"When our ancestors came to this island, it was already perfected. If we continue to do business with those materials, we will definitely have conflicts with others. Our strength is very weak, so we chose these products that seem to have very little profit.”
"When the Scouts saw that we didn't snatch these materials and only sold some daily necessities, not only did they not stop us, but they also helped us a lot.”
"Our ancestor's initial goal was only to use these things to gain a foothold on Tree Crown Island. In the end, it would still involve materials. After all, that was a big business that made money. A month's income could be comparable to someone else's annual income.”
"What he didn't expect was that this seemingly low-profit product would end up with such amazing profits. Later on, many material merchants went bankrupt due to various reasons. At that time, the ancestors also extinguished their thoughts of continuing to enter the material industry and focused on managing this daily necessities.”
As they walked, Gru introduced some things about their family to Tidas. However, he didn't understand why he had to tell a stranger such a thing.
Gru wiped the sweat from his face with a scarf." Actually, these are not secrets. After staying on Canopy Island for a while, you will know some information about our family.”
"Back then, those material merchants were jealous of our profits and wanted to boycott us. However, they failed in the end," Gru continued to discuss with Tidas.
He was the one talking, and Tidas was listening!
Now, Tidas had a bad feeling in his heart. It seemed that buying books this time was a wrong decision. Walking on the path between the trees, the people they met greeted Gru. They were the servants here.
In Tidas's perception, the strength of the people inside was very good. They were even stronger than those people who were secretly protecting Ge Lu. One or two of them had extremely powerful auras. From the moment they entered the entire manor, their gazes had never left Tidas.
Tidas pretended not to see it. In any case, even if they attacked together, it would not be enough for him to kill. Now that he could listen to Gru talk about the past in the manor, he could be considered to be bold.
"Failed? "Logically speaking, even if you have a firm foothold here, your foundation should not be comparable to those deep-rooted material merchants, right?" Tidas asked casually.
"Indeed, we can't compare. If we're talking about the size of the business and the connections, we really can't compare. However, our top-notch strength is something they can't compare to. I believe that people like you should know that in this sea, numbers are meaningless to some people.”
Ge Lu said this and looked at Tidas with a deeper meaning.
" Master, which room are you staying in today?" A person who looked like a butler walked over and asked Gru.
" Let's stay in the central building today. There's a complete library over there, and there are things that this young friend needs." Gru narrowed his eyes and said with a smile. He didn't put on airs like a big boss at all.
The butler glanced at Tidas and walked to the center of the manor.
"Please forgive me, young friend. I am in charge of 50% of the daily necessities on the entire island, which makes many ambitious people jealous. Therefore, I encounter assassinations every month.”
"And I have never rested in the same room for two consecutive days. Sometimes, I even change rooms to rest in the middle of the night."
Following Ge Lu's introduction, Tidas became even more confused. Although Canopy Island was not small, 90% of the island was planted with all kinds of trees.
Therefore, there were very few places with people. Even if he occupied the fifth floor of the living resources channel on Tree Crown Island, he should not be so careful.
Another point was that their top-notch combat strength was the kind that could fight an entire country alone. It was impossible for them to be so weak now.
"Little friend, please!" Gru still maintained his unique smile, as if this could bring good feelings to others!
Unfortunately, Tidas always understood one thing. Those with narrow eyes were all monsters!
A large castle that looked like a medieval European castle came into sight. At this moment, the castle's door was already open. Rows of servants filed out from the door and lined up on both sides, gesturing for them to enter.
There were two people standing beside Ge Lu at this moment. One of them was a burly man, three meters tall, with bulging muscles. His entire body exuded a reckless aura.
The other was less than two meters tall. He was thin and wore sportswear, giving off the feeling of a big brother next door. However, in Tidas's eyes, he was even stronger than that burly man.
At this moment, Tidas still could not see that there was a problem. Then his intelligence could also be rubbed on the ground.
"Mr. Gru, I'm only buying some nautical books. There shouldn't be a need to be so grand, right?" Tidas narrowed his eyes and a dangerous glint flashed across them.
At that moment, the two of them stood in front of Ge Lu in unison, separated between the two of them. The two pairs of eyes stared fixedly at Tidas, as if as long as he did anything wrong, they would erupt with a thunder-like attack.
"Matt, Emma, please leave. I invited young friend Tidas over."
As soon as Gru finished speaking, the two of them retreated behind Gru without hesitation.
Seeing this scene, Tidas sighed to himself. What a strong control. These experts were actually so obedient to an ordinary person like Ge Lu!
" I believe that with young friend Tidas's strength, he shouldn't be afraid of this situation," Ge Lu said with great confidence.
"I'm really a little scared. Goodbye." After saying that, Tidas left, leaving behind a dashing back.
Even the knowledgeable Gru was confused by Tidas. What kind of trick was this? Shouldn't he laugh confidently and walk in?
This was different from the experts he knew! He was indeed worthy of being suspected to be the successor of the Golden Lion. He was able to become a Great Sword Hero at such a young age and was comparable to an emperor!
What a strange personality!
"Little friend, please wait!" Gru saw Tidas's retreating back and could no longer maintain that smiling expression.
Tidas was already the strongest person he could come into contact with now. If there was no way to keep him, then the Gru family would really be in danger.
Tidas heard the shout behind him and did not stop. Do you think I'm some random cat or dog? Someone you can stop whenever you want?
Then you're underestimating me, Tidas!
"Mr. Tidas, I just want to ask you for a favor." Seeing that Tidas didn't show any signs of stopping, Ge Lu quickly revealed his purpose.
When Tidas heard this, he did not stop. He even wanted to leave with a shave. Now, he only wanted to leave this manor as soon as possible and enjoy the most beautiful scenery on this island. Wasn't this what he went out to sea for?
"Mr. Tidas, as long as you help me, I can pay you a Demon Fruit as compensation!”
Hearing this, Tidas, who was about to use the shaving technique, stopped in his tracks and stood on the spot!
It seemed that it was not impossible to just listen to the request!
