Roy could not figure out what was happening to him, so he could only temporarily put down his thoughts of exploring.
At this moment, Jack Sparrow's eyes were rolling around, sizing up the situation on the ship. When he realized that the price he proposed was not what this demon in front of him wanted, Jack Sparrow began to consider how to escape.
Making a deal with a demon was a very dangerous thing. When the negotiation failed, Jack Sparrow was worried. What if this demon was in a bad mood and directly took away his soul …
Roy also noticed Jack Sparrow's thoughts. He did not care much about Jack Sparrow's soul, but as a demon, he would not be a demon if he let Jack Sparrow leave his ship so easily.
Roy suddenly had an idea.
He stood up, walked in front of Jack Sparrow, bent down, and looked straight at him. "Although I'm not interested in the deal you proposed, you're the first person in this world to take the initiative to find me, so I can give you preferential treatment!"
"W-what preferential treatment?" Jack Sparrow asked carefully.
"Another deal!" Roy grinned at Jack Sparrow. "Do you like money?"
"Of course!" Jack Sparrow shrugged, pretending to be relaxed. "Who in this world doesn't like money?"
"In that case, I'll give you a chance!" Roy said as he stretched out his right hand in the air, his palm facing the deck.
Jack Sparrow was a little puzzled as to what Roy wanted to do, but before he could ask, a golden flash appeared in Roy's hand!
Ding! The golden item fell to the deck and made a crisp and melodious sound. When Jack Sparrow heard the sound, his ears immediately perked up!
Before he could cry out in surprise, another golden item fell from Roy's hand …
One, two … ten, a hundred! Under Jack Sparrow's dumbfounded gaze, a large number of gold bars fell from the void and landed on the deck, colliding with the other gold bars and making crisp sounds.
"Heavens … heavens!" Jack Sparrow knelt down, ignored the danger of being hit by the gold bars, and pounced on them.
However, Roy continued to release the gold bars from the system space, and the kneeling Jack Sparrow was quickly buried in the pile of gold bars.
Finally, when Jack Sparrow was buried until only his head was exposed, Roy finally stopped releasing the gold bars. But at this moment, most of the deck was submerged by the gold bars. Thousands of golden yellow croakers dazzled Jack Sparrow, who was buried in them. He excitedly enjoyed the feeling of lying in the pile of gold. He did not mind the fact that he was almost buried. Instead, he tried to swim in the pile of gold, stirring the gold bars and making clattering sounds.
Looking at Jack's excited expression, Roy was sure that humans really could not see the black mist on the gold …
After Jack Sparrow vented his anger in the pile of gold, Roy said with a calm expression, "How is it? Do you like it?"
"Heavens!" Jack Sparrow grabbed several gold bars, kissed them hard, and shouted, "It's true! You're definitely not a demon but a true angel! No, even angels aren't as generous as you! Oh, look at these cute little guys. Their colors are so charming, and their voices are so pleasant. They … are the cutest things in this world! "
After seeing the thousands of gold bars, even Jack Sparrow's tone toward Roy changed, and he used honorifics.
Roy looked at Jack Sparrow, as though he had already treated the gold as his own. He did not say anything and allowed Jack Sparrow to be intoxicated. After a while, Roy suddenly said calmly, "I know you love this gold, but who told you that I'm going to give it all to you?"
When this sentence reached Jack Sparrow's ears, it was like a bolt from the blue. Jack Sparrow froze all of a sudden!
"W-what did you say? It's not for me? "Jack Sparrow turned around in disbelief and looked at Roy with an extremely wonderful expression on his face.
Roy returned to the frozen chair and sat down again. He supported his cheek with one hand and said to Jack Sparrow, "I still have a lot of gold like this. What you see now is at most one percent. It can even be said that if I take out all of this gold, I won't even be able to fit this entire ship!"
After Jack Sparrow heard this, he took a deep breath, but then his breathing became heavy.
Gold that even this ship can't fit? How much wealth is that?! Perhaps because of the stimulation of this wealth, Jack Sparrow's mind became a little clearer. He asked carefully, "Your Excellency, if I didn't hear wrongly, you seemed to have said … give me another chance to make a deal?"
"That's right!" Roy nodded. "The rule of this deal is that you leave what you have on you. Anything is fine, and then you can take away the same weight of gold from my ship!"
"How is it? Fair, right? This is a preferential treatment that only you can get! "With that, Roy could not help but smile.
Although Jack Sparrow felt that Roy's smile was terrifying no matter how he looked at it, Jack Sparrow could not care less and asked impatiently, "Anything is really fine?"
