Pirates: Bleach Vice-Captain

Chen Qi and others unanimously agreed, handed over 30,000 beli, and the group went to Silver City.

The six people stood on the pier and looked around. It was said to be a city-state, but the houses were all thatched houses and log cabins. There is only a relatively spacious road with only a few restaurants and bars, which should be regarded as the commercial street in this area.

But what is incompatible with these is that, looking further away, it looks like a small city, and several huge palaces can be vaguely seen. Under the sunlight, it can also reflect silver-white light.

"It's time to eat!" Luffy didn't care at all. When he saw the restaurant, he rushed over like a gust of wind.

Everyone had no choice but to run up after him.

"Meat! I want meat!" Luffy shouted for meat as soon as he entered the restaurant.

The owner of the restaurant is lean and has a small goatee: "We don't have much meat anymore. It may only be enough for one person. What else do the others need?"

One person's portion of meat was left for Luffy, and the others had to order some staple food and vegetarian dishes.

Luffy, a very nervous guy, only focused on eating, but Nami and others found that the boss seemed a little listless, with some patches on his apron, and he was not as enthusiastic as other restaurant owners when entertaining guests.

The restaurant also seemed extremely deserted. Apart from them, there were only three or two diners sitting there.

Everyone except Luffy felt something was wrong.

The food is all served by the boss himself, there is not even a waiter.

Nami couldn't help but ask: "Boss, what's going on here? Why do we have to pay when we go to the island?"

Boss: "Are you new here?"

Luffy stuffed a large piece of meat into his mouth: "Oh, we are pirates, my name is Luffy, the man who wants to become the Pirate King! Please give me your advice!"

After Luffy finished speaking, he continued to eat hard.

When the boss heard that they were pirates, he didn't pay much attention. He moved a chair to sit next to them and started talking to everyone.

This place is located in the northwest of the East China Sea. It is called Helian Silver City. Its ruler is Helian Keke. He led his army to capture this place seven years ago and became the king here.

The previous king was still a wise king. This place was rich in silver mines and was considered a prosperous place, so the citizens lived a very abundant life. People's residences were basically small buildings, and everyone's food, clothing and daily necessities were not a problem at all.

Usopp looked confused: "This place is rich in silver mines? Then why now..."

At this time, while Chen Qi was not paying attention, Luffy secretly reached into Chen Qi's plate, grabbed a mouthful of food and ate it.

Luffy's rubber stretched, how could Chen Qi not see it: "You guy, don't eat mine!"

Luffy pouted: "I'm not full yet."

Nami shouted at the two of them: "Please be quiet! Listen to what they have to say!"

Boss Tommy continued.

But since Helian Keke came here seven years ago, everything has changed!

This guy was very greedy. He began to extort money and taxes as soon as he came to rule here. He ordered each household to pay a certain amount of silver per head per month, otherwise they would be severely punished.

[This kind of behavior is almost the same as Aaron. 】

What's even more outrageous is that not only do you have to pay silver every month, but everyone who does business also has to pay taxes, and even street stalls have to pay stall tax.

Chen Qi took a sip of water: "Then, didn't you resist?"

Boss Tommy sighed: "There have been several uprisings, but they have been easily suppressed. Their power is far beyond what ordinary people can imagine."

"Oh?" Chen Qi suddenly became interested when he heard this, "Can you tell me a little bit?"

"Ahem..."

Tommy cleared his throat and continued his introduction.

King Helian Keke can transform into a bison, which is extremely powerful and invincible on the battlefield. The king has three generals, the left general, the right general and the side general, all of whom are of extraordinary strength.

Because Boss Tommy has only heard about them and has never participated in the rebel army against Helian Keke (otherwise he would not be alive now), so he doesn’t know much about them.

Listening to his description, Chen Qi knew that the king was a person with the ability of the cow fruit of the animal system (the people of the East China Sea knew very little about the fruit).

"However, the king did not know where he recruited a national warrior named Slok five years ago. At first, because the number of rebels was relatively large, Helian's army had a harder time fighting, but they were able to win, and since Slok After arriving, I don’t know what ability that guy has. No matter how many times the rebels outnumber the Helian Army, as long as that guy is there, the Helian Army can easily win, and...and..."

Sanji: "And what?"

Boss Tommy said, his face changed: "It would be fine if the rebels died on the battlefield, but if they fall into the hands of Slok alive, he will use cruel punishments to deal with the prisoners..."

Nami: "Cruel punishment..."

The more Tommy talked about it, the more ugly his face became: "After an uprising failed, the rebels knew that they could not win and surrendered one after another. Then they were all tied to wooden stakes in the central square by the Helian army and began to execute them... Seeing those The prisoner was suffering, and Slok actually laughed wildly. The blood from the tortured person formed a stream. The body was not disposed of, but tied to a pillar to dry... That Slok was not only powerful, but also very perverted. , simply a devil..."

"Oh?" Chen Qi became more and more interested as he listened, "National Master Slok, is he really strong?"

Boss Tommy: "Of course, hundreds of people fully armed can't get close to him."

Usopp: "Should the Navy just sit back and watch something like this happen here?"

Tommy sighed: "Don't be so naive. This is a relatively remote place in the East China Sea. It is already relatively remote. The most important thing is that I heard that Helian Keke is also in collusion with a Shichibukai, and he will be dedicated to that Shichibukai every year. A large amount of silver, and some people even say that this guy is a subordinate of the Four Emperors. What can the Navy do for such a person?"

Indeed, even Aaron has ruled more than 20 villages for eight years without seeing the navy, let alone Helian Keke with such a background.

When Sanji heard what his boss said, he choked on his cigarette: "The four... subordinates of the Four Emperors? Are they colluding with the Shichibukai? Are you kidding me?"

The Four Emperors are indeed still too far away for them now.

Tommy: "I just heard about it. But I can tell you a fact. Doesn't everyone have to pay ten taels of silver to go to the island? But if you go out again, you have to pay ten thousand taels!"

Nami: "One...ten thousand taels?!"

Ten thousand taels is equivalent to five million beli, and six people are equivalent to thirty million beli!

How can they have so much money?
