Pirate Throne of Salt

"You mean, you and Hiyori Kozuki were kidnapped by a very powerful person, and then she created an opportunity for you, so you escaped?"

In Matthew's room, the little girl who was rescued by Barsad on the boat looked at Matthew with some fear.

For some reason, when she saw Matthew, she felt as if she had met a natural enemy. It felt as if everything about her was being held tightly by the man in front of her. She only needed to wave his hand and he could... Say goodbye to this beautiful world.

"Yes, Mr. Matthew, please be sure to save Ri and sister..."

Matthew rubbed the life card handed over by the girl. It was indeed his. So, based on what the girl said and Doflamingo's information, Matthew could already guess the general outline of the matter.

"Okay, Barsad, find a safe island and send her away..."

When the girl heard Matthew's arrangement, her eyes widened: "Hey! How can you be like this? Sister Hiyori believes in you so much, but you don't even save her! How can you be such a person!"

Matthew raised his head and shot a sharp look at the girl. Suddenly, the girl stopped talking and slowly stepped back because this look made her feel danger.

"Your mission has been completed. Just get off the boat at the next island. The rest is our business, so I advise you to be obedient."

After that, Matthew opened the door and walked out, leaving the girl standing there.

……

On the deck of the second floor, Shi Sheng looked at Matthew with a slight smile.

"Captain, do you really want to leave that little girl named Yumi alone on the island?"

"Otherwise? Do you want to keep her on the ship? She's just a child. Her origins and abilities are unknown. At present, it seems that she only has the slightest connection with Kozuki Hiwa..."

Speaking of light, moon and sun, Matthew sighed softly.

"I don't know how that girl Hiyori is doing now..."

"Hahahahaha, this is the first time I've seen the captain's expression. Don't worry, captain. Normally, humans captured by slave ships like this are basically not in any danger as long as they are not handed over to the seller."

"Well, if there is any danger, I will make those people pay back a hundredfold!"

……

At night, a full moon hangs high in the sky, and the cool sea breeze gently blows across the sea, causing waves.

On the Helios, everyone was asleep except Barsad who was keeping vigil.

At this moment, Barsad was sitting on the deck, staring blankly at the photo in his hand through the moonlight. A gust of cold wind blew by, making him shiver.

Returning to the restaurant in the cabin, the little loli named Yumei who he had picked up was lying on the sofa and fast asleep. Because Yumei was small, she curled up when sleeping. , looking from Barsad's position, like a kitten.

Taking off his coat and gently covering Yumei's body, Barsad smiled. At this moment, he suddenly thought of his father for some reason.

"Dad, at that time, he covered me with a quilt like this, right?"

After murmuring softly, Barsad rubbed his head.

"Really, how could I suddenly think of this..."

Just when Bassad was about to tiptoe out of the cabin, a strange feeling suddenly came from behind.

"This is……"

"Captain's breath?"

……

two hours ago.

Matthew lay on his bed and slowly closed his eyes. Although his physique could already last for days and nights without rest, the habit engraved in his bones still allowed him to enjoy the feeling of sleeping at night.

However, it seems that the sleep I had today was a little different.

"Is this... a dream?"

When he opened his eyes, he saw a magnificent hall. Various entertainment facilities appeared in front of Matthew little by little, including chess and card tables, bars, slot machines, and even a huge swimming pool. Each one looked well-dressed. People are enjoying themselves happily here. There are also many women with revealing clothes and sexy figures. Everyone here has a sick smile on their face, as if human beings are intoxicated in the ocean of money and cannot extricate themselves. If it were more vivid, To me, this place is like the golden city of the future.

However, hasn’t the Golden City not appeared yet?Why am I dreaming about this?

Yes, Matthew took it for granted that this was his dream, but what he didn't understand was why he would dream of such a place...

It's quite real, more real than the previous dreams.

Matthew looked at himself in the mirror through a mirror. He was still wearing the clothes he wore before going to bed. Nothing had changed, but it seemed like everything had changed. It was a strange feeling.

Just as Matthew was looking at himself, a high-pitched male voice rang through the speaker in the golden hall.

"Gentlemen and girls, welcome to the carnival night in Vegas Island, this will be your paradise!"

"You are all big guys in the business world. Tonight, this place, Vegas Island, belongs to you! Even the high-ranking Celestial Dragons cannot stop your carnival."

Vegas Island?What is this place?carnival?Business tycoon? ? ?Celestial Dragons? ?What the hell is this?

Matthew looked at the cheering people in front of him in confusion. Suddenly, a woman with heavy makeup hooked his shoulder from behind.

Then a gentle voice came from my ears.

"Sir, you don't seem to be interested in tonight's carnival night? Are we not doing our job well?"

When did my dream become so advanced?Does it also come with interactive operations? ? ? ?

I don’t know about others, but Matthew is always in a single-player state when he dreams, which should be the same for everyone. However, today’s dream really shocked Matthew.

Sight, hearing, touch, smell, and all five senses are given to Matthew. This is the feeling of the real world.

For example, at this moment, Matthew could still ask about the smell of perfume on the woman behind him... It was simply, truly, incredible.

"What is this place?"

When the woman heard Matthew's question, she paused, then smiled and said, "Sir, are you kidding me? This is Vegas Island..."

"Where is Vegas?"

"Ah, this? Vegas is a famous island of business and entertainment. Sir, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere..."

Seeing what the woman wanted to say, Matthew waved his hand to signal her to shut up.

Then Matthew dug into his pocket and found something.

This dream is not simple.

Matthew took out a small piece of gold bar from his pocket and put it on the table in front of him. Facing the woman, he said calmly: "Now, I ask and you answer. Don't talk nonsense to me. Just answer my question accurately." It’s just a problem, once I’m satisfied, it’s yours.”

The woman looked at the gold nuggets on the table, her eyes narrowed into small slits, and she said flatteringly: "It is an honor for us servants to serve distinguished guests. Sir, please see..."

"Snapped!"

Matthew opened the woman's restless hand that wanted to touch the nugget and smiled.

"Your answer must first satisfy me before it can be yours..."
