Arkham in the pirate world

On the one hand, Ace was sent to the Whitebeard Pirates to give Garp face, and on the other hand, Liszt was more familiar with the direction of the war.

The War on the Summit is the most influential war since the era of the Great Pirates. In this war, the great pirate Whitebeard, who once competed with the Pirate King, died, giving rise to countless guys in the new world who have the dream of "climbing to the top". , making room for one.

Liszt also needs such an opportunity.

Because in the new world, if you want to stand out, you will inevitably have to fight the four emperors and defeat one of them before you can take his place.

Then, Lister would have to choose a target from Kaido, Charlotte Lingling, Shanks, and Edward Newgate.

Kaido, the most powerful creature in the world, is unrivaled when fighting alone. His power is nestled in the country of Wano, occupying the right time and place.

Charlotte Lingling, when she didn't lose her mind, was a good business partner. Her strength and the overall power of the family were profound.

Shanks, a pirate group known for its iron wall, has an erratic whereabouts.

Edward Newgate, the world's strongest man, is admired by countless pirates for his "benevolence and justice".

It can be said that those who can become the four emperors are all those who have fought countless battles and have the qualifications of a "king".

Among the four emperors, Shanks can not be considered. His territory is too small. Besides, the relationship between the Red-haired Pirates and Liszt is acceptable. Fighting the Red-haired Pirates, no matter from that point of view, is No good for Liszt.

Kaido

Kaido has been developing his power in the country of Wano. If he wants to fight him, he has to face the general Orochi of the country of Wano. It can be said that the opponent has the right time and location. Even the navy is afraid of the country of Wano, even if he fights Next, we have to solve the problems left over from the history of Wano.

It’s totally thankless.

There is another reason. Liszt doesn't have a good impression of Wano Country, so he should let the people of Wano Country suffer further and wait for the savior that the palace said has been reincarnated for years to save them.

Charlotte Ringling

Although Charlotte Lingling is mediocre now, the children she gave birth to are indeed powerful characters who have managed all nations in order.

From the theoretical analysis of data, the war potential of the Big Thief Group is the strongest among the Four Emperors. As long as the battle drags into a protracted war stage, the advantages of the Big Thief Group will be reflected. Various nepotistic forces who are related to each other will definitely come to their aid one after another. .

So that leaves Edward Newgate

Although Edward Newgate is the man closest to the throne of the Pirate King after Roger, time has shown no mercy.

Injuries caused by fighting around in his youth and excessive use of fruit abilities shortened Edward Newgate's lifespan.

Whitebeard has grown old, and people are in awe of his reputation. Coupled with the support of the huge force under his command, the glory of the Whitebeard Pirates continues to this day.

However, after Edward Newgate, there is no one who can carry the banner. This is the biggest hidden danger of the Whitebeard Pirates, and it is also a common flaw of the four emperors.

The world government and navy can be passed down from generation to generation and recognized by talents from generation to generation, but the power of the Four Emperors often only perishes in one lifetime.

Once the captain, who was the one carrying the cauldron, died, the entire pirate group fell into pieces.

Therefore, Edward Newgate cannot die yet. In fact, since ten years ago, Edward Newgate has rarely taken action. Instead, he has let his captains do it for him in order to extend his life.

However, regardless of whether he can defeat Edward Newgate, it is morally untenable for Lister to take action against the Whitebeard Pirates without any reason.

To become a teacher, you need to be famous

This is reflected even in the pirate world.

Having said that, if Liszt wants to dethrone the Four Emperors now, he must go all out and risk everything to have less than a % chance.

For Liszt, the % chance is too few.

A real hunter will not shoot easily and expose himself unless he reaches the last moment and is not % or even % sure.

Liszt is still young. He has time to expand his power and improve his strength. He can lurk and wait for the opportunity that he knows will appear.

Marshall D. Teach, for an illusory opportunity, was willing to remain unknown in the Whitebeard Pirates for more than twenty years. Once he became famous all over the world, Liszt also had the patience to wait for the one who would appear after the "War on Top". opportunity, and by then, I believe his strength and power will be further enhanced, so why should he be anxious at this moment?

