One Piece: God Killer
Chapter 12 Lafitte
"I want to invite you to join the Black Constellation." It should be said that Morana is worthy of being the leader of the Black Constellation. When talking about business, she suddenly regained her calm state of mind.
However, the words that came out of her mouth baffled Profik. Except for an unreliable guy like Luffy, which criminal organization would invite someone they just met to join?
What should family members do if they are accidentally invited to join the gang? Waiting online, hurry, hurry, hurry!
Profik's face was expressionless: "Why, tell me your reasons."
"I heard that anyone who can achieve great things cherishes talents." Morana started her unique nonsense mode in a serious tone, "I think you have the ability, join our Black Constellation, isn't it? Is it just right?"
Profik was completely unmoved, not to mention that he knew little about the Black Constellation. His goal has always been above the sea, and he will not be bound to a small star island at all.
He said coldly: "If this is your purpose, then I can tell you clearly that I reject your invitation."
"Then I won't sell you the boat!" Morana put his hands on the table and stood up, as if this could increase his momentum. She was like a kitten with fried hair, baring her teeth and threatening.
"Don't change your concept." Profic pointed out the logical loophole hidden by the girl in front of him unceremoniously. "First of all, we have our own ship. Even if you don't sell us the ship, we can go to sea by ourselves; secondly, if you join Without your Black Constellation, what’s the point of buying a boat?”
Morana sat back on the stool angrily, and her original threatening tone became flattering. She pretended to be pitiful and said: "Well, I can sell you the boat cheaper, but you have to promise to help me." busy!"
"Let me join first, and then ask for my help. It's a good plan. However, unfortunately, the 'face-saving effect' does not work for me." Profik immediately saw through Morana's wishful thinking, the so-called face-saving effect. , meaning that after people say no to a big request, they are more likely to agree to a less big request that follows.
Molana seemed a little unwilling to have his thoughts exposed. "I heard that 'giving roses to others leaves fragrance in your hands'. Helping others ends up helping yourself! Why are you so cruel..."
"It's not impossible," Profik changed the subject. After all, he still hoped to buy a new ship from the Black Constellation shipyard.
"Great!" Morana almost jumped for joy.
"Don't be too happy. Make your request clear first," Profik said. "Say it first. This does not mean that I have agreed to your request. We will not do any request that is too dangerous."
Just as Morana was about to speak, there was a "bump" and someone kicked the door of the tavern open. Everyone's eyes were attracted, including of course Profik and Morana's. However, when Morana saw the person coming, he immediately withdrew his gaze and turned his back to the door.
The person who walked into the store was not just one person, but a group of people. This group of people had long knives and guns on their waists and wore uniforms with a unified golden five-pointed star logo on them. This is the symbol of the Star Kingdom. They are the guards of the Star Kingdom.
And walking in front of everyone, walking straight to the center of the bar as if there was no one else around, was a man with heavy makeup, a white bowler hat on his head, a shirt dotted with black dots on his upper body, and a black suspender coat on his lower body. Slender man. The most unusual thing is that unlike other members of the Star Kingdom's guard, he does not wear a pistol or long knife on his waist, but instead wears a strange cane.
Even though he was much younger than when he appeared in "One Piece", Profic still recognized the person in front of him at a glance. Lafitte! One of the future captains of the Blackbeard Pirates, according to the information provided by Oda, is indeed from the West Sea, and he also holds the position of "security officer" in a kingdom in the West Sea. If this country that did not appear in the original work is actually the Star Kingdom in the South China Sea, it would not be unreasonable.
With bold steps, Lafitte walked to the center of the tavern and took out a golden scroll from his pocket - the edict of the King of Star Island.
"Lafitte, what are you doing here?!" the landlady asked with some disgust, "Guys like you are not welcome here..."
"Hmph, I'm here to announce His Majesty the King's new edict. You guys, please be quiet!" Lafitte sneered, and then he was about to read out the edict in his hand.
"I don't care about the king's edict!" A tall, strong man stood up. He was a head taller than Lafitte, who was more than three meters tall. "You guy, get out of here."
