Kobe, take the basketball fruit to the Pirates

Chapter 68
Ezio looked at Pico's thumbs up, and still gave Pico a contemptuous look, with a feeling of superiority, as if to say, 'I still give you a thumbs up? '.

Peko didn't care, but the smile on his face remained the same.This instead made Ezio frown.

Others also noticed the abnormality, no matter how powerful the people are, they are still human beings, and their subtle expressions always change.

"No, how can this kid still laugh?"

'Could it not be that he also wished gunpowder to be banned? '

Ezio secretly thought in his heart, no wonder he would think so, after all, there are no good people in the world in the eyes of selfish people.

At this time, Pico said with a sly smile: "Then if the big pit wasn't caused by gunpowder, I don't know this old minister who was smashed to pieces, would you still ban gunpowder?".

Ezio hesitated for a few seconds. In fact, he had obtained the information long ago, otherwise it would be impossible to organize so many people.

His son brought someone to check the information in person. No matter from the content of the information or his son's description, it is almost 100% certain that it must have been caused by a gunpowder explosion.

So he confidently walked towards Bi Ke, and said seriously: "If the big pit was not blown up by gunpowder, then naturally there is no need to ban gunpowder."

He paused again as he spoke, turned around and looked at Annabella and said sincerely, "If it's a big hole, it's gunpowder."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Pike with a smile, "Stop, stop, stop, I can prove that the big hole was not blown up by gunpowder."

As soon as Pico's words fell, voices of discussion suddenly sounded in the hall. Uncle Kaqiwo and Luxima had doubts in their eyes at first, but soon turned into trust.

They knew that Peko was not a big talker.

At this time, Ezio couldn't sit still. The prohibition of gunpowder was what nobles like them had been trying to do in the past few days.

"What proof do you have? The facts are right in front of you, do you still need proof?"

Ezio walked in front of Pike angrily, his face was full of anger, "What else can there be without gunpowder, which can have such power that it will shake the entire Burning Castle."

"Have!"

An energy basketball was condensed in Pike's hand, with a playful smile on his face, "My fruit skill can be so powerful. And that big hole was made by me experimenting with new skills last night."

As soon as Bi Ke said this, the originally chaotic hall fell silent, and all the ministers looked at Bi Ke who was holding a strange ball in his hand in disbelief.

Ezio's reaction was the most intense. He first subconsciously took a few steps back, because he felt the energy emanating from Pike at this moment.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible"

Ezio backed away while shaking his right hand, "If you want to do this, you can take care of that traitor Onistine yourself, and you still need people from the Capital Guard?".

What happened in the fighting arena that day, only those who entered know.However, the official news is that Bi Ke and the guards of the capital teamed up to defeat the rebels and killed Onistin.

The reason for doing this was because Annabella still wanted to maintain the dignity of the old king, and she didn't want him to continue being scolded after he died.And it may also cause people's distrust of the royal family.

At this moment, the only guard of the capital in the main hall, the first minister, Dean Asby, blushed slightly when he heard Ezio's words.Because he knew very well that they would not get involved in the final battle between Beko and Ornistine.It is true that Beko solved the problem of Onistine himself.

"that."

Asbi walked out of the queue with some embarrassment, and moved his hands a few times indiscriminately, "Onistin was indeed dealt with by Peko himself, and we just... cleared up some miscellaneous soldiers."

Hearing this, Ezio glared at Asbi angrily, but still refused to give up.

"Although I was locked in the prison that day and was not in the fighting arena, I didn't feel the same shock as yesterday"

He said and looked around everyone, "You all felt it last night, too. The powerful explosion almost made me think it was an earthquake."

Hearing what he said, Asbi nodded in agreement, and then looked suspiciously at Pico.Indeed, as Ezio said, the commotion yesterday was too great.With the combat power displayed by Beko in the fighting arena, it cannot cause such an effect.

And there is another point, that is, Pike was in a coma for six days, woke up on the seventh day and was busy all day, how could he have time to develop new fruit skills.

Not only Asby thought of this, but everyone else thought of it too.Even Uncle Kachwo and Lucima scratched their heads.Because they woke up from Pico, they were almost together, knowing that Pico had no time to study the devil fruit.

They believe in Beko's talent, but talent also takes time to realize.

At this moment, Annabella, who was sitting in a high position, suddenly said, "Well, let me put this matter aside for now, wait"

"no!"

"no!"

Two voices interrupted her at the same time, one from Peko and the other from Ezio.The difference between the two is that Ezio interrupted Annabella's speech and quickly apologized sincerely to Annabella.

When Ezio apologized, Peko said again: "It's true or not, we'll find out if we go outside the city now."

Annabella originally thought that Pico was just speaking to make Ezio's plan go to waste, but now seeing Pico's confident look, she smiled again and nodded.

"Sure enough, what my father said before was not wrong. He is really a strong man who is one in a million. He even developed the new ability of the devil fruit in less than a day."

Afterwards, Annabella also remembered when the two met on the mountain before, "I guess he thought of it when I gave him a massage."

Thinking of this made Annabella even more delighted and gave her a wonderful sense of participation.

After that, everyone came to the outside of the city soon, and Pico had already arrived early.Everyone looked at Pi Ke who kept running in circles, feeling a little confused.

Only Uncle Kaqiwo saw some clues, and immediately understood why he could develop a powerful fruit skill in less than a day.Probably he knew that Peko had upgraded and modified the 'Open Door'.

"Why are you running, hurry up and stop dawdling, we have to go back later and prepare to draw up a copy of the 'prohibition on contact with gunpowder'"

Ezio looked at Peko who kept running, and said impatiently.He thought Peko was wasting time.

The reason why Pike ran was because these people came too slowly, he was afraid that the accumulated energy would be dissipated.

"Ha ha!"

Pi Ke sneered, and shouted to everyone, "You'd better stay away from me."

"Hurry up, the old man is here watching you"

Ezio sneered back, with disdain in his eyes, "I'll see what tricks you can play."

And those people who stood up with him before also stood behind him and did not intend to leave.But Annabella obeyed Pike's words and walked a distance of more than ten meters away.Others followed suit.

Unexpectedly, Biko saw their movement and said again: "Not enough, go further, go further."

Annabelle could only lead the people back more than ten meters, but Pico still said it was not enough, so everyone retreated to a distance of more than 50 meters from Pico.

And all of this, in Ezio's view, was nothing but Pico's bluff.
