Poseidon in Tomorrow's Ark

Laplande also came to Texas the next moment and stopped him: "Don't worry, don't you think it's a miracle that we can meet again in Syracuse?"

Texas held up his sword: "I have something to do now."

Lappland looked at Texas holding a sword, and a smile appeared on his face: "What a coincidence, I have something to do too."

Lappland looked back at the figure over there: "Is it your job to protect this person?"

"You are..." The guards of the Bellone family heard the noise and hurried over to see what was going on. When they were about to ask what was going on, they saw Lappland swinging his sword at them.

Texas moved even faster. He went around Lappland's side and used the sword in his hand to knock Lappland's sword away.

"Ah...!" The guard just realized that the person in front of him might be an enemy and immediately wanted to draw his weapon, but was stopped by Texas.

Laplande looked at Texas's actions and smiled: "You really don't understand romance, don't you think, Texas."

Texas raised his chin behind him and said, "You guys go protect the target, I'll deal with her."

[Be careful~] Suddenly, a gentle voice came to Texas' ears.

The sound was so faint that Texas couldn't even be sure whether he heard anything at all. It was like a flash of thought in his mind.

"And be careful..." Texas looked at Texas and warned again, "The action against him has already begun, it won't be that simple."

The guard nodded quickly: "Yes, yes!"

Lapland didn't care about the guard who turned and ran away. He was more interested in Texas. He flipped his hand and a piece of puff pastry appeared in his hand. He waved it at Texas and said, "So, do you want to eat puff pastry?"

Texas was silent for a while, then stretched out his hand to Lappland: "...Give me a piece."

"Ha, that's right!" Laplande handed the puff pastry to Texas. "Texas, no, in Syracuse, wouldn't it be more appropriate to call you Cellinina?"

Texas took a bite of Laplande's puff pastry: "...forget it."

"Well, to be honest, I'm more used to calling you that. The power of habit is really terrible, isn't it?" Lappland stretched lazily. "I live a leisurely life in Longmen. I occasionally meet in Rhodes Island, and I may even go on a mission together."

"My sword is getting rusty."

Lapland opened her arms to allow more of herself to receive more rain: "It's still this familiar rain that cheers me up."

Texas looked at Lappland: "Swords will only rust when exposed to rain."

"But the rain in Syracuse is used to wash away bloodstains." Laplande raised the sword in his hand to Texas. "Only people like you who show off their swords in the market without intending to use them will worry about rust."

"..." Texas looked at Lappland. As long as he was still here, the problem wouldn't be serious, so Texas didn't suggest chatting. "Why are you here?"

"It's easy, because you are here." Laplander raised the sword in his hand and pointed it at Texas. "Hey, Texas, how long have you not been to Syracuse?"

--------------

"Let's go, the action against you has already begun, we have to leave immediately." Belonega's men were guarding him, and Karachi was about to stuff him into the car. It was obvious that the assassination had already begun, and they had to take him away immediately.

Just as Karachi was about to get on the car, he heard a sigh in his ear, and then he felt someone pulling him.

The force was very slight, and there was no need to use any effort to resist it, but it also caused Karachi to pause in his attempt to get into the car.

Before Karachi could ask, the car suddenly exploded, flames shot up into the sky, and the impact knocked away all the people around.

"What?!" Texas heard the noise and immediately turned back to look at the flames rising into the sky, "Car bomb?!"

"So classic?" Lappland also looked at the fire over there and touched his chin. "It really has no imagination at all."

The guards of the Bellone family hurriedly helped Karachi who had fallen to the ground and was blown away by the shock wave of the flames. It seemed that because of the shock wave of the explosion, the whole person lay on the ground motionless: "Minister Karachi!"

The other guards also hurriedly contacted others: "The banquet venue has been attacked, nearby family members come to the rescue immediately!"

"Tsk." Texas gritted his teeth. It was obvious that the minister was not a match for him. He would not survive facing such a huge explosion.

"Both sides launched attacks at the same time? How interesting!" Lappland smiled as he looked at the car exploding in the distance. "Who is so brave, Texas?"

"Yeah, but it's not surprising. It's always been like this here, right? A wilderness disguised as civilization. It's always been like this."

Chapter 223: Gangster Classics

Texas ignored Lappland's words and rushed into the alley with his weapon in hand. Lappland didn't care about Texas's departure at this time.

She just watched Texas run into the alley with a smile on her face. Everything seemed familiar to him, the cold rain, the dark streets, oh, and the classic car explosions, ah, and of course Texas.

