District 70 of the Sabaody Archipelago is where most of the hotels and guesthouses in the Sabaody Archipelago are located.
The Adam Smith Hotel is the most luxurious hotel in the Sabaody Archipelago. "Is this the place? It's truly magnificent!"
"Heh heh, that guy Zesi is a real tycoon now!"
"That guy is really capable. Even if he weren't a pirate, he'd still be a big shot." "Exactly! His Brunei Fine Wine have been selling like hotcakes in the New World this year."
"Just thinking about Brunei Fine Wine makes my mouth water! It's been so long since I've had any Zesi wine!" "Exactly! We're definitely going to have a good drink today!"
Gaban and his companions arrived in front of the Adam Smith Hotel, looking at the magnificent hotel and laughing as they spoke.
"Mr. Gaban, Golan, Momora..." Just then, two voices called out in surprise from inside the hotel. "Haha, it's Shanks and Buggy! What are you two doing dressed as waiters?" Gaban and the others looked in the direction of the voices and saw two teenagers dressed as waiters waving at them. Upon closer inspection, they realized that these two were none other than Shanks and Bucky.
"It's all because of Zesi, they called us over to do their bidding a long time ago!" Buggy said helplessly.
" Zesi bought this hotel to entertain everyone. He was worried that the hotel staff wouldn't recognize you, so he asked us to take over the hotel a while ago. Easter Egg is here too, he's preparing things for us inside!" Shanks said with a smile.
The Easter Egg is also an apprentice crew member of the Roger Pirates, Mink Tribe Panda.
"You are now standing before Mr. Buggy, the manager of the Adam Smith Hotel!" Buggy said smugly.
"That guy's gambling spree is getting bigger and bigger. It's just a party, there's no need for such extravagance, but he actually bought an entire hotel."
"If I remember correctly, this hotel is the best hotel in the Sabaody Archipelago. I heard that even the Celestial Dragons stay here when they come to Sabaody Archipelago, and Zesi actually bought it outright!"
"That guy's buying up properties here, he might as well confiscate the navy!"
"The Navy wouldn't dare confiscate Zesi's assets. Aren't they afraid that if Zesi gets angry, he'll flood their entire Marine Base!" Buggy said with a laugh.
Upon hearing Buggy's words, everyone burst into laughter.
"Mr. Rayleigh and the others have already arrived. Mr. Gaban, you should go in quickly too!"
"Oh, Rayleigh's already here? I heard he got into some trouble recently!" Gaban said with a laugh.
The group walked into the hotel, chatting and laughing, and soon the sounds of their laughter filled the hotel.
In a large banquet hall of the Adam Smith Grand Hotel.
The Roger Pirates, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, chatted and laughed happily, boasted, drank heavily, and ate the delicious food that was served.
"Hey, everyone's here!" Just then, someone pushed open the door and walked in.
" Zesi, is that a gift you brought for us?"
The person who arrived was Zesi. When everyone saw that Zesi was carrying someone in his hand, they couldn't help but laugh and say...
"Huh, that outfit... could it be from Celestial Dragons?"
"Let me see, it really is! Zesi, you didn't kill Celestial Dragons, did you?"
"He's not dead, just made to be unconscious for a while to prevent him from causing trouble!" Zesi casually tossed the Celestial Dragons Rosward to the ground.
"Huh, looks like someone's absent!" Zesi said, glancing around.
"That's definitely not enough!"
" Oden is in Wano Country, which is closed off from the world, so it's unlikely he'll receive any news. As for Bullet, we'll probably have to go to Impel Down to see him!"
"That Bullet guy never knows the meaning of restraint. He went head-to-head with the Navy, and in the end, the Navy caught him red-handed. The Navy launched the Buster Call, and even Garp and Sengoku got involved. In the end, that Bullet guy went to Impel Down."
" Zesi, you captured Celestial Dragons, are you planning to use him to exchange for Bullet?"
"If we need to rescue Bullet, we can just go to Impel Down and rescue him. Why bother with Celestial Dragons? I still have a use for this guy. Rayleigh, can you keep an eye on him for me? Garp and Sengoku might be here soon," Zesi said.
"Taking a look is no problem, but is there something you need?" Rayleigh said calmly.
"How can our Roger Pirates be reunited without someone? Oden is too far away in Wano Country. We'll go Wano Country to meet him after the gathering. But isn't Bullet Impel Down not far away? I'll go and bring him over."
Upon hearing Zesi's words, many people present gaped in astonishment.
That's Impel Down, you know! Do you think it's your hometown?
"Are you confident?" Rayleigh asked, pausing for a moment.
"Please remove the 'ma' part, thank you!" Zesi waved with a smile, then turned around and disappeared from Rayleigh and the others' sight.
"You brat, you've really grown to an unimaginable level!" Rayleigh said with a laugh after a moment of surprise.
Rayleigh was secretly alarmed.
You have to understand that's Impel Down; even I would have almost no chance of rescuing anyone from there.
If Roger were here, along with his Roger Pirates, they might be able to give it a shot.
But unexpectedly Zesi was so confident that he could rescue Bullet from Impel Down.
Based on his understanding of Zesi, Zesi was never one to boast.
In other words, the growth he has experienced over the past year is enough to give him this confidence.
He knew that Zesi was improving every day; the Tremor-Tremor Fruit was constantly training Zesi's body.
Even so, according to Rayleigh's estimation, it wasn't enough to give him such confidence.
In other words, Zesi's progress during this period exceeded Rayleigh's expectations.
