Chapter 133: Enemy, Not Friend (First Update)
"Long time no see, Leifa? Is this your name?" A lazy voice came from behind, making Leifa feel familiar and at the same time his heart tightened.
Because the person who greeted him from behind was none other than Marco, the 'Phoenix' who had met him once!
How could he know me?
It was impossible for Refa not to be surprised.
The last time he met Marco was by no means pleasant. To be more precise, Marco suffered a big loss. Even if they were not enemies, they were definitely not friends.
What's more important is that the last time he made Marco suffer a loss in Shampoo, he still appeared as 'Mr.V', and it has been a long time since then.
His appearance has changed a lot in the past two years, but why does Marco know him?
He just came here to see the style of "Whitebeard", but he never thought about intersecting with the people of the "Whitebeard Pirates"...
"What, you are not even going to say hello when you see your old friend?" When Refa turned around, Marco clasped his hands leisurely behind his head and looked at him.
"Do you know me?" Refa asked instead of following Marco's lead.
"Do you still think that the identity of your 'Mr.V' is still a secret? Ever since you offended the 'Celestial Dragons' in Shampoo and triggered the 'Navy Supreme Council', this is no longer a secret on the sea. Yes, any larger force will not be unaware of this... It's just that I pay more attention to you than they do," Marco said.
"Is it because I snatched something from you?" Refa asked, knowing that denying it was meaningless.
"This can be considered one of the reasons. After all, I value people who can make me suffer." Marco smiled, "However, this is only one of the reasons. More importantly, I value you." I appreciate what you did. Even though you are a disgusting hypocrite, you actually dare to offend the 'Tianlong people' head-on. For this reason, you are worthy of my attention. "
"you flatter me."
"As for why I could recognize you at a glance, it's a coincidence. Not long ago, someone offered a reward for information about you in the dark world, so I paid attention to your current situation again. I didn't expect that you could actually force Bondivo back. That guy is indeed a guy I value," Marco said.
"Someone is offering a reward for my information in the dark world? Who?" Refa asked.
"A guy named 'Joker' seems to be very powerful." Marco said directly without hiding anything.
"If it's him, it wouldn't be surprising." Lei Fa suddenly realized.
'Joker' is one of the aliases used by Doflamingo, just like Refa's name 'Mr.V', it is just a nickname on a certain occasion.
He had set up an ambush to intercept Doflamingo before. It was expected that the other party would investigate him afterwards, but he didn't expect that it would attract the attention of others.
"Huh? Are you injured?" Marco suddenly frowned and asked.
"Yes, fortunately, I was rescued by a mermaid from this [Fishman Island], otherwise I would have become the food of some sea beasts by now." Refa said.
"Oh? How could this happen? With your strength, have you encountered a big pirate?"
"Yes, it's a person named Poison Q. I don't know if you have heard of it." Refa wanted to see if he could get some useful information about Poison Q from Marco.
"I've never heard of this person. Is there really such a big pirate?" Marco thought for a while, but still shook his head, saying that he had never heard of such a person.
Refa described the image of Poison Q again, but Marco still didn't remember seeing or hearing about such a person.
"It seems that he is really an unknown strong man." Leifa was a little unwilling.
"This is normal. There are actually many unknown strong men on this sea. Not only on this great route, but also in the four seas, there are also many strong men who are tired of fighting and fighting. They are hidden in the world. Everywhere, it won’t come out easily,” Marco said.
"Why, it looks like you don't plan to deal with me? This is not the navy's territory, and I'm injured again. Even if you don't ask other people from the 'Whitebeard Pirates' to help, you can take me down alone. "Refa suddenly asked.
"You don't need to test me with words. Today is very important. If anyone makes trouble today, my father will be unhappy." Marco shrugged, "Besides, the people of the 'Whitebeard Pirates' did not bully the injured. I’m used to it, even if I wanted to avenge my shame, I wouldn’t do it in this situation.”
"Then thank you for not killing. Come on, let me toast you." Refa smiled and raised his glass to Marco.
"Um."
Marco also picked up a glass of wine from the side, clinked the glasses with Refa, and then said, "Speaking of which, why do I feel that you are not afraid that I will ask people to attack you?"
"Have it?"
"I trust my instincts."
"Then your intuition must be wrong this time. I was extremely nervous just now." Refa said.
Marco shook his head and stopped worrying about this issue. "Come on, let's talk with me. Let's put aside our identities today. There are no navy or pirates here."
"OK."
More than two hours later, after saying goodbye to Marco, Refa followed Aladdin back to his residence.
Thinking back to what happened before, Refa only felt a little strange.
In fact, Marco's intuition was not wrong. Because Leifa did not have much fear before, he has almost recovered now, and this is at the bottom of the sea. If Marco really wants to ask people to surround him and kill him, he is already ready to rush into the sea!
The 'Whitebeard Pirates' are indeed not something he can face alone at the moment. If they are really surrounded, even if they want to escape, it is basically impossible. But don't forget, including 'Whitebeard' and Marco, 'Whitebeard' The most powerful people in the pirate group are almost all Devil Fruit users. Once Raifa enters the sea, there are not many people who can hunt him down.
Moreover, in the sea, he has advantages that others do not have!
With the help of 'eating', he could survive until he surfaced, which is why he could float in the sea for several days without dying, waiting until Aladdin rescued him. ‘Shimei’ can allow him to persist in desperate situations longer than others, not to mention more than ten days, and it will still be no problem.
Of course, it would be better not to do that, because the sea is not a water park, it is also full of dangers. If he really escapes into the sea, he may also be in danger of losing his life, but it will not be immediate. Just death.
"So, next time we meet, we will still be enemies rather than friends..." Lei Fa is still not used to this mode.
He has never quite understood where the friendship between Garp and Roger came from, but considering today's situation and Roger's character, it's not surprising.
"I'm almost done cultivating, it's time to go back."
Walking on the road, Refa secretly made a decision in his heart.
