"Sorry, four aces …" Snow calmly threw down his cards. Then, he raised his eyes to look at the three people sitting opposite him, who looked stunned. "Then, I'll just …"
As he spoke, he reached out to take the money in front of him.
"Wait!" At that moment, there was a soft shout. At the same time, another hand … quickly covered the money.
And the owner of that hand was the skinny man with brown curly hair.
"What?" Snow looked at him with a half-smile. "You want to go back on your word?"
"What are you talking about?" Before the skinny man could speak, the man with the blue headscarf on his head said, "Do you know who you are talking to?"
"I don't know," Snow answered calmly.
He was speaking the truth. He really did not know who that guy was.
However, it was precisely this very "ordinary" response that ignited a nameless flame in the other party's heart.
It had to be said that this was also one of Snow's "gifts". His every movement exuded an invisible sense of superiority. Even a very ordinary and not rude remark could make people angry when it came from his mouth. And … the less confident a person was, the easier it was to be angered by him.
"You are very arrogant, aren't you!" The blue headscarf could not take it anymore. He grabbed Snow's collar and pulled him to stand up.
"Hey, hey, what are you doing? Are you bullying me? " Feng Bujue's reaction was fast. He came over and shouted, "Do you think I'm dead?"
"Who do you think you are?" The blue headscarf was not to be outdone. He used his loud voice to shout back at his Brother Bujue.
Looking at their posture, it seemed that they were about to start fighting.
Many pirates nearby also turned their heads, ready to watch the show.
At that moment …
"Godfrey." The skinny man's slightly gloomy voice sounded again. "Let him go."
The man called "Godfrey" was no doubt the blue headscarf. After he heard that, he glared fiercely at the two players before letting go of Snow.
"The two of you …" After Godfrey sat down again, the skinny man said, "Can you … sit down and talk?"
When he said this, he even gave them a look, which meant … Please pay attention to the situation around you.
One second later, Feng Bujue was the first to reply. He nudged Snow's arm without batting an eyelid. "Sure, let's sit."
The latter immediately understood. He straightened his clothes and sat down again without saying a word.
"Hmph …" After the two of them sat down, the skinny man snorted coldly. He lowered his voice and said, "I really didn't expect … to meet experts here today, and … two of them at that."
"What are you talking about?" Feng Bujue picked his nose and said loudly, "Didn't I say it from the beginning? I'm really good at playing cards … Do you think you can renege on your debt just by praising us after you lose? "
"Save it …" the skinny man continued in a low voice, "When you opened your mouth, I could tell that you were faking it on purpose. Then I guessed … you were planning to pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger." As he spoke, he shifted his gaze to Snow. "I originally thought … you found a so-called 'fellow countryman' to use him as' bait 'so that you could make your move. But I didn't expect … the two of you to be 'hooks'. "
"Cut the crap." Since he had already said so much, Feng Bujue was too lazy to pretend anymore. In the blink of an eye, he seemed to have changed into a different person. He used a more intimidating expression and a more gloomy tone to reply coldly, "The rules of the underworld … There's no taking back an arrow that has been shot, and there's no return money for a bet. Since you already know that we're not 'dots', then either you don't play with us, or you admit defeat … and admit that you're not as good as us. "He paused for half a second and put on a ferocious expression." What are you now? Not only can you not win, but you can't even afford to play? "
Brother Jue was quite proficient in slang. Although he did not know how the System translated his words, other than the skinny man, Brother Body Hair and Godfrey were already stunned by his words.
"Alright …" After a moment of silence, the skinny man replied, "I admit defeat today …" He moved his hand that had not moved for a long time away from the bet. "You can take the money …"
Everyone knew that he was going to say a 'but'.
"But …" the skinny man said, "You have to tell me, how did you cheat just now?"
As a swindler, the skinny man's words were equivalent to admitting defeat. Logically speaking, Brother Jue and the rest should have given him a way out at this time. As the saying goes, 'Leave a way out for others so that we can meet again in the future.'
However …
"What do you mean?" Feng Bujue took advantage of the situation and used a lecturing tone to fire off a barrage of questions. "Don't you know the rules? Is there a need to ask this? How did you get to where you are today? "
"Don't go overboard!" This time, Brother Body Hair could not take it anymore. "This is the famous' Garlic 'Bro, how dare you say he doesn't know the rules?"
"What 'Garlic' Bro, I've never heard of him." Feng Bujue rolled his eyes at him and replied arrogantly, "And … you're just a 'stacked boy,' why are you interrupting? Do you really think that no one can see through the cards hidden in your fur? "
"Enough!" Bro Garlic finally could not take it anymore and shouted, "Since you're so arrogant, I'd like to hear … where are you from? Tell me the name of the character! "
His shout was a little too much … Instantly, everyone in the vicinity turned their gazes over.
"Heh … You really hit the nail on the head with this question …" What was even more unexpected was that two seconds later, a deep and rough voice was heard from the other side of the mast.
Thump, thump, thump …
Accompanied by a series of heavy footsteps, the person who had spoken walked around the mast step by step. As he walked, he said, "Even I have heard of his name …"
At this moment, other than Snow, everyone knew who the person who had not yet appeared was.
"People call him … Laughing at the vast sea, breaking through thousands of armies, planning the universe and calculating karma …"
After reciting the first two lines, Blackbeard's figure had already appeared beside the dumbstruck 'Garlic Trio'.
"… Feeling nothing, fearing no life and death, not a ghost, not a god, like a mad demon."
When Blackbeard finished reciting the entire poem, he was already standing in front of Brother Jue and looking into his eyes.
The two of them … were not in a hurry to communicate. After meeting each other, they just looked at each other silently and smiled without saying anything.
On the other hand, the pirates on the deck had their hearts in their throats. Although these dozens of people looked ferocious, they didn't even dare to breathe loudly at this moment.