Texas also wore the clothes of the Texas family. Well, was it the Bellone family who made them for Texas? By the way, is this considered a mockery?

Oh, no, are you going to announce something? Well, it doesn't seem worth it. The benefits of hiring a Texas guard are much greater than the risks.

"So what do they want to do?" Lappland tapped the hilt of the sword and looked aside. "By the way, the fat man is still alive. Is it because of the fat that he was protected, or is there another reason?"

--------------

Texas ran to the alley, looked at the alley that seemed to be empty, and said coldly, "Come out."

As Texas finished speaking, several armed men walked out from the shadows around him.

Texas looked at the assassins surrounding him and sighed, "Sure enough."

The cold rain was still falling, and Texas saw through the rain that the two killers behind him looked at each other, then rushed towards him with weapons.

"Really? Don't worry so much." Texas swung the sword in his hand with a smile on his face and killed the two assassins who rushed over.

What should I do if I want to return to Longmen?

Texas has been thinking about this question since he set foot in the city.

According to the agreement with Zaro, completely obeying Bellone's orders is naturally the easiest way.

However, Texas already had a vague feeling that what was happening in the city was not simple, but it didn't matter, she was very familiar with it.

Texas turned around, looked at the killer and asked, "Who sent you here?"

The killer was silent for a while before he said calmly, "You don't need to know."

Texas was not surprised by the killer's answer. After all, this was Syracuse. She knew Syracuse and she knew that such things would never end.

She just felt that everything was so familiar, and everything was still so disgusting, even more disgusting than she had expected.

There would be no one here to support her in battle.

【Hey! 】

Afterwards, no one would ask her if she was hurt or force her to go to a party.

[They are in the hotel. ]

This had already become something she took for granted, so much so that now, after only being away from Longmen for a short while, she discovered that everything in Longmen was so nostalgic.

Finally, Texas felt that there seemed to be some dissatisfied gazes looking at her in the rain.

'I know you're here, thank you, but can you please let me handle this matter on my own now?'

【It’s up to you～】

With the last soft whisper, Texas fell, and the feeling of being stared at disappeared. However, Texas guessed that she should still be watching her nearby, but, at least before she overturned, Xiyue should not provide any more help?

Speaking of which, is Zaro in trouble with his boss and Xiyue? I think so. So next, he should continue to deal with the group of guys in front of him.

"Get out of the way." Texas raised the blade that was still dripping with blood, "Don't block my way, don't prevent me from going home."

——————Syracuse Wilderness——————

"The help you gave was too obvious, wasn't it?" The emperor poked Xiyue's arm in dissatisfaction, "She was able to handle it on her own just now."

"What's wrong?" Xiyue sat on the chair, looking at the water curtain in front of her and shrugged, "I'm free anyway, it's just a little help."

"It's a pity that the rain didn't get any heavier. I could only pull him up and help him avoid the most terrifying impact, but his life should be fine."

"So what's next?" The emperor patted the crystal ball under his buttocks, "What are you going to do? But I have to say, the car bomb is too classic.

"A classic gangster movie." Xiyue smiled. "There are so many places to hide things in a car. It's secretive and deadly. It's a classic of gangster culture."

The emperor curled his lips and said, "I really don't like the gangster culture. I don't like the Columbia culture even more."

"It's all the same, actually." Xiyue slid the water curtain, "Before everything reaches self-sufficiency, civilization will always go through a stage like this."

"The law of the jungle has always existed." The emperor also nodded, and finally pulled out the glass ball from under his butt, shook the glass ball and looked inside, revealing a hopeless Zaro in this life.

"It's just that people put a coat on it, called rules or civilization, and added more rules for it, so I think you are stupid, Zaro."

The emperor looked at Zaro who looked up in the glass ball and said, "After all, you are still in the wasteland, and you are still playing the same game. Don't you think it's ridiculous, my friend?"

"So what do you want to do now?" Zaro looked at the emperor weakly through the sky, "Why do you let me go after you've vented your anger and given me enough answers?"

"You'll have to ask Xiyue about this." The emperor shrugged and turned the glass ball in another direction. "Look, your body is there. I don't have the ability to put your soul back."

"...So you are just here to talk dirty to me and mock me?" Zaro rolled his eyes at the emperor. Anyway, he was already in the other party's hands, so he might as well save face and be tough.

"Wow, you're really stubborn. Did you apply plaster before going out?" The emperor tossed the glass ball up and down. "It's all in my hands. Logically speaking, shouldn't you be nice to me?"

