At the head of the table, Big looked at Enel, squinted his eyes, Prometheus and Zeus perched on his shoulders, sleeping bubbles rising from their noses, while Napoleon on his head yawned.

"Thunder God, I didn't expect you to have the guts to come here!"

A wisp of gunpowder smoke filled the air, accompanied by Sisi sparks.

The destruction Enel brought to Whole Cake Island was no mere child's play.

Strictly speaking, the two sides have a great deal of grudge, and it's not impossible that Big could riot at any time!

"Old woman, is this a den of dragons and tigers? I can't come here!"

Enel casually pulled over a chair and sat down, completely ignoring Big.

"Thunder God, don't be so arrogant!"

Cracker, one of the Four Sweet Commanders, slammed his hand on the table.

"Cut!"

Enel utterly disregarded them; in his eyes, only Katakuri and Big were worthy of his attention, and he had no interest in even answering the others!

"Phoenix incident, I haven't even bothered God yet. Are you sure God knows about your arrogance?"

Looking at Enel, Big's face darkened, and a faint Haki emanated from him, instantly freezing the entire scene.

"You're the boss?"

Enel picked up his glass of red wine, took a sip, looked slightly surprised, and then patted his forehead. "Sorry, Boss doesn't have time to deal with you guys. If it weren't for giving you face, I wouldn't have bothered coming!"

"So, you were the one who led the charge this time?"

"No, no, I'm just a bodyguard. The one with the most power is this beautiful lady next to me!"

Enel held up one finger, pointed at Reiju who was smiling, and shrugged.

At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on Reiju.

"Looks like I have a very low profile!"

Pulling up a chair, Reiju sat down without a word, her smile masking her undisguised sarcasm.

Beside them, Tesoro and Bege took a sip of red wine and nodded.

"This red wine is not bad, but compared to Bitter Tea, it's a bit hard to drink!"

Tesoro curled his lip, looking utterly disgusted.

"Don't you like drinking red wine?" Bege looked at Tesoro with surprise.

"This red wine is too low-grade; I only drink high-grade wine. Compared to that, it's not as refreshing as Bitter Tea!"

Leaning back in his chair, Tesoro yawned.

The subtle attempt to show off drew angry glares from those around him. "Red wine is divided into low-grade and high-grade?"

"Yes, it certainly has significant flaws compared to the wines in your collection!"

Bege delivered the finishing touch, her large face filled with disdain.

"How arrogant!"

Big burst into laughter, grabbed the crying cake from the plate, threw it into his mouth, and began to chew.

"Sister Reiju, enough chit-chat, what do you think of this deal?"

Snack could sense that his mother was angry, and he was sure that if the people from the country continued to make sarcastic remarks, the deal would fall through.

"A deal? Oh, sorry, I forgot!"

As if remembering something, Reiju Satori, and then said, "Since you've found out, let's discuss it, Bege!"

"What a hassle."

Upon hearing Reiju's words, Bege stood up somewhat impatiently, and a group of people emerged from her chest, all carrying boxes.

Opening them one by one, they revealed all sorts of weapons circulating in the Underworld.

With the appearance of these weapons, even Big stopped his feasting.

"According to our country's rules, we only need Seastone, various ores, Devil Fruit, or Devil Fruit users, and Famous Sword. As for treasure, we don't really care! That depends on whether your Big Pirates can produce it!"

Reiju tossed a list to Big without hesitation, but Katakuri caught it.

"Mother!"

After reviewing the list, Katakuri handed it to Big, but Big just waved it away without actually looking at it.

"You don't want the treasure?"

Big seemed somewhat surprised, or perhaps confused.

"Of course, treasure is only a final payment method. If your Big Pirates can only trade with treasure, then I'm sorry, our cooperation won't last long!"

With her left leg crossed over her right, that fleeting, mysterious allure was utterly captivating.

Big burst out laughing.

"I want as many of these things as you have!"

After laughing, Big pointed at the boxes, exuding an air of Haki.

"As expected of one of the Four Emperors, to be honest, I admire you greatly!"

Reiju smiled; of course, she had no objections to Big's straightforwardness!

"You admire me?"

"Of course, don't forget I'm a woman too!"

With a radiant smile, Reiju looked at Big.

Big paused for a moment, then burst into laughter again, the previous unpleasantness vanishing. "Bring me the most delicious cake! I want to treat you well!"

In an instant, the oppressive atmosphere of the Tea Party, which had been tense due to the previous unpleasantness, became lively again.

The next day, the bright red sun quietly peeked out from the horizon.

With a roar, a boundless Lightning Dragon vanished into the horizon amidst flashes of lightning.

Yesterday, after attending the Tea Party, Reiju and the others rested for the night on Whole Cake Island, and the weapons Bege brought this time were also traded between the two sides.

However, this wasn't the last time, as the two sides reached a subsequent deal!

"Mom, they've already left!"

In the bright and spacious hall, Big sat at the head of the table, with Katakuri and the others seated below him.

"Mom, those people from that country are too arrogant!"

Some people were furious, their faces filled with anger.

"What kind of bullshit country is this? If it weren't for the fact that these weapons are still useful, I'd really like to wipe them out!"

"I'm very interested in the country!"

With a meaningful grin, Big revealed her true intentions; it wasn't hard to see that she wanted to annex the mysterious country, and this deal was merely a test.

Meanwhile, Calm Belt thousand meters above the doldrums, in the royal palace of the kingdom, Reiju and her group returned.

Upon entering the gate, the four of them were surprised to see Ye Chen.

"Bss."

Upon entering the main hall, Reiju called out, while Enel sat down in a chair and took a sip of tea.

"You're back?"

Sitting on the throne, Ye Chen put down the documents in his hand and looked at Reiju other three.

"Kindness."

"Boss, I've gone to deliver the items from this transaction to Caesar!"

At that moment, Bege made a sound.

Ye Chen nodded, then looked at Reiju and asked, "How are you feeling?"

"Big, you overestimate Big. She's just an old woman."

Enel looked on with disdain.

"Go take care of your own business!" With a hint of gunpowder in his right eye, Ye Chen waved his hand indifferently.

"Tesoro, let's go to your casino and have some fun!"

Boring, Enel stood up and looked at Tesoro was leaning back in his chair with his legs crossed.

Let's go.

Tesoro yawned and stood up.

After that, only Reiju remained in the entire hall, while Kalifa handled some official business.

"Bss, I have to admit that Big is capable of becoming one of the Four Emperors. She's not as simple as she seems on the surface."

With a solemn expression, Reiju voiced her thoughts.

"For a woman to climb to the position of one of the Four Emperors is truly remarkable!"

Without much of an expression, Ye Chen resumed his official duties, saying nonchalantly, "From now on, these transactions will be yours."

"Understood, boss."
