"We haven't seen any suspicious targets for so long..."

Standing on the Crow's Nest, Usopp glanced around carefully and chuckled, "The World Government's reaction speed isn't that great either."

He had been on tenterhooks, fearing the World Government would suddenly send a fleet of warships to encircle and annihilate them, but so much time had passed and there hadn't been a single sound... He had worried for nothing!

"The World Government isn't stupid."

Perona rolled her eyes at Usopp and said, "Fighting us on the high seas is just asking for death."

"That makes sense, but who knows if the World Government has any backup plans?"

After jumping down, Usopp said, "What if Fujitora moves an entire island over here?"

Perona instinctively wanted to retort, but after thinking about what Fujitora had done in Dressrosa, she fell silent.

Yes, what if Fujitora could actually do something like that?

After all, she didn't know if that was Fujitora's limit...

"Stop worrying about things you don't understand," Xi Yan said. "If someone really comes after us, I'll see them."

His eyesight is now incredibly sharp; he can spot a naval fleet instantly.

However... as long as the World Government isn't out of their mind, they won't start a war with him at sea.

Therefore, Xi Yan remained very relaxed.

Seeing that Xi Yan had already said so, Usopp didn't say anything more.

"Hey, it seems our bounty has increased again," Zoro said.

"Oh?"

"Really?!"

Upon hearing this, Luffy and the others immediately gathered around; this was incredibly good news!

"Don't you all know yet?" Bartolomeo said with a smirk, "Your bounties have all increased quite a bit!"

"Please follow me, the latest Wanted Order is already hanging on the wall of this room!"

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go take a look!" Merry exclaimed excitedly.

Everyone's bounty has increased, does that mean she's now a very high-bounty pirate?!

Starting today, she will shed her status as a trainee sailor!

So happy!

"I'll take you there now." Bartolomeo smiled, then glanced at Law, who was staring at them expressionlessly, and said, "Trafalgar Law, your bounty has risen to 500 million Beli, but I threw it away."

Luo:...

Is this guy a child?

After a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth, Luo looked away and said calmly, "Thank you for letting me know, but I don't care about the amount."

Having said that, Luo ignored Bartolomeo and turned to leave.

"Tch, who would believe that?"

Bartolomeo scoffed dismissively. This guy probably thinks the bounty is too low, so he's acting like this on purpose.

Hmph, do you really think he can't see through it?

After giving a soft hum, Bartolomeo turned and walked towards the house.

"Ta-da!"

"Look, everyone!" Bartolomeo exclaimed excitedly, pointing to the bounty posters and signatures on the wall. "All your signatures and Wanted Order are here!"

"Why are they all framed...?"

Usopp's lips twitched slightly. Was this guy really that fanatical about his fans?

"Of course it has to be framed!" Bartolomeo exclaimed, raising his head. "It's my treasure!"

As a fan of the Straw Hat Pirates, he cares a lot about these things.

Then, Bartolomeo waved his hand and continued, "Now, let me introduce the latest Wanted Order for everyone."

"First up is Luffy- senpai, latest bounty: 920 million Beli!"

"Nine hundred and twenty million Beli!" Luffy exclaimed excitedly, "That's fantastic!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Nine hundred and twenty million?

Luo turned around in surprise and glanced into the room. Why was the Straw Hat's bounty so much higher than his?

Although he was the main force that defeated Doflamingo this time, his performance shouldn't be that bad.

Then, as if struck by a thought, Luo glanced at Xi Yan's retreating figure and wondered, 'Could it be because of this guy?'

But that doesn't make sense. The amount of the bounty depends on the person's influence, especially since Straw Hat is the captain... In this case, the amount of the bounty shouldn't have much to do with the Blood-Eyed Ninja.

So... is it really because of Doflamingo that Straw Hat has grown so tall?

Thinking about this, Luo fell into deep thought.

"Next up is Senior Xi Yan!" Bartolomeo excitedly continued, "Bounty: 900 million Beli!"

"Heh, nine hundred million, huh?" Xi Yan stroked his chin and said, "Isn't that a bit too low?"