Regular reading of history can tell us about the past and the present. History has told us that building walls high, hoarding grain widely, and becoming king slowly will always work.

Before opportunities come, you must learn to protect yourself and stay dormant. When opportunities come, you must know how to seize them and make big bets.

However, Liszt has always brought many variables to the world, flapping his wings like a butterfly. So, will the "War on the Top" still happen?

Obviously, Liszt would not leave his fate to the unpredictable future, so Liszt made some small arrangements after Ace was rescued.

Times create heroes, and conversely, heroes can create times.

Although the grievances were discussed, Ace was still not very interested, because he was said to have settled the matter, but in fact it was Marco and Bista who paid him a sum of money according to the laws of the Earl of Arkham. Coupled with the Whitebeard Pirates' reputation, Liszt regressed. As soon as he joined the group, he caused trouble for the Whitebeard Pirates, which made Ace feel unhappy.

Perhaps they were aware of this, and Bista and Marco didn't talk much. They only sat for a moment and then stood up to leave.

After sending the three people to the door and watching them leave, Liszt let out a sigh and wondered whether Ace would follow his old path.

hope so

But no matter what, war will definitely happen

Liszt returned indoors, and the maids were cleaning up the restaurant. He walked up the stairs, and with a glance from the corner of his eye, he found a lone figure, holding a rag, cleaning up the garbage on the table. That golden hair looked very... conspicuous.

Liszt paused for a moment and continued walking up.

Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Even in this small manor, the maids also have their intrigues.

These maids came in with their own purpose and wanted them to be harmonious, unless Liszt was there.

And Helen was sent to Liszt as soon as she arrived, which undoubtedly touched their interests. When Helen did not come into the room, naturally, the other maids would exclude her and make things difficult for her, but they would not go too far. At most, Helen is asked to do some dirty and tiring work, or to bully her with words.

Although Liszt could change Helen's situation with just one word, Liszt hesitated and did not speak.

To be honest, with Liszt's current power, status, strength, and financial resources, he could decide the life or death of these maids with just one word or one thought. He wanted to praise Helen, and tomorrow Helen would be the most popular woman on Cessna Island.

But why would he do this?

The greater a person's rights, the more careful they should be in using them

Liszt's words made Helen stand up, and if she turned her head, would she pretend to be powerful and rely on him to bully others?

Besides, God saves those who save themselves.

Liszt has given Helen a job and a chance. If she wants to stay here, she will have to face these things. If she can't bear even this difficulty and hardship, then she might as well leave here as soon as possible. With her appearance, , just go to a casino or tavern, you can do easier work and get more Baileys.

If Helen was really capable, she would naturally draw nourishment from these hardships and hone herself and grow.

Liszt's intervention will only encourage the situation.

When Ace returned to the hotel, Skaar and Michal came forward and asked: "Boss Ace, how are you?"

On their way here, they learned that Ace had made a big fuss in the East China Sea.

"Solved" Ace said.

Skaar and Michal breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, happy for Ace.

"Why don't you go out to play? Come to this place and have a good time," Bista said.

"I won't go," Michal said with a smile.

"Are you really not going? It's good to go out for a walk occasionally," Bista said.

"not going."

"He just likes to stay in the cabin rather than go out," Skar explained to Bista.

Bista stopped embarrassing Michal and took Marco, Ace, and Skar to his casino.

After Michal waited for Ace and the others to leave, he came to the front desk of the hotel and said to the pretty waitress wearing a small vest: "Hello, madam, do you know about the recruitment of teachers in the orphanage?"

"I'm sorry, sir, I don't know." The waitress said while keeping a smile.

"However, you can ask at the city hall, there will be people on duty there at night."

"City Hall, please tell me how to get there."

"When you go out, go left, walk straight along the avenue, then turn right, and walk about five hundred meters, and you will be there. There are signs on the side of the road, you can follow the route above."

"OK, thanks"

"You're welcome"

Michal left the hotel, identified his location, and went straight to the city hall.

