The gourmet among pirates

With the full efforts of a large amount of funds and manpower, there are clues about the red-haired pirates.

It was finally discovered.

·······

Stettia Island is located on the west side of the East China Sea and is relatively close to the windless zone.

Because it is close to the windless zone and is often visited by sea kings, it is not safe for ships to sail in the waters near Stedia Island.

Therefore, this island does not have much communication with other islands in the East China Sea.

Fortunately, the area of ​​Stetia Island is not small, and the environment on the island is quite pleasant.

Self-sufficient, Stetia Island also supports hundreds of thousands of people.

In the past, Stratia Island had several large cities and towns that faced each other.

In these big cities, force is often used, but no one can do anything to anyone.

But then a large group of pirates took a fancy to this geomantic treasure.

Want to rule this rich and closed island by force.

Relying on powerful force and gunpowder weapons.

The pirate group quickly captured one of the towns and enslaved them. Even the lord of that town had his head cut off and hung on the city wall.

Times call for heroes. Under that turbulent situation, a man named Colin stepped forward and connected the towns on the island together to form a town federation.

Then he gathered the power of the entire island and worked together, and finally defeated that group of powerful pirates.

After the pirates were expelled, the town federation on the island did not disband, but jointly established what is now the Stetia Federation.

And that Colin became the first Grand Duke of the Stedia Federation!

But to this day.

The original Stetia Federation had long ago fallen apart.

Even the heir to the Grand Duke.

Nowadays, most of the time, he just retreats into his own castle.

And at this time.

The red-haired pirate group that Morin and the others have been searching for for a long time is located in one of the cities of the Stedia Federation.

Stetia Federation, Luminous City.

At this time, the red-haired Shanks was having a drink with the Lord of Luminous City.

Holt of Luminous City, after drinking a glass of ale boldly, raised the glass and said loudly:

"Guhahahaha, Shanks, you guy, you haven't been to Stratia Island for a long time. This time, if you don't have a drink with me, don't even think about leaving!"

"Drink, I will accompany you to the end, but Holt, don't drink for a long time before you fall unconscious again. I remember that you only drank half a barrel of wine last time..." Shanks laughed when he heard this, glanced at Holt and said jokingly.

He and Holt are also old friends.

When he had just gathered his companions and came to the East China Sea, he happened to save Holt from the mouth of a small sea king.

Shanks remembered that he had invited Holt to board the ship, but Holt, who was the only child in the family at that time, finally gave up on Shanks' ship for the sake of the responsibilities on his shoulders.

However, they are still friends.

This time entering the East China Sea, Shanks didn't want too many people to know his whereabouts.

So he took people to this closed island to replenish supplies and see his friends.

Because Holt is the Lord of Luminous City, this exclusive island.

No.

It should be said that the luminous city they were in did not exclude the red-haired pirates.

only.

Nowadays.

In addition to the red-haired pirates, this closed island has welcomed some new guests.

In the west of Stetia Island, on the largest plain on the island, there are three cities, and there are also many villages and towns under these three cities.

At this time, Mo Lin and the others were riding on the huge warship Terminus.

At this time, it was slowly sailing into Nightingale, the largest port city in the Stedia Federation!

The huge military green ship slowly approached the port here and docked in front of the horrified and shocked eyes of others near the port.

A staircase stretched down the side of the ship, and Molin, wearing a cloak, slowly walked down with the navy behind him.

As the largest port in the Stetia Federation, it is not as prosperous as imagined.

But compared to other cities on the island, it can be regarded as bustling with people.

After taking a group of people off the boat, Mo Lin stared at the street in front of him that was full of warblers and swallows, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.

"It turns out that this is the origin of the nightingale..."

The architectural style of this place resembles that of the European Middle Ages. The only eye-catching feature may be the countless nightingale shops on both sides of the street.

"Nightingale, Nightlight... From the name, it seems that this place is not far from the city where the red-haired pirate group is located. It seems that it won't be long before we can see the red-haired Shanks."

As he said that, Molin glanced helplessly at the row of people standing behind him.

Ace, Taoyao, Usopp, and even Koshiro and his daughter Kuina were among the crowd.

Originally, Mo Lin did not plan to bring this group of people here.

But after rejecting Tao Yao to no avail, for some reason Ye Guang found a lot of people behind him.

but.

It’s already here, so let’s forget it!

Just as Molin and others were about to walk out of the dock and enter the port city.

"You... are the navy?"

A man about forty or fifty years old, wearing a gray robe and a pair of deerskin boots, was galloping towards this side with a thin sword on his shoulder.

