Vivian was wearing a black and white short-sleeved shirt and shorts, revealing his muscular body. There was nothing he could do, the weather had gotten hotter recently, the sun was shining brightly, and there was no air conditioning in the cabin. If there hadn't been many female sailors on the warship, he would have been walking around on the deck shirtless in just his shorts.
Similarly, after seeing Vivian's attire, they did not see the pirates with the Blood Demon's Long Sword, so they did not recognize Vivian. They just thought that the people in front of them were also pirates, or traveling merchants, that's all.
"I see, is this the territory of the Three Emperors Straw Hat Pirates?"
Vivian pretended to be enlightened when he heard this, then smiled flatteringly at the pirates in front of him and said, "Sorry, sorry, we didn't know this was the territory of the Three Emperors. We were just passing through here and wanted to get some supplies in the city. There are ten of us in total. Here is 100,000 Baileys. Please accept it."
The entrance fee was 5,000 Baileys per person, which meant 50,000 for ten people. Vivian directly gave the other party 100,000, so the bribery was obvious.
As expected, after weighing the money bag, the blue-haired pirate's eyes suddenly lit up, revealing a smile of "You are really sensible", and patted Vivian on the shoulder and said, "Go in, remember, don't make trouble in the city, otherwise, it will be a disrespect to our captain, Straw Hat Luffy, do you understand?"
"Yes, yes."
Vivian bent down and nodded again, glanced at the Straw Hat Pirates flag standing tall outside the town, then waved his hand and walked into the town with everyone behind him.
...
"Those people just now should be from the Straw Hat Fleet, right?" One of the eight elite navy soldiers following Vivian and Zero on the town street asked in a low voice.
"It should be."
Vivian nodded when she heard that. "After all, there are only a few members in the Straw Hat Pirates. It's unlikely that they are new members."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zero, who was walking in the front, followed up and said, "According to the data, the current number of members of the Straw Hat Pirates is nine. The rest are pirates led by the nobleman Cavendish and Bartolomeo, who are helping Monkey D. Luffy manage these territories."
He knew very well who were the crew members of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet.
"So what should we do now?" Vivian continued to ask.
"Of course we are gathering information in this town. According to the information sent by CP0 intelligence personnel, Edward Weeble once appeared on this island. We can find out whether he killed Chatun by catching him and interrogating him. In addition, the Straw Hat Pirates seem to have regarded this place as their base camp recently. If we stay here for a few days, we may get some unexpected gains."
Zero had long wanted to take action against the crew of the Straw Hat Pirates. After all, these guys were growing too fast, and it was time to dampen their spirit.
At the same time, he could also take this opportunity to take a good look at whether Vivian had any other thoughts.
"Then should we disperse?" Vivian took out a cigar from his storage ring, put it between his lips, and then asked.
"Let's separate so we can gather more information. If we encounter any situation, we can use Den Den Mushi to communicate," said Zero.
Of the ten people present, Vivian needs no introduction, and the rest are all elite soldiers above the rank of lieutenant colonel, and they all carry a Den Den Mushi with them.
"Okay, let's separate for now, and contact each other again if there's any news."
Vivian whispered something, then put his hands in his pockets, found a crowded direction, and left without even turning his head.
Well, having finally arrived at a new and prosperous island, he naturally had to take a good look around and see if there was anything interesting.
As for tracking down Edward Weibel
Anyway, with CP0 around, he probably wouldn't need him much.
However, Zero, after Vivian left, restrained his breath and followed quietly.
...
"It's time for dinner, come and take a look if you're passing by. Fresh seafood, made with our own secret recipe, guaranteed to be delicious. If it doesn't taste good, you don't have to pay."
In a busy city, at the door of a seafood restaurant, a middle-aged owner wearing an apron was shouting loudly towards the street.
However, what was strange was that although the location of this restaurant was quite good, no one came to eat at their restaurant. This made Vivian, who happened to pass by here, sincerely curious.
"I'm hungry anyway, so I want to try and see how bad the food in this restaurant is."
Vivian muttered something under her breath, but just as she was about to step forward and walk into the store, she was suddenly stopped by a young man who rushed out from the alley next to her.
"What?" Vivian asked in confusion.
Then the man opened his coat, revealing the long sword at his waist. He looked at Vivian with his nose up and said, "I'm from the Straw Hat Fleet. You are not allowed to enter this store."
"Why?"
Vivian blew out a puff of smoke and said, "You have to tell me a reason, right?"
"Because... the food in this restaurant is extremely unpalatable." The man said, pushing Vivian impatiently, "Anyway, you are not allowed to eat in this restaurant. Go away quickly and don't force me to do anything."
Vivian: “…”
After being pushed by someone, although Vivian felt a little unhappy inside, she decided to endure it for the time being and not argue with the other party as she wanted to hide her identity.
But just as he nodded and was about to turn around and leave, a teenager who looked to be about fourteen or fifteen years old suddenly rushed out of the seafood restaurant with a kitchen knife, pointed at the young man and shouted, "Damn bastard, all our guests were driven away by you, today either you die or I die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the young man raised his hand and slashed the young man's back with a knife.
However, when the knife was still more than ten centimeters away from the opponent, the middle-aged boss suddenly pulled it back and shouted anxiously: "Bois, don't be impulsive, he is from the Straw Hat Fleet!"
"So what about the people from the Straw Hat Grand Fleet! Compared to the guys from the Beasts Pirates, there is simply no difference between them. They are just a bunch of damn pirates! They will get their comeuppance one day!"
The boy was still very angry and shouted loudly.
He had just finished speaking.
"Little boy, you are really brave."
The young man sneered, then drew out the long knife from his waist, raised his hand and chopped it down hard on the boy's head.
