"If the navy becomes like them, if I were their commander, I would put them all in solitary confinement, and then demote them to the rank and file."
Esdeath said calmly, "The dignified navy was actually fooled by a group of losers watching the gate. If this spreads out, where will the navy's face be put?"
"One thing to say, one thing to say, it's true."
Annan said, "It was obviously the uncle who was invited, but he turned out to be the grandson."
"Hey, this gun looks good." Annan looked at the pistol in the display cabinet.
The style of the pistol is that of a common flintlock pistol, but it should also be made of special stones from Shidao. The main body of the gun is white, and the handle is inlaid with gems and engraved with gold edges.
"The Navy Lord has really good eyesight."
Seeing Annan's interest in this gun, the shop owner on the side hurriedly came over, rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "This is the treasure of our shop. It was made by the late master weapon carver of the Kunta Kingdom-Dande.
Lie Jax spent several years carving and polishing it."
"Since Master Jax passed away a few years ago, the weapons he left behind are all out-of-print treasures. There is no such thing as my store if you pass by."
Stone carvers are the name given to craftsmen who can process the special stones of Shidao. If you want to subdivide them, they can be divided into weapon carvers, jewelry carvers, etc.
"Look what you said, an out-of-print treasure, the treasure of the store."
Annan pointed at this display cabinet, which was considered remote in the store, "You would put the treasure of the store in such an inconspicuous place, and why not provide it properly."
"Boss, when you get older, stop doing those little tricks."
Annan looked at the shop owner's white beard and said with a smile.
"This is not a trick. It says on the outside of the store: Children are innocent."
The store owner raised his hand and pointed to the conspicuous shelf in the center of the weapons store and said:
"I am a businessman, and I want to make money by opening this weapons store. The latest weapons and popular weapons should be placed in a conspicuous location."
"People nowadays are all ignorant. My 'store treasure' is extremely precious, but those customers actually look down on it, saying they are flashy, and they also accuse me of boasting."
"How can it be repaired? I was also a man who fought on the Grand Line in my early years. I have never seen any big scenes. I have eaten more salt than those brats have eaten, and they still call me bragging..."
As he spoke so deeply, the shop owner almost burst into tears.
"What are you discussing?"
Esdeath heard something moving here and looked in the direction of Annan.
Suddenly her eyes focused on the display cabinet in front of Annan, and she walked quickly over.
"Oh, this pistol..." Esdeath said, looking down at the display cabinet.
"Well, you see, your companion knows better than you, right?" The shop owner held his head high and proudly said to Annan, "No matter how dusty the pearl is, it is still a pearl. My baby finally met someone who knows the business..." p>
"Hey, boss, take out the pistol from the cabinet and show it to me." Esdeath raised her head and said to the store owner.
"Here we come." The store owner took out the pistol from the display case and handed it to Esdeath with a smile on his face.
"This gentleman has really good eyesight. This pistol belongs to our store..."
"Wait a minute, boss, you got the wrong one." Esdeath interrupted the store owner and pointed to another pistol in the display case.
"I want the black one."
In addition to the white pistol that Annan was interested in, there is also a black flintlock pistol in the showcase.
"..."
The shop owner's smile froze and his movements suddenly froze.
Esdeath ignored him, took the pistol from his hand, weighed it a few times, and aimed the gun at the target in the store.
"Click."
The crisp trigger sound came from the pistol.
"I like this gun very much." Esdeath turned the gun skillfully, "How much does it cost?"
"Ah...this...that..."
The store owner came to his senses with a strange expression.
"Boss, you're not going to say that this gun is also your treasure, right?" Annan said with a smile.
"You guessed it right." The store owner took out the white pistol from the display cabinet.
"The two pistols are matched sets."
"The white pistol I'm holding now is called 'Destroy', and the black pistol in this gentleman's hand is called 'Destroy'."
Annan's mouth twitched, "Destroy and destroy? Do you still want to sell the hammer?
"Just right, I'll use this black one and you use the white one." Esdeath said to Annan, and then asked the shop owner: "How much is the total?"
"Ten million beli." The shop owner rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "But since you are a navy, the Kingdom of Quinta will reimburse 30% of the navy's expenses on the island, so you only need to pay seven million beli." p>
"This is much more expensive than ordinary guns."
Esdeath played with the black pistol repeatedly and said, "But the rare thing is the more valuable, and it is still very collectible. I like it, so I won't price it with you."
"But we don't have that many Baileys on hand. They are all on the ship. When we leave, we will ask the navy here to hand over the money to you." Esdeath said.
"Of course, we believe in the Navy's promise." The shop owner grinned to the sky, "Thank you both for your patronage."
As soon as they walked out of the store, a middle-aged man with dark skin and a stone hoop on his head ran over and saluted them with a smile on his face:
"Mr. Annan, I am Barr, captain of the guard of the King of Quinta Kingdom. The pirate Pacheco Landry who was killed by you and your subordinates is also a major criminal in our kingdom."
"Landry committed a heinous crime in our kingdom a few months ago. The kingdom issued a huge reward, but he still ran away. I thought he had been hiding in a hidden place in the kingdom, but I didn't expect that he was out at sea.
Pirates!"
"His Majesty the King is very grateful to you, and specifically announces that all your expenses in the Kingdom of Kunta will be paid for by the King."
"And sent me here to invite you to attend the king's succession ceremony tonight."
After saying that, Barr took out the invitation from his arms, bent down and handed it to Annan with both hands.
"I didn't expect that the pirates arrested along the way would have such benefits." Annan accepted the invitation, "Sure enough, not sinking them into the sea was the right choice."
"But... the king's succession ceremony?" Annan frowned, "I remember that King Mento of the Kingdom of Kunta has succeeded to the throne for ten years."
"That's it, Mr. Annan."
Barr replied: "His Majesty the King is very interested in ceremonies. Whenever a certain number of tourists come to Shidao, or dignitaries come to Shidao, the king will hold his own succession ceremony for them to express their feelings.
A king's welcome."
"You mean, your king uses his own succession ceremony to welcome guests?" Esdeath asked curiously.
