Chapter 18 Risking Yourself
At this point, Scarface is broken and broken, anyway, he is a pirate, what kind of reputation does he want?
As long as he has enough wealth and power, his fleet will snowball rapidly.
Hearing what Scarface said, Locke looked relieved and said indifferently, "Isn't that the treasure map?" You said it earlier, what kind of good person to pretend! ”
The corners of Scarface's mouth twitched, the scar on his face was as hideous as a centipede, and he scolded angrily: "Don't give Lao Tzu nonsense, don't say I'll shoot you with one shot!"
"The treasure map is placed on the right side of the entrance to the captain's room, in the dark compartment behind the third plank, don't bother me again when you get it!"
"Damn, this idiot even knows how to place a dark grid!" Scarface scolded secretly, and after seeing Locke's impatient face, he couldn't help but scold: "Neurotic!"
However, Locke didn't care so much, and said to Longinus, "Lord Major, can I leave?"
"Take him away!" Longinus said to the soldiers escorting Locke.
Scarface keenly noticed that since Locke told the whereabouts of the treasure map, the surrounding pirates began to move, and he couldn't help but feel a big alarm in his heart, and couldn't wait to say, "Go!"
"Wait, did you forget something?"
Scarface couldn't help but stop, looked at Longinus and said with fear, "Longinus, what do you mean?"
"You can go, but leave the people behind."
"Humph! Do you think I'm stupid? These guys are my talisman now, let them go, maybe I will be thrown into prison by you in the next second, I can't trust you high-sounding navy. Scarface said with a dark smile.
"Then how can I trust you, pirates have always been capricious, and putting the lives of these people in your hands is the biggest irresponsibility for them!" Longinus retorted "with a righteous and awe-inspiring" attitude.
"But you can only choose to trust us, don't you?" Scarface consciously grasped Longinus's lifeline, and his tone couldn't help but be arrogant.
Longinus was silent for a moment, and then said resolutely: "I refuse!" Regardless of whether pirates like you can be trusted, even if you do release these people to the island, it will be difficult for them to return to the island alive, which will only lead to greater tragedy. ”
Scarface was a little panicked, and hurriedly said, "You calm down, I didn't say that I would definitely exile them to the isolated island!"
"Word spreads here, you are going to face an enemy besides the navy and pirates who also covet treasures, in this case, you really dare to risk exposure and attack to send these people back to other islands?" Longinus hit the nail on the head.
Scarface opened his mouth, wanting to speak and stopping, stopping and wanting to speak, not feeling that his words could deceive the other party.
The atmosphere in the arena was a little solemn for a moment, and just as the fear in Scarface's heart was about to break through the limit, Longinus took out two pairs of handcuffs from his arms and threw them over.
Scarface said with a gloomy face: "Longinus, what do you mean, do you want me to surrender with my hands tied?" Don't be delusional, I won't be intimidated by you, don't compare me to that waste captain! ”
"Check for yourself, these two pairs of handcuffs are made of Hailou stone."
Scarface couldn't figure out what Longinus meant, but he still picked up the handcuffs from the good flow, found the battle captain who had eaten the Devil Fruit, and tested it, and found that he had turned into a soft-footed shrimp in an instant.
"It's indeed the legendary Hailou Stone, so your purpose is to show us off the strength and wealth of the navy?" Scarface asked in an unkind tone.
"Since you know the Hailou Stone, you should have known that its hardness is even higher than that of a diamond, and even the legendary Supreme Knife is difficult to break it." Longinus continued.
At this moment, Scarface's face faintly grasped the veins, and although his face was silent, his heart was already alive.
"Throw back the Hailou stone handcuffs."
"Are you going to ......?"
"Use me as a hostage to replace those people back, I know you may not have the courage, so this Hailou stone handcuff is actually for me." Longinus picked up the handcuffs, first locking them to his ankles, and then actively restraining his hands.
"Although I'm not a capable person, after being tied with my hands and feet, my strength is not one in ten, so you won't still be afraid in this case, right?"
When the words fell, not to mention the surrounding people, the navy, and even those pirates, they couldn't help but shake their hearts, walking on the edge of darkness, they couldn't imagine why someone could put themselves in that kind of danger for a group of ordinary people who didn't know each other.
Even if they are in the opposing camp, they can't help but admire.
The navy that followed Longinus strongly objected, "Major Longinus, don't put yourself in danger!" These guys are cruel pirates, and they don't have any morals to talk about! ”
Even the people who were being held hostage couldn't help but cry out with gratitude: "Major Longinus, please stop, you have done enough for us, let's face it alone!"
However, before their words fell, Longinus had already locked the handcuffs completely, calmly looked at the pirates opposite and said, "Let those people go, I'll go with you." I'm a Lieutenant Commander, and with me as a hostage, you can even evade any connected pursuits, and if you can capture me, it will be extremely useful to your fame! ”
Scarface was a little excited, a future star known as the Light of the Navy, his value was much greater than that of the old, weak, sick and disabled, and besides, that guy had already tied his hands and feet, they had no reason to be afraid of even a "waste", right?
Seeing Longinus walking with difficulty, Scarface ordered very decisively: "Let those ordinary people go, take our naval lieutenant and leave here together, I will definitely treat this naval friend well, hahahaha!"
"Damn! Major Longinus is still willing to make such a big sacrifice for the sake of us guys who will only drag him down, as before! The hostage who had been replaced said with tears in his eyes.
"Major Longinus, he ...... It's great! Last time in Zephyr Town, too, in order to rescue the captured soldiers, they went deep behind enemy lines, and finally rescued everyone at the cost of dozens of bullets! ”
"Damn pirates, you have remembered for me, even if Major Longinus has the slightest damage, our entire G2 branch will not let you go!"
