The atmosphere of the negotiation was not very good. After all, two of the three negotiating parties were pirates. Looking at the expressions of the subordinates behind Red Beard, they were obviously ready for a fight at any time. The subordinates of the Black Sea Empress Agati also had similar expressions.
"It's Terror Island again."
Redbeard's brown eyes narrowed, and the surrounding temperature began to drop. It looked like he might turn against him in the next moment.
"Red Beard, although it's special there, it's not that..."
As soon as Agati finished speaking, Redbeard turned his head and stared at him, which made the atmosphere even more tense.
"Recently, many people are looking for a horror island. I have killed hundreds of people because of this rotten island."
Redbeard didn't offer any conditions. He was more angry now. After all, because of the Terror Island, he killed and injured nearly a hundred of his subordinates, and even three of his confidants betrayed him.
Redbeard could accept the death or injury of his subordinates, but he couldn't accept betrayal. He now wanted to find the three traitors and crush their heads one by one.
"30,000 kingdom gold coins."
As soon as Su Xiao finished speaking, Baha suddenly appeared beside him, and a big bag was thrown to the ground by Baha.
There was a crash, and the gold coins crashed all over the floor. One of them rolled to Redbeard's feet and hit his boots before rolling over.
The pirates' breathing became rapid. As pirates, they would not hide their greed.
Redbeard leaned forward slightly, grabbed a large handful of gold coins on the ground, examined them for a moment, then exerted force in his hands, and the gold coins were crushed by him and squeezed out from his fingers like mud.
"I'm not interested in these. As for the horror island, 'that' can be given to you, but..."
As Red Beard spoke, he threw the gold in his hand at Su Xiao's feet.
"On my ship, three crew members betrayed me. Find them and I will give you 'that thing'."
The conditions offered by Red Beard were a bit tricky. He didn't ask for any benefits, but asked Su Xiao to help him find three people.
Su Xiao felt a little confused, as the subject of the negotiation was somewhat 'deviated'.
"Who doesn't like gold?"
Su Xiao pulled out the Dragon-Slaying Flash from its sheath from her waist, placed it against the gold coins on the ground, and put her hands on the end of the Dragon-Slaying Flash's handle.
The atmosphere is tense to the point of freezing, and fair transactions must be based on equal strength between both parties.
"Who doesn't like gold?"
Redbeard repeated Su Xiao's words and grinned.
"You're right, it's a deal."
Redbeard hooked his fingers at the men behind him, and a one-eyed pirate behind him immediately handed over a bottle of rum.
"This is the wine from my hometown. I only drink it with my friends."
While speaking, Red Beard threw the rum in his hand towards Su Xiao. Su Xiao had just given him a step down, so he immediately returned the gift.
Redbeard, who could become a sea hero, certainly never thought that Su Xiao would help him find the three traitors. He was just making sure of one thing, that is, whether Su Xiao wanted to seize a piece of territory on the Viking Sea. This was what he urgently wanted.
Things to know.
After testing, Redbeard was basically sure that Su Xiao was not here to grab territory. Su Xiao's words, "Who doesn't like gold?" were obviously at the foot of Redbeard's steps.
Redbeard made a prompt decision and stepped on this step, and also plotted against the Empress of the Black Sea Agati, because today, the two of them had already discussed in advance and were preparing to join forces with Su Xiao to deal with the Bone Sheep Fanosi.
The original negotiation plan was that Red Beard could produce the 'chart' of the Terror Island, provided that Su Xiao helped him and Agati deal with the Bone Sheep.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the negotiation started, Su Xiao summoned the cursed people, which made Red Beard hesitate. Although he didn't know the number of cursed people, he realized that these inhuman monsters were not easy to deal with.
Therefore, Red Beard decisively changed the way he negotiated. Recently, other participants in the War of Powers have come to trouble Red Beard one after another, and even instigated the rebellion of three of his subordinates to obtain the location of the Terror Island.
Redbeard used this incident to conduct a relatively cautious test, which was to let Su Xiao find the three traitors. In fact, Redbeard's original intention was not like this. He just wanted to confirm whether Su Xiao would join the battle for hegemony at sea.
After confirming this, Red Beard suddenly changed his stance and stepped on the 'steps' set by Su Xiao. He not only saved his face as a big pirate, but also received a large amount of gold coins.
Not only that, Red Beard also chose to side with Su Xiao. As the hero of the sea did, when others gave him face, he immediately returned the rum from his hometown and added that he only drank this wine with his friends.
"Red Beard."
Agati spoke with a smile. There was no hint of anger in her, but in her heart, she already wanted to rip off the red-bearded head and trample it under her feet.
"King of Black Sea, what do you think of our negotiations?"
Redbeard looked sideways at Agati.
"Opinions? How is that possible? I'm just a middleman."
Of course Agati will not have any objections. If they fall out now, Su Xiao and Hongbeard will join forces to deal with her. This is no joke.
Whether it is Redbeard or Agati, they are both shrewd and ruthless characters who have climbed to their current position. In this negotiation, no one lost at all. Su Xiao got the location of the horror island, and Agati got the ancient god.
With his right arm, Red Beard got a lot of gold coins.
"This is the 'chart' pointing to the Terror Island. In 15 years, that is, in this rotation, there will only be this one."
Redbeard took out a black scroll from his arms. The texture of this thing resembled parchment.
"In 15 years, you will only have this opportunity. I, Redbeard Ignati, sincerely admire your choice. I... backed down at the beginning."
Redbeard stood up and walked to Su Xiao, looking like he was ready to hand the chart into Su Xiao's hands.
Seeing this scene, Su Xiao felt a little confused. He raised his hand and held the chart, and the prompt of Samsara Paradise appeared.

…
Seeing the attributes of [Soul Refining of the Raging Sea], Su Xiao's doubts were solved, which was why it was so difficult to find the location of the horror island.
Now it seems that the location of the Terror Island is not too difficult to find. What is really difficult to obtain is the [Soul Refining of the Raging Sea].
As for why this situation occurred, it was entirely because Agati was obstructing it. She knew that what Su Xiao wanted was just the coordinates of the Terror Island, but she conveyed to Red Beard that what Su Xiao wanted was the [Soul Refiner of the Raging Sea].
Agati miscalculated. As soon as the negotiation started, Su Xiao vaguely sensed something was wrong and decisively took out 30,000 gold coins. After all, these gold coins lost their value after leaving the Viking Sea.
In fact, Su Xiao was not looking for any soul refinement at all, he only needed the coordinates of the horror island.
Unfortunately, after saying this, Redbeard was a little unconvinced. In his opinion, Su Xiao was the kind of strong man who pursued strength. The target was of course [Soul Refining of the Raging Sea]. How could he get the coordinates of the horror island just for the sake of it?
There is such a big movement, if there is not a secret meeting today, there may be a sea battle between several major forces tomorrow evening.
