Chapter 263 I Have No Interest in the Magnet-Magnet Fruit 2
"The garbage dump and the boy are quite similar to the scene when we first met."
Lynch smiled and looked away.
Robin smiled as well. In a blink of an eye, it was already six years ago. Six years ago, they met on Nangako Island in the West Sea, and then they walked all the way here. Robin sometimes wondered what his life would be like if he hadn't met Lynch that day? Perhaps the answer was in the "prophecy book" that Lynch had said he had read.
But she wasn't going to ask.
The bandits and robbers along the way naturally couldn't stop Lin Qi and his team. There was no need for Lin Qi and Hancock to take action. Any of the Nine Snake warriors in the team could strike down the scumbags of this level. The girls didn't even need to use the armed color domineering. They could just rely on the boxing skills they had learned since childhood in Amazon Lily to beat up the bullies who blocked their way into the scrap metal pile.
In this way, everyone easily approached the main city of the island - the royal city where the palace was located.
The towering city walls are visible in the distance.
Outside the wall, there are old wooden houses similar to slums. From time to time, you can see people carrying baskets full of scrap metal bargaining with merchants at the city gate.
Compared to the bandits, mountain bandits, and pirates that I met along the way, the poor and homeless people in the slums near the royal city obviously... looked very weak in combat power, and they didn't have the kind of fierce and reckless temperament in their eyes. The ones I met before were ferocious outlaws, and the ones in front of me looked more like skinny slaves with pale faces.
Even Hancock's expression changed when he saw this scene.
You know, she was almost kidnapped and turned into a slave, and she might even have become a plaything of the Celestial Dragons.
Although Sandasonia, Marigrud and other female warriors had seen this kind of situation many times along the way, they still found it shocking. In their Nine Snakes, everyone only had differences in strength, but not such a gap between the rich and the poor...
“Boom!”
There was an explosion not far away, and Lynch and others were a little surprised, thinking that pirates were attacking the city. They thought that the pirates here were playing too wildly. It would be fine if they just attacked the surrounding areas of the island, and the royal family and the army would probably be too lazy to pay attention to them. But if they attacked the royal city directly, the royal nobles would have to use the navy to deal with the pirates.
The people in the slums were not surprised. A hunchbacked old woman said calmly, "It's not a pirate, it's 'Iron Decision'..."
"'Iron Decision'?" Lin Qiqi asked, retracting his glance behind him.
The hunchbacked old woman explained: "It's just to make a simple bomb out of scrap copper and iron to execute the criminals..."
Similar to shooting and cannon execution... Robin nodded. She was still controlling the other three flower clones scattered around the island in real time, so she spoke as little as possible.
"Because of the recent 'big martial arts competition', there are people being 'ruled' every other day..." The old woman sighed and shook her head.
"The South China Sea is indeed worthy of being called the Sea of Machinery. Even the execution of a person is so creative..." Lin Qi also sighed. Scrap metal can be made into a simple bomb for execution. It's really a good idea. "By the way, that big competition, is it the one that the newspapers hinted at to find a husband for your princess, which attracted many pirates?"
"This..." The hunchbacked old woman was speechless.
She looked up at the handsome young man, as well as Hancock, Robin, Sandasonia, Marigold, and several girls with good looks and good figures standing beside him...
"The way she looked at you just now, Giorno, was so funny~" After leaving, Sandasonia teased, "Does Giorno also want to participate in the competition for the princess?"
Marigrude asked in confusion, "Don't we have Princess Xu Lun?"
Hancock and Robin both glanced at Lynch, who said indifferently, "Even if I come, I don't necessarily have to participate; even if I participate, I may not win; even if I win, I don't necessarily have to be with that princess...what's her name in the newspaper?"
"Princess Eric Olsen." Robin reminded.
"Yes, even if I win, it doesn't necessarily mean anything will happen between me and Princess Olsen." Lynch added.
They were almost at the city gate when a figure staggered out from the slums on the roadside and fell down in front of everyone with a bang.
He is a skinny old man.
A few young men with unfriendly faces chased after him, and immediately stopped when they saw Lin Qi and his gang.
"Hey! Stop meddling in other people's business!" The young people looked at Lynch and others with a little hostility and cursed.
Hancock ignored the old man and was about to kick him aside to get out of the way when Lynch leaned over and picked him up. "Are you okay?"
"Ahem, ahem, I'm fine..." The skinny old man looked pale, without a trace of blood, and it was obvious that he had been malnourished for a long time. "Thank you, thank you."
"If it's okay," Lynch smiled, "just take the paw out of my arms, okay?"
The old man's face changed! The old man's skinny hand slipped into Lin Qi's clothes at some point, as if he wanted to steal a wallet or valuables.
Seeing that his move was exposed, the old man's skinny palm immediately reached out for Lynch's neck, and turned into a beast-like hoof on the way... However, let alone Lynch, Hancock, Robin, Boa's two sisters and the other Nine Snakes warriors did not react at all and were not worried about him at all.
Dang! The hoof stabbed at Lin Qi's neck, but it collided with a dull sound, as if it hit a piece of iron.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"What?!" The old man's already pale face was full of surprise.
The young people who had chased the old man out were also horrified. They had never expected such a situation.
Lynch held the old man's hoof, stood up straight, and casually lifted him up in front of him to look at him.
“Damn it! Put me down!” The old man quickly transformed into the appearance of a black wild boar, with two long fangs sticking out of his mouth. He stared fiercely at Lin Qi who was holding him in the air like a doll. But after struggling for a while, he stopped panting, “Huh, huh… I’m so tired…”
"A skinny little wild boar is out robbing people?" Lin Qi said without turning his head. "Is this old man always like this, kid?"
Robin, Hancock and the others looked back, and saw behind them, a young man with short red hair holding a dirty mechanical doll in his hand, looking at them expressionlessly.
The red-haired boy said coldly, "Only outsiders like you would be fooled. Everyone knows who Old Neil is."
"Damn Kidd! Don't come and delay our business!" The crowd pretending to chase the old man was excited.
"Stinky brat... huh, huh..."
The old man holding the wild boar in Lynch's hand cursed a few words and then started panting.
Lynch threw him aside and turned to ask the future "supernova" Eustace Kidd, "Did you follow us all the way here just to warn us?"
"Hmph! Stop being so conceited," Kidd weighed the tattered doll in his hand and gave a mocking smile, "I just want to get a piece of the pie..."
Then he was punched on the head by a female Nine Snake warrior at the end of the team.
"It hurts! You stinky woman, why did you hit me!"
Bang! "Hit again?!"
My family believed in some scam about public network, universal shareholding, and Yun xx. I talked to him earnestly for more than an hour, but it was too late to type after I finished talking...囧
