Flynn walked across the street with a group of people who were leaving the Kamui Pirates.
They avoided the crowd and walked into an alley.
Walking at the front of the line, Flynn began to explain the plan to leave.
"Go past the corner ahead, and we'll split up."
"The goal of walking in groups is too conspicuous, so we need to make ourselves less noticeable."
"To avoid any unexpected accidents, once we separate, we'll hide in a safe place for a day or two."
"Although our existence is expendable, we can't take that risk."
"It's safer to hide for two days."
Hearing this, the people behind nodded in agreement.
"Well! You're right."
"We'll listen to you!"
"Yes, we're all listening to you."
The crowd smiled and nodded in agreement.
Flynn nodded in satisfaction.
But at this moment, a bad premonition suddenly rose in Flynn's heart.
"Da da da...."
Suddenly, from the corner of the alley, there was the faint sound of footsteps.
This unexpected noise immediately made Flynn frown, and he raised his hand to stop everyone from moving forward.
"Stop!"
Seeing Flynn's unusual behavior, puzzled expressions appeared on everyone's faces, and they asked in confusion.
"What's wrong?!"
"Why are we stopping?"
"Do you have something else to say?!"
A series of questions were thrown.
But Flynn couldn't hear any of it.
A strong unease stirred in his heart, and Flynn suddenly scolded, slightly annoyed.
"Quiet!"
This time, everyone immediately fell silent.
The sound of footsteps coming from the corner of the alley clearly reached everyone's ears.
"Da da da....."
As they heard the footsteps, a bad premonition rose in everyone's hearts.
"Is... is someone approaching?!"
"It can't be them, right?!"
"No! No, we just decided to leave not long ago, they can't have found out!"
"It must be someone who's just passing by!"
"Yes! It must be someone who's just passing by!"
But while their mouths said so, it was just a form of self-comfort.
Their actions betrayed them.
They were retreating, they were... in fear! Fear!
"Da da da....."
The sound of footsteps grew louder, coming closer and closer.
Everyone's nerves were on edge.
Soon, a figure emerged from the corner.
It appeared in front of Flynn and the others.
It was a woman with short brown hair, wearing a long black windbreaker with a red cloud pattern embroidered on it!
And she was also Payne of the Kamui Pirates — the Beast Path!
Seeing this sudden scene, the expressions of the six people, including Flynn, changed drastically.
Boundless fear enveloped their hearts, causing their pupils to contract sharply and their bodies to tremble violently like leaves in the wind.
Staring at Beast Path Payne in front of them, everyone shouted in horror.
"It's her!"
"She's from the Kamui Pirates! Why is she here?!"
"Flynn!!"
"This is not what you told us!!!"
"You lied to me!!!"
"You lied to me, Flynn!!!!"
"Run!!!"
Amidst the shouting, everyone was already terrified by the appearance of Beast Path Payne.
But Beast Path Payne merely stood there, her indifference evident as she stared at the six people fleeing in the alley.
The next moment, Beast Path Payne raised her hand.
A black rod suddenly slipped out of her cuff and was held firmly in her palm.
At the same time, Beast Path Payne, wielding the black rod, charged toward the six people.
Desperate cries echoed through the alley.
"Ugh!!!"
"No! Don't kill me! I won't run away..."
"Pfft!!!"
.....
.....
At the same time, in a tavern in a small town,
The tavern was full of drinkers.
The owner of the tavern, Shamanduo, was smiling at the counter, chatting with the customers.
At that moment, a drinker, about thirty or forty years old, looked at Shamanduo's side, where a boy around fourteen or fifteen years old was drinking juice, and teased him.
"Hey, little brat, go pour your uncle a glass of wine."
As soon as the drinker said this, the boy, who had been drinking juice, suddenly widened his eyes.
Immediately afterward, he stood up, as though his tail had been stepped on, and retorted to the drinker.
"You're the little brat!!"
"I'm going out to sea, to become a pirate, and find the legendary treasure!"
"When I find the great treasure, I'll make you drunkards cry with it!"
