I'm the King Of Technology

Chapter 806 - A Restless Night For Prey

The Baker?

Who was he?

The young pirates looked at each other in confusion.

Nope!

That name didn't ring a bell.

Seeing their expressions, the pirate sat up and placed his grass hat properly in his head, seized a jug of rum from one of the younger pirate's hands before looking at them mysteriously.

"So, you want to know who The Baker is?

Well, let's start with his qualifications.

He is the actual brother of our leader.

No!

Not the brother of our crew Captain, but the actual brother to the leader of the pirate organization."

Everyone looked at the senior pirate in shock.

Some jumped up while others who had been paying down sat up instead.

The leader was like a God to them.

He was an existence that many dreamed to get a glimpse of before they died.

He was their role model as pirates.

Their leader's tales were something that made people grip their chests excitedly.

.

Everyone knew that the leader had 3 blood brothers from the same mother.

And the only brother known to everyone is Whitebeard.

The other 2 brothers have always remained a mystery to the majority of the pirates.

So how could they not be curious about the Baker?

Of course, their curiosity didn't affect how they thought about this baker guy.

Many began showing disdainful expressions on their faces.

"Hmph!

So what if he's the leader's brother?

Isn't he just rubbing some of the leader's reputation?

If he were that powerful, then how come we have never heard of him?"

"Yeah!

Whitebeard is known and respected for his accomplishments which he obtained over the years.

But the other brothers have no known accomplishment.

As pirates, we are lawless men who respect the strong.

So why should we care about this Baker guy who only uses the leader's reputation?"

(*^*)

.

Everyone sneered with disdainful expressions, which made the senior pirate laugh.

"Hahhahahahahhahahaha!

Your words only show that you all are still too young in this pirate world.

Heh!

From what I know, he's even more deadly than any of the main pirate Captains on this island, including our own captain."

"No way!

I don't believe it!

How can someone like that be better than our crew Captain?"

Everyone felt like the senior had just insulted their Captain if he could compare such a person to their captain.

The senior pirate chugged down a large gulp of rum and hit the jug on the floor excitedly.

"Ahhh!

Good rum!

The reason why you haven't heard of the leader's other brothers, is because you all aren't in a high enough position.

Make no mistake, the 2 men that you look down on, are the fiercest ones within the pirate organization.

Believe it or now, he's someone our crew Captain wouldn't mess with, even if his life depended on it

Think about it.

How can the leader's brothers be weak?

There are many powers working for the organization in the dark.

So it's not that those men are weak, but that your levels are too low to know who they are.

In a single sentence; you all are unqualified."

.

'Boom!'

Like a bomb, the information hit them hard.

What?

Everyone felt like their faces had just been slapped.

The more they listened, the more shocked and scared they were.

What if such a powerful person overheard them and chose to take care of them permanently?

Cold sweat trickled down their backs as they thought about the things they had just said.

Indeed, the pirate organization itself was massive.

And not everyone could work publicly.

Some needed to work behind the shadows.

And no one knew who those people were.

The senior refilled his cup again and gulped its contents down in one go before wiping his mouth fiercely.

"Ahhh!

It gets better and better with every cup." He said while patting his belly.

Everyone looked at him impatiently.

Senior, can you hurry it up and go back to the story already?

Right now, they were scared, as well as in amazement about the baker.

As expected, the brother of their leader was nowhere near ordinary.

.

The senior pirate looked at their anxious expressions and smiled.

"Now you know how big things are.

Even I am not qualified to know about the Baker.

But, I accidentally stumbled upon a certain scene in my younger days that has haunted me till this very day.

You see, there's a reason why they call him the Baker.

His ways of doing things are ways that even I wouldn't wish on my worst enemies.

He is a hidden legend that not just anyone can see.

No one knows what he looks like apart from his brothers.

And that's why it's easy for him to move in the shadows because he could walk right in front of us on the streets, and we won't know who he is.

He's a ghost, and a frightening one at that.

And when he's officially in the presence of pirates, he'll wear a mask.

I heard that he changes his masks daily and had over 400 of them.

He is a person that no one can mess with.

He is the Baker!"

The senior pirate spoke while looking at the main building ahead.

Everyone looked at him and didn't know what he was thinking of.

But the information that he dropped made them shiver uncontrollably.

What sort of scene could haunt someone this long?

They secretly swore never to talk ill of the leader's brothers again.

Who knew if they would be watching from the shadows?

Everyone made a mental note of the name, The Baker.

.

As for the senior pirate, he just continued staring at the main building while lost in thought.

Yesterday, he accidentally spotted a person wearing a unique mask.

And that mask was one that he would never forget even in his dreams.

It was the same mask from that incident in his younger days.

It was really coincidental that the baker chose to wear that particular mask yesterday.

The pirate knew that the next day, the baker would definitely have another mask on as well.

He only knew this much about the baker because his senior brother also worked in the pirate headquarters too.

Many major personnel and pirates knew of the baker.

But all that they knew was superficial.

No one knew where he was going or what he was up to.

He just disappeared and reappeared when he wanted to.

Excluding the Pirate Captains, no one else on the island knew that the baker was here.

And during this time, the pirate Captains had asked their bodyguards to wear masks.

So even if the pirates on the islands saw the masked baker, they would assume that it was a bodyguard on an errand or something.

Only he knew that the baker was actually here.

He looked at the main building curiously.

Why was the baker here, and what was he up to?

Of course, the person in question was hidden in a room way below.

.

In a dark spot room, a masked man looked at his collection of weapons and smiled cruelly before picking one of them up.

With that, he turned around and faced the n.a.k.e.d man who was gagged and with his hands and feet apart.

"Higoro, Higoro, Higoro.

Are you ready to tell me the real truth, or would you rather we play this game nice and slow.

I believe that you're a smart man, though not smarter than I am.

Nonetheless, you're smart enough to make the right call.

So, what's it going to be?"

Higoro was petrified and scared to death when he watched the baker advance with an evil smile on his face.

'Hmmmmmmmmm!

Hmmmmmmmmm!

Hmmmmmmmmmm!'

Higoro's muffled screams only made the Baker more excited.

Tonight was bound to be a restless one for his prey.
