Chapter 214
The next day.
The whole world was stirred up by a small newspaper.
[Seven days later, the 'Apostles' group' will establish the 'Adventurers' Guild' near the waters of the Chambord Islands! ! 】
As soon as this newspaper headline came out, countless righteous people and evil people geared up and gathered towards the Chambord Islands.
……
New World, Dressrosa.
In a noisy casino, a blind man with his eyes closed and wearing a lavender kimono was killing everyone on the card table. On the entire card table, there was only a mountain of chips in front of him.
At this time, the croupier who was rolling the dice suddenly stopped what he was doing, looked at the blind man in front of him with a fierce look on his face, and shouted: "You blind man, you are a cheat!"
As soon as the dealer said this, not only the blind man was stunned, but also the other guests on the table were stunned.
A blind man becomes a cheat?What a joke!
The next second, the blind man slowly stood up from his seat and said in a deep voice: "Sir, if you can't afford to play, just exchange all my chips for Bailey, and I will leave right now. What do you think?"
Upon hearing this, the croupier sneered: "You want to take away the winnings you won? Are you daydreaming?"
After saying this, the croupier clapped his hands suddenly.
In an instant, a large group of strong men in black surrounded the table.
At this time, the other guests seemed to realize something and got up and left the Dufang one after another!
"Give it to me!!"
Following the dealer's order, many strong men in black immediately swarmed towards the blind man.
"Hey!"
The blind man sighed and waved the guide stick in his hand.
bang bang bang-
In an instant, all the strong men in black were lying on the ground strangely as if they were weighed down by a thousand kilograms of weight!
"You... who are you?"
Seeing this strange scene in front of him, the croupier trembled and said tremblingly.
When the blind man heard this, his face showed no emotion, and he said calmly: "It doesn't matter who I am, what's important is, can you help me exchange all the chips into Baileys now?"
"No problem, no problem!" As he said that, the croupier hurriedly tapped the chips.
But at this moment, the door of the Dufang was pushed open from the outside, and a group of fully armed Dressrosa soldiers filed in.
"Who is causing trouble here!?"
The person who spoke was a female officer wearing armor and having a heroic appearance.
The croupier on the side saw the soldiers coming, threw down his chips, raised his finger and pointed at the blind man and said: "Sir, it is this blind man who is causing trouble. Not only did he cheat, but he also injured the guard!"
Hearing this, the leading female officer ignored the dealer and put her hands in front of her eyes in an 'OK' shape.
In an instant, two streams of purple light shot out from her eyes and swept towards the dealer and the blind man.
After a while, the female officer lowered her hands, pointed at the dealer, and shouted: "Catch him!"
When the dealer saw this, he was dumbfounded and said in a panic: "Why are you arresting me? The one who caused the trouble is a blind man!"
Immediately, the female officer glanced at the dealer coldly and said, "My eyes can see through people's hearts, and you deceived me!"
After saying this, the female officer waved her hand, and the soldiers escorted the croupier away!
Then, the female officer walked up to the blind man and said respectfully:
"Mr. Yixiao, when I just took the liberty to use the Devil Fruit to peek into your heart, I found out... It turns out that you have been helping the poor in Dressrosa recently! My name is Violet, the daughter of Riku Dold III. On behalf of the entire Liku royal family, I would like to express my highest gratitude to you!"
After finishing speaking, Violet was about to kneel down on one knee, holding the sword in her hand.
But the next second, Violet discovered that a powerful force stopped her movement.
Then, the blind man who was called Yixiao said: "Princess Violet, everything I do is to follow my own 'justice', you don't have to do this!"
After he finished speaking, Yixiao waved his guide stick in his hand, and all the chips in front of him floated towards the place where they were exchanged.
"Follow 'justice'!"
Violet whispered, looking at the smile that was about to leave, she was in a daze.
But then, she seemed to have thought of something and said hurriedly: "Mr. Yixiao, wait a minute!!"
Hearing this, Yixiao stopped leaving, with a puzzled look on his face, and asked: "Princess Violet, do you have anything else to do?"
"Mr. Yixiao, when I used my Devil Fruit ability to peek into your heart just now, I also discovered that you are going to the Chambord Islands tomorrow. If you don't mind, I sincerely invite you to set off with Dressrosa's royal ship tomorrow morning. !”
When Violet finished speaking, she smiled and was extremely surprised, and said:
"King Ship? Is His Majesty King Riku going to the Chambord Islands too!?"
"Yes!" After saying that, Violet showed a charming and firm smile on her face and said loudly:
"Your Excellency Xiao Nuo is the benefactor of the entire Dressrosa. He wants to establish an 'Adventurers' Guild' to fight against pirates all over the world. Dressrosa will not miss this grand event that benefits the country and the people again! "
"That's it! If that's the case, then I won't bother you. I will show up on time tomorrow morning. As for now, I have something else to do, so I will leave first!"
After saying that, he smiled and nodded slightly to Violet, picked up the Bailey bag and walked towards the outside of the castle.
Looking at the stalwart back of Yixiao, Violet murmured softly: "Are you going to the slums for relief again? He is such a gentle man, Mr. Yixiao!"
……
East China Sea, Windmill Village.
A young man wearing a red vest, blue shorts, and slippers was lying on a big tree, looking at the 'straw hat' in his hand in a daze.
As a breeze blew by, tears fell into the air.
"Shanks! I will definitely help you take revenge. I will definitely beat all the 'Apostles' away!"
The boy shouted angrily, then stood up suddenly, put the straw hat on his head, and stared at the sea resolutely.
After a long time.
The young man seemed to have made up his mind, and then walked towards the only tavern in the village.
After a while, a cry of surprise came from the tavern...
"Luffy, you want to go to sea!? No, absolutely not, you are too young!"
In the empty tavern, the proprietress Maginot looked at the young man in front of her in disbelief. She never imagined that Luffy came to her to ask for a boat to go to sea.
When Luffy heard this, he looked at Maginot firmly and said, "I want to go to sea, I want to go to the Shampoo Islands! Only you can help me now, Sister Maginot!"
"Luffy, give up, I will never help you!"
Maginot looked serious and rejected Luffy without hesitation.
Seeing this, Luffy sighed helplessly and walked out of the tavern.
The next second, when Luffy's eyes saw the empty wine barrel next to the tavern, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"No one can stop me from going to sea!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luffy picked up a wine barrel and ran towards the seaside.