He originally thought the World Government would set a bounty of over a billion Beli for him, but it turned out it wasn't even a billion?

Is it because setting it too high would embarrass the World Government?

At the same time... he was also afraid that bounty hunters wouldn't dare to hunt him, so he set the price a little lower?

Ha, what a boring trick.

"Senior Xi Yan, 900 million Beli is not low..." Bartolomeo wiped the sweat from his face. There aren't many bounties of this level in the entire New World!

But this guy actually thinks 900 million Beli is too low... I guess he's worthy of being called Senior Xi Yan?

"Hehe, it's alright, you can continue."

Xi Yan shrugged, signaling Bartolomeo to continue doing what he was supposed to do.

After wiping the sweat from his face, Bartolomeo nodded and continued looking at the other people's Wanted Order.

"Next up is Pirate Hunter Zoro -senpai, with a bounty of 350 million Beli."

"Heh, three hundred and fifty million, huh?"

Zoro smiled and said, "Not bad~"

"Hey, got any drinks to celebrate?"

Here, take it~

Merry thoughtfully handed Zoro a bottle of wine, which Zoro then thoroughly enjoyed.

"Next up is the Devil Child —Senior Nico Robin!" Bartolomeo laughed loudly. "Bounty: 200 million Beli!"

"Ugh, it's gone up again."

That's true, but Nico Robin did have a smile on her face, clearly very satisfied with her bounty this time.

"He's clearly smug," Usopp remarked.

Nico Robin smiled slightly upon hearing this, but said nothing.

"And then there's the Cyborg Franky!" Bartolomeo continued, "Bounty: 100 million Beli!"

"Finally over a hundred million!" Franky exclaimed excitedly. "But why is the photo on the Wanted Order of Franky Shogun?"

As he finished speaking, a hint of doubt appeared in Franky's eyes.

Normally, shouldn't the photo on Wanted Order be of the person in question?

"Maybe others think that's your true form," Xi Yan chuckled, patting Franky's arm. "After all, you're a robot."

"Is that so..."

Franky paused for a moment, then grinned and laughed, "These guys really have an eye for talent, hahaha."

"Super!"

Finally, Franky struck his signature pose once again.

"Next up is the legendary Usopp!"

Bounty: 200 million Beli!

"Steal... steal the young master?!"

Usopp said with a look of horror, "It's one thing to have my face photographed, but why is my bounty so high?"

"Oh no, I'm being watched!"

"But I'm still quite happy with such a high bounty..."

At this point, a smile appeared on Usopp's face, followed by a hint of dissatisfaction. "But what's with this photo? Why does it look like I'm getting beaten up?"

That photo clearly shows him with a bruised and swollen face after being beaten up. It's so embarrassing, you bastard!

Who puts up Wanted Order like that?!

"Hey, are you kidding me?!"

Franky grabbed Usopp by the arm, opened his shark-like mouth, and roared, "Why have you grown so much too?"

"Ah!"

"Even my own crew wants me dead!" Usopp exclaimed dramatically, sticking out his tongue. "Xi Yan, save me!"

Xi Yan's lips twitched upon hearing this, too lazy to bother with the guy.

"Damn it, I'm strong too, okay!"

After releasing Usopp, Franky angrily kept pressing his nose and changing his hairstyle, eventually turning himself into an afro.

That look seemed to say: I'm so angry I could explode!

"It's not just me who's increased this much, the others haven't seen a drop either," Usopp said helplessly. "Look at Nami and Sanji!"

Upon hearing this, Franky turned to look at the Wanted Order, then sighed silently. It seemed... they were indeed quite high.

"Black Leg Sanji's bounty has indeed increased significantly," Bartolomeo noted. "It's now reached 210 million Beli."

"This guy has over two hundred million too?" Zoro was taken aback for a moment, then grinned and said, "Hmph, but still not as much as me."

After saying that, Zoro picked up the bottle and took a big gulp of sake, looking extremely happy.

Perona glanced at Zoro speechlessly upon hearing this; why was this guy acting like a little kid?

"Sanji's Wanted Order isn't hand-drawn anymore," Luffy laughed.

