Noticing the dissatisfied looks on the two men's faces, Aoun smiled and explained:
"Judging from the information provided by the master, he should be the type who specializes in picking off big pirates.
So there is only one reason why he would attack our Gospel... He knows my true identity, or has seen the entire process of my transformation into human beast form, so he can be sure that I am the Ornn on the bounty order.
So far, I have only shown my human-animal form in two places, one is Keya Town and the other is the Kingdom of Flowers, so I can conclude that he has appeared in the sea near these two places. passed and became interested in me. "
After briefly explaining his guess to Yamato and Rhea, Aoun turned to look at the bearded mysterious guest:
"Then, Mr. Mysterio, it's time to explain to me and my crew why you followed us for so long and why you attacked us, right?"
After hearing this, Yamato and Rhea also came to their senses and stared at the mysterious guest with dissatisfaction.
This guy had better come up with an excuse that is enough to convince them, otherwise, they will definitely make this guy look good.
Facing the gazes of the three people, Mysterio first took off his cowboy hat and placed it on his chest, bowed and bowed to Ornn and the others to apologize, and then said calmly:
"No special reason, I just want to test to see if you are worthy of my joining..."
"ha?!"
After hearing this, the two women tilted their heads and made a long sound that was obviously questioning.
"So, all the pirate groups you targeted previously were..."
"Yes, they failed my test." Mysterio gave an affirmative answer.
"Are you kidding?" Rhea obviously couldn't accept such a reason. She grabbed the mysterious guest by the collar and said angrily: "Just because of this reason, we will wipe out the pirate group that we have never met before. Our sea... we I won’t accept a guy like you on board!”
Rhea wanted to say "our pirate group", but as he spoke, he suddenly remembered that their pirate group still did not have an official name and a unique pirate flag, so he could only use " "We" to refer to.
Even though Rhea was holding him by the collar, Mysterio didn't have much anger on his face, and he could only say lightly:
"The Hacksaw Pirates plundered a village four months ago. More than 70% of the men in the village were slaughtered. Thirteen women were kidnapped and sold to a slave auction house.
The Silver Spoon Pirates robbed a merchant ship belonging to a chamber of commerce three months ago. The president of the chamber of commerce and his family of three were brutally murdered and quartered.
The One-Eyed Crab Pirates are responsible for helping the royal family of the Chito Kingdom to search for beautiful girls for the royal family’s enjoyment..."
Mysterio told one after another the evil deeds of several pirates he killed, and finally looked at Rhea and asked:
"Which of these people shouldn't die?"
"This..." Rhea didn't know how to respond.
"What about us?" Yamato asked his own question instead of Rhea:
"Since you have been following us for half a month, you should know that we have never done anything bad, right? Why are you still attacking us?"
Mysterio's expression still hasn't changed much:
"Because you should be going to Upside Down Mountain soon. My boat cannot support me to follow you to Upside Down Mountain, so I must confirm before that whether you are worthy of my joining."
"How do you know we are about to go to Upside Down Mountain?" In fact, even Rhea didn't know when they were going to Upside Down Mountain.
"I am from the East China Sea. For some reasons, I came to the West Sea half a year ago. Therefore, I know very well that your route is heading towards the Upside Down Mountain."
At this time, Yamato also fell silent.
So Mysterio set his sights on Ornn, and the meaning was obvious - it's your turn to ask questions.
Aoun was silent for a moment and then asked:
"So... why are you so obsessed with joining a promising pirate group, or what do you want us to do for you?"
Hearing this question, Mysterio's facial expression finally fluctuated. He looked at Aoun, and after a long silence, he said:
"I have an enemy that I want to kill, but I can't compare to him in terms of strength or talent, so I want to join a pirate group that can make me stronger, so that one day I can kill my enemy with my own hands. Enemy."
Having said this, Mysterio paused for a moment, but still spoke bluntly:
"I want to join you just because you are, in my opinion, the most promising pirate group in the Western Sea. Therefore, I am willing to join you temporarily, and I am also willing to complete everything ordered by your captain without any complaints. Just or evil commands.
But if in the future, I find that you cannot make me stronger quickly, or if you find a pirate group that is more promising than you, I will leave right now, and I hope you will not stop me. "
Ichiban said that the facial expressions of Yamato and Rhea changed several times in succession, but Orn always maintained a cheerful look:
"It sounds interesting. Please introduce yourself, and by the way, tell us who your enemy is."
"My name is Garland Payton, and my enemy's name is Fan Oka, who is my fellow junior."
When Mysterio Payton mentioned the name Van Oka, his cold face almost twisted into a ball.
At the same time, Aoun was slightly shaken when he heard this familiar name.
This guy's enemy is actually Fan Oka? The future captain of the third ship of the Blackbeard Pirates, and they are also brothers in the same discipline?
Thinking of this, Aoun's eyes unconsciously fell on the special sniper scope worn by Peyton's right eye... It was indeed the same sniper scope as Van Oka in the anime.
"Can you tell me the story about you and your junior brother in more detail? Although it is a bit offensive, I think this setting is quite interesting..."
Although Rhea and Yamato on the side did not speak, they obviously had the same idea as Aoun.
Dramas such as brothers falling in love and killing each other are a popular setting in various novels and comics!
Payton frowned, but still took a deep breath and recounted his experience.
It’s not much different from those stories with the same theme. The two junior brothers were adopted by the master together and were taught sniper skills by the master. Then one day, the talented junior brother suddenly turned evil and killed the master and took away the master’s beloved gun Qianlu. , the senior brother who couldn't accept it was chasing the murderer thousands of miles away, but he lost an arm to his opponent and was almost shot through the heart.
In the end, the senior brother was lucky enough to survive, and traveled to the West Sea and transformed his own arm, hoping that one day in the future he could kill his brother and avenge his master...
"Um... I have a question?" Yamato couldn't suppress his curiosity after hearing the story:
"What's wrong with that? Why did you kill your master?"
Payton lit up a cigarette, took a deep breath, and slowly shook his head with red eyes and said:
"He, he said that all this is destiny..."