"How long do you want to be the landscape ball on my desk?"

"That's not your ability." Zaro looked at the emperor who continued to be stubborn, "If we fight, the odds are at most 50-50. You were the one who cheated first, and you don't allow me to be stubborn anymore?"

"What are you talking about?" The emperor handed the crystal ball to Xiyue, "Xiyue was originally my employee, so this is also my ability, but since you said so."

"Sure enough..." Zaro's eyes revealed the success of his plan. He knew that Dadi was very proud. Once he was provoked like this, he would definitely want to save his face, so that he could...

“Xiyue, just…” Just when it seemed to be moving in the direction that Zaro wanted, the emperor took the crystal ball back and said, “Do you think I would say that?”

"I told you to try this on ordinary people. No one with a brain would be fooled."

"You guy!" Zaro looked at the ground, and the expression on his face gradually changed. He immediately realized that he had been fooled.

At this moment, Xiyue rushed over and took the glass ball from the emperor's hand: "You are so noisy, okay, let's leave it at that."

"What?" Zaro looked at Xiyue's somewhat impatient expression and felt a little strange.

But before Zaro could ask, Xiyue threw the glass ball at Zaro's body next to him. The originally hard glass ball shattered instantly when it touched Zaro's body.

After a while, Zaro stood up and looked at Xiyue: "What does this mean?"

"What does this mean?" Zaro looked at Xiyue, a little confused, "Why did you suddenly let me go?"

"You guys are so noisy." Xiyue waved her hand, "Just do what you need to do and enjoy your fun. We have already vented our anger."

After getting Xiyue's permission, Zaro didn't waste any time and immediately turned into black mist and disappeared on the spot. He didn't want to stay here anymore.

The main thing is that if I stay any longer, my older brother will definitely be two years younger than him, so it’s better to leave quickly.

"I haven't had enough fun yet." The emperor looked at the direction where Zaro left, "You're just going to let him go like this?"

"That's about it~" Xiyue waved her hand, "Boss, you put the glass ball under your butt, don't you think it hurts your butt, or do you want to hatch eggs?"

"I'm the beast master, not a real penguin." The boss rolled his eyes, "So, what are you going to do next? Are you just going to sit here and watch the show?"

"Put it in a nice way. You can be a trader or a spectator." Xiyue smiled and waved her hand. The picture on the water curtain began to change gradually. "Well, this game of theirs is quite exciting. Who do you want to bet on to win?"

"It's not those wolves anyway."

——————Syracuse Volsine——————

On a street, Leontuso could not escape the fate of being attacked.

Leontuso dodged the arrows and shouted, "Get down!"

When Rubio heard Leontuso's voice, he immediately jumped and lay on the ground to hide from the flying arrow.

Capone frowned as he looked at Laiwangtu: "Tsk... I thought he was just a young master, but he's actually quite difficult to deal with. He's worthy of being a member of the Bellone family..."

Leontuso was also panting. His current condition was not very good. "... Tsk, the opponent is very difficult to deal with. Rubio, retreat."

"They're obviously coming for me!"

Rubio nodded immediately, then quickly got up from the ground and ran away: "I, I know!"

He had just taken two steps when two killers rushed out from the alley at the side. Seeing Rubio running towards them, they immediately raised their weapons and slashed at him.

Rubio, who had difficulty walking, saw the blade coming at him and had no time to escape. He could only shout out a sound like it was squeezed out of his trachea: "Ah!!!"

"Tsk, is there one over there too!" Leontuso, who was still paying attention to this side, saw the situation and shot the killer away, "Get out of here!"

Capone sighed and shook his head helplessly, then re-strung the arrow: "Tsk, what a difficult guy."

Gambino spat to the side: "Capone is in the mood to talk so much nonsense, why not get started quickly, we don't have time..."

Just as Gambino was about to continue, he saw a figure running over from the street in the distance. After seeing who it was, Gambino exclaimed in surprise: "Help is coming? Wait, what, that's not from Penguin Logistics..."

"Huh?" Texas from Penguin Logistics looked at Lai Lai with some confusion when he heard someone say that. After seeing clearly, he raised his eyebrows. These two were still alive.

But never mind, just live, no matter what. Or rather, if they are her enemy now, it won’t be too late to kill them later.

Texas swung his sword to knock Gambino's sword away. Just as Texas was about to continue chasing, he saw Capone's arrow shot at him from the corner of his eye.

Texas' instinctive sense of crisis told him that the arrow was not effective, so he pressed Lucao's head down.
