They all call me Great Master-Chapter 606 - 603: Friendship Between Pirates is Not Even as Good as Seaweed!
Inside the enhanced version of the "Shelter," Old John looked at Horton, who had appeared in front of him, with a face full of surprise.
"Part of your trade?"
Old John, while soothing the monkey on his shoulder that had become restless due to the scent of blood, secretly sized up this special collaborator before him.
The captain 'saw' the battle that had just occurred.
That's why the captain was surprised by the strength Horton displayed.
Old John had thought he had already overestimated the young man's strength, but when it was truly displayed, he was still taken aback.
'Damn it!
Why are young people like this nowadays?
One more cunning than the next, each better at hiding their trump cards.
Shouldn't youth be about being carefree and careless?
Should we old folks be thinking about retirement?'
Recalling the sight of Horton manipulating the storm to raise massive waves and a large ship, then aiming at Sakiri's chest for a blow, and even decapitating that fool Sakiri's head, the old captain felt his skin crawl. This feeling was especially strong when he thought about how Horton maintained a considerable distance from that fool Sakiri during the whole process. It made the old captain's scalp tingle.

Thus, at this moment, the old captain looked at Horton with caution filling his heart.
"Trade?
If it truly were a trade, I'd be off to Coconut Island to find the 'Spirit Medium' right now."
Horton slightly shook his head.
This made 'Bloody John' startle.
"What is it?"
The old captain couldn't help but ask.
In the room at No. 2 Cork Street in South Los, Arthur took a deep breath, controlling 'Horton' and spoke softly—
"Pleasing."
"Hm?"
Faced with Horton's reply, the old captain was dumbfounded and he couldn't help but ask again.
"What? What did you say?
I didn't mishear, did I?"
With that, the old captain's eyes widened.
"No, you didn't mishear.
I am indeed trying to please the 'Spirit Medium'."
Horton smiled and shook his head with even more certainty in his words.
Suddenly, 'Bloody John' felt like his brain wasn't working properly.
The old captain simply couldn't associate Horton, who had effortlessly slain Sakiri, with the word 'pleasing'.
Without a doubt, Horton's strength was 'Entrant' level.
And it was related to 'Storm.'
Such an ability was exceedingly convenient at sea, capable of creating storms and enabling flight. With a decent ship, one could freely roam.
Even faced with the Mother Tigress of the South Los House, there would be considerable leverage.
Why would such a person need to 'please' anyone?
It's because—
The South Los 'Spirit Medium' is so powerful that Horton needs to please her.
That power far exceeds what he had originally calculated.
And there's influence!
The influence would also surpass imagination!
'If 'Entrant' Horton has to please her, then the South Los 'Spirit Medium's strength is...
Ascend Step?!
Hiss!'
'Bloody John' gasped in shock.
Involuntarily, the old captain began to imagine.
And through the eyes of the 'General Puppet,' Arthur smiled at this scene.
He wasn't afraid of others thinking or imagining.
He was happy for others to think and imagine.
When others' thoughts and imagination are within a certain range, it would only bring about his greatest goodwill.
"I can no longer stand in South Los, but I can still stand on the nearby seas—I originally hoped to manage an island to showcase my ability and win that person's recognition. Then, I could follow the great person by the means of the 'Lionheart Ceremony'...
However, the appearance of some idiots made me realize, perhaps compared to the long-term operation of an island, it's far better to offer some 'Meritorious Service' to the great person!
The great person lives in South Los, so if there's goodwill from the South Los House, the great person will definitely live better.
And then I would gain the great person's recognition."
Horton casually spoke words that sent shivers down 'Bloody John's' back.
The old captain asked tremulously.
"You want to be a Pirate Hunter?"
"No!
I only want to be a pirate hunter who is useful to the adult.
I will hunt down those guys who can provide the adult with better living conditions.
John, rest assured, this does not include you.
Just as I won't mind that you disclosed my name and didn't stick to calling me X."
Horton said, revealing a smile.
In response, Old John appeared somewhat embarrassed.
The old captain had done this deliberately.
The old captain did not trust Horton.
Therefore, the old captain prepared many tests.
However, the affairs of the 'Devil of Dokiman Island' Pirate Group were not in the old captain's plan.
But the sudden appearance of Sakiri brought the old captain a substantial gain.
While mulling over this in his heart, the old captain lowered his voice and said—
"Nobles are not to be trusted."
This was a well-known saying throughout South County.
And that South Los 'Spirit Medium' had only recently acquired noble status, fitting perfectly into this category.
"Other nobles are not to be trusted,
But this definitely does not include that adult—Old John, you will never understand what that adult stands for, nor do you comprehend that adult's charm.
If necessary, I could die for that adult!"
Horton declared emphatically.
Old John was dumbfounded.
'What's going on? What's happening?
Has the 'Entrant' been bewitched as well?
Is this some Succubus-level 'Spirit Medium'?
'Bloody John' couldn't help but rant inwardly.
Then, suddenly, a name nearly forgotten sprung up unbidden in the old captain's mind—
Severus Hamlet!
Or call him: Old Lion!
The charm displayed by that South Los 'Spirit Medium' seemed to be like the widely talked about ability 'Lion Group' of Old Lion.
Suddenly, the old captain shivered.
He felt as if he had stumbled upon a shocking secret!
Could it be?
Could it be?
How is this possible?
The old captain kept exclaiming in his heart.
But somehow, the old captain had already started to believe in this possibility.
Because, apart from 'Lion Group', the old captain could think of no other explanation.
Thump! Thump, thump!
Unwittingly, the old captain's heartbeat began to quicken.
The old captain felt this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Perhaps he could...
One idea after another came forth, and the old captain immediately began to smile, his three gold teeth glinting among a mouthful of rotten ones—
"Rest assured, leave it to me.
I will certainly help with this favor.
After all, we're friends."
"Thank you, John."
Horton expressed his gratitude sincerely.
Old John didn't feel even a tiny bit sorry.
Even though he had already decided to betray Horton and exchange this earth-shattering news for a favor grand enough.
Yet, he still acted like Horton's dear friend.
Pirates, huh?
Betrayal is all too common.
The crux of the matter now is...
Who to sell this information to?
But soon, the old pirate had his answer—
Old Lion!
