Arceus' Pirate Journey
Page 262
"Well, it's about time to stop. Sorry to bother you, little girl."
"It's okay. I'm going to do something else on the way anyway."
After exchanging the chips for cash and the casino collecting part of the handling fee, the blind man received his winnings. He confidently handed the cane in his hand to Yamato and asked him to lead him out of the casino.
"Uncle, have you always been so naive? You just won my money, and you just handed me the tools for exploring the way. Aren't you afraid that I will push you off somewhere?"
"I don't think you would, and if you wanted to default on the debt, couldn't you just take the money and leave?"
"You are such a meaningless old man. Shouldn't you be scared at a time like this? Never mind. I'll take you to your hotel. Show me your ticket."
Tezuolo promised a day of free food and accommodation, but a ticket was required to enjoy this service.
The other party had no doubts, and quickly handed over the ticket from his arms, and his movements were so sensitive that Yamato couldn't see that the other party was blind.
"Special prize... Uncle, you are really lucky."
Gulan Tezuolo has three types of tickets available to the public this time: invitation letters from leaders of various industries, tickets purchased by ordinary tourists, and VIP tickets distributed randomly through lottery.
Yamato remembered that there were very few tickets like this, and it was a sign of luck that she got one. So it was reasonable for her to lose 31 games in a row.
"Little girl, are you a staff member here? I see you seem very familiar with this place."
"Not really. I just know some people, so I spent a few days here. The scenery here is very beautiful, but it's a pity that you can't see it, uncle."
"There's nothing to regret. Not being able to see is a blessing. There are too many filthy and despicable people in this world that are hard to bear to look at. I closed my eyes by myself."
"Shut it yourself... Uncle, you are really a weirdo. What's your name?"
"My name... Just call me with a smile. You are too young, little girl. This world is not so naive. Even a blind man like me can be a threat to you."
Seeing that she was able to come here to play early and had a wealthy family, Yixiao thought she was some naive rich girl. He wanted her to be more alert to the outside world to avoid getting hurt. For this reason, he planned to release some aura to scare her, but she was completely unmoved.
"What? Uncle, you are so strong. No wonder you dare to come out alone."
Yixiao is indeed very strong. He is a man who can directly obtain the rank of admiral in the Navy's World Recruitment.
Although he lacks the vision of binoculars, his powerful observation Haki has become his special eyes. He has a route map like an infrared radar in his mind and is not affected by his blindness at all.
In other words, it was because he destroyed his own eyes that he gained such a powerful observation ability.
Gambling is his hobby and also a way to earn a living. Different people have different focuses in practicing the ability to see and hear. Yixiao's focus is on sensing and distinguishing breath.
He can accurately sense the outlines of various objects around him. With this ability, he is also a cheat in the casino. Just now, Yamato was betting against him out of spite, so there is no way he can win like this.
If the casino can afford to lose, he will leave in time, but if he meets someone who can't afford to lose and wants to rip him off, he will use force to let the other party know what terror is.
He has a relatively easy-going personality and is very concerned about the lives of ordinary people, but it is different towards the villains. He is also an opponent of the Shichibukai system. In his opinion, the Shichibukai system has no meaning other than to encourage the arrogance of pirates.
"Aren't you the same? Interesting little girl. If it were in the earlier years, I could have seen what such an interesting person looked like."
He just wanted to scare the other person, but someone who had no reaction to that kind of aura was no different from an ordinary person. He also had another purpose in choosing to board the ship after winning the prize, which was to see what it was like here.
It seems that this is an ordinary entertainment venue or a den of filth and dirt. However, based on the current performance, there is no difference between this place and an ordinary entertainment venue. However, he believes that this is just an appearance.
There are many extraordinary people on this ship, and he has sensed more than one powerful aura along the way.
Yamato has confirmed that this blind uncle is different from ordinary blind people, but she still sent him to a resting place. In her opinion, a blind man will have some inconveniences no matter how strong he is.
"If you need anything, press the button on the wall and I'll ask the front desk to take good care of you."
"Thank you very much. By the way, what's your name, little girl?"
"Me? My name is Yamato. Goodbye, funny uncle. By the way, there is a great concert here tomorrow. Although you can't see it, it should be okay to hear it. If you are interested, you can go and listen."
Yamato then left. She had no interest in gambling, and became even less interested after the series of defeats. Taizulo also successfully took away the Celestial Dragons the next day. After they left, Gulan Taizulo finally started his real party.
"Hey, hey, hey, these are the Celestial Dragons. Where they are, people don't even dare to have a good time..."
Doflamingo, who witnessed the departure of the Celestial Dragons, smiled to himself, but a fierce gleam flashed in his eyes beneath his sunglasses.
Chapter 621: Buggy Phantom Fruit
He hated the current Celestial Dragons, not because he didn't like what the Celestial Dragons did as a group, but because this group refused to accept him again.
