Great Onmyoji of Pirates

At the gaming table below the casino, Ace, wearing an orange cowboy hat, was observing the gamblers who were gambling. He got the news that there was someone here who knew about Blackbeard.

Just when Ace was at a loss and didn't know where to start, a man called him from behind.

"Hey, do you want to have a bet with me?"

Ace turned around, and the person who stopped Ace was Bobby.

Bobby, who came to the casino to look for Franky, found that the atmosphere here was peaceful and there was no sign of a fight. When he came in, Franky was indeed here, but no one was looking for trouble for him.

Crocodile probably didn't know Franky, but Bobby had already thought of the worst-case scenario before he came. Franky, who was so angry after losing that he was really wearing nothing but his underpants, might cause a scene in the casino. After all, what he did in the Capital of Seven Waters was the same as robbery.

Then he was hung up by Crocodile and beaten, but Bobby did not expect that Franky actually won, and not just once. Bobby, who came a little later than Franky, looked at Franky silently. The chips in hand soared from a face value of 1000 beli to a face value of [-] million beli.

This was something Bobby never expected.

Since Franky was happily winning, Bobby didn't intend to disturb him. He looked around the casino and soon saw an interested person.

"Fire Fist Ace, why is he here?"

Bobby recognized Ace at a glance. Whether it was the iconic badge hat, the red bead necklace around his neck, or the tattoo of the Whitebeard Pirates on his back, they were all so conspicuous.

"Hey, do you want to have a bet with me?" Bobby walked up behind Ace and called him.

Ace slowly turned around, with a smile on his freckled face: "No, I'm here to find someone."

After saying that, I wanted to turn around and leave.

"Blackbeard, right?" Bobby said

Ace, who had just raised his legs to leave, immediately stopped and turned to look at Bobby.

"How did you know I was looking for Blackbeard?"

"How I know is not important. What is important is that I know where he is, and you want to know about Blackbeard. How about it? Make a bet with me, and I will tell you if you win."

Blackbeard should be in Banaro Island now, Bobby was sure of this, unless Blackbeard was also affected by Bobby's little butterfly.

Ace, whose only purpose was to find Blackbeard, who betrayed the pirates, agreed.

"Okay, I'll make a bet with you. What's the bet on?"

"Study!"

"it is good!"

Bobby found an empty gaming table and the croupier dealt the cards.

"We each have 1000 beli, and the minimum bet is [-] beri. If we win all the opponent's chips, we will win the bet."

Ace, who was squatting on the bench opposite, smiled and said nothing, and stretched out his hand to signal the dealer to start dealing the cards.

In the first round, Bobby’s hole card was 10 hearts, the first card on the table was also 10, and 10 clubs.

Betting session

"Little goblin! Little goblin!" Bobby called the little goblin in his heart.

The little goblin flew out and spun around in a circle and said impatiently: "What are you doing!"

"Fly to the other side and help me see what that person's trump card is." Bobby said to the little goblin.

"Refuse!" The little goblin refused simply and neatly.

"Oh, you're the best, help me." Bobby asked the little goblin with a shy face.

"Refuse, don't come to me unless you have something important to do in the future." After saying this, the little goblin wanted to fly back to Bobby's body.

"You help win this person, and I will do one thing for you, anything!"

"Oh?" The little goblin seemed to be interested.

"Is anything really possible?" The little elf flapped his wings rapidly, seeming a little excited.

"Yeah! Anything is fine."

"Okay, I'll help you this time."

From Bobby's perspective, the little goblin flew over to check Ace's trump card.

The cards that Bobby can see on the scene are 9 of spades, 10 of clubs, and q of clubs.

The cards on Esmin's face are 8 of diamonds, 10 of diamonds, and j of diamonds.

The minimum bet is 1000, and Ace, who goes first, raises the minimum bet every time.

Bobby followed Ace and placed the minimum bet. Now both of them have 3000 chips.

The dealer dealt the cards again, and Bobby's last card was the ace of hearts, while Ace's was the q of diamonds.

Such obvious cards are Bobby's biggest ace, the ace, and Ace's single q, a diamond.

And adding the hole cards, Bobby's biggest pair was 10, but Ace didn't know how much it was.

Now it’s up to the goblin.

The little goblin who flew back looked a little confused.

"Little goblin! What's his trump card!"

Bobby was extremely anxious. From Bobby's perspective, the little goblin flew over as early as the dealer dealt the first card. He lay on Ace's hole card and looked at it for a long time. He only became confused during the final betting session. Fly back.

"I don't know." The little elf pouted, without his usual domineering look.

"What? I see you've already kissed his trump card, and you're telling me you don't know?"

"I really don't know." The little elf looked a little aggrieved.

The croupier next to him had already started urging Bobby to place a bet.

Bobby signaled the dealer to wait a moment, calmed down his uncomfortable mood, and said angrily to the little goblin: "So why don't you know? Can you tell me?"

"I don't recognize the pattern on his scrap of paper."

Now Bobby understood that the elf didn't know playing cards.

"Don't you recognize the numbers either?"

"do not know."

Bobby laughed angrily: "It turns out that my little goblin is illiterate. I didn't expect this."

"Since you don't know him, look at the cards in my hand. Do they have the same pattern as his hole card?" Bobby couldn't let this useless little elf look at whether his card was the same as Ace's hole card.

The elf looked carefully at all of Bobby's cards and replied, "No."

"Are you sure? The patterns are not the same?"

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure."

Since the little goblin said that he didn’t have the same cards as Bobby’s hand, Ace’s trump cards were not q, 10, 9, or a.

It could be k or 8.

In this case, Ace's hand is either a K, in which case all cards are loose, and the maximum is K, or it is an 8, in which case the maximum is only a pair of 8.

Since Max was the same as himself, Bobby made a bet.

He stretched out his hand to signal the dealer to listen.

"Listen up, I'll bet 6000!"

Bobby said six thousand with the momentum of 6000 million.

Six thousand plus three thousand equals nine thousand. If he loses this time, he will only have one thousand chips left.

"I'll follow." Ace on the opposite side did not hide his joy at all.

When Bobby saw this, he immediately felt something was wrong.

"Open the cards!"

Bobby is 9 of spades, 10 of clubs, q of clubs, 10 of hearts, a of hearts, and the largest is a pair of 10s.

And Ace's trump card turned out to be the 9 of Diamonds!8 of diamonds, 9 of diamonds, 10 of diamonds, j of diamonds, a of diamonds, a straight flush! .

A pair of 10s and a straight flush.

Bobby watched Ace take away his chips. Bobby was very angry. What if he lost if he wasn't angry? If he lost, he would tell Ace the news, but he was fooled by the goblin and called out a pair of 10. After losing the momentum of the flush, now looking at the contemptuous look in the beautiful dealer's eyes next to him, Bobby felt very uncomfortable.

"You lied to me!" Bobby shouted to the little goblin in his heart.
