On the streets of the central city of the Goa Kingdom.
"Master, what's so special about that child? Why are you staring at him?”Number 28 asked curiously.
"They are stealing." Ye Chen said calmly.
In front of them, a blond child wearing a black hat with windproof glasses and a child with pockmarks on his face were working together to steal a noble's money bag.
The two of them were very calm. It was obvious that they were repeat offenders.
"The Goa Kingdom is a symbol of peace, but the poor people outside the central city are also living a hard life.”Makino sighed, as if complaining about the unfairness of the world.
"Things are not that simple." Ye Chen smiled faintly.
"You know him?" Makino asked with a frown.
"We'll talk about this later. Let's watch the performance of these two kids first.”Ye Chen chuckled.
At this moment, the two little ghosts had already begun to move. The golden-haired boy wearing a black hat took the initiative to approach the target.
Number 28 replied," Yeah, that blond kid seems to recognize that noble young master. He's talking to him on purpose.”
" Err... is that so? Acquaintance?"”
"Interesting." Ye Chen smiled faintly.”
Just as the pockmarked child succeeded and stole the money bag, he turned around and ran into a patrolling guard on the street. The money bag fell out.
"Have some eyes." The guard said ferociously. However, seeing that the other party was only a child, he did not make a fuss. He patted his clothes and turned around to leave.
The pockmarked child hurriedly nodded to express his respect. In fact, he was already extremely flustered in his heart.
Coincidentally, the noble young master turned around and saw this scene.
"Hmm? That purse looks familiar." The noble young master scratched the back of his head with a confused expression.
Being stared at by the person in question, the pockmarked brat's psychological defense collapsed at once. He was so frightened that he hurriedly fled.
The noble young master turned around and saw that the blond child had disappeared. He immediately understood that the two little ghosts were in cahoots. He quickly shouted,"Chase after him and catch that kid.”
Under the command of the noble young master, the patrolling guard Er Hu Bushuo immediately gave chase and shuttled through the lively crowd.
Although the patrolling guards had received strict training, they were not as agile as Ace. After a period of chasing, the entire street was a mess, forming a farce.
"Little brat, stop! Don't run!" The guard chased and shouted, attracting the attention of all the passers-by.
Seeing this situation, the noble young master and the guard captain were exasperated. They did not know whether to complain about the guards 'stupidity or that this pockmarked child was too clever.
Just as the patrolling guards were about to give up on the pursuit, they were at a loss.
At this moment, the navy soldiers who were maintaining order in the city rushed over. The leader was Captain Smog of Roguetown.
Seeing the commotion on the street, Smogg quickly stopped the farce. He rushed into the crowd and caught Ace in a few moves. Then, he ordered his subordinates to tie Ace up.
The reason why Smoggy was here was entirely because of Ye Chen. The navy stationed ten thousand elite soldiers in the Gea Kingdom under the command of the navy general Qing Zhi to deter the great pirates who kept coming.
Otherwise, the soldiers of the Goa Kingdom would not be able to catch Ace. Even if Ace was only seven years old, some pirates with bounties could not defeat them.
"Let me go. If you have the ability, let me down and fight with me.”Ace gritted his teeth and said. He was still struggling desperately as he spoke, trying to break free from Smoggy's hand.
"Little brat, you better save your strength and prepare to be beaten up.”Smogue said with a cold expression.
Seeing his brother being captured, Sabot could only hide in the dark. He wanted to help, but he was afraid that he would be captured and sent back to his father's house. He couldn't go out to sea anymore. He was very conflicted.
At this moment, Ye Chen walked out from the crowd and said calmly,"Let him go."
Captain Smogg was shocked. He did not expect to meet Ye Chen here. He quickly bowed and said,"Lord Ye Chen."
He respected Ye Chen very much because Ye Chen was someone the Marshal had personally ordered not to offend. He had also instructed Smogue to try his best to satisfy Ye Chen's needs.
"Men, release that brat.”Smogue did not even think and directly ordered Ace to be released.
However, if he knew that he had let the son of the Pirate King go, he would probably regret it in the future.
……
After that, Ye Chen did not stay and left with Ace. He did not pay any attention to Smog, who was present. He did not even greet him and left directly.
"Come out, this place is safe.”
Ye Chen called Sabot, who had been following him, out and said,"Why did you steal the money?"
"Why should I tell you?" Ace said righteously.
"If you don't tell me, I'll take you to Karp.”Ye Chen smiled.
Hearing that, Ace and Sabot were terrified. They felt terrible when they thought of that weird old man. If Karp knew about this, he would definitely be beaten up.
Under pressure, Sabot said the truth with a burning gaze,""We originally wanted to save up money to build a ship so that we could go out to sea as pirates in the future. However, ever since the appearance of the treasure merchant, our thoughts have changed. Now, we want to auction off a treasure map. Perhaps we can dig out a lot of magical treasures, haha.”
While talking, Sabot's mind was full of the adventure of treasure hunting and exploring the ancient civilization. He laughed foolishly.
Ye Chen's expression turned a little strange when he heard this. He did not expect that the two children who wanted to be Pirate Kings would abandon the pirate ship and only want to dig up treasures.
However, if Roger's son was tricked into becoming a cripple, it seemed to be a good thing.
If one day, the three Ace brothers went out to sea and shouted in unison," I'm definitely going to be the Treasure King!
It was interesting just thinking about it!
"What are you laughing at? Who are you?”Sabot and Ace frowned.
"I'm laughing. You guys are lucky to have met me.”Ye Chen deliberately concealed the joy in his heart and said sternly.
"Good luck?" Ace scratched the back of his head and said in confusion.
"Why do you say we're lucky?" Sabot frowned.
" Because I am a treasure merchant." Ye Chen said calmly.
