Lord of Water in One Piece

Chapter 63 Casino
"Ah, boring, how can you be so boring."

Lin Yu lay idly on a chair on the deck, howling.

It has been almost a week since Lin Yu left Alabasta. After that, he passed two more islands, but because the route he chose was too biased, both islands were uninhabited.

"Oh, the route I chose, I have to finish it even if I'm bored... Bridge bean sack, it seems that this route was chosen by Xiaoyin (▽), then..."

"Master, although I did choose the route, it was your request, so please respect yourself."

After Lin Yu finished speaking, Xiaoyin said that he would not take the blame, and refuted Lin Yu.

"Little Silver, you still can't do it. As an excellent intelligence, you have to learn to take the blame for your master."

"...Is it too late for me to apply for a change of owner?"

"Ahem, don't take it seriously ヽ(≧Д≦)ノ, I'm almost on the next island."

Lin Yu made a show of being cute and changed the subject, and when it came to business, Xiaoyin didn't take it seriously.

"Well, there's still an hour and a half to go."

"Let me ask first, is there anyone who can talk?"

"There seems to be a village in the records, but it seems that there are not many records, so it should be a very small village."

"OK, hurry up, I'll take a shower and change my outfit first."

I-is-time-time-minute-division-line
"Isn't there even a port here? The boat is placed directly on the shore."

After getting off the boat, Lin Yu began to look around and observe the surrounding environment.I found that there were three boats on the shore, and they were all ordinary small wooden boats. When driving it at sea, as long as there is some bad weather, you can prepare to have a feast.

Lin Yu continued to walk forward, and within a mile, he saw a small village.

It is said to be a village, but in fact it is just a dozen houses together, and these houses can tell the local situation just by looking at them.

Walls made of earth and stone, tops of groups of wood and straw.

"Seeing that there are boats on the shore, it means that this place has contact with the outside world, but it is still so poor, which is interesting."

As Lin Yu approached, he also saw the people who lived here, and when he saw these people, Lin Yu understood most of it.

Wherever Lin Yu looked, all the people were old people, but the strange thing was that these old people were either disabled or had some physical problems.

As Lin Yu approached, those old people gathered together consciously, and one of the oldest stood at the front, who seemed to be a figure similar to the village head.

Lin Yu's approach made these old people restless, but they were all calmed down by the leader.

Lin Yu approached the group of old people, and while he was still looking at them, the one in the lead spoke first.

"My lord, hello. I am the head of this village, you can call me Haika. May I ask if you have anything to do when you land on this island? It's fine if you ask for directions, but if you want to collect debts, please have a lot of money, my lord." Well, you can also see from our situation here that there is really nothing we can do about it.”

Lin Yu looked at the respectful old man in front of him, and checked the village over and over again calmly and domineeringly with his knowledge.

All the houses are almost the same, there is only a wooden bed, a stone pot, and a few small fish in the pot, it seems that this is their meal.

After confirming that there was no trap, Lin Yu asked the old man in front of him.

"Old man, I'm not here to collect debts, but just to ask for directions. What's the situation here, why are there no young people here?"

After hearing this, the old man sighed and said.

"Hey, the child has no mother, it's a long story. Our village used to be a big village with hundreds of people..."

As soon as he heard the beginning, Lin Yu was puzzled.

"Wait a minute, let me see that your house is not a few hundred people."

"My lord, please listen to me first. Ten years ago, there were hundreds of people here. Ten years ago, when a villager went to another island to find a job, our place began to change."

"The villager went out poor and came back rich. We were all shocked at that time. The original small dilapidated wooden boat became a big boat with two bodyguards on it."

"When we asked him, he told us that a casino was built in the town of that island, and that's where he got the money. When he said this, the young people in the whole village went crazy. Went to that casino."

"Indeed, in the first one or two years, these young people gambled a lot of money, and then some bought houses in that place, took the old people there, and some built new houses for us here."

"But these are just illusions. From the third year onwards, some people committed suicide because of losing money, but others didn't care. They all thought that they could get out of it even if they couldn't make money, and they all thought that they could control their desires."

"Then, from the fifth year onwards, all young people either committed suicide or were captured as slaves, no matter men, women, old or young, as long as they could move, we all escaped because we were all flawed and couldn't do anything. It was a catastrophe, but the old new houses were also smashed, so we had to build a barely-there house with mud and stones."

After listening to the old man's explanation, Lin Yu expanded the scope of his knowledge, and found the wreckage of those houses five kilometers away.

After confirming the authenticity of the old man's words, Lin Yu pondered for a while, and then said majesticly.

"It's unbearable to have such a thing! Old man, do you know where that casino is? I'll help you to uphold justice!"

Although he said so in his mouth, in his heart.

"Casino, I just didn't play at the Rain Banquet because of Crocodile's sudden appearance. This time I just had fun (▽), oh no, to uphold justice for the people."

"No, we appreciate your kindness, but we are used to our current life, so we don't need to bother you to go for us."

"No, I must go, I want to uphold justice for you!"

"No, your lord's kindness..."

"No, I must go..."

………… A hundred times later
"Well, if that's the case, then I'll tell you, my lord. You can continue to move forward. After walking for a few hundred kilometers, you will be able to see the island."

"OK, I'm leaving now, and I should be able to arrive tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, Lin Yu was about to leave, but the old man suddenly stopped Lin Yu again, and led Lin Yu a few meters forward, and spoke only after making sure that the other old men could not hear him.

"My lord, let me tell you that when I was young, I also went out and ventured out. I feel that the casino is not easy. The young people in our village once called the navy, but for some reason, the navy was open to the casino. Turn a blind eye, so please be careful if you do go, my lord."

After finishing speaking, the old man said a few nonsense loudly, and then returned to the village.

Lin Yu thought for a while, and then decided to cover the water and earth with soldiers, and then came to the seaside, and continued to drive towards the island with the casino.
