Hearing the name of Mad Adventurer who was related to other Pirate Admiral and dared to shoot pirates in Bayam on the street, some of the guests in the bar looked at the man in a windbreaker and top hat with excitement, some shrank in fear, and even sneaked towards the side door, and some started whispering to the people next to them.
At the center of everyone's attention, the man snorted, straightened up, and returned to his seat without nodding or denying.
But most people have identified him with the physical descriptions of "Gehrman Sparrow" in newspapers and rumors.
Angel stared at the performance of the fake Gehrman in amazement, and then looked at Klein, wanting to see his reaction.
The latter was unexpectedly calm. He silently drank the glass of glass beer in his hand, stood up under Angel's teasing eyes, and walked towards the "Gehrman".
"You have also seen that my fame and prestige can serve as my guarantee." The man in the trench coat said to the other two couples at the table, "My team found the whereabouts of 'Ghost Empire' south of the Beluga Whale Sea, near Toscarter Island last week... Have you heard of the Ghost Empire?"
The four people nodded and said they had heard it. They were neatly and decently dressed, and their skin had not been damaged by wind and frost. They were either businessmen or "adventurers" who were called adventurers but actually traveled and came from a wealthy family.
"They have been tracking the whereabouts of the Ghost Ship, but I still lack a ship and some manpower, so I went back to Nass to find a collaborator. Well, I only need five hundred..."
Seeing that the four people were full of interest, "Gehrman" spoke faster and faster, with a meaningful smile on his face.
At this time, the door of the bar was violently pushed open from the outside and hit the wall. The loud noise made him swallow the second half of his sentence.
Klein, who was about to reach out and throw the guy pretending to be him out the door, also stopped and looked at the door.
A young man of Loen descent rushed into the bar, looked around, and then shouted:
"Is there anyone from Adventurers' Mutual Aid Society?"
As soon as he finished asking, he looked back at the door, as if he was being chased by someone, and it would be a great risk to stop.
The next second, a man of medium build wearing a leather jacket and with strong malice in his eyes appeared behind him.
Loen The young man screamed strangely, and rushed deep into the bar in three steps at a time. In the corner near the door, three people dressed as Adventurer stood up. They were all members of "Adventurers' Mutual Aid Society". One of them was more than two meters tall, with tight muscles that almost burst his clothes. He looked like a legendary "giant", which immediately attracted the attention of the leather jacket.
Klein, who was behind "Gehrman", also took this opportunity to confirm the identity of the man who chased him into the bar.
The second mate of "Slaughterer" Kircheis, "King of Immortality" Agalito, is notorious, with bloody hands. Loen alone has a bounty of 9,500 pounds.
This is a big fish, and he delivered it to his door... Klein suddenly became a little excited, and his desire for Gold Pound overcame his interest in "fighting counterfeiting". He reached for the left wheel, and out of the corner of his eye, the figure of Angel quietly disappeared, apparently entering a state of invisibility.
Under the scrutiny of Klein, "Slaughterer" was excited and his face was solemn. He retracted his gaze from the "giant", glanced at Klein, then quickly turned around and left the bar.
He moved smoothly and without hesitation, almost like a guest who had walked through the wrong door rather than a vicious pirate chasing others.
The conflict that came to an abrupt end shocked the drunkards who were preparing to watch the show, the members of "Adventurers' Mutual Aid Society" who came forward, and the man Loen who hid in the bar in a panic.
Klein also retracted his gaze towards the door angrily. He naturally accepted all the pirates who came to his door, but that didn't mean he would chase after them at will and enter Encounter Battle, which he was unfamiliar with.
Especially when the other party is already wary.
But he was also doubtful at the same time. He just looked at Kircheis with the same eyes as he was looking at Gold Pound. He didn't even think about how to do it. The other party was so alert and turned around to leave? Is it because of the two-meter-tall Adventurer, or did he recognize the real "Gehrman Sparrow" in the bar?
In the temporarily quiet bar, the fake "Gehrman" laughed dryly twice more and continued to say to the four men and women in front of him:
"Look, I said that the name Gehrman Sparrow is a pass in Above the Five Seas. So, what are your thoughts?
"It's okay to refuse, but think clearly first, what you refuse is... cough, cough!"
He took a swig of strong wine, widened his eyes behind his gold-rimmed glasses, and threatened, but suddenly he started coughing, spitting out mouthfuls of frothy wine and white-tinged saliva, and his face turned an unhealthy red.
Oh, the four guests at his table all stood up, avoiding "Gehrman" who suddenly showed a Affliction look on his face, covering his chest and coughing continuously.
"Cough, cough, ha..."
As if pulling a broken bellows, "Gehrman" gasped and stood up, looking around with his eyes. Only frightened faces were left in his gradually dim vision.
Snap——
His legs could no longer support him and he fell to his knees. He hesitated for a moment between supporting himself or covering his neck with his hands. He simply let go and lay on the ground, motionless.
"Ge, Gehrman is dead!"
Someone yelled, and drunken or sober drunkards and adventurers whispering around them burst into loud noises. Infecting each other with fear, they rushed toward the wide-open front door and the narrow side door, quickly got out of the bar, and disappeared without a trace.
In less than half a minute, it was as if someone had opened a can of wolf fish. Only Klein was standing there, the bartender hiding at the bar, and a few trembling bar guards.
Even if I was really dead, I shouldn't have made such a fuss... Klein glanced around wordlessly, then looked at the motionless man at his feet, stretched out his foot to kick the man, turned him over and lay on his back, and found that the man was just unconscious, still breathing, and did not seem to be getting worse.
