Chapter 299 Loki, I'll make up for all the childhood I owe you.
The freest man?
Harald suddenly covered his face and burst into laughter.
"Bala~ Hahaha~~"
"You're quite an interesting fellow, Bazel!"
"You're the most interesting man I've ever met; don't you have even the slightest interest in ruling?"
The giant king's laughter grew louder and louder.
"You two are really not like each other. Although this kind of madness and confidence is equally attractive, you are different from him."
The laughter gradually faded away.
Harald's eyes widened, and the inexplicable aura emanating from him caused Loki beside him to take several steps back.
"Listen up, pirate Bazel!"
"I am the king of giants, the patriarch of all giants!"
"You want me to bring the giants to join you? No problem, come to Elbaf and defeat me!"
"If you defeat me, I'll take you on as a team, even if you make me join the Beasts Pirates to clean floors!"
"If you can't defeat me, then the cooperation between the Giants and the Beasts Pirates will forever remain at this stage."
"That's the rule of the giants!"
"If you want the power of the Titans, then follow their rules!"
"If you can't do that, then I can pretend I didn't hear what you just said."
The Den Den Mushi smirked confidently, "I couldn't be happier, Harald. You'd better stay put in Elbaf."
"Once I become stronger, I will challenge you."
"I'll beat you to a pulp!"
"Ha! You think I'd run away in a panic?!"
Harald rolled up his sleeves, and for some reason, he felt his blood, which had cooled down, suddenly boil again.
The passion I had when I was young and went out to sea seems to be returning.
"Stop talking nonsense, brat! You're a hundred years too early to think you can defeat me!"
"Come to Elbaf if you dare! I'll break your legs if I don't!"
Nearby, he watched as his father, like a shrew, stood with one foot on the table, holding a microphone and hurling insults.
Loki looked shocked.
This was the first time he had ever seen his father like this.
The Den Den Mushi meeting has completely devolved from future plans into an online spat between Bazeir and Harald.
At this moment, the two top experts were like children, each trying to belittle the other with whatever words they could think of.
Snap—
Suddenly, the Den Den Mushi hung up.
Harald was breathing heavily, his eyes bloodshot.
"Dad, are you alright? —"
Loki asked cautiously, knowing only that his father had lost.
He was so scolded by his older brother, Bazell, that he couldn't lift his head.
"Do I look like something's wrong?!"
Harald was still furious, glaring at Loki, feeling an unventable fire burning within him.
"Kid, it's been a while since I taught you how to throw a punch, hasn't it?"
Loki was taken aback at first, then his expression changed slightly: "Hey, wait a minute, Dad, it wasn't me who insulted you!"
"Besides, I'm still a patient; my leg hasn't fully healed yet!"
"It's okay, I won't break your legs this time."
Harald grabbed Loki like a chick and carried him outside.
He learned his lesson and decided to fight in the wild, since the kingdom simply didn't have the extra money to repair the castle.
"I won't be able to sleep tonight if I don't get my revenge."
"Who told him to be your older brother, Loki? I won't hold back later. I'll make you pay for all the childhood I owe you."
Visalia, the little sky island
Bazel put away the Den Den Mushi with a satisfied expression.
Should we argue with him?
Was everything he learned online before he time-traveled was for nothing?
While I can't achieve 5 bursts per second, 3 bursts per second with Bazeir is still achievable.
Especially when Harald was only cursing himself.
Bazeir could dig up the other person's ancestors for eighteen generations and give them a thorough dressing-down.
"Phew, that feels good. I've wanted to yell at him like that for a long time."
Looking at the stunned meteorologists beside him, Barzel took out a piece of paper from his pocket.
She gracefully wiped the saliva from the corner of her lips.
"What happened?"
The meteorologists raised their hands and shouted in unison, "Don't pretend nothing happened, you bastards!"
"The plan is finalized, Professor Boone."
Bazel put on a smiling face, as if he wasn't the one who had just greeted the Giant King for 36 generations.
"Don't rush to build the cloud path to the second half. First, clear the road between Wano Country and Dressrosa."
"I will speak with the king there beforehand, so you can go ahead and do it."
"If anyone dares to obstruct me, don't be afraid. Contact me, and I'll send Kaido over to greet that idiot's entire family and, while he's at it, use his heat breath to clean the floor."
"No problem, but what about the payment?"
Boone grinned from ear to ear, rubbing his index finger and thumb together. "This is no small tip, Bazel."
"10 billion Berries, your Beasts Pirates are rich, aren't they? For just 10 billion Berries, Visalia can guarantee that Shibori won't decay for a hundred years!"
"No problem, but the 10 billion pegories will have to be paid in installments, and we don't have that much money right now."
Bazel knew that the billions he was buying were not for the materials of Island Cloud, but for the technology.
But no way.
It's because the Beasts Pirates don't have anyone who can create Shimbum.
Even though Bazel knew that the building materials for the island cloud were not valuable, the labor costs, time costs, and technology costs were huge expenses.
That's how valuable technological monopolies are, which is why he willingly signed this multi-billion dollar contract.
Anyway, the World Government has plenty of money. We can just have Viktor sell some high-purity seastone to the World Government later.
Bazell's generosity stunned Boone.
