Chapter 1317: Cruelty
— It was clearly just a test model, or do you think that such bombs are so easy to create? However, Su Xiao's understatement clearly didn't satisfy Jack. "The Marines obviously dropped her off on the island to check on her. By the way, I have some good news for you. If the Marines hadn't made a breakthrough in their research, they didn't have more than five Wrath of Apollo left in their inventory.».
— Wrath of Apollo?
— Yes, I called it the Wrath of Apollo.
— The Marines still call them that, " Jack said, putting his black cape back on and sitting down in front of the desk.
— Who do you think created the Wrath of Apollo for the Marines? The Wrath of Apollo, Hades, and the Bracket are all my creations. Anger allows you to erase the enemy in the shortest possible time, while Hades slowly destroys everything in its path. I don't recommend using Hades for you. Once this bomb goes off, it will eventually cause the conditional Dress Rose to burn down. As for the Bracket, it's better to forget about this bomb. Besides, I won't be able to explain the operation of this bomb in a short time, "Su Xiao could actually create the Wrath of Apollo and Hades. As for the "Bracket", the name of this bomb he came up with a few seconds ago, and this bomb itself did not exist as such.
In a negotiation with a man like Jack, you couldn't talk about all your trump cards. If Jack finds out everything about him, then eventually the two sides will part on a not-so-good note.
— Burn the island? "Jack seemed interested in Hades. In fact, Jack's motto was something like this: "Wherever I go, there must not grow grass", otherwise it would not have been called "Drought Jack".».
And Hades obviously suited Jack's business very well.
Su Xiao took out a glass tube as thick as his little finger from the inventory. Inside the test tube was a green solution that seemed to burn even in an oxygen-free environment.
— Here are 10 milliliters of Hades solution. If it is not extinguished immediately, which is very difficult to do, the flames will destroy at least half of the huge city.
Su Xiao only took out a portion of the solution needed to create the bomb. Hades itself was created from 140 milliliters of solution. Since this bomb was designed by himself, its final power could be adjusted by himself without much trouble.
After all, Hades wasn't supposed to explode, but only create a flame that would consume anything that could burn or melt. Rocks, steel, and soil could be fuel for Hades.
Jack, on the other hand, was completely confused. He couldn't understand why Su Xiao, who had previously been so cold, suddenly became so outgoing.
Su Xiao wanted to give Jack a taste of some sweetness. If he didn't show how powerful Hades was, Jack wouldn't buy such a bomb.
As for Apollo's Wrath, Jack didn't actually come here to ask Su Xiao why the Marines had Apollo's Wrath, but to buy this very Apollo's Wrath.
Su Xiao had thought that the negotiations would go extremely badly, but to his surprise, Jack was even more of a bad salesman. Although his angry eyes were a bit intimidating, Su Xiao himself wasn't far behind in this regard.
— I'll need the Wrath of Apollo at least fifty grand in the near future.
— Alright, that's raw materials and seventeen swords, with such a large purchase, I'm willing to take on the job for just fifteen swords, " Su Xiao replied and yawned, walking over to the special table and starting to create alchemy bombs.
— Do you really think we can't win this war without your help? Jack's tone was beginning to grow unfriendly. He obviously wanted to use Su Xiao as a free labor force.
Yes, Jack was really strong, but he was an extremely arrogant and reckless pirate.
— Of course not, but I don't have to stay on your side. Shanks and Whitebeard are good choices.
— Jack said, and stood up abruptly.
Su Xiao turned his head and looked at Jack calmly. It was because of this that he decided to join the Quixote family rather than the Beast Pirates. Without Kaido's direct support, becoming a part of the Beast Pirates would either be used by them for the rest of their lives, or be sacrificed for the common good.
Amu slowly walked to the door and closed it, while Bubtney went to the window and began to look around.
If Su Xiao activated the Indoor Demon Hunt Time, he would be able to provide Jack with an unforgettable lesson.
Would Su Xiao dare to kill Jack right now? One of Kaido's men? He'd already killed Cracker, so killing Jack wasn't going to make much of a difference.
*Knock, knock, knock...*
There was a knock on the door. Amu looked at Su Xiao questioningly, wondering if he should have opened the door.
— For a more fruitful cooperation, I can give you a discount of five bombs in exchange for one sword.
— Jack gave a cold snort, stood up, and headed for the door. He was very unhappy that his blackmail didn't achieve the desired success, but he felt that Su Xiao was really willing to fight to the death.
Jack pushed open the door and walked out of the room, and Doflamingo immediately came in. The moment he saw Jack, he immediately understood why he had come here.
— Joker, " Jack said suddenly, causing Doflamingo to pause.
His first thought was that Su Xiao had betrayed him.
— You should have a channel for acquiring famous swords.
Doflamingo was dumbfounded for a moment, and then his pupils, hidden behind his sunglasses, widened.
From what Jack had just said, he seemed to be willing to make an" equal deal " with Su Xiao.
— I need those swords myself.
Jack, hearing this, turned to Doflamingo and inclined his head slightly.
— Getting new ones will be difficult.
— ... — Jack stepped aside in silence, as he realized that Doflamingo wasn't someone he could blackmail, and that added even more pressure to his shoulders.
— Kaido has some urgent business to attend to, and I'll take the fleet out of Dress Rosa for a while, " Jack said, and left the villa without even looking back.
Su Xiao watched Jack's back through the window. There was a smile on his face.
This troublemaker is finally gone.
That's right, in Su Xiao's opinion, Jack was a real troublemaker. Something was wrong with the pirates from the Beast Pirate faction. When both parties could benefit from cooperation, the Beast Pirates would definitely not honor the contract and would go out of their way to blackmail their partners until the situation eventually became critical.
With this attitude, it was only a matter of time before the Beast Pirates were surrounded by enemies.
But come to think of it, apart from Doflamingo, the Pirate beasts had practically no allies, and Doflamingo himself was afraid of Kaido and the Beast pirates even though they were partners.
Doflamingo knew that Kaido was a manic guy. If he doesn't like something and loses his temper, he will arrive at Dress Rosa without much hesitation and destroy the Quixote family with his own hands.
Doflamingo clearly remembered the moment when the artificial Devil Fruit was ready for mass production, Kaido was sitting on the ground and shouting loudly about how the two of them had to work together to create their own small army that would only consist of those with the powers of the Devil Fruit.
But when it came to the cost and sale of these fruits, Kaido's face immediately changed.
Among the Four Emperors, Shanks had the widest network of contacts. He didn't take over anyone else's territory in principle and adhered to the principle of "I won't offend others unless they offend me", so most of the inhabitants of the New World liked to live under the protection of Shanks.
The second was Whitebeard, who had the largest territory under his control. Ordinary people in its territory lived and worked in peace and contentment thanks to Whitebeard's reputation.
Although the Big Mama Pirates had a bad temper, they also had a network of contacts. The "Long-armed" tribe, the "Three-Eyed" tribe, and so on, all of them supported the Big Mama pirates.
Kaido's only ally was Doflamingo, but being his ally always made him feel like he was walking on a knife's edge.
