Chapter 302: The Cowboy!
But this was not the main feature of the Iceberg. Rob Lucci didn't touch him all this time, which meant that the World Government didn't want him dead and decided to keep him at the helm of "Water 7».
Iceberg helped pirates and held a high official position, which allowed him to receive money from two sources at once.
And such a person was good? There was no way Su Xiao would believe this.
In Su Xiao's mind, there was already a plan in which the Iceberg would play a very important role.
Iceberg removed the mask from his eyes and looked at the people who had entered his office.
— Angus, what's the matter?
Angus immediately bowed and put his right hand to his chest. "Mr. Iceberg, this is our new worker Byakuya.
— Oh, " Iceberg said, and leaned back in his chair.
— Byakuya can handle pirates with a bounty of 50 to 100 million belli on their heads..
Iceberg heard this and immediately sat up and looked Su Xiao up and down.
— Byakuya... Iceberg said thoughtfully, then looked at Angus.
Angus hurriedly stepped forward and whispered something in the Iceberg's ear, and it nodded.
Su Xiao calmly stood at the door and considered his plan.
This "Water 7" island had a special location, and given the mission of choosing a faction, everything would be connected to Enies Lobby in the future.
Although it was going to get really hot soon, Su Xiao knew that he would be able to find a lot of good opportunities.
What Su Xiao was most interested in was Soru's Rokushiki technique. He needed to acquire a skill to quickly get close to his enemy.
After a period of silence, Iceberg interrupted Su Xiao's train of thought, " Greetings, Byakuya, I am the president of Halley-La Company, Iceberg.".
— Nice to meet you, " Su Xiao replied and shook his hand.
— I understand your situation, but Halley-La is a ship building and repair company, so if you don't know anything about this area, it will be a little difficult for you... Iceberg said and wondered where he might have assigned Su Xiao.
— Well, why not do it like this... For the next few days, you will be responsible for securing the first dock. We often host pirates there. Although workers can maintain order, each incident affects their efficiency. I've been thinking about hiring a security detail for a long time anyway.
— Good, " Su Xiao said. He just needed to join this faction and didn't care who he ended up becoming.
— Great, then the Halley-La company welcomes you. Angus, help him with the paperwork and come to the party together tonight.
— Yes, Mr. Iceberg.
Angus enthusiastically led Su Xiao out of the office. Along the way, he kept saying what beauties lived in " Water 7».
They soon arrived at the right building and Su Xiao was told to sign a couple of documents.
Su Xiao's pupils narrowed as he read the contents of the documents. This company was actually a subsidiary of the World Government, but it was completely autonomous. The documents stated that it was the royal shipyard of the World Government.
[You have completed the main mission: Choosing a faction.
Do you want to report on your mission??
yes/no.]
Su Xiao immediately decided to report back, and Heaven gave him a new assignment right away.
[Main mission statement: Gain a reputation.
Difficulty Level: Level 9.
Description: Gain a certain reputation in the Halley-La company
Add - on: Current Reputation: Neutral (70/400; Current reputation level allows you to move freely through " Water 7»).
Lead time: 15 days.
Completion Reward: Depends on your reputation level.
Task Failure Penalty: None.]
Now, Su Xiao could move freely within the "Water 7" framework for 15 days and fight powerful characters or search for treasures.
Su Xiao was happy about it. After all, Water 7 Island was a very prosperous place.
Basically, there were three things in this world that almost all people would want: famous swords, Rokushiki, devil fruits.
The probability of obtaining the devil fruit was extremely low, but once one found it, one would be able to become extremely rich.
After making up his mind, Su Xiao and Bubtney decided to take a walk around the island, but on the way out of the building, he bumped into a man.
It was a man of about 30 years old with a cigar in his hands, with a beard and a cowboy hat. A revolver holster was visible on his belt, and his clothes looked very much like those of a typical cowboy.
He was a contractor, and Su Xiao was confident that he was strong.
They froze as they looked at each other.
After a moment, Su Xiao smiled and slowly walked forward.
This contractor looked very experienced and was clearly ready for battle. As soon as their eyes met, he immediately put his hand on the revolver and slowly began to step back.
This scene caught the attention of the workers.
The cowboy backed away from the passageway and Su Xiao walked out of the building and left without saying a word.
----
Su Xiao walked quickly through the streets and looked around as if he was looking for something.
Soon, Su Xiao arrived at an abandoned shipyard that was previously used to house old ships, but now this shipyard has turned into a ship graveyard.
— Come out, " Su Xiao said and pulled out the dragon flash.
A figure came out from behind the house. It was a cowboy.
— And why did you follow me?
He started following him right after Su Xiao left.
In the end, Su Xiao chose such a place as a battlefield.
Dodging battles wasn't his style.
— Did you kill Carl?" Cowboy asked, and Su Xiao frowned.
«Karl? Ah, from the Ghost Brigade!»
Looking at the cowboy again, Su Xiao took a closer look at his revolver, then suddenly remembered Carl's words about the crazy man with the number seven revolver.
The cowboy in front of him was probably the man Carl was talking about.
Thinking about this, Su Xiao's heart sank. Carl was already very strong, and this man was clearly much stronger than him.
— Dare you answer me or not?" Although we are not comrades, every time one of us dies, we will know about it, " the cowboy said and looked at Su Xiao without any hatred or anger.
— If you're talking about someone who liked tarot cards, then yes, I did.".
