In the tavern, Zhang Da also poured a glass of wine for Uncle Goodman to calm down his shock, and told him what happened.
Rui Mengmeng was busy cleaning up the messy table with cups and plates left behind before going out.
Artoria went to the small courtyard to sort out today's swordsmanship gains.
Tom listened to Zhang Daye talking for a while and ran to the refrigerator impatiently. Every time the owner told people about things in the tavern, he would skip his fight, which made him unhappy.
"That's probably it. He left after the competition and didn't embarrass us." Zhang Daye concluded, even when he wanted to leave, it was our Tom who gave him a hard time.
The young man I helped recruited a guard who could compete with the Shichibukai. Uncle Goodman chose to drink a glass of wine to calm down: "Ton tons tons ha~ It's really amazing. That's the Shichibukai. It reminds me of when I was young. …”
"Can you compete with Qiwuhai when you are young?" Zhang Da also smiled and gave him a refill, ready to hear what he was going to say next.
Goodman rolled his eyes at him, saying that he was not just bragging: "When I was young, I would dare to go and watch such a lively event!"
"Pfft~" Zhang Da also laughed out loud, and the uncle's tone was actually quite proud.
"Why are you laughing? Your group of guests today are so cowardly that they don't dare to watch the excitement, and they can't even boast when they brag. It makes me think that the Shichibukai are here to make trouble for you." Goodman said dissatisfied.
"Thank you, uncle." Zhang Da could also hear the worry in his words. He didn't expect that someone could worry about him in a different world.
Goodman waved his hand: "Thank you, I didn't help. I often come to your house to sit there when I have time. Molly is also worried about you."
"Okay." Zhang Da also nodded.
"Let's go, I have to go back and teach those guys the art of talking. What's that called? Flying Slash, right? Haha, I can do this for a year!" Goodman left happily.
"That uncle seems to be a really good person." Rui Mengmeng said.
"Yes, I have received a lot of care from their family." Zhang Da agreed, "Let's go and see how Artoria is doing."
Zhang Da also walked into the yard and poked his head back: "Tom, remember to clean up the refrigerator if it is messed up!"
Tom shrank his neck and nodded quickly, leaning against the closed refrigerator door. Behind the refrigerator door was a mess of fruits and vegetables, and there were two broken eggs in the upper compartment.
Zhang Da didn't notice Tom's guilty look. After he left, Tom wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and hurriedly started to tidy up the refrigerator.
…
Artoria closed her eyes and held the hilt of the sword with both hands. She was holding the ordinary knight sword that Zhang Daye gave to Rui Mengmeng. In front of her was a small dumbbell that Zhang Daye used for exercise.
Zhang Daye and Rui Mengmeng didn't say anything and just watched quietly.
At a certain moment, Artoria opened her eyes and swung down the long sword in her hand. The sword blade collided with the iron dumbbell without making a crashing sound, but instead split the dumbbell into two pieces like chopping vegetables.
Zhang Da could also feel that there was no magic power on the sword just now, and the force Arturia used was not particularly strong.
Artoria said to herself: "So, even hard steel has countless flaws. As long as you use a suitable method to cut it, it can be easily cut without relying on magic power."
"Huh? Isn't it something that all things breathe?" Zhang Daye asked curiously.
"Perhaps everyone's understanding is slightly different. Maybe it seems to me to be a flaw, but to others it's breathing, or maybe it's something else. In the final analysis, it's something that can only be accomplished with a certain level of understanding of swordsmanship. "
Artoria explained, and then began to try how to use the flying slash.
Zhang Da is also confused. This thing is too mysterious. He feels that at this stage, he should exercise well and enhance his physical fitness and magic power, so that he can improve faster.
At night, the tavern was full, and every drinking table had extra seats. There were also several people without long gowns standing and drinking.
"I wonder why you guys are all here today?" Zhang Da also said hello when he saw familiar people.
"Of course it's to see if you, little boss, were hacked to death by that guy!"