"Kill him!" Lafitte said coldly, and then, the guards standing at the door fired repeatedly, blood spattered out, the tall and strong man fell unwillingly, and the entire tavern was enveloped in the sound of gunfire and the smell of gunpowder.
Sure enough, for a guy who doesn't know how to be armed and domineering, the power of bullets should not be underestimated. Profic sat silently in his seat watching all this, and gained a deeper understanding of the importance of armed color domineering.
Amid everyone's astonishment, Lafitte kicked the tall pirate's body aside with disdain. He looked around the tavern. Several customers who were drinking in the tavern were so frightened that they hurriedly checked out and left. After seeing that no unsighted guy came out to cause trouble, Lafitte seemed to nod with satisfaction and said: "I am Lafitte, the captain of the King's Guard of the Star Kingdom, and I am here to announce the edict of His Majesty the King! "
He then read out: "The great, noble and supreme King of the Kingdom of Stars has issued an edict: From today on, all shops in the Kingdom of Stars must hang the portrait of His Majesty the King, otherwise they will be deemed to be operating illegally. His Majesty the King is kind. , you can be allowed to execute it from this afternoon, do you understand?"
"I understand, don't worry, we will do it." The boss replied stiffly, "Now, can you please leave here?"
Lafitte sneered, "Boss, don't worry, wait until I finish..."
As he spoke, his figure suddenly shot out like an arrow from a string, heading straight towards Morana who was sitting in the corner trying to hide his figure.
"Hey!" The proprietress said immediately, whether she wanted to stop Lafitte or remind Morana, or she was simply frightened.
At the critical moment, Profik pulled Morana away, allowing Lafitte to miss.
Ever since Lafitte entered the tavern, Profic noticed that something was wrong with Morana's state. She seemed to have been trying to hide herself from Lafitte's attention. He didn't know why Morana did this, but he still paid special attention to the situation of Lafitte and Morana.
Seeing Lafitte suddenly rushing over, it seemed that he was coming with bad intentions, and Morana didn't seem to react, so Profik immediately took action.
"What are you doing?" Profic stepped forward and stood between Morana and Lafitte.
"This guy is the gang leader named by His Majesty the King himself. I advise you not to meddle in other people's business." Lafitte stared at Profik coldly, making his hair stand on end.
"Brother Profik, don't!" Molana's tone was filled with tears, "This person will kill me. I heard that saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. You must save him." its me!"
Profic could sense that this guy named Lafitte was very strong. From this point of view, he was definitely good enough to be Blackbeard's companion in the future.
Moreover, his murderous intention towards Morana is definitely not fake. Once he really gets out of the way, Morana is likely to be killed in one blow. Although this girl has a bit of a weird temper, judging from the information provided by the cannery shop owner, she is still a good guy. He does have a good impression of her, at least he can't bear to see her die in front of him.
However, Profik didn't want to fight Lafitte out of nowhere. Provoking a strong enemy for no reason would do him no good.
Otherwise, find a way to delay it for a while until Heit comes after hearing the news?
Profik knew that stalling for time would cause Heit to come, and Lafitte knew better. Therefore, he decided to make a quick decision and seize this opportunity to get rid of the little gang leader of Black Constellation. Therefore, just when Profik was hesitant, Lafitte suddenly took action.
The long staff in his hand stabbed straight at Profik's right arm at a tricky angle. The angle of this attack was very particular. If Profik wanted to dodge it, it would not be difficult, but it would definitely expose Morana beside him.
"Morana, run!" Profik dodged to the left, but at the same time he raised his hand and threw the cider bottle out. With the cooperation of Shen Wen Se Haki, the angle of flight of this wine bottle was also just right. It happened to be on the route of Lafitte's attack on Morana. If he pursued, he would be directly hit by the bottle.
"Tch!" Lafitte apparently also discovered the mystery hidden in the wine bottle, so he had to wait for the bottle to fall to the ground before talking. However, he did not sit idle, but turned to attack Profic. At the same time, he ordered to stand on the ground. The guard at the door said, "Morana, if you have been staying at the headquarters, that's all. You dare to come out alone. This is the opportunity given to me by God! Guards, free fire! Be sure to kill the target!"
