Codex Pirates

Chapter 258 Overlord Color

William and Laura Louise asked and answered questions. After talking for a long time, William took the initiative to reveal a lot of key information that Laura couldn't investigate.

Of course, he didn’t answer every question. He avoided talking about many confidential questions, such as things related to Ajin. In addition, he also mixed some private things in it, such as the one he had talked with Aramis, Lies about the parentage of King Falaise's royal family.

Because most of what William said was true, some false information that was not easy to obtain was mixed in, and Laura Louise couldn't tell the difference.

That night, when William was going to sleep and rest, an attendant knocked on his door suddenly. It turned out that an emergency call came at this time.

"William, my people in White Pine Town have found the traces of Crick and the golden lion Shiki." Sherlock's voice came from the phone bug.

William shaved his eyebrows lightly with his little fingernail, and after thinking for a while, he sneered and said, "You already feel that you have a chance to win, so come over to see your property?"

"What should I do?" Sherlock asked over there, "Do you want to do it now?"

"No," William said after thinking for a while, "the newspaper hasn't been published yet, and the public opinion hasn't fermented yet, and in this situation, there is no certainty of killing him. It will not be easy, and Crowe and Crick may be exposed."

"That……."

"I'll go and see for myself," William said.

"Isn't it too dangerous?" Sherlock asked with some concern.

"He wants to see me," William sneered, "on my territory, don't I dare to show up?"

...

William did not guess wrong. The Golden Lion Shiji really came to Baisong Town with a master mentality, and he really wanted to see William, so he brought Crick by his side and showed up in William's sphere of influence openly. .

"Captain Skee, if you want to see William, can't you just go to him?" Crick asked, "We only show up in this small town, and he doesn't know what to do? Isn't it a waste of our time? "

"If the person named William can't receive news or find us under such circumstances, then it's not worth my wasting my saliva to try to win him over, because it shows that he has too little control over the forces under his banner," Golden Lion said. Shi Ji stepped on two sharp swords, turning a blind eye to the curious eyes of the residents on the side of the road, "What I want is someone who can stabilize the situation when the power is handed over. How can I trust such a person to appease people in various departments at critical moments?"

"I'll give him ten days to appear in front of me," the Golden Lion Shiji said after taking a sip of his cigar and lightly puffing out a smoke ring, "If he can't appear within ten days, it means he's a waste and of no use. , I will directly show up in public and seize his power."

The golden lion Shiji glanced at Crick: "At that time, you will be in charge of the affairs of this island, and gather these little pirates from the East China Sea to run errands for me."

"Okay!" Crick replied pretending to be happy, and then asked, "What if William shows up?"

"That means he is useful." Golden Lion Shiji suddenly looked towards the direction of the intersection, "He can control his subordinates very well. I hope that what I receive in my hand is a big intact cake, not a pile of mud. I need to reorganize all the clues, I don’t have so much time and energy, and it’s best that the shipyard will start working as usual on the day I take over, and there will be no turmoil or loss of funds in this town.”

"Is ten days too short?" Crick asked hesitantly.

"It's not short, even what I set may be too long." The Golden Lion Shiji suddenly laughed, took off his cigar, and pointed to the intersection, "Because the man named William should have come."

At the intersection, a young man with short blond hair appeared in the sight of Golden Lion Shiji and Crick, and was leading several people towards this direction with expressionless faces.

"The one with short blond hair is 'Morgan William', right?" Golden Lion Shiji asked Crick.

"That's right."

"His strength seems to be passable, and the others are a little bit worse. Is he his confidant?" Golden Lion Shiji asked again.

Crick glanced over the faces of Aramis and Selkirk, then nodded: "There are two."

While the two were talking, William had already brought someone to the Golden Lion Shiji. He purposely glanced at the Golden Lion Shiji, then at Crick, frowning, as if he was thinking about the relationship between the two. Asked: "Crick, what's going on? Isn't the ship you were on missing? Why did it suddenly appear here, where are Crowe and Harden?"

"Sorry, Lord William, I now have a new captain," Crick pointed at the golden lion Shiki under William's gradually gloomy gaze, "I used to be as famous as Roger and Whitebeard Edward, the legendary big pirate, 'Golden Lion' Shiki!"

William's expression did not show any flaws, including Aramis and Selkirk, because it was the first time for the three of them to see the golden lion Shiji with their own eyes, and they all showed a hint of surprise just right.

"What do you mean?" William frowned deeper, and looked at Shi Ji again, "Why did the famous 'Golden Lion' come to the East China Sea?"

"Because this sea area is very weak, but there are things I want." The golden lion Shiji said with a faint sarcasm, "There is nothing that makes pirates happier than snatching other people's things." gone."

In addition to the two cadres, Aramis and Selkirk, William brought some ordinary armed men, who looked ugly after hearing the words of the golden lion Shiji. Put it on the handle.

The golden lion Shi Ji glanced at the hands of the two of them, and immediately after that, the whites of his eyes became bloodshot, the veins around his temples bulged slightly, and became visible to the naked eye, and his pupils shrank a little.

William didn't notice anything, but Selkirk and Aramis beside him only felt that their swordsmanship and physical skills were suddenly forgotten, like a man who had no strength to restrain a chicken, but was placed in the shadow of a lion. Under the sight, the heartbeat became faster, and the hairs counted down, as if he had just recovered a life from the brink of death.

This feeling was short-lived, and the two came back to their senses in an instant, but the others brought by William were not as lucky as the two of them.

Plop, plop...

There were several sounds of heavy objects falling to the ground, and several ordinary armed men brought by William suddenly foamed at the mouth, rolled their eyes, passed out, and fell straight to the ground.
