Pirates: The first partner is Tom Cat

Rainland is a very prosperous city. It has always been called the City of Dreams. Its level of development is not inferior to that of the royal capital Albana.

The most conspicuous building in the city is Crocodile’s lair, the casino called ‘Rain Feast’.

It was a pyramid-shaped building with a huge crocodile statue on the top. The original shape of the statue was one of Zhang Daye's goals during their trip, the banana crocodile.

Before entering the city, Zhang Da also bought some food and drinks for the running ducks and asked them to play nearby, and then use the phone bug to contact them when they returned.

There is no need to worry about safety issues. The running duck is the fastest animal in Alabasta, and it has undergone a period of training after being incorporated into the army. It will definitely have no problem protecting itself in the desert.

"Quack!" The running ducks saluted and prepared to turn around and leave.

Tom stood at attention solemnly and raised his arms in return.

Seeing Tom's serious look, the running ducks paused and saluted again.

Tom raised his hand that he had just lowered and returned the greeting again.

The running ducks salute again.

Tom... failed to salute, and Zhang Daye grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up with an innocent look on his face.

"Stop making trouble, there is still business." Zhang Da also patted Tom on the head and said to the running ducks, "Disband! Let's go play."

"Quack!" The running ducks then turned and ran away, wondering what they were doing just now as they ran.

A few people didn't spend too much time on the street, but went straight to Yuyan.

When approaching Yuyan, a luxurious atmosphere hit me - this pyramid-shaped building was built in the middle of the lake.

In Alabasta, even the palace has to wait until the rainy season to open a large bath, but Crocodile has exclusive access to a lake, which can be said to be very high-profile.

Several people walked along the bridge to the island in the lake and entered the rain feast.

"Welcome!" Several waiters in suits and ties stood at the door and bowed.

It seems that Lao Sha's taste is not very good. White Beard also knows how to arrange several beautiful nurses. The greeters at the entrance of such a big casino are all men. There is no future. Zhang Da also complained.

Several people looked around and saw that there was some noise in the casino hall. The gaming tables were crowded with people. Some were well-dressed and had a big belly, while others were in shabby clothes and had sallow complexions.

However, there is no difference between these people here. Everyone stares at the dealer expectantly, waiting for him to reveal the result of the bet, showing expressions of excitement or disappointment.

The waiter saw that Zhang Daye and the others did not look like regular customers, so he sent someone to guide them: "Is this your first time here? Please come here to exchange your chips."

Several people followed him to the exchange office. Zhang Da also took out a 10,000-beli bill. He thought that by exchanging chips, he was giving money to Lao Sha, which made him feel a little unhappy, even though he thought Lao Sha was about to get cold.

Zhang Da also put the banknotes back, took out a thousand-beli bill, put it back after thinking about it, took out a few coins and slapped them on the table, and said proudly: "Replace all of these!"

The waiter who led the way twitched his lips and turned back to his post. Seeing that these people were wearing good clothes, he didn't expect to be so stingy. It seemed that he didn't want to get the tip, so he should wait for the next person.

The receptionist's smile also froze, and he tried to maintain a polite tone: "Guest, there is no need to exchange coins. You can only use the money to play with it."

Zhang Da also looked in the direction he was pointing, and his eyes lit up: "Isn't this the legendary slot machine? I haven't played it yet, let's go, that's the one!"

Halfway through, Rui Mengmeng asked in a low voice, a little embarrassed: "Boss, are we being too stingy like this? The look in their eyes makes us want to kick us out."

"If they drive people away, we will have an excuse to cause trouble." Zhang Daye said, "It's a pity, Lao Sha's men are well trained. But it doesn't matter. When we win more money, someone will come to us. Come on.

Come on, let’s divide the coins, two for each person.”

Ye Yan picked up two coins and tossed them: "It's time to show how to win 250 million with two coins. In fact, I have some knowledge of gambling. I should have changed into a God of Gamblers costume beforehand. I made a mistake.

."

"Do you still know how to gamble?" Zhang Daye asked, "How come I never see you beat Artoria when playing cards?"

Ye Yan staggered and said helplessly: "Don't use someone outside the standard as an example, her luck is not scientific at all.

Moreover, advanced gambling skills are either psychological tactics or Chuqian's skills. They are usually used to bully Tom and deceive Perona. Let's forget it with Artoria. Chuqian was caught and embarrassed."

