Noticing the discontented expressions of the two, Orn explained with a smile:

"From the information provided by the master, he should be the type who specializes in attacking large pirates.

So there is only one reason why he would attack our Gospel... He knows my true identity, or has seen the whole process of my transformation into a human-beast form, so he can be sure that I am the Orn on the bounty order.

So far, I have only shown my human-beast form in two places, one is Keya Town, and the other is the Kingdom of Flowers, so I can conclude that he has appeared in the waters near these two places, and therefore became interested in me."

After roughly telling Yamato and Rhea about his guess, Orn turned his head and looked at the bearded mysterious man:

"Then next, Mr. Mysterious Man, you should also explain to me and my crew why you have been following us for so long and why you attacked us?"

After hearing this, Yamato and Rhea also came back to their senses and stared at the mysterious man with dissatisfaction.

This guy had better come up with an excuse that can convince them, otherwise, they will definitely make him look good.

Facing the gazes of the three people, Mysterio first took off his cowboy hat and placed it on his chest, bowed to Aoun and the other two to show his apology, and then said lightly:

"There is no special reason, I just want to test whether you are worthy of my joining..."

"Huh?!"

The two women who heard this tilted their heads and made a long sound with obvious doubt.

"So, all the pirate groups you targeted before were..."

"Yes, they failed my test." Mysterio gave a positive answer.

"What a joke!" Leia obviously couldn't accept such a reason. She grabbed Mysterio's collar and said angrily: "Just because of this reason, we will destroy the pirate group we have never met. We... We will not accept guys like you on board!"

Lea originally wanted to say "our pirate group", but when the words came to her lips, she suddenly remembered that their pirate group still did not have a formal name and a pirate flag with its own characteristics, so she could only use "we" dryly to refer to it.

Although he was being pulled by Rhea by the collar, the mysterious man did not show much anger on his face. He could only speak calmly:

"The Hacksaw Pirates looted a village four months ago. More than 70% of the men in the village were slaughtered, and thirteen women were abducted and sold to a slave auction house.

The Silver Spoon Pirates looted a merchant ship of a guild three months ago. The president of the guild and his family of three on the ship were brutally killed and dismembered.

The One-Eyed Crab Pirates are responsible for helping the royal family of the Kingdom of Chito search for beautiful girls for the royal family's enjoyment all year round..."

The mysterious man recounted the numerous evil deeds of several pirate groups he had killed, and finally looked at Rhea and asked:

"Which of these people should not die?"

"This..." Rhea didn't know how to answer.

"What about us?" Yamato asked his own question instead of Rea:

"Since you have been following us for half a month, you should know that we have never done anything bad, right? Why did you attack us?"

Mysterio's expression still did not change much:

"Because you should be heading to Upside Down Mountain soon, my boat can't support me to follow you to Upside Down Mountain, so I must confirm whether you have the strength to join me before that."

"How do you know we are about to go to Upside Down Mountain?" In fact, even Rea didn't know when they would enter Upside Down Mountain.

"I am from the East Sea. Because of some reasons, I came to the West Sea half a year ago, so I know very well that your route is heading towards Upside Down Mountain."

This time, Yamato was silent.

So Mysterio set his eyes on Ornn, and the meaning was very clear-it's your turn to ask questions.

After a moment of silence, Orn asked:

"So... why are you so obsessed with joining a promising pirate group, or what do you want us to do for you?"

Hearing this question, the expression on Mysterio's face finally fluctuated. He looked at Orn and said after a long silence:

"I have an enemy I want to kill, but I can't compare to him in terms of strength or talent, so I want to join a pirate group that can make me stronger, so that I can kill my enemy with my own hands one day."

At this point, Mysterio paused, but still spoke bluntly:

"I want to join you, just because you are the most promising pirate group in the West Sea in my opinion. So, I am willing to join you temporarily, and I am willing to complete all the orders issued by you, the captain, without complaint, whether they are just or evil.

But if in the future, I find that you can't make me stronger quickly, or if I find a pirate group with more prospects than you, I will leave, and I hope you won't stop me. "

The expressions of Yamato and Rhea changed several times, but Orn kept an interested look:

"It sounds interesting, introduce yourself, and tell us who your enemy is. "

"My name is Garland Payton, and my enemy is Van Oka, who is my fellow apprentice. "

When the mysterious man Peyton mentioned the name Van Oka, his cold and hard face almost twisted into a ball.

At the same time, when Orn heard this familiar name, his body shook slightly.

This guy's enemy turned out to be Van Oka? The future captain of the third ship of the Blackbeard Pirates, and they were brothers from the same school?

Thinking of this, Orn's eyes unconsciously fell on the special sniper scope worn by Peyton's right eye... It was indeed the same sniper scope as Van Oka in the anime.

"Can you tell me more about the story of you and your junior brother? Although it's a bit offensive, I think this setting is quite interesting..."

Although Rea and Yamato on the side didn't say anything, they obviously had the same idea as Orn.

The drama of brothers from the same school loving and killing each other is a popular setting that has been popular in various novels and comics for a long time!

Peyton frowned, but still told his own experience after taking a deep breath.

It is not much different from those stories with the same theme. The two brothers were adopted by the master and taught sniping skills by the master. Then one day, the talented brother suddenly turned evil and killed the master and stole the master's beloved gun Qianlu. The brother who couldn't accept it chased the murderer for thousands of miles, but was defeated by the opponent and had one arm disabled. He was almost shot through the heart.

In the end, the brother survived by chance and came to the West Sea and transformed his arm, hoping that one day in the future he could kill the brother and avenge the master...

"That... I have a question?" After listening to the story, Yamato couldn't suppress his curiosity:

"Why did you kill your master?"

Payton lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and shook his head slowly with red eyes:

"He, he said that all this was arranged by fate..."
