Chapter 29
Therefore,
Lord Lord Sima Di signaled for the Straw Hat Pirates to remain calm, then dragged Wapol, who was tied up like a rice dumpling, out of a wooden barrel.
"Take a look, is this guy from your country?" Lord Lord Sima Di asked loudly.
A commotion immediately broke out above!
"It's Wapol!"
"He's back!"
"What should we do?"
"He's being held hostage by pirates, should we save him?"
"Do you still want to live the life you had before?"
After a brief commotion,
Everyone's gaze turned to the burly man who had shouted just now. He was Dalton, who had rebuilt the broken kingdom, and was also the leader of everyone at this moment.
"Pirates, state your purpose!" Dalton shouted again.
"We mean no harm," Sanji replied. "We just want to restock some supplies, and then we'll leave."
Dalton stared at the pirates before him, then looked at the trussed-up Wapol.
Finally, he nodded and said, "You have half a day to purchase supplies. During this time, you must remain under our surveillance, and you need to hand over the... hostage in your hands. Any problems with that?"
This condition might have been a bit harsh, but no one present cared.
As pirates,
Being allowed to enter the town to purchase supplies was already a very friendly attitude.
But at this moment, Lord Lord Sima Di flew straight toward Dalton with Wapol.
"What are you doing!"
"Stop!"
"Otherwise we'll open fire!"
Some villagers shouted threats, but Dalton raised his hand to stop them.
He watched calmly as Lord Lord Sima Di landed in front of him, then looked at Wapol with a complex expression.
Once the king of this country, he was not only cruel and excessive, but he had also fled when the country was in danger.
Now that he had returned to the Drum Kingdom, who knew what kind of disaster he would bring to this country that had only recently found stability?
And just like that,
Seeing Dalton, the wilted Wapol saw hope in his eyes!
He struggled to say something, but with Usopp's smelly sock stuffed in his mouth, he could only glare at Dalton with a fierce look.
It was as if he were saying: "Lowly commoner! Why don't you save me yet!"
Born with a sense of superiority, he had no idea what respect was.
This made Dalton's eyes flicker, and then he became even more determined, as if he had made some kind of decision.
"How do you intend to deal with him?" Lord Lord Sima Di asked.
Wapol did not answer directly.
"Please hand him over to me, and someone will take you to town to purchase supplies."
Dalton reached out to grab Wapol, but Lord Lord Sima Di dodged him.
"You haven't answered me yet, how do you intend to deal with him?" Lord Lord Sima Di asked with interest. "Are you going to let him continue to be your king and throw his weight around, or... are you prepared to kill him yourself and take responsibility for everything for this country?"
Dalton was startled!
He didn't expect that the thought he had just formed would be exposed in one word by the young man before him!
Upon hearing this, Wapol was even more incredulous, struggling as if to scold Dalton—how dare you, you lowly commoner!
"Bang!"
Lord Lord Sima Di knocked Wapol unconscious with a dark punch.
"Even tied up, you still can't be quiet."
Lord Lord Sima Di looked at Dalton, waiting for his answer.
"Lord Dalton! This country needs you!"
"Let me do it!"
"I'm an orphan, let me do it! After killing this tyrant, I'll go to the sea and be a free pirate!"
It seemed Dalton's prestige was quite good.
Lord Lord Sima Di smiled.
This person was worth helping.
"How about I give you a plan..."

"How about I give you a plan."
Lord Lord Sima Di drew his Tang Dao, held it high in front of everyone, and was about to chop off Wapol's dog head...
"Swish—"
Dalton knelt halfway in front of Lord Lord Sima Di, catching Lord Lord Sima Di's blade with his hands pressed together.
Lord Lord Sima Di: "..."
Dalton: "..."
Villagers: "..."
Damn!
I forgot he still had that passive skill, "Catching the Blade with Bare Hands 100%".
Lord Lord Sima Di coughed, put away the Tang Dao, and returned it to its sheath.
A blue light shot from his eyes and landed on Wapol, petrifying him into a stone statue, with the look of terror perfectly frozen on his face.
Petrification Beam!
"I see you guys find it hard to kill him, so I'll just help you kill him," Lord Lord Sima Di said. "As a reward, I'll pick a partner from your country, how about that?"
Dalton looked at the little stone man Wapol with mixed feelings, silent.
After a long time,
He said steadily, "As long as the person you choose is willing to go with you, I have no right to stop them from pursuing their dreams."
"Oh?" Lord Lord Sima Di became interested. "Then what if the person I've taken a fancy to is you?"
Dalton would indeed be a reliable partner.
However...
"Sorry, I have already sworn that I will spend this life atoning for the Drum Kingdom," Dalton refused directly.
As expected!
Just hearing this statement made him sound reliable.
But Dalton was too kind and not suitable to be a pirate.
"Alright then, I'm going to look for a partner, you tell my companions for me."
After speaking,
Lord Lord Sima Di rose into the air, identified the landmark of Drum Peak, and flew straight there.
I have to say,
This telekinesis thing is really useful; it can attack, defend, and assist, and it's so convenient to use it to block the wind and snow while flying.
Very quickly,
Lord Lord Sima Di landed in front of the castle on Drum Peak. He didn't choose to enter directly, but politely knocked on the door.
I wonder if Dr. Kureha and Chopper have gone out to practice medicine?
