Under the guidance of Tesoro, Akira took Hancock on the golden passage to the top-floor VIP room.
The walls are filled with light, the carpet underfoot is soft and silent, and the luxurious atmosphere in the air is enough to make any newcomer lose their mind.
However, Akira's steps were steady, with a warm smile on his face, as if he was just walking in his back garden. Hancock held his arm affectionately, his proud chin slightly raised, and in his beautiful eyes overlooking all living beings, there was only pure contempt for everything around him.
Tesoro walked at the front, his flirty pink suit particularly eye-catching under the golden light. He enthusiastically introduced the "scenery" along the way.
"Lord Marshal, here it is."
Tesoro stopped and pushed open the heavy golden door in person, with a smile on his face that was extremely bright.
On the carpet in the box, three still-warm corpses were in twisted postures. At the gaming table, four people, Saint Sellos, Saint Ferrari, Saint Lamborghini, and Palace Liana, had their glass covers covered with a layer of white mist due to their rapid breathing. They were surrounded by several black-clad bodyguards holding firearms, with the black muzzles pointing directly between their eyebrows.
When the four of them saw the figure standing at the door clearly, the fear on their faces instantly solidified, and their hanging hearts finally died.
The person they least expected to see came anyway.
"Oh?" Akira's eyes swept across the corpses on the ground, and then fell on the four ashen-looking Celestial Dragons. He turned his head and looked at Tesoro, pretending to be surprised. "What is going on!"
Before Tesoro could speak, Saint Sellos suddenly plucked up the courage, rushed to Akira's feet and hugged his trouser legs.
"Lord Akira! We were wrong! We were really wrong!"
He burst into tears and completely lost Celestial Dragons's dignity.
"We shouldn't sneak out to gamble! We shouldn't owe high gambling debts here! Please forgive us this time! We won't dare to do it again!"
The sudden scene froze the smile on Tesoro's face, and stirred up a storm in his heart.
What's going on?
From the information he collected, Akira is just a strong Navy Marshal. Even if he is highly valued by Holy Land, he will not be so afraid of Celestial Dragons, who calls himself a god!
Kneel down in public? Hold your legs and beg for mercy?
This is not fear, this is clearly Axe-Hand Morgan seeing a cat!
Even Tesoro was shocked, and Baccarat and others behind him were even more frightened. They all stood blankly on the spot, looking at Akira with eyes full of horror and confusion.
Palace Liana also made his final struggle at this moment.
She took off the glass cover on her head, revealing a pretty but pale face at the moment, and quickly climbed up to Akira with tears in her eyes.
"Lord Akira, as long as you can spare me this time, I am willing to change my mind and become a qualified Celestial Dragons!"
"High gambling debt?"
Akira seemed to have just grasped the key point. He blinked blankly and interrupted Palace Liana's words.
He looked down at Saint Sellos who was crying like a 300-pound child at his feet, and then at Tesoro who looked confused next to him, "Explain it?"
Tesoro took a deep breath and suppressed the huge shock in his heart.
He put on his iconic evil smile again, walked over to Akira, and vividly recounted how the four of Saint Sellos lost billions of Beli here, and even shot and killed the gamblers at the same table.
After speaking, he suddenly raised his voice and said with a serious expression, "Lord Marshal Please don't worry! As long as you say a word, I will have the IOU burned now!"
"Of course, before that, I hope Lord Marshal can agree to a small condition."
"The navy who asks New World to perform the mission is not allowed to approach or make a surprise inspection of Grand Tesoro. As long as Lord Marshal nods, 20% of Grand Tesoro's monthly income from now on will be credited to the navy's account on time!"
Akira smiled when he heard this.
"Are you using their debts to negotiate terms with me?"
Before he finished speaking, Akira suddenly raised his hand.
The pistol in the hand of a bodyguard opposite seemed to be grasped by an invisible big hand, and it fell out of his hand and fell steadily into the palm of Akira.
"Bang!"
Saint Sellos's wails stopped suddenly, and his hands holding Akira's trouser legs weakly let go, leaving a bloody hole in the middle of his forehead.
"Bang! Bang!"
Saint Ferrari and Saint Lamborghini didn't even have time to let out a scream before following Saint Sellos.
Palace Liana's eyes widened in horror, and he was about to say something.
"Bang!"
The gunfire fell, and the box fell silent.
Akira casually threw the gun back into the arms of the frightened bodyguard, then clapped his hands and said with a warm smile, "The debt will be cancelled, and this matter will end here."
Tesoro was stunned again.
He stared intently at the four Celestial Dragons corpses on the ground, his mind going blank.
Kill!
Just kill him?!
These "gods" who once made him lose his love and ruined his life were simply executed by Akira like this?
No trial, no reason, not even the slightest hesitation.
If you say kill, kill.
An unprecedented fanaticism spurted out from Tesoro's heart, and his face gradually became ferocious. Isn't this the power he desires?
At this moment, Akira walked straight to the gaming table.
He pulled out a chair and sat down, his eyes falling on Baccarat, whose delicate body was shaking slightly due to shock.
"How about I take a gamble, too?"
"You come and take charge."
"If you win, I will repay the gambling debt they owe tenfold. At the same time, I will allow Grand Tesoro to continue operating in New World and be protected by the Navy."
Baccarat's delicate body trembled. She wanted to say something but found that she had lost the ability to speak at this time.
Tesoro came back to his senses at this moment, a crazy smile appeared on his face, and he took a step forward and said, "Lord Marshal, are you serious about this?"
"This handsome man always does what he says."
Akira paused, then the conversation suddenly changed, and it was bone-chilling. "But if you lose, Grand Tesoro must disappear from the sea. Before that, you have to do one thing for me."
Tesoro asked subconsciously, "What's the matter?"
Akira smiled slightly, "Let all the pirates in Grand Tesoro disappear forever."
"Leave no one behind."
Without waiting for Tesoro to react, Akira's voice sounded again, "If during this period, a pirate escapes from Grand Tesoro, or one person is missed, I will kill one of your subordinates."
"If you miss more than ten people, you will all die!"
