A captain who is willing to protect the crew from escaping, rather than escaping first, is already a qualified captain.

But Whitebeard still admires such a newcomer.

"You little devil, you are so arrogant!"

"Uhhhhh!" Ace roared, burning with flames all over his body, and pounced on the white beard like a moth.

It's so pleasant, the white beard smiled slightly.

Dong!

Just a punch, the cracked air spread to Ace, and the burning flames came to an abrupt end and fell like a meteor.

...

East China Sea.

The night after Eddie's funeral.

"Isn't there any movement yet?"

Saka came back and handed the wine and food to Zoro.

Zoro said: "No!"

Saka and Zoro have been staying outside the manor mansion for three days, but in these three days, they have not gained much.

Zoro opened the bottle plug, took a sip and said, "Instead of waiting like this, it's better to go in and grab the woman and ask clearly."

Saka thought for a while and said, "Wait for another night, if the other party has not moved yet, he can only do this."

In the second half of the night, Saka, who was sleepy, glanced at the manor and suddenly saw a figure coming out of the manor.

"There's some movement!" Saka hammered Zoro.

Zoro opened his eyes and looked over.

"Is it her?"

Zoro took advantage of the moonlight, took a closer look, nodded and said, "It's her!"

The two of them quickly followed the figure, and the back of the island that had been coming, watching the figure jumping down the reefs by the sea.

Following the reef and looking down, Saka was surprised and said, "Hmm? It's gone!"

"Look there, it seems there is an entrance!" Zoro pointed to the side of the reef.

Zoro and Saka jumped down the reef, and they saw a very hidden hole there. The entrance was very narrow and the more they went in, the wider it became, as if it was a natural cave eroded by sea water.

It was dark inside the cave and it was difficult to see clearly what was happening inside, so Saka and Zoro walked carefully.

"Do you smell anything?" Saka suddenly said.

"smell?"

"It seems to be the smell of gunpowder!"

As soon as Saka finished speaking, he heard a "boom" from behind, and the two people who were walking forward were stunned.

Rumble!

The cave fell from time to time, and it took a while before it stopped.

"No, is this a trap!"

Saka and Zoro immediately walked back. Not long after, they saw the way they came, blocked by the slippery rocks.

"It's so stupid to learn to follow people without training!" Outside the hole, a figure took a mask, exposed a face with two long beards, and sneered.

Lillian stood beside him and said, "These two are not worth worrying about. The group of people from the East China Shipping Company are very suspicious of me."

"So what, they have no evidence, and not to mention that our goal is not Eddie's property."

The man said: "Everything goes according to plan, don't cause trouble."

"Ha, Gabra, don't think you are a member of CP9, you can point fingers. What should I do, you don't need to order me! Don't forget that our CP0 is the highest organization of Cipher Pol." Lillian said coldly.

Haha, why are you crazy? You are just a non-staff member.

Gabra sneered in his heart, hugged his arms, shrugged and said, "I'm just worried that you are eager to take revenge, which will lead to the failure of our mission."

"You are the ones who will cause the mission to fail? They actually exposed their whereabouts during the mission, which forced us to plan in advance. It's so stupid!" Lillian said.

Gabra's forehead veins hopped and said, "Accident, that's an accident!"

"I hope this accident will not happen again." Lillian snorted coldly, jumped up, and landed lightly and sensitively on the reef. Several rises and falls disappeared.

"snort!"

Gabra glanced at the sealed hole, jumped onto the reef, and disappeared.

After a while, Gabra returned to the reef and saw that the entrance of the cave was still sealed. He patrolled around him for a while before turning around and leaving.

A moment later, Gabra appeared again, his eyes observing around with a cunning look, and said coldly: "Come out, don't think I don't know where you are!"

The sea breeze blew, and the leaves rustled.

"Hmm? Is it really my illusion?" Gabra squeezed his beard and shook his head.

early morning.

Kwinston and others sat together for breakfast.

"Now the funeral is also done, so it's time to talk to Mrs. Lillian about the shares in Eddie," said a senior executive.

"Yes, it's not a big deal to drag it all the time!"

As we all know, after the Arkham Chamber of Commerce reorganized the Arkham Group, the previous partners either liquidated or exchanged their assets for shares. Among them, Donghai Shipping Company, each partner had the highest shareholding ratio among all companies, because these partners had ships in their hands and had a certain influence locally.

