The Black Duke of the Pirate

There seemed to be a hot light flashing in his eyes, but Clovis didn't notice it.

"Okay." Clovis stood up from the chair and took the long sword at his waist, "You protect my safety. If you get rid of Ketok, I will be the new king. I will satisfy everything you want."

Require."

Palace Swordsman...Is this about to enter a power struggle in Polkaia? Dawn couldn't help but whisper in her heart, after waiting for so long, doing so many things, and finally reaching this point, the next step is to fight in Keto

In the struggle between Crovis and Clovis, he strengthened his armed forces.

"I am willing to serve you, Your Highness." Mingxia lowered his head and said in a deep voice. The scar on his left eye was deliberately covered by the tiger hat. If it were lifted at this time, it would be extremely red.

"Barron." Clovis turned his eyes to the other side. Barron stepped forward and bowed: "Your Highness."

"How's the deal with Reef going?"

"They are unwilling to engage in internal fighting within the kingdom."

At dawn, Clovis looked for a reef...?

The Reef is one of the three major gangs in the North Sea. The Reef is different from Mailin. Mailin's main business is drug and arms trading, while the Reef's main business is assassinations, intermediaries, and information trafficking. The Reef has many members, but the members

The main body of the organization is mostly composed of two business members: intermediaries and information sales. There are only a few members in the assassination business, but every member is an elite in the reef.

"Add triple the price." Clovis's mood did not change after hearing this, as if these were things he expected.

"Your Highness." Barron's voice suddenly became louder: "It's not advisable to have too much contact with people from the Reef."

"Forget it." Clovis replied, seemingly frustrated, "Looking for the reef may have been the wrong choice."

Barron turned his eyes, glanced at Mingxiao, and then said: "Shavin may have been a member of the "Reef" for a long time."

Clovis was shocked and felt that he had really made a wrong decision before. There was a hint of evil emotion in his eyes: "You mean that our contact with the reef has been known to the old guy Ketok.

Already?"

"High probability." Barron nodded.

"Reinhardt, what do you think?" Clovis suddenly turned around and asked him. Dawn looked up and replied, "The reef may be one of Kotok's trump cards."

These words they said were not evaded in front of Dawn. Dawn was temporarily unsure of Clovis's true thoughts, but Clovis was born into a royal family and was in dangerous situations all year round. The city's scheming was not as weak as it appeared.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to be as stable as a mountain in the past two years.

Clovis said thoughtfully, "My father's health has been getting worse and worse recently."

He suddenly changed the subject and returned to his seat: "Maybe he will be in a coffin soon."

Barron was shocked, knowing that a certain balance that Ketok and Clovis had maintained was about to be broken. Whoever struck first to eliminate the other might win the final victory.

"We can't count on the reef." Barron said in a deep voice. Clovis raised his head and stared at the dawn, and suddenly said: "Reinhardt, if you do it, what is the success rate?"

Assassinate Kotok?

If that old guy was so easy to kill, he would have been killed long ago. Why would he wait until now?

Dawn was silent for a while. If he succeeded, everything would be fine. If he failed, he might be sold by Clovis on the spot.

This is certain.

Is this why he deliberately told himself about the "reef"? Do you want to refuse... At dawn, he felt a bit stuck.

As a prince, Clovis is not a fool. Dawn uses Clovis to achieve certain goals, and Clovis will naturally use Dawn to achieve certain measures. Letting him assassinate Ketok is both a test and a

A kind of exploration of his true strength.

He didn't want to be a chess piece that could be discarded at any time, so he frowned and replied in a deep voice: "Your Highness, I don't want to participate in the palace struggle of the kingdom. I am only here to protect your safety."

Dawn raised her head and stared at the change in Clovis's eyes, and then said: "Besides, there is a swordsman Shavin beside Ketok, and no one can get close."

Clovis looked a little uncertain. He stared at him for a while and then asked: "You fought with Chauvin last time. How does his strength compare with yours?"

"He can become invisible at any time after eating the transparent fruit. It is too easy to kill someone." Dawn did not answer directly. As for the devil fruit, as the prince of the kingdom, he naturally knew it.

"What if he wants to assassinate me?" Clovis said suddenly.

"Without my protection, His Highness will die. Without me, he has a 50% chance of failure."

Clovis was slightly shocked and fell silent, the emotion in his eyes well concealed.

If Kotok had sent Chauvin to assassinate Clovis before, he would have most likely succeeded, but Clovis didn't have the slightest fear. Was he really not afraid of death?

He recalled in his mind the scene when he first met Chauvin, who happened to be not far from Clovis's mansion. This mansion had always been heavily guarded. Logically speaking, Chauvin had the invisibility ability of the transparent fruit. If he wanted to

Sneaking in is also very simple. Wouldn't it be easy to kill Clovis?

Why on earth did Ketok never take action? He had a strange feeling in his heart, always feeling that things would not be that simple.

"This is why I invited you here. You just need to protect my safety until I become the new king." Clovis's eyes moved slightly and he looked at Dawn and replied.

Mingxiao naturally had no objection. In addition to teaching the prince swordsmanship, the palace swordsman's duty was to be responsible for the prince's safety.

The three of them stayed together for a while, and then they were arranged to stay in a room in the mansion at dawn.

At night, the palace was brightly lit. At dawn, after having had enough wine and food, a man prepared to stroll around.

In the courtyard of Clovis Palace, independent courtyards are linked to each other. The curtains on the walls emit golden light at night. These golden lights cover most of the palace. Even if the lights are not lit, the surrounding environment is like daytime.

He walked for a while and suddenly saw a figure appearing in front of him.

"Who are you?" The man suddenly spoke, his tone a little cold and wary.

Only then did Ming Xiao clearly see the person in front of him. She was a blond woman with blue eyes. Although she was a little shorter than herself, she was still close to 1.8 meters tall. Her upper body was wearing a light blue open-front lace-up vest with a tie on her chest.

Wearing a golden bow tie, a pink shirt underneath, a tight skirt of the same color, crimson patterned high-heeled boots, and a 1.1-meter thin sword hanging from the left waist, in the style of a foil

.

She looked warily at the dawn that suddenly appeared in front of her.

She has blond hair and blue eyes, and a particularly delicate face. Coupled with this kind of dress, Mingxiao's eyes can't help but keep looking at her.

"Pervert, what are you looking at?" the blond girl yelled, then she took out the foil sword from her waist with her right hand and stabbed at Dawn: "Look at the sword!"
