One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House.

Chapter 588 Secret Intelligence
"A guy with shifty eyes? And a guy with many legs?"

Boss Pieck frowned, turned around and looked around, then looked at Shanks and Buggy in front of him, and did not choose to answer directly, but said the other way around.

"May I ask who you two are and what you are looking for this guy for?"

"Don't worry, I'm just asking for our friends, our friends from the Sea King Army. It's not convenient for them to come in."

Shanks has also regained his shrewdness at this moment, and his voice is not loud, especially when he talks about the Sea King Army, he speaks even softer. If Boss Pieck had not leaned forward, he probably would not have heard what Shanks said at all. After listening to Shanks' words, Boss Pieck looked at Shanks and Buggy carefully, and suddenly, Boss Pieck felt a flash of inspiration in his mind.

"You two, are you the pirates who came back with that boy Tiger?"

Boss Pique said in a low voice.

"It seems that the two of us are not insignificantly famous, Shanks."

After hearing what Boss Pieck said, Buggy smiled at Shanks and said.

“Hahaha! It’s so rare that someone can help me improve my cocktail making. Come on, both of you. I want to see if you two have the ability to do it. Follow me!”

After receiving a positive response from Buggy, Boss Pike's voice suddenly became much louder. He then reached out and picked up a few bottles of wine and walked into a small room. His words also attracted the attention of the people around him. Boss Pike was a very good-tempered person and would hardly get angry unless you said his wine was not good. How dare these two humans say that they could improve Boss Pike's wine? Everyone looked like they were watching a good show. They really wanted to see how the two looked after being defeated by Boss Pike. Unfortunately, Boss Pike was too kind and even took the two into a room alone to save their face.

"Please take a seat, both of you. Don't worry, this is where I usually think about cocktails. No one can come in without my permission."

Boss Pique said while sitting in the main seat.

"You really trust us, Boss Pique."

Shanks sat down without any guard, leaning carelessly on the small bar. Yes, there was a bar in this small room, but compared to the one outside, this bar was not only small, but also very old, and many parts were worn out and tattered.

"I don't trust you guys, I trust Tiger. I watched him grow up. Since he trusts you guys, I will try to trust you too. I hope you won't let me down."

Boss Pique walked to the back of the small bar and gently stroked the dilapidated bar with his hand. This small bar was the bar of the Drunken Fish Bar in the past, and it was a witness to the chaotic period of Fishman Street. Although it was very dilapidated, Tiger, Aaron, and Jinbe, they all used to rest on this bar after getting drunk.

"Don't worry, we won't let you down. Although we are pirates, we are definitely not those weird guys."

Bucky gave Boss Pique a thumbs up and said.

"Okay, now let's get down to business. I think I've actually seen that fellow with shifty eyes you guys mentioned. Recently, a man came to our store. He seems to have recently moved to the apartment building next door. I don't know his name, but he does look weird, with small eyes and whiskers like a sea cat. He also seems to have four legs."

Boss Pique rubbed his chin and said.

"It sounds like this is indeed the person we are looking for, but if it is just this little thing, there is no need to come here to tell it, right?"

Shanks asked somewhat curiously.

"No, there are more strangers in the recent Fishman Street. They are not people from other blocks in Fishman Island. I can tell the temperament of these people. They are definitely not normal people. Even the people in the past Fishman Street did not have such a dark feeling. It's like, it's like, how to put it, right, they are no different from the pirates who burned, killed and looted that I have seen in the past, and they also make people feel a little perverted."

Boss Pique leaned against the equally old wine cabinet behind him, took a sip of wine, and said with a frown. "Perverted feeling?"

Buggy and Shanks looked at each other and suddenly remembered that when they were in Water Seven, Mr. Tom's student, the guy named Carter Fram, forgot to wear pants every day and walked around as if nothing had happened. Of course, they also knew that the pervert that Boss Pike was talking about was definitely different from Fram.

"Yes, it's like that, that kind of, how to put it? By the way, have you ever seen a perverted murderer?"

Boss Pique thought about it and finally came up with an adjective.

"I guess I have seen him, but that guy is more like a cannibal than a psychopathic murderer."

Shanks and Buggy looked at each other and remembered the time when they had just sailed independently and captured a ship. At that time, they met a guy on a small island. He seemed friendly on the surface, but it all ended when that guy lifted the lid of the pot. After all, the thing in the pot was a complete person. The two almost vomited their stomachs at the time. After that, the guy licked his lips and showed a mouthful of yellow teeth. Now it is a psychological shadow for both of them.

"That's about the same. I don't know what you saw, but the group of people I found gave me the same feeling as that guy when I first saw an execution. The death penalty is rare in Fishman Island. Generally speaking, the heaviest punishment is life imprisonment. But that guy at the time was sentenced to death as an exception because what he did was so outrageous. I will never forget the look in his eyes and expression on the gallows. These people gave me a similar feeling. They are not as crazy, but equally perverted. They are also somewhat similar to those slave traders."

Boss Pique's last words immediately made the two men's eyes light up. Slave traders? They were familiar with this thing! When they were in the Sabaody Archipelago, they killed a lot of them.

"In other words, those guys might be slave traders who kidnapped fellow fishmen or mermen?"

Shanks asked.

"Well, it's possible. I really didn't think of it before. Who knows, there were bastards in Fishman Street who colluded with those bastards in the past. As for the results of being caught, needless to say, they were usually cut into pieces and fed to sea beasts. Since the transformation of Fishman Street, a large number of such people were caught. I almost forgot the existence of such people."

Boss Pike was also a little doubtful at this moment. As a veteran figure in Fishman Street, he, like Old Man Ben did back then, took care of everyone in Fishman Street as much as possible. However, for these scum among scum, even Boss Pike and Old Man Ben would not have the slightest sympathy for them.

"That might be a new trick of the slave traders. They can no longer come to Fishman Island, but they can cooperate with the scum among the fishmen or mermaids and use them to abduct the locals out of Fishman Island."

Bucky said after thinking about it now.

"Yes, yes, that's most likely the case. Come on, Bucky, let's go find Tiger!"

Shanks jumped up in a hurry, grabbed Buggy's hand and prepared to walk out.

"Stop it you idiot! Sorry Boss Peak, this guy is a moron, can you tell me where else you saw these guys? Besides the one in the apartment building next door."

Buggy tried his best to hold Shanks back to prevent him from going crazy, and at the same time turned around and asked Boss Pieck.

"I don't know much, but I do know a few, they are guys who appeared recently, two are in the apartment building..."

Boss Pike pointed his fingers and told the positions of seven people in total. Of course, Boss Pike also said that the positions of these seven people were just what he saw, and it did not mean that they were actually there, but this had already provided great help to Shanks and Buggy.

After Buggy and Shanks thanked them profusely, they were grabbed by the collars by Boss Pik and thrown out of the small room, while Boss Pik did not forget to shout:
"Don't brag if you don't have the ability in the future!"

"Bang!" As the door closed, the people in the bar who were waiting to watch the show suddenly burst into laughter, while Shanks and Buggy left "dejectedly" with smiles on their faces.
