Chapter 28 Suzuki’s Way of Asking for Directions
An atmosphere of terror filled the room.
The pot-bellied transportation company owner was now extremely panicked.
He looked at Suzuki opposite, who was smiling more gently, and seemed even more frightened when he heard Suzuki's comforting words.
Don't panic?
Just kidding, can he not panic?
He knows quite a bit about what his company does.
On the surface, it is shipping and delivering letters by mail, but secretly there is also a shady business such as human trafficking, tax evasion, tax avoidance, shoddy goods, etc.
At the same time, shipping is not just about delivering food, he is also responsible for transporting arms!
He was counting money in the office and was very happy. Suddenly, a man who was very powerful came in.
He had no clue about Suzuki's identity.
Suzuki was sent by the navy to check on him? Or is he an enemy of any country in the West Sea?
Or is he a pirate, here to seek wealth?
These were all fine, but he was afraid that Suzuki was the kind of hot-blooded young man who would die ten times for his crime.
As for the unfriendly way of entering, it was obviously directly through the window on the eleventh floor, breaking the glass!
Or just asking for directions?
The fat boss didn’t really believe Suzuki’s words.
And what does it mean to rarely kill? Is it a threat? No, it must be a threat.
So, in order to save his life, the fat boss immediately followed Suzuki's words and nodded quickly:
"Ah, yes, you can ask me whatever you want, big brother!"
"No matter what it is, as long as I know it, I promise to tell you everything!"
"As long as you don't be impulsive~ I still have a lot of money here. If you feel you need it after asking, I can give it to you!"
After saying that, the fat boss's face was trembling, and he looked at Suzuki with tears in his eyes.
"."
Suzuki glanced at the fat boss and said nothing.
Doesn't he look like a murderous person?
Although he was indeed preparing to kill someone, this alarming result also made Suzuki reflect that he should let them leave with a smile next time.
Also, he was indeed a little rough when he came in, which was not good. It would be best to appear behind them quietly next time.
but…
Are you scared?
No, it should be said that the fat man has something on his mind.
After all, there are very few transportation companies in the pirate world that are not involved in crime.
But that’s fine, it’s much easier to ask questions.
Looking at the fat boss who was still scared in front of him, Suzuki thought secretly in his heart, while maintaining a gentle smile, he said amiably:
"Then sir, please tell me, where is the top of the Western Sky to Sky Island?"
"Don't lie, people who lie will be chopped into pieces~"
Hearing Suzuki's words that were almost a direct threat, the fat boss' face trembled again.
He tremblingly replied to Suzuki:
"Here, this big brother, the top of the Western Heaven is at the far west of the Western Sea."
"There are very few islands there. The nearest island is Fuyun Island."
"Brother, if you want to go there, I can arrange a boat to take you there!"
"Can you please take the dagger away from my neck~"
"Woooooooo~"
Suzuki unknowingly picked up the dagger and put it on the fat boss's neck, still with a gentle smile on his face.
Hearing the fat boss's answer, Suzuki was not too satisfied, so he asked the fat boss amiably:
"Can you tell me all the details about the Summit of the West? Sir."
"I'm a little unsteady on this dagger. You need to make it clear."
"Also, don't be afraid, you will make me feel guilty~"
After hearing Suzuki's request and threat again, he felt that the dagger on his neck seemed to be getting a little closer.
The fat boss didn't dare to nod for fear of cutting his neck, so he blinked his eyes quickly, and then replied with a cry like a pig's howl:
"Okay, okay."
"Brother, don't worry, I will definitely make it clear!"
"Hold the dagger firmly, okay~"
After feeling the dagger tightening again, the fat boss didn't care to beg for mercy and soon started talking about the Summit of the West.
And as the fat boss told, Suzuki also knew:
The Summit of the West is at the westernmost edge of the West Sea!
There is a particularly high mountain there, with an altitude of nearly 10,000 meters!
The top of that high mountain is actually the top of the Western Heaven!
The only way to go to the sky island is through the top of the west sky, but it is not possible to pass there all the time.
Every few months, Sky Island will be very close to the top of the Western Sky Peak due to weather and air currents.
At that time, you only need to prepare a few ropes or chains, or even longer wooden boards, and you can reach the empty island.
But not many people can go to Sky Island. Many people just go to the nearest Fuyun Island to see the strange scenery.
Because to go to Sky Island, you first have to climb to the top of a 10,000-meter mountain. That mountain is very difficult to climb. It will be uncomfortable for people to climb higher. Sometimes there is a strong wind.
Suzuki thought it might be altitude sickness, like what happened to the Straw Hats in the original novel when they first arrived at the White Sea.
So few people can climb that high, and even if they go up, how to get back down is still a problem.
As soon as the fat boss finished speaking, he immediately discussed with Suzuki about the dagger on his neck:
"Brother, I made it very clear, please put the dagger away~"
Suzuki had also listened to what the fat boss said. Considering what he was holding, he didn't think the fat boss would choose to deceive him.
But be steady!
Suzuki still maintained a gentle smile on his face, and said kindly to the fat boss:
"Very well, sir. Please repeat it again. Say what you just said."
"If there is anything different from what I said the first time, then I can only express my pity to you~"
The fat boss is a little desperate. Even now, Suzuki still won’t let him go.
I had to cry and say everything I said before again.
After Suzuki listened, he found that the fat boss indeed said the same thing as the first time, so there would be no problem.
Suzuki looked at the fat boss with a distorted expression and fearful eyes, but still did not take off the dagger in his hand.
Thinking in my mind:
Now that you’ve found the way to the top of the West, let’s ask some other questions.
This fat man knows a lot. I'm afraid it will be difficult to meet someone in Xihai who is so easy to ask and knows so much.
You can ask about Xihai, information that he couldn't find out from ordinary people.
It doesn't matter whether it is useful or not, just that it may be useful.
After thinking about this, the gentle smile on Suzuki's face disappeared instantly. He looked at the fat boss with an expressionless face and carefully tied him up with a rope without saying a word.
Then he sat back on the chair and said calmly:
"Very good, you answered what I wanted to ask, very good."
"Next, tell me something else, information about Devil Fruit, information about the major forces in the West Sea~"
"And, information about yourself!"
"Just say whatever comes to mind, try to say something secret and interesting to me, okay, sir?"
The fat boss was unwilling. Suzuki seemed to have not kept his promise, but looking at Suzuki at this time, he did not dare to resist.
So, in the next few hours, Suzuki learned a lot from the fat boss
