Chapter 59 Confrontation
William whispered in Zep's ear: "How about asking your subordinates to put the gun down?"
Zhepu sneered: "Do you think I am a person who is so scared of death? You either let me go or die with me!"
"It seems you are determined to die with me, the unknown man?" William said with a threat, estimating the time in his mind, and calculating how long it will take for the owner of the restaurant, Denpiel, to arrive.
"Since we have become a pirate, we are not qualified to choose our own way of death," Zhepu glanced at his three subordinates with sharp eyes. He was not only talking to William, but also talking to his subordinates. "The only choice we can choose is whether we look like a man when we die!"
William's heart was shocked. He had already felt Zhepu's murderous intent. This man who became the captain of the Pirates as a chef at this time had somewhat wiped out William's negative impression of the pirates.
At least in this group, it is not all wasteful people who bully the weak and fear the strong, and are harsh and weak on the inside.
Just as Zhepu and his three subordinates were about to take action, a group of people hurried over in the restaurant.
Danpiel was still wearing that white coat, from the laboratory to the conference room, and from the conference room to the front of the restaurant, he had never had time to find time to change his clothes.
You can see this man trying hard to suppress his anger. He held a thin sword in his hand and came to the two groups of people who were tense. First, he looked at the Red Beard Pirates and others, then looked at William and Zhepu who were sticking together, and Zhepu's subordinates who pointed guns at them, and took a deep breath: "Are you going to fight to the death here? In the royal city? In front of my restaurant?"
"Whoever of you two groups of people first, I promise that he will never get anything from me again, and his opponents will definitely have whatever they want," Danpiel put his hand on the hilt of the sword, and the men following him also pointed guns at William and others, "And don't you think about going out from me intact!"
As soon as Danpier finished speaking, Zhepu spoke first and ordered his subordinates in front of him: "You three, put down your guns."
After the three chefs' pirates acted according to their words, Zhepu said to Danpiel: "I will sell you face, Danpiel, if I die, I believe you will help my subordinates to fulfill their unfulfilled obligations."
Zhepp said this beautifully. If William or Reis dared to touch a hair now, then Danpiel would definitely not ignore it.
Reis frowned, and saw Denpiel staring at him, weighing the pros and cons, and finally said: "Let him go, Stolt."
William shrugged, moved the knife away from Zep's throat, and stepped back vigilantly, slowly heading into his own group of people.
Zhepu turned around and did not show any angry expressions. Instead, he smiled at William and said, "Little Devil, I remember you. You are miserable. I, the old devil, hold a grudge like you!"
William turned a blind eye to the threat of the East China Sea pirates. When passing by Denpiel, the two looked at each other, and the other looked at him as if he was thinking.
At one end of the street in the distance, a large amount of noise came. Danpiel glanced at the two sides coldly: "It should be from the Kingdom Guard. I know that some of you have contact with the big figures in the royal city, but I don't want the pirates to contact my restaurant on the surface."
Reis barely squeezed out a smile, while the other pirates of the Red Beard Pirates patted William on the shoulders one after another. Hutcherson asked about his injuries with concern, as if he had just won a battle.
The two groups of pirates left clearly before the kingdom guards arrived.
...
Kalmar City, the palace of the Chancellor of the Exchequer.
After Alcadio sent Barbarossa and Clo away, he came to a small conference room. His partner, the short naval colonel Roy, was carefully looking at a naked (blocked) female painting in the room with his hands behind his back.
Although Colonel Roy, Alcateo and "Red Beard" Barbarossa have formed a de facto alliance of interests, Colonel Roy still tries not to meet Barbarossa. He is intimate with a kingdom noble like Arcadeo. If something happens, he can still tell the difference, but colluding with a pirate like Barbarossa is an indelible crime.
In fact, there was a share of the benefits that Alcadio took from Barbarossa's results, and he only transferred them to him. However, Barbarossa could not explain to his subordinates, so this inevitably led to the crew members being dissatisfied with the Red Beard and the "partners" hidden on the shore, and they felt that they were too greedy.
"These empty-headed pirates," sighed Alcateio, "just not understand that they are free and free, thanks to the information we provide and the protection of the official, they always stare at some small profits."
Obviously, Clow had told Alcatel to Alcatel's plunder in private, and perhaps it was a bit of a fire.
Alcateio also knew that Clo was beaten by Hereading, but he didn't care. As for Clo's vague intention to return to the business, he naturally ignored it, so that Clo finally left the mansion with loss and resentment.
"It's because he's stupid enough that he's going to be a pirate." Colonel Roy turned around and talked about Barbarossa. Although the other party was a well-known pirate in the East China Sea, his tone also had a sense of condescending superiority.
Arcadio smiled and wanted to say something else, but the phone bug in his pocket suddenly rang.
Apologized for Roy, Arcadio walked away two steps and took the call.
Roy turned his head indifferently and continued to observe the decoration of the room with interest. When Arcadio finished the phone call, seeing that he looked unhappy, Roy asked, "What's wrong?"
The call that Alcadio just received was related to the confrontation between Reis, William and Zep in full view of everyone with guns.
"This group of scum is a group of mad dogs, and they will cause trouble at any time," Alcateo sighed softly. "It's really not worry-free. If there is a suitable candidate, I really want to kick them away."
"It's just a pirate, but there are so many." Roy said lightly, sucking a cigar.
...
On the other hand, William had already returned to the ship with the help of the pirates on the same boat. Several old pirates who were walking with him along the way also vividly described how William subdued the "Red-Foot" Zhepu and how he talked and laughed with the other party while pointing three guns.
Hutcherson and Harden served him and left after lying down. When he was the only one left in the cabin, William suddenly sat up from the hammock. Although his face was still a little pale, he did not see any weakness in front of him.
Although Zhepu's leg strength was strong, he changed his moves three times before, and he didn't have time to re-energize his strength during the fight. The attack that kicked William was actually not as strong as he thought. Moreover, since William had the [Fitness] expertise, his body's ability to resist and recover from hits and ability to recover from the attacks has become much stronger. It seemed that he needed someone to support him before, and they were all pretending.
He leaned out to observe and saw that there was no one outside, so he took out the phone bug from his arms and dialed out a string of numbers.
When the opposite side was connected, William said in a deep voice: "The bait is ready to be put, prepare to peel it."

(I would like to ask you if you think that the settings about the Forty Destiny Square and Statue Speaking before and after the Forty Destiny Cancers are inappropriate, you can leave a message in the comments of the chapter. If everyone agrees, Zhong Mou will find time and modify it without affecting the subsequent reading. Return to the early exploration mode, and William will explore it alone.)
