One Piece: The Eternal Flame

Chapter 60 Cruel shuffling

"This island is called Vegas. It was an ordinary trading city three years ago. After being occupied by the Owen Pirates, it became a supplier of gold products in the nearby area. The gold products it produced were finely crafted, so they were quickly loved by the nobles."

"Right now, the gold export of Vegas is basically monopolized by noble trade. As you all know, we are still a noble trader on the surface, so we have cooperation with Vegas."

"But recently, the appetite of the Owen Pirates is too great, so the boss asked me to negotiate."

Through the introduction of Akatis, the three of Perry also learned about the island.

Perry asked: "Has a gold mine been discovered on the island? The three-year gold transaction involved a huge amount of gold. In the past three years, we have not heard much about the Owen Pirates."

Akatis looked around, and whispered in Perry's ear, "I'm also very surprised about this. I followed the merchant ship to come here the day before yesterday, and found that there were no women or children on the island except for middle-aged men, and there were no gold mines or gold processing factories on the island."

"What do you mean?" Alder, who also leaned over, frowned, "If there are no raw materials, can gold objects fall from the sky?"

"The vice-captain Aaron said that they have reached a cooperation with another island, and the gold artifacts are transported from there, and their captain is also there." Arkatis explained: "But I asked more carefully, and they didn't say anything."

"It's really weird~" Bud rubbed his chin, "Such a vibrant island, wouldn't it be a man-eating monster?"

"Achitis, what are your plans next?" Perry asked.

Akatis shook his head helplessly, "The business has not been settled, so why bother to go back to see the boss~ I'll just wait here for their captain to come back."

"We won't stay on this island for a long time." Perry thought for a while, "In short, let's have a drink when we meet, and finish shopping with us first."

"Hahaha, you don't want me to move things, do you?" Arkatis grinned and said, "Perry, old friends are a scam."

"Why don't the coolies come to your door?" Perry also smiled, "Let's go, there are still a lot of things to buy."

-

The trio who bought tableware and condiments on the other side have already finished shopping and are preparing to return.

They had already discussed the unusual features of this island. Although there was no result, it didn't matter as long as it didn't hinder them.

Andrew picked out the tableware by himself, and was happily carrying two big bags at the moment, while the other two were carrying various condiments.

"Wow, woof!"

Tang En was taken aback, "What's the matter, Tang Tang?"

"What's wrong with it?" Colin looked at Tang Tang, who was a little impatient, and his teeth were facing one direction. He looked in that direction and found nothing wrong.

"Are you hungry?" Andrew asked.

Tang En shook his head and said firmly: "No, it must have found something with this kind of cry."

"...Then follow it and have a look." Colin made up his mind, "I always feel that something is wrong on the island."

After receiving the order, Tang Tang ran in one direction, walked through the intricate alleys, and came to the edge of the island.

Here is a cliff, below is the rough sea, nothing.

The three looked at each other, but Tang Tang was still barking at the edge of the cliff.

"I'll go and have a look." Andrew put down the things in his hand, stepped on the solid cloud and floated in the sky beside the bounty, he shouted in surprise: "Oh, it's a crack, a super-big crack!"

"Haha, where is the treasure hidden by the Owen Pirates?" Colin smiled, "Do we need to go down?"

"No, I'll go in and have a look. If it's really a treasure cave, I have to ask the captain to play." Andrew waved his hand, and entered the huge crack in the cliff by himself.

"...Andrew, be careful, it shouldn't be a treasure cave." Tang En instructed, leaning over and stroking Tang Tang's head. According to Tang Tang's current state, irritable and eager, it is definitely not a good thing.

The two stared at the bottom of the cliff, not knowing when Andrew would come up, but there were chaotic footsteps behind them.

"Wow woof woof! woof!" Tang Tang gritted his teeth at the menacing pirates.

Colin turned his head, stood up and said with a smile, "It seems like a big place."

"Ah, you don't hesitate to confront us." Tang En put his hands on the flintlock pistol at his waist with a sense of knowledge.

"If you want to blame, blame you for being too curious." The visitor grinned.

"Hei Yanhuo, I've seen you all upset for a long time!"

At this time, Andrew also returned to the edge of the cliff with an ugly face, retched twice, and cursed: "Damn, what a bad luck."

"What's down here?" Colin asked with a smile.

"The stacked bones, visually, there are thousands of people, adults and children, the aborigines of this island." Andrew looked at the pirates walking towards them, some of whom they had seen before.

It's the shop owners.

"It's enough to turn into dry bones, at least three years." Tang En coughed, feeling that the place they were standing under suddenly became terrifying.

Countless white bones are stacked together, which constitutes the prosperity and excitement here.

"It's a big reshuffle..." Colin sighed.

Three years ago, the Owen Pirates occupied Vegas Island and gathered all the residents on the island.

The island originally belonged to another pirate group, and the Owen pirate group bought the island and all its residents with a huge amount of gold.

Although the residents who lived under the pirate flag were afraid, they gathered together wisely, but what greeted them was a bloody massacre.

Just overnight, all the people on the island were thrown into the crevice of the cliff, from the elderly to the children and pregnant women, no one escaped.

The bustling island, the wailing everywhere, the blood stained the waning moon in the sky, and when the sun rose the next day, all the sins were covered up.

Under the secret deal of the two pirate groups, Vegas Island underwent a complete reshuffle.

The pirates put down their slaughtering weapons, put on civilian decorations, put on a flattering and cowardly expression, and they became the aborigines of the island.

In the first year, people from other islands also came to visit relatives, but it was just one more corpse in the crack.

Vegas Island became famous for its gold and attracted a large number of merchant ships to buy it. Soon, the "aboriginal people" on the island really became aboriginal people.

A large number of nobles bought gold from here, and the navy could do nothing about it, and was even ordered not to intervene on the island.

——The rotten flowers bloomed on the numerous white bones. The criminals plucked them, and the red blood dripped from the cut-offs, and flowed on the ground, forming a huge wealth.
