Demons Arrive

"Hey, Village Chief, you kept saying that kid would protect the village, but when it really matters, he's nowhere to be seen?"

"Exactly, that guy probably ran off a long time ago."

"He's just a freeloader and a swindler!"

At this point, Farmer was also starting to doubt himself amidst everyone's questioning. He had so much faith in Leiyin, even planning to marry his daughter to him. How could that guy abandon him in his time of need?

If that's really the case, he can only blame himself for misjudging him!

Farmer said to Verdan, "Verdan, go to the back mountain and look for Leiyin again. If you find him, quickly tell him about the situation here."

Verdan nodded and ran towards the back mountain.

At this time, Anderson's crew had already landed on the island.

Although Anderson wasn't as tall as his younger brother, he was still about 1.9 meters, which is considered tall among ordinary people. Coupled with his robust muscles and being a Devil Fruit user, the villagers felt that today would likely be a disaster.

Not only that, but Anderson brought more than twice as many men as there were villagers, meaning that even if Anderson didn't take action, the villagers wouldn't stand a chance.

The two sides stood facing each other, and Anderson said fiercely, "Farmer, you actually killed my brother while I was away. I can't just pretend nothing happened."

Farmer was silent.

At this moment, some villagers couldn't hold back any longer, "Anderson, it wasn't us who killed your brother, but a kid from elsewhere named Leiyin!"

"Yes, yes, this has nothing to do with us!"

Anderson's face was gloomy, "Then where is the kid you're talking about now?"

Everyone looked at each other, "That kid might have already run away."

Unexpectedly, Anderson burst out laughing, "Are you guys kidding me?"

The deputy village chief also stood up and said, "That's not true, there really is such a kid, he killed Andrin."

"Hmph, how can I believe your nonsense? You killed someone and blamed it on someone I've never heard of, and then the person ran away. If I told you that, would you believe it?"

Anderson's words left the villagers with nothing to say. Although what they said was all true, it certainly sounded like a lie.

As things stand, there's no other way. Judging by Anderson's appearance, he definitely won't let it go unless he gets justice for his brother.

Farmer spoke, "Anderson, what do you want in order to let us go?"

Hearing his words, Anderson laughed loudly again, "Ya haha, as expected, the village chief is different. His awareness is stronger than ordinary people. Okay, I can let the matter of killing Andrin go, but you must agree to two conditions."

When the villagers heard Anderson say this, their eyes lit up. It seemed there was still room for negotiation.

Farmer said helplessly, "Tell me?"

Anderson raised his index finger, "First, the protection fee to be paid will be 50,000 Belly per person per month!"

Fifty thousand?! That's five times the original amount! The villagers couldn't help but show difficult expressions.

Farmer remained relatively calm, "What's the second condition?"

Anderson revealed a sinister look, "Second, you must let your daughter Verdan and that deputy village chief's daughter Jenny come with me."

What?!

Upon hearing this, Farmer was furious, "My daughter and the deputy village chief's daughter are only fifteen years old, how can I let you take them away?! And 50,000 Belly per person per month, even if we don't eat or drink, each household can't save that much money in a month!"

Anderson smiled, "I don't care, I've been thinking about that hot little Verdan all the time, and that Jenny is also a beauty in the making. You killed my brother, so you have to repay me in this way."

At this moment, Farmer understood somewhat. Anderson's real purpose in coming here wasn't to avenge his brother, but to seek greater benefits from the villagers.

In other words, Anderson, as the older brother, didn't feel a trace of sadness for Andrin's death. Instead, he used it as an excuse to exploit the villagers. If he really offered his daughter to such a heartless guy, wouldn't he be pushing his daughter into a pit of fire?

Farmer was different from Anderson. He would rather be cruelly killed by Anderson than let his daughter suffer even the slightest harm.

Thinking this, Farmer drew the sword from his waist, the blade pointing directly at Anderson, "Damn devil, don't even think about it. Even if I fall into the abyss of eternal damnation, I won't let my daughter suffer even half a point of harm!"

Although Farmer doesn't have much fighting power, he is brave, fearless, upright, and loves his daughter. He also likes to trust others unconditionally, which is why he has a high reputation among the villagers.

"Old guy, you've got some guts. In that case, I'll just have to kill all of you and snatch that little Verdan away," Anderson said with a wicked smile.

What?

He originally thought that fighting to the death with this guy might save his daughter's life, but he didn't expect this guy to be so persistent about Verdan. There's no helping it, Verdan is just too beautiful.

Just as Anderson was about to order his men to attack, three ships sailed out of the harbor.

Is that Leiyin?

No, it's not.

It's the villagers from Town West Village who came to reinforce them after receiving the news.

Town East Village and Town West Village have always been very united, and they also understand the principle of "if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold." If Town East Village is massacred, then Town West Village will inevitably suffer a devastating disaster.

The arrival of the Town West Village people brought the number of Pirates and villagers to a tie.

However, it was useless.

Everyone knew that even if the numbers were equal, it would only increase the casualties.

The villagers of Town West Village surrounded the Evil Wolf Pirates as soon as they arrived.

In response, Anderson smiled contemptuously, "Are more and more people coming to die?"

Just like that, the Pirates and the villagers were locked in battle, and in an instant, shouts and the clashing of swords rang out fiercely.

Don't think that the villagers usually don't dare to provoke the Evil Wolf Pirates; that's just for survival. Now that they're not even giving them a way to live, they might as well fight them to the death.

Anderson also rushed into the crowd, but unexpectedly, Miller blocked him, "Your opponent is me!"

Seeing Miller, Anderson smiled coldly, "A Guardian? We'll see how long you can protect these people!"

And so, Anderson and Miller became entangled in a fierce battle.

Just then, Verdan ran back from the back mountain. She saw the crowd fighting on both sides and couldn't help but be stunned: They've already started fighting?

Then, she shouted loudly towards the crowd.

PS: Did Verdan bring Leiyin back?
