Chapter 24 Barbossa's Bar (Bonus Chapter for Recommended Tickets)

The only person who looked normal in this bar was the bartender. He wore tight stockings that reached his calves, loose trousers, a long suit with large buttons, a waistcoat, and a beige shirt with no tie. Seeing Fang Senyan and his two companions squeezing their way over, he indifferently said:

"Only rum and beer. How many drinks?"

Fang Senyan simply threw a handful of gold louis on the bar:

"Our time is tight, so your recommendations aren't very appealing to us. I'm hoping to get some information from you."

The bartender smiled coldly, pocketed the gold louis, and continued:

"We only have rum and beer here. How many drinks, please?"

Fang Senyan's expression changed. "We're not here to drink."

The bartender gave a sly smile.

"Then please leave."

Fang Senyan suddenly burst out laughing.

"Interesting, very interesting. Looks like you're planning to rip us off?"

The bartender sneered:

"Frey, we have trouble here."

At the bartender's call, several burly men drinking in the distance walked over. They cracked their knuckles and sized up Fang Senyan and his companions with unfriendly eyes. The leader, with curly chest hair, must have been Frey:

"Are you leaving now, or do I have to throw you out?"

The bartender suddenly said in a sinister voice:

"These greenhorns don't know the rules and came straight to me for information, huh? But they're quite generous, giving me a nice bonus. For the sake of these gold louis, Frey, just cut off one of their hands and let them go."

Fang Senyan was in a hurry and didn't have time to waste words. He sighed and shook his head.

But at this moment, Kanbi, with a grim face, took a step forward and roared:

"You bastards! Anyone who disrespects the boss must die!"

Frey's eyes widened, feeling his authority challenged. He immediately threw a fierce punch at Kanbi's face. Kanbi also threw a punch to meet it head-on. Two equally crude and vicious guys were about to collide head-on!

Frey's Strength stat was a full 40 points. For other contractors whose average stats were at most 30, 40 points was an almost completely overwhelming number, but for Kanbi, who had obtained the powerful Ogre Gauntlets, it wasn't enough!

Kanbi suddenly exerted his strength when he punched. There was a crisp "crack," and Frey's arm twisted completely like a matchstick. The huge impact sent him flying. His face turned red, and his heavy body crashed into a beam in the bar with a "boom," then collapsed to the ground. Blood began to pour from his mouth...

The whole bar shook violently, and dust fell. Originally, no one had noticed the situation in the chaotic bar. Kanbi's attack immediately became the focus of everyone's attention!!

Frey's henchmen didn't understand what was happening. Seeing their boss being beaten, they rushed forward. Kanbi seemed to have a lot of experience in bar fights. He laughed wildly and pounced forward, sweeping an elbow across the chest of the thug on the right. With a series of crisp "crack, crack" sounds, the thug's chest immediately collapsed, and blood spurted out, adding a bloody smell to the already filthy air.

At this moment, another thug picked up an iron bar and hit Kanbi on the head. With a muffled thud, Kanbi's body swayed. Fang Senyan immediately noticed that Kanbi's health had dropped sharply. Obviously, wearing the gauntlets had weakened his defense and survivability considerably.

How could Fang Senyan and the others stand by and watch Kanbi get ganged up on? Fang Senyan kicked out, sending a thug flying half a meter off the ground, crashing through the darkness and knocking over countless pieces of furniture. Jiao Shi and Mogansha were not to be outdone, and they beat the thugs to the ground with a few punches and kicks.

Seeing that the situation was bad, the bartender tried to escape. Hei Ge们 raised his gun with one hand, and a five-round burst pierced his thigh, causing him to fall face down in a dog-eating posture, knocking out his front teeth, and bleeding from the nose. The guys in the bar then realized that this bartender called "Black Widow fu" had originally wanted to bully newcomers for money, but he had kicked a steel plate.

Although Kanbi was as docile as a lamb in front of Fang Senyan, he now showed the ferocity of a pirate. He rubbed the bump on the back of his head, his eyes flashing fiercely. First, he grabbed the guy who hit him with the iron bar, grabbed his head and slammed it against the corner of the bar! In the guy's screams, he didn't hesitate to beat him to death!

