Councilor Hope glanced at them lightly and waved his hand. Joshua, the man in sunglasses, quickly kicked a few more heads into the box, zipped them up and threw them into the trash can in the room.
"Well done, don't be so impulsive next time."
"Hey, definitely next time."
Joshua chuckled, not caring at all. There are some things that can be done but cannot be said. As a close subordinate of Congressman Hope, if you can't figure out this idea, then there is no need to mess around.
At this time, he seemed to remember something again, frowned and reported, "I heard that the seventh child of the Bart family of the Sky Fox clan in the Nine Families in Beijing will also come to Wano Country to observe the execution. There are more than one hundred people from the Nine Families.
Haven’t you always kept a low profile in Nian?”
Councilor Hope looked out the floor-to-ceiling window and said calmly, "The Bart family of Tianhu has always been unprofitable. I guess there is something about Wano that attracts him."
At this point, he suddenly narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Sigmund's industry in Wano has been almost cleared up. Remember to register a new trademark when I go back this time. By the way, someone told me that the first one at the exhibition
Item No. 001 [Scrap]...that human girl with dual talents survived?"
"Do you need me to go find out?" Joshua asked knowingly.
"Well, once you find out more about it, don't alert the enemy."
Councilor Hope said calmly, "Don't forget the purpose of our visit this time. The prisoner from the Judgment Department will be here soon."
Joshua nodded, "It is said that tomorrow, Judge Kyle, one of the twelve rulings of the Judgment Division, will personally lead the team."
Councilor Hope lit a thick cigar and chuckled, "Haha, are you taking the initiative to join the game? It seems that Kyle is also very interested in the big fish we are going to catch this time."
"The family business behind Kyle often trades in the East China Sea, and he has long been gnashing his teeth against those guys on the sea." Joshua paused and continued, "And I heard that he also mobilized some of the East China Sea recruits under his command this time.
Come with the pirates."
"Tsk tsk...the lineup is getting more and more luxurious."
Councilor Hope raised his head and exhaled thick smoke, looked at the misty smoke above his head and said lightly, "You said that with our great posture, the 'First Swordsman in the East China Sea' won't waver and give up, right?"
"This... subordinate is really not sure."
Joshua shook his head.
Anyway, if it were him, one of his subordinates would be caught, and there would be a group of enemies waiting to lure you into the trap.
Even if he were killed, he would not get in there.
Whoever takes advantage of someone is not a fool?
At this moment, Joshua's cell phone suddenly vibrated.
He took out his cell phone and answered it, and his expression darkened without saying a few words. Hope next to him looked at him calmly, and Joshua quickly hung up the phone.
"What's going on?" Councilor Hope asked.
Joshua said with an embarrassed expression, "The human kou trade ship we took a detour to the North Sea to transport to the Grand Duchy of Shayash was robbed by two pirate forces, and all the crew members have been captured."
"Two pirate forces? There are still pirates in the North Sea who dare to touch our ship?"
Councilor Hope frowned when he heard this.
Among the pirate forces in the four sea areas, the West Sea is the most rampant and powerful. It can be said to be a paradise for pirates, and it even dares to openly challenge the world government.
The North Sea is the weakest, and many pirate groups have been recruited and reorganized by the World Government.
Joshua shook his head and replied in a low voice, "No...it's the 'Sakamoto Dragon' pirate group from the East China Sea. Those guys seem to have gotten the information and are waiting on our route. There is another group of pirates."
The report says they are the 'Yaksha' pirate group that just emerged from the North Sea."
"Haha, Dragon of Sakamoto...is this a greeting in advance?"
After Councilor Hope was startled for a moment, his face suddenly relaxed and he smiled, "But at least I am sure of one thing. They will definitely come to the execution on Rising Sun Island this time."
Joshua laughed ferociously.
"Then let's settle the accounts together then!"
...
North Sea.
The waters of the Grand Duchy of Sayash.
The sky is sunny, the sea breeze is moist and salty, and the sparkling sea surface gives people a feeling of shining like gems, and the flow of it makes people feel happy and comfortable.
