" Only the victor is righteous…"
Zefa thought back to his words, feeling bitter in his heart.
It was so bitter that he took a sip of wine.
The mellow wine entered his throat, and the aftertaste lingered in his heart. He swallowed it along with the bitterness.
Porusalino's hand froze in mid-air. He realized that he was also bitter. These words were too mature.
The victor was justice.
In that case, there was no distinction between good and evil.
Richard's face changed slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled into a smile." Everyone, you are all caged people, so I can see through you. Let's drink until we're drunk."
People with complicated thoughts liked to drink the most because they could pour out their emotions after getting drunk and temporarily forget about it.
That night, Zefa still cried after Borusalino and Karp left. Only Sharky and Richard saw him.
Mihawk couldn't see it because he was already drunk.
The aged wine was very strong. After it evaporated, it became even more intoxicating.
So Mihawk was a little tipsy from the beginning, and in the end, he was already sleeping on the table.
Richard had a long conversation with Zefa, but by the next day he had forgotten most of the details.
At dawn, Li Qing came in from the door and walked gently to Richard's side.
"Eldest Young Master, everything is ready. We can set off at any time.”
" Okay," Richard left the one million Berries and shouted at the bar," Boss, thank you for your hospitality!"”
" Alla." Xia Qi's face was ruddy. She had just woken up from her sleep, and her hair was messy.
Her face was still very pale. Tao Zilu's alcohol was very strong. After being drunk, her mind would be confused for a long time.
"Are you leaving already? I was planning to discuss business with you.”
"About that, there are only ten jars of Peach Purple Dew. We drank two jars yesterday.”
Richard laughed." Ten jars, 50 million Berri. If you want, 45 million Berri will do, but you have to do me a favor.”
This smile made Xia Qi feel a strong sense of greed.
"Wow, is the starting price really that high…"
Richard didn't look away, showing no sign of relenting.
"Hahaha, alright. Ten jars of Peach Purple Dew, I'll take it.”
Richard smiled and nodded." Thank you for your patronage.”
He knew that Xia Qi would want someone who was more of a rip-off. If it was a rare commodity that could be hoarded, she would naturally have a way to rip off others.
"Mihawk."
"Yes, sir!" Mihawk, who was sleeping, suddenly woke up. His eyes were dazed for a moment. After recognizing his brother's voice, he immediately woke up and stood up.
"Brother, are you leaving?"
"Yes, we'll go back. There are still many things to arrange.”
"Alright."
Mihawk politely bid farewell to Xia Qi and returned to Area 60. Li Qing and the others had already bought all the meat and firewood.
Porusalino had been waiting for a long time, personally escorting Richard back. After all, Richard's words in the tavern yesterday had made his understanding of justice even clearer.
Originally, he only knew how to work and improve. Now…he should be lazy when he should be.
……
Navy headquarters, in the meeting room.
Karp and Zefa, who had been absent the whole day yesterday, were scolded by Sengoku.
"Where did he go?”
"How old are the two of you? You're still so willful.”
Zhan Guo knocked on the table, his expression extremely ugly. Because the two of them had disappeared without a trace, and without reporting to the headquarters, it was as if they had completely evaporated.
As a result, it took a long time for the final order to leave.
"You guys actually went to Chambord Islands? Who did you meet?”
Zhan Guo's expression was a little ugly.
"It's someone important. Don't ask about him, Zhan Guo. After all, you don't know him.”
Karp laughed and scratched the back of his head. He couldn't let Sengoku know about his meeting with Richard. After all, he was one of the commanders in the war.
Perhaps…
Richard would not be pleased.
"In that case, record all of them once."
Zhan Guo's face was ashen. Although he was only a general, he was groomed to be the next marshal, so he was very careful with his words and actions.
He wasn't as lazy as Karp and Zefa.
"What a strange guy. However, the body of the captain of the Jackal Pirates that you handed over yesterday was really strange. Did you guys encounter it when you went to the Chambord Islands?”
"Did you just casually clean it up?"
Zefa was furious when he heard this." You still have the cheek to say that? I want to ask, why aren't the bounties below 50 million honored? Isn't this slapping our navy in the face?”
The purple-haired Zefa was furious. His eyebrows were raised and his expression was fierce.
The might of not killing a general was immediately revealed. Recently, the navy had done too many things that disappointed him. When the disappointment accumulated to a certain point, it was unbearable.
"This matter is the decision of the higher-ups. There aren't many pirates to begin with.”
"Do you think so…"
Zefa smiled bitterly.
He still remembered Richard's words,"Born in sorrow, die in happiness."
