Once he entered the cabin, Sheyan immediately pulled out Chris who was hiding behind him. Enunciating each word, he spoke.
"Who was the one who made the bet with you?"
Chris pointed with his finger.
"Him, him, and this one-eyed dragon."
Sheyan lowered his eyelids and lightly replied.
"Look at what you guys have done, hand over the items you used to extort him, and I'll treat today's matter as if it never happened." “
But the 3 of them glanced at each other, the one-eyed dragon lazily replied.
"Christ above! If you agree to a bet, you must accept your loss, this is a rule that has been around for hundreds of years. We didn't take Mr Chris's items for free, we also took out real gold and silver to bet. If we lost, we would have to hand over the items, and not renege on our words like this. This logic can be used anywhere, why don't we look for the chief officer or navigator to judge, as long as one of them nods, we will hand over the items we won! "
As the saying goes, wealth moves people's hearts. These three knew Sheyan's identity, yet they still dared to mess with his' cousin ', so they were definitely not brainless people. Among the three, the tallest and skinniest one was called Mouse Sante. This person had no other skills, but he was unique in identifying the weather and making predictions. He was the right-hand man of the navigator Xiaer. Even in front of Ammand, he had a lot of say, because if something happened to Xiaer, he would be the replacement for the navigator. As for the one-eyed dragon, he usually cheated and swindled, committing all sorts of evil deeds. Yet he was still able to mingle with these vicious fellows, it was all because his eye was blinded while saving Scarface Harry.
Behind these two mischievous fellows were Xiaer and Scarface Harry, these two big shots. Furthermore, Ammand was also suspicious of Sheyan. Therefore, if Sheyan continued to be stubborn, then in the future he would not be able to take a single step on the Bell and Mug, his benefits would be greatly damaged. To Sheyan, he had already racked his brains and relied on a certain amount of luck to climb to this position, how could he act rashly and cause such a situation to occur? Therefore, after hearing the news from Ben Morgan, this fence-sitter, and knowing the identity of these 3 people, the glimmer of hope in Chris's heart sank deeply.
But life is always full of surprises. Facing such a situation, Sheyan walked in front of the 3 of them, staring at them intently, he said word by word.
"Then do you dare to say loudly in front of me: You didn't play any tricks during the gambling with Chris? “
These three had clearly set up a trap for Chris to fall into. How could they not have any tricks up their sleeves? Sheyan coldly glared at the three of them. Mouse Shante and his companions naturally felt a little guilty and did not dare to retort. But the one-eyed dragon was rather rude and unreasonable. Relying on his drunkenness, he slammed the table and stood up. He pointed his right hand at Sheyan's nose and shouted loudly.
"You damned yellow-skinned monkey. I didn't play any tricks. What do you want? “
Sheyan's eyes flashed with a cold glint, abruptly grabbing that impudent right hand that was pointing at his nose, and exerting force upwards. His current strength had already reached a high of 14 points, the one-eyed dragon immediately screamed out, involuntarily tiptoeing, his entire body trembling violently. At this moment, a loud and clear voice sounded from afar.
"Stop! “
That voice obviously belonged to Scarface Harry, and his steps were extremely fast, unknowingly making one associate him with a 30 year old giant brown bear in Alaska. But Sheyan had already ruthlessly exerted force! "Kacha!" One-eyed dragon released an incomparably mournful shriek. His fingers were clearly bent upwards, evidently, Sheyan had cruelly twisted his hand off while he was still alive!
Scarface Harry angrily roared, he was originally tall and sturdy, and now he widened his eyes like copper bells, looking extremely ferocious. His body emitted a faint silver glow, as he clenched his fist and punched forward, giving off the feeling of a wall pressing against him. At this moment, one would be shocked to discover that this tall and sturdy looking man was actually a ruthless bandit who killed without batting an eyelid. But at this moment, Sheyan noticed Scarface Harry's dense bloodshot eyes.
Sheyan extended his hand, "Pa!" he grabbed Scarface Harry's fist, retreating half a step. The two of them were in a deadlock, staring at each other fiercely, their gazes seemingly colliding in the air and creating a series of sparks! Sheyan's eyes seemed to be burning, coldly uttering out each word.
"No one can insult my skin color! No, no one! "
He instantly escalated this matter to a racial insult, causing Scarface Harry to be momentarily speechless. Xiaer also rushed over upon hearing the news, he couldn't wait for Scarface Harry to start a fight with Sheyan, thus he stood by the side and watched. But Scarface Harry was extremely experienced, he coldly snorted and retracted his fist, causing Xiaer to be extremely disappointed. Instead, Rat Shante saw his backer had arrived, he couldn't help fanning the flames.
