Chapter 195: long time no see

Chapter 195 Long time no see
With just a word from Keynes, the imposing army directly knelt down in the street regardless of its face.
Under the gaze of many eyes, Matthew lowered his head slightly and did not speak.
But his move was enough to give Keynes an explanation.
"roll."
Keynes said blankly.
Matthew gave him face, and he didn't let Matthew continue to embarrass him, and gave him a step forward.
"Okay, Lord Keynes."
Matthew got up, smiled at Keynes, then turned decisively, and led the team away from North Street.
Before leaving, he even took away the bodies of the three Malet brothers.
As for the act of kneeling and apologizing just now, it was nothing to him.
That Bacardi Maud...
Being able to be called a distinguished guest by Keynes, and paying so much attention, it is very likely that he placed a high-priced order to Thomas Shipyard.
And a part of the revenue from each order of Thomas Shipyard will be handed over to the king who values ​​money more than anything.
In the face of this kind of relationship, if you have a bad relationship with Maude...
He was worthy of the Mord Pirates, he was afraid that Keynes would go to the king's side and say a few ill-informed things.
At that time, most of them will be sent to the [hanging prison] side.
Even if they commit suicide, they don't want to be tortured by [hanging prison] to make life worse than death.
Thinking of some horrible images, Matthew couldn't help but feel cold, and only hoped that Keynes would not trouble him afterwards.
Matthew retired quickly.
The soldiers accompanying him said nothing.
They have become accustomed to this kind of face-off situation because of disputes over interests.
In the situation just now, if Keynes hadn't come forward, then they would inevitably encounter the Maud Pirates.
but……
The soldiers shuddered as they thought of Maude's aura that had been soaked in blood.
To be honest, they didn't want to face Maude at all.
It may be a blessing to be able to solve this problem by kneeling.
Above Cross North Street.
Maude and others watched the army leave.
The performance of this group of soldiers just now made Maude and the others realize that Keynes's identity may be very unusual.
After coming forward to persuade Matthew and other soldiers to retreat, Keynes smiled apologetically at Maud.
"Mr. Maude, please don't take it to heart."
"It's okay."
Maude put away the chidori.
Had it not been for Keynes, he would inevitably have to do it again.
In Dick City, if you just kill pirates or bounty hunters, there will be basically no trouble in the follow-up.
But if they do something to the army, then they are probably going to build ships elsewhere.
Even if the consequences can be foreseen, Maude would never give up and keep his hands in that situation.
If the power from the pursuit can't be used at this time, what's the point of his insistence on becoming stronger?
Pirates should do what they want to do in accordance with their heart.
After helping Maud solve the matter, Keynes greeted a few words before returning to the shipyard.
In the near future, he will devote all his energy to Maud's astronomical new ship.
After Keynes left, Maude and his group walked towards the cross East Street.
Around the street, what happened just now caused the residents to look at Maud and others in a fundamental change.
This group of people can make Keynes of Thomas Shipyard so preferentially, certainly not small.
Under the gaze of many eyes, Maude and the others left North Street and came to the center of Cross Street.
Lafayette looked back at the direction of North Street, and said softly: "The behavior of the group of soldiers just now surprised me."
"I didn't expect them to... this country is a bit strange."
Maude looked at the bustling streets.
Betty, who was walking in the front, opened her mouth and hesitated, but in the end she said nothing.
In this country, money is the most important thing.
Not only can it be used to exempt crimes, but it can also be used to buy life.
Here, the value of everyone can even be measured by the amount of money.
It is like a reward for measuring the value of pirates, and like the selling price and auction price for measuring the value of slaves.
What the king did was to enlarge the world as much as possible.
And such a place is precisely a paradise for some people.
Under Betty's leadership, Maude and his party came to a large-scale tavern on East Street.
Before coming over, Betty had roughly introduced Maude and the others about the situation on East Street.
It can be understood that East Street is the only place in Dick City that cannot be interfered by the army.
Therefore, even if it is robbed and murdered here, the army will not come to find fault.
It's just that from the moment Keynes took the lead for Maud, even if Maud did the same thing again in other neighborhoods, the army responsible for maintaining order would no longer ask Maud for trouble.
Money is power.
This kind of truth can be fully reflected in the kingdom of Ahab.
Knowing that East Street is an impossible place, Maude and Lafayette's minds suddenly became active.
They pushed open the door of the tavern and went straight in.
The original noisy tavern gradually quieted down because of their arrival.
The eyes of everyone in the tavern were on Maude.
As long as the bounty and well-known pirates, no matter where they go, as long as they are there, they will inevitably attract attention.
These eyes are mostly in awe.
They are afraid of Maude.
And Maude does have the capital that scares them.
Maude scanned the pirates in the tavern.
Swept by Maude's gaze, most of the pirates bowed their heads to avoid that gaze.
Maude didn't care about the ostrich reaction of these pirates. When he saw a man with two chains tied to his body, his eyes stopped consciously.
Immediately, he withdrew his gaze without a trace and walked towards the empty seat in the tavern.
The man with the chain on his body is Buffalo.
"Oh, I'm not very lucky, I don't seem to be able to go to the casino later."
Buffalo quietly glanced at Maud and his party who were seated, thinking to himself.
Had it not been for a few more drinks, he himself would have been in the casino ten minutes ago.
Meeting Maude in the tavern because of a difference in thoughts made Buffalo feel bad luck.
"By the way, he doesn't recognize me."
Buffalo suddenly thought of something.
"Then what am I worrying about?"
Buffalo realized it and couldn't help laughing, revealing the Don Quixote family mark on his white teeth.
After Maude and the others took their seats, the voices in the tavern showed signs of recovery.
Maude didn't pay much attention to Buffalo, but he recognized Buffalo's identity.
The hair style and beard like the blades of the electric fan are simply guiding lights.
"Could it be that Baby-5, who has weapon fruits, is also on this island?"
Maude's mood floated.
He remembers that Buffalo and Baby-5 of the Don Quixote family often act together.
If Baby-5 is also on this island, then...
At this moment, the pub door was pushed open.
A tall man in a coat walked in, stopped and scanned the door, and went straight to the wine table where Maude was.
The man looked at Maude and grinned: "It's been a long time, Maude."
"Arthur, you're not dead?"
Maude looked up at the man in front of him, somewhat surprised.
Hearing the words, Arthur, the funeral director of the original Mad Hatter Town, twitched the corner of his mouth and pointed to the last empty seat beside the wine table.
"This sounds harsh, do you mind if I sit down?"
"Mind."
Maude didn't give any face.
"..."
Arthur's expression was a little stiff.
After a light cough, he cheeked and sat down directly.
In order to avoid being driven directly by Maude, he took the initiative to find a topic.
"Maud, you also came for Devil Fruit?"
"Ok."
Maude nodded calmly.
Lafayette at the same table looked calm.
It seemed that they came to Leviathan not to build ships, but for the devil's fruit that Arthur revealed on his own initiative.
However, this news is no longer a secret in Dick City.
Arthur didn't doubt that he had him, with such a look on his face, he quickly glanced at Bailey who was occupying a seat, wondering if this skunk was the beast that Maud used to compete in?
Without thinking, Arthur lowered his voice.
"It is said that the devil fruit was found on an island called the Little Garden."
I am a waste pig. . Waste waste waste pigs. . Timed out again. . Ugh. . Cheer up and be ! ! !