"Yes, yes, brother, what is the result?" A group of people looked at him eagerly.
"You guys are really good at talking." Zhang Daye said a little proudly, "I let you down. Although we didn't win, no one was hurt."
"Gene Era"
"That's awesome. Cheers to the little boss for not being beaten to death by the Shichibukai!"
"cheers!"
Zhang Da also rolled his eyes: "Thank you!"
"Cheers to Artoria-chan!"
"Here's to Tom's piano!"
Zhang Da didn't want to pay attention to them anymore. He felt that these people were just looking for a reason to drink. The gossip scene turned into a banquet for dozens of people.
But why did Tom run so obediently to play the piano today?
Zhang Da also felt that there must be a demon when something went wrong. He didn't know if someone gave too many bribes today, or if Tom broke something.
…
The next day, a refrigerator was replaced at home.
The reason is that Tom cleaned the refrigerator inside and out very quickly yesterday and arranged the ingredients neatly. There is nothing wrong with this in itself.
But when he was closing the refrigerator door after all this, he accidentally got his tail caught in the refrigerator. The pain caused Tom to jump three meters high, even taking the refrigerator with him.
Worried about being discovered, Tom pinched his mouth to endure the pain, jumped down in mid-air and landed before the refrigerator, and caught the big refrigerator.
It's a pity that this refrigerator is not the one in Tom's house. It can't withstand disasters like him. Not only the ingredients inside are in a mess, but the wires are torn off.
After Tom plugged it back in, the refrigerator burned out due to a short circuit somewhere.
Tom's solution was to clean it up again and pretend that nothing had happened.
But how could such a thing be hidden? Rui Mengmeng discovered it all at once when she was getting the ingredients in the morning.
After knowing the truth, Zhang Da couldn't laugh or cry: "If it's broken, it's broken. I won't beat you. Tell me earlier and we can change it earlier to avoid wasting so much food."
Tom put his hands behind his back with a flattering smile on his face, which was Tom's standard posture for admitting his mistakes.
It's just that he is also a typical example of 'I know I made a mistake, but I will dare to do it next time'. He always repeats the same mistakes intentionally or unintentionally.
"Tatsuya, something big seems to have happened." Arturia showed the newspaper in her hand to Zhang Tatsuya.
"The ship aboard the Celestial Dragon Saint Donquixote Musgarud has been lost. Anyone who can provide clues will be rewarded."
Attached to it was a picture of a green-haired Draco, as well as a picture of the ship he was riding on.
"I remember Don Quixote is the name of a pirate group, right?" Arturia asked.
"Yes, Doflamingo's pirate group is also called the Don Quixote family. Their family was once a Draco. One day, his father did not want to be a scum like a Draco anymore, so he took the whole family and left the Holy Land of Mary. Joya wants to be an ordinary person.
However, ordinary people probably believed in the oppression of the Celestial Gold, or had witnessed the atrocities committed by the Celestial Dragons, so they did not accept them, and took advantage of them losing their privileges to vent their grievances on their family.
The result was quite tragic. Later, Doflamingo killed his father and took his head to Mariejoia in the hope of restoring his identity as a Draco. However, he failed, and then he became a great pirate who did all kinds of evil. To destroy this 'world belonging to the Celestial Dragons'. "
Rui Mengmeng was shocked by how evil this man was: "So cruel, he actually killed his own father..."
Zhang Da also continued: "This Musgarud Saint is probably a descendant of the same king in the 'Twenty Kings' as their family. The disappearance of this person should have no impact on us, and that's not right. Maybe someone will arrive." Search and interrogation in Xiangbo District, etc. Anyway, if you ask, you just don’t know and didn’t see it.”
Zhang Daye estimated that Musgard Saint was now on Fishman Island and was rescued by Princess Otohime. After that, he changed his mind and never kept slaves again. Later, he also protected Shirahoshi during the World Conference and was a Celestial Dragon. A strange flower among them.
