Pirate: Eternal

Chapter 239 Paine’s plan

calm zone

At an altitude of 3000 meters

"This feels a bit strange. There is no wind at such a high place."

The entire island was suspended high in the sky by huge flame thrusters installed at the bottom. Vlad stood on the edge of the island wearing a long black windbreaker, but the hem of the clothes hung straight down, making it impossible for him to pretend to be chic.

"Nonsense, the windless zone, as the name suggests, is a zone without wind. Even if you fly into the sky, there will be no wind!"

Cervantes stood aside with his hands behind his back, showing off his fat belly, looking like a big shot.

Vlad glanced at him, took out a cigarette and lit it: "Now the whole world is in chaos. Although I want to find a safe place to hide and watch the tigers fight, we must do something to take charge first. Take the initiative, otherwise you will lose the opportunity to take the lead after those companies compete for one or two.

So, have you decided which option to take with Marie Joa? "

He is ready to take action against the senior officials of the World Government except the Celestial Dragons. Of course, this action is not to kill them now, but to make these people become obedient dogs.

A bunch of dogs who only listen to Cervantes!

"Corrupt it."

Cervantes said first, then paused, shook his head and smiled silently.

"They are all greedy guys anyway. If you do what they want, they will be easily drawn into our camp without much effort at all."

Vlad gave two options, namely coercion and inducement. Originally, these two methods could be combined into one, and the effect would probably be better.

But because these people are only temporarily useful to them and will be disposed of directly as waste after use, they are not willing to give these people too high treatment at all.

Coercion is directly through kidnapping their family members, death threats, or coercion with evidence of crime; inducement is very simple, just throwing money at them. Anyway, there are still a lot of Baileys left.

"Okay." Vlad nodded, "Anyway, they will spit out twice as much as they eat."

"Then it's settled, I'll let Lucci make the arrangements." Cervantes took out the phone and started giving instructions to Lucci.

blue blue-

Just as Cervantes was on the phone, the phone bug in Vlad's arms also rang.

Colorful penguin?

Seeing that the phone bug had a squinting look after the call was connected, Vlad guessed the identity of the other party and became curious at the same time.

He knew Paine so well that it could be said that he would know what this perverted penguin would fart if he stuck his butt out, so calling him now would definitely not do anything good.

"Vlad, help!"

Sure enough, the phone bug soon screamed a heart-rending drake voice.

Vlad frowned, and immediately put the phone bug on his left shoulder, then stretched out his right hand to take out a stack of life cards from his pocket, and found the one with Paine's name written on it.

The life card can not only help find the direction of the owner, but also prove the owner's physical condition from the changes in the size of the paper.

Seeing that the life card was still the original size, Vlad was relieved. At the same time, he also wanted to see what the perverted penguin was doing, so he pretended to be nervous and said:

"Pan, what's wrong with you? Where are you? We are so worried about you!"

"Uh......"

There was a brief pause on the other end of the phone, which seemed to be affected by Vlad's attitude, but after a slight ideological struggle, he continued:

"Come and save me, come and save me!"

After shouting for a while, he hung up the phone directly.

Vlad first glanced at the sleeping phone bug on his left shoulder, and then looked at the intact life card in his hand, feeling as uncomfortable as a cat scratching his heart.

"There's definitely something wrong with this penguin, but it's definitely not a big deal. Now I'm just trying to trick you into getting there."

Cervantes, who forcibly terminated the phone call with Lucci, analyzed it from a rational and objective perspective.

"I know, but this guy is rarely smart for once. Although he is only averagely smart, I still want to give him face."

It can be said that Paine understood Vlad's character very well in this phone call. He knew very well that Vlad had an unusual desire for control and curiosity, so he only talked about the beginning of the call and did not say anything else specific.

But what's not smart enough is that this perverted penguin forgot the life card, and no matter how resembling he acted, he couldn't be as convincing as having the life card intact.

"Please wait a few days beforehand to the World Government. I want to see what this perverted penguin wants to do now."

country of music

Elegia

This was originally a prosperous country with flowing music, but it was destroyed by the Four Emperors "Red Hair" Shanks more than ten years ago, and now only a dilapidated ruins are left.

In the dilapidated palace, Paine put down the phone bug in his hand, frowning his thick black eyebrows, looking worried.

"The time has come to test our friendship. Will you travel thousands of miles across the ocean for me?"

His muttering in a low voice made the lion-headed, leopard-headed and other ferocious beasts guarding not far away roll their eyes, and they all had curse words stuck in their throats and didn't know how to curse them out.

In order to woo the female star, Paine came to Elegia with a group of nobles attending a music event. Without even seeing the lover of his dreams, he started calling her because of some rumors.

Now this ruined country has gathered many people who came to participate in the event, including many bounty hunters, slave traders, pirates and even Celestial Dragons.

They have been here for a few days, and they have heard no less than ten times that criminals are going to attack 'World Singer' Uta, either for money or fame.

If there was an idiot speaking wildly on the spot, Paine would naturally take action personally, but they had already killed several waves of pirates and slave traders, and the spreading wild talk had not diminished at all.

Paine wanted to make a big fuss, but he was afraid of affecting the music festival of his dream lover, but otherwise he had no other way to find all these people.

In desperation, Paine thought of Vlad who had the most clever ideas, but he was worried that Vlad and others would ignore him because of the letter he left before, so he finally thought of a way to fake asking for help.

"Do you think Vlad and the others will come?"

Although Paine felt that he had a good grasp of Vlad's psychology, he was still not confident and asked the others.

The members of the Beast Legion looked at each other, and finally choked out a few words:

"perhaps.

may.

should.

Will it? "

"..."

"What do you mean?"

Paine became angry on the spot, stood up angrily, pointed at himself and said:

"Who do you think I am? I am an irreplaceable member of the Ouroboros team. No one can compare to my importance. They would make enemies of the world for me!"
