One Piece: The Magician

Chapter 254: There is a trench within a trench

The sky outside had already turned completely dark, but the cabin was still brightly illuminated by the pale yellow light.

After the small episode just now, the Straw Hats' after-dinner meeting finally moved from small talk to the main topic.

"Ahem" Nami cleared her throat and said loudly to her friends: "Okay, since Chopper is here, we should talk about business now."

As she spoke, Miss Navigator leaned down and lowered her voice, revealing a mysterious smile on her fair face.

"Let's discuss how to spend the gold we got back from the empty island."

"Okay" xnEveryone cheered.

Since leaving the sky island, the Straw Hats fell into the naval fortress, and have been busy getting rid of the pursuing navy. Only now can they truly start "sharing the spoils" quietly.

"I must buy a big bronze statue this time"

"Hey, Luffy, we can't put such big things on the Merry." A certain long-nosed man waved his hand: "If you want to buy one, you have to buy a cannon, a cannon."

"Hmph, I can drink enough this time."

"Ingredients, new kitchen utensils, a locked refrigerator, the largest mouse trap, and a durable lighter."

"I want to buy medical books and some medicinal materials."

"Haha" Robin held Besty in his arms and smiled without saying a word.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute." Miss Navigator waved her friends to calm down, and then looked at a certain glasses with a smile.

"Sherlock~~~Can you tell me the truth now?"

Nami rubbed her hands together, and her cooing voice was full of flattery: "How much gold can we get if we convert the gold we brought back from the empty island into Baileys?"

Hua, everyone looked at Sherlock, their eyes full of expectation.

Although most of the gold in the Golden Land was used for construction by Enero, a prodigal thing, the Straw Hats still successfully recovered the Golden Ark after it was blown to pieces by the magician's six-fold divine killing gun. part of it.

The small mountain of gold looked very shocking. It was the first time for Nami to see so much gold, so she couldn't really tell how much it was worth.

Sherlock hesitated for a while and did not speak. He just held out a finger to everyone with a calm expression.

"One is [-] million beli?" Usopp asked tentatively.

Sherlock shook his head.

"Is it one billion Baileys?" Nami covered her mouth in surprise.

"It's 100 billion Baileys." Sherlock corrected, his flat tone as if he was just saying a bunch of meaningless numbers.

"This is just a conservative estimate, because after all, the gold has been resmelted twice, and the quality is generally not very good. Moreover, the most important historical value of the Golden Township has been lost, so the valuation is naturally greatly reduced."

"Ten billion sounds so awesome! How many zeros does that have to be?"

Luffy, Usopp, Chopper, Zoro, and Sanji, who didn't have much idea about money, all looked confused.Although Robin was very surprised, his face still looked calm and calm.

As for a certain financial fanatic

"Ten billion." Nami's mind was instantly occupied by a long string of zeros, and her plump breasts rose and fell violently.She opened her mouth, but she really couldn't utter a complete sentence. Then her body went limp and collapsed to the ground under the astonished eyes of Luffy and others.

"Nami" xnEveryone was shocked.

"Nami, don't die, Nami." The stupid captain looked confused.

"Don't worry Luffy, she just fainted because she was too excited." Zoro curled his lips, thinking that this money-grubbing woman was really hopeless.

"Everyone, get up and let me give artificial respiration to Naomi-san." Sanji stood up suddenly, with a fearless expression on his face that if I don't go to hell, who will go to hell?

"Doctor, where is the doctor? I am"

"Haha" gently stroking the soft fur of the little black cat, Robin looked at the chaotic crowd, still smiling and saying nothing.

"I knew it would be like this, that's why I never dared to tell you before." Looking at Nami, who still had a smile on her face even though she had fainted, Sherlock pushed up his glasses slightly and complained in a low voice:

"It's so stupid"

After a while of panic, Nami finally woke up, and Sherlock also revealed to everyone his arrangements for the gold.

"Gilde Tezzolo"

Usopp tilted his neck and asked in confusion: "Why did you sell this gold to him? Is he specialized in collecting gold?"

"Absolutely." Sherlock rested his elbows on the dining table, crossed his hands in front of his mouth, and the transparent lenses reflected a faint white light.

"Ten billion beli is not a small amount, and ordinary forces cannot eat so much gold at one time. In addition, we are pirates, and the origin of the gold is difficult to explain. If we rush to sell it, the other party will definitely lower the price maliciously. So if I want to exchange for Pele at a fair price, he is the first person I think of."

"Anyway, we are not short of money now, and the gold is very safe with me. We can wait for a while and then cash in the gold, right?"

This is quite true. Ever since Sherlock boarded the pirate ship, the Straw Hats have never had to worry about money matters.

"So that's it?" Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji nodded in confusion.

"Wait a minute, Sherlock." Nami's beautiful big eyes were twinkling with little stars: "Listen to what you mean, isn't that guy named Tezzolo very rich?"

"That person can be described as more than just "very rich," Miss Navigator."

Nico Robin, who transformed into the Grand Line, smiled and patiently explained to everyone: "Gilder Tezzolo, known as the Golden Emperor, is the head of the world's largest entertainment city, Grande Tezzolo, and is also the world's largest entertainment city. The richest man, according to legend, owns 20 Baileys in the world."

"Hey"xn

Everyone was in an uproar. They originally thought that they and others were considered top tycoons with 100 billion Baileys, but they didn't expect that such a crazy god would appear here.

"The number of 20 Pele in the world may be an exaggeration, but there are still probably 20 golds in the world."

Sherlock shook his head and continued: "He was one of my biggest customers before. There are more than a dozen gold mines in the industry under the name of the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce, and most of the gold was purchased by this man. And Not only the East China Sea, he is also buying up gold in several other sea areas. After so many years, God knows how much gold he has owned."

"Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I heard that almost all the amusement parks and casinos in his entertainment city are made of gold. Haha, he is such a willful guy."

Speaking of this, the corners of a certain glasses mouth turned up slightly: "So compared to Shantora on Gaya Island, I think his entertainment city is the real golden land."

"Playground" x3

“Casino, gold”

Luffy, Usopp, Chopper, and Nami suddenly became extremely excited when they heard this, but the reasons for their excitement were different.

"Okay, I've decided."

The stupid captain pressed the straw hat on his head, and a familiar and bright smile appeared on his slightly natural face.

"I must go to that entertainment city to have a good time in the future."

Um, Luffy, although you are right xn

Looking at the captain who was in high spirits, the others looked at me, and I looked at you, and they all felt an extremely uneasy feeling in their hearts.

But why do I feel that when the time comes, you will definitely not just "have fun"? To be continued.
