Chapter 146 They are waiting for you
"Sol shot the Hailou stone bullet at my feet in order to make me accept the 'relic' and try to escape from the predicament."
"I knew the situation at the time, and I knew better which option was the most correct, but..."
The memories of that day are still vivid in my mind.
That was the closest to death after Maud came to the world of One Piece.
"In that case, if I turn around and run away, even if I am lucky enough to escape, I may never let it go for the rest of my life."
"And choosing to pull the trigger means that I'm betting my only remaining 'life' on this gun."
"At that time, I didn't think about the consequences at all."
"Just thinking...Sunny is already in a safe place, so I don't have to worry about it."
"Even so, the 'domineering' that I had at the time could only be wrapped and covered, and there was still an unattainable distance from 'release'."
"Fortunately, the old gun that Jesus gave me didn't let me down."
"Under the guidance of the old gun, I successfully shot that shot."
"Actually, my thoughts at the time were more... I wanted to shoot Garp."
At Xia Qi's request, Maud briefly reviewed the situation at that time with a narration. When he came to this point, his face showed a self-deprecating color.
"Now that I think about it, it's so naive."
"Shoot Garp..."
Xia Qi pursed his lips and smiled, snuffing out the cigarette that was about to burn to the end in the ashtray.
Having personally experienced the two great eras before and after, she doesn't think this kind of idea is naive.
On this sea full of thrills, the will to carry it through to the end is sometimes more important than a strong body.
"Ha ha."
Rayleigh laughed unobtrusively, raised his hand to pick up the wine bottle, poured the wine for Maud, and asked casually, "Then how aggressive are you now?"
"It's not good, it's not top-notch, but it's not far behind.
At least, the winding release has no problem. "
"amazing."
Rayleigh looked at the budding junior next to him, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, one by one feeling that the back waves had hit the beach.
Maud smiled humbly.
Aside, Brook looked at his captain.
"Domineering, Jaya and Lafayette will too, and I don't even know what that is..."
Brooke's gaze fell, glanced at the saber, and muttered silently in his heart.
In order not to hold back, you must master an advanced skill called domineering as soon as possible.
Brooke made up his mind.
After listening to Maud's personal story, Reilly started asking about the old guys.
Reilly nearly fell off his chair laughing after Jaya talked about the Jabba being bald in old age.
"In the past, that guy attached great importance to hair, and sometimes he would laugh at me for having too little 'hair volume' and not being handsome enough. I didn't expect him to have no hair left, haha..."
Riley laughed until tears burst out.
Xia Qi glanced at Rayleigh, who was so happy, and lit another cigarette after being silent.
Old guys like them who have reached their age, once they touch on the past, are naturally more willing to enjoy the joy, rather than mourning that the time will never return.
It's just that Shaqi hasn't seen Rayleigh so happy for many years.
However, she could understand Rayleigh's mood.
Most likely, just seeing Maud and Jaya is enough to make Rayleigh's mind roll over the beautiful images of the past in the passionate years.
Thinking of this, Xia Qi smiled and raised his fingers to shake the soot.
When everyone was chatting about the same, Xia Qi suddenly said: "Maud, you came to the Chambord Islands not to enter the new world, right?"
"Um."
Maud nodded.
Xia Qi smiled and asked, "Is it for the position of Qiwuhai?"
Maud looked up at Xia Qi, the surprise in his eyes was fleeting.
He didn't intend to cover up the matter, but he didn't expect Xia Qi to guess it.
Xia Qi keenly captured Maud's fleeting surprise, and knew that his guess obtained through a lot of information was correct.
Rayleigh looked at Maud with some surprise. He obviously didn't know that Maud came to the Chambord Islands this time for the position of Qiwuhai.
Being watched by the two seniors, Maud admitted generously: "Yes, I did not attack Moria for fame, but to directly replace Moria's Qiwuhai position."
Xia Qi chuckled, and did not further inquire about Mo De's motives for wanting to become Qiwuhai. At the same time, he also determined that it would be a matter of time before Mo De succeeded as Qiwuhai.
Because the act of personally taking down Moriah is itself a ticket with the highest priority to the position of Shichibukai.
It is also one of the important reasons for her to speculate that Maude wants to become Qiwuhai.
"Maud, before you take over the position of Qiwuhai, you need to solve some small troubles on the island first."
"for example?"
Maud looked at Shaqi curiously.
Xia Qi let out a breath of smoke and said with a smile: "Besides you and Lafayette, seven other supernovas with a reward of over 100 million this year are also on the Chambord Islands."
"They actually arrived a while earlier than you, but after they finished coating the ship, they didn't go to Fishman Island immediately, but chose to stay on the island. Do you know why?"
Maud shook his head.
Xia Qi smiled even more, and said seriously: "Because, they are waiting for you."
"Waiting for me specifically?"
Maud was quite surprised.
Before Xia Qi mentioned this, he hadn't paid attention to other supernovae at all, how could he have thought that other supernovae would stay in the Chambord Islands to wait for him.
Xia Qi nodded and explained: "A newcomer who can become a supernova will not be an easy person, and you are also a supernova, and the limelight will naturally attract their jealousy."
"That's okay too?"
Maud is drunk.
Xia Qi smiled and said, "They are always in the limelight, and you are always in the limelight. It's not surprising that this is the case. They must have regarded you as a stepping stone."
"yes……"
Maud's eyes were strange, and he pinched his chin, but suddenly laughed.
"Aunt Xia, do you have detailed information on those guys?"
"Of course there is."
Xia Qi is a leader among intelligence officers, and since she retired, she has been paying attention to the newcomers over the years, and she has easy access to their intelligence.
When Maud heard this, he laughed even more happily.
"Can you sell me that information?"
"..."
Shaqi looked at Maud in surprise.
I didn't expect that Maud would want this information.
She smiled and shook her head: "Don't be silly, I won't accept money from the lovely younger generation. You can take this information directly if you want."
"Then I'm welcome."
Maud smiled.
.........
Clothing store at Tree Isle 47, Shambord Islands.
Cavendish is trying on a classy, aristocratic outfit.
He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror in the store, narcissistically looking at his handsome self in the mirror.
On the side, the female shopping guides and even the women in the store who came towards Cavendish were all red-eyed, immersed in Cavendish's handsome appearance and unable to extricate themselves.
Just then, a man rushed into the store.
"Captain, here comes Maud!"
"Um?"
Cavendish's expression changed slightly, and his eyes became sharp in vain.
"Pay."
After throwing a sentence to his subordinates, Cavendish emerged from the pile of women like the wind and disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant.
The subordinate stared blankly at his own captain who disappeared without a trace, and said with a dull expression, "I haven't said where it is yet..."
at the same time.
The supernovas in the Chambord Archipelago learned of the news of Maude's arrival on the island.
"It's coming...!"
They've been waiting impatiently.
