"This is your camp?" Ember looked at the cluster of houses made of wood and rock in front of him, and asked Taylor beside him.
"Yes, the camp is at its limit now, but there is still a steady stream of people coming here." Taylor lowered his head and sighed, if it weren't for the beasts sending a lot of food and supplies this time, it wouldn't take half a month, the camp would probably break out in famine, and it was almost the end of the year, although the temperature on Headhunter Island was not too low, but it still needed cold items, and the camp couldn't take out so many things.
"Okay, organize the manpower, and I'll open up a temporary dock for people to move things down." After Ember finished speaking, he turned around and turned into an orc form, and with his movements, the sea in front of him began to freeze, and in less than a breath, it turned into a solid layer of ice, leading directly to the ship in the distance.
"Whew~" Taylor shuddered, wrapped the animal skin jacket on his body, the influence of the Pruss crocodile fruit made his tolerance for low temperatures greatly reduced, even in human form.
But the other party is so generous, he can't even bear this little thing, he hurriedly gathered people, the young men in the camp were brought by Taylor, when he learned that the beasts were willing to provide free supplies and manpower to help them overthrow the nobles, not to mention anything else, at least the prestige, the beasts have definitely reached the top directly in the hearts of these refugees.
Ember stood on a reef, looking at the smiling faces of the people lining up in front of him to transport goods, the corners of his mouth under the mask were also slightly hooked, he liked such scenes, whenever this happened, he would think, if there were hundreds of beasts back then, would his own race be able to survive some more people?
Ember shook his head and put this thought aside, there are no ifs in this world, what he has to do now is to work with Big Brother Kaido and Big Sister Lily to save more people who are persecuted by the nobility and the government, overthrow those disgusting nobles, and let the tragedy of the Luna Clan not happen again.
"Mr. Ember, what are you doing here?" Taylor climbed up the reef, he had just seen someone here, and because he was afraid that it was the king's spies, he hurried over to take a look, but he didn't expect it to be an ember.
"Taylor, do you believe in retribution?" Instead of answering Taylor's question directly, Ember came out of nowhere.
"Retribution?" Taylor rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, "I don't know, maybe there is, I believe that those who hurt others will suffer retribution one day." "
"yes, one day they will suffer retribution, and we are speeding up the process." Ember clenched his fists, his tone filled with unshakable determination.
"Is this the case with Mr. Ember's hometown?" Although he couldn't see his face, Taylor could still feel the hatred of the nobles and oppressors in Ember's heart through his voice and movements.
"No, in my hometown, there are only two people left, me and my sister." Ember shook his head and said with a little loneliness.
"This..." Taylor didn't know what to say for a while, this was so miserable, he couldn't persuade him at all, how to say it? Condolences? ! What's the use of saying this at this time? Don't you have back pain when you stand and talk?
"Taylor, do you know? Hundred beasts are actually a group of people who have been persecuted by the country, the aristocracy, and the world government to keep warm. "
"Mr. Kaido and Ms. Lily too?" Taylor thinks of the arrogant Kaido and the dignified Lily, and wonders if these two people will also be persecuted?
"Yes, Taylor, it's the same with Big Brother Kaido and Big Sister Lily, Big Brother Kaido once drank too much and said that they were also betrayed by the country." Ember didn't know the specific situation, but remembering that when Kaido said these words, his face was full of loneliness, and Lily next to him was also silent, judging from the fact that the events at that time were probably a big blow to them.
"Is that so? I see. Taylor nodded, it turns out that even someone as powerful as Kaido and Lily would suffer this kind of thing?
"By the way, speaking of which, I wanted to pull you into the gang by helping you with this in the first place, and I need to apologize to you for this." Ember suddenly said, this time it turned a little fast, almost making Taylor's brain a little unable to turn, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he was stunned in place.
"But Brother Kaido stopped me, and Brother Kaido said that if I did this, how would it be different from those nobles who oppressed others by their hands and authority." Speaking of this, Ember sneered, "Big brother is right, if you invite the other party to join you, you still need to force it through this right in your hand, how am I different from those nobles." "
"Actually, it's nothing, there are some ways to achieve your goals, everyone will do it." Taylor was trying his best to make up for Ember, and he didn't know how the conversation came to be like this.
"No, Taylor, Brother Kaido is right, from a young age, if I succeed this time, maybe I will think in my heart that this is right, this is correct, next time I will still do this, if it is against the enemy, it doesn't matter, but I am trying to win over my own people, then this is absolutely not allowed." Ember didn't care what Taylor said for him, but happily admitted his mistake.
"Hey, okay, I accept your apology." Taylor sighed, I knew I couldn't say anything about Ember, "Is that why Mr. Kaido asked me in the Steel Islands at the time?" "
"That's right, what Brother Kaido means is that if you don't agree, invite a few more times, let the other party see the good of the beasts, and let the other party join willingly." Ember smiled and said what Kaido meant.
"He really deserves to be the captain of a hundred beasts, Mr. Kaido, this kind of heart is not comparable to ordinary people." Taylor came to Ember's side, looked at the carrying crowd together, and said with feeling.
"So, what do you think now?"
"Wait a minute, I want to overthrow the nobles on our island first, after all, you need to vote, don't you?" Taylor said with a tilt of his head and a smile at Ash.
"Hahaha, okay, then after settling down the villagers, let's discuss what to do next." Taylor said it so obviously, how could Ember not understand what Taylor meant, and immediately patted Taylor on the shoulder happily.
"No problem, I told my comrades in the rebels about it when I came back, and they meant the same thing, since the king doesn't plan to give us a way to live, then naturally we can't be blamed for choosing a better leader."
"That's right, believe me, the Hundred Beasts will be a good group, and Big Brother Kaido and Big Sister Lily are definitely good leaders."
"Speaking of Mr. Kaido and Ms. Lily, I'm a little curious, are they husband and wife?" After chatting about business, Taylor couldn't help but relax a little and began to gossip and ask.
"No, no, at least not yet, but we all feel like it will be in the future, and Quinn and they have made a bet on when the two of them will find out about their relationship." For this question that all beasts are curious about, Ember is also not exempt from vulgarity.
"Gamble? How to gamble? As soon as he heard the gambling game, Taylor came to his senses, he usually has nothing to do, and he will gamble with others, but he never gambles big, it is always to the point.
"Time, bet on time, whoever is closest to the time wins, but they don't gamble money, they bet on points." Ember is also mixed with a hand, so understand the situation.
"Points? What points? "For this internal matter, Taylor, who has not officially joined, is naturally not very clear.
"Points? That's a set of internal reward and punishment rules designed by Sister Lily, by completing different tasks, handing in various things, you can get points, and then exchange various benefits with the group, if you have enough points, you can even get Devil Fruits, of course, you can also exchange them for money, but generally no one does this, they generally choose to let Brother Kaido or Sister Lily give them guidance and training, after all, on this sea, strength is fundamental, as for Devil Fruits, one is that the price is too high, plus the stock in the group is too small now, So for the time being, there is no one to redeem, after all, the strength is enough, and Big Brother Kaido and Big Sister Lily will give it to you directly. Ember briefly explained the points rules to Taylor.
"Is that so? Looks like I need to work on it. "
"That's right, work hard, the beasts won't treat anyone who is capable."
Just as the two were having a good conversation, a discordant voice interrupted the conversation.
"Boss Ember! Surveillance to discover unknown people! "
