Humans are profit-seeking creatures, especially pirates. When there is enough profit, many pirates can put risks and even their own lives aside.

Perhaps even Dolek did not expect that such a clearly rumored news would spread so widely and attract so many pirates.

This is a chaotic neutral zone, and there are many pirates and underground forces entrenched here. Some people may have had the idea of ​​coming here before, but this news only amplified this idea.

But for Dolek, it was a headache.

At this moment, he was so filled with hatred that if it weren't for that damn bastard Babulus, he wouldn't even dare to go to sea now.

This place that can accommodate pirates has its own order. If it goes to the sea, there will be no such good thing. Dolek cannot guarantee that he can disappear from the eyes of so many people.

The most hateful thing is that he has refuted the rumors many times, but many people still only believe what they want to believe, that is, they think he has a devil fruit in his hand. In other words, even if they already know that he does not have such a thing in his hand, they still want to take advantage of it.

Such a good opportunity to bite off a piece of flesh from him.

Not all pirates yearn for the new world and want something as illusory as ONE PIECE. Many pirates may not intend to leave the North Sea area throughout their lives.

For such people, the purpose is just to make money.

Of course, there are also some ambitious pirates who want Devil Fruits and will do whatever it takes to get them.

This is really a helpless thing. If Dolek really had a Devil Fruit, he would never think about some bullshit auction now, but would eat it directly so that these people can no longer covet him.

However, there are no ifs in reality. He can still only bear this kind of frustration and live under the eyes of many people every day.

Fortunately, his own strength is strong enough in this area, and the pirate group's men are not bad, so no one has taken action against him yet.

But as the news continues to ferment, no one can tell what will happen. It is like rows of gunpowder. It only takes a little spark to explode instantly.

"Captain, this is not the way to go. Last night, several people tried to sneak into our ship. Several brothers were injured."

"These damn bastards all want to fish in troubled waters and gnaw at our flesh and blood. Don't they know that news like Devil Fruit is false? No, many people know it, but they just need a decent person.

It’s an excuse to have a feast-like carnival, and we are the materials for this feast.” Dolek snorted coldly, his one eye flashing with a cold light, “But if you want to swallow us, you have to see if your appetite is enough.

Okay, I have secretly contacted other people. This time may not be an opportunity for us. Since we are regarded as prey, we must be prepared to be attacked by the prey. Give me a few days, and they will find out then,

They think we are sharks that can be hunted and killed at a cost, but in fact we are sea kings that can swallow them."

Dolek himself is not a good person, and he will never sit still and wait for death. He has not done anything these days. On the one hand, he attracts attention openly, and on the other hand, he is also active secretly, colluding with some people.

, we must take this opportunity to plan carefully. After success, the strength of the pirate group will be significantly improved.

Of course, it is still unclear who is the mantis and who is the sparrow.

"As expected of the captain, we will just endure it for a few more days and see how they die." In view of Dolek's past achievements, his subordinates easily chose to believe Dolek.

"You should be more restrained these days and continue acting as before." The people who came to him were naturally confidants, so there was no need to worry about the plan being leaked. Dolek was thinking about other things, "It's a pity that Babrus That bastard left here early, otherwise I would never let him go this time. I even suspect that there is a lot of news that he spread out deliberately, just to deal with me."

"It's a pity that he doesn't know the captain's plan. Once the captain and we deal with these greedy hyenas, our strength will definitely increase greatly. No matter how we deal with them, it's not all the captain's decision."

"Kuhahahaha, yes, just let that bastard live a few more days, and one day he will understand the consequences of going against me." Dolek showed a sinister smile.

Several of his subordinates laughed together, and for a moment it felt like a group of demons dancing around.

…

…

After landing, the pirates' days were lackluster, and night was when they were most energetic.

The Copper Bell Tavern is a place where many pirates would like to come. Although the wine here is more expensive than other places, there is no problem with the quality, and there will never be any mixing of alcohol with the water.

Not to mention that the meat business operated in the tavern is the best, with good quality and not many bad things. Except that the price is a little more expensive, there are no other problems.

But things like high prices are usually not the problem of the family itself, but the problem of your customers.

It is said, just said, that there are noble men living in the inner city who have visited this place many times. Rounding it up, they are brothers who squandered bodily fluids in the same pit as the noble men.

Regarding these, the pirates and underground forces who have lived here for a long time are all familiar with it.

Many people know that the boss doesn't care about business, he only cares about not letting people break the rules. For example, there can't be fighting in the tavern, and the women in the tavern can't use force, let alone those with unknown origins and those who are unwilling to work in this industry. woman.

But precisely because of this, business here is booming.

This is actually a very normal and reasonable situation. Although the pirates are the most unruly group of people besides the Celestial Dragons, they themselves also long for such a place that respects rules.

It may sound contradictory, but it is actually quite understandable. After all, plundering at sea depends on one's own methods. When you come to land, you naturally don't want to engage in intrigues all the time. If you are not careful, you may even get involved in your life.

And if such a powerful enough person sets up such rules so that pirates can enjoy themselves unscrupulously, they will naturally be very popular.

It's a pity that there is no casino here, otherwise the popularity would be even higher.

Dorek appeared in the tavern on time at night. He seemed to be very calm. Anyone who saw him like this would not believe that he had a devil fruit. After all, if he had this thing, he would have died early. Just eat it, or just run away.

As for why it is certain that Dolek did not eat the Devil Fruit, it is actually very simple. When Dolek himself refuted the rumors, he used sea water.

