Selling Pokémon from Pirates

Chapter 218 The Purpose of the Vinsmoke Family

Sea restaurant Bharati, in a luxurious box.

Sitting on a luxurious chair, Sanji stared at the black pot in his hand with his pupils locked.

Although there are thousands of reasons telling him that he should not touch this thing that does not belong to him.

But his hands were not controlled by the brain, and he held the jar tightly in his hands.

"Vinsmoke..."

Sanji sighed suddenly, then looked up to the other side of the dining table.

Over there, the old man Zeff was chatting and laughing with his older sister Reiju, and they had a good chat. Now they have talked about the scandal of being slapped in the face by a fish when he killed a fish for the first time.

It made Reiju cover her mouth from time to time, laughing like a silver bell.

"Hey, how long are you going to talk about!?"

Finally, the unbearable Sanji broke out, and interrupted the conversation between the two before Zeff told the embarrassing story of himself trying to sneak into the women's bathhouse with the barrel on his head.

"Ok?"

Zeff and Reiju looked over at the same time.

I saw Sanji stand up slowly, the palm of the jar holding the jar kept trembling, but he still gave Reiju the order to evict the guest.

"Since... Now that the things have been delivered, Reiju, shouldn't you also leave here?"

"Don't you still have many battles to fight and many places to destroy in Beihai?"

At this moment, Sanji's tone is no longer as stubborn and repulsive as before.

After all, he was short-handed, and after accepting [Invisible Black], he was really embarrassed to continue talking to Reiju in a cold tone.

However, facing Sanji's questioning, Reiju suddenly pursed her lips and smiled.

"Go back? Why go back?"

"Just now, my lord father specially sent an order to let me stay in Donghai for a while and wait for them to come."

"What did you say!?"

Sanji stood up suddenly, his expression instantly became extremely dignified, and then a terrible light burst out from his eyes, and he shouted excitedly:
"That guy is coming to Donghai? What is he doing here!?"

It's not that Sanji is too sensitive.

In his short childhood memories, he only remembers that the Vinsmoke family is either at war or on the way to war.

Influenced by the fairy tales of Beihai, in the cognition of Beihai people, "Vinsmoke" is equivalent to the little monster in Ultraman, which will only bring pain to people.

This is especially evident in Sanji, who was cruelly treated in Vinsmoke when he was a child.

Even though he already has good strength now, affected by the shadow of his childhood, he will still subconsciously feel afraid of Vinsmoke.

Tetsuo saw that Sanji was not in the right state, so he quickly waved his hand to interrupt:
"Hey, Sanji."

Although I don't know what happened in Sanji's past, Tetsuo who raised Sanji can clearly perceive that Sanji doesn't have much malice towards Reiju, who claims to be Sanji's sister.

This is also the main reason why Tetsuo let Reiju and Sanji share the table.

And through the conversation and temptation just now, he can also clearly perceive that Reiju is actually Sanji who cares a lot.

There may be a lot of hidden secrets and complicated reasons here, but at least, Reiju in front of him will definitely not be disadvantageous to Sanji.

Under Zeff's eyes, Sanji's excited mood gradually calmed down, and he sat down slowly, but his eyes were still fixed on Reiju.

He didn't want his current life to be disturbed by that family.

When the necessary moment came, even if it was the battle suit jar in his hand, he... he also... it's not that he couldn't consider throwing it away.

Seeing Sanji's extreme reaction, Reiju's eyes suddenly flashed a color of self-blame.

At this moment, she already understood that it was impossible for Sanji to reconcile with the Vinsmoke family no matter what.

After a long sigh in her heart, Reiju's face returned to a slightly flirtatious state again, and said with a light smile:
"Who knows."

"You know, what Father does, he never explains to us. We just need to do what he asks, and that's it."

"Maybe he is looking for a dimensional merchant in the East China Sea to make a deal, or maybe he has some other purpose."

"Another purpose!?" Sanji hesitated.

At this time, Reiju lowered her head, her face sank, the shadow of bangs covered her eyes, and reminded:

"Though it's just my guess."

"But I think that the real purpose of Father's coming to Donghai is probably..."

"For the essence of life!?"

"Life Essence!?" Sanji was taken aback for a moment.

Reiju continued: "I think you should know how obsessed and crazy Father is about his research."

"He has been working hard to build the strongest life all his life."

"I believe that if Father sees the effect of the essence of life, he will never let it go!"

