Behind the scenes of One Piece

Change first and then change.

=================

In the tavern not far from the pier, Blackbeard and Old Charlie were already sitting at the same table and started talking.

"Are you Old Charlie? I heard that you have been operating in this Magic Valley Town for decades. Is there anything you don't know about?" Blackbeard took a sip of rum and asked carelessly.

Old Charlie nodded confidently: "Exactly, coming here and cooperating with me is the most cost-effective deal."

"Well, let me ask you, is there anyone in this town with a bounty of over [-] million?"

"The bounty is over [-] million?"

Old Charlie was stunned for a moment: "There are not many people like this... Do you want to recruit a crew? I know several powerful pirates..."

Blackbeard shook his head: "No, strength doesn't matter, I just want to find someone with a bounty of over [-] million!"

Old Charlie did not answer immediately, but frowned and thought for a while: Pirates with a bounty of over [-] million are rare in Magic Valley Town, but this place is known as a pirate paradise, and there are many pirates coming and going. If you search patiently, you can always encounter it. Then one or two.

Besides, finding someone was not his purpose in the first place.What he wants is to sign a contract of sale with this black beard.

Thinking of this, he nodded and said: "There have been no pirates with a bounty of over [-] million on the island recently, but according to my experience, as long as you wait patiently, no more than a month at most, there will always be a big pirate passing by!"

"Well, help me find someone. If I find him, I'll give you 20 beli as a reward!" Blackbeard said.

Compared with the target net worth of 20 million Baileys, [-] Baileys is really not much, but that is not what old Charlie cares about.

He quickly took out two contracts from his body and handed one to Blackbeard: "I am a person who likes things to be written clearly in black and white. Take a look at this contract for finding someone. If you have no problem, put your fingerprint on it."

Blackbeard picked up the contract and glanced at it, making sure that it contained the terms of finding someone for him, and then he quickly pressed his fingerprints.

Old Charlie pressed his fingerprints on another contract and handed it to him: "Two copies, you also press one on this one."

Blackbeard also pressed the button.

The moment Old Charlie across from him saw his finger pressing down, a proud smile appeared on his face.

In fact, the content of this second contract is completely different from the first. It is a contract of sale.

When most people see two copies of a contract, they will take it for granted that the two contracts are the same, so after reading the first one, they will not take the second one seriously.

Although he took advantage of this human weakness, old Charlie did not expect that the plan would go so smoothly.

So after the conspiracy succeeded, he couldn't bear it for a moment and burst into laughter immediately.

After laughing for a while, he looked up and saw the incomprehensible expressions of Blackbeard and the others. He slapped the contract on the table, pointed at a few key lines of text and said, "You were fooled! What you just signed was a contract of sale. Now, You are already my slave!"

"What?" When Blackbeard heard this, his face was immediately filled with gloom.

As his expression changed, the air in the entire tavern suddenly solidified.

Old Charlie was startled by this momentum and regretted that he had spoken too early:

Blackbeard, and the pirates he brought with him, were all tall and tall, and they didn't look like bad guys.

If an impulsive guy punches himself to death, it will be a huge loss.

Thinking of this, he immediately stood up and hid behind the dozen pirates he had brought.

Blackbeard and the others did not take any further action, just looked at him coldly.

After a while, Van Oka couldn't help but sarcastically said: "This contract is just a piece of paper. You are not so stupid that you think a piece of paper can control us, are you?"

Old Charlie shook his head: "My contract is different. As long as you sign it, you must abide by it, otherwise Mr. Blackbeard will be counterattacked and lose his life!"

Seeing Fan Oka pick up the contract and want to tear it up, he quickly added: "Even if you tear up that piece of paper, the contract is still valid!"

Badgers, who was next to Van Oka, couldn't hold it any longer and waved his fist directly, shouting: "Old guy, how dare you plot against us? Do you want to eat my fist?"

Old Charlie saw his eagerness to try and waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, don't think about taking action against me. If you take action, you will also get backlash and lose your life!"

Blackbeard Teach finally understood at this time: "I have read the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book, and there is indeed a fruit called the Contract Fruit. Was it eaten by you?"

Phew - finally someone who knows the ropes.

Old Charlie took a long breath and nodded repeatedly: "That's right!"

Blackbeard talked about Devil Fruit, and he obviously knew the consequences. Such people are easier to control, so he was very satisfied.

Unexpectedly, just as he was relieved, the blackbeard opposite him raised his hand: "Closor - Dark Water!"

In the quiet tavern, a strong wind suddenly blew up for no reason.

The men brought by old Charlie were immediately blown away.Before he could react, he was directly sucked into Blackbeard's right hand.

"You want to make me a slave?" Blackbeard pinched old Charlie's neck with his right hand and lifted him into the air.

"Uh--you can't hurt me, otherwise the contract will backfire-" Old Charlie said with difficulty.

"Hahahaha, aren't you? I really want to give it a try!"

Blackbeard laughed, stretched out his left hand, and ripped off old Charlie's right arm!

"Ahhhhhh--"

Severe pain struck, and old Charlie fainted from the pain.

"Poison Q, stop his bleeding and wake him up."

Blackbeard looked at his bloody body and his arms that were bubbling with blood. He didn't have the slightest sympathy. Instead, he gave an order coldly.

"Hiss--" After old Charlie woke up and saw Blackbeard unharmed, he couldn't believe his eyes.

"How is it possible? Why are you safe? Hurtring me is a violation of the contract, and the backlash should happen immediately!"

Blackbeard laughed again, and laughed for several minutes before grabbing old Charlie's neck again and lifting him up: "You are a capable person, and so am I!

And my ability is to disable your ability when I grab you with this hand!

have you understood? "

After saying this, he threw old Charlie to the ground like trash.

"In ten days, find me the person with a bounty of over [-] million, or I will take your head!"

After saying these words, Blackbeard walked away with his men.

After a while, old Charlie finally managed to push himself up with one arm.

He looked bitterly at the direction where Blackbeard and the others were leaving, and infinite regret surged in his heart.

This Blackbeard is indeed the person that Whitebeard's crew and Fire Fist Ace need to capture personally!

If I want to enslave such people, I am really wishful thinking and overestimating my capabilities!

But why did I, who was always cautious, have such thoughts in the first place?
