One Piece: My Shadow Can Hang Up
Chapter 53 Diary, Captain John
The leader of the surrounded people was named Patton, who was originally a local nobleman. Beside him were his butler and son, and the others were senior sailors hired by him with the money he raised from selling his property.
"There is a traitor..."
Patton looked at the group of people behind him with a gloomy face. Someone must have deliberately spread this matter, so it attracted three pirate groups.
These three pirate groups are not as good as the best, but better than the worst. The overall strength is still good, and the bounty for the pirate captains is between 15 million and 30 million.
Patton and his group looked at each other in surprise, explaining to each other and proving their innocence.
Even Patton couldn't figure this out. Spreading the news would definitely hurt others and not benefit himself. Cooperating with these pirates is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger, not to mention that he has promised this group of people that as long as they find the treasure, everyone will get a share.
"You guys, isn't the master good enough to you? How could someone want to betray? You know who it is, if you dare, stand up!" The old butler said indignantly, loudly rebuking everyone. Patton had doubts about the people in the team. His butler and son were familiar people, and they wouldn't betray him. So the problem must be with the newly recruited crew members. However. The facts were exactly the opposite of what Patton thought. "No one of you stood up?" The old butler continued, and suddenly his expression became weird: "Since you don't stand up, then I'll do it! No more acting, I'm actually the traitor, I'm the one who betrayed you!" Patton looked shocked. At this moment, the old butler gave him a strange feeling, which was completely different from his usual submissive and hardworking appearance. "Why..."
Barton wanted to defend him, but Morid spoke:
"I didn't expect you to take the initiative to stand up. Now that it's like this, it's easier. Now point out who has the treasure map! When the treasure is in hand, I will give you a share..."
Barton was stunned. Morid's words confirmed that the butler was the insider.
"Why do you do this?" Barton asked in astonishment. He couldn't figure out what this loyal butler was doing.
"Why? Haha..." The old butler sneered, and then stared at Barton's son, "If my son is not dead, he should be this big, right?"
As if he heard some shocking bad news, Barton's pupils suddenly contracted, and then he shouted: "But he is dead, the dead cannot be resurrected!"
After hearing this, the old butler smiled strangely, raised his head for a long time and said: "Then how did my son die, you should know better than anyone else!"
The three pirates did not move. It seems that there is a story. It's not too late to take action after listening.
"You...you know everything? Who told you..." Barton took several steps back and looked at the old butler with a horrified face. The person who used to be servile to him now became particularly ferocious and terrifying.
The butler did not answer him, but just told the origin of the matter.
It turned out that the butler had a son who was the same age as the master's young master more than ten years ago. He also regarded the son as a treasure when he got him in his old age, but things did not go as he wished...
One day more than ten years ago, the master's son and his son encountered a pack of wolves in the wild. During the escape, the young master slipped and fell.
Although he had a chance to escape, his son still ran back without hesitation and picked up a stick to fight the wolves alone.
During this process, the master's son recovered his strength and ran away, not caring who fought for him...
Is this the end of the matter?
No!
After all, it was understandable for a young boy to run away in such a situation, but what happened next was the most infuriating...
"Why, you were already there at that time, why didn't you let the servants save my son, why did you take your son and drive away!?"
The old housekeeper screamed with all his strength, and turbid tears shed: "I admit that I have been humble as dust in your family all my life, like a dog wagging its tail at the table and begging the master for food, but, don't our lives have to be lives?"
"This..." Barton wanted to explain but there was really nothing to say. This was indeed the fact. He thought he had given the two servants hush money, but he didn't expect it to be known.
"Twelve years, I have been waiting for twelve years." The housekeeper smiled sickly, "When I arrived at the scene and saw the body that was eaten, sir, do you know how I felt..."
"That's it..."
"Bang!"
The housekeeper suddenly took out a flintlock from his arms, and the flames flew, instantly shooting at Barton's son who was now on the side.
The person who was hit instantly covered his left chest and fell to the ground, without even having time to scream.
Barton's eyes widened instantly. When he saw his son was killed instantly, many emotions surged at once, grief, despair, and anger.
"Damn... I'm going to kill you, old man!" After a long time, Barton recovered a bit of clarity from despair, and the remaining rationality was replaced by anger.
The butler didn't care, and seemed to enjoy this scene. Then he said to the three pirate captains:
"As for what you want, I'm not interested. The map is in his son's clothes and the diary is on him. I just want you to kill them, and after getting the things, give me a quick death!"
The three pirate captains looked at each other in surprise.
They have been pirates for so many years and have never seen such a cruel person!
But since he has such a request, try to meet it.
When Moria and his group arrived, there were already corpses everywhere, wailing, and the three pirate captains were leading their men to clean up the battlefield.
Although the three pirate groups joined forces, there were still some casualties under the opponent's counterattack.
The diary and the folded sea chart were found, and the three captains immediately had a disagreement.
"I'll see it first!"
"I'll see it first..."
At this moment, a strange voice sounded, and then a crutch was placed on the thing that the three people were fighting for: "Hehe, can this thing be shown to our captain too? He seems to be very interested in this thing..."
The three of them looked up at the same time and asked: "Who are you!"
Then.
The three pirate captains were immediately stunned. They were actually surrounded. A dozen people stood around, each with a playful expression.
The pirates of the three pirate groups were lying on the ground at this moment. The team of dozens or hundreds of people had been wiped out before they even noticed.
As they stared in amazement, Absalom walked up to them, snatched the diary and map from them, and handed them to Moria.
Moria opened the diary, and everyone came over. The former read out the content:
"My Captain John..."
Thanks to Mr. Xu for the monthly ticket! Thank you to everyone who read and recommended it!
