The tall man with a very high and wide forehead was undoubtedly the world-famous "White Beard" in the original novel, Edward. Newgate.
Although he didn't have the iconic two crescent beards in the original novel, and he was a little shorter than the original novel's plot era, only three to four meters tall, he also had a head of wavy blonde hair that was no longer in the original novel's plot era. However, his high and wide forehead, his strong body, and his calm eyes made Charlotte, a transmigrator, recognize him immediately.
However, at this moment, he looked to be only twenty-four or twenty-five years old. Like Ling Ling, she wasn't very famous in the New World. She seemed to be living on the pirate ship for the time being.
"Who are you?”
A group of pirates had already surrounded Charlotte. One of the pirates questioned loudly.
" I heard that Thunder God West also has the ability to move in the air, and One-Eyed Isaac can also fly in the air," another pirate said." You can't be one of them, right?”
In this era, the New World did not have a Pirate King or the Four Sovereigns. It was said that there were three great pirates who dominated this sea area: Thunder God West, One-Eyed Dragon Isaac, and Dark Emperor Rossi. As for their specific abilities, ordinary people did not know much. Charlotte could only guess that two of them were probably related to the Thunder Fruit and the Dark Fruit. As for the other one, it was unknown.
"Where!" Hearing the pirates 'questions, Xia Luo immediately waved his hand." I'm Xia Luo. I was chased by someone just now, so I had no choice but to run to the sea. I'll borrow your boats to rest for a while. If you can send me to the next island, I'll be even more grateful.”
Although he could brag and say that he was the subordinate of some great pirate, in front of White Beard, it was better not to dig a hole for himself like this. If White Beard heard that he was a subordinate of the great pirate and directly came to challenge him, then this path would probably collapse.
"Are you alone?" Hearing this, a pirate said.
"I guess so!" " I don't know if the one chasing me is one of us or an enemy," Xia Luo said.”
"Who's chasing you?" White Beard asked from the periphery.
“……”
Hearing his words, Charlotte glanced at him.
"Charlotte. Lingling."
"A woman?" Hearing the name he said, everyone was immediately surprised.
"Yes." Charlotte nodded.
" Hahahaha…" Many pirates nearby immediately burst into laughter.
"Hey, hey, you have the ability to be chased by a woman?”
"Little brother, you are too funny."
"What are you afraid of? Go! levy by force| I admire her!"
"Hahahaha…"
The group of people laughed smugly. Only Edward the white-bearded man was laughing. Newgate looked at him with interest.
Charlotte sighed in her heart.
Laugh all you want.
As long as you can live well, perhaps you will soon know how terrifying that woman is.
Everyone laughed for a while. Seeing that Charlotte didn't say anything else, they felt a little bored and soon stopped.
"Brat, your origins are unknown. We can't let you stay on our ship.”the pirate leader said.
"That's right." the other pirates said.
"Well, how about being a little more lenient?”At this moment, the beardless blonde man said," Since he's willing to reveal his ability, he's not deliberately hiding it. In my opinion, he doesn't have any hostility. It's not inconvenient to let him stay for a while and be a trainee. It's also convenient to send him to the next island." If they encountered enemies, they could fight together. Wasn't the ship lacking manpower?”
"Oh? Do you think so, Newgate?" The pirate leader looked at White Beard and said.
"Yes." White Beard said simply.
" Is that so…" The pirate leader pondered for a moment.
Then, his eyes turned as if he had thought of something.
"Fine, Newgate's idea!”The pirate leader said," Anyway, you're the strongest.”
"Thank you very much." said Xia Luo.
Everything was settled. Under White Beard's suggestion, Charlotte became the " temporary combatant " of this pirate group, and the sailboat soon continued to move forward.
The day passed quickly. That night, after dinner, everyone went to bed. Xia Luo specifically asked for a room opposite White Beard, which happened to be empty.
After entering the room, Charlotte thought to herself,"
"Although White Beard is on this ship, this pirate group is clearly not a branch of the White Beard pirate group. Although the pirates on the ship are minor characters, we need to pay more attention to them. As the saying goes, the less capable a person is, the more they like to play dirty. Today, I displayed the ability of Moon Steps. Who knows what they are really thinking?”
"I have no choice. Looks like I have to endure it tonight. When I reach the next island, I'll say goodbye to them.”
After making up her mind, Xia Luo leaned against the door and sat on the ground to avoid falling asleep. She tried her best to resist falling asleep and pay attention to the movements outside.
After a long time, when it was almost midnight, he heard someone whispering outside the door.
"Captain…Newgate…"
"Yes, I am. He didn't even want such a precious treasure. It seemed that he wanted something else.”
"Today, he even took the initiative to keep that brat!”
"It seems that he also wants to build his own confidant group.”
"Then…why did you call the two of us here now to prepare?”
"Tonight is the best opportunity. It just so happened that the unknown brat named Charlotte had arrived on the ship. After the matter was done, it could be said that he was the one who did it.”
"Good!"
"Captain is indeed far-sighted!"
"Don't leave that brat alive, lest any accidents happen. Bargas, when Livers and I succeed, you rush in and knock him out, then drag him to Newgate and kill him.”
"Good!"
The few of them quickly came to a decision.
Inside the door, Xia Luo heard their conversation and smiled coldly.