"A kind of energy that can not only increase lifespan, but also enhance strength, and even increase talent. This is simply what my father has been looking for all his life!"

Because of her emotions, Reiju, who was brought by Gaji's side since she was a child to manage the important affairs of the Germa 66 Kingdom, can be said to be the existence who knows Gaji best in this world!
She had this premonition when she saw Lin Luo showing the magical energy of life essence at the awards ceremony.

And just yesterday, at the moment when the closing ceremony of the Pokémon League Conference ended, Reiju received a notice from Gaji as expected, asking her to wait for them in the East China Sea, and inquire about the life essence by the way.

As for Sanji, after listening to Reiju's explanation, he also instantly understood how attractive the essence of life is to Gaji, a research madman.

only……

"Even if that old bastard wants the essence of life, what is he doing in the East China Sea? Does he still plan to snatch it from the dimensional merchant!?"

Sanji asked suspiciously.

Although Gaji is an idiot dictator and mentally retarded researcher in Sanji's mind, no matter what, Gaji shouldn't be so stupid as to rob a dimensional businessman, right?

Facing Sanji's question, Reiju shook her head slightly again, and said with a smile:
"How is it possible? Do you really think of Father as an idiot?"

"Besides, in today's sea, the essence of life is not only owned by the dimensional merchant..."

After the words fell, Reiju's gaze at Sanji became condensed again.

"what?"

After receiving Reiju's explanation, Sanji was taken aback again.

Suddenly, he turned his head as if thinking of something, and looked towards the hall through the small window of the box.

There, Sauron and his party, who had just finished eating, were packing up their equipment and preparing to leave.

Sanji murmured suddenly: "That bastard, isn't he trying to grab the life essence from Chlorella's head?"

And hearing the first three words of green algae, Reiju also immediately realized that Sanji had already guessed everything.

Although she didn't know why Sanji called Zoro "green algae head", it was quite appropriate.

Reiju nodded slightly, approving Sanji's guess.

But in the next moment, laughter mixed with endless sarcasm suddenly sounded in the box.

"Hahahahaha..."

Sauron, who had already walked to the door, heard the laughter, and immediately buckled his ears unhappily.

"What an ugly laugh."

After finishing speaking, he forcibly turned around before Johnny and Joseph.

"Brother Sauron, the direction of the gate is here, and the toilet is over there."

God knows how someone is going to go out, and has already stood at the door, but still walks in other directions.

Fortunately, the group of four following Sauron was used to this.

Now they formed a square, holding Sauron firmly in the middle, and if there was anything wrong with him, someone would immediately correct him.

"........."

……

……

Inside the box.

Sanji slowly picked up the red wine glass in front of him, shook it gracefully for a moment like a gentleman, and then poured the red wine into his mouth.

The smile on his face was still so full, as if something very interesting was about to happen.

Sanji laughed out of the blue, but Reiju was taken aback for a while.

Could it be that Zoro is Sanji's enemy?

Otherwise, why would Sanji laugh like this when he heard that the Vinsmoke family was going to trouble Sauron?

Wouldn't it be because of losing to Sauron that the two became enemies?Is Sanji's belly really that small?
Countless questions flashed in Reiju's mind, it can be seen that Sanji had no intention of answering at all, and she didn't know how to ask.

Only Sanji, who was sipping the red wine carefully, hoped that the time would pass quickly.

Do not misunderstand.

He wouldn't want to see Sauron be sanctioned by the Vinsmoke family just because he didn't deal with Sauron.

Quite the opposite is...

Sanji, who was defeated by Sauron, knows the strength of Sauron better than anyone else!
He didn't believe that a mere Vinsmoke family could solve an existence like Sauron.

At this moment, Sanji couldn't wait to see the news that the Vinsmoke family was defeated by Sauron!

of course……

Even for the sake of [Invisible Black] in his hand, he still has to remind Reiju and Sauron that she can't just be Sauron's dead soul inexplicably.

……

……

Time passed slowly.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

Tenjin Island once again restored its previous calm.

Even some trainers who plan to spend points to practice here have given themselves a vacation, and are planning to take a good rest during the days after the conference.

And on this day, the same must-read information appeared on all the mobile phones of Pirate World at the same time.

The content of the information is the detailed regulations of the second Pokémon League Conference that Lin Luo had shown Doflamingo before.

The content is not different from the first session.

