Chapter 1236 Returning to the Magic Island of Juju (21)
The night became more and more gloomy.
The cold sea breeze brought a cloud and mist, covering the blood moon in the sky with a veil.
The gradually dimming light seems to be foreshadowing something, and an atmosphere of imminent rain has quietly enveloped the fragmented Zui Mo Island.
At this point, "North Island", the southern border.
"We're already here, why bother hiding anymore?" Blackbeard stood on a smooth rock, facing the sea, and said without looking back.
His voice wasn't very loud, but it was enough for Honghu to hear.
A few seconds later, Honghu walked slowly out of the forest behind them, adjusted his glasses, and said calmly: "It seems... I have to thank you."
"Why?" Blackbeard asked himself and answered, "Because I didn't want to just 'drag' you out of the woods and crush you to death like I did with the bastards from the Phantom Demon Church?"
"Yes." Honghu replied with a shrug, "That's why."
"Don't get me wrong." Blackbeard continued, "It's not that I don't want to do it, it's just that I can't do it."
"That is to say..." Honghu was keenly aware of the information hidden in the other party's words, "...that trick will not work on everyone."
"Isn't this an obvious thing?" Blackbeard said again, "If I could use it on whomever I wanted, then during the naval battle during the day, I would have 'dragged' Crazy Eyes over and quickly ended the battle.
Already."
"Hmm..." Honghu thought for a second, "The conditions for activation are related to the individual strength of the 'target', right?"
"That's right." Blackbeard said, raising his hand and "sucking" a stone on the ground into his hand, "I can handle inanimate 'dead things' like this as long as they are not too big.
You can use your mind to control it at will; as for living creatures...it depends on the energy contained in them."
"Ha..." Honghu heard this and let out a rather subtle laugh.
"Why are you laughing?" Blackbeard asked.
"I just suddenly thought..." Honghu replied with a smile, "While on the Queen's Revenge, I vaguely heard the conversation of several sailors. One of them once said... 'This ship is alive and will obey the captain.
Order, I once personally saw the rope on the ship move on its own, hanging up and strangling a guy who was about to attack the captain."
"Oh...that thing." Blackbeard said, "Indeed, I deliberately caused some sailors with lower combat power to have such a 'misunderstanding', which helped them maintain awe of me."
"So... where are the members with higher combat power?" Honghu said this, and glanced at the cadres around Blackbeard, "They should be able to see that 'things on the ship can move on their own' are all due to your ability.
To…how do you keep them in awe?”
"It's very simple." Blackbeard said, turning around and looking at Honghu, "These cadres of mine... naturally know how strong I am better than the crew members with low combat effectiveness. And the clearer they understand.
The stronger I am, the less likely it is that you will have the courage to resist me."
"That's it." Honghu nodded and adjusted his glasses.
On the surface, Honghu responded calmly and calmly, but in his heart he was actually quite nervous and was ready to face a sudden attack at any time.
"Okay, let's stop chatting here." Two seconds later, Honghu continued, "Since Captain you found me and specifically called me out, it should show that... there is still room for negotiation between us, right?
?”
Although the contact time was not long, Honghu had already determined that Blackbeard was a scheming old fox, so there was no need to beat around the bush with him.
If you think about it for a moment, you can understand... If Blackbeard wants to get rid of Honghu, the "stalker", there is no need to talk to him, just fight back and catch him off guard, which has the highest success rate.
And now, Blackbeard is taking the initiative to negotiate with Honghu, which shows that there is still room for change in this matter.
"Ha... I remember, your name is 'Honghu'?" Blackbeard sneered and asked.
"Exactly." Honghu replied neither humble nor overbearing.
"Okay, Brother Honghu..." Blackbeard suddenly changed his name to Honghu. In the latter's view, this was definitely not a good thing. "I'll tell you openly...you, and that Snow
"I still believe what you said, but Feng Bujue... I can't believe it." He paused, stretched out his hand, and made an invitation gesture, "As long as you tell me your 'real mission' and
Promise and draw a clear line between Feng Bujue... We can still cooperate."
Hearing this, Honghu's expression changed slightly, and he thought in his heart: "That scary guy... Compared to the unfathomable force, the overlord of the Sea of Chaos' attainments in strategy and city government are truly difficult to deal with.
Where..."
"What?" Not even a few seconds later, Blackbeard asked, "Does this still need to be considered?"
He is indeed a terrible man. He knows that at this time, he needs to continue to exert pressure so that the other party does not have sufficient time and margin to think.
"Ha! Hahahaha..." Fortunately, the person standing here is Honghu, "Okay, it's just what I want."
His reputation as a wise general was not in vain. These few seconds were enough for him to settle his account clearly.
"Oh?" Blackbeard was indeed a little surprised when he saw Honghu's reaction.
"Captain, to tell you the truth..." Honghu put on a sinister face, "I never considered Feng Bujue as a companion from the beginning." He looked around, "There are no outsiders here... I just
Let me tell you, I have wanted to kill him for more than a day or two."
"Really..." Blackbeard is not stupid. Just these few words and acting skills are not enough to convince him.
"Of course." Honghu said, "Look, the fact that I'm here doesn't mean that Snow and I have left Feng Bujue alone in that open space?"
"Didn't you agree to split up?" Blackbeard's reaction was strange. He immediately thought of another possibility and asked.
But Honghu is also very powerful. After being seen through and told the truth, he still tried to control his expression... without changing his expression, and answered fluently: "Huh... in that case? Don't be kidding, Captain." He shook his head.
He said, "If it were you, when facing three powerful enemies, two of whom are at the level of the Nine Gods, would you agree to let the only two helpers around you leave?"
"Hmm..." Blackbeard groaned, "Indeed, relatively speaking, it is the most reasonable hypothesis for you and Snow to take advantage of the fact that the enemy's target is only Feng Bujue and take the opportunity to abandon Feng Bujue and escape.
.”
"That's right." When Honghu heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and responded quickly.
Unexpectedly, the next second, Blackbeard changed the subject again.
"It's a pity... I still don't believe you!" After saying this, Blackbeard suddenly waved his arm and threw the stone he had "sucked" into his hand at the swan. (To be continued.)
