One Piece: My Shadow Can Hang Up
Chapter 72 Betting! Accident
The blind man was not an unknown person.
He was Fujitora, who was promoted to general through the world conscription two years after the original work. His original name was Yixiao.
Moria, who was originally in a low mood, was now in high spirits.
Under the strange gazes of the crowd, Yixiao asked for directions and left.
Moria did not say anything and walked away on his own. Anyway, they would go to the casino later and meet again.
At the same time, in a castle in Modo City, a group of nobles and the king were talking about things with worry.
"I didn't expect that Moonlight Moria would come!" said a noble with a bad expression.
Another noble replied with some fear: "What should we do? What should we do? If he knows, I guess everyone here will not be able to escape."
"Alas! What did I say at the beginning? Don't bully orphans and widows. Although Usa is dead, there are still people alive on the whole ship. Now it's good. We will all die at that time."
One person was full of regret, scratching his ears and cheeks in pain.
"He's just a pirate, what's there to be afraid of?" The chief of the guards of Modo couldn't help but sneer, "We have nearly 10,000 troops. As long as he dares to cause trouble, we don't mind making him disappear from now on!"
"That's the guy who defeated the Cone Pepper. The Flower Kingdom doesn't even dare to say a harsh word now."
I don't know who said this, and then no one in the room spoke again.
After a long time, King Lucio II of Modo asked, "Where is Moonlight Moria now?"
The subordinate replied respectfully, "Moonlight Moria took his men to a restaurant, and it's not certain what they are going to do."
"Louise, that woman, shouldn't dare to say our names!" Lucio was relieved when he heard this, and then his face showed a fierce look, "In that case, just let her never say it."
"Your Majesty, what do you mean..."
In the Modo City Casino, when Moria Deng and others arrived, Yixiao had already won a lot of chips at this moment.
However
When guessing odd or even, they encountered Waterloo. The chips in front of them kept decreasing, but Yixiao's expression remained the same.
"Even!"
Yixiao bet on an even number again, and then a voice sounded:
"I bet on an even number too!"
Yixiao turned his head back. Although he was blind, he could still tell that the person in front of him was one of the group of people who had just told him the way.
The points were announced, and neither of them guessed correctly. The final result was an odd number.
The second time, the two bet on the same number, but still guessed wrong.
The third time, the...time, all were wrong, as if they could avoid their choice. This scene also attracted the laughter of the onlookers.
The chips of the two were decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Finally, Yixiao's chips ran out, and he sighed, as if he was lamenting his bad luck, and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute."
At this time, Moria called him: "I finally met such a speculative person, why don't you bet with me?"
Yixiao was stunned for a moment, stopped, and touched his head apologetically: "I'm sorry, I've spent all my money, and I don't have anything to bet with you..."
"No, you have." Moria interrupted, and then pointed at him: "You are a big bargaining chip. I bet with you. If you win, all my chips are yours. If you lose, then you need to join us."
Yixiao did not agree, but just asked: "What bet?"
"Boom!"
There was a loud noise, followed by the sound of wood breaking. When the wood chips flew, Moria directly inserted his hand under the table and pulled a figure out.
There was a person hiding under the table.
For a moment, everyone watching understood what was going on.
The reason why these two people couldn't guess was that someone had done something wrong.
Before the smoke and dust had dissipated, Moria quickly grabbed the hand of the person under the table and slapped it on the table.
"What are you doing? Let me go!" The man struggled fiercely, but Moriah's hand was like an iron clamp, firmly fixed.
Moriah ignored him and said directly to Yixiao: "Then let's bet on how many fingers this guy has!"
The pedestrians around were confused. Could it be that this guy was born with six fingers or four fingers?
Yixiao also didn't understand the meaning of Moriah's bet with him. After all, as long as someone who has mastered the observation Haki can find out with a little investigation.
"Five fingers." Yixiao replied. He felt that there were indeed five fingers under Moriah's hand, no more and no less.
For a while, other people joined in the fun and started to guess.
Moriah shook his head, indicating that Yixiao didn't guess right.
Everyone couldn't help but become curious and cast their eyes.
Moriah let go of his hand, and then the result came into view, which was the same as Yixiao's guess, that is, five fingers.
"Blind man, you win, it's..."
Someone in the crowd said, but then under everyone's gaze, Moria drew out a knife, heard a scream, and instantly cut off the man's little finger.
The man under the table rolled on the ground in pain, and Moria smiled and said to Yixiao: "You guessed wrong, it's four fingers!"
Since your casino can cheat and change the results, then naturally he can too.
Yixiao rolled his eyes and was stunned for a while.
After a long time, he said, "Winning or losing is not important. Even if I lose, I will not agree to join you!"
He touched his cane and sword, and continued to say to Moria, "Your sword is too sharp and too domineering. It is different from my path and is not suitable for me."
Although Yixiao was talking about the sword, he was using the sword to reject Moria's invitation.
Moria seemed to have expected it, and his expression did not change. He knew that Yixiao was a person who adhered to justice. To put it bluntly, he was a saint.
But due to Yixiao's strength, Moria still wanted to recruit him.
"In that case, I can only say it's a pity."
Moria waved his hand. It seemed that they were not on the same path after all. It was too difficult to recruit him, unless he could turn from evil to good, which was obviously impossible.
At this moment, he also figured it out. Even if Yixiao joined now to enhance the overall strength of the Moonlight Pirates, they might draw their swords against each other because of some things in the future.
Afterwards, the casino owner came out to apologize to Moria directly, and returned the lost money, and also wanted to compensate Moria, but the latter did not want it.
However, although they both lost money, the casino did not mention the money that Yixiao lost. This is the difference between bad people and good people.
Just as Moria walked out of the casino, a figure suddenly ran in hurriedly. After seeing Moria, he said directly in a trembling voice:
"Lord Moria, something bad has happened..."