The only change is that the number of Pokémon that can be used in the second Pokémon League Conference battle has changed from one to two.

Although this new rule has sparked quite a wave of discussions among the trainers, the second Pokémon League convention is after all a year away...

Now that the first Pokémon League conference has just ended, everyone's focus is still on the various eye-catching events that broke out in the conference.

As a result, not many people cared about the second conference, and there were not many trainers with Rotom mobile phones, so there was no big news.

however……

What these trainers didn't notice was that in the information of the mall on the mobile phone Rotom, a brand new product called [New Bond Evolution] was quietly put on the shelves, hidden among thousands of products.

……

……

Time passed quickly again, and another month passed.

Maybe it was the Pokémon League Conference that had brought too much impact to the world, so that for a whole month, the whole world became extremely silent, preparing to adapt to this new era called [Pokémon].

And a month later, some guys who were unwilling to be lonely finally started to act again.

……

……

"Goodbye, Mr. Zoro! I wish you all the best!"

"If it goes well, please come back as soon as possible to start our plan."

At the port of the Coster Kingdom, King Lauren waved his arms and waved goodbye to the cargo ship that was traveling.

At the rail of the cargo ship, Sauron also held a red wine bottle in his hand, and responded to Lauren happily and excitedly.

"Don't worry! I will definitely be back in a short time! This time, thank you so much!!!"

Sauron's tone was full of gratitude to Lauren.

Because this cargo ship is loaded with nothing else...

It's all kinds of gold, silver and jewelry worth a full 50 billion Baileys! ! !

To be honest, before coming to Coaster, even Sauron, who was quite optimistic about Lauren's plan, never thought that Lauren would have such courage...

I didn't even expect that I had such a great charm!
In order to invite Sauron to join and work together, Lauren directly threw out a joining fee of 50 billion Baileys!
To be honest, with Sauron's current strength, it's not that he doesn't deserve such a high price.

however……

After all, this is not the new world, but the East China Sea, which has the title of the weakest sea.

Here, it has been difficult to produce a pirate with a bounty exceeding 3000W Bailey for several years.

Using 50 billion Baileys in exchange for the joining of a strong player may seem unreasonable to many Donghai people.

But Lauren just broke this routine.

Because he knew Sauron was worth the price!

If Sauron arrives in the New World, with his strength, it is estimated that many people will line up to get 50 billion Baileys and ask Sauron to join.

and so……

Even if he and Sauron are just a cooperative relationship, even if the money is spent, Sauron will not listen to him...

But Lauren did it anyway!
After experiencing the Pokémon League Conference, he realized more deeply how much an excellent trainer has an impact on Pokémon.

In order to gain a firm foothold in the next world, he had to pay this money.

What's more, with the current economic conditions of the Coster Kingdom, 50 billion Baileys are only a matter of three or four months, which is harmless.

Seeing Sauron's cargo ship drifting away, Lauren at the port had a triumphant smile on his face.

He may be the only king in the world who spends money so happily.

"Go, let's go back!"

……

……

at the same time.

Sauron's cargo ship.

"Oh my god!!! Is this... this... is this true!?"

Alrita opened her eyes wide, looking in disbelief at the gold, silver and jewelry scattered throughout the warehouse.

She had only seen the scene in front of her occasionally in her dreams.

The bright light reflected under the light almost blinded her eyes.

And at Alrita's side, Kebi also opened his mouth wide open, as if his chin had been separated from his face.

The two of them just stood there stupidly, not daring to move at all, as if they had been immobilized by magic.

Until Sauron returned to the cabin from the deck, the two of them stood there motionless like sculptures.

"Hey, what are you two doing?"

Zoro, who was in a good mood, asked with a smile while drinking wine.

"Master Sauron... this... this..."

Hearing Sauron's voice, Kebi was startled, and immediately pointed at the treasure in front of him, stuttering and not knowing what to say.

Because Sauron brought Johnny and Joseph to talk with Lauren, so the two of them just knew what was on the ship.

However, Sauron was not surprised by the performance of the two of them. After all, Johnny and Joseph were paralyzed for a long time in front of the treasury of the Coster Kingdom.

Zoro ignored the demented two and walked straight to the treasure.

When you take it out, you will find a large handful of well-made gold coins.

Wiping off the wine at the corner of his mouth, Sauron looked deeply at the gold coin in his hand and murmured:
"This time, I can finally resurrect you, Kuina."
