It was already evening when Alvin left Serena's house.
At this moment Alvin felt refreshed.
Madam Serena's skills were truly excellent.
Although Madam Serena tried her best to persuade Alvin to stay the night, even mentioning that she had read many additional techniques in books, he still reluctantly declined.
How could the esteemed West Seas Ultimate Evil be tempted by mere beauty?
However, before leaving Alvin bought a large quantity of fine wine from her, and he even paid a premium price for it, which made Madam Serena extremely happy.
Since Hyena's Fang Workshop had been destroyed by Alvin, the people of Erguotou Mountain finally dared to come out at night again, and the bars were bustling with activity.
Now the conversations inside the bars were all about Alvin.
Those who had been the first to come out and clean the battlefield were boasting loudly, speaking with pride as if they had participated in the battle themselves.
However Alvin did not return to any bar.
He had already drunk plenty at Madam Serena's house today. If he drank any more he might actually get drunk.
When he walked to the Fiery Hotel, he saw that the owner was just about to close the door.
The moment the owner saw Alvin, he was instantly startled and hurried to close the door even faster.
"Boss, if you dare close that door, I'm going to lose my temper…" Alvin said while glaring at the hotel owner.
Sure enough, when the owner heard that Alvin might lose his temper, his movements froze immediately.
A forced smile quickly appeared on his face.
"Uh… Red Hawk, aren't you staying the night at Madam Serena's house tonight?"
"What nonsense!" Alvin shot him a sharp glare. "Don't spread rumors about Madam Serena. Madam Serena and I are completely innocent!"
"Yes, yes, yes…" the hotel owner replied with a nervous laugh.
Then he quickly stepped aside and opened the door wider.
"Red Hawk, please come in. Actually your room has been prepared for quite some time."
Alvin slowly nodded, clearly satisfied with the owner's attitude.
"That's right. She and I are innocent. Alright then, where is the room? Take me there."
"Of course. It's the best room on the top floor. Please follow me…"
The hotel owner immediately led the way.
At the same time he muttered silently in his heart.
He stayed there for so long and they are still innocent? Who would believe that?
Still, he could not help feeling envious.
Although Madam Serena's appearance was only average, she had one of the best figures in all of Erguotou Mountain.
After escorting Alvin to the luxurious suite on the top floor, the hotel owner went downstairs again with a flattering smile.
Meanwhile, on the Grand Line.
Inside Marine G10 Fortress.
At this moment the port was brightly illuminated.
Rows of Marines were boarding warships in an orderly manner.
Rear Admiral Lucas stood at the front of the formation, his expression solemn.
"Hurry up!"
"Our target this time is the pirate Red Hawk!"
"In the West Blue he used extremely cruel methods to kill officials of the World Government, hundreds of Marines, two successive kings of a kingdom, and countless civilians!"
"Because of this he earned the title West Seas Ultimate Evil!"
"This time, in the name of justice, we will cleanse the seas of this filthy scum!"
Major Jasper, Rear Admiral Lucas's adjutant, loudly shouted these words on his commander's behalf.
Soon all the Marines boarded their ships.
All weapons were prepared as well, especially equipment made from Sea Stone.
Rear Admiral Lucas then stepped forward.
After arriving at the bow of the warship he shouted loudly.
"Set sail!"
The massive warship slowly departed from the port.
On the highest floor of the fortress building, inside the office of Yamakaji.
He stood by the window quietly watching Lucas's warship sail out of the fortress.
"Even at this late hour Rear Admiral Lucas is still heading out to sea. He truly is a rare and dedicated officer among the Marines," Yamakaji said with emotion.
However Major Jasper, his adjutant, immediately exposed the truth.
"Vice Admiral Yamakaji, please say fewer such insincere words. It's obvious that he simply doesn't listen to your orders."
Jasper's tone carried a trace of dissatisfaction.
"Major Jasper, there's no need to worry too much about such things. As long as he is fighting pirates, we do not need to interfere," Yamakaji replied casually, his face still wearing that constant faint smile.
"Then… regarding the matter of him helping the Seven Warlords of the Sea search for Devil Fruits, should we continue investigating?" Jasper asked after thinking for a moment.
"Of course we should investigate. This is our duty. Even we Marines place great value on treasures like Devil Fruits," Yamakaji said seriously.
"Yes! Understood!" Jasper immediately responded.
Back at Erguotou Mountain.
Alvin had just taken another bath.
Wrapped in a soft bathrobe, he stepped out of the bathroom while steam still lingered in the air.
Before he could finish drying his hair, a few soft knocks suddenly sounded at the door.
"Who is it?" Alvin frowned slightly and called out with confusion.
"Red Hawk, your midnight snack has arrived."
A soft and melodious female voice sounded from outside the door.
Her tone carried a hint of cautious flattery.
Midnight snack?
Alvin was immediately stunned.
This place actually delivered midnight snacks?
But he had never ordered anything.
With curiosity and suspicion he walked toward the door in his slippers.
The moment he opened the door, the warm yellow light from the room illuminated the woman standing outside.
It was her.
The woman who had boldly hugged his arm earlier that day.
She had a slender figure and extremely eye catching curves.
Madam Serena had once mentioned her name.
Celia.
At this moment Celia was wearing a black cloak that reached all the way to her ankles, completely concealing her alluring figure.
Her face was lightly made up, giving her an even more delicate appearance.
However her hands were completely empty.
Where was the midnight snack she mentioned?
Could it be…
She was the midnight snack?
"Miss Celia, you're quite bold. Coming to see me alone so late at night?" Alvin crossed his arms and looked her up and down with a playful smile.
"That woman Serena dared to do it, so why wouldn't I dare? Unless… Red Hawk, you…" Celia said while trying hard to suppress the nervous pounding of her heart.
She forced herself to look directly at Alvin.
"Very well then. The night is long. Let's have a proper discussion about the liquor business."
After speaking Alvin casually extended his long arm and wrapped it around Celia's slender waist.
The moment he touched her he could not help thinking to himself.
This figure is unbelievable.
The places that should be full were perfectly curved, while the places that should be slender were soft and delicate.
How exactly did this woman maintain such a figure?
"G good… good. Let's discuss it properly then," Celia replied in a trembling voice.
Her tone carried both nervousness and anticipation.
Alvin wrapped his arm around Celia and walked back into the room.
He gently closed the door behind them.
The moment they entered the room Celia's black cloak slipped off her shoulders.
Only then did Alvin understand why she had worn the cloak.
"Uh… Miss Celia, how exactly do you plan to sell this liquor? How much per jin?"
"Red Hawk, I feel a bit cold. Let's go to bed and discuss it properly under the covers."
"That's my fault…"
"Red Hawk, I still feel a little cold even under the covers…"
"Then I'll hold you…"
"Wait, these clothes are uncomfortable. Red Hawk, please help me take them off…"
"My pleasure…"
"Mm~"