As he approached, the nearby crowd quickly dispersed to both sides, for fear of blocking the man's path forward.

Chapter 419 The situation is tense

The man quickly came to Mo Lin, looked at Mo Lin up and down, and then said:

"I am the Sheriff of Nightingale City, Harrington. The city lord has an order. In order to prevent villains from causing trouble, all ships are not allowed to carry guns and gunpowder ashore after entering Nightingale Harbor, and the navy... is no exception."

The Stetia Federation is relatively closed due to the difficulty of entry and exit.

So there is no need for the protection of the world government.

Therefore, hundreds of years have passed, and the Stetian Federation has not become a member of the World Government.

It is precisely for this reason that the Stetia Federation does not welcome large ships passing by.

Whether it’s the navy or the pirates!

In their view, these are external forces that may threaten them.

On the contrary, some merchant ships or small ships that occasionally pass by will receive a warm welcome from them.

Because...they are no threat.

While the man who claimed to be the Sheriff of Nightingale City was sizing up Molin, Molin was also observing him.

Whether it was the thin sword at his waist, the opponent's height of more than two meters, his slender and powerful body, or the thick calluses on his right hand.

They are all showing the identity of this vigilante swordsman.

Through seeing, hearing, and being domineering, Maureen easily captured Harrington's breath of life.

Compared to the dock workers and other fishermen who surrounded them, Harrington's breath of life was much stronger.

Just like the fireflies on the ground and the bright moon in the sky.

Although compared with those officers at the Navy Headquarters, they are still a little behind.

But relatively speaking, in the East China Sea, he can be considered a good player, at least much better than most of the naval officers in the East China Sea.

After sizing Harrington up for a while, Molin looked at the sheriff who came here to warn them, and said calmly: "I understand."

Although Harrington's strength is good, it is nothing to Molin and the others.

Molin came here to find red-haired Shanks, not to travel to this island.

Because of the Sheriff's words, they were told to put down their weapons. What a joke.

As if aware of Molin's thoughts, Harrington held his right hand on the hilt of the rapier and said solemnly:

"Navy...your expression tells me that you don't want to obey the city lord's orders."

Having said this, Harrington slowly pulled out the thin sword from his waist, pointed it at Molin, and shouted sternly: "In this case, then get out of our port and return to your own territory." ·····navy."

Accompanied by Harrington's sharp shout.

Members of the security team who were originally scattered around the port quickly gathered.

Picking up weapons, they gathered behind Harrington.

but.

The strength of the Stetia Federation is not strong to begin with, let alone the power controlled by a city dock sheriff after it fell apart.

When all the members were assembled, it was only a team of thirty or fifty security guards.

Not even a fraction of the naval soldiers on the deck of the Terminal.

Not to mention the scattered muskets in these people's hands that can't even be consistent in model.

Seeing this, Molin seemed to understand why these people restricted gunpowder weapons from entering the town.

"Hey!"

"I understand your concerns, but before drawing the sword, don't you look at the gap between you and me? Drawing the sword blindly will only kill you and your men."

Maureen finished.

A hint of domineering red light flashed in his eyes.

In a flash of domineering aura, Harrington and the security patrols behind him fainted in an instant.

After stunning Harrington and his men.

After asking people to tie up these people, Mo Lin did not make things difficult for them anymore.

···················

A few hours later.

Red-haired Shanks having a drinking party in the tavern.

While taking Beckman and the others back to the Red Foss.

From the corner of his eye, he happened to catch a glimpse of Mo Lin and his group walking towards the opposite side.

The fat man Lucky Lu, who was chewing on a big chicken leg, saw this, stopped eating, and said loudly: "Captain, it seems... there is trouble!"

Ben Beckman, who was following Shanks, exhaled a puff of smoke, took the cigarette out of his mouth, threw it on the ground, stamped it out with his feet, and said solemnly: "This speed is really fast!"

The red-haired pirates did not stay in the Stedia Federation for long, but even so, Morin was still able to lock their position in such a short period of time.

And personally brought people here.

From this point, it can be seen that the other party has terrifying control over the East China Sea.

Seeing the person who appeared in front of him again, Shanks, as if he had met an old friend, smiled brightly at Molin and said, "We meet again."

As he spoke, Shanks glanced at Ace behind Molin, and his eyes and attention were immediately attracted to Ace.

Seeing a face that was somewhat similar to Captain Roger, Shanks seemed to see Roger laughing again in a trance.

"Is he... Ace?"

When he saw Captain Roger's posthumous son right in front of him, Shanks and even Molin didn't want to take a second look at it.
