Pirate: My saber is a shining single scabbard

After Hughes answered the phone, the voice of the landlady came from inside.

"Brother Hughes, the information you asked me to collect on Lafitte has come to fruition."

Hughes quickly asked: "How is it?"

Ed on the side became serious when he heard Lafitte's name.

The landlady continued: "Lafitte showed up in Nara Island and there is no sign of leaving at the moment."

"And he was accompanied by a very arrogant teenager."

"After analyzing his whereabouts during this period, we discovered something unexpected."

"On the three islands he and the boy visited, sporadic mummies appeared during their stay."

"Because there are not many victims, these news are only circulated on the island. We only found out after we went to investigate specifically."

"As for the rest, you can think about it yourself."

"Thank you."

Hughes thanked him sincerely. The news helped him a lot.

After hanging up, Hughes' face instantly turned serious.

From this point of view, they were responsible for the Orleans massacre, and whether intentionally or unintentionally, the blame was placed on him.

Think for a moment...

Hughes stood up and looked at Ed, who had an equally solemn expression.

"Let's go and end things with Lafitte!"

Ed nodded, he had been waiting for this moment for too long.

While walking, Hughes remembered his last confrontation with Lafitte.

At that time, they couldn't do anything to each other, and even he was still the one at a slight disadvantage.

Now that he has been promoted to a swordsman, his double scabbards have also improved a step further. The combined strength of the two has been qualitatively improved compared to that time.

If he faced Lafitte again, he would definitely be able to completely overwhelm him.

The only thing he was worried about was that Lafitte would immediately use his flying ability to escape when he saw a bad opportunity.

He also discussed this with Ed, and each prepared a response plan.

After the evolution of the double scabbard, although the two swords have a symbiotic relationship, each has an independent consciousness and communicates with each other telepathically.

He had already tried it, flying on one of the great swords and fighting in a one-sword style.

Because the consciousness of the two swords is independent, flying and fighting do not affect each other.

Although this mode has just begun to be practiced, the proficiency is not enough, and the flexibility cannot be compared with Lafitte, but it will not be completely helpless with its flying ability.

In addition to him, Ed also prepared a response method, and he also had some understanding.

but...

Due to the masochistic nature of the Chain Fruit, this method may cause considerable harm to oneself.

Although he expressed concerns, Ed was too obsessed with Lafitte, and he would definitely do anything to settle the grudge.

With this in mind, the two of them got on the boat and headed for Nara Island.

......

after one day.

Nara Island.

In a certain tavern, there was a buzz of people, and scenes of fist fights were staged from time to time.

"Did you hear that several corpses with their blood sucked out appeared on the island yesterday?"

"Really or not, is Baker Hughes on this island?"

"Tsk tsk...a reward of 5400 million yuan, how many years has it been since such a character appeared in the Western Sea?"

"If I can get his head and find a way to exchange it for a bounty, then I won't have to worry about it in this life!"

"Just you?" The drinking companion at the same table said scornfully: "The Blood Sword is standing in front of you. It would be great if you don't make your legs weak with fear!"

"How is that possible? Although the Blood Sword is powerful, I am not someone to be trifled with!"

"Come on, just blow it."

"..."

boom!

Amidst the commotion, the door of the tavern was suddenly pushed open, and two young men walked in.

Some of the drinkers who saw the visitor's face immediately sat upright and remained silent.

Others also noticed something was wrong and became silent one after another. Only a few drunken and unresponsive pirates were still talking nonsense.

the other side.

As soon as Hughes walked in, the smell of alcohol and the noise that penetrated his eardrums made him frown.

Compared to this noisy pub, he would rather go to a quiet bar like Secret Garden.

But in order to find out Lafitte's whereabouts, I had to come to a tavern where information circulates quickly.

Hughes scanned the hall, found two empty seats, and took steps, followed closely by Ed.

After getting closer, Hughes' expression suddenly became strange.

He had long noticed that their presence made the tavern quiet.

But someone else was yelling loudly next to the target seat.

He shouted that I am not afraid of the blood sword. If he appears in front of me, I must make him look good...

The pirate was so drunk that he was unaware of the crazy glances from his drinking buddies around him.

The drinking buddy next to me was so anxious that he almost cried. You must fight to death so that I don’t get hurt!

While these people were cursing, they were also praying to the two killing gods not to get angry, and were secretly preparing to run away.

After Hughes sat down calmly, the drinkers in the restaurant breathed a sigh of relief quietly, but still did not dare to speak loudly, and the atmosphere was a bit depressing.

No matter how slow the arrogant pirate was, he discovered Hughes and Ed who were sitting at the same table with him.

He remembered the awesome performance he had boasted earlier, and his body trembled slightly, and cold sweat continued to break out on his forehead.

"me..."

Hughes waved his hand and interrupted directly: "I asked you a few questions, and the answers satisfy me. I'll pretend I didn't hear those words before."

"Please speak."

"Is Devil Sheriff Lafitte on this island?"

"Lafitte?" The pirate responded quickly: "I heard that he appeared on the island."

The pirate remembered something, looked around, then pointed at a person and said loudly: "That's him!"

"That's what he said about Lafitte just now!"

The pirate who was pointed at suddenly changed his expression and cursed crazily in his heart.

After catching Hughes's gaze, the pirate quickly told what he knew without reservation.

After revealing it, Hughes learned that Lafitte had indeed appeared on the island and killed several people yesterday.

What made him regretful was that he did not have the specific whereabouts and location of the other party.

Hughes asked another question.

"Are there any lively activities or big events on the island in the next few days?"

"Things like auctions and fighting events can attract a large number of people."

If there were such activities and events, Lafitte's character would probably join in the fun and kill.

If not, he would create a big event himself to attract Lafitte.

The pirate heard Hughes' question, thought for a while, and replied:

"To talk about exciting events, the Iron Claw Pirates will be recruiting people on the west coast tomorrow."

"Oh? Tell me in detail."

After learning the details, Hughes didn't expect that the recruitment of people for the Iron Claw Pirates had something to do with him.

The Iron Claw Pirates are famous for their numbers and are known as the largest pirate group in the Western Sea.

When Major General Burke was alive, he suppressed many pirate groups so that they did not dare to stand out too much. The Iron Claw Pirates were one of them.

After Burke was killed by him, the Iron Claw Pirates began to frequently plunder and cause chaos, but were finally defeated by a warship led by an unfamiliar-looking navy man.

The Iron Claw Pirates were severely damaged and had to recruit people to replenish the number of pirates.

The time and place for recruitment will be tomorrow's west coast of Nara Island.

He had a hunch that Lafitte would definitely appear at the recruitment site of the Iron Claw Pirates tomorrow.

"Lafitte, you absolutely can't run away this time!"
