One Piece: Under the Throne

Chapter 118 The Destitute "Golden Emperor"

The scenery became even more beautiful after we set foot on Shampoodi. The island surrounded by Alman mangroves and colorful bubbles stunned everyone.

Victoria: "Is this a fairy tale world? The scenes in the book have become reality."

Just as Gloria was about to rush out, Leo grabbed her by the scruff of the neck and said, "Let me go, let me go. There's something delicious over there."

She had a keen nose, and she looked in the direction where the rainbow, a specialty of Shampoo, was. So they each had one, eating and playing.

The pirate ship, roller coaster, and horror house were all fun until night. Chambord Park was even more dreamy at night. When the Ferris wheel reached the highest point, everyone felt that it was great to go out to sea with this group of friends.

Everyone ended the trip to Chambord Park with laughter and chatter, and on the way back everyone was still reminiscing about the wonderful day.

Suddenly, a ragged young man rushed out from the alley next to him. He seemed to be running away. He knocked over several trash cans on the roadside in a panic. He had not run a few steps past everyone when he was shot in the calf and fell to the ground screaming.

"Asshole, you dare to run away, wait and see how the boss treats you when you go back."

"What are you looking at? Mind your own business." A man with a ferocious face scanned the pedestrians around him with a fierce look. When he saw Victoria and Gloria, his eyes lit up obviously. But his hidden gaze did not escape the perception of Leo and the others.

Gloria said with an unhappy look on her face: "Leo, the way that guy looks at us is so disgusting, should we teach him a lesson?"

Leo also had a look of disgust on his face: "Don't worry, they are a group of human traffickers, wait until there is no one around and then kill them."

The two traffickers carried the fleeing young man and quickly left the scene, and Leo was watching their every move.

The other party was leading the young man in twists and turns in the alley, and no one knew where they were going. But as soon as they turned the corner, their way was blocked by a tall figure.

Due to the dim light, the tall man was still standing in the shadows. One of the traffickers vigilantly pulled out his gun, and another trafficker started shouting.

“Friends, please make way. We are…” The human trafficker was hit in the shoulder by the oncoming water ball before he could finish his words. The human trafficker fell to the side of the road wailing, holding his bloody arm. His companions immediately opened fire, but the black shadow blocked all the bullets with one hand.

There was a flash of a knife in the darkness, and the human trafficker who fired the shot did not even have time to beg for mercy before he followed in the footsteps of his companions.

The captured young man staggered and sat down against the wall. At that moment, two human traffickers died in front of him. The young man knew that he was saved by a strong man, so he began to plead.

"Please... please save Stella, I... am willing to exchange everything I have for her." The young man spoke in a halting manner. His injuries were too severe. He barely expressed his meaning and looked dying.

Leo walked up to the young man and squatted down, making his eyes level with his own. Leo had not originally planned to show up, but the young man's face flashed under the street light just now, which made him change his mind. This is also a plot character.

Leo smiled, trying to appear kind, but the young man had dead eyes and didn't even look at him.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment...

Seeing that the other party seemed unable to speak, Leo had no choice but to speak first: "Hey! Are you okay? The trafficker is dead. You are free. Go home quickly."

The young man forced himself to open his eyes and glanced at Leo. When he heard the other party's advice to go home, tears immediately flowed out.

"Home? Where is my home? Why did you save me? It's too hard to live, my Stella..."

Leo's eyebrows twitched. Tesoro is now quite admirable. At least for the sake of love, he is a guy who dares to pull out a gun at the Celestial Dragons.

Leo handed him a handkerchief and watched Tesoro in pain for a while. He pretended not to know him and comforted him: "You are still young, don't give up hope. Is there anything I can do to help you?"

Tezulo smiled bitterly: "Forget it, you are all good people, don't cause trouble for a stranger like me."

Leo thought, this guy is really good at playing the victim. If he is really a young man with a strong sense of justice, he might agree to help you on impulse. However, Leo did intend to help him, but not to help him save his lover, but to use him to cause some trouble to the Celestial Dragons.

"Hahaha, my name is Leo, as you can see we are pretty strong, tell me about your troubles."

"Wow, thank you! My name is Tezoro. My wife and I were caught by human traffickers and sent to an auction. My wife Stella is a famous singer. She was bought by a noble. Wow, my Stella."

Leo also wiped his eyes to wipe away the non-existent tears: "Brother, you really have a hard life. I will help you save people."

Tezulo's eyes seemed to be rekindled with hope: "Really? Thank you so much, the gang is still at the auction house, but how are you going to save them? The slaves will be collared."

Leo frowned and pretended to think: "A slave collar, I heard that thing will explode if it is far away from the key. It's really troublesome, but it's not a problem for me."

After saying that, Leo fumbled around on his body for a while before handing a metal cube to Tezulo, who took it with a confused look on his face.

"This is softened metal. It will soften when exposed to hot water. It will set into shape when cooled. Insert the softened metal into the keyhole of the slave's collar. It will open in about 5 minutes."

Tezulo looked at the gadget in his hand in surprise: "Great, Stella is saved, but I can't sneak into the auction house by myself, Leo, can you help me?"

Leo readily agreed to his request and made a plan to rescue people by making a feint to the east and attacking in the west.

Tesoro said sorry in his heart. For the sake of his beloved, he had no choice but to suffer. What he said just now was true, but not complete. He only said that the noble bought his wife and concealed the noble's identity as a Celestial Dragon.

But Tesoro didn't know that he had met a time traveler. His deeds had already been known to all One Piece fans in his previous life. Seeing Tesoro's poor performance, Leo had been cooperating with him. What Leo said just now was the truth. He promised to help her save people, but not at the auction house.

Fisher Tiger is now working hard to become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Without this fish-man hero who climbed up to the Red Earth Continent with his bare hands to rescue the slaves, those people would have lost their original way of survival. Leo remembered that the three Hancock sisters were among the rescued slaves.

So Tesoro was chosen. Poor Tesoro didn't know that the trajectory of his life had not changed much. His life or death depended on his luck. If he succeeded, he would be the hero who liberated the slaves.