Tom tilted his head, as if he had heard something terrible. Next time, add three spoons of salt to Ye Yan's rice bowl.

"After talking so much, if it doesn't work, it just won't work." Zhang Daye randomly selected a machine, put in coins and pulled the joystick, click click click, the three grids showed different patterns, accompanied by a piece of cheerful music, 100 Baileys was happy

The ground was in ruins.

Zhang Da was also heartbroken: "Have you seen it? Gambling harms others and yourself! Children must not imitate other people's gambling!"

Rui Mengmeng reminded: "Boss, the children who need your education are not here today."

"Ah, I'm used to it. Next time you see a casino, remember to remind me to take them in and educate them." Zhang Da also casually stuffed another coin in, and as expected, he lost money for two more newspapers.

"I think it's just because of your poor skills." Ye Yan confidently inserted a coin and pulled the joystick, then inserted another coin, and then pulled the joystick again. The expression on his face gradually solidified.

Ye Yan punched the console and said angrily: "This thing is broken! At least I didn't lose money when I played before!"

Zhang Da also patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "Wonderful performance, God of Gamblers."

Ye Yan said awkwardly: "Mistake, mistake, this may be my first time playing here and I'm not used to it. How about Mengmeng lend me a hundred?"

"I can give them all to you." Rui Mengmeng had no interest in slot machines and subconsciously felt that they were not a good thing.

"Happy, I'll pay you back ten times if you win!" Ye Yan took the money and put in the coin and pulled the lever seriously.

"Ha...haha." Ye Yan laughed awkwardly, "Actually, I want to demonstrate the dangers of gambling in person. It's easy to get addicted when you lose money. Even if you borrow money, you still want to get your money back, so don't get involved in this thing!"

Rui Mengmeng complained: "I told you that the children who need education are not here."

Ye Yan couldn't stop laughing: "Okay, I lost because I wasn't good at studying."

"Remember to pay me back two thousand." Rui Mengmeng added the knife. She felt that Ye Yan had just become addicted to gambling and should be taught a lesson.

Ye Yan's shoulders slumped. 2,000 Baileys is a small amount of money, and the problem is a bit embarrassing. He changed the topic: "It will take some time for the flag demons to figure out the situation here. Do you want to change some change?"

"Don't worry, we still have a big killer." Zhang Da also pushed Artoria forward, "Come on."

"Oh." Artoria still doesn't understand the fun of this kind of machine, but as long as she wins, right?

She put in a coin, imitated Zhang Daye and pulled the joystick, and the patterns in the three display boxes quickly rotated...

Click, click, the rotation stopped, but there was no prize.

"Hiss~" Zhang Da also took a breath. Artoria couldn't even win. How low is the probability of winning this thing? Is Lao Shahei too overly concerned?

"One more time." Arturia held the coin and put it seriously into the coin slot, with a serious expression on her face, "Now!"

Clang, Clang, Clang! The rotation stopped, and three identical banana crocodile patterns stayed in the display frame. The machine in front of me made a burst of exciting music, and a large number of coins poured out like running water, and it was quickly filled up.

The money basket below was overflowing.

At the same time, the announcement also sounded: "Congratulations to machine No. 4 for winning the first prize!"

"First prize! Someone actually won the first prize!"

“This is the first time I’ve seen it!”

Some nearby gamblers gathered around, some exclaimed, some clapped and congratulated, and some immediately occupied the two machines next to them, hoping to try their luck.

As a lottery winner, Artoria smiled, not because she won money, but simply because she won: "Is that all right?"

"Too strong!" Zhang Daye, Rui Mengmeng and Ye Yan each gave a thumbs up, and then began to collect the loot.

At the same time, Zhang Da also agreed that when he goes to the casino to educate the little lolita, he must not take Artoria with him, otherwise it will easily have the opposite effect.

The staff of the casino showed a look of astonishment. In fact, they have worked here for so long and have never seen anyone win the jackpot. Generally speaking, if you can play this game without making a profit or losing money, you are very lucky. If you have ordinary luck, which one?

Didn't you lose all the change in your pocket and leave in despair?

Just in case, two staff members decided to come over and take a look.

Zizzi~ka...

Before the two of them could say hello to Zhang Daye and the others, they saw two clusters of electric sparks erupting from the machine, and the patterns in the three display frames began to rotate randomly.

The staff breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that the winner was the result of a broken machine. It was not that they had adjusted the wrong winning probability today: "Sorry, guest, this machine is out of order. We need to repair it immediately. Please try another one to play."

