The owner of this tavern had put a lot of thought into decorating. The walls outside were full of green creepers. There was a row of chubby wine barrels in the corners, and even the windows were red rose glass.
Tonk pushed open the door and entered, and there was a strong aroma of wine rushing in. There were more than a dozen large round tables scattered and a row of chairs in front of the bar. There were not many customers here now.
Tonk sat down in front of the bar, asked the waiter for a glass of wine, and told him to get something to eat. It mainly sells wine, but there were still a few simple foods. He was eating fish and drinking wine. As time went by, there were more and more guests in the tavern, and people talked freely under the stimulation of alcohol.
Tonk deliberately chose to eat here just to inquire about more news, mainly about the black toad, or about the next robbery target. In addition, he also needed to recruit a group of sailors.
Although the Pirate King System could recruit sailors, he wanted to save points.
A pair of soft spheres stuck up abruptly, rubbing and deforming on his back inadvertently. Tonk smelled the scent of perfume, and he saw a pair of women's white breasts when he turned his head.
"Do you need someone to accompany you?" the woman said, scratching her head, sitting next to Tonk with bottomless cleavage under her low lace collar.
"I'm honored to have you, but it's not convenient for me to make an appointment." Tonk politely declined.
"I understand, I'm sorry."
"You are Welcome."
The woman kept smiling and got up and left, looking for other customers. Her appearance was of the middle and lower class, but she was proud of her figure. Soon a man was captured and whispered to discuss the overnight fee.
Although Tonk had time tonight, the woman was just commonplace. He wasn't hungry enough to eat anything.
"Waiter, give everyone a glass of brandy, On me." Tonk snapped his fingers and said.
The male waiter smiled and announced the news loudly, and was immediately applauded and thanked. The alcoholics liked a generous person like Tonk. A man who seemed very shrewd came to Tonk, clinked a glass, and took a sip.
"Thank you for the treat, brother." The man said with a breath of alcohol.
Tonk had been wanting to find someone to inquire about the news, so he started chatting and asked, "What's your name?"
"My name is Emmond Robert, have you heard of this surname? It's an ancient surname. My ancestors were royalty, but they were later destroyed." He pouted, "If it wasn't destroyed, maybe I am now the prince."
"Are you a sailor?"
"Hehe, of course I'm a sailor. I spend a lot more time at sea than on land." Emmond said nonsense, "Not only that, I've seen mermaids at sea. They don't even wear clothes. The upper body has a perfect figure, and their faces will be unforgettable for a lifetime as long as you look at them."
"I'm a captain, and I don't have enough sailors on board. Can you help me find it?" Tonk took a sip of wine and said.
When Emmond heard that Tonk was the captain, he was in awe, sat up straight, and said, "I'll take care of this kind of thing! It's too easy for me. How many sailors do you need? Fifty? One hundred? Even if it is two or three hundred? As long as you have money, you can easily find it, don't forget that this is a port city, and everyone grew up eating crabs.”
"But what I'm looking for is not the kind of 'ordinary' sailor, I'm looking for the kind of sailor who is not married, has no parents, and can fight and kill."
Emmond reacted quickly, his color changed slightly. He lowered his voice and said, "Your ship is a pirate ship!?"
Tonk laughed but didn't answer, and was still pouring and drinking by himself.
Emmond's expression became complicated, and he frowned: "Such a sailor is not difficult to find, but I will not go on this kind of ship, but I can help you connect, and you have to give me some hard work fee. Is that okay?"
"No problem, I'll leave this to you. Let them wait for me at the tavern at this time tomorrow." Tonk said cheerfully and patted Emmond on the shoulder in a friendly gesture.
Pirates are important members active in the era of great voyages. They are familiar to the people at the seaside. Emmond was not too resistant. He approached Tonk just to make some money.
"But I have to remind you in advance that a pirate captain was caught by the navy recently and will be executed in a few days. Because of the influence of this news, their salary may be higher if you recruit pirate sailors."
"The salary doesn't matter. I can afford it. As long as they take the money and work for me."
"Do you have a contract in hand? Or do you want me to draft it for you? I have seen a contract for a pirate ship, and I have a little impression."
"I don't have a contract, you can write it for me. There is only one purpose, and that is to obey my orders." Tonk's words changed, "By the way, who is the captain to be executed tomorrow?"
Emmond looked around cautiously, for fear that this sensitive topic would be heard by people. It was obviously not good to be associated with a death-row prisoner.
Most of the people were still drinking and chatting, and they didn't pay attention to Tonk's conversation. Only a one-eyed man in the corner pricked up his ears and peeked at Emmond. He had two pistols tucked into his waist and a heavy package at his feet.
Emmond turned his head, his face looked a little weird in the dim light. He said in a voice that only Tonk could hear: "The captain of the Purgatory is to be executed, his name is Cam. I heard that it is because of the people on the ship betrayed him, so he was caught. In addition, I also heard the news that the Purgatory was acquired by the Black Toad Pirates and became their seventh ship."
Tonk's eyes narrowed, and he asked, "Has the Black Toad Pirates grown again?"
"Please keep your voice down!" Emmond was frightened out, he then replied, "Yes, the Black Toad Pirates have incorporated the Purgatory and become more powerful, even the leader Harold's bounty was improved a lot.”
Tonk nodded and asked, "How much strength do you think it will take to defeat the Black Toad Pirates?"
Emmond widened his eyes and said, "Are you kidding me?"
"Don't make a fuss, I am just wondering."
Emmond wiped his sweat, though he didn't think Tonk was joking no matter how he looked at it. But when Tonk asked this question, he had to think for a while and replied, "To be sure, you need ten ships, and all of them must be large warships. They must be ships of the navy warship level, and each ship must be equipped with six hundred to seven hundred sailors, and there must be more than a hundred guns on it."
The appearance of those warships came to Tonk's mind. Each of them could easily crush the Black Pearl. He frowned and said, "As far as I know, the Black Toad Pirates only have two or three large ships, and the rest are medium-sized ships. Is it necessary like this?"
Emmond looked at Tonk with the expression of a layman, and then explained: "The problem is that the black toad's boat is too powerful. Have you heard of sea beasts like bomb-spitting frogs? Black toad's boats are all this kind of thing. They are more powerful than artillery. Especially the main ship 'Black Whale' of them, there are dozens of bomb-spitting frogs on it, and a few are very large."
He said more and more vigorously: "Plus they have Purgatory, which makes it even more difficult to deal with. Purgatory is also a very powerful ship. This ship can turn the sea into a sea of fire. It can resist three large ships at the same time, the name purgatory is not bragging."
"Fine, let's drink first..." After Tonk found out the details of the black toad, he felt that the completion of this task was a long way off. He was a bit boring.
"In a few days, the leader of the Purgatory Pirates will be executed. You can go and see." Emmond suggested.
"It's okay to go and see the fun."
At this time, the one-eyed man who had been eavesdropping on the conversation broke the wine glass and threw a silver coin on the table as a drink fee. The people around were startled and looked at the one-eyed man who threw the cup in a daze. The one-eyed rushed over. Tonk raised his vigilance, raised his hand, and held the big sword on his back, ready to shoot at any time.
The one-eyed man did not look at Tonk, but stared at Emmond with red eyes, took out his gun and put it against Emmond's head, and scolded in a hoarse voice: "Captain Cam won't die, you trash talker!"
The owner of this tavern had put a lot of thought into decorating. The walls outside were full of green creepers. There was a row of chubby wine barrels in the corners, and even the windows were red rose glass.