After listening to Michal's consultation, the staff member on duty said: "The civil affairs department is responsible for the welfare home's affairs. They are off work now. Come back after eight o'clock tomorrow morning and register with the Ministry of Civil Affairs. You should be there by then." There is an exam.”

"That's it, thank you"

Michal felt much more relaxed as he walked back, admiring the neon lights on the street and the pedestrians coming and going.

"Sister, buy a flower"

A little girl carrying a flower basket walked up to Michal, showed her rosy face, raised her head and said to him: "Uncle, buy a flower."

Seeing how cute the little girl was, Michal smiled slightly and said, "How much does it cost?"

"A rose costs only 200 Baileys," the little girl said happily.

Michal took out Bailey from his pocket and said, "I want one."

"Okay, sir"

Just when the little girl was about to hand the rose to Michal, another voice sounded: "Stop"

Immediately afterwards, a figure ran over and knocked the little girl to the ground from the side. The flower basket she was carrying also fell to the ground, with more than a dozen flowers inside scattered out.

The little girl ignored her scratched hands and quickly picked up the flowers on the ground, blowing off the dust. When she saw the flowers with petals missing, tears welled up in her eyes, but she still pursed her lips to prevent herself from crying. come out.

Such a scene made Michal very angry. He was about to teach the figure a lesson, but his raised hand stopped in mid-air because the "bad guy" was also a child.

The little boy was about seven or eight years old. He was wearing a woolen hat and was as angry as an angry bull. He glared at the fallen little girl and said, "This is our territory. You can't sell flowers here." "

While he was talking, four or five more children ran over and stood behind the little boy.

"Yes, I'm sorry," the little girl whispered.

"You keep coming here to sell flowers, and our flowers can't be sold anymore." The little boy said angrily.

"I'm sorry," the little girl said, lowering her head.

"What's the use of being sorry"

The little boy suddenly slapped the flowers from the little girl's hand, stepped on them hard, raised his arms fiercely and said, "Next time you come here to sell flowers, I will beat you up."

The little girl looked at the crushed flowers, pursed her lips, and had tears in her eyes.

Seeing her like this, the little boy lost his temper and said, "It's not like your family doesn't have money. Your sister also works for Mr. Arkham. Look, what you're wearing is much more expensive than these flowers. You come here." When selling flowers, if all the customers buy your flowers, it will take us longer to sell out the flowers, so you are not allowed to come over, do you hear me?"

"I know, I know," the little girl said weakly.

After the little boy and the others dispersed, the little girl picked up the flowers from the ground and put them back into the basket. Finally, she held the crushed flower and sadly wiped her tears with her sleeves.

Michal stepped forward and took the flower from her hand. The little girl was stunned for a moment.

"This is the flower you sold me," Michal said with a smile.

“What a beautiful flower”

"Well, sir, let me change one for you." The little girl glanced at the little boy who was staring at her not far away, took out a intact flower from the flower basket, handed it to Michal, and said loudly: "No Sell ​​it and I’ll give it to you”

"No, I like this one."

Michal blew the dust off the petals, pinched a small cluster, put it in his chest pocket, and said to the little girl: "Does it look good?"

"It's beautiful, thank you, sir." The little girl wiped away her tears and showed a smile.

After saying that, the little girl turned to leave. Her foot stumbled and she fell to the ground again. Michal stepped forward to help her up.

"Is everything okay?"

The little girl quickly said: "It's okay"

Michal frowned and lowered his head to see that the little girl's knee was broken and bleeding. He tore open his sleeve and said, "I'll learn how to treat wounds and bandage them for you. Where are your adults? If it's nearby, I can take you back."

The little girl was about to speak when she heard another voice: "Don't listen to him. Adults are the best at lying to children. He will coax you away and sell you to human traffickers."

The little boy came over and stared at Michal with a wary expression. He stood next to the little girl, looked at the wound on her knee, and said guiltily: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. Don't listen to this kind of person, little girl." My child, you can’t just follow others, and you can’t tell strangers where you live that I’ve asked them to find people from the security team. When the people from the security team arrive, ask them to take you back.”
