The carriage jolted through the streets and arrived at another neighborhood in the royal city.
Compared with before, the streets here are obviously neater and cleaner, the pedestrians are also relatively well-dressed and beautiful, and they look polite when walking, talking and laughing.
There is a single-family mansion not far ahead, which is Hogubak's mansion.
Farther away is a broad staircase with higher terrain, and above the staircase is the magnificent palace.
In the carriage, Lin Qi secretly thought: In the world of One Piece, it seems that the palaces of all countries are built on high points... Even the isolated country of Wano is no exception.
………………
"What the hell is he!"
"It's an evil spirit! The evil spirit followed us back!!"
Inside the Black Powder Security Company, gang members screamed.
The cigar floats in the air, with green smoke curling from the top and red sparks flickering on and off.
"Damn it!" The branch boss who had his cigar taken away angrily grabbed the ashtray and threw it at it, but it was empty. The place where the cigar floated was not like he thought, but there was an invisible man.
There is simply... no one.
The cigar floated leisurely, and then, Lynch's sketch paper, Robin's reward order, and a pile of business documents also floated inexplicably on the table.
The branch boss gritted his teeth and turned over the table, kicking towards the cigar and documents.
Those things were avoided deftly, and the branch boss kicked them in the air. He fell to the ground, looked back, and saw that the lit cigar butt had been leaning against the edge of the pile of papers, lighting them up.
The sparks jumped up, spread and burned, and soon turned into a ball of flame.
Even though he knew that this was most likely the power of a Devil Fruit... and would not be a truly terrifying wraith... there was still a chill that ran up the branch boss's spine.
Damn it, how do you defeat this kind of enemy!?
Several gang members, who were already bloody, had already dumped the bodies. Whoever wants to contact the undertaker to collect the bodies can do so. They want to escape now anyway!
They hadn't taken a few steps when they suddenly felt severe pain in their shoulders.
"ah!!"
It was as if a cold hand reached into their shoulders, separated them forcefully, tore their flesh and blood, grabbed their bones, and squeezed them mercilessly.
This kind of pain can only be vented by screaming.
"Ahhhh!!"
"You, don't come here!!"
There were pitiful screams in the room.
It was not as if there were no passers-by passing by on the street outside the house and hearing the noise coming from inside.
But... people who live nearby know more or less what this house is.
Although everyone is quite used to gangster matters, it is better to have less contact with them if nothing happens...
In the room, pieces of paper one after another, whether it was sketch paper, reward orders, transaction sheets, various account books, and other documents, were taken out from the bodies of these people by invisible hands.
Each drawer flew out of the bookshelf and was thrown into the fire on the ground. Puff, puff, puff... the flames became more intense.
"Me, my Bailey..."
The gang members, whose faces were covered with blood, fell in a pool of blood on the ground, and they all watched with pain on their faces as the banknotes in their pockets were taken out by invisible hands.
Piles of Baileys were found, and several gang members whose arms were taken down by invisible evil spirits watched their bills fly to the side of the fire. They seemed to hesitate for a moment before finally throwing them in.
There was even a reward warrant that was found in the drawer.
It was a yellowed reward notice, obviously very old.
The photo showed a beautiful girl with long wavy pink hair, her face looking sideways at something, the corners of her mouth raised wide, full of evil charm.
No matter life or death!
Bounty 1.49 billion!
The name is——Charlotte Lingling!
After the younger brothers saw it clearly, they all shuddered and looked at their boss.
There is actually a reward order from when BIG.MOM, one of the cruel sea emperors, was young!
Could it be that when the boss is smoking a cigar in the house, he would occasionally take out the reward notice from his youth to admire it?!
So boring!
Charlotte Lingling's reward order fell and slowly landed on the fire.
The boss of the branch had blood on his face and a face full of reluctance. Even though he was in pain, he still wanted to prevent the treasured reward order from being burned to ashes.
But as soon as he got up, the "evil spirit" who ruthlessly executed the order reached into his arm, pinched his elbow bone hard, and dislocated it!
"ah!!"
"B.I.B"'s eyes glowed white, and the flames at his feet spread and burned, but he couldn't touch it, and naturally he couldn't burn it at all.
It kicked each gang member again, picked up a wooden stick, dipped it in the blood on the floor, came to a wall, and took off the scroll hanging on it.
"B.I.B" recalled what its main body told it after the gunshots were fired on the street before taking action.
[After Lynch glanced at Robin, he grabbed "B.I.B" and said in its ear: "After defeating these people, follow them...find their lair and teach them a lesson! That's right!"
, found any reward orders and other things, burned them all! ...Finally, um... before you come back, write a sentence on their wall..."]
"…………"
"B.I.B" held up the wooden stick dripping with blood and was silent for a moment, but did not start writing.
The gang members groaned in pain and rolled in a pool of blood, looking at the bloody wooden stick hovering on the wall in horror.
A thread of blood trickled down the wall, branching and flowing along the tiny cracks in the wall... vaguely weaving into some horrifying picture...
Does this have any meaning?
What else is this terrible evil spirit going to do?!
The fire spread and burned the table legs. The bloody wooden stick suddenly flew back and hit each of the frightened gangsters on the head. Finally, the wooden stick was thrown away and landed in a pool of blood...
The gang members trembled and refrained from making any move.
For a long time, there was no movement in the room except for the sound of crackling flames.
"Is it, is it gone?"
………………
After "B.I.B" left the Black Powder Security Company, he stood at the door like a ghost. Based on the subtle induction, he recognized the direction in which the main body was.
It doesn't care what street or route it is, it just walks directly through the wall.
Of course it’s faster to go in a straight line!
"B.I.B" is a ball of energy. Ordinary walls cannot constitute an obstacle at all. It shuttles through half of the city like a ball of wind.
The old man sleeping in the house, the nobleman eating at the dining table, the girl reading at the table, the urchins playing ball in the courtyard, the men and women playing in the swimming pool, and even the multi-person sports in the bedroom...
When "B.I.B" found a luxurious single-family house in an upper-class neighborhood at the foot of the palace, after entering, it found its main body waiting in an empty room.
"You, wait..."
Lin Qi was chatting with Robin when he felt something. He turned around and saw the dark armor rushing towards him like a ghost.
The stand-in Blue Flame's left hand pulled out the flower fruit chip from Lynch's body, placed it in the inverted triangle area of his chest, and then immediately poured it into the main body.
"Ah...! Hmm..."
Lynch was shaking like an epileptic, moaning in ecstasy.
Robin next to him shut up, and a question mark slowly appeared on his head.
"Damn, what a rush..."
Lin Qi gritted his teeth and regained his breath.
At this moment, a numb and strange feeling was growing in his limbs, and the substitute's experience, fatigue, and gains were perfectly compatible with him.
At the same time, the memories of the stand-in's time abroad also instantly entered Lin Qi's mind.
"But it is true that this way of reporting is simpler and more intuitive than speaking! You are quite smart, as expected of me!"
Lin Qi laughed, dark energy flames surged from his body, and released "B.I.B" again.
"However, it's such a shame that an illiterate can't write, so why don't you come back to me?!" He gritted his teeth, avoiding the short-haired Robin next to him who was full of question marks, and lowered his voice and said in embarrassment, "You don't know how to ask questions on the ground?