"Even if you said a wrong word, you shouldn't have broken a hand right?"
Sheyan turned his head, staring at him coldly.
"Then if I call you a black bastard, would you be happy?"
Rat Shante's expression instantly turned ugly, looking at his appearance he wanted to pull out his knife and pounce forward, but ultimately he didn't have the guts. But at this moment, Xiaer couldn't sit idly by, he stood out with a fake smile and said.
"Seaman Yan, your mouth really stinks 10 times more than Old Burke's toilet."
Sheyan glanced over, but unexpectedly wasn't willing to back down.
"Towards those liars and masterminds who deserve to be hanged, you shouldn't display your gentlemanly demeanor."
Xiaer's face flushed red, "Clang!" he pulled out half of his rapier from his waist. But at this moment, a silver rapier flew in from the heavens, "Clang!" it stabbed into the ground in front of them, trembling and swaying. The rapier's body was enshrouded with a layer of water like brilliance, it was Ammand's rapier that killed countless people!
Following closely, Ammand walked in, using his eagle like eyes to scan the entire room, he suddenly lowered his voice and asked.
"Who can tell me what happened?"
No one replied.
Ammand suddenly flew into a rage. He slapped the table in front of him, causing it to explode and fly in all directions. He roared loudly, "What the hell is going on?
"What's going on!! What the hell is going on! There was still at most half an hour before they reached Lotus Island, the boatswain, chief officer and navigator of the Bell and Mug were already having an internal conflict! Do you want to throw away my face in front of all the pirates? "
At this moment, Scarface Harry stood up, but he didn't question the half-dead one-eyed pirate, instead, he asked a nearby pirate a few questions, clarifying the ins and outs of this matter. He then leaned over to Ammand and whispered a few words. Ammand's expression was unsettled, he suddenly looked at Sheyan and coldly asked.
"You really want to stand up for him?"
When Chris heard this, his entire body including his chrysanthemum tightened. Even a blind man could tell that Ammand was extremely suspicious of Sheyan, he obviously wanted Sheyan to pay a huge price. But Sheyan didn't hesitate to reply.
"Our bodies have the same blood flowing in it, and I owe him a life! Captain! “
Ammand snorted coldly, he then leisurely continued.
"This matter is very obvious, you think they are lying, but you don't have any evidence right?" “
Sheyan very bluntly replied.
"Yes." “
Ammand coldly swept his gaze over Mouse Sante and the other two, as though he was sizing up trash.
"However, I know what kind of conduct these three people usually have. How about this, according to the customs of us pirates, we don't have a rule of returning lost items. But, I'll give you a chance to win it back. You and the three of them have a bet, if you lose, this matter ends here. If you win, the item will be returned to its rightful owner. No matter if you win or lose, this matter ends here! What do you guys think? "
This way of handling things was very much in line with the pirate's principles, to win back lost items. To Mouse Sante and the other two scoundrels, they were very confident in gambling, they didn't dare to not give Ammand face, naturally they agreed without hesitation. But to Sheyan who had an entire 13 points of perceptive sense, winning the bet wasn't a big issue. Honestly speaking, Ammand was even slightly biased towards Sheyan, because Sheyan didn't need to take out any stakes, even if he lost, he wouldn't lose anything.
Ammand's way of handling things was indeed out of everyone's expectations. But only Scarface Harry who had followed him for many years faintly understood his intentions. Sheyan seemed to have offended everyone on the ship, but in reality, it also indicated that he didn't have any ambition to form a gang. As a captain, Ammand's greatest fear was for a talented and ambitious person to appear under his command. This way, his position would be greatly threatened, and no matter how magnanimous Ammand's character was, he wouldn't tolerate such a person.
But to Ammand, he had personally witnessed the scene of Xiaer being forced to the point of drawing his sword, his heart instantly relaxed. There was a saying, 'one's ass determines one's head'. To the ambitious Ammand of the Seven Seas, the character of his subordinates was unruly, ruthless and even greedy and unkind. These were not important, it could even be said to be an advantage. If a captain who aspired to become a pirate king didn't have such magnanimity, then he might as well wash his hands and buy a noble title to enjoy life. As long as this guy didn't form a gang to win people's hearts, then no matter how talented he was or how unruly he was, he was just a knife in his hand!
