Chapter 135 What do you have to refute?
...
Facing this group of terrorists, Kit felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart, but he still stood in front of Cobra without taking a step back.
He couldn't beat him, and he couldn't run away either. He could only condemn the other party morally. Kit shouted at Gol at the top of his lungs:
"You're such a vicious liar! You let me go just to follow me, didn't you? You said you weren't interested in ruling this country just to paralyze me, didn't you?"
"In fact, your goal has always been Alabasta! I am really old and confused. How can I believe that there are people who are not interested in becoming the ruler of a country? But even if you kill the Nefertari royal family, the millions of people in Alabasta will never submit to your rule!"
Before Gel could even open his mouth, he was bombarded with criticism, and was stunned.
Then he understood that the old man in front of him must have been made overly sensitive by himself and Moria today. He must have made up a lot of conspiracies and tricks in his mind, and finally successfully misunderstood his intentions and scared himself.
Gel smiled, trying to appear friendly, and spoke in a kind tone:
"Well, I didn't expect to meet you guys again so soon. Also, don't get so excited, uncle. We just want to ask for directions. We don't have any other ideas. Look how scared you are."
"What? Asking for directions?" x3
The three of them were stunned by Gel's words, especially Gaka, who was buried in the ground with only his head left and shouted the loudest.
Why did he need to bury the person like this to ask? He had completely forgotten that he was the one who launched the attack first.
"What else? You think I really want to see you?"
Gel spread his hands helplessly and glanced at the three people with disgust.
Kit was speechless for a moment.
He didn't understand how someone could have such a bad character. He had never seen such a bad character in his life. Every time someone joked with him, he almost had a heart attack.
"Two of our companions were kidnapped by moving crabs. I was looking for them and happened to run into you, so I thought I'd come over to ask you locals if you know where these damn moving crabs usually appear?"
Seeing that Gel really didn't seem to be here to rob and kill them, Cobra breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"I wonder if you could let us go first? We promise that we will never run away or do anything irrational."
Cobra was hit by Moria's shadow-immobilization spell, and he couldn't even raise his head. In order to see clearly what the person standing above Lab's head looked like, he could only move his black eyeballs upwards.
Seeing that he was talking to him with his eyes rolled, Gel felt uncomfortable, so he asked Moria and Lab to let them go.
Lab turned the sand that trapped Jakka back into liquid form, then flicked his tail lightly, and a wave of sand washed him ashore.
Jakka rolled several times in the sand before he stopped. He quickly got up from the ground, leaned behind Kit with a sword in his hand, his expression serious, not daring to let his guard down at all.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine Master Kit!"
At this moment, facing the concern of his senior, Jiaka felt his face burning and he lowered his head in shame.
During the day today, he still couldn't imagine what kind of power could beat Lord Kit without any chance of fighting back. Deep down in his heart, he even had some doubts about the current strength of this old senior.
I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to experience it so soon, but in the end, I couldn't even defeat one of the enemy's mounts, let alone fight them! What a shame!
Moria smiled, stretched out his right hand and snapped his fingers. The dart on the ground turned into a small bat, flapping its wings and flew back to his shadow.
Gel nodded secretly. This guy is really using the ability of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit to get more and more fancy.
As the shadow dart was recalled, Cobra suddenly felt that the power that was restraining him disappeared.
He first flexed his hands, then raised his head and looked at the boy on the back of the whale under the bright moonlight.
He is still the same as when I saw him in the hotel today, sunny and handsome.
But after knowing the other person's identity and what he did, when I saw him again, I felt that this person had a bit more of an arrogant and unrestrained attitude, and was not interested in the powerful.
"Sir, as far as I know, the place where the moving crabs like to stay most is the place with piles of rocks in the desert. They usually hide in the sand and are rarely seen, so the people of Alabasta call them creatures of dreams. They are gentle in temperament. Although they are carnivorous, they have rarely hurt people. I guess it is very likely that it was just playing a prank with your friends, and maybe it has already sent them back."
Gel thought about it and felt that this was indeed possible, otherwise it would not make sense for him to not find it after searching such a large area.
"Okay, thank you very much. I won't bother you any more. By the way, uncle, you are already so old, please take care of yourself, try not to overthink things, and don't scare yourself all the time. Bye, all three of you."
"Your Excellency! Please stay!"
After Gel finished speaking, he was about to ask Lab to go back to the pile of rocks near Eruma to look for it again, but Cobra called him urgently.
"Hmm? Do you have anything else?"
Ger turned his head and looked down at him and asked.
"I want to ask, Your Excellency, how do you know me? It seems that we have never met before today? Why do you seem to be very familiar with me and let the old man bring back such words? It doesn't matter if Your Excellency is not convenient to answer this question. I just want to know why Your Excellency is so pessimistic about me and thinks that I will be a king who loses his country?"
Cobra blurted out all the questions that had puzzled him for a long time.
Gel did not directly answer Cobra's question, but suddenly said very seriously and formally:
"Your Highness Cobra, I heard everything from you before, which was one-sided. Seeing you today has changed my mind. I was disrespectful and spoke outrageously before, so please forgive me."
"In fact, I really like the simple and kind people and the beautiful and enthusiastic girls in Alabasta, so I want to stay in this country to help you. We have a strong military force that can help this country resist foreign invasion. All you need is for you to appoint me as an official and pay me a salary on time every month. Of course, it would be even better if you could reward me with a small piece of territory and some treasures and beauties."
Except for Weeble, everyone present was shocked by Gel's sudden "application to join the partnership."
Seeing the sincerity in Boss Gel's eyes, even Moria almost believed it, but he quickly reacted and a smile appeared on his face.
Lord Gel must be fooling people again. He doesn't even look down on being a king. How could Lord Gel, who is a wealthy man himself, want to stay and be a small lord?
"Really? If you are willing to stay and help us protect Alabasta, that would be great! I will definitely recommend you to my father. Just treat the previous words as a misunderstanding. I don't take it to heart at all, and you don't have to take it to heart either."
Although Cobra was still a little confused, if there really was such a strong man willing to stay and take charge, Alabasta would not have to worry about being robbed by pirates! Not to mention some small rewards, it would be no problem for Gol to be a general to protect the country. When he thought of this, his tone began to become a little excited.
Even Kit, who had been poisoned many times, did not think there was anything wrong, especially when he saw Ger's sincere eyes, he also imagined that if this was true...
Unexpectedly, the next second, the corners of Gel's mouth curled up, and the sincere expression instantly became full of teasing and sarcasm.
"Look, am I wrong to say you're stupid? Do you have anything to refute?"
"Ah, this..."
"Let's go, Rab!"
Gel didn't say anything more. There are some things that you can't save him unless he figured them out himself. As the saying goes, it's hard to change one's nature. Anyway, it has nothing to do with him, so Gel didn't want to waste any more time.
Until the whale disappeared into the night, Cobra and the other two were still standing there in a daze.