?terribly sorry."

"What about the reward just now?" Rui Mengmeng asked, holding the money basket, "We didn't break the machine, right?"

The staff felt the eyes of other gamblers and said quickly: "No, no, no, it seems to be an internal failure. Of course, our casino is responsible for it. The bonus is still valid."

"That's good." Zhang Da also carried a heavy basket of money. He couldn't tell how much the coins were with his eyesight. "I feel like I have enough money. I can try other ways to play."

But Tom grabbed the hem of his clothes, waved the coins in his hand, and pointed to an empty slot machine with a pitiful expression.

Zhang Da also smiled and said: "Okay, let's wait until you finish playing."

Tom happily jumped on the stool and started tossing the coins.

The patterns rotated, and the first one was fixed as an apple, the second one was the same, and the third one was an apple again. The machine sounded a prompt tone of "Congratulations on winning the prize."

Then, a large pile of red apples came out of the coin spit, piled up into a hill, and buried Tom completely.

The onlookers were dumbfounded. How to do it? Does this machine have food rewards?

The staff was also confused. We didn’t remember putting apples in it!

Gululu, a few apples rolled down, and Tom poked his head out of the pile of apples with a confused look on his face. Is this considered a win or a loss?

Artoria's eyes lit up, she reached out and took the red apple from Tom's head, and took a bite. It was crisp, sweet and juicy, and tasted great.

"It's delicious!" Artoria smiled with satisfaction, "So this is the real grand prize?"

"I don't think so." Zhang Da also took Tom out. Just as the staff came to inspect the machine again, he greeted, "Pack these apples for us."

"Ah? Ah, yes!" The staff didn't react for a moment. In theory, these apples were prizes they won at the casino, so it seemed okay to help them pack them away. Even though the casino didn't know there was such a prize.

"Tom, let's do it again?" Artoria picked up Tom and put him in front of a new machine.

Tom hesitated and tried again, so another machine needed to be repaired, and Artoria harvested a lot of oranges.

The staff almost went crazy. Those who knew it said they were a casino, and those who didn't knew it thought it was a fruit shop! But they had no choice but to report the matter to the store manager.

"Could it be some special ability user who came here to cause trouble?" The store manager thought of this possibility. Anyway, all the unexplainable things can be explained by applying Devil Fruit.

"What should I do, manager? Should I kick them out?"

"No, no, we have no evidence that they are causing trouble, and the adult is not here today. It will be very troublesome to easily provoke a person with abilities, so we can't do it forcefully." The store manager thought for a while and said, "I advise them to try something else.

How to play, and then look for opportunities to invite them to the VIP room.”

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Yes." The clerk walked out in a hurry, but the plan did not go smoothly.

At Artoria's request, Tom shook out a series of fruits such as bananas, mangoes, cherries, oranges, lemons, kiwis, etc. from several slot machines at once.

The onlookers were lucky enough to get one or two pieces of fruit, and they watched the cat's performance with great interest. More and more people gathered, and almost all the gambling games stopped. The dealers could only stand at the gaming table.

look on in despair.

"This won't work!" The staff became anxious, but they couldn't drive everyone away at once. At first, they waited for Tom to use one before 'repairing' it. Finally, the store manager made the decision and simply replaced the machine.

Stop everything.

This approach aroused dissatisfaction among the gamblers, but they did not dare to say anything. After all, it was Crocodile's venue, and face had to be given.

Anyway, I’ve seen the excitement and got some fruit, so I’m not losing money today.

The store manager came over personally to apologize: "I'm extremely sorry, customer, these machines may not be very convenient today. Why don't you try another method?"

"Isn't the quality too inferior?" Zhang Daye said casually, "Okay, okay, let's go look elsewhere. As compensation, is it okay for you to arrange for a few people to move things with us?"

"Yes, no problem, no problem!" The store manager quickly called some people over to move the fruit, and asked them to keep an eye on these people.

As a result, a strange team appeared in the casino, four people and a cat each holding fruits, eating and wandering around the casino, followed by a dozen big men in suits and leather shoes, each holding a big basket.

Whenever someone in front shouts "orange!" or "banana!" people holding corresponding fruits will quickly come forward. After delivering the fruits, they will rejoin the group. The scene is weird but harmonious.

The store manager looked at this strange team from a distance and was puzzled: "Why did it become like this?"