His father made him fall from the "altar". In his opinion, without his father's actions, he would still be a high-ranking Celestial Dragon.
But what has happened cannot be reversed, he can never become a Celestial Dragon again. Since he can't go back, then everyone should come down together. This is Doflamingo's idea.
Born into a Celestial Dragon family, he knows many of their secrets, but he also knows that it is not a goal that can be accomplished by words. In order to complete his revenge, he plans and develops himself bit by bit.
Gulan Tezuolo's world is full of opportunities. He has already seen many of the leaders in the underground world and is preparing to contact them.
The Don Quixote Pirates plan to enter the New World next year, which is paving the way for themselves in advance.
Doflamingo did not bring his subordinates here this time. He had to do these things himself and try to be the middleman. In the process, his identity as "Beasts' subordinate dealer" helped him a lot.
Doflamingo's name still has some value in the North Sea or the first half of the Grand Line, but in the New World, no one knows who he is, and those industry giants simply don't bother to pay attention to him.
He doesn't have the title of Shichibukai now, he's just a pirate with over 100 million worth. There are a lot of such people in the New World, and they have no special features at all.
But it’s different if it’s related to Baishou. At least this shows that the other party has a certain connection with Baishou, so those people are willing to give Baishou face and listen to what he wants to say.
Overall, Doflamingo's development was going smoothly, and he achieved a lot of results during the dinner.
When he walked back to the room, his steps were much more arrogant than before.
...
The next morning, Yixiao woke up in the room, changed his clothes skillfully, picked up the cane beside him and walked out. Although he still used it as a blind stick to feel the road under his feet, it was just a decoration. Whether he had this blind stick or not did not affect his walking.
A new day began, and he decided to go to the casino to gamble again to test his luck for the day.
He seldom goes to the same casino twice. Casinos that use tricks will usually be beaten by him, while casinos that do not use tricks and can afford to lose will blacklist him. If he is allowed to win every day, no one can bear it.
Yixiao usually wouldn't try to do this, but there was only this one casino in Gulan Tezuolo, so he came here with a tentative purpose. Unexpectedly, he was not stopped at all, and he happily paid the money after winning the bet.
Tai Zuo Luo has prepared a lot of methods, but those methods are not for ordinary people. He can afford to lose when facing ordinary people, and he will just accept that some people are lucky. These methods are used in special situations.
He also discovered something interesting. Here, people were not waited until they lost everything. Instead, they were kicked out after they lost half of their chips.
"Let me go, I can still turn the tables. What casino doesn't do business?"
"Excuse me, we have the final say on the rules here. Your luck in gambling today ends here. Do you really have to lose everything?"
This is a small rule set by Taizuolo. He used to be a gambler and knows the feeling of being overwhelmed by gambling, so he set this rule for the guests in the ordinary hall to give them a cooling-off period.
He never considered himself a good person, nor did he think he was qualified to be a good person. That kind of good person would not touch so many gray industries. The "good people" here had long been eaten up. He just had his own bottom line.
Baishou Fruit has special people patrolling here to deal with situations like this. They will also bring people who meet the requirements into the VIP room, where there is no such restriction.
Eventually the man was thrown out of the casino. When the cold wind blew over his head, he seemed to be much more sober.
“Interesting rules....”
Yixiao, who had only gambled once, also came out, and the broadcast in the entire Gulan Taizuolo also sounded at this time.
“Everyone, the postponed performance will start in half an hour. Friends who are interested can go to the central square to participate in the event. Don’t worry if you can’t find a seat. The whole Gulan Tezuolo can enjoy this performance!
Our new star, Uta’s debut performance!”
Tezulo's voice came from the microphone, and then they found that the sky above their heads had changed, and a dreamlike palace appeared in the sky.
At this time, the sky was full of strange rocks, which seemed to be showing humans what the work of nature is, and the hall in the middle gradually turned into a stage.
This is Uta’s debut venue, a fake projection created with the help of An’s Illusion Fruit.
The illusion created by An is not like Olga's illusion that can deceive perception and bring a real touch. As long as you touch it, you will pass through it. It is a completely false illusion, but it is simpler to create.
This is what Tai Zuo Luo discovered during this period. As long as there is a picture with setting data in the document, An can project it, and the consumption is very small. Even a large-area phantom can last for a long time.
So Taizuolo made an attempt. He specially asked painters and authors to compile a book, and wrote strict data for the pictures in it. Then he tore it off and gave it to Ann to see if she could project it. The result was positive.
From then on, An became the royal special effects artist. No matter what the scene was, as long as it could be drawn and marked with strict data, An could project it.
Large screens also appeared on the ship's buildings and began to play pre-recorded advertisements, while final testing was also being carried out.
Uta stood on a prepared basket. Hercules would take her to the singing stage in the sky. There were a lot of sound amplification equipment installed on the basket, but it was not a problem for Hercules with his strength.
