Spandine? Come On, I'll Listen to You

Mu Chen had no intention of making any exchange. Trading an Age-Age Fruit for Vegapunk's friend did not seem unreasonable to him. Just then, a World Government ship rapidly approached. Kong Ming called Mu Chen and Qi Yuan to the deck. Seeing that familiar vessel, Mu Chen thought of a familiar yet loathsome person. Sure enough, that guy had come too.
