"Is Tiki's hometown Winter Island?"
If this was Teach's hometown, why did the Blackbeard Pirates destroy the Drum Kingdom in the first place?
Was Blackbeard's body structure related to his two sisters or this country?
"What is the truth behind this?”
Seeing that night was approaching, Igor, who was surrounded by doubts, mechanically gathered the wood he needed and started a bonfire.
The shocking discovery led to more secrets, and Igor fell asleep with a long thought.
On the third day, Igor had just returned from hunting on the snowy mountain when he saw the king's guards surrounding the ruins.
Seeing that the leader was Dalton, Igor thought for a while and walked straight to the guards.
"You are…The person who assassinated the king!"
"Stay where you are!"
"State your name!"
Three days ago, Igor had killed dozens of guards in an instant in the hall. His terrifying strength had left a shadow in everyone's hearts.
When a few people saw Igor, fear and alertness quickly spread throughout the entire patrol team. Everyone raised their guns and pointed at Igor.
"Put down your guns!"
Seeing that the soldiers were about to pull the trigger, Dalton shouted and ordered everyone to put away their weapons to show their friendliness.
Seeing Dalton in the middle, Igor faced the crowd without moving, waiting for his next move with confidence.
"You guys continue patrolling. Leave this to me!”
As Igor had expected, Dalton immediately ordered the soldiers to leave the scene and make space for him to talk to him in private.
"But, captain…"
"Obey my orders!"
After witnessing the scene in the castle, the soldiers were worried that Dalton would be in danger. However, they were ordered to leave the scene halfway through their words.
The soldiers looked at the tall figure of the captain and shook their heads helplessly. They regrouped and continued to patrol the mountain.
Seeing the guards disappear from their sight, Igor was the first to start a conversation.
"Tell me why you saved me, Dalton.”
Hearing the other party call his name directly and go straight to the point, Dalton was first shocked, then he showed admiration.
"You are indeed remarkable. You are the person I have been waiting for.”
Seeing Igor's honesty, Dalton knew that Igor had already seen through his intentions, so he did not beat around the bush.
"The people of the Drum Nation have been living in misery for too long. I hope to use your strength to overthrow the tyranny of Walpole.”
As the country's guardian, he suffered from the dictator's strength and endured for many years. The other party seemed to regard Igor as his savior.
"Hahaha, you mean the people? Guard Captain, you're still not sincere enough.”
Upon hearing Dalton's passionate confession, Igor seemed to have heard a joke. He leaned closer and looked directly into his eyes.
"Don't you want to be the next king?”
When their eyes met, Dalton felt as if he was standing naked in front of the other party. His eyes seemed to be able to see into the depths of his heart.
The selfishness in his words made Dalton blush and fall into a long silence.
"We can work together, but you have to answer me honestly.”
Seeing that Dalton was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do, Igor smiled and generously made his request.
"Tell me about the ruins under my feet.”
The sudden question stumped Dalton. He was familiar with every corner of Winter Island, which had long been in ruins before he took office.
However, in order to get rid of Vaper and become the new king, Dalton would do everything he could to facilitate cooperation. He thought for a moment and said.
"Yes... Someone must know the answer."
After agreeing to Igor's request, Dalton led him through the foothills and arrived at a house hidden in the woods.
Pushing open the door, the 138-year-old Demoness Dr. Kureha and his assistant Choba were grinding herbs and concocting potions.
"Don't panic, Doctor Doria. This young man is willing to help us chase Vaper away, but he has some questions for you.”
As soon as the two entered the room, Kureha subconsciously picked up his twin blades. Marton hurriedly stood in the middle and explained, then introduced them to Igor.
"Doctor Dorier is the only survivor of the law of killing doctors. I have been secretly protecting her.”
Seeing the confusion on Igor's face, Dalton tried to make it short and tell him the reason for his trip as soon as possible.
"She has witnessed the changes of this country and knows countless secrets that no one knows. She must know what you want to ask!”
After his speech, Igor walked past Marton and walked towards Kureha, looking at the hale and hearty old man in front of him.
"Kuleha, tell me about the Marshall family in the village at the foot of the mountain.”
A hint of surprise flashed in Kuleha's eyes. He tried to calm down, but his brows still furrowed.
"Time is precious. I hope you can tell me the truth.”
Igor had spent a lot more time than he had expected since he set off for the Drum Kingdom and was finally close to the truth.
He no longer had any attachment to the world of pirates. He wanted to destroy everything as quickly as possible, but his tone was still extremely polite.
"Hmph, I'm not as stubborn as Marton.”
Whether it was in the manga or the modern world, Kuleha had always been an old man with a sharp tongue but a soft heart.
Although he was kind-hearted, perhaps because he had seen too much of the past, his stubborn temper always made people keep a respectful distance from him.
"Why should I tell you? Just because you said you can help us chase Vaper away?”
Before the other party could even reply, Kuleha suddenly shivered.
Igor's expression could not be seen. His eyes were hidden in the shadows, but his sinister killing intent instantly filled the entire room.