This should teach him a profound lesson, and Angel did not try to kill this fake... He breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at the bartender aside, sneered, and said:
"After this time, he probably won't have the guts to pretend to be 'Gehrman'."
After saying that, he put his hands in his pockets, turned around, and walked towards the door.
"You, how do you know that he is a fake?"
The bartender's somewhat frightened voice came from behind.
"Because, I am the real Gehrman·Si... hiss!"
Klein had a sneer on his lips, stopped sideways, and answered.
But the last few words seemed to be sucked back into his stomach by taking a deep breath, and then he quietly covered his waist and left the bar with a somewhat stiff body.
The figure from behind was a little hasty and embarrassed.
"Because I am the real Gehrman Sparrow."
Imitating the voice of Klein, Angel smiled, supported his waist with one hand, and held down the wide-brimmed hat on his head with the other hand, and said with his head held high.
The white feather on her hat was fluttering in the sea breeze, adding a touch of liveliness to her movements.
Klein covered his face, regretting his behavior in the bar.
At that time, he really just wanted to expose the fake, and had no other thoughts. However, under Angel's performance, he seemed to be extremely, well, "secondary" in the afternoon.
For no reason, he thought of a certain word used to describe this behavior on Earth in his previous life.
The two of them were at Pier 6 of Nast Port, waiting for the arrival of "Admiral of Stars". After the farce in the afternoon, Angel and Klein, who left the bar, had no intention of continuing shopping. Instead, they returned to the hotel to pack their luggage, sorted out various Mystical Item and Charm ammunition for combat, and arrived at the starting point in advance.
Facing a Pirate Admiral, or a "Admiral of Stars" with a higher reputation than those "lieutenant generals", and a Cattleya with a bounty of up to 37,000 pounds, no matter how cautious you are, you can't be too cautious.
After several months of adventure at sea, they were almost armed to the teeth with Mystical Item. They also made a lot of various Charm and bullets in their spare time. Their combat effectiveness was almost as good as anyone below Demigod.
Angel has Grazing hanging on his neck, Rose Necklace with "Desire Apostle", "Judge" and "Wind-blessed", and "" on his left wrist Knight Bracelet", "Hidden Holy Emblem" tied to her right wrist, the "hypocritical" ring on the middle finger of her right hand, the "Good Luck" revolver around her waist, and Charm and ammunition scattered in pockets all over her body, making her feel like she was clinking a little when she walked.
That's the sound of wealth!
Klein also brought most of Mystical Item with him. "Creeping Hunger" is currently in the state of Grazing four souls. Although this is less than the upper limit it can carry, because Klein insists on only Grazing the most evil people, it does not fill the vacancy casually.
Even so, this glove with "Interrogator", "Priest of Light", "Zombie" and "Baron of Corruption" is far stronger than Angel's "Rose Necklace". Of course, the latter was made by Artisan, which limited the negative effects of Mystical Item. If this glove had not been sealed by Mr. Azik, it would have to swallow a living person every other day, which fully reflects the law of "the stronger the ability, the greater the side effects."
Compared with this Mystical Item, the Fishman's Cufflink on the sleeves of Klein, the Biological Toxin Bottle in the pocket, and the Angel are similar, except for the auxiliary items of "Calamity" and Charm, which seem insignificant.
After the heavily armed two men joked for a while, they became quiet and stood side by side looking at the sunset and the night-covered sea, waiting quietly.
When the Nast City church bell behind her rang the eight o'clock bell, a huge sailboat slowly emerged from the thin mist in the distance. It was more than a hundred meters long, but had only three masts. This unscientific structure did not affect its rapid progress on the dark sea, approaching the port where Star still had a little light.
The port lighthouse soon discovered this uninvited guest. The light focused by the reflector shone towards the sailing ship, revealing its flag that gradually became clear in the fog. On it was a huge single eye with no eyelashes, surrounded by ten white Star.
"Star Pirates!"
"Future!"
The surrounding pirates and Sailor exclaimed, recognizing this flagship belonging to "Admiral of Stars" Cattleya.
It was already night at this time, and most of the ships were fixed at the dock, with no way to escape. The Sailors who stayed above aimed their artillery in vain at the "Future" not far away, but no one dared to take action.
In the horrified eyes of everyone, Future slowly stopped less than a hundred meters away from the dock. A woman in a black robe walked onto the bow of the ship, her eyes indifferent, looking in all directions.
In front of her, a ray of light lit up, like stars falling from the sky. Then the stars gradually extended forward and turned into a translucent bridge, crossing a distance of a hundred meters and landing on Pier 6.
The Sailor people standing nearby backed away one after another, for fear of touching the dreamy stars. In front of their eyes, two figures slowly stepped forward, stepped onto the transparent bridge without any hesitation, and walked towards "Future" amidst crisp footsteps.
Walking in front was a woman wearing a wide-brimmed hat and white feathers on her head. Her face was dim in the night, and the hem of her windbreaker was fluttering in the wind. The figure outlined by the slim-fitting black jacket and tight trousers of the same color underneath made the surrounding Sailor stare.
Behind her, Klein was wearing a double-breasted dress, a half-height silk top hat, and gold-rimmed glasses reflecting the focused light of the lighthouse. Her facial expression was indifferent, ignoring the sight of many Sailor behind her, but she was howling helplessly in her heart:
"Finally, I finally got involved with 'Admiral of Stars' in public... Now, even if I jump into the Yellow River, no, I can't clean it up by jumping into the Tussock River!"
