Now that things have come to this, let's eat first.

Thanks to the name of Jesus Bu, Usopp also put down his vigilance against the Straw Hat Pirates. And at Luffy's strong request, he still took everyone to a tavern in the village and started to eat.

"What! My dad is such a powerful pirate?! A bounty of more than 1 billion! Sigh!"

"Oh! Jesus Bu is also very powerful! But Shanks has a bounty of more than 4 billion!"

At the table, Luffy and Usopp chatted happily. Seeing that they were interested, Ji Shengling directly took out the bounty order of the Red Hair Pirates.

This high bounty is something that the pirates in the East China Sea dare not even think about. For a while, even Zoro and Nami felt a little shocked.

Although they had heard Ji Shengling talk about the bounty of the New World a long time ago, they couldn't help but wonder if these bounties were accidentally added with two more zeros when they saw this sky-breaking number with their own eyes.

There is no other way. Although the bounty order is issued uniformly around the world, it is usually only issued for free worldwide when the pirate bounty changes. At other times, the East China Sea will only print the pirate bounty within the East China Sea.

This also makes the bounties of these big pirates very rare in the East China Sea, and many people will not care about them after taking a look. They can't even deal with big pirates with bounties of millions, and these guys with more than 1 billion starting may not come to the East China Sea, so why bother with them?

However, these bounties have further stimulated Zoro's fighting spirit.

"Oh, I have heard about your stories, Usopp, since I was a child, and my ears are almost calloused!"

While Luffy was happy for Shanks, he couldn't help complaining to Usopp.

"Really? Haha..."

Usopp scratched his head embarrassedly, and then seemed to remember something and asked everyone.

"But then again, what exactly do you want to do in this village?"

Seeing Usopp asking, Luffy didn't hide it and told Usopp that they wanted a pirate ship.

"Looking for a pirate ship?"

Usopp heard it and thought about it, then shook his head with everyone in distress.

"But it's a pity that there are no pirate ships in the village to sell to you."

Zoro didn't agree with Usopp's words, looked out the window, and asked calmly.

"But isn't there a big family over there?"

Following Zoro's gaze, Usopp's expression froze instantly.

That family was Kaya's family.

Although these pirates didn't look like bad guys and knew his father, he didn't want Kaya to have any contact with these pirates from the bottom of his heart.

"This... this..."

Usopp was about to send this group of pirates away, but found that Ji Shengling was staring at him, and then spoke indifferently.

"The parents of that family have passed away. Now there is only one daughter named Kaya who has inherited the family business. There are also two housekeepers in the family, named Meli and Crabatel, right."

This...

Usopp saw that Ji Shengling accurately reported the information about Kaya, and suddenly a cold sweat ran down his face. He was about to say that this was all false information, but Ji Shengling interrupted his thoughts again.

"Don't rush to reject us, or even if you reject us, we can still come to you, and your decision will not affect our actions. But we are indeed here with good intentions, so even if you still plan to reject it in the end, before that, I suggest you take a look at this first."

As he said, without waiting for Usopp to refuse, Ji Shengling took out a new bounty order and placed it in front of Usopp.

"This... this is!!!"

Compared to Shanks and Jesus Bu, the amount of this bounty can be said to be less than a fraction, but this bounty target of only 16 million berries made Usopp's eyes widen in horror.

"You are... a liar..."

16 million berries, Captain of the Black Cat Pirates, [Hundred Stratagems] Crowe.

And the face on the bounty order is the face of Kaya's butler, Crabatel.

"So, do you believe Luffy who has a friendship with your father, or do you believe that Kaya's butler is just a person who happens to look like this pirate? Usopp-san, you don't want Miss Kaya to get into trouble, do you?"

Ji Shengling asked with a smile, but the people of the Straw Hat Pirates also noticed that the atmosphere was wrong.

Usopp wanted to say that he didn't believe either side, and now he just wanted to run and confront Crabatel.

Originally, even though the housekeeper repeatedly prevented him from meeting Miss Keya, he still did not hate the housekeeper. He simply felt thatThat was the arrogance of a butler of a wealthy family. But now, when he thought that the butler was actually such a big pirate, he couldn't help but have the idea of ​​protecting Miss Kaya alone.

But Ji Shengling would naturally not let this guy get what he wanted, not to mention that if Usopp ran over on his own, it would be a complete act of suicide. And because of his vigilance against the Straw Hat Pirates at this time, it was difficult for Usopp to accept the help of the Straw Hat Pirates.

Well, when necessary, some necessary means must be used.

After making the decision, Ji Shengling didn't even give Usopp a chance to react, and came to Usopp in a flash. In Usopp's surprised eyes, he stuffed a bottle of powder into his mouth without hesitation.

Usopp retreated in horror, coughing from time to time, obviously choked.

He asked dissatisfiedly.

"You guy... give me... a hot... tongue? Tongue? Tongue ink? Consume! Consume mana! Consume... ah..."

A strong spicy feeling instantly spread over the tip of Usopp's tongue. After a few seconds, his tongue was swollen by almost 2.5 times, and he couldn't say a word.

"Don't worry, this is the famous Kun Island, which produces a lot of chili powder. After eating it, you will just be so spicy that you can't speak for 2.5 hours."

Ji Shengling explained.

"There is no way. This is also for your own good. If you rush up and have a conflict with the butler, it will be more difficult for us to help you. So during this period, we can only trouble you to shut up first."

Hearing Ji Shengling's explanation, Usopp wanted to cry but had no tears, but he had been unable to speak for a long time. At this moment, he felt that the group of people in front of him, especially this man, was an out-and-out demon!

Even the other three members of the Straw Hat Pirates felt a little scared at this time. Ji Shengling looked at Luffy very gently and reminded him softly.

"Luffy, no matter what happens later, try to keep your mouth shut if you can, understand?"

Although Ji Shengling felt that Luffy had no idea what the bounty order he showed Usopp meant, he still had to take precautions just in case.

Even for Luffy, it would not make any difference whether he took precautions or not.

Luffy did not understand what Ji Shengling meant, but he felt that Ji Shengling was very scary at this time, so he subconsciously nodded to indicate that it was okay.

In this way, the group took the hopeless Usopp and set off towards Kaya's mansion.
