The Pirate Lord ended up bringing us to the place where the weapon was supposedly stored.
On the way, Ries had already searched through the files and found the code needed to activate the weapon so there was no need to worry about us not having it.
Incidentally, the only people following us were the Pirate Lord and that guy who guided us to him earlier. Matsumoto, if I remember correctly.
That reminds me…
"I think I just realised this… I still don't know your name," I pointed out, addressing the Pirate Lord.
He huffed, "And there's a reason why you don't know. It is intentional that people don't know my name."
"What? Are you shy or something?"
"There is just no reason for you to know. Names have power and I don't intend for anyone else to have power over me. If you have to call me, you can refer to me as 'My Lord'."
"Yeah, I will not be doing that so no thanks."
"Has anyone ever told you that you have guts?"
"Well, you did just a few moments ago."
"Hmph…"
