"He's that guy, I saw him on the wanted poster before."

Jabba stood behind Roger, glancing at Dimon before speaking, "A new member of the Rocks Pirates, the Brewer Dimon."

Hearing this, Roger suddenly remembered.

But that wasn't what he wanted to know; it was the latter half of the sentence.

"So, what's your relationship with Shakky?"

"Just fellow travelers."

Dimon replied calmly.

The young Roger was a simp, and brainless at that.

If he remembered correctly, Shakky liked Silvers Rayleigh, the vice-captain of the Roger Pirates.

He was jealous and went after the wrong person?

Roger clearly didn't believe that the Devil Fruit he'd given away was later given by Shakky to someone else.

He was very hurt.

"Shakky, why did you give away what I gave you?"

Shakky's eyes curved, her smile still sweet, as if amused by the misunderstanding.

However, she still explained seriously, "It was just a trade. Dimon is a brewer, and his wine is amazing. The only way I could get some was to trade a Devil Fruit for it."

What kind of wine was so precious?

Roger was stunned. As long as they weren't a couple, he still had a chance!

However, Shakky's next sentence shattered his heart once more.

"Oh, by the way, Roger, isn't Rayleigh here?"

Roger's mouth twitched, and he had to reply, "He didn't want to come ashore, he's on the ship."

"He doesn't want to see me?"

Shakky paused, a hint of melancholy in her eyes.

Now it was Dimon's turn to spectate. You love her, she likes him, and he's his good friend. Tsk, what a melodramatic plot.

Wait, what about Ace?

Dimon suddenly realized a problem. So, Roger pursued Shakky, but she rejected him. In the end, seeing his imminent death, he went to the South Blue, randomly found a woman, got married, and had a child?

As he was indulging in gossip, Shakky in front of him began breathing rapidly, her face flushing with an unusual redness.

Stussy's expression changed, and she quickly supported Shakky, "What's wrong?"

"I feel so unwell..."

Shakky's breathing grew more rapid, and then her head lolled to the side as she fainted.

"Shakky!"

"Shakky-chan!"

"Miss Shakky!"

The pirates present were shocked and crowded around.

Dimon was also taken aback. Was this... lovesickness from Amazon Lily?

As if confirming his guess, Stussy said with a grave expression, "It's Amazon Lily's lovesickness. Gloriosa had it before too!"

Seeing the situation, Roger was also confused, "What illness? What do we do? Where's the doctor, where's the doctor?"

"Since it's an illness... it's simple."

At this moment, Dimon stepped forward and said, "Stussy, carry her back to the tavern and give her a sip of wine. That will fix it."

Undead couldn't even die from decapitation, so mere lovesickness was nothing.

Shakky had given him a Devil Fruit, so this cup of wine would finally be put to use.

The others didn't know about the Elixir of Immortality, but Stussy immediately understood, her eyes lighting up:

"That's right, I know! Everyone, please make way."

Soon, she carried Shakky back to the tavern and laid her on the bed in the lounge.

Roger wanted to follow, but Stussy stopped him.

"You guys, don't come in."

Dimon walked into the lounge. Roger said indignantly, "Huh? Why can he go in?"

"I'm going to save her. Do you want to do it instead?" Dimon said irritably.

Stussy couldn't help but chuckle, then pretended to be stern and closed the door. Turning around, she asked, "The wine?"

Dimon got straight to the point. With a raise of his hand, dark lightning flashed, and 3/4 of a bottle of the Elixir of Immortality appeared.

Seeing this, Stussy gasped and covered her mouth, "You're a Devil Fruit user too? What kind of ability is this?"

"The Brewer's ability."

Dimon replied perfunctorily, walking to the bedside and pouring a glass. "Help her upper body up."

If you think this book is good, remember to add it to your bookshelf to avoid losing it next time.

Stussy immediately complied, pinching Shakky's chin and forcing her mouth open slightly.

Dimon poured a cup of wine into her, carefully examining the woman's face.

Honestly, he didn't think this woman's charm was so great that even Rocks, Roger, Golden Lion, and Whitebeard couldn't resist her.

"Done."

After pouring the wine, Dimon put away the remaining half bottle.

"Is she okay?" Stussy asked. "Why isn't she waking up?"

"Not that fast, is it?"

Dimon seemed a little unsure and raised his hand to slap Shakky.

Stussy's eyes widened in disbelief. "What are you doing?"

"Trying to wake her up."

"I know you're trying to wake her up, but don't you think something's wrong?"

Seriously, slapping Shakky's face!

Stussy felt like she'd discovered a new continent. There really were men who weren't swayed by Shakky.

She couldn't help but stare at Dimon with admiration, which made him a little uncomfortable.

"Mmm..."

At this moment, the unconscious Shakky slowly woke up, interrupting their conversation.

Stussy immediately asked, "Are you okay, Shakky?"

"I... I almost died just now, didn't I?" Shakky touched her chest, her face showing lingering fear. "It's our Amazon Lily's lovesickness. I underestimated it before!"

For a moment, she felt like her heart had stopped.

"It seems you're fine. Our deal is over." Dimon smiled slightly and turned to leave.

Shakky stared blankly at Dimon's retreating back, then turned to Stussy.

Stussy smiled, finding herself rather impressed with Dimon. A man unaffected by Shakky – truly amazing!

"He poured you a cup of the Elixir of Immortality, Shakky. You're like me now."

Hearing this, Shakky's eyes widened. "I drank wine? While I was unconscious?"

"Yes, otherwise would you be okay right now? I didn't expect the Elixir of Immortality to cure your Amazon Lily's lovesickness." Stussy sighed.

Does this mean the immortal don't get sick at all?

Shakky was stunned. "No wonder my mouth tastes like wine. Damn it, I didn't even get to taste it!"

Her goal in pursuing the Elixir of Immortality, besides achieving immortality, was to know what the wine tasted like.

"You should thank Dimon for saving your life," Stussy gave her a look. "How do you feel now?"

Shakky sighed helplessly, touching her chest with a strange expression.

"It's weird. When I heard Rayleigh didn't want to see me, I felt like I was going to die."

"But now..."

She felt nothing!

At the same time.

Dimon walked out of the lounge, and Roger immediately stepped in front of him.

"Hey, how's Shakky?"

"First, my name isn't 'Hey,' it's Dimon. Second, she's fine and already awake."

Roger immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Dimon couldn't stand sycophants and couldn't help but say, "Roger, have you ever heard a saying?"

"What saying?"

"A sycophant, in the end, will gain nothing."

It didn't sound like a good saying.

Roger pouted. "You don't understand my love for Shakky at all!"

He paused, then asked, "You're a rookie from the Rocks Pirates, aren't you? Why haven't I seen Rocks?"

"He went to Elbaf." Dimon shook his head. The sycophant was beyond saving.

"Is that so?" Roger looked disappointed, then turned his gaze back to Dimon, grinning. "Since that porcupine isn't here, why don't you spar with me?"

Is he mistaking me for a love rival and wants to beat me up?

Dimon doubted the man's motives, but...

"Bring it on, I'd like to test my skills too!"