The show hasn't started yet, but this background has already attracted everyone's attention.
Hearing the sighs of the people around him, Yixiao also looked up, but he could not sense anything there and could only sense a faint fluctuation of power.
"It's a shame. It must be a very shocking scene."
"Yes, this is a great special effect, but you can't see it, uncle. Do you want me to explain it to you?"
Yamato and others appeared near Yixiao with cheering sticks. Seeing that this blind uncle really came to the scene, Yamato made this suggestion.
"Haha, thank you very much. Let me hear how shocking this scene is."
Ordinary people just marvel at the gorgeousness of this special effect, but some people are different.
Chapter 622: Uta's Debut
"咈咈咈咈咈, you are worthy of being called the Hundred Beasts. You are really generous. You actually use such a great ability to hold a concert."
At this time, Doflamingo was lamenting that the power of this fruit was wasted. In Doflamingo's opinion, such ability had greater uses.
If this fruit were given to him, some of his plans could be implemented ahead of time, and with the realistic phantoms and his parasitic threads, he would be fully capable of using the country as a stage to present a huge puppet show.
If he saw this person with special abilities somewhere else, he would definitely kidnap him and find a way to use him for his own purposes.
As for why he knew that this was a person with special abilities, he was also at the main venue at that time, and saw with his own eyes how An tore off the picture from the book and turned it into a phantom in the sky.
But there are hundreds of beasts here, and he doesn't even have time to curry favor with others, let alone stab them in the back.
But on the other hand, he doesn't seem to be qualified to evaluate the strength of the fruit abilities. As an excellent devil fruit supplier, too many powerful fruits come from his hands. His own people also have many powerful fruits, but there are also many outrageous fruits.
For example, the swimming fruit. Maybe this thing can develop some very strange abilities, but compared to the fruit that can gain powerful strength after eating, the ability to swim in the soil seems very humble.
"But that mark...If I remember correctly, it's the family crest of the Flanders family. Those guys who are not very interested in the affairs of the outside world actually interfered here. The beasts are really unexpected."
The family crests of different Celestial Dragon families are completely different. As a former Celestial Dragon, Mingo can recognize the difference between these patterns.
Given the character of the Celestial Dragons, the fact that they attended the opening ceremony meant that this place had a certain connection with them. At this time, Doflamingo felt that he had underestimated the other party. The power of the beasts was greater than he thought.
But this is a good thing for him. The stronger the beasts are, the greater the benefit to him.
.....
"Uta, are you ready?"
"I'm ready. I'm already familiar with this piece of music."
"Don't be nervous. Even if something unexpected happens, Taizuolo and I can save you. Just go and sing."
"Hok, hok!"
This was her first time to step onto a world-class stage. The biggest stage she had ever performed on was the National Concert of Elegiia, but considering the population of Elegiia, that was not a big event.
The debut performance is crucial for an artist. In order to prevent Uta from failing to show her true strength due to stage fright, Stella is cheering her on.
Hercules was also flexing his muscles, indicating that he could carry Uta steadily into the air, and she just needed to focus on her performance.
Given the gravity of Heracross, a hanging basket plus Uta and amplification equipment are nothing. It can last even longer than An can maintain the Phantom Stage.
But Uta is concerned about more than just this.
“Um, is there a live broadcast this time?”
"There will be some, but they are mainly newspapers after the event. There are live broadcast channels, but you are still a newcomer after all."
Den Den Mushi that can broadcast live images are also relatively rare. Usually only large movie theaters have equipment that can receive the Den Den Mushi signals. Taizulo can handle some channels, but it is not possible for her to broadcast live to the whole world yet.
"Can you see it... Shanks?"
"I can see that you've told him, he will definitely find a way to watch the live broadcast. It's time to do your best."
Heracross took Uta high into the sky, and An also tore off a few pieces of paper with Uta's name on them. Uta's name, which was made up of musical notes, also appeared in everyone's sight.
Uta finally chose "Where the Wind Goes" as her debut song, a song she wrote herself. It can be said to be the beginning of her singing career and the first song she sang on the Redvers.
The songs sung by Uta are all written by herself, from composing the music to writing the lyrics. This seems to be her innate talent, and the notes are the most reliable companions in her hands.
"On the other side of the horizon, I wave goodbye to that shadow~
I just hope that I can convey this song to you at any time~"
Uta's melodious singing voice rang out in the sky, and then spread to every corner of Gulan Tezuolo through the loudspeaker equipment. At the same time, An kept tearing the album in her hand, making an exclusive MV for Uta.
There is no doubt that this is an audio-visual feast. In this world where the entertainment industry is already relatively poor, the emergence of the entertainment city Gulan Tezuolo is a surprise.
The unique programs above have already attracted their attention, but Uta's debut is even more shocking. Even among the nobles, few have seen such a scene. This is the most realistic image created by the fruit ability user.
