Deep in the Island!
At this moment, a large number of pirates had gathered here—every one of them a bachelor, not a single woman among them.
"Brothers! Bring out all the treasures we got from this raid!"
Sitting on a large boulder, Olivfo waved his hand arrogantly as he barked the order.
He was a towering figure with a fat head, large ears, a full beard, and eyes full of cruelty—his appearance was that of a demon, enough to make children cry.
"Yes, Captain Olivfo!"
Everyone immediately got to work, their faces filled with excitement—they were overjoyed.
As pirates, this was their favorite kind of moment.
Amidst the shouts, all the treasures were dumped out.
Gold, silver, jewels, luxurious fabrics, jade, pearls...
Piled up into a small mountain, shimmering with multicolored brilliance under the sunlight.
Blinding!
"This haul looks pretty good this time, hahaha..."
Olivfo threw his head back and laughed wildly, full of arrogance. "Sort the treasure out, see if there's anything valuable."
Soon, bursts of laughter came from below.
"Wow, this gold is heavy!"
"This pearl must be worth a fortune, gah gah gah~~"
"We hit the jackpot—this treasure could last us months, heh heh heh…"
Suddenly, one of the underlings shouted.
"Devil Fruit... I found a Devil Fruit!"
The other pirates froze, immediately turning their heads toward him.
Olivfo could no longer sit still. He quickly stood up and strode over.
"Out of my way, get back to sorting!"
The men, terrified of Olivfo, quickly scattered and resumed sorting the treasure.
Kate, the first mate with a bounty of 31 million Berries, looked at Olivfo with a wide grin. "Captain, we've truly struck it rich now."
Olivfo picked up a small chest. Inside were three items:
A Devil Fruit
A notebook
Two Den Den Mushi (transponder snails)
Olivfo, despite his brutish look, was cunning. He immediately shouted, "Where did this little chest come from?"
The pirates paused and looked at each other.
Then, a scrawny young man raised his hand excitedly. "Captain, it was me—I found it!"
Everyone turned to him with envy. They figured he was about to be greatly rewarded—after all, finding such a treasure warranted it.
Olivfo picked up the Devil Fruit and laughed heartily. "Very good! Excellent!"
"Where did you find it? Tell me the details."
The underling stepped forward, excitedly explaining, "Captain, I found it in an old man's house."
"The old geezer refused to hand over his treasure, so I killed him. Then I searched the house."
"I found this little chest under the bed—it was locked, so I didn't open it. Never expected it to contain a Devil Fruit!"
Olivfo waved his hand and laughed. "You've earned credit—go pick out some treasure for yourself."
"Yes, yes, Captain Olivfo!" The young man's eyes sparkled with joy, and he quickly walked off to pick out some loot.
Kate looked at the Devil Fruit in Olivfo's hand, frowning. "Looks like a pineapple, and it's entirely green... it kind of looks poisonous."
Olivfo nodded, narrowing his eyes. "I thought the same. This Devil Fruit is probably related to poison."
Then he set the fruit aside and picked up the notebook, chuckling. "This thing looks old—definitely an antique."
He opened it and began reading carefully.
"Rocks? Who's that? Never heard of him."
Kate glanced at the notebook with a puzzled look—he had no idea who those people were either.
The more Olivfo read, the more annoyed he became. He started cursing. "What the hell is this—Kaido? Charlotte Linlin? Who the hell are these people?"
He slammed the notebook shut and tossed it to Kate, no longer interested.
Then, just as he was about to pick up the Den Den Mushi—
A burst of laughter suddenly echoed in from outside.
"So many treasures—guess they're ours now! Wahahahahaha…"
Shock.
Everyone in the White Ghost Pirates froze.
They immediately looked toward the source of the voice.
Leading the group was a young man in black clothes, followed by a large crowd—men and women both.
"Quite a crowd—looks like we get to slaughter a few today."
Doc Q lay on Stronger, a cruel smile spreading across his worn-out face.
Hawkins spoke in his usual low tone. "As expected from the overlord of the North Blue. They've plundered quite a lot."
Law, carrying his cursed blade Kikoku, said coldly, "People like this—murderers and looters—they all deserve to die."
"There's even a Devil Fruit. Seems like we're quite lucky this time."
Lafitte spun his cane like a gentleman and added casually.
Karina's eyes sparkled—she loved treasure. The sight of so much gold and jewels made her face instantly bloom with joy.
"This is amazing! I'm so excited! Heeheehee~~"
Betty took a puff of her cigarette, scanning the White Ghost Pirates coldly. "They stole all this? These people really deserve death."
Perona looked at Olivfo ahead and frowned. "That guy's so ugly—I really don't like him."
The Sweetheart Queen nodded and smiled sweetly. "He really lives up to his name—an infamous pirate indeed."
