Chapter 129
Chapter 129 Caribbean (2)
The Fallen Pirate King Carlos.
He was once an absolute ruler who ruled the Caribbean and a rare criminal who terrorized the continent. The downfall of Carlos, who had a powerful pirate fleet, overwhelming power, and enormous wealth, was due to the betrayal of his right-hand man, Sparrow.
“Kuuuuu... Sparrow! How... how could you do this to me!”
“How long did you think you could sit on that throne and act like an absolute? Captain, now the time has come for this Caribbean to greet a new era.”
Carlos, who reigned in the Caribbean as the Pirate King for over ten years. Sparrow, who was always looking out for his position, did not miss the opportunity that came one day.
“He helps me become the leader of the Black Pirates. The only condition is that half of the control of the Caribbean be handed over to us.”
Although smaller in scale compared to the Black Pirates, the Red Beard with their leader, Able, who seduced countless criminals in the Caribbean with their incredibly alluring beauty and powerful weapons.
One day in the middle of the night, Sparrow fell for the sweet story she whispered to her, and a surprise coup began as a result. Carlos fought fiercely, but was unable to overcome the overwhelming numerical difference and was eventually captured by them.
“Keuhehehe... that is foolish. Stupid Sparrow. Do you really think that two organizations can rule the Caribbean peacefully under the same sky?”
Carlos did not lose the spirit of an overwhelming ruler until the moment he was dragged into an unknown dungeon. He spoke in a terrifyingly confident voice.
“You will die miserably crawling on the street because of them before long.”
And the prophecy he left came true.
“Anyway... after that rebellion, the power of the Caribbean was divided into two. Factions that have sworn allegiance to the Black Pirates and factions that follow the Redbeard Clash dozens of times a day, staining the streets with blood.”
Carlos, who ruled the Caribbean with overwhelming power and absolute charisma. When he disappeared, a group of wildcats to occupy the vacant seat of power in the Caribbean raised their heads and began to look for opportunities, and great confusion came to this place.
“Ahh... the old days were really good. I knew that everyone was a criminal and made a living by doing bad things, but at that time, there was loyalty and there were rules only for criminals, so it was peaceful in its own way...” Now, it's a threatening
atmosphere that won't be strange if a knife comes to the back of the head anytime. Betrayal, cheating, retaliation, instigation... In the Caribbean, which has become a dirty gutter full of all sorts of despicable and sloppy things, Hans muttered with a longing on his face, as if recalling memories of his childhood.
“Master, didn’t you say that kid was 10 years old?”
“Maybe?”
“one. What kind of idiot is talking about a lump of blood that hasn’t even dried up on its head?”
It looks like an old man who has lived through the world, lamenting while remembering the good times of the past. After seeing it, Tan, who has lived an uncountably long time, looked at him with an expression of absurdity and murmured. However, Jaeyoung looked at Hans and asked, not showing any signs of Tan's words.
“So... if it’s me, there won’t be a big problem in meeting Carlos, right?”
[Beginner Killer Dex]
A title obtained by sending green beginners who just started playing the game in the habitat of past slimes to the nether road. There were as many as 30,000 beginners who died at his hands and the things that resulted from it, so he answered Jae-young's question with a nervous face and swallowed his saliva.
“....Sure. That's enough, even compared to Able-sama... no, Carlos-sama, it's not inferior at all.”
Carlos, the pirate king, the role model and idol of criminals.
Jae-young feels a huge and vicious bad karma that matches, or perhaps even surpasses, the bad karma he has built while ruling the Caribbean for decades. Hans' eyes as he looked at him were full of fear, curiosity and awe.
“Then that part is solved... The other problem is that no one knows where that Carlos is?”
“Yes. And even if you know where he is, it's practically impossible to talk to him. I don't know, but it's probably because the elites closest to the Black Pirates or Red Beard are guarding it 24 hours a day.”
Even though they are fighting fiercely for power right now, both factions absolutely did not want Carlos, the protagonist of the golden age of the old world, to be released.
“Hmm... that’s right.”
