"Ha, maybe." Barrow said with a smile, "These pirates are scattered all over the kingdom. Under Baal's operation, they turned into guards and entered important locations such as mines, docks, and wall sentries, and even
Came here."
"You said they replaced the palace guards? Was it all the guards in the palace, or some of them." As soon as he finished speaking, Annan frowned, as if he felt something, and subconsciously looked out the window.
From here, you can see the guards standing guard outside the banquet hall, but now those guards have gone.
"These people all wear helmets, and the king doesn't recognize them. But to make sure, Barr should replace all of them with pirates, otherwise the news will easily leak. Even if they are not pirates, they are all his soldiers. Anyway, now
The palace has been completely controlled by Barr."
Barrow also followed Annan's gaze and looked out the window.
"The guards standing guard at the entrance of the banquet hall must be pirates. People from Baal will not leave their jobs without authorization."
"Maybe." Annan mumbled a few words and looked back.
Barrow looked at Annan, and he suddenly noticed that the eyes under the mask had a strange expression, and there seemed to be a flash of red light in the pupils.
"Even if those pirates only replaced some of the guards, including those from other places, there are quite a lot of people in this pirate group. Are you sure they are from the same pirate group?"
As he spoke, Annan pulled out the Muramasa from his waist, took out a piece of white cloth from his pocket with his left hand, and began to wipe the blade.
"This...I really don't know." When Barrow saw Annan pulling out Muramasa, he thought he was going to silence him, and his whole body started to tremble.
"I am only responsible for the palace area, and I can't inquire about other places. But at least the pirates in the palace are all from the 'ceiling' pirate group."
"Okay, I'll scare you, I won't do anything to you now." Annan raised Muramasa, the light reflected from the blade shone on the white mask, and then sheathed Muramasa.
"Now let's talk about Barr's plan to steal the country. Tell us as much as you know..."
………………
At the same time, in the banquet hall.
The people inside rolled their eyes in different postures and fell to the ground. Even the video phone bug that had been broadcasting retracted into its shell and stopped projecting. The scene became strange and silent.
Among the fallen people, there was a guard standing, with several ice bars as thick as wine bottles running through his body from top to bottom, immobilizing him. Blood flowed downwards along the ice, but it had not yet touched the ground.
It condenses into ice.
And at the guard's feet, a dark handcuff fell.
"It's quite impressive. You even brought Hailou Stone. It seems that you have made sufficient preparations to deal with us."
Esdeath sat on a chair, crossed her legs up and down, and said contemptuously to the butler Fern lying on the floor with the soles of her shoes.
"You want to deal with me with a sea-floor stone handcuff? Are you underestimating me or overestimating yourself?"
Butler Fern hasn't recovered yet.
Just now, he took advantage of Barrow's opportunity to take Annan with him, thinking of getting rid of Esdeath first.
He first revealed some information about Barr's desire to "steal the country" in front of Esdeath, trying to attract Esdeath's attention, and then asked the guards to handcuff her with seastone handcuffs to make her lose her fighting ability. p>
But the moment the guard approached, several meters of ice flew over from nowhere, stabbing the guard to the core.
Before everyone in the banquet hall could react, a terrifying aura swept across the entire banquet hall, driving away everyone's consciousness.
And Finn himself didn’t know how he managed to survive.
Seeing that Finn didn't speak, Esdeath raised his hand and a small ice pick hit his thigh. The cold pain made Finn's brain become extremely clear.
"I deliberately prevented you from fainting. Come on, tell me, what is Barr's plan to 'steal the country'?"
