Ten strangers entered Chris's room—the surveillance room.
They looked fierce and menacing, and everything about them, from their clothes to their manner, was strange. The man in front wore a fitted white suit and spotless white gloves. If Ye Chen had been there, he would have mistaken him for Bill, the Dragon Guard!
Bill was the Chimera Devil Fruit User Ye Chen had killed, the leader of the Ten Dragon Guards!
"Uncle Chris, long time no see. I can't believe you're still alive, you old bastard!"
The man looked refined, like a gentleman raised among the nobility. But the moment he opened his mouth, he started swearing.
He showed the elderly Chris no respect. His words made the other nine stare in disbelief. "Captain, is that true? This old man is a Celestial Dragon?"
"Let me correct you. He's not just an old man. He's an old freak who refuses to die. And yes, he's a Celestial Dragon. He's also my uncle."
After that brief introduction, Billy spotted Ye Chen on a surveillance screen. "Chris, you've got some nerve. The Dragon Mansion ordered you to kill them, and you defied the order!"
Billy crossed his legs and shot Chris an angry look. "My brother Bill was killed by Ye Chen, you senile old fool. Is following the rules of a game more important than avenging your family?"
Chris ignored him. He picked up the wine in front of him and took a calm sip. Billy nearly burst with rage. "If you weren't still useful, I'd get rid of you right now. Lafitte, get our supplies ready. We're entering the Death Cube!"
"Master... but..."
Lafitte did not dare disobey Billy, but without an order from Chris, he did not dare move either.
"Prepare water and food for him," Chris finally said