Hans keeps saying it's impossible and keeps trying. However, despite his words, Jaeyoung's face was relaxed. As if all of this was not an impossible task for him, but something that could easily be solved if he set his mind to it.
“Master, what are you worrying about from a while ago? Can't we just throw it all away?”
“It is a corrupt city overflowing with people worthy of judgment. We need to bring severe justice to this land as soon as possible.”
And Tan and L whispering behind Jaeyoung's back. At the words of these two angels and demons, Jaeyoung glanced at them and said.
“You guys... are you trying to make things bigger again and try to rip off the probability somehow?”
flinch.
At those words, Tan and L pause for a moment. His expression instantly changed as if he had been exposed, but he shouted shamelessly as if he was sorry.
“What are you talking about! The owner is so nice!”
“No matter how important probability is, it is not the duty of a guardian angel to lead people on the wrong path. There is no such intention at all.”
Every time something happens, Tan and L hope to flip the game on a scale beyond what they imagined, and induce it that way. However, Jaeyoung wanted to handle this as quietly as possible.
‘Whatever it is, if I deal with the upper heads... the lower ones will be useful.'
Carlos, the former pirate king who was betrayed and ruined.
Jae-young stood up and said, thinking that if he could free the former ruler of the Caribbean and help him take over the city of these criminals again, he would have a lot of useful things to do in the future, if not just this one.
“You don’t have to turn the whole table upside down just because some of the food went bad. The rest alone would be a pretty decent feast.”
“...What does that mean...?”
Jaeyoung mumbles incomprehensible words. Looking at him, Hans tilted his head and asked, but Jaeyoung exclaimed with an evil smile.
“Kangshin.”
Dig.
A huge window filled up in front of my eyes at those words. Examining the available spirits from the heavens and the demons one by one, he was able to find the most suitable person.
[Shadow Assassin Leader Umyeong]
“This is it.”
An assassination squad in the shadows that exists only in legends, with no status, affiliation, or reality.
The head of a vicious secret society that promises absolute death to those they target, and the legendary being who single-handedly assassinated the emperor of an ancient empire after defeating the entire bodyguard and bodyguard guarding him, has been summoned to Arcadia again. I borrowed Jaeyoung's body.
[The existence of the demon world dwells in the player's body.]
[The power of the existence that dwells temporarily can be demonstrated.]
Pajijik.
“What is this...?”
Unprecedented, gigantic power suddenly swirls around the body. Hans, who was startled by the ominous energy and backtracked, could not close his open mouth as he saw the existence in front of him that had changed with a completely different force.
eyes turned red. And he disappeared into the shadows as he looked around here and there with jet-black eyes.
“It is an amazing skill. To be able to hide and move through the shadows.”
Jaeyoung moves through the shadows as if experimenting with something. Hans exclaimed in surprise when he saw Jaeyoung leaping through the shadows behind him.
“Heh heh! Help me!”
If he had the intent to kill, it would not have been strange if he died in an instant. However, since Jaeyoung had no intention of doing so, he just looked at Hans with an absurd look and said,
“....What is he saying now?”
“Okay, I was wrong. I won't mess around again! It was wrong to call you uncle, so please forgive me!”
Hans instinctively smelled the thick smell of blood and death, as if he would take his own life right now. He was seized with a maddening fear and unconsciously banged his head on the floor, begging for forgiveness.
[Passive skill Endless Fear of Death is activated.]
[Passive skill Madness in the Shadows is activated.]
Perhaps because of the influence of the skill possessed by Umyeong, the leader of the Shadow Assassins, the feeling of fear and intimidation is too great for a child to handle. Jaeyoung. So, he muttered a bitter taste and disappeared.
“Well... Anyway, thank you. If things go well later, I'll come back to play, so take care of yourself.”
Hans, who had been begging for his life with his head down for a long time. He lifted his tear-stained face and quietly looked ahead. All he found was a few gold coins lying around.

Arcadia, the world's first virtual reality game.
It was thanks to the control of Alice, a near-perfect artificial intelligence system, that this huge game enjoyed by billions of people was supported.
