Looking out from the window, the glittering golden light gradually revealed the outline of an enormous ship.
"Overall length of ten thousand meters, comparable to a city."
Lily said: "Gulan Tesoro, the world's largest casino, also a famous amusement venue, everything is related to gambling, and it's said to lead to overnight fortunes."
"Eh? Only casinos?"
Renedia, flipping through a booklet on the sofa, raised her head and glanced towards the window, showing disappointment: "No amusement parks?"
"There are, indeed."
Marika chuckled on the side: "But everything's related to gambling; even the amusement activities can be gambled on."
"Now that's familiar!"
Renedia raised a small fist, "Lose and then snatch it back, that's just pure fun!"
Sage turned around and glared at her, "How did you come up with such a wicked idea? Who taught you? You're becoming bad!"
Then he realized Renedia was pointing at him, "Sage, back in Rain Land in Alabasta, that's exactly what you did..."
"Oh, it was me... No problem then."
Sage clicked his tongue in annoyance, glanced at the booklet in her hand, and asked, "What are you reading?"
"Romance comics."
Renedia wobbled the booklet in her hand, "Sugar gave it to me, it's about an island on the sea, where a brown-haired private school girl and a fierce-looking boy mistaken for a pirate fall in love..."
"What nonsense."
"And there are three more, one with a red-haired girl, one with a pink-haired girl, and one with a blonde-haired girl... The main characters are all proud yet awkward types, I'm planning to read them all and then tell Sugar which one is the best."
"Four Moe?"
Sage was stunned, recalling some very ancient memories.
"What?" Renedia asked curiously.
"Nothing, just felt like the voices were dubbed by the same person... Next time you see the comic with the pink-haired strong girl and the silver-haired sleazy uncle, remember to show me."
Sage waved his hand.
Although Sugar is older than Renedia in terms of living years, they really are the same age, and Devil Fruit always has side effects.
In addition to subtly influencing personalities, it also reconstructs bodies. Instead of becoming various 'Ability Users', it's more like real 'Devils' inhabiting the body that corresponds to the Devil Fruit's name.
Like the Hobby-Hobby Fruit, aside from preventing the body from growing, even the psyche remains the same, only becoming smarter over time, yet never reaching full adulthood, merely a precocious child.
Currently, Sugar is ten, Renedia twelve, they can play together.
"The biggest casino..."
Marika stood at the window watching the giant ship getting closer, saying: "Sage, this industry is much larger than our gambling business, and seems very prosperous."
"Because I've never seen this as an industry, others open a couple just for the sake of it, this as an industry... it's worthless."
Sage laughed, "Here's a joke, one person says to another, bet you eat this poop, you get a billion Belly. That person ate, and really received a billion Belly. But the person who ate the poop wasn't happy, so offered the same bet to the first person, the first one ate, and got back his billion Belly."
"Two piles of poop, generating two billion Belly in economic value, as for production value... it's not worth a fart!"
Sage rolled his eyes, "Old Sha is, Dover is, now this guy too, and the biggest, are we criminals only able to run casinos and sell weapons as business?"
"Show him, what real business is! What the hell, real business!"
Being a pirate, the most important business...
Is of course to snatch!
The black giant ship approached Gulan Tesoro, sailing into the enormous entrance resembling a casino facade at the bow.
Even with Death Star's size, under this ten-thousand-meter giant ship, it appeared quite small, and the wide entrance allowed smooth entry.
As it neared, it seemed as if gold rain started falling all around, descending below.
"It's gold!"
The crew members on the deck all reached out, letting the rain-like gold powder fall onto their bodies, cheering loudly.
The falling gold powder turned even the advancing water of the ship into gold color.
"Gold powder?"
Lily looked out from the window, slightly furrowing her brows, "As a casino, scattering it like this doesn't seem appropriate..."
This seems to be all day long, regardless of day or night, always scattering gold powder, and below is not a pond or lake, but the vast ocean, it will flow away.
As a casino, scattering gold powder, is also an unwise expenditure.
Doing this, is there some other purpose?
"Sage..."
She was about to speak, suddenly a gust of wind swept around, the captain's cabin door was already open, and Sage also appeared outside on the deck.
"Real gold? So extravagant?"
Sage greedily stretched out his hand, letting the gold powder fall onto his palm, yet the joy didn't last a second before darkening completely.
"Fake!"
Whoosh!
Suddenly, strong wind surged around him, blowing away all the gold powder covering the deck and the pirate crew members.
"Huh?"
Sipher on the deck was initially quite happy, coming out of the banquet hall as soon as they entered here, intending to take a look around, but gold powder rained down.
That was gold!
