Planck's wedding.

It's a big deal.

As the most powerful person in Bilgewater, his marriage naturally caused everyone on the island to rush for it.

The central fountain square was cleaned and sealed three days in advance, and a variety of flowers from all over the world were put in. At that time, it will serve as the main wedding venue and the most important part of the wedding ceremony will be held.

The streets of the entire city were also completely cleaned, and every household was asked to place flowers in front of their doors to express the celebration.

The fleet that had no chance to participate in the war but just happened to catch up with the wedding, a relatively elite part of it was also selected to form the wedding honor guard. On the wedding day, after the wedding ceremony in the central fountain square, the newlyweds

You will board the Abyss and go to sea, and under their protection, you will have an extremely romantic feast on the sea and in the sky.

"Speaking of which, what gift did you give me?" Graves exhaled a puff of smoke and glanced at Chen Senran and asked.

In the past few days, all the respectable people on the island have been sending gifts to Planck. There are rumors that Planck has to use a separate house to store all the gifts he receives.

"I gave him a big victory, isn't this a big gift?" Chen Senran also exhaled a puff of smoke and said a little casually.

The weather is exceptionally good today, and the streets are newly washed and empty.

Chen Senran and Graves each moved a chair and lay down at the door of Liquor and Gunpowder. While smoking cigars, they watched the warships in the harbor not far away who were undergoing emergency drills and chatted.

"It's heavy. Isn't it a little too heavy?" Graves glanced sideways at the ships that had just seen the law for the first time, and said with a smile, "It's just a marriage. Do you need to be so serious? Are you really going to fight?"

Chen Senran didn't answer. He just smoked.

After a long time, he spoke again: "Is the Fight Club still there?"

"Fight Club?" Graves was stunned for a moment, unable to adapt to the jumping rhythm. He paused and then said, "Yes, what?"

"I want to see their person in charge." Chen Senran didn't explain much, just said this.

"Yeah." Graves didn't ask any more questions. He was used to Chen Senran's inscrutable nature.

He didn't want to guess, and he didn't want to guess.

"It's been a long time since you've been back to the mainland?" Chen Senran asked immediately.

"Yeah." After asking this question, Graves fell silent. Obviously, he thought of that guy again.

His lifelong enemy, former best friend, and card master Drizzt.

"When this matter is over, we will go to the mainland. I think..." Chen Senran looked at the sky with a cigarette in his mouth. He said slowly, "I may know where he is."

It's still morning.

Planck's private residence.

Planck, who was about to enter the palace of marriage and complete an important change in his life, was still eating breakfast leisurely.

Opposite him, at the other end of the long table, sat Proto.

His former trusted subordinate, now a sinner, and the current captain of the Abyss.

"Eat, Proto." Planck drank the red wine from Chateau Merlin and spread caviar on the bread casually.

"Captain, I think..." Proto did not move. He looked at Planck, hesitating as if he wanted to say something.

"Okay, don't mention things like you are resigning. The fault is not yours, it's the general trend. You have done a good job. I also want you to fly the Abyss for me and host my wedding." Pu Pu

But Langke shook his head and refused to let him continue, "You will come to my wedding."

"Of course..." Proto reluctantly replied.

"Proto, you have been with me for the longest time. I admit that there was a time when I didn't trust you. But your loyalty has won me back." Plank said meaningfully, "As long as you are willing to come back, you will still be

My first mate."

"Yes..." Proto answered like this, but in his heart he couldn't help but think of what the blind man said to him...

No matter what, if things really get to the point I don't want and you make a mistake, I can let you live...

So, the road has been laid out, which one should we take?

Which one is right?

————————————————————

Night, it’s night again.

On the streets near the sea, there are already magic lights prepared for the wedding that stay on all night long, shining with dazzling light.

On the extremely clean street, a person walked slowly. He passed the shops that had been closed due to late night, and finally stopped in front of the old and dim noodle shop at the end of the street.

It's still seafood noodles, and it's still the seat next to the bamboo curtain.

As usual, the woman next door is already eating noodles.

"This should be the last time we see each other?" the woman inside said.

"Why is this the last time we meet? Are you so unsure of me, or have you decided to stand on his side?" The man smiled and took the newly cooked noodles and began to eat them happily.

"Of course it's the last time. No matter who of you wins, we will never meet again." The woman was silent for a moment and said.

"Oh? Don't you want to see Bilgewater prosper freely in your hands?" The man paused, took a sip of soup, and let out a long breath.

"It's impossible. You and he are the same men. You will never allow power to be in the hands of others." The woman retorted.

"Oh? Then you still choose to cooperate with me?" The man raised his eyebrows, but smiled.

"You are different from him. He is a very lonely person. No one has loved him since he was very young. His father abandoned him when he was two years old. The only person who was good to him was a dead man.

He doesn't trust anyone, he is extremely violent, he will lead Bilgewater into the abyss, he can only be a good pirate, but he will not be a good ruler." The woman spoke for a long time.

The words seemed to be being spoken to a man, but also seemed to be convincing oneself.

"What about me?" the man asked with interest.

"You...you are too smart." To the man, the woman only said these few words.

"Too smart..." The man laughed dumbly, "I'll just take it as your compliment."

The man took a few more bites of noodles and finished the entire bowl of noodles.

"Okay, I'm full, it's time to go." He stood up and said goodbye, "Goodbye then?"

"It's better not to see you again." The woman sighed.

In fact, there was one sentence she didn't say.

The reason why she chose Chen Sen but not Planck.

Just, Gangplank, killed her mother.

But...Chen Senran, really doesn’t know?

The endless darkness of night filled the empty streets.

What color would such a clean street look like if it was stained with blood? (To be continued...)
