Pirate: As long as you talk tough, you won’t be beaten to death

After a brief introduction, both parties became acquainted.

The man's name is Song. He is an aborigine of Pineapple Island and lives with his only daughter.

Their lives are not rich, but plain and fulfilling.

But just now, the peaceful day was broken by the arrival of a slave-catching fleet.

There are about 100 people who have landed on the island, but each one is outnumbered by one to a hundred. Pineapple Island is just an ordinary small island, and the largest number of people on the island are ordinary civilians and merchant ships.

There are a small number of guards on the merchant ship, but these people are no match for the Celestial Dragon slave-catching fleet, and one of ten cannot survive a single attack.

So those who could afford it fled in boats.

Although the slave fleet's thugs were powerful, they could not capture all the tens of thousands of people.

Most of the people fled, a small number of people were beaten to death, and the last group of people were gathered in the Fountain Square in the center of the town.

Song asks Lucid and Law to help save his daughter.

"How do you know your daughter is not dead?" Lucid asked.

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room instantly became weird.

Song and Luo stared directly at Lucid.

Lucid: "..."

He immediately changed the subject, "Do you have a photo of your daughter?"

"You agreed? This is a photo of my daughter." Song took out a group photo from the cabinet. There was a boy and a girl on it. The man was naturally Song himself, and the girl was his daughter.

He looks about fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing an autumn suit, and looks very cute.

"We can try to save people, but we may not be able to save them."

Lucid put away the group photo.

When Luo heard this, he immediately turned around and planned to walk out.

But he took two steps and found Lucid standing there without moving.

"What's wrong?" Luo asked.

Lucid did not answer, but continued to look at Song and asked, "Then what reward are you going to give us? There is no free lunch in the world, not to mention that we have spent a lot of energy to save you, and now we have to Risk your life to save your daughter.”

"According to what you said, that group of people killed many merchant ship guards."

As soon as these words came out, the originally harmonious atmosphere in the room suddenly became weird.

Luo frowned, wanting to say something but not knowing how.

When Lucid didn't say it, he didn't feel it yet.

But after Lucid opened the skylight and spoke frankly, Luo instantly felt that the impression of the pine tree in front of him had dropped by more than one level.

In terms of age, he is even two years younger than the other party's daughter.

The other party has been complaining since he rescued them, and even asked them to save people from the hands of those villains.

Thinking of this, Luo couldn't help but feel disgust in his heart.

"But I don't have anything valuable..." Song said with a pale face. He didn't know whether it was because Lucid asked for payment, or because he was too seriously injured and lost too much blood.

"Well, then there's nothing I can do to help."

Lucid spread his hands.

He prefers to be a tycoon than a hero.

Exchange of equivalent benefits is possible.

Want to prostitute him for free?

There are no doors.

There was a flash of struggle in Song's eyes, and then he stood up with difficulty and pushed open the bedside table. There was a simple hidden compartment behind the bedside table.

The secret compartment opened, and just when Song was about to put his hand in, Lucid stopped him.

"Luo, take out the things. Do you, a doctor, know how to take care of patients?"

Luo: "???"

Mr. Luo felt that Lucid's words were a bit strange, but he couldn't understand it for a while, so he took out a wooden box from the hidden compartment as Lucid requested.

Lucid looked at the wooden box for a while.

It's very small and thin, and it doesn't look like a box containing a devil fruit.

Lucid asked, "What is this?"

"A treasure map, I don't know what it is exactly. My grandfather went to sea to find it. He kept it hidden in a secret room after he came back." Song replied.

Song saw that Lucid and Luo didn't speak, thinking that they were not satisfied with the reward.

He quickly added, "I only have this thing. Although I'm not sure of the value, my grandfather lost an arm and a leg for this thing. It must be a big treasure."

"Okay, let this be considered as reward for rescuing you. As for your daughter, we will try to save her."

Lucid never makes a promise that is not 100% complete.

Song lowered his head, his face full of worry.

Upon seeing this, Lucid took Luo and walked to the center of Fountain Square.

……

On the way, Luo followed silently without speaking.

Lucid asked without looking back, "Do you think I went too far?"

"No." Luo shook his head. Even if he really thought so, he couldn't say it out loud. He was not a creature with low emotional intelligence.

"Even if you think I've gone too far, I won't change it."

Lucid said something and walked forward.

Luo: "..."

Although it was just two short sentences, the atmosphere between the two became much better.

Lucid's words didn't sound pleasant, but they were true to his heart.

This is how mutual trust is built up.

The relationship between Lucid and Luo is far inferior to that between him and Monet and Sugar. They need to establish a trusting relationship. Lucid knows that Luo is not a pedantic guy. Luo has experienced the cruelty of the sea and is not the kind of petty person in an ivory tower. Damn boy.

The two quickly sneaked into the vicinity of Fountain Square.

A large number of bloody corpses lay on top of the fountain square. The blood spread along the road, dyeing most of the square red.

There are probably more than 2000 young men and women left, escorted by thugs with guns, lining up to move towards the port.

"Are these guys from the World Government?"

Lucid looked at the guys with black wings, black pants and black shoes in the crowd with some surprise.

Very few pirates would dress like this.

In addition, the biggest possibility is the mafia and the spy organization of the world government.

If it is Xihai, the probability of the mafia will be even greater.

But this is Beihai, and it is also Beihai where the underworld is dominated by Doflamingo. There are not many mafia in Beihai, and they basically make a living under the Don Quixote family.

"Aren't these people pirates?" Luo thought it was pirates attacking the town, but when he saw the scene in front of him, he realized something was wrong.

"If my guess is correct, these people should be the Draco slave fleet."

Old people and some ugly guys were killed.

The rest are all young and beautiful, both men and women, and there are even many cute children.

This eliminates the need for labor to capture prisoners.

"You mean the group of world nobles that Maria went to?"

Luo's hometown was indirectly destroyed by the Celestial Dragons. The platinum and lead in the white town had a lot of value. The World Government and the royal family in the white town concealed the platinum-lead virus for their own benefit, causing all ordinary people to be infected. Platinum lead disease.

Luo didn't have a good impression of the Celestial Dragons, which was why he didn't seek help from the Navy even though he knew Rosinandi was a Marine.

Luo Nandi is the adopted son of Navy Marshal Sengoku. With this relationship, Luo can definitely join the navy. Once he has the ability to protect himself, whatever he does in the future will be smooth.

Koro never considered becoming a navy, but decided to become a pirate.

The navy had already abandoned the white towns once.

He won't give a second chance.

"It's just my guess, I can't guarantee it." Lucid replied.

Hearing this, Luo had already walked out.
