"Hello, hello." A big hand patted Demi's shoulder.
Demetrio held his wine glass and looked at the girl who was pole dancing with her graceful figure. He was still a little delusional. He suddenly felt someone pat him on the shoulder.
Demetrio turned around and saw a burly bald man standing behind him with his right hand on his shoulder. Demetrio was stunned. He looked at the man carefully and realized that he did not know him."What are you doing!"
"Hmm?"
Arida and Allaine turned around when they heard Demi's voice. They saw a skinny guy with a feather-feather-shaped hair and five muscular guys standing behind the three of them. Their faces revealed malicious smiles.
"Haha…it's nothing serious, just getting to know each other.”The bald man revealed a friendly smile and said,
"Uh ~"
Arida and the other two looked at each other as if they had understood something. However, who were they? They were the freest people on the sea-pirates.
"We don't know you, and we don't want to know you.”Arida pursed his lips and said rudely.
"Yes, I don't want to know you." Demetrio also slapped the bald man's hand away with a displeased expression.
Instantly, the bald man's face darkened. He didn't expect this guy in front of him to be so rude.
"These two men…look so familiar! Have I seen it before?" At this moment, when the skinny monkey saw the faces of Arida and Allaine, he felt a sense of familiarity. However, he could not remember where he had seen them before. The only thing he could confirm was that these two men were here for the first time. Otherwise, they would have recognized his boss.
Could he be a new pirate or even a great pirate? He didn't know why he suddenly thought so, but Skinny Monkey's heart still skipped a beat. He looked at Arida's expressionless face and felt an inexplicable chill in his heart.
"You are too arrogant."
The bald man's face darkened and he did not say anything. However, a muscular man with a flat face beside him was furious. He pointed at Arida and said angrily,"I'll teach you a lesson.”
After saying that, he clenched his fist and wanted to punch Arida.
"Hey, hey, you're just a hooligan. Do you want to cause trouble?”Allaine said coldly in disdain.
"Hey, think carefully before you attack. Once you punch, it means provocation. Are you ready to fight me?”Arida looked at the guy with a big face and raised his fist. He said calmly,""Also, I hate it when people point fingers at me. If you still want this finger, take it back.”
Instantly, the atmosphere between the two sides turned cold and tense.
"Start a war?" The flat-faced muscular man was a little stunned. He often fought with others or started a war with other gangs, but this man in front of him actually said that he wanted to start a war. This stunned him on the spot.
"Maru, put your hand down." The bald man's pupils suddenly constricted. He reached out to stop his subordinate. He was not stupid. The word 'war' could not be casually said. The person who could decide to start a war had to be at least the number two character in the team. What kind of power did this man in front of him represent?
Gang? Chamber of Commerce? Or…pirates?
"This man…bald, with a scorpion tattoo on his right arm and a thick gold necklace on his neck. Isn't he one of the three bosses of the coastal area, Mungo?”
"How dare that young man talk to Manger like that? Does he still want to get out of here alive?”
"That's not right. These three people are so calm. They're definitely fearless.”
“……”
The guests around Arida and the others also noticed the tense atmosphere between the two parties. These guests were all regular customers of the bar, and many of them were locals. Naturally, they recognized the bald man's identity. Suddenly, the noise around them disappeared, leaving only the whispers and passionate music in the bar.
One of the three bosses of the coastal area, Bald Scorpion Manger. He was violent but not reckless. He was ruthless and had the support of a noble in the central area. He also had a pirate group on the outside. He ruled one-fifth of the coastal area and had hundreds of brothers under him. He especially liked to extort rich foreigners.
"Are you a pirate?" Mungo recalled the origin of Arida's first sentence. It was a famous saying among pirates. It was something that Pirate King Roger had said back then. Although the original words were different, the meaning was the same.
At that time, the original words of One Piece Roger were: Once you shoot, it means that you're provoking me and that you're ready to start a war. Are you sure?
This was what Roger, the Pirate King, said 24 years ago when he faced a great pirate in the New World who had a bounty of 200 million Bailey. The great pirate's answer was," One bullet.
Then, the result was that the great pirate who had a bounty of 200 million Bailey and his seven pirate groups of nearly 10,000 people were all buried in the sea. It could be said that it was a sensation at that time.
Gulp!
"B-Boss, they are pirates. I-I know who he is.”The skinny monkey with the feather-feather hair swallowed a mouthful of saliva with a head full of sweat. His eyes were filled with fear, and his teeth were chattering.
"Oh!" Allaine nodded and looked at the skinny monkey. He turned to look at Arida and said,"Captain, it seems that our bounty has been issued. It's just that we didn't encounter any news birds, so we didn't receive any news.”
"Captain? Who is he?" Mungo was shocked. He did not expect one of the three to be the captain. Moreover, judging from the appearance of the skinny monkey, he might be a pirate.
However, was there such a young pirate in the East China Sea?
"Captain of the Chris Pirates, Golden Hoop-Chris T. Arida. Bounty of 4,000,000 Bailey.”
When Mango saw the golden ring on Arida's ear, his face turned pale. He finally remembered who she was.
"First mate of the Chris Pirates, captain of the second division, blue-haired Gilbert Alline. Bounty of 20 million Bailey.”
When Mango saw Allaine's blue hair, large beads of sweat fell from his forehead, and his face turned even paler. Damn, even the first mate was here.
The few subordinates beside Mango almost went crazy, especially the guy with the flat-faced face who was pointing at Arida. He almost peed his pants. It was too scary.
What was the concept of a 40 million bounty?
Originally, the highest bounty in the entire Eastern Sea was only 23 million Bailey. Most importantly, the bounty was so high for the first time. This was enough to show how dangerous this person was. Even the first bounty of the first mate and the chief commander of the enemy ship exceeded the bounty of the pirates on the 9th level of Eastern Sea.
In the Eastern Sea, a pirate with a bounty of more than ten million was enough to be called a great pirate. This great pirate alone could easily wipe out a group of them.
"Oh, a 40 million bounty! It's actually so high!" Arida was a little surprised, but his vanity was greatly satisfied. He really didn't expect his first bounty to be higher than Luffy's first bounty in the original novel, reaching 40 million Bailey.
Arida had only estimated that it would be 30 million Bailey, and even Allaine's bounty was as high as 20 million. Arida suspected that Oliver had a bounty on him, probably similar to Allaine's.
