Can Be a Bit Arrogant Now

"Kid, you're dead!"

"I work for the Lion King Pirates, with a bounty of 53 million. You just killed my subordinate, and this isn't over."

The bearded man's face darkened. He drew the long saber at his waist, cold sweat dripping from his forehead.

He had misjudged.

This guy had suddenly disappeared, and he hadn't seen it clearly at all.

Chaos smirked. These guys were strong against ordinary people, but to him, they were just small fry.

He was very interested in this Lion King Pirates. Since he had already offended them, he didn't mind taking them all down.

A bounty of 53 million should be a good whetstone.

In this era, 53 million wasn't a small sum.

He had just heard someone mention that the guy was an animal-type ability user. A meat shield like that would be perfect.

Whoosh!

Chaos vanished from his spot and reappeared beside the bearded man in the blink of an eye. He delivered a powerful kick.

The bearded man was quite capable. At the critical moment, he managed to raise his saber to block, but Chaos's kick had too much force. His face turned red as he could only hold on for two breaths before being sent flying.

The onlookers quickly retreated, shouting and roaring.

They were even more excited than the two fighting.

They craved the taste of blood, the scene of a fight, and even more, the screams and wails!

"Cough, cough~"

Ten meters away, the bearded man lay on the ground, blood gushing uncontrollably from his nose and mouth. Just one kick had almost made him unable to get up. His chest felt like it had been torn apart, and several bones were likely broken.

Chaos looked at the pathetic, terrified bearded man and immediately lost interest.

This guy was all show and no substance.

Leaving him alive was perfect for notifying the Lion King Pirates.

This pirate crew would be the first chicken he slaughtered upon establishing himself in Demon Valley Town!

Chaos turned and left, planning to find a tavern to stay in. The days ahead might not be so leisurely.

"Leave your name if you dare."

Chaos stopped and turned to look at the bearded man. He pondered for a moment.

Since he was here to fight, he could be a little arrogant.

He had been laying low for three years and five months. Now that he had basic self-preservation abilities, it was time to make his name known throughout the world.

"Golden Emperor Gaia Chaos!"

Leaving behind his title, Chaos departed. The surrounding pirates cursed and then scattered.

As for the bearded man, he glared fiercely at Chaos's retreating back, clutched his chest, and slowly left.

"Tropical Grand Hotel!"

Ten minutes later, Chaos stood before a large hotel. Even before entering, he could hear the noisy sounds from inside, with many pirates drinking.

"What do you need?"

As soon as Chaos entered, a burly, four-meter-tall waiter approached him, carrying a spiked club and with a flintlock pistol tucked into his waist. He looked down at Chaos.

Who would have thought this guy would be a waiter?

Normally, waiters should be beautiful, delicate women. This guy was like a beast.

"Speck, you idiot! I want a case of rum here."

From a nearby table, several pirates, reeking of alcohol, yelled.

"Bastard, can't you see I'm serving a new customer? Bear with it."

Speck turned back and yelled even louder, then looked at Chaos impatiently, "Kid, are you here to eat or stay? Hurry up!"

"Stay and eat!"

Chaos's mouth twitched. The lobby was filled with the mixed smells of sweat, alcohol, and food, hot and stuffy like a pigsty!

"The most luxurious room is 100,000 Belly per day."

"Second most luxurious room is 50,000 Belly per day."

"Single room is 10,000 Belly per day. Come with me to the counter to pay the deposit."

Speck dragged his spiked club and turned decisively towards the counter.

The one collecting the money was an old man smoking a pipe. He was also the owner of the hotel. He looked senile and dizzy, but he was a former pirate whose bounty had nearly reached 100 million.

Furthermore, he was acquainted with other business owners in Demon Valley Town and was someone many pirates were unwilling to provoke.

After bringing Chaos to the counter, Speck cursed and went to fetch the alcohol.

Very rude.

"What kind of room do you want?"

The smoking boss, without looking up, flipped through the ledger in his hands.

"The most luxurious!"

A lump of gold, about the size of a fist, appeared in Chaos's hand. This time, the smoking boss looked up.

His previously cloudy gaze instantly sharpened.

"You can only stay for five days. Food is separate. Anything you break will cost ten times the compensation. It's best to resolve any trouble outside."

The smoking boss tossed the gold, put it in the counter, then took out a room key card-like item and explained the rules of the establishment.

Chaos took the room card and nodded.

"Triss."

"Triss, where the hell are you? Take this guest upstairs to the most luxurious room!"

The smoking boss yelled into the lobby.

"Boss, you'll definitely die before me. When you die, remember to leave your property to me, or I'll throw your body into the sea."

A booming voice caught Chaos's attention.

A woman, three meters tall, with a plump figure and a chest that heaved like waves, a centipede scar across her face, wearing a mismatched uniform, a flintlock pistol tucked at her waist, and a large axe on her back, walked over. She unceremoniously wished the smoking boss an early death.

She wanted to inherit his fortune.

"You damn Triss, I'll definitely live longer than you."

The smoking boss's eyes widened in anger.

"Hmph, let's see who lasts longer."

Triss scoffed, then turned to Chaos and waved her hand, "Follow me."

Following behind her considerable bulk, Chaos could still hear her muttering curses.

Arriving on the fifth floor, the so-called most luxurious room was actually just a regular room. It had a private bathroom, was a bit larger, and came with a sofa and other amenities.

There was a balcony on the side, offering a view of the sea and the back mountain.

Ten thousand Belly a day, and that didn't even include meals. One could only say it was fitting for a pleasure-seeking pirate island.

However, Chaos lacked nothing, especially not money.

After looking around the room and settling in a bit, Chaos went downstairs again, intending to get something to eat.

There was no room service here; if you wanted food, you had to go down to the lobby.

As for Triss, she had left Chaos at the door; she was very busy.

There were only four people in the entire hotel: the smoking boss, the two heavily built waitstaff Speck and Triss, and the head chef Bard. It was hard to imagine how this large hotel was managed by just these four.

Undoubtedly, all four were former pirates.

It was just unknown why they had settled down and retired in Demon Valley Town.

Returning to the smoky, chaotic lobby, Chaos was somewhat unaccustomed to it, but it was still within his tolerance.

Putting other things aside, this noisy atmosphere was quite pleasant, making it easy to forget unhappy things.

"What do you need?"

Speck, still dragging his morning star, ferociously and violently cursed at other tables of pirates from afar. Anyone else would have thought he was the customer.

The other pirates were also cursing, or laughing like lunatics.

There wasn't a single normal person among them.