The old man pulled his prized student aside and whispered, "Harreda, have I asked for too little?"
Harreda and the old man squatted in the corner of the laboratory, whispering, "It's definitely too little, teacher, but it doesn't matter, we can squeeze them out of it again under the guise of maintenance later."
"And didn't Bazel say that the Cloud Road will eventually connect to the four seas? That's a massive project; it absolutely can't be undertaken without at least a trillion Berries!"
Boone's eyes lit up: "As expected of my prized student! Excellent, it's decided then!"
The teacher and student, who had returned to Bazel, pretended that nothing had happened.
"I'll have Quinn send the first batch of one billion Berries over once he returns."
"He's currently managing all of Bai Shou's funds, so please be patient and wait a while."
"That's a small matter. We trust your reputation, Bazel!"
Bazel grasped Boone's outstretched right hand.
"I wish us a pleasant cooperation."
"It's a pleasure working with you!"
One month later, somewhere in the New World—
【Aigheld Island, North】
A three-masted sailing ship with a beard and skull pattern slowly sailed into a huge cave located on the north side of the island.
"This is the place, right?"
In the darkness, the Roger Pirates emerged from the cabin and stood on the deck, their eyes flashing with an eerie red light.
"Roger, there are many hidden presences on the island."
Bang~~
The boat came to a stop after gently bumping into the rocks.
As the anchor was loosened and lowered, the Oro Jackson furled its sails.
"Donchino, Pain, and Bulmarin, the three of you stay here and watch the ship. The rest of you come with me to the island."
Roger jumped off the deck, scanned the area, and finally locked his gaze on a crack in the wall.
He slashed out with his right hand gripping the knife.
Buzz—Rumble!
Sunlight streamed down, revealing Roger's upturned mustache and the corners of his lips.
"The Roger Pirates, launch!!"
As everyone ran past Roger and excitedly rushed onto the ground, Rayleigh looked helplessly at Shakky, who was clinging to his arm.
"Have you hugged me enough? You've been hugging me even while eating this month."
"That's not enough!"
Xia Qi snorted and turned her head away from Rayleigh, but her hands still clung tightly to the man's arm.
"Rayle is a scumbag, he's the kind of guy who won't put his pants on after he's done—"
"Okay, okay, you can hug me now!"
Rayleigh quickly stopped Shakky from uttering more inappropriate words.
Looking up at Roger, who was watching him with schadenfreude, he kicked away the loose stones under his feet in annoyance.
"What are you looking at? You single dog, don't be envious, Xia Qi is mine!"
"I'm not envious of you, Rayleigh!"
Roger, speaking in a language Rayleigh couldn't understand, chuckled and joined the charge.
"Men, wait for your captain!!"
By the time Rayleigh and Shakky stepped onto the ground, the rest of Roger's crew had already vanished.
Only the distant roar and exclamations remained.
"Rayleigh, is this really okay?"
Rayleigh glanced at Shakky beside him, whose expression turned solemn, and his own expression became serious.
"I knew you wouldn't be unreasonable. What are you worried about?"
"This island."
Xia Qi stomped her foot on the ground a few times.
"This island is a hidden island of the World Government. The reason you were able to find this place is because of the CP Hound that Miller Pine interrogated, right?"
"The reason the World Government wants this island to disappear is probably because something hidden here cannot see the sunlight."
"The ancient robot Emmett, you mean the thing Bazel told Roger about, right?"
Xia Qi nodded in agreement.
Lei used his Observation Haki to scan the surroundings, and only after confirming that there were no enemies did he take Shakky's hand.
As if on a picnic, they leisurely chased after Roger.
"That man must be plotting something. This time, our Roger Pirates will probably be used as pawns by him."
"There are quite a few powerful auras here. Although they are no match for us, they are already considered strong compared to the henchmen of the amusement park."
Xia Qi lowered her voice: "I've been searching through old channels for information related to this island, but—"
"Rayleigh, we haven't found any relevant information, it's as if this island never existed."
"This is not normal!"
"Unless some very powerful force has been concealing the existence of this place."
"The World Government," Rayleigh sighed softly. "It was precisely because he guessed it was the World Government that Roger insisted on coming."
"The Five Elders are all monsters; don't you already know a lot of things?"
"Back then, we stormed into the Valley of the Western Sea God to save you, and I arrived just in time when Somaz was about to kill you."
"You saw it too, right? Somaz, who I slashed away, isn't dead."
As if recalling a painful past, Xia Qi's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
"Later I heard Roger say that the Five Elders also possessed the same immortality."
"Roger has been searching for a way to break this ability, and now the only clue lies with Bazel."
"He seems to know a lot of things that we don't, including this small island hidden in the cracks of history."
"Bazaar is definitely not an immortal. He couldn't have lived for two hundred years, so he must have learned about these things that we don't know from other sources."
"Shakky, do you remember? He said that if the Roger Pirates chose to come to this island, he should help them attract the attention of the World Government."
"In other words, by the time we arrive on this island, the World Government will probably know everything."
"Knowing that the Roger Pirates have arrived on this forbidden island!"
"This is the deal Barzel was talking about!"
"That terrible man, he foresaw this future long ago."