But the leader of the "Yasha" pirate group, Noda Shizawa, was half-kneeling on the deck of a transport station, raising his head and looking through the smiling people around him with gritted teeth on his face.
He looked at the figure standing on the bow of the boat wearing wooden clogs. He had medium-long black hair with high highlights and was tied into a bunch. He was wearing a purple yukata robe painted with hell mandala flowers and dark golden butterflies. He was holding a hand behind his back.
Back view of man with metal smoking pipe looking at the sea.
hateful!
This operation is obviously going to be successful!
The Yasha Pirates had even begun to celebrate, but they were intercepted halfway by this group of East China Sea pirates who appeared out of nowhere.
Thinking of this, Noda Shizan's heart suddenly burst with anger, "Hey! You bastard of Sakamoto's Dragon! Since I lost to you, I have to hurry up if I want to kill him."
Hearing his words, everyone in the surrounding Sakamoto Dragon Pirates burst into laughter again.
The man with his back turned finally turned around.
He has a pair of pure black eyes, with his left eye open and the right eye closed under his messy and flowing long hair. He has an inexplicable aura of a pirate and a noble mixed together.
His name is Sakamoto-san.
The contemporary leader of the Sakamoto Dragon Pirates, the man known as "the strongest swordsman in the East China Sea"!
Faced with Noda Shizawa's clamor, Sakamoto showed a casual smile on his face, "Do you want to kill or behead me? Haha, but what I need... is a partner. Only those who have partners on the sea can be truly powerful.
,don’t you think so?”
"partner?"
Noda Shizhan glanced at his trembling men in the corner of the deck who had surrendered long ago. A disdainful smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he turned his head and said:
"That kind of thing will only be a drag, right? I've heard of you, the strongest swordsman in the East China Sea. Didn't a guy in your pirate group want to be executed recently? Are you really going to save him?"
A sarcastic smile appeared on his face, he raised his neck and closed his eyes, "Stop being pretentious. The so-called partners are just tools to be used when needed. If you don't kill me today, sooner or later I will become a swordsman."
, we must kill everyone on your ship!"
By the end, his voice was filled with both strong confidence and angry resentment.
"Then there's nothing we can do."
Sakamoto tapped the pipe in his hand.
His right hand quietly landed on the ancient sword covered with strict and complicated arcane patterns on his waist. His thumb slowly pressed against the blade and was unsheathed, revealing a dazzling clear light.
Miyaki Maru!
The Twenty-One Great Knife - One of the famous swords passed down from generation to generation, forged by a famous craftsman from Kyoto, Wano, during the "War against the Foreigners" thousands of years ago, by refining the meteorite iron brought to this world by the gods.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, among the "Yasha" pirates who were kneeling in the corner, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy suddenly rushed out, stood in front of Sakamoto and opened his arms, his body trembling and tense.
He shouted with some stuttering:
"Don't! Don't kill Mr. Noda! If you want to kill, just kill me!"
Noda Shizawa was stunned when he heard this. The moment he saw the young boy, he became angry and said, "Rintaro, get out of here! It's not your turn to be a hero. This is a battle between labor and management alone!"
Sakamoto's handsome face showed a slight smile, and he picked up the pipe again.
"It seems that you also have a partner, right? Standing up for important partners is the real strength, and you are just trying to show off your strength..."
At this time, someone next to me brought two large Haikou bowls.
The bowls were filled with clear and refreshing wine. One bowl was first handed to Jisaka at the bow of the ship, and then the other bowl was delivered to Noda Shizan who was half-kneeling on the ground.
Sakamoto took the sake and casually leaned against the bow of the boat, looking at the flocks of birds leaping across the sea. He chuckled and said,
"Anyone can fight without a partner,
But,
That’s really boring.”
After saying that, he raised the big bowl toward Noda and drank all the wine in one gulp.
Noda Shizawa, who was half-kneeling on the deck, stared blankly at the large bowl of wine in front of him. He glanced at the trembling Rintaro standing in front of him, then raised his head and glanced at the free and carefree man in the sun, surrounded by Sakamoto Dragons.
The other leaders of the pirate group looked at him with smiles.
