On the Gran Tesoro.
In the gambling hall on the first floor of the luxurious hotel, completely built of gold.
The lights were dazzling, extremely luxurious, and somewhat noisy.
"This round, bet big!"
"Neji, this is your last chip, haha..."
"Don't worry, I'll definitely win. I don't believe my luck is that bad!"
Neji and Courage, each holding a beautiful woman with a sensual body, sat at the gambling table.
In reality, neither of them was particularly addicted to gambling. It was just a rare opportunity to come to this largest entertainment city, and they wanted to indulge a bit.
This money was just bounty obtained from hunting pirates who refused to submit. They naturally wouldn't feel bad about it, but consistently losing more than winning still made them a little displeased.
"These two guys..."
A "one-eyed" man with an eye patch over his right eye, a fierce face, and a tall physique, stood with his back to Neji and Courage, who were enjoying themselves. He was quietly standing near a slot machine.
Because he was deliberately disguised, besides his height being quite eye-catching, he looked exactly like a gang boss. No one could recognize Boris. Boris scanned Neji and Courage, feeling a bit speechless.
"Oh, I heard the two princes lost a billion Berries these past two days. That's really..."
A tall man wearing sunglasses and a suit, with his hands behind his back and a somewhat cold expression, stood behind Boris, fully disguised as a bodyguard.
While being vigilant, he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Hosen had not lost a single person so far. He had never even seen a billion Berries before.
"Don't mind them. We'll complete our mission!" Boris casually tossed a coin into the slot machine, speaking calmly.
"Is the target confirmed?"
"It's confirmed. As long as she enters an unmanned area without surveillance, we can make our move immediately!"
A beautiful woman with wavy red hair, wearing a somewhat revealing black long skirt, swaying her sensual hips, and smiling sweetly, continuously patrolled the gambling hall.
She was Baccarat, a cadre under "Golden Emperor" Gild Tesoro, a user of the Lucky-Lucky Fruit.
But she didn't realize that she was already being targeted.
"Lucky-Lucky Fruit. I never thought there would be such an exaggerated ability in this world. It made Gild Tesoro have such great luck..."
Whether the Lucky-Lucky Fruit could absorb other people's luck and transfer it to others was unknown.
But analyzing it from another angle, as long as the Lucky-Lucky Fruit user maintained her own luck as extremely prosperous, and she truly wanted to follow her superior, wouldn't she naturally bring good luck to the other party?
Gild Tesoro was able to rise in such a short time. Besides his own efforts and strength, perhaps the power of this Lucky-Lucky Fruit played an indispensable role.
"Wow~~~ This round just happened to be a big bet. Congratulations to both of you..." Baccarat pulled her long, beautiful leg and came to Neji and Courage, saying with an exaggerated smile.
"Beauty, are you free?"
The two's eyes turned red, but at least they didn't show any foolishness.
Despite playing on this huge cruise ship for two days, it wasn't the first time they had seen Baccarat. But Neji and Courage still couldn't help but feel surprised every time, attracted by her charm.
"Excuse me, two young masters, I'm not as free as you. I'm very busy!" Baccarat knew the two's identities and didn't give them a cold shoulder, just smiled faintly and refused.
"Lost!"
In Neji and Courage's greedy gaze, she directly twisted her alluring hips and walked directly towards the staircase.
"Tch~~~"
Until Baccarat's figure disappeared, Neji shrugged and averted his gaze.
"Neji, you really want to play, don't you? I understand..."
Courage revealed a sly smile and said with a grin, "Speaking of which, this little girl's figure is really great."
"Don't be silly. This woman is a cadre under 'Golden Emperor' Gild Tesoro. If you really force yourself on her, something bad might happen..." Neji, who had already recovered, directly pulled over the beautiful woman beside him, Bijen. He chuckled softly.
"Go!"
Boris stood up, carrying the unconscious Baccarat, and walked towards the bathroom.
Third floor, luxurious room.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."
Tanaka suddenly drilled out of the wall, carrying a sinister, sly smile, looking at Baccarat, who was sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed: "Master Tesoro might need to leave for a while tomorrow to meet with Doflamingo, the Warlord of the Sea. Let us take care of things here."
"Can't you just not mess with those two perverts? It's really a bit unsatisfying, isn't it?" He shrugged. Baccarat chuckled softly.
"They are members of Geralma's royal family. If you really touch them, you'll provoke Geralma, that Asura. That's not a good thing. Hehehe..."
"Ah..."
Suddenly, Tanaka's neck felt a sharp pain. He couldn't help but gasp.
"Thump!"
In an instant, his whole body went limp and soft on the ground. A strange bracelet inexplicably appeared on his right hand.
"Seastone? How... how..."
But before he could struggle, his eyes rolled back and he fainted directly.
"Ah? Tanaka?"
The sudden drastic change made Baccarat's face change, and she instinctively retreated backward.
"Splish..."
A sound of tearing air.
His abdomen was suddenly pierced by a fine needle. In a flash of lightning, his back was struck again, and his whole body went limp.
"Although he's not the target, since he's an ability user, I'll take him back with me anyway..." Boris said calmly, looking at Tanaka, who was restrained by a Seastone bracelet and wore a delicate glove.
"Hmm!"
A phantom appeared in the air, gradually becoming clear.
It was indeed Ramon, the bodyguard who had previously followed behind Boris.
Evidently, he, who was once the captain of Geralma's Fifth Regiment, had become a Super Paramecia-type user with the ability to turn invisible.
Geralma was now different from before. The previous six combat teams' compositions were naturally no longer suitable, but Judge had not yet officially implemented reforms in this regard.
"Mission complete. To avoid attracting attention, leave immediately!"
He pulled out an exquisite Seastone bracelet from his pocket and shackled the fainted Baccarat. Boris directly hoisted her onto his shoulder. He then casually pulled out the needle from the other party's body, without any pity.
"Those two princes..."
"No need to worry about them. Although their strength is mostly no match for Tesoro, I have enough confidence in my own power. And I'm not worried about Neji and Courage's abilities."
Gild Tesoro shouldn't necessarily target the two of them. It was unnecessary to provoke Geralma 66 for no reason.
If he notified them to leave immediately, wouldn't that be like covering his ears while stealing a bell?
