Chapter 2122 - 504: The Man in the Black Robe and Black Magic

The crude matchlock gun still uses the most primitive ignition method. That’s right, open flame ignition. This is completely incomparable to the firearms from Huangzhou Prefecture. You must know, inspired by Chen Jie, Tao Guangyi, who already had an exceptional talent for firearms, directly skipped over the era of matchlock guns and entered the era of flintlock guns.

Without seeing the open flame, you can directly pull the trigger and shoot, with very high accuracy.

Unlike this fire stick I’m holding now, you can tell it’s trash at first glance. When igniting, it’s hard to aim, so it can only blast within a rough range.

So this gun really doesn’t catch Chen Jie’s eye.

Moreover, the gunpowder used in this gun, although based on a higher European composition, is only average in power. The gunpowder from Huangzhou Prefecture can already threaten those in the Refining Body Realm, and even Liu Jin Realm experts.

But this gunpowder might only pose a threat to those in the Skin Buff Realm. At most, it’s intimidating to those in the Refining Body Realm, not a particularly powerful weapon.

Of course, there are no large pirate groups gathered in Zhangke Port right now, so these firearms are sufficient to deter some lowlifes. Furthermore, firing upon entering the port aligns perfectly with Garuno’s flamboyant character.

Bam!

Upon hearing the gunshot, several pirates in a nearby tavern put down their drinking cups and turned toward the direction of the port.

"Firing as soon as they dock, who’s so arrogant?"

A bearded pirate asked. Hearing this, another pirate beside him said, "It’s the red ghosts Vega Pirate Group."

"The red ghosts?"

Hearing this, one pirate slightly frowned. At this moment, the bearded pirate said, "Don’t provoke him. This guy has some strength, with Rainbow Realm intensity. He’s a tough character, but a bit flamboyant in his actions."

"Rainbow Realm!"

Upon hearing this, the pirate murmured, "Quite tough indeed."

Having said that, he stopped looking over there. A Rainbow Realm expert with a hundred slaves was enough to dissuade these pirates from seeking trouble.

Because a hundred slaves are worth at most eighteen thousand taels of silver, such a small amount isn’t worth provoking a Rainbow Realm expert over.

It’s not that they can’t win, it’s just not worth it.

Thus, Garuno arrogantly led Chen Jie and his group toward a specific tavern in the bustling port, though the business there wasn’t doing well.

Garuno’s leather shoes made creaking sounds on the ground, showing off, but privately he told Chen Jie, "Honorable Lord, you must not show courtesy in front of this trash. Otherwise, not only won’t they appreciate it, but they’ll think you’re weak and easy to bully. You must use your fists to show them you’re not easy to mess with, so they won’t dare to provoke you."

Upon hearing Garuno’s words, Chen Jie lightly nodded and said, "Understood."

Garuno said, "Of course, should you choose to reveal your strength, no one on this island would dare oppose you."

Chen Jie replied, "I don’t want to reveal my strength."

Garuno said, "Certainly. You are like God; whatever you wish, I will cooperate with you and never put you in a difficult spot."

"Is that tavern up ahead the agreed-upon place?"

Hearing this, Garuno said, "That’s right, it’s there."

"Though they didn’t specify a time, just told us to wait there!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Wait? Then we’ll wait."

Bam, Garuno kicked the tavern door open and strode inside.

The tavern owner glanced at Garuno and said, "Move the people to the back kitchen. You can just sit at the table."

Hearing this, Garuno frowned and asked, "You know me?"

The tavern owner replied, "Garuno, if you don’t want to die, put away your arrogance and sit there without causing trouble, or you’ll regret it."

Upon hearing this, Garuno chuckled and said, "Very well, I’ll fulfill your wish, sir."

Having said this, Garuno winked, and along with his thirty-odd underlings, he directly took over five tables against the wall.

The owner remained silent with a lowered head, and for a moment, the atmosphere in the room became very eerie.

They waited for a while, and then Garuno said, "Hey, owner, won’t you at least give us some drinks while we wait?"

Upon hearing this, the owner said, "Shut up and wait."

Garuno continued to endure and glanced at Chen Jie, who appeared quite composed, as if meditating like an old monk, and Zhang Dingbian beside him was also in no hurry, sitting and waiting.

Only then did Garuno relax, careful not to upset these two masters, as getting beaten up by them wouldn’t be worth it.

Thinking this, they waited for another hour. Then the tavern door was opened, and another group of pirates escorting slaves entered.

Seeing them, Garuno immediately recognized them as a more notable pirate group, the Water Bear Pirate Group.

"Move the people to the back kitchen, go sit on the left."

Upon hearing this, the pirate leader frowned and angrily said, "You tavern owner, now you’re commanding me, are you?"

Hmph!

At this moment, the tavern owner glared, and a horrific pressure subdued the pirate leader into silence.

Because the tavern owner actually had Dragon Realm strength.

Feeling the tavern owner’s strength, Chen Jie and Zhang Dingbian exchanged a knowing glance. It seemed this group had some skills after all.

Thinking this in mind, Chen Jie made no other moves, simply continued waiting. Without the main character appearing, he didn’t want to be too conspicuous. After all, a Dragon Realm in front of these small pirates might be formidable, but in front of Chen Jie and Zhang Dingbian, it was nothing, easily wiped out. Chen Jie was more curious about the people behind them.
