Chapter 196: very natural

Chapter 196 is natural
"small garden?"
A gleam of light flashed in Maude's eyes.
He immediately became interested when he heard Arthur talk about Devil Fruit.
Pretending to know this, just want Arthur to continue talking.
I never thought that this devil fruit was actually related to Xiao Huayuan.
"Yes, that is a very interesting Taikoo island."
After Arthur sat down, he took an empty glass very well, and poured himself a glass of wine.
Now, the young man sitting in front of him is no longer the hard work in the weapons shop, but a great pirate who offers a reward of over 100 million.
The change in identity also caused a substantial change in Arthur's attitude towards Maud.
In the past, he ignored or despised the existence of Maude.
Now, he had to face up, and even look up at Maude's existence.
Upon hearing what Arthur said, Jaya glanced at Maude subconsciously.
The small garden on Taikoo Island is something Maude once told her.
Arthur played with the wine glass, looked up at Maude with a calm face, and continued:
"According to the survivor who brought the Devil Fruit back, the island is full of threatening ancient giant creatures, and...two powerful giants."
"..."
Maude pretended to be interested.
In fact, he knew all these things.
However, he wanted to know Arthur's motive for coming to him to say these things.
Seeing Maud's interest, Arthur felt calm, first raised his glass and took a sip of wine, and then immediately went on to talk about the little garden.
"Maud, those two giants are very unusual, do you know the Giant Pirates?"
"do not know."
Maude shook his head very cooperatively.
Bailey looked at Maude, and inexplicably had a subtle feeling that made him quite familiar.
It has nothing to do with me anyway.
Bailey thought to himself, he picked up a piece of meat and ate it.
Arthur looked at Maude and said seriously:
"That was a pirate group formed by giants a hundred years ago. They were rampant on the sea unimpeded, and wherever they went, they burned one village after another."
"In just a few years, countless people have died in their hands, which shocked the world at that time."
"And the two giants in the small garden are the captains of the Giant Soldier Pirate Group, the green ghost Dongli and the red ghost Broki!"
"Nowadays, the giant pirate group led by them has fallen apart, but their wanted order that was rewarded with a reward of 100 million is still valid."
At this point, Arthur's eyes showed light.
Maude took a sip of wine and said lightly: "Then?"
"Two hundred million."
Arthur raised and said seriously: "Their head is worth 200 million. Are you interested?"
"..."
Maude laughed and said nothing.
Arthur didn't care either, and said in a slightly bewitching tone:
"If the Giant Soldier Pirate Group is healthy, it would be more difficult to take away the two-million-dollar head of the Green Ghost and the Red Ghost, but they are now lonely and very suitable for starting. "
"You and I cooperate, as long as you take some measures, it is not difficult to kill them. The bounty received afterwards is seven and three. How about?"
Was it for this thing?
Maude thought to himself, and immediately changed the subject lightly, and asked: "Do you know what power the devil fruit brought back from the small garden is?"
Seeing Maude changed the subject, Arthur was a little disappointed, but he still answered Maude's question.
"I heard that it is an ancient species of the animal family. I don't know if it is true or not."
"Ancient species..."
Maudemo rubbed his chin and instantly thought of the island condition of the small garden.
There are countless ancient creatures living there, including various dinosaurs.
If the devil fruit in Dick City is really an ancient species of the animal family, and then it was brought back from the small garden...
Wouldn't it be that the devil fruits that were planted in ancient animals were all produced in small gardens?
While Mord was thinking about it, Jaya curiously asked: "Why don't those who have found the Devil Fruits eaten them directly?"
Maude glanced at Jaya, who was curious about the matter, and smiled: "Because some people prefer real money than unknown power."
"Oh."
Jia Ya nodded.
Devil fruit can bring power, and having power can bring money.
The reason is very shallow, but that requires a process.
Therefore, it is also a choice that many people will make to exchange the unknown power that exists in the future in exchange for the money that can change the life of the future.
And on this island where money is supreme, it is the most normal thing to exchange devil fruits for money.
"Arthur, Little Garden is not on this route. If you want to attack the two giants, the premise is to get a permanent pointer to the small garden island."
Maude looked at Arthur, and inexplicably changed the topic from the devil fruit to the small garden.
Arthur was stunned for a moment, a little unable to keep up with Maude's thinking.
So, are you guys interested in Devil Fruits or the Bounty of Little Garden Giant?
Helpless, Arthur lowered his voice once again:
"During this time, many people came for the Devil Fruit of the Colosseum, but many people went straight to the small garden in order to get the bounty of the green ghost and the red ghost, which led to the permanent pointer of the small garden. A popular item."
At this point, Arthur showed a confident smile.
"But... I happen to have a permanent pointer for a small garden here."
"Oh?"
Maude's eyes shimmered slightly and curiously said: "Permanent pointer, we just came to the Great Channel. I only heard that the appearance of the permanent pointer looks like an hourglass, but I haven't seen it personally."
"It really looks like an hourglass."
Arthur took out the permanent pointer of the little garden from his pocket.
"Eh, it's more refined than expected, can you show me?"
Maude reached out to Arthur naturally.
Arthur didn't think much, and put the permanent pointer in the palm of Maude's stretched out hand.
Maude took the permanent pointer, put the permanent pointer in the pocket of his underwear more naturally, and then picked up the bottle more naturally and poured a glass of wine for Arthur.
As if he hadn't taken the permanent pointer at all just now.
"???"
Arthur looked at Maude blankly.
Above the wine table, only the sound of Bailey chewing meat was left.
"Maud?"
"Ok?"
Maude looked at Arthur in doubt, as if saying: What's the matter?
Arthur twitched his mouth and reminded: "The permanent pointer you put away just now...is mine."
"What permanent pointer?"
"..."
Arthur looked at Maude with an incredible look, and said every word: "The permanent pointer of the little garden!"
"Oh, this is what you are talking about, why, do you have a permanent pointer for the small garden?"
Maude slowly sliced ​​a piece of steak and calmly said: "Speaking of which, I have been on the Great Channel for a while, but I haven't even seen the permanent pointer, alas..."
"???"
Arthur looked at Maude in silence, as if he had met Maude for the first time.
Then, he looked at the other people at the same table.
Meet Arthur's gaze.
Lafayette tasted the signature spirits in the tavern at ease.
Jia Ya concentrated on cutting the steak for Bailey.
Jim and Bailey just eat meat.
Little guide Betty's head is almost buried under the table.
"..."
Arthur was speechless for a long time.
Inside the pub.
A man got up and paid the bill and left.
Out of the tavern, the man walked into a dim alley, raised his hand and rolled up his sleeves, revealing a watch-like phone worm.
After dialing a certain number.
The man lowered his voice and said, "Bacardi Mod is on Leviathan Island."