This is true for K Winston, Eddie, and Longbottom, their shares in the company occupy a large part of their net worth.

Eddie's 900 million Bailey's net worth and shares account for at least 700 million Bailey, which is definitely a lot of money.

Seeing that everyone was like this, Kwinston nodded and said, "It's time to talk."

He glanced at Charles, who was almost asleep even after breakfast, and said, "What have you found?"

Shire opened his eyes halfway, yawned, and said, "No."

"If there is no definite evidence, it is legitimate to inherit Eddie's property and shares as Eddie's only relative. As soon as her husband died, we all doubted it, as if we wanted to swallow other people's property. If it spread, it would be a joke!" Kwinston smiled and glanced at everyone at the dining table.

"Eddie is also a veteran of the company and has a good relationship with us. If he leaves, we must take care of it."

"Yes! You can't let outsiders laugh at it."

Everyone nodded with a smile.

At this moment, the sound of clear footsteps sounded, and everyone looked at the door. Lillian, wearing a thin black gauze dress and a lace gauze hat, walked in, making everyone's eyes lit up.

Lillian was already beautiful, and her skin was vaguely visible, which added a mysterious temptation to her. She had a light makeup on her face and a sad look, which made her feel pity for her.

She gracefully bowed to everyone, and then said, "Now, it is rumored on the island that I colluded with the housekeeper and killed Eddie. I think it is not surprising that everyone has such an idea. People are always full of prejudice."

Kwinston touched his nose.

"Actually, Eddie and I truly love each other. To me, money is something outside of my body. To prove this, I hope Mr. Cwinston will be a witness to everyone here. I will not take any money from Eddie's assets. I will use them to set up a charitable foundation to rescue children who have lost their parents and have no support. I think this is what Eddie hopes! He always wanted a child during his lifetime, but a pity..." Speaking of this, Lillian's tears rolled out from his charming blue eyes.

At the dining table, everyone opened their eyes wide and looked at Lillian as if they had seen her for the first time. Lillian's decision was definitely beyond everyone's expectations. Even K Winston opened his mouth slightly. Lillian's intention was to donate all Eddie's assets!

Charles yawned, half-closed his eyes, looking at the figure who seemed too sad and left with his face, muttering: "Tsk tsk, your butt is so tilted!"

In a blink of an eye, June.

Paradise Island.

Under the bright sunshine, fish people come and go, working hard. In addition to fish people, many human tourists can be seen on the streets.

Since the opening of the Western Front Sea Train, Paradise Island has become a new tourist destination in the East China Sea and is regarded by tourists as a must-visit place to visit Count Arkham.

Recently, Paradise Island has another "attraction" that attracts tourists. A newly opened fishman cafe near Fountain Square. The waiters are all beautiful mermaids, which is simply a man’s dream!

Even if a cup of coffee is a full 100,000 Bailey, there are still many men who are willing to spend a 100,000 Bailey to drink a cup of coffee in the cafe. If a mermaid waiter says a few words to him, it will be enough for three years to remember!

Sanji is one of these men!

"Hey, Sanji, it's time to leave!" Paddy, who looked vicious, walked into the restaurant and shouted at Sanji who was chatting with a mermaid sister.

"Wait a little longer!" Sanji said dissatisfied.

"What are you waiting for? The restaurant is still waiting for our ingredients! You guy!" Padie used his thick arms to pick up Sanji and dragged him out of the cafe.

"Let me go, Paddy, let me go!"

The mermaid looked at her smile, waved her hand and said, "Goodbye, gentleman brother!"

"goodbye!"

Sanji, who had already left the door, stretched in, smiled, and was then pulled out by Paddy.

"I really don't know what mermaids look good. Sanji, you have used all the pocket money you have saved to drink coffee, right?" Paidi took Sanji to take the Shanghai train.

As a famous top restaurant in the East China Sea, Balati Restaurant will receive some noble guests. Those guests naturally have requirements for ingredients. The fishmen on Paradise Island can tame various delicious fish with their racial advantages. The fresher the ingredients such as seafood are, the better. Paidi and Sanji were responsible for purchasing the ingredients in the restaurant.

Sanji glanced at Paidi and shook his head and said, "How can a guy like you understand the romance of a woman?"