Even so, there are still some unknown lights hidden in the eyes of many people secretly looking at Dolek.

Dorek knew this very well, but remained unmoved.

He led two people straight to the stage and shouted: "Isn't Lord Spark here today?"

The bartender at the bar is already familiar with Dolek. After all, he is the most generous spender these days. He can receive a lot of commission from it, so he replied: "Sir Buck went out for something, and he will not be back until about an hour."

.If something happens to you, I can wait for the master to come back and tell him."

"It's okay, it's okay." Dolek shook his head, "It's the same as before. Also, tell Miss Chris that I will go find her after I finish drinking and ask her to give me some time."

As he spoke, he put one hand on the bar and slowly pushed the banknotes over.

The bartender naturally collected the money, which was one of the reasons why he had a good attitude toward Dolek. He spent money generously and tipped generously.

Who would refuse to be kinder to such a person?

"You are not very lucky today. Miss Chris may not have time tonight, but today there is a new Miss Miff. She used to be from a good family. For some reasons, she chose to work part-time in this industry. She has not received guests yet.

Man, you made a profit today."

"Oh? Is there such a good thing?" Dolek's eyes brightened. Although Liangjia was not skilled in skills, he was more popular than professionals because of his attractive temperament and status.

However, Dolek faintly heard some jealousy in the bartender's tone, and couldn't help but ask: "Supposedly, such a person should not be short of customers. Is there any other secret?" As he spoke, another banknote came out.

He handed it to the bartender calmly.

"This Miss Miff has a beautiful figure and appearance, but the corresponding price is also very high. Not everyone is willing to pay this money."

Dolek understood immediately. It was obvious that the bartender also coveted Miss Miff, but due to the price, he probably didn't succeed, so he felt unhappy.

Dolek's net worth is naturally not comparable to that of a small bartender. Just because he can't afford it doesn't mean he can't afford it himself. The bartender piqued his interest: "Don't worry, money is not a problem. Tell that Miss Miff, I

Will find her soon."

After saying that, he led his two men to an empty table and sat down, ignoring the complicated look in the bartender's eyes.

In fact, the waitresses in the tavern, if the conditions are right, can take them upstairs or to other hotels after they get off work.

But most of the time, the main job of the waiters here is in the pub, and they only make extra money occasionally.

Of course, if you are very handsome, you can go whore for free, or even be cheated on, but it is a pity that there are too few such people among pirates.

The time of joy is always short. Dolek quickly left the wine table and turned towards the side door, from where he could go to the more joyful place upstairs.

The bartender was busy when his vision suddenly dimmed. He looked up and saw a man with a bald head and tattoos and a tough air. He quickly said respectfully: "Boss, you are back."

"Well, pour me a glass of wine." The man sat at the bar, "Do you have anything to do today?"

Another bartender quickly poured a glass of wine and brought it over, placing it in front of Spark. The bartender just now said: "That Dolek is here again. He just went upstairs to find Miss Miff.

"

Sparky stared at the bartender and said calmly: "This is just a trivial matter. Dolek is a smart man. A fool will not survive long in this sea. Do you understand?"

The bartender suddenly broke out in cold sweat, and his hand when pouring the wine was shaking a little, and said: "I'm sorry, Boss, I..."

"No one should be stupid enough to cause trouble here, and there won't be much problem if they come into contact, so..." Sparky picked up the wine glass and took a sip gently, "If this doesn't happen next time, you will

No need to come again.”

"Yes, Lord Spark!" The bartender's back was soaked with sweat and he almost collapsed.

He knew that there was something wrong with the woman named Mifu, and he knew this when she proposed to get close to Dolek, but she was so tempting that he couldn't control it, so he had to do it.

But as Spark said, no one dares to cause trouble here, and Lord Spark is relatively tolerant of people close to him. This is the reason for his boldness. Otherwise, he would not dare to do it even if he is tempted.

This kind of thing, I don't even know how to die.

At this time, two people in fancy clothes walked up to the bar. Especially the leading man, who was wearing sunglasses in the room at night, looked like he wanted to be punched.

Another boy is more funny, with a nose that is different from ordinary people and looks like a red ball.

The two of them were sitting at the bar. The man wearing sunglasses did not order a drink first, but tilted his head and spoke to Sparky next to him, as if his tone was very familiar: "Tsk, tsk, you have the same style as before, Jabba.

The prestige is still the same as before. I’m afraid this little brother will be scared to death by you.”

His tone was frivolous and joking, and even his expression was the same, which horrified the bartender opposite.

He simply couldn't believe that in a place like this, someone would dare to speak like this to his boss. You should know that anyone who dares to offend his boss will not end well.

Lord Spark is very generous to those close to him, but that does not mean he is also kind to strangers. In the eyes of the bartender, this is simply asking for death.

But the beeping man opposite didn't realize this yet. He turned around and asked the young red-nosed man next to him: "You think so, Bucky?"

Sparky suddenly turned his head and looked at the two men who suddenly appeared. His brows furrowed. His expression did not look angry, but looked like a look that the bartender was not familiar with.

"You are busy with your business, this is my old friend, don't worry about this."

Spark waved the bartender to leave and go about his work, then turned to look at Allen, "I had a hunch from the time I heard the news about your coming to Beihai. With your ability, you will definitely be able to get the news about me, and even more

You were able to find me, but I didn't expect you to be so quick, and I didn't expect that the red-nosed kid who was once the most enthusiastic about treasure hunting would actually follow you and become a navy.

We haven't seen each other for more than ten years, time flies so fast."
