Since ancient times, tiger poison will not eat its seeds.
Saint Roswader showed his attitude clearly when he disobeyed orders and left Pangu City.
The Five Old Stars are the most noble beings among them, and there is even the mysterious role of Imna above them. However, can the aloof and self-centered dragon people really put collective interests above personal feelings?
Even if you think about it, you know it's impossible.
The government knew that the time to contact Kaido after Charros was kidnapped was now. At this moment, neither party's attention was on Roswald, which provided an opportunity to take advantage of it.
As long as you get on this pirate ship...
Kozuki Oden: "Then that guy named Roswad can't be cleaned."
Red Continent, Holy Land, Marie Joa.
Bang!
At the highest point of the headquarters where the Five Old Stars were located, the crystal wine glass was thrown out heavily and smashed to the ground, unable to be put back together again.
"What are everyone doing?!"
The five old stars with long beards rarely blushed, and roared: "I asked you to catch the Straw Hats. They are gone. They are gone. They are transporting the hostages. The hostages are gone. What else can you do?!"
At the door, Raised Support Rob Luqi and Kong bowed their heads in silence, not daring to raise their heads.
This really cannot be explained.
Kong has not received his salary in vain these years. The assassination troops in the Holy Land are from his men, and the failure is obviously his responsibility.
CP0 was responsible for transporting the hostages, and Rob Lucci was not exempt from the blame.
I didn’t know how valuable the money was. I originally thought that the tortured CP0 would regain its glory in my own hands. However, first on Judiciary Island, I was defeated by the Straw Hats, and then turned around and was taken hostage.
Rob Lucci has no other ideas now and is willing to die to apologize.
A rare moment of anger subdued the other five old stars. Only then did they realize that the honest man was the scariest one when he was angry. Everyone had been deceived in the past.
No, that's not the point!
The swordsman Wu Laoxing narrowed his eyes and said: "Calm down, we can investigate the responsibility later. The focus now is that Charros was taken away. Where will Capone Beki take him?"
"Where else could it be? I'd definitely give it to the Black Earl as a pledge!"
The five old stars of the Mediterranean agreed, blushing, and said angrily: "It's not like you don't know about the commotion in Shampoo. Capone Becky hid in the Baroque headquarters to prevent the navy from taking action. If the two sides don't cooperate, that will be a big problem!"
"But... in this case, we can rest assured, right?"
The blond Five Old Star said calmly: "No matter what agreement the Black Earl has reached with Kaido, he knows that Charros is a hostage given to Kaido. Now he is in his hands. As long as he knows this, then Kaido There is no way you can trust the other party."
"If the Black Earl discovers our deal, he will definitely take action against Kaido. If he doesn't discover it, Kaido will send him away as soon as possible and go out to search for it."
"In this case, there is no room for cooperation."
Everyone frowned.
Indeed, no one knows the value of a dragon better than they do, and that is Lian Mei Guarantee.
It seemed that the opportunity to completely unite with Kaido was lost, but in turn, it also destroyed the possibility of those two people uniting.
Several people looked at each other.
After a while, the bald five-star asked tentatively: "So... don't worry about it?"
Now Capone Becky has just been defeated, and Drake is also pursuing him. He cannot be delivered to the Black Earl for the time being, but if it takes a while, it will be bad.
A dragon man, if he gives up, he gives up, and now he has to live or die?
"Well, of course that's impossible."
He glanced sideways at Sora and Rob Luqi. The swordsman Wu Laoxing held a long sword in his hand and looked at the sun to check whether the water stains on it were dry or not.
"We are monitoring it for the time being, and there is no need to rush to take it back... Wait until the gap between Kaido and the Black Earl deepens, and then send someone to bring it back. Maybe we can repair the relationship with the Rosewald family, killing two birds with one stone."
"Does that mean we have officially given up on the proposal to unite with Kaido?"
The bearded Five Old Star calmed down at this moment and made a summary neatly.
The others were silent for a moment, then raised their hands to vote.
"agree."
"agree."
"agree."
"Seconded."
"I see."
Seeing this, the bearded five old star did not hesitate and turned around to give the order: "Go and inform Kaido that the hostages were taken by the Black Earl's men. You should know what should be done and what should not be done, right?"
The two of them looked at each other after hearing this, both feeling frightened by Wulaoxing's capriciousness.
A few moments ago, preparations were being made for the alliance to annihilate the City of Dawn in one fell swoop. Who knows, a few hours later, they would immediately abandon their allies.
Against such an opponent, the Black Earl was truly unlucky for eight lifetimes.
…
Marie Joa, Pangu City.
Saint Roswader didn't know whether the Black Earl was unlucky or not. He only knew that he was unlucky.
At present, the population of the eighteen tribes of dragons in the Holy Land is close to three digits. He just chose one among them, and he actually chose his son.
He was very proud when he knew what the Five Old Stars were going to do. Their family was among the nobles among the dragon people, and they had successively produced four Five Old Stars in the past eight hundred years.
Even the current Five Old Stars have personally admitted that as long as his grandchildren perform well, they are expected to succeed them and join the Five Old Stars group.
Of course, there's nothing clear about that, but at least there is hope.
This kind of thing will only be selected from those weak families, especially those who have never left the Five Old Stars.
I am different from them.
I have to admit that even if they are a group and are the same nobles of the world, dragon people still have the bad nature of comparing each other and discriminating against each other.
However……
A bolt from the blue!
Precisely because the family had four trustworthy five-stars, his son Charles was chosen to be given to Kaido as a hostage.
Wulaoxing's optimism turned into a naked verbal contract, allowing him to take a step back for a while in exchange for a bright future.
"But what about my son? Beast!!"
Hearing the sound of things breaking in the room, two guards looked at the door and did not dare to ask.
People outside only knew that Charles was not Roswad's biological child, that is, he was cheated.
But they knew that there was no such thing.
It's a pity that even Roswald himself didn't dare to disobey the arrangements from above, and they didn't dare to publicize it to the outside world to save their master's reputation.
At this time, Roswad's daughter Shalulia came to the door, and the two guards quickly saluted.
"Shalulia Palace!"
Wearing a dragon-like robe and a glass hood, Shalulia Palace held a book and said "hmm" with a cold expression.
"Is my father in there?"
The guards were flattered by the sudden inquiry. In the past, Shalulia Palace would not be so polite to them, so they quickly replied: "Yes, Saint Roswader is inside."
"Yoshi, get out."
"Um?"
"Didn't you hear me telling you to get out?!"
Very good, it’s the familiar Shalulia Palace!
The guards did not dare to stay for a long time. They listened intently and did not hear Roswald's answer, so they bowed and saluted.
"yes!"
Entering the study, Shalulia swept across the room and saw her father sitting in a chair with his eyes darkened in a daze.
A mermaid girl "sent" by Wulaoxing not long ago was lying in the water tank shivering. When she saw her looking over, she quickly backed away.
But where will the retired disciples go?
Behind you is the wall.
With a hint of viciousness flashing in his eyes, Shalulia Palace slipped a flintlock musket from his wide sleeves and raised the gun to aim.
boom!!
The sound of the gunshot woke up Rozwald. He raised his head and looked at a large hole in the fish tank, with scarlet red flowing out of it, and the mermaid girl whose head was shot inside. Only then did he notice Shalulia's arrival.
"Oh, you're here."
He didn't care about the death of the mermaid girl and asked: "What's the matter?"
"My dear father, someone asked me to bring you a message."
Then, throwing away the smoking pistol, Shalulia placed the square book with a black cover in front of Roswaard and said.
"They, they can help us bring back big brother."
The look in his eyes gradually returned, and Roswald raised his head.
