Chapter 57 Long time no see(1/2)

Just with Keynes' words, the imposing army knelt down in the street regardless of their face.

With many eyes on, Matthew lowered his head slightly and did not speak.

But his actions were enough to give Keynes an explanation.

"roll."

Keynes said expressionlessly.

Matthew gave him face, and he would not let Matthew continue to be embarrassed, so he gave him a step.

"Okay, Lord Cairns."

Matthew stood up, laughed apologetically at Keynes, then turned around decisively, leading the team away from North Street.

Before leaving, he even did not forget to take away the bodies of the three Marlet brothers.

As for the kneeling and apologizing just now, it was nothing to him.

That Bacardi Maud...

Being able to be called a distinguished guest by Keynes and so valued is very likely to have placed a high-priced order from Thomas Shipyard.

And the benefits brought by every order from Thomas Shipyard will be handed over to the king who regards money as more important than anything.

In the face of this kind of relationship, if you get into evil with Maud...

He is not guilty of the Maud Pirates, but he is afraid that Cairns will go to the king to say a few bad things.

By then, 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 Cage] so much that life is worse than death.

When Matthew thought of some terrible scenes, he couldn't help but feel cold, hoping that Keynes would not cause trouble for him afterwards.

Matthew retreated very quickly.

The soldiers accompanying him didn't say anything.

They have become accustomed to this kind of situation of losing face due to disputes of interest.

In the situation just now, if Keynes had not come forward, they would inevitably have to meet the Maud Pirates.

but……

The soldiers recalled Maud's aura that was stained with countless blood, and couldn't help but shivered gently.

To be honest, they don't want to meet Maud at all.

It may be a blessing to be able to solve this problem by kneeling down.

Above Cross North Street.

Maud and others watched the army leave.

The performance of these soldiers just now made Maud and the others realize that Keynes' identity might be very unusual.

After coming forward to persuade Matthew and other soldiers to retreat, Keynes apologized and smiled at Mod.

"Mr. Mode, please don't take your displeasure just now."

"fine."

Maud put away the Chidori.

If Keynes hadn't come forward, he would have to take action again.

In Dick City, if you only kill pirates or bounty hunters, there will be basically no trouble in the future.

But if they attack the army, they probably have to build ships elsewhere.

Even if the consequences can be expected, Maud will never surrender or hold back in that case.

If the power you pursue cannot be used at this time, then what is the point of his insistence on becoming stronger?

Pirates should follow their original intentions and do what they want to do.

After helping Maud solve this, Keynes exchanged a few greetings and returned to the shipyard.

In the near future, he will devote all his energy to Maud's sky-high new ship.

After Cairns left, Maud and his group walked towards Cross East Street.

What happened just around the street made the residents' eyes look at Mode and others change in nature.

This group of people can make Keynes of Thomas Shipyard treat such favorable treatment, and must be quite good.

Under the gaze of many eyes, Maud and his team left North Street and came to the center of Cross Street.

Lafayette looked back at the direction of North Street and whispered: "I was very surprised by the actions of those soldiers just now."

"I didn't expect them to...there is a little strange in this country."

Maud looked at the prosperous and lively streets.

Betty, who was walking in front, opened her mouth and hesitated for a moment, 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 each person can even be measured by the amount of money.

It's like a reward order that measures the value of a pirate, or it's like a selling price and auction price that measures the value of a slave.

What the king did was nothing more than magnifying the miniature of the world as much as possible.

And such a place is precisely the paradise for some people.

Under Betty's leadership, Maud and his group came to a large tavern on East Street.

Before coming here, Betty had roughly introduced the situation on East Street to Maud and the others.

It can be understood that East Street is the only incapable place in Dick City without interference from the army.

Therefore, even if you rob and kill people here, there will be no incident in which the army comes to find fault.

However, from the moment Cairns made his debut for Maud, even if Maud committed the same thing again in other neighborhoods, the army responsible for maintaining order would not cause trouble for Maud again.

Money is power.

This truth can be fully reflected in the Kingdom of Ahab.

After knowing that East Street was an inability to go, Maud and Lafayette's thoughts suddenly became active.

They pushed open the tavern gate and walked straight in.

The originally noisy tavern gradually became quiet because of their arrival.

Everyone in the tavern was focused on Maud.

Any pirate with a high reputation, no matter where he goes, as long as he has a companion, will inevitably attract attention.

These eyes are mostly awe.

They are afraid of Maud.

And Maud does have the capital that scares them.

Maud glanced around the pirates in the tavern.

After being swept by Maud's gaze, most pirates lowered their heads to avoid the gaze.

Maud didn't care about the ostrich reactions of these pirates. When he saw a man with two chains tied to him, his eyes paused consciously.

Immediately, he withdrew his gaze without a trace and walked towards the empty seat in the tavern.

The man with chains tied to it was Bafaro.

"Oh, I'm not very lucky. It seems I can't go to the casino later."

Bafaro quietly glanced at Mod and his group who were sitting in their seats, thinking to himself.

If he hadn't greedy for a few more glasses of wine, he would have been in the casino ten minutes ago.

Bafaro felt very lucky when he met Maud in the tavern because of a difference in thought.

"By the way, he doesn't know me."

Bafaro suddenly thought of something.

"Then what am I worried about?"

Bafaro realized it and laughed so much that he couldn't help but laugh, revealing the mark of the Don Quixote family on his white teeth.

After Maud and the others took their seats, the voices in the tavern showed signs of recovery.

Maud did not pay much attention to Baffaro, but he recognized Baffaro's identity.

The hairstyle and beard that are like blades of the electric fan are simply a guide.

"Could it be that the baby-5, which has the fruit of the weapon, is also on this island?"

Mod's mood was floating.
To be continued...
