On the gloomy sea, seven large mast merchant ships crossed the strait, and the flag of the pale blue crystal moon swayed in the sky. This is the symbol of Thiago Chamber of Commerce.

The Tiago Chamber of Commerce fleet departed from the first half of the Grand Line, sailed day and night on the sea for more than half a month, and arrived at the corner of East Blue.

The ship turned, waves rippled on the sea, the huge sails turned, and the fleet spread out laterally, revealing some small and shabby merchant ships that followed.

There are not many small merchant ships. They follow the Thiago merchant ship far away, like a group of hyenas behind the lions.

On Tiago’s main ship, there is a lounge chair on the spacious and smooth deck. The thin man lies on it, and the oncoming sea breeze blows the black hair on his head, revealing a pair The long and narrow eye contour, the crow’s feet at the corners of the eyes drooping and fine, coupled with the protruding cheekbones of the high forehead, makes his dark pupils seem to be covered by shadows, as dark and gloomy as the silent sea in front of him.

Tunas, the leader of Thiago’s East Blue caravan.

“The noses of those hyenas are really good. It’s unlucky to find a way to keep up every time.” The black complexion and arrogant man complained with a weird hook in his hands.

He is Tunas’ deputy and bodyguard, Lothar the Black Scorpion.

“Not all merchants have the courage to cross the Sea Territory, especially those behind the guys with a broken ship. They are a group of hyenas that have blocked their lives.” Tunas shook his hand. Red wine glass, gloomily said: “Don’t underestimate them, although until now, they are very honest, they only dare to follow Thiago Chamber of Commerce’s butt, as long as we give a little bit of leftovers. , They will make a look of begging for mercy; but, once we are injured and show our weakness and expose our weak side, they will come up without the slightest hesitation, and fiercely bite from Tiago’s body. Lumps of flesh and blood, even cruelly tore us into pieces, and eat them.”

“In that case, why didn’t we kill them?” Black Scorpion Lothar raised his eyebrows and asked.

“no no no, that’s too low-level. Merchants chasing profits are like crazy dogs looking for food. Kill them, and there will be the next batch. Killing is not clean.” Tunas He drank the red wine in one sip, and the remaining wine stains on the corners of his mouth made his thin lips look as red as blood: “The correct way is to put them under the eyelids and throw some bones from time to time for them to snatch wildly. You die and we live, and we just need to look at it coldly to judge who is the most unstable guy inside, and then find a chance to send him to be with the sea, and give a little charity, so that the rest of the guys can rest in peace. Come down and understand who is the owner of the leash.”

He got up and looked at the scattered merchant ships on the sea in the distance. His cold eyes gradually focused on a black ship near the north. The red mast.

The texture of the black red bottom plate and the sharp and long exaggerated shape make this 25-meter-long hull look like a black sea shark, with its sharp fins split across the sea.

A sailor in a short vest on the ship controls the oars, and follows the instructions of a young man with a fleece on his mouth and gold glasses: “Don’t lean too close. Too close will cause Tiago Chamber of Commerce to be bored, so we will keep this distance.”

Young men are about 25 years old, the lines of the face are cold and hard, and the camouflage of the gold wire glasses frame is also Can’t hide the sharp gaze of this man, like a wolf or eagle, which is a pair of wild ambition eyes.

There has never been a lack of ambitious people in the sea, and Lombard is particularly radical among them. He comes from a small country in East Blue, and his family runs a winery workshop business. The first two In 2009, he was closed down because the king issued a prohibition on alcohol. His father became depressed and soon left.

After the funeral, he packaged the winery and land for auction at a low price without the slightest hesitation. It can be said that he was bankrupt and bought a sea ship, recruited a few sailors, and dared to set sail. , Go to the sea to beg for food.

With his extraordinary courage and clever mind, he even escaped from Pirate’s hands several times. Lombard accumulated some family property, but he did not change his gambler nature at all. His wealth transformed his own clippers, armed his own sailors, and then didn’t know where to find the news. With his own clippers, he dared to plunge into the group of unfamiliar small businessmen. After several times, he was even smoothed down. Accepted, followed them to pick up food at the back of Tiago Chamber of Commerce.

However, Lombard is different from those cold-hearted merchant ships. His ambition is much more than that. Although he disguises well, he cannot hide from Tunas’s fire-eyed spirit. gold.

A hungry wolf is mixed in a group of greedy hyenas. They are cold-blooded beasts, but the wolf never begs for food. It has always used sharp fangs to brutally cut the throat of its prey. Slowly enjoy a hearty meal.

“We have followed behind our ass and ran three times. Tell me, do you remember the course?” Lombard asked the Navigator, who held the Telescope to the side and the compass pointer in his hand.

Different from the volatile magnetic climate environment of the Grand Line, East Blue is relatively calm, but it also means that the recording pointer is invalid. The advantage is that there is no headache and the unpredictable storm. The disadvantage is that the drawing of the route is only Rely on the knowledge in Navigator’s mind to draw a little bit on the chart.

There are no so-called road signs on the sea, especially the relatively long route, which is far from being accurately drawn by one or two runs.

“I have drawn most of it, but I am afraid that I cannot do it if I want a precise route. Our three routes are not exactly the same. The first half is okay, and the more you get to the second half, the more The nautical chart drawn closer to Quarry Town is more chaotic.” Navigator grabbed the pen in his hand and struggled with the wording. The first two times he was not sure where the problem was, but this is the third time. There is already doubt in my heart, “Tiago’s merchant ship is deliberately leading us around the circle.”

“hehe ~” Lombard sneered, as if not at all, I felt strange, just a faint taunted: “Tsk tsk, what a Thiago Chamber of Commerce, it’s really stubborn.”

“What do you think we are going to do?”

“Or go a few more times, I We can still figure out the real route; or when we return, we leave the route opened by Thiago and return on our own. It is nothing more than spending some time and energy. I can reopen an established route back to the Grand Line.”

Lombard groaned for a while. He took off the frame and kneaded his sour eyelids: “It seems that we need to stay longer in Quarry Town for fear that Thiago Chamber of Commerce is unwilling. Well… I have to unite those greedy guys.”
