Justice is never absent

Chapter 179
"White!"

"Haha! I won again!!"

"Oh, it seems that my luck is very bad today." Yixiao patted his forehead and said distressedly.

Compared with the previous few days, today's Yixiao's luck is unbelievably poor. At the beginning, other gamblers still habitually bet with Yixiao, but after losing several hands in a row, they found something was wrong.

It is justifiable to lose a few hands, after all, not everyone can guarantee that they can win a few hands.

But if you lose like this, there is obviously a problem.

So most of the customers gave up betting with Yixiao and started playing their own.

Not long after, the gamblers were surprised to find that Yixiao had never won a hand today, and those gamblers who had been betting on the opposite side of Yixiao won a lot of money.

So there is the current situation.

"Uncle Yixiao, didn't you win all the time a few days ago?" Xiunan, who was standing next to Yixiao, saw that Yixiao's chips were almost lost before he opened his mouth.

Is the contrast too great?From a character like a gambler to a poor ghost possessed by an unlucky ghost in an instant.

"It's such a pity. Could it be that I used up all my luck before?" Yixiao said with a smile. It's about enjoying the fun of gambling.

"Then I'll bet this time." Yi Xiao just picked up the remaining chips and wanted to place a bet, but suddenly stopped.

While the gamblers were waiting anxiously for Yixiao to bet, Yixiao regretfully put down his chips and said to Xiunan, "It's a pity that some bad customers have come to your door."

Evil guest?Xiunan instantly understood what he wanted to express with a smile, and when he opened up his knowledgeable domineering aura, he found a cannonball flying towards the caravan.

The shell did not hit the ship, but exploded on the sea surface not far in front of the fleet, setting off a large amount of sea water.

However, Xiunan's ship was at the back of the fleet, and the environment here was relatively noisy, so the explosion was not heard by others.

"Are you going?" Xiu Nan got up and asked.

"It's all lost anyway, so let's go out and have a look." Yixiao threw all the remaining chips on the black position, then got up, picked up the stick knife and fumbled away together.

When Xiunan and Yixiao walked onto the deck, the sailors on the merchant ship just learned that there were pirates coming, and they were panicking to adjust the position of the ship and load the cannons.

"I didn't expect that there would be pirates attacking such a fleet." Xiunan glanced at the merchant ship that was already firing ahead and sighed.

The combined force of these merchant ships is much stronger than those pirates, and the cannons on board are relatively advanced.

Ordinary pirates would be sunk by cannons if they couldn't even get close to such a caravan.

But obviously the pirate group that came to the door was prepared, and the shells fired from the cannon on the merchant ship were blown up out of thin air before they approached the pirate ship.

"Brother, can you see the Pirate Flag you're dealing with?" A smile on the side asked, although his knowledge and domineering look is very powerful, but he can't perceive the pattern on the Pirate Flag.

"I don't know what kind of pirate group it is, but the skull on their pirate flag has four long spikes instead of a chin." Xiunan said after glancing at the pirate flag he was dealing with.

"Is that skull surrounded by a pattern?" After hearing Xiu Nan's description, he smiled and frowned.

"Yes."

"Why did they come here?" Xiunan's answer made Yixiao confirm the identity of the pirate group ahead.

"Uncle Yixiao, do you know this pirate group?" Xiunan asked when he saw Yixiao's puzzled look.

"If I'm not mistaken, they are the Eight Treasures Navy.

They are a unit of the official pirate force of the Kingdom of Flowers. " replied with a smile.

"There are also official pirates?" Xiunan was shocked by the answer with a smile. Besides Shichibukai, there are officially recognized pirates?

"Of course the Kingdom of Flowers will not admit it, but what the Eight Treasures Navy did before is indeed a bunch of pirates.

But a long time ago, they stopped appearing to rob merchant ships. Could it be that something happened when they suddenly appeared here this time? "This is exactly where Xiaoxiao is puzzled. He has also heard of the Eight Treasures Navy. He has always made money by extorting tolls from merchant ships, so why has it been a long time since he heard that the Eight Treasures Navy will appear again? it's here?

"Huh? The gunfire stopped, I'll go and have a look first." Yixiao suddenly found that the constant explosions had suddenly stopped, thinking that something had happened to the merchant ship at the front, he hurriedly stepped on a piece of wood and flew forward. .

Seeing Xiu Nan who left with a smile, he shrugged and flew over.

"I didn't expect you, little brother, to be a devil fruit capable user." Xiu Nan, who sensed that he was flying towards him from behind, said with a smile.

"But you still have to be careful, the Eight Treasures Navy is not an ordinary pirate group."

Yixiao's reminder made Xiunan remember it in his heart, and it is definitely not something good that can make Yixiao take it seriously.

"I'm Lao Cai from the Eight Treasures Navy. Are you the leader of this fleet?" On the leading merchant ship, a big man wearing only a green cloak on his upper body and a black number 13 printed on his left waist faced him. Mondy, the head of the caravan, said.

Originally, Monty was already desperate when he saw that the artillery he usually relied on could not stop these pirates, especially when he saw that the person who jumped on the merchant ship was the No. 13 pillar of the Eight Treasures Navy, Lao Cai, and basically gave up resistance.

He didn't think his subordinates could stop the prestigious Eight Treasures Navy.

Fortunately, Lao Cai came up and didn't do anything directly.

"I don't know what's the reason for Mr. Cai's visit this time?" Monty replied in a cold sweat.

"It's very simple. The purpose of my coming this time is the devil fruit in your hand. As long as you are willing to give it to me, then all of you can leave safely." Lao Cai went straight to the point and asked Monty for the fruit Carved fruit.

"This..." Monty was startled. He didn't expect that the news of this devil fruit would be leaked and attract such an extraordinary person.

But then he breathed a sigh of relief, because it seemed that Lao Cai only wanted to get the devil fruit. Although the devil fruit was very precious, Meng Di was still very clear about its importance compared with life.

Besides, even if you don't want to give it, you will just lose your life in vain. It is very kind of Lao Cai to just ask for the devil fruit.

If you meet someone else, you probably don't mind looting the caravan while getting the devil fruit.

"You don't want to?" Seeing that Monty didn't answer his words, Lao Cai clenched the naginata in his hand, intending to get it by himself.

"No! Master Lao Cai, I'll go get your devil fruit right away." Meng Di hurriedly explained, and then ran back to his room to take out the box containing the devil fruit and hand it to Lao Cai hands.

"Very good." Lao Cai opened the box in his hand and said with satisfaction after looking at the pattern of the devil fruit inside. This devil fruit is indeed the engraved fruit they wanted.

"Then I still need to deal with a brigade in your fleet. Well, he's here, so it doesn't seem like I'll need to look for it." Lao Cai spotted one of the two people flying over at a glance. It was the person I was looking for.

　Thanks to 'Black Lotus Baihe' for the reward.
