

"If 100 million is 100 million, it is 10,000 10,000. Yumi immediately gave an answer, then squinted her eyes and went back to sleep.

"Wow, wow, wow, so much, so much!"

The cutie was already incoherent, and pulled Yorkham Jones, who didn't answer:

"Jones, you say, with all this money, are we the richest people?"

"I want to eat it!"

Yorkham Jones immediately flicked the excited cutie and poured a basin of cold water:

"Don't talk about hunting, others can crush us into powder with a single thought, do you know what level the Four Emperors of the Ocean are?"

"What level? If we can't win, we can call someone! Call Daile, Lux, and Miss Red Lotus! Even if it's a bunch of people, it's still a lot of money!"

"I'm afraid not, if you want to hunt the Four Emperors of the Sea, you have to call your idol 'Bright Saintess'. Yorkham Jones shook his head, ignored his muttering, and walked straight up the street.

...

In the Bounty Hunters Hall, after Yorkham Jones left, a short figure in a robe and hood suddenly walked out of the inner room.

"Mark, show me the bounty hunter you just registered. Under the hood, a crisp boy's voice came out.

"Yes, sir!" said Mark, with a respectful salute, handing the register to the dwarf figure.

Taking the register, the diminutive figure drew a small circle with his finger on the words 'Yorkham Jones', and then a flash of golden light appeared on the handwriting.

"Holy priest... Could it be the new crew of the Holy Angel, but why did he come to the Bounty Hall..."

muttering inwardly, the short figure handed back the register:

"Mark, it's okay, pay you back. ”
