Chapter 6

When he obtained the 【Dilapidated Flintlock Pistol】 earlier, Su Xiao received many prompts.

But the dagger he obtained had no prompts, no specific data, and didn't show whether it could be sold.

This made Su Xiao guess that the 【Dilapidated Flintlock Pistol】 he obtained earlier had both luck components and might have been deliberately arranged by "Reincarnation Paradise."

It meant that he could obtain weapons, but he needed to take some risks. This should be the law of "Reincarnation Paradise."

And the dagger in his hand was clearly not in this category. The dagger was very sharp, he could use it, but it couldn't be taken out of the Pirate World, nor could it be exchanged for Paradise Coins.

This is also a matter of course. If anything could be sold for Paradise Coins, then the currency mechanism of "Reincarnation Paradise" would just be a joke.

Driving the not-so-obedient horse, Su Xiao gradually approached the city gate. Those guards had already come into his line of sight.

Suddenly changing owners, this old horse was clearly a bit disobedient, which made Su Xiao a bit troubled. He had never controlled a horse, but the guards were right in front of him, and he couldn't retreat.

Pulling the reins in his hand, the horse snorted and stopped in place.

Su Xiao stopped voluntarily to accept the inspection. According to his guess, it was relatively relaxed when leaving the city, but entering the city was definitely not that simple.

A few guards walked up, looking lazy, but their eyes were as sharp as hawks.

"What's going on? Back to the city so early today?"

The guard's familiar attitude made Su Xiao's hair stand on end.

These guards might know the identity of the black market merchant, and both sides might even have a conflict of interest. Things were a bit difficult.

"Sir, just went out of the city today, and was robbed by Toby's faction, ugh~."

Su Xiao's voice was very blurry and accompanied by bursts of retching. His voice was different from the coachman's, so he did it on purpose.

Cooperating with the foul stench of the sewage on his clothes, those guards didn't suspect him and even stayed away from Su Xiao for a distance.

"What? Toby? Are they looking for death? Even you they dare to rob? Doesn't he know your identity?"

The guard in front of Su Xiao was clearly a bit angry, but another guard on the side said:

"Boss, that guy Toby has expanded his power very quickly recently. According to my informant, Toby just wiped out Roger's faction. Now, except for the Bluejam Pirates, there is no faction in the Scrap Terminal that surpasses Toby."

"Just let it go? What about the money?"

A few guards looked at each other. Although they were all unwilling, they had no way to deal with Toby, who was hiding in the Scrap Terminal.

"You..., forget it. Next time if there is such a thing again, you don't have to come back, just 'live' in the Scrap Terminal."

Su Xiao pretended to nod submissively, but his eyes were very calm.

The more critical the moment, the more calm one must be. Many failures happen because of complacency before success.

Su Xiao drove the horse, and the brown old horse moved forward somewhat reluctantly.

Just before Su Xiao left, a guard leaned over to look at the bottom of the carriage to avoid anyone hiding under the carriage. This was a common method for refugees to mix into the city.

Su Xiao had never thought of hiding under the carriage but directly killed the coachman and replaced him. This method was risky, but it grasped the blind spot of the guards' supervision.

The trash carriage gradually passed through the city gate and drove forward steadily, three meters, five meters, ten meters.

"Carlos, wait."

The guard's shout came from behind. Su Xiao's pupils contracted, but immediately returned to normal.

"Regarding your nephew's matter, I have already arranged it. With enough 'sincerity', you can go to the guard team to report today."

The guard held one hand high, rubbing his thumb and middle finger together. The so-called "sincerity" referred to money.

Su Xiao nodded hurriedly, pretending to thank him, but made bursts of retching.

"Hurry up and go, it really stinks to death, I can smell it from so far away."

Su Xiao certainly wouldn't miss such a good opportunity. He picked up the whip on the side and gave the old horse's butt a whip.

"Snap~."

A crisp sound spread, the old horse let out a mournful cry, and its pace clearly accelerated.

The infiltration was successful. Su Xiao safely mixed into the capital of the Goa Kingdom.

Although he had safer ways to infiltrate the capital, that required time, and his time was not abundant now.

And from the fragments of those guards' words, he obtained a lot of useful information.

First, the current time point is before the original protagonist Monkey D. Luffy went to sea, which is Luffy's childhood, or Luffy was not born at all.

The basis for determining this point is the Bluejam Pirates in the guard's mouth.

If Su Xiao remembers correctly, the Bluejam Pirates are the pirate group that fought with the young Luffy, Ace, and others in the fire in the original work.

The Bluejam Pirates were used by the king of the Goa Kingdom in the original work, personally ignited the Scrap Terminal, and were then abandoned, left to fend for themselves in the fire.

And the second is a very unexpected harvest. Perhaps this harvest is the key to Su Xiao's mission success.

Just now, a sentence from the guard made Su Xiao overjoyed, which is "Regarding your nephew's matter, I have already arranged it. With enough 'sincerity', you can go to the guard team to report today."

It seems this was some kind of transaction between the dead black market merchant and the guarding guard, using money to buy a job in the guard team.

If Su Xiao impersonated the other person's nephew to enter the guard team, that meant he was one step closer to the assassination target.

Although doing so is very risky, it is also the best method at the moment. Reincarnation Paradise didn't arrange an identity for him; he is just an outsider without a household registration.

Su Xiao drove the carriage on the streets of the capital of the Goa Kingdom. Because he had just entered the outer layer of the capital, this was just a residential area for civilians.

The streets in the civilian area were still clean, and both sides of the street were full of peddlers hawking.

A large group of civilians walked leisurely on the streets, making the whole city look bustling, but some civilians had sorrow on their faces and looked hurried.

The only difference between these civilians and the refugees outside the wall is that they won't starve, but they are also struggling on the edge of food and clothing.

The Pirate World is in an era of turmoil, full of wars and pirates running around, so the living conditions of civilians are relatively poor.

Walking on the noisy streets, Su Xiao felt like a lifetime away, as if this was not a mission world, but a real world, where everyone was a human being with flesh and blood, not so-called NPCs.

From those guards earlier, it could be seen that the other side's vigilance was not low. If Su Xiao hadn't been well-prepared and responded quickly, he might have been exposed.

In the mission world, don't underestimate anyone, Su Xiao warned himself in his heart.

However, the primary thing now is to find a place to wash his body. The 【Treasure Chest (White)】 obtained earlier also needs to be opened. He wants to use all the resources he can use.

Su Xiao, who is only lv. 1, is really struggling in this lv. 6, nightmare-difficulty world.