"But it's not much better now," Xi Yan said, his lips twitching.

His eyes have turned into hearts; anyone who didn't know better would think he's some kind of lecherous monster.

However... thinking about it carefully, this guy isn't really that much better.

He was indeed a gentleman, and he was also indeed a womanizer.

"I agree." Zoro nodded in strong agreement; this photo truly captured the perverted nature of the Perverted Kappa.

A bead of cold sweat trickled down Bartolomeo's face. Wasn't Sanji doing a good job?

Oh well, as long as they're happy.

After clearing his throat, Bartolomeo continued, "Next up is Cat Burglar, the Nami burglar, with a bounty of 80 million Beli!!"

"Nami has gained quite a bit of weight too," Xi Yan said with a smile.

Although it didn't exceed 100 million, this amount is still quite substantial.

"But isn't there something off about this photo of her..." Perona pointed to the Wanted Order and said, "And... why does Nami look so happy?"

She would believe it if you told her the photo was a wedding photo.

"Nami probably only agreed to take the photos because someone offered her payment," Usopp said, his lips twitching. "She might even think she made a fortune afterward."

Otherwise, the other party wouldn't have been able to obtain such photos.

The others nodded in agreement.

This definitely sounds like something Nami would do.

Bartolomeo blinked upon hearing this. Nami- senpai had this side to her?

As expected... the senior's approach is truly different!

Bartolomeo then continued, "Next up is Perona, with a bounty of 110 million Beli!"

"So much?"

Perona herself was somewhat surprised, clearly not expecting her bounty to skyrocket to over 100 million.

Lord Moria would be very happy if he knew!

Thinking of this, Perona couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Hala hala hala~"

"See? This is my power!"

"And this photo is also very good, I like it very much."

"Hala hala hala~"

Perona's Wanted Order poster showed her flying through the air, unleashing a swarm of ghosts, a sight that was incredibly imposing and pleased Perona greatly.

"Next up is Chopper- senpai," Bartolomeo continued. "Bounty: 100 Beli."

Everyone:...

Upon seeing the bounty amount, everyone fell silent.

Then, Franky said, "I really don't know what to say to comfort him."

The bounty is only a little over a hundred... Chopper can't just burst into tears when he sees this, can he?

Bartolomeo blinked upon hearing this. Wasn't the bounty amount pretty good? It had doubled.

Never mind, there's probably something he doesn't know about this.

After shaking his head, Bartolomeo continued, "Next is the Soul King, Senior Brook, with a bounty of 93 million Beli!"

"Isn't this his concert poster?" Usopp remarked.

Could this be Wanted Order made by some fan in the Navy? Thinking about it carefully, it's not impossible.

"Finally, it's Senior Merry!" Bartolomeo pointed to the last Wanted Order and said, "Bounty: Two hundred Beli!"

"Click!"

How much... how much?

Upon hearing the amount of her bounty, Merry froze, as if struck by lightning.

Two hundred Beli?

Two hundred Beli?!

Why 200 Beli?

She actually participated in the battle in Dressrosa, so why did she only get 200 Beli?!

"Two hundred Beli..." Bartolomeo repeated.

Merry:...

Does she want the other person to repeat themselves?

"Why do I only get two hundred Beli?!" Merry flew to the front of the Wanted Order, Wanted Order with her little hands, and exclaimed, "And what does this name mean?"

"What does ' Merry, the mascot of the Straw Hat Pirates' mean?"

"How did I become a mascot?"

"I'm a combatant!"

"I participated in the battle!!!"

Merry became increasingly angry as she spoke, and eventually burst into tears.

Seeing the little girl crying loudly, no one knew how to comfort her for a moment.

"At least it doubled in price..."

Usopp's words only made things worse; they made Merry cry even harder.

Usopp:...

Was this considered a precise misstep?

Perona glared at Usopp, then floated over and hugged Merry, whispering words of comfort that gradually calmed Merry down.

A moment later, Merry shouted angrily, "Those damned navy, I'll make them pay sooner or later!"

How dare they treat her like that! Next time I see the navy, I'll make them pay!
