Chapter 309: 40 Billion Credited
The two returned to Dragon Island.
Afterward, Jiang Qi Ze announced that the Baroque Pirates had officially merged into the Dragon Flame Pirates.
When the others heard this, they were naturally delighted. The bigger the group, the livelier it would be.
Especially the members of the Baroque Pirates—when they heard that they had become members of the Dragon Flame Pirates, they were overjoyed.
The Dragon Flame Pirates were the second pirate crew on the seas to claim the title of Emperor, with a bounty exceeding 15 billion.
How could they not be happy?
So that very day, they held a banquet on Dragon Island.
…
The next day.
In a cleared-open area.
Jiang Qi Ze sat on a rock, looking at the black dragon in front of him.
At this moment, the black dragon had already awakened. Its pair of golden vertical pupils stared at him intently as powerful dragon might spread outward continuously.
The black dragon had been wrapped several times by a massive iron chain, binding it tightly so that it could not move at all.
"You really can't understand what I'm saying?"
Jiang Qi Ze looked at it with confusion.
Logically, that shouldn't be the case. He possessed the Whisper-Whisper Fruit ability and should be able to communicate with all living beings.
"Two-legged creature, I will tear you apart!"
Suddenly, a hoarse and violent voice rang out.
"So you can speak after all." Jiang Qi Ze smiled.
"It seems you've never seen humans before. I'm curious—were you born like this?"
"Two-legged creature, you had better release me!" The black dragon seemed to have something wrong with its mind. It completely ignored his question and continued roaring.
"It seems your intelligence isn't very high."
Jiang Qi Ze said softly.
But that didn't matter. Once Robin returned, they could contract it.
"I wonder if a strengthened black dragon will be different. I'm looking forward to it a little."
He smiled and quietly waited.
Time passed quickly.
By evening—
"Yah~"
The voice of the Wind God came from high in the sky.
Above them, the Wind God's enormous body descended from the sky, blotting out the sun and stirring up a fierce gale.
Boom!
The Wind God landed beside the black dragon.
Tap!
Robin jumped down from its back.
"Hundred-Round Bloom!"
Her gentle voice sounded.
On the Wind God's back, a massive arm composed of countless jade-like arms grew out, then carried down the large boxes one by one from its back.
"Captain, the 40 billion Beli are all inside these."
Robin walked up to him and said sweetly while looking at him.
"Mm. You've worked hard."
Jiang Qi Ze nodded with a smile.
"It's what I should do," Robin said softly.
He stepped down onto the ground.
Then he walked toward the large boxes.
Each of these boxes was more than one meter tall and two meters long.
There were four such boxes in total.
He opened them all.
Inside were stacks upon stacks of Beli.
Jiang Qi Ze placed his hand on them and silently said in his heart, "Recharge."
Soon, all the Beli inside the four large boxes disappeared.

"Still a little short of 50 billion… but for now I should contract the black dragon first. The bloodline evolution can wait."
Jiang Qi Ze murmured.
