Chapter 86 The Philosopher Among Criminals
Speaking of afro, the first person Zhang Da thought of was Brook. After all, he was only a skeleton when he was resurrected, so it would be reasonable for him to ask an organ dealer for some organs... Bullshit.
That funny lecherous skeleton wouldn't do such a thing, and he should still be floating in the Devil's Triangle now.
Then there is the current admiral of the navy and future marshal of the navy, Sengoku. He also has an afro, and after the transformation he can turn it into a golden afro.
It is even more impossible for him to murder Zhang Daye for no reason.
Finally, there is the great Usopp. If he takes off his headscarf, he will still have an afro, but he is probably only in his teens now and is still playing One Piece games at home.
Zhang Da had no impression of the others. Perhaps they were not the main characters. He continued to ask, "Are there any other characteristics?"
"There's nothing special about him except that he was wearing a pair of sunglasses. He came alone when he came to us to trade, without any companions." The big man explained the whole thing in a very straightforward manner.
They were a group of people who were originally doing some "small business" near Island No. 3, and had intended to take advantage of the recent chaos in the lawless area to reap a little more profit.
Then I met that guy with the afro yesterday. He said he had his eyes on the organs of a pub owner and had agreed on a generous reward, but in fact he didn’t even pay the deposit.
The reason they dare to take it is because they are not afraid of losing money at all. As long as they catch the person, they will have no trouble selling it.
So they conducted a brief investigation of the tavern, and the information they got was: the guard in the tavern could beat ten people at once, the tavern owner was a weakling, the tavern cat was very smart, and the tavern waitress looked easy to bully.
There's nothing to be afraid of. The strongest guard can only beat ten people at once. Who can't beat ten people at once?
Upon further inquiry, it turned out that "Running Tatsuya" was also called "Folding Stool Tatsuya". This person had very regular living habits and went jogging on the island every morning, so it would not be easy to find an opportunity to ambush him.
So what happened today happened.
Zhang Da also continued to ask: "So where is the transaction location you agreed on?"
"In your tavern."
"Huh?" Zhang Da also dug his ears and asked, "I might have heard it wrong just now. Where did you say it was?"
"You heard it right. We are delivering the goods at your tavern." The big man explained, "If we successfully catch you, we will burn down the tavern as a signal, and then complete the transaction in front of the ruins of the tavern on the third night after the fire."
"I..." Zhang Da was speechless. This was too cruel.
In this way, even if Zhang Da wants to pretend to be this group of people to complete the transaction, he has to carefully consider whether he is willing to do so.
Even if he gritted his teeth and burned down the tavern himself, he could just rebuild it later. But he still had to consider where to hide for the next three days and whether he would be discovered.
What he feared most was the possibility that the so-called employer was not after the organs at all, but simply wanted to destroy the pub. That would be too disgusting.
"Why are all the opponents I meet like this? Can't they just stand up and confront me head-on?" Zhang Da also felt very tired.
The big man lying on the ground complained in his heart, the consequences of confronting you head-on are right in front of you. If I had known that you were so powerful, I would not have confronted you head-on.
Zhang Da also kicked him: "I always feel that the way you look at me is full of malice. Tell me, are you hiding something?"
Tom looked left and right, picked up a dagger and ran over to help threaten him.
"That's really not the case. I've told you everything I know! Hey, keep an eye on your cat, it's very dangerous." The big man knew that he was in danger, but at least he didn't want to die at the hands of a cat, nor did he want to be tormented by a cat before he died.
"So how much is your reward?" Zhang Da also decided that since he couldn't find the employer through them, he would just kill him and collect the reward. These organ traffickers are not much better than human traffickers.
The big man replied, "No, there is no bounty on any of our twelve."
"Impossible? How could a criminal gang of your strength not have a reward?" Zhang Da didn't believe it at all.
There is a bounty on Pittman and his gang who are obviously much weaker than them. How could there be no bounty when these guys are so much stronger than them? It can't be that this is the first time they have done something bad, right?
Speaking of this, the big man's expression suddenly became a little serious: "Please don't use your suspicious eyes to insult professional criminals like us!
In my opinion, a truly successful criminal should be one who commits his crimes skillfully and covertly, and should never be caught by law enforcement officers. Even if he dies, he should die in obscurity.
It is because we have always adhered to this principle that even if we have committed countless crimes, we can still act openly. Even if we are following a target person, we can pretend to be an ordinary person and walk into the crowd without fear of being recognized!
I always teach them that as a criminal, when he becomes famous and faces countless pursuits, he is destined to be a loser! Even the Pirate King is no exception! "
These words were spoken with great force and passion, as if stating his life creed.
Rui Mengmeng raised her hand and said weakly : "Boss, why do I feel that what he said seems to make sense?"
"..." Zhang Da wanted to say that I think so too. This guy is actually a philosopher among criminals, but...
"Why are you so proud of yourself, a criminal?" Zhang Da also hit him on the head with the hilt of the sword, knocking him unconscious.
"Don't let him lead you in the right direction. It's better to kill a scum like him as soon as possible. In a way, he is more dangerous than those notorious people."
"Oh." Rui Mengmeng nodded, "Then Boss, what should we do next? If we don't find out who is behind this, will someone ambush us again in the future?"
"Yeah, I'm also worried about what to do..." Zhang Da said helplessly, "We can't really burn down the tavern to see if we can lure them out, right?"
"I'm afraid it would be useless even if we burn it." Altria said, "The person who can come up with burning the tavern as a signal may have other ways to confirm whether these people succeeded."
"Then we can only wait for them to make a move next time?" Zhang Da said depressedly, "Maybe next time we won't have many clues like this time."
Altria said, "It's also possible that these people are used by them to test us, and they will show up in person next time."
"There's no other way, let's just wait. You have to be more careful when going out recently." Zhang Da also felt that this style of doing things was very much like Biznis. Maybe the man he sent out this time had an afro?
"Then... Boss, what should we do with these people?" Rui Mengmeng asked, pointing at the organ dealer lying on the ground.
Tom was holding a branch and poking here and there. He must have learned this bad habit from Cami.
"That guy said they had committed countless crimes, but law enforcement officers had never found any evidence. So let's fulfill their wish and let them die in obscurity. To be honest, I didn't even ask their names."
