Pirate Control Thunder

"Welcome, my most distinguished guest."

In a luxurious room of the Golden Ship Gulan Tezzolo, Tezzolo knelt on the ground, folded his arms across his chest, and saluted Nicholas in the most respectful manner.

Baccarat and Tanaka on the side showed extremely shocked expressions when they saw Tezzolo salute to Nicholas.

This gesture almost represented Lord Tezzolo's surrender in front of Nicholas.

While Tanaka and Baccarat were shocked, they couldn't believe what was happening in front of them. The proud Golden Emperor would one day surrender to others.

The woman on the side who was both familiar and unfamiliar to them came to Tezzolo's side, hugged the half-kneeling man into her arms, and begged Nicholas for mercy.

Aboard the Goran Tezoro.

Karina, who heard the commotion and secretly followed her, stared blankly at Tezzolo, who was half-kneeling to Nicholas, and was a little confused.

What's going on?

"Lord Tezoro!?"

Tanaka finally couldn't help but speak. He really suspected that there must be something dirty on the Gulan Tezoro, otherwise how could Lord Tezoro be like this.

You must know that Lord Tezoro in the past would never make such a humiliating move. The reason why he is called the Golden Emperor is that he will never surrender to anyone else in his life.

But now, he not only looked up to Nicholas, but also half-knelt down and surrendered in front of Nicholas in the most respectful manner.

Fujitora, in particular, was in a particularly complicated mood.

You must know that as Gulan Tezoro's tentacles penetrate deeply into the World Government and the Navy, even if they know that Gulam Tezoro and Tezoro have many problems, they have no way to do anything.

However, not long after Nicholas appeared, Tezzolo knelt down to Nicholas after just a simple exchange of blows?

This is unreasonable!

Fujitora looked at Nicholas with a complicated expression.

He knew that Gulan Tezzolo's position had been determined from the moment Tezzolo expressed his surrender to Nicholas.

Nicholas looked at Tezzolo in surprise as he half-kneeled to him.

Through seeing and hearing the haqi, he could not feel any hostility in Tezoro, but only the surrender from the heart and the unforgettable hatred for the Tianlong people.

It seems that the wave of memory killing just now has indeed awakened some memories that the other party actively chose to forget due to psychological trauma in the past.

Despite this, Nicholas did not relax his vigilance. He just sat on the chair and looked at Nicholas who was half kneeling on the ground, and gently tapped the armrest of the chair with his fingers.

"The Golden Emperor that I 'know' is not the kind of person who will grovel to others casually. Especially after you have experienced that miserable slave life, didn't you swear that you will never let anyone ride on your head again?

"

Nicholas looked at Gilde Tezzolo who was half-kneeling on the ground in amusement, his words mixed with sharp points.

"Are you groveling..."

Hearing Nicholas' words, Tezzolo slowly raised his head, met Nicholas' playful gaze, and said solemnly: "Yes, I once swore that I would never let anyone ride on my head again in this life, but it's different now.

You have the qualifications. And this is not groveling, but respect."

"Respect?"

Nicholas looked calm.

Tezoro grinned with a crazy smile and said: "That's right, I respect you as a hero who dares to wield a sword against the Celestial Dragons!"

"..."

Nicholas looked deeply at Tezzolo.

but.

He had to admit that for being able to transform from a former slave into a powerful man in the world in just a few decades, Tezzolo was definitely a smart person.

Now Tezzolo's low-profile approach, coupled with Stella's plea, made him temporarily shelve the idea of ​​taking action against Tezzolo.

If Tezolo didn't do this, or Tezolo had hatred in his heart.

Then he will definitely kill Tezolo and then receive all Tezolo's treasures.

"I'm very curious. Did you recall what happened between Mariejoia and the Dragon Man in the Holy Land? That caused such a big change in your attitude."

Nicholas didn't mind exposing anyone's wounds at all and asked the question he was most concerned about directly.

After all, Tezzolo's attitude has changed a bit too much.

He believes that the reason why Tezzolo's attitude has changed so drastically is definitely because of what happened.

After hearing this, Tezzolo did not answer Nicholas's question immediately, but looked back at Stella and Baccarat.

Looking at Tezzolo's move, Nicholas suddenly realized that what Tezzolo was going to say might be a bit difficult to say, so he took the initiative to suggest without waiting for Tezzolo to speak:

"Let's talk somewhere quieter."

"good."

Tezzolo nodded.

Nicholas's proposal was exactly what he wanted.

After all, it is a past that cannot be looked back upon...

Although he knew that this was a test for Nicholas, and he didn't mind revealing it to Nicholas, he was not generous enough to let others know, especially Stella.

"Please come with me."

Tezzolo stood up and led the way.

Nicholas stood up with a smile and followed Tezolo. For him, with his current strength, he was not afraid of anything Tezolo would do.

Before leaving, Tezzolo specifically told Baccarat and the others to take good care of other distinguished guests.

Soon, in the room on the highest floor of Gulan Tezolo's Golden Tower, Nicholas silently listened to Tezolo's tragic experience.

"Selective amnesia."

Nicholas stood in front of the window and looked at the scene below, and said slowly.

Many unsatisfactory things happen in everyone's life. Some are quickly forgotten, but some are always lingering and cannot be forgotten no matter how hard they try.

These things repeatedly torture the fragile nerves every moment of every day, keeping the whole person on the verge of collapse.

When this emotion reaches its limit, forgetting is the body's most instinctive way to protect itself.

Selective amnesia is a defense mechanism.

In layman's terms, if a person encounters a powerful stimulus that is unacceptable, then when he is on the verge of mental collapse, his body function will subconsciously choose to forget about it, and a "choice" will form.

Sexual amnesia”.

Some people who have suffered major setbacks are eager to have selective amnesia. Under strong mental pressure, they will feel that certain things have never happened. They will even fabricate another situation in their minds to deceive themselves imaginatively, and

Believe in false memories.

However, although it seems to be forgotten on the surface, its shadow still exists.

It only takes one trigger to explode.

And Tezzolo's memories were the inducement to recall his humiliating memory.

Nicholas also somewhat understood why Tezzolo's attitude had changed so much. After all, as a straight man, being anally raped was a huge physical and psychological blow.

But to be honest, Tezoro is really good-looking and can sing well, so it is normal for him to be favored by some perverted Celestial Dragons.

"I'm going to kill all those scum!"

Every time Tezzolo recalled that nightmare-like encounter, his bone-deep murderous intent would emit uncontrollably.
