Chapter 254 Prom
The North Sea is a sea of endless wars. I don’t know when the cloud of war has shrouded this sea area all the year round. It seems to have become a law that there will be a small fight every three years and a big fight every ten years.
Blackthorn Island, a small island, is famous for producing a kind of blackthorn wood suitable for shipbuilding. Although it is nominally the territory of the Mini Kingdom, the Blackthorn Flower Chamber of Commerce is the real ruler here.
Here, the Blackthorn Chamber of Commerce not only vigorously developed the barren areas on the island, replanted blackthorn saplings, but also spent a lot of money to build a small city on the island.
Although this city does not exclude outsiders from living, its main purpose is to accommodate family members, relatives, friends, etc. of members of the chamber of commerce. Restraints, so that they dare not easily betray the chamber of commerce.
After returning to Blackthorn Island, Sean lived in a small manor under Norbert's name.
"My lord, Yade Song, the president of the Blackthorn Chamber of Commerce, asked me about you today. I said you are my friend. Tonight, the Blackthorn Chamber of Commerce will have a grand annual ball. Most of the senior officials of the Blackthorn Chamber of Commerce will Participate, and he invites you to come too."
With his head down, Norbert reported to Sean what happened before.
"Well, I see, I just plan to find a chance to get in touch with this president."
Closing his eyes, lying on the deck chair, Sean enjoyed the sunbathing, and he found that the power of the Shining Fruit was a little more active in such an environment.
Sean is not surprised that the president of the Black Thorn Flower Chamber of Commerce, Yardson, knows about him. As the leader of the Black Thorn Flower Chamber of Commerce, there must be his cronies in the fleet led by Benoit. And there's more than one.
"Annual ball? This is a good opportunity."
Thoughts were spinning in his mind, and the corner of Sean's mouth outlined a beautiful arc.
Through Benoit before, Sean already had a fairly clear understanding of the Black Thorn Flower Chamber of Commerce. Originally, he planned to spend a little time to infiltrate and control the Black Thorn Flower Chamber of Commerce, but now he has a chance to wipe it all out. This is also a good choice.
In order to carry out the follow-up plan, Xiao En of the Black Thorn Flower Chamber of Commerce will definitely find a way to control it in his own hands, and what is indispensable for cultivation is resources.
The night came as expected, but today Blackthorn Island is an island that never sleeps.
The lights are bright, and the beautiful girls are wearing cool clothes showing proud dancing postures. The people coming and going are wearing decent clothes, holding wine glasses and talking to each other, like gentlemen one by one. Is it the annual ball of a dark chamber of commerce?
"Everyone,
Today is another day of reunion. Here I would like to thank everyone for their contributions to the Blackthorn Chamber of Commerce. Please enjoy it. "
After a short break in the dance, Yade Song, the president of the Black Thorn Flower Chamber of Commerce, stepped onto the stage and said a few words, which drew applause from the audience.
Looking at the figure on the stage, there was a strange color in Xiao En's dark eyes. According to the news he had received, Yadson himself was just an ordinary person, and he could develop the Black Thorn Flower Chamber of Commerce from a small chamber of commerce. Up to the current scale, the biggest hole card should be the rumored swordsman from Wano country, but now it seems that the accuracy of this information is still open to question, because Yade Song is not an ordinary person, he is a devil fruit Capable person, and not just an ordinary devil fruit, animal type, ancient species, iron claw eagle form, a rare devil fruit that can fly.
"It's really interesting."
Withdrawing his gaze, he didn't know what to think of, and a smile was drawn on the corner of Sean's mouth.
This time to the dance, Sean only brought Catherine alone as his dance partner, while Monka and Yoder were left outside by him.
Time passed, and when the dance was in the second half, Norbert brought Yardson to Sean.
"You are Mr. Xiao En, nice to meet you, nice to meet you."
Yardson looked at Xiao En's young and excessive face, with a gentle smile on his face, which made people feel refreshed, not at all like a businessman who hangs out on the dark side.
Out of his habit, Sean didn't use Myers' name, but his real name. Today, only a few people in Monka occasionally call him Myers.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Yardson,"
With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Sean and Yadson had a short look at each other.
During this process, Yadson's body stiffened for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal.
Aside from the truth behind the scenes, Yadesong is a very charismatic person on the surface. Although he is nearly 50 years old and graying colors have appeared in his black hair, Yadesong cleans himself up very well. , people can't feel the slightest twilight, only a kind of graceful demeanor, and they have a way of handling people and things, so that people won't feel any discomfort. After getting along for a while, on the surface, Sean and Yade Song get along well very good.
"Did it really fail?"
Seeing the back of Yadson and his group leaving, the smile on Xiao En's face gradually faded. He tried to hypnotize Yadson in the process just now, but failed.
But it's normal to think about it. It is conceivable that Yadson's own will and heart can grow a small blackthorn flower merchant association step by step to what it is today.
Although the hypnosis failed, Sean didn't care about it. This was just a tentative attempt. The success rate is naturally something to be happy about. It's okay to fail, because the outcome of everyone here today is already doomed.
"Banjiro, how are you feeling?"
After walking far away, Yadson asked a man who was following him with a gloomy expression while playing with the iron wrench on his finger.
This man is more than two meters tall, about 40 years old, wearing a traditional kimono, with a samurai sword with a red tassel pinned to his waist. The ace, Banjiro, the Flaming Swordsman, is a wandering swordsman from Wano.
Hearing Yade Song's words, Ban Zilang was silent for a while.
"I didn't feel anything strange from that man, but the girl next to him has a very strong wild aura and an indelible smell of blood."
"is that so?"
Hearing Banzilang's answer, Yade Song was thoughtful, although he knew that Banzilang himself was more sensitive to breath, but this time he had a different opinion.
Although it was only for a moment, Yadson clearly knew that it was not an illusion. At a certain moment before, the harmless young man gave him a feeling of encountering a scourge, and that feeling made his whole body tremble. Goosebumps, so much so that there is still cold sweat on the back.