"Of course!" Roy nodded again to confirm and even stretched out his hand to make a 'please start your performance' gesture …
The next second, Jack Sparrow immediately took off the captain's hat on his head, threw it on the deck, and immediately began to take off his coat.
Not long after, Jack Sparrow stripped himself naked. All the clothes and pants on his body, along with the messy accessories, his gun, cutlass, rum bottle, and so on, were taken off by him.
He wanted to use these things to exchange for gold from Roy …
"Very good!" Roy moved his fingers, and the clothes that Jack Sparrow had taken off floated in the air. Roy weighed them in his hands and said, "I can exchange these things for two kilograms of gold!"
As soon as he finished speaking, twenty gold bars flew out of the pile of gold, flew in front of Jack Sparrow, and then fell at his feet.
Due to his naked body, Jack Sparrow was already shivering from the cold on this Frozen Ghost Ship. But looking at the twenty gold bars at his feet and then at the thousands of gold bars in the pile, Jack Sparrow suddenly felt a huge contrast and quickly said, "Wait! Wait! There's more! "
Roy did not say anything and gestured for him to continue.
Jack Sparrow seemed to have thought of something. With a flick of his fingers, he picked up an empty rum bottle from the ground and turned around. With a crashing sound, an orange-yellow liquid appeared in the bottle.
After he finished peeing, this guy carefully shook his bladder, afraid that a drop would leak out. After completely cleaning up his bladder, he turned around and looked at Roy nervously.
Roy was cursing this bastard Jack Sparrow in his heart, but he remained expressionless. He nodded to express his approval and threw two more gold bars over.
Jack Sparrow heaved a sigh of relief and continued to look for things on his body that could be exchanged for gold. He even cut off a piece of his hair, but he later found that the weight of his hair was too light and could not be exchanged for much gold. Otherwise, Roy reckoned that he would have even taken out his hair to exchange …
In the end, when he could not find anything, Jack Sparrow suddenly saw the saber he had thrown away.
He picked up the saber, made a few gestures, and then looked hesitantly at his arm, which had become black from not bathing for a long time.
At this moment, Roy also sat up straight. The most important part of the game had arrived!
Roy had said before that anything could be used to exchange for gold, but how much weight could mere worldly possessions have? Therefore, the players in this game would definitely think of the flesh on their bodies in the end!
An arm, including the flesh and bones, weighed at least a dozen kilograms, and it could naturally be exchanged for more gold …
Cassandra clearly understood Roy's deeper meaning, so her pair of skeletal eyes stared intently at Jack Sparrow, wanting to see what choice he would make.
Jack Sparrow held the saber in his right hand and gestured at his left arm, but he could not do it. Roy did not urge him and just watched.
After struggling for a long time, Jack Sparrow finally gave up. He threw the saber away and said to Roy dejectedly, "This is all I can exchange for!"
Roy did not say anything and nodded. "Okay, you can take the gold away!"
Jack Sparrow picked up the gold bars on the ground. With the gold in his arms, he walked back to the side of the ship with a reluctant look.
After he returned to the boat and put the gold down, he slowly rowed the boat away.
In the end, he didn't manage to stab his own arm. Similarly, he didn't abandon the compass. That was the only thing he brought with him that he didn't exchange for gold. It seemed like in his heart, the compass that could help him retrieve the Black Pearl was more important than the gold.
Of course, it was also possible that he planned to use the compass to find Roy's Frozen Ghost Ship and trade for the gold a second time. Who knew what his true goal was …
After Jack Sparrow left, Cassandra asked Roy, "Master, why did you make such a deal with him?"
"I just want to see how greedy he is!" Roy said. "If he really cuts off his arm to exchange for the gold, then he won't be far from death. I won't treat him at all. He'll bleed to death in this sea. Even if he can take the gold away, he won't have the life to enjoy it! At that time, I'll take away his soul! "
Cassandra said. "In that case, this man still has a bottom line … He hasn't been blinded by greed."
"Who knows? If I told him that the things on him could be exchanged for ten times the weight of gold, would he still be able to maintain his rationality?" Roy smiled, returned to the deck, picked up the clothes left behind by Jack Sparrow, and then found a pendant in the pile of clothes.
This pendant was originally on Jack Sparrow's turban, so Roy recognized it at a glance.
"This is one of the tokens of the Pirate King that sealed the Goddess Calypso, right? Sure enough, I got it without any effort! "Roy raised the pendant and looked at the silver coin at the bottom of it. He could not help but laugh.
Yes, Roy did not hesitate to create such a trading game and even endured watching Jack Sparrow's unsightly performance in order to obtain the seal token passed down by his father. This was probably what Jack Sparrow could really take out, and it could be considered a bargaining chip …