Then, Kanbi clapped his hands and strode to the "Black Widow fu," who was struggling in a pool of blood. He grabbed his hair, pulled his upper body off the ground, and said face to face, word by word:

"I heard you were going to chop off the boss's hand and kick us out?"

"Black Widow fu's" eyes were full of resentment. He gritted his teeth and said:

"Do you know who owns this place? Mr. Barbossa will tear off your skin and hang it on the chimney when he finds out! All the women in your family will be sold to be..."

Before he could finish speaking, Kanbi slapped him! His brute strength was so great that this slap probably cracked his cheekbones. Blood flowed from Black Widow fu's ears. He struggled to say something, but Kanbi raised his hand again.

"Wait!" Fang Senyan said suddenly.

"Black Widow fu's" eyes lit up with joy, and he couldn't help but laugh, vaguely saying:

"Are you scared? Kneel down and beg for mercy a thousand times, and maybe I'll spare your worthless life."

Fang Senyan ignored him and said to the confused Kanbi:

"I still have something to ask him. Remember not to kill him, and he can hear and speak. You can do whatever else you want."

"Black Widow fu's" triumphant and intermittent laughter suddenly choked in his throat, and Kanbi grinned and grabbed him, pressing his right arm on the bar. Black Widow fu finally felt fear. The fingers of his pinned right hand kept flexing, trying to break free, but how could he resist Kanbi's brute force?

In the next second, a shrill scream rang out. Kanbi punched Black Widow fu's suspended right arm. The power of this punch was beyond imagination. Black Widow fu's right arm was smashed like a dry branch, and Kanbi grabbed and tore it off, spraying blood everywhere.

Under such torture, "Black Widow fu" finally collapsed and began to scream for mercy. Fang Senyan squatted down and said with interest:

"What, are you interested in telling me now?"

Black Widow fu's face was covered in blood, saliva, snot, and dirt. He looked as embarrassed and humiliated as possible. He seemed to have no strength to speak. The only thing he could do was nod repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice.

Fang Senyan said lightly:

"Has anything unusual happened on the island recently?"

Black Widow fu gasped and said with difficulty:

"If you're talking about... Tortuga... the most talked-about thing recently is... all the big shops are buying rare and valuable things at high prices."

Fang Senyan said:

"Is that so? That doesn't seem worth the seventeen gold pounds I gave you."

Kanbi said grimly beside him:

"I think adding two eyes, a nose, and two ears is about enough to pay off the debt."

Black Widow fu shuddered and said:

"Wait!! Actually, these guys who buy rare and valuable things eventually sell them to the Gypsies, often selling them for two or three times the price in one transaction!"

Fang Senyan asked suspiciously:

"Really?"

"Really!!" Black Widow fu trembled. "I swear on my ancestors' graves!"

The so-called Gypsies are another name for the Roma people in the real world. They are good at smelting, wandering, and divination. Tarot cards and caravans are the representatives of this ethnic group.

At this time, Fang Senyan and his companions received a prompt from the Nightmare Imprint:

"Hidden Main Quest Turning Point: Triggered."

"You have two options."

"First, go to some reliable big shops to inquire about information about rare and valuable things."

"Second, go to the buyers among the Gypsies and trade with them directly to inquire about information about rare and valuable things."

"Warning: Choosing the second option will further increase the difficulty of the mission."

The difficulty of the mission for Fang Senyan and his companions entering the world was B minus. After triggering the hidden mission: Turning Point, the difficulty increased to B. If they chose the second branch, then without a doubt, the difficulty would increase to B+, which was on par with the difficulty of the direct troops who killed the Queen of Blades in the Starship Troopers world.

But considering that Jiao Shi could be promoted to a Colonizer at any time, and that the personal forces established by Fang Senyan had already begun to take shape, then the difficulty of B+ was definitely not unacceptable.

So the three of them directly chose the second option. Sure enough, as Fang Senyan had speculated, this hidden main quest was indeed time-limited, and it was extremely closely related to the Gypsies who would leave when the morning sun rose!
