"When the Seven Warlords of the Sea get paid salaries?" Kai suddenly blurted out this sentence.
The vast deck fell into an inexplicable dead silence.
Some nearly couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of old blood.
In their eyes, those who become Seven Warlords are ruthless pirates.
As ordinary pirates, their concept of Beli was always to rob if they didn't have enough.
Seeing it, they should just rob it!
But the one in front of them now even made the squad captain wary.
A powerful figure courted by the three great powers, when opening his mouth, disregarded everything and only lamented whether the Seven Warlords received salaries.
This way of thinking was far too unconventional, catching everyone off guard.
However, this couldn't be blamed on Kai.
Kai's character template is based on Saitama, who besides being the strongest who broke his limiter, is set as a law-abiding ordinary citizen.
His main concerns are still having enough to eat and enough money to buy bargains at the supermarket to last until the end of the month.
And then receiving a meager salary as a hero.
In the original story, Kai never saw Saitama robbing money.
Even stealing a penny from a child would cause him guilt.
Who knows, if Saitama had a salary, it might even ruin the realism!
"Haha, you really are interesting, kid." Garp laughed first.
"If you want to become a Seven Warlord, I'll privately have Sengoku get some money for you as your salary."
"But looking at you, you really don't seem like a pirate. I'll convey your answer to Sengoku."
At this, Garp glared at Ace, frustrated, and said: "You brat, behave yourself. If you fall into our Navy's hands, I won't show any favoritism."
"Whitebeard, Red-Haired, you brats, sorry this time for taking the people you wanted. Don't hold a grudge against this old man; I'm just following orders."
"If you want trouble, go find that old Sengoku!"
Leaving these words, Garp didn't hesitate, stepped forward, and directly used Soru, disappearing from the spot.
When he reappeared, he was already dozens of meters away.
Within a few leaps, he was hundreds of meters away.
Seeing this, even Whitebeard and Red-Haired's expressions changed slightly.
As people who lived from the old era to now, they clearly knew just how strong Garp was.
"Alright, since Ace has returned safely, there's no point in me staying any longer." Red-Haired Shanks dusted himself off and broke the silence first.
After glancing at Kai again, he said: "Saitama, if you change your mind and don't want to be a Seven Warlord, you can come find me."
"I hold parties every day, provide food, money, and distribution..."
"If you come, everyone will welcome you."
Red-Haired Shanks smiled and turned, casually waving his hand.
In full view of everyone, he jumped onto the support ship Red Force.
The big conflict just now had already alerted Ben Beckman and others.
If it weren't for seeing that Red-Haired Shanks was unharmed, they would have already grabbed their weapons and started fighting.
With the two big figures gone, Kai didn't linger either. He grabbed Kouzuki Hiyori's waist, and in full view of everyone, jumped into the water, again using terrifying water-walking to quickly speed away.
For a moment, the huge deck of the Moby Dick fell into an inexplicable dead silence.
"Cough, cough..."
Suddenly, loud coughing broke the silence, instantly triggering everyone's nerves as they all looked at Whitebeard.
"Old man, are you alright?" Ace was the first to come forward.
Before others could ask, Whitebeard, whose face was slightly flushed, waved his hand to interrupt.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. The earlier fight triggered an old injury; a rest will fix it."
"That old Garp still maintains peak physical condition. Looks like this old bone of mine will rest in peace before he dies easily."
At this, Whitebeard's expression darkened slightly: "Speaking of corpses, I almost forgot the purpose of that Skeleton Demon."
"Looks like he's not just a weirdo but also makes strange demands."
Thinking of the negotiation demands Kai just made, Ace's face turned very pale and he lost his composure first.
"Old man, this matter started because of me; let me meet with the Skeleton Demon?"
"Ace, don't be impulsive!" Marco patted Ace's shoulder.
"Not to mention the old man will live long, if the Skeleton Demon really tries anything against him, we definitely won't stand by."
"The Whitebeard Pirates are not to be trifled with, even if it means starting a full-scale war!"
As soon as these words dropped, the pirates present all voiced their agreement.
"Captain Marco is right. No matter what the Skeleton Demon is, if anyone dares to touch the old man, we'll fight to the death!"
"If he wants to touch the old man, he'll have to step over our corpses first!"
"..."
Seeing the suddenly lively scene, Whitebeard smiled contentedly and shook his head.
However, regarding why the Skeleton Demon was fixated on using his corpse as a bargaining chip, Whitebeard instinctively remained cautious.
After all, in this sea, strange things are not uncommon.
Meanwhile, in the Flower Capital of Wano Country, the huge palace was no longer as lively as usual.
Many places still hung white cloth.
"Wuwu~ My little Murasaki, damn Kouzaburou, why didn't you stop those villains from pushing Murasaki into the sea!"
Orochi, dressed in plain clothes, holding tissues, was crying and sniffling, accusing while sitting beside the seemingly still half-asleep Kouzaburou.
Kouzaburou always wore a smile.
Facing Orochi's endless accusations, Kouzaburou didn't care at all.
In his eyes, as long as Kouzuki Hiyori could fake her death safely and leave Wano Country, minimizing the impact on their plan was enough.
Whether or not they could see the Skeleton Demon was up to fate.
"Kouzaburou, I'm talking to you. Can't you respond?" Orochi blew his nose forcefully and shouted.
But before Kouzaburou could speak, a huge shadow descended from the sky, instantly covering the entire courtyard.
Before they could react, the heavy object landed with a roaring sound that echoed through the heavens.
Bang!
A huge figure, reeking of strong alcohol, descended from the sky.
He heavily smashed onto the singer stage specially built for Kouzuki Hiyori.
Directly crushing it.
The singers and samurai guarding nearby were blown over by the shockwave.
A voice full of strong alcohol smell suddenly sounded.
"Orochi, I found your little Murasaki!"
