Pirates: Your Emperor is Back!

Yaruga, the tavern.

Although today's customers are not locals, and even the boss himself is not there, the place is still lively.

Several tables in the tavern were full, and there were even people at the edge of the table.

These humans and murlocs put the Berry they found in the ship into the counter drawer, and then took a few barrels of wine from the tavern warehouse.

Alcohol is a very comforting thing, especially when there is nothing to do.

When the irritating liquid is drawn down the throat, they will have a feeling that they are still alive.

They clinked glasses and laughed.

It was a wry smile, but also a vent-like smile.

It was hard to imagine that murlocs and humans could sit together and clink glasses and drink.

...

At the edge of the bar, a human and another tall murloc raised their glasses to each other.

The former was the young man who had contact with the old man of the mayor yesterday. He was one of the few human beings among the slaves who could have normal contact with outsiders.

At the same time, a tall and thin murloc moved an unopened barrel of new wine out of the warehouse.

He was about to open the seal, when the tall murloc by the bar suddenly slammed the table hard.

"Hey, Wall!"

The tall murloc pouted his mouth and said, "Pay first."

The tall and thin murloc named Wall was a little dissatisfied, and muttered: "Boss Huoka, no one will care about it, and the money may be useful to us in the future..."

"If you can't pay the money, then bear with it and don't drink!"

Murloc Huoka said firmly: "Remember, Wall, this is the bottom line that must never be crossed, because we are not pirates or fugitives!"

Wall had no choice but to take out a few Berries from his pocket and put them in an unattended counter drawer.

Then, I turned around and went for a drink with my friends.

The young man shook his head with a wry smile, "It's really strict, Boss Huoka."

Hoka sighed.

"No way, they are too young."

He stretched out his hand and made a gesture, "Let's just talk about Wall. When I first met him in Mary Gioia, he was not as tall as this bar."

Huoka smiled, recalling the past.

"In a flash, many years have passed."

"The sudden freedom is a blessing and a test for young people, and I cannot let them lead astray."

The young man lowered his head and said slowly: "I'm sorry, it's all to take care of us, otherwise you should have left with that Fisher Tiger..."

"Don't say that, friend."

Huoka said seriously: "We once swore that we would find a place to live together."

"A shelter?"

The young man laughed at himself, rolled up his sleeves, and the scarlet "Tianxiang Dragon's Hoof" brand on them was clearly visible.

That is a trace of shame that cannot be erased.

"Where will accept us?"

"There will be." Huoka comforted: "If the great route doesn't work, we will climb over the Reversing Mountain and go to the four seas. There will always be a place where we can settle down."

The young man nodded, his expression slightly relaxed.

"hope so."

Then, a noise nearby caught their attention.

Several murlocs moved the tables and chairs aside, clearing an open space.

Two of the murlocs stood on the field, each with their bare hands, ready to fight.

It was a game unique to the murloc festival, and it was called "Alazama", which literally translates to the murloc team fighting arena.

The two parties involved fight each other in the ring, can not use anything except strength and skill, the person who throws the opponent out of the ring first wins.

After the ring, the winner and loser will drink wine to commemorate their mutual friendship.

Although it is not a festival at this moment, this kind of game is indeed a good way to relax.

"Oh, here we come!"

"Play better!"

"I'll be next!"

"Haha, you're already drunk, so don't get involved!"

"..."

boom!

A murloc was thrown out of the field, he laughed loudly, and was pulled up from the ground by the winner.

The two hooked their shoulders and gulped down two large drafts of beer.

They really haven't been this relaxed in a long time.

Seeing this, the young man smiled and said, "Boss Huoka, don't you want to play?"

Huoka raised his eyebrows and asked the murlocs beside him, "Does anyone want to fight me?"

Hearing this, the murlocs around quickly shook their heads and said, "Don't come, Boss Huoka, it hurts you to beat someone!"

If it weren't for his extreme strength, Huoka wouldn't have become the boss of everyone, let alone lead a large group of people out of the hell of Marie Gioia.

"Boys!"

Huoka laughed and cursed a few times, and continued to drink with the young man.

At this moment, the door of the tavern was suddenly pushed open.

It was a man in golden armor, followed by another man with a cigar in his mouth, and a little girl with blue hair.

This scene made the originally noisy tavern quiet down in an instant.

Then, the man who walked in first suddenly said a word without beginning and end:

"A pigeon walked into the tavern."

"..."

No one answered, because none of them knew what that sentence meant.

Seeing this situation, the expression on the man's face became disappointing.

He muttered, "Hey, it's such an interesting joke, why don't you respond?"

Crocodile frowned and said in a low voice:

"Are you trying to make us laugh with a bad joke from eight hundred years ago?"

Rowan: "..."

There seems to be some truth.

Crocodile said disdainfully: "Tsk, what a majestic emperor!"

Along the way, his heart was already full of resentment, and he was even more unhappy with Luo Wen's behavior.

The emperor eight hundred years ago was like a desert.

Swinging a fist down will leave traces, but as long as the strong wind blows, everything will remain the same.

Crocodile feels that this kind of person is often the most difficult type to deal with.

Because they only have their own goals in their eyes, they will not accept soft and hard!

Sure enough, Luo Wen was not angry when he heard the words, but smiled and said: "Compared with the serious court, I still like the atmosphere here better!"

Crocodile raised his eyebrows, "In that case, why don't you become an adventurer?"

Luo Wen thought about it seriously, and replied seriously:

"Because of responsibility."

As soon as this remark came out, Crocodile was obviously stunned for a moment, then glanced to the side, and muttered:

"Tsk, boring..."

Rowan looked around and observed the surrounding situation.

There are about thirty murlocs and a dozen humans here.

"What a lively banquet!"

Rowan's tone seemed interested.

When he saw the cleared space, he became even more excited.

"Is it Alazama? You are still playing this game!"

"It's really nostalgic..."

After saying that, Rowan walked straight to the open space regardless of the surprised or hostile eyes of the people around him.

He took off his helmet and the armor on his upper body, revealing a body that was not considered strong, but still had strong muscles.

Twisting his arm, Rowan waved at the murloc in front of him and said:

"Come on, let's do two tricks!"

That murloc was Wall.

He was a little puzzled, but the human man in front of him was already ready to fight with his bare hands.

Wall shook his head quickly and said, "Human, you will be hurt."

Alazama is a rough game of pure wrist strength.

In terms of strength alone, murlocs are ten times stronger than ordinary humans, so Alazama is very dangerous for humans' fragile bodies.

But Rowan didn't care about this, and still beckoned, signaling Wall to start as soon as possible.

"Then please be careful!"

Wal slightly bowed his body.

He planned to use brute force to push this inexplicable human being out of the ring, which would be good for everyone.

Swish!

Wall stepped forward, grabbing Rowan's shoulders with two big hands.

But at the moment when he was about to use his strength, he suddenly felt that the world was spinning in front of him.

boom!

By the time Wall reacted, he had been thrown out of the court heavily.

He lay down on the ground, looking at the human in disbelief.

I... lost?

This scene changed the faces of all the murlocs present, because they saw with their own eyes that the human man easily threw Wall out of the field.

Their eyes unconsciously looked at Huoka who was the leader.

Rowan noticed this.

He also turned his head to look at Huoka, moving his wrist.

"I remember, at the end of Alazama, the winners and losers would drink together and celebrate their friendship."

"so……"

Rowan hooked Huo Ka, "If I win to the end, how about we have a drink together?"
