Chapter 1355: The Difference between Stupid and Clueless
In the Sabaodi Archipelago, on the 70th island, in a slightly shabby hotel.
There was a lot of noise coming from the hotel.
A group of pirates surrounded a middle-aged bald man.
A bald, middle-aged man was talking animatedly, sputtering profusely.
The pirates around him laughed from time to time.
In the Sabaodi Archipelago, pirates were the most common guests. The middle-aged bald man was the owner of this hotel. He was very good at dealing with pirates. Although they were rough and uncouth, they were never stingy.
Soon, the pirates surrounding the middle-aged bald man dispersed, and the delighted smile quickly disappeared from his face.
Chuckling, he turned and headed for the bar.
Compared to these sweaty and smelly pirates, the hotel owner was more worried about the other guest. His hotel was often visited by pirates and lovers to bring a passion for one night, but rarely did they have so many fresh wounds.
In a room on the third floor of the hotel, Su Xiao was sitting on the bed. His upper body was exposed and already almost completely covered in bandages.
— You still haven't told me how you managed to escape from all those contractors, " Little Bun said as she held a bandage in her hand and looked at Su Xiao's body in surprise.
Just an hour ago, she was thinking that Su Xiao was doomed.
— … — Su Xiao took a deep breath. He didn't want to pay attention to the Little Bun just yet. This talkative girl would have ten more questions after he answered just one of them.
— Woof, "Bubtney snapped, clearly wanting to say," What are you thinking? Hurry up and make a move. There are two hundred Paradise coins at stake!»
Although Little Bun didn't understand what Bubtney wanted to say, she could see that this dog didn't mind beating her up because of her slowness.
Under Little Bun's desperate gaze, Bubtney moved the chess piece.
— Little Bun's hands were tugging at her hair, and her face was clearly showing resentment. She lost to the dog, and not just lost, but lost 8 times in a row.
Today it has become poorer by 1,600 Paradise coins.
Sitting on the bed, Su Xiao moved his hands. The pain was gone by now. In less than a day, he will have fully recovered.
The battle with Mask, Lazo, and the loners did not go unnoticed. When the time for the demon hunt came to an end, he almost fainted.
Right now, Su Xiao needed to recover his strength as soon as possible. Fortunately, he still had plenty of time to prepare for his goal.
The contractors who were killed helped Su Xiao gain more reputation as a pirate. Compared to eliminating the pirates in Dress Rose, killing the contractors allowed you to gain a lot more reputation.
After opening the list, Su Xiao heaved a sigh of relief.
[
First place: Byakuya (Rank 3). Number of Pirate Reputation Points: 20 258.
Second place: Duck (rank 5). Number of Pirate Reputation Points: 18 950.
Third place: Kutu (Rank 5). Number of Pirate Reputation Points: 18 875.
Su Xiao was in first place, but Duck and Kutu weren't far behind him, and they had almost the same amount of reputation.
Often, Su Xiao gained a large amount of reputation at once, while the Duck either constantly gained a small amount of reputation, or a lot, but the growth rate of its reputation was stable.
In addition, he always received an average amount of reputation, the number of his points always grew at an average rate.
As for who was currently ranked fourth, he could no longer compete with Su Xiao and the Kutu Duck, as the difference in reputation at the moment was already over 10,000 points.
Although Duck and Kutu had advanced step by step, Su Xiao now had a trump card in his hands. Roger's gun was worth 10,000 pirate reputation points. If necessary, he will use it to deliver a fatal blow to the Duck with Kutu.
Of course, right now, Roger's gun wasn't worth 10,000 pirate reputation points. In order to gain this amount of reputation, he needed to complete a hidden mission, which was to find an appraiser.
The appraiser originally lived on 21 islands, but due to the contractor fights, he could now be anywhere.
The Sabaodi Archipelago wasn't small. It consisted of 79 islands, so it was simply impossible to find one specific person without any clues.
Besides, he didn't even know what the appraiser looked like.
What should have been done in this case? That's right, turn to the local know-it-alls.
Su Xiao needed to find someone who had connections in the Sabaodi Archipelago, someone with their own intelligence network.
There was only one such person in this world.
*Bullet-bullet-bullet...*
A distinctive sound started to come out of Deng Deng Musi's mouth.
After waiting for about half a minute, the other person didn't take the call.
*Ding*
— What's the matter? Doflamingo asked.
— What about the Amu? Su Xiao asked.
— Amu? " Doflamingo, who was in the underground port of Dress Rosa, was stunned, and his pupils narrowed under his sunglasses. "If nothing unexpected happens, he should have arrived at the agreed island by now.
— Really? That's good, I'm not far from the Sabaodi Archipelago.
Hearing Su Xiao's answer, Doflamingo became even more confused. He felt that Su Xiao hadn't contacted him to check on Amu.
— You didn't contact me just for that, right? Doflamingo asked.
— That's right, help me find someone.
— Whom?
— The appraiser.
— From the Marine Corps? Or is he related to the emperors?
— No.
— Disco will contact you in ten minutes.
— Su Xiao answered and hung up the phone. Although they only exchanged a few words, Su Xiao realized that Doflamingo didn't seem to care about the situation in the Sabaodi Archipelago anymore.
This made sense. Doflamingo, who had mastered the technology of producing artificial Devil fruits, no longer saw the point in the business of selling slaves.
The profits of these two industries were simply incomparable.
Moreover, the slave trade was hated and condemned, and the Quixote family suffered countless reprisals because of it.
It was because of this that Doflamingo was willing to get rid of this business so easily. Otherwise, given Doflamingo's personality, he would definitely have asked Su Xiao not to drag Doflamingo's business into the fray.
Half an hour later, a man in a yellow bowler hat was walking unsteadily down the street, accompanied by several men in full armor.
The man with the unsteady gait was Disco. He could hardly be considered Doflamingo's subordinate, as he only helped Doflamingo with the management of the auction house.
Disco was the epitome of cowardice, cunning, and arrogance, but he wasn't without good traits, though he rather had only one good trait — a business sense.
Since he helped Doflamingo run the auction house, Disco was to some extent Doflamingo's representative in the Sabaody Archipelago. With that in mind, it was easy to imagine Disco's attitude towards everyone else, especially since he had been running the auction house for many years.
Disco was walking through the city with his security detail. It was infamous in the Sabaodi Archipelago. He looked down on everyone except the Sky Dragons and the Marines. He looked down on most pirates, even though his immediate boss was originally just an ordinary pirate.
