Phantom of the Pirate

After allocating the location where everyone was going, Locke did not act in a hurry, but brought everyone to the town.

I found a shop selling phone bugs, and after spending 300 million Baileys to buy three small phone bugs, I went to meet Huamantian and the others.

As for why they met, it was because they had said before that they wanted to help Locke, but they temporarily separated because they met acquaintances on the pier and it was difficult for them to come forward.

But they didn't go far, just chatting in the center of the town, on the small square, while admiring the country's customs and customs.

When Locke and the others arrived here, they had been sitting here for a while, but what surprised Locke was that the old Taoist was not here, only his apprentice, Liu Tailie, was sitting by the fountain, squinting He looked at the beautiful women passing by.

"Lock! Here it is!" Hua Mantian, who was standing in front of a fruit stand at this moment, greeted Locke and the others.

Locke saw a few people and walked over. Of course, Liu Tailie, who was originally sitting in the fountain, also recovered from Huamantian's call just now, stood up and patted the dust on his body and walked over.

After everyone arrived, Locke told them about his arrangement just now, and then asked them to choose who to go with.

After all, they are not on their own boats, and it is their freedom to go how they want to go, and others have already promised to help, which is already very self-sufficient.

Finally, after discussing for a while, they decided that Hua Mantian would follow Yun Zhinan and Wukong, while Ximen Yushi and Liu Tailie would join Carmen and the others.

Indeed, no one wants to follow Xiong Da and Xiong Er. After all, the place they are going to is not far from here. When they were shopping just now, they have seen a little bit of what can be seen here, and the rest will come later. It's never too late to look again.

"Tai Lie! Where's your master? Why didn't you see anyone?" After deciding everything, Locke asked Liu Tai Lie at this time.

"Oh! My master, he said that he has already done the calculations. Although China Construction will have some twists and turns in our matter this time, it is still good to take over, so he will not participate. He will go to other places to see the scenery." When he was asked suddenly, Liu Tailie was obviously taken aback. Just now he almost forgot what his master explained just now when he saw the beautiful woman. If Locke hadn't asked at this time, he would never have remembered it.

"Cut! You pretended to be a ghost. At first you said you couldn't calculate the fate of the people on board, but now you can forget it. Do you think we are fools?" Locke kept complaining in his heart.

Locke was still very calm on the surface, he couldn't tell what was going on in his heart at all, and when he heard what the other party said, he just nodded calmly.

After knowing that the old Taoist priest was not there, Locke no longer resembled him. Instead, he handed over the phone bug he just bought to Hua Mantian and Liu Tailie, so that they could contact each other later.

After all, this time they are acting separately. Although the crew members are very strong, there may still be some accidents. After all, in this world, because of the emergence of the Great Xia Kingdom, there are many masters in the sea, and I don’t know. When one pops up suddenly, it is almost impossible to guard against.

That's why Locke bought two more phone bugs, one is to thank them for helping to find Anne, and the other is to call for support when encountering something that he can't handle by himself.

They didn't spend long together this time either. After Locke sent out the phone bugs, they each set off for their respective cities.

Only Locke stayed alone, mainly because he promised Uncle John that he would have dinner with him in the evening. Locke had already made a decision in his heart. After the meal, he would set off for the rainy land.

Time passed quickly, and after seeing off a few people, it was already night when Locke returned to the town, so Locke returned to the docking place of the merchant ship, invited Uncle John to a restaurant in the town for dinner.

I won’t go into too much detail about the meal process, anyway, it’s similar to when the elders ate in the previous life. First, I accompanied Uncle John for a drink. The story of running a business at sea.

At the beginning, Locke didn't pay much attention, but later he was really surprised by the story from Uncle John's mouth.

In Uncle John's story, he and Locke's father were the ones who drank and sang with Roger the Pirate King, and he could tell from his story that his father's strength was not weak. Can go through a hand or two.

This has to make Locke suspect that his father really died in a storm. After all, with such a powerful strength, how could he die in some kind of shipwreck? You must know that in the original anime, Luffy and the others went to Seven Waters They can face the storm all the time. Although their ship was indeed damaged during this, the people are all right.

At that time, the strength of Luffy and the others was absolutely no match for Roger. With such strength, they could face the storm directly. One could imagine that there must be something strange about their father's affairs.

It's a pity that when Locke wanted to continue asking, Uncle John fell asleep because he drank too much.

I don't know whether he pretended to be drunk after knowing what he said and couldn't say it, or he was really drunk. Anyway, Locke couldn't wake up no matter how much he screamed.

After the inquiry was fruitless, Locke also temporarily gave up. Anyway, he now knows some things. Since the other party doesn't say anything, he can't ask more, but Locke decided to pay more attention to this news in the future, maybe he will know. .

After the matter passed, Locke didn't think much about it, but secretly made a decision in his heart. If he really found out that his father was killed by someone, he would definitely avenge him. After all, he took the body of the other party's son. It's time to express it. It didn't matter if I didn't know it before, but now that I know something is wrong, of course I can't let it go.

After handing over Uncle John to his crew, Locke patted the coffin behind him and walked towards the desert outside the town, preparing to set off for the rainy land.

It's just that after Locke left, I really didn't know that after he left, a figure covered in a cloak appeared at the place where he was just now, and then looked at Locke's disappearing back, with a charming smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Unexpectedly, I really met you. I don't know if you can still beat me after so many years! I'm really looking forward to it!" After the pleasant voice whispered, the figure chased out in the direction of Locke. .
