Chapter 8: Bounty of One Billion!

By the time Magellan and a group of jailers chased to the dock, the ship Jon and the others were on had already sailed away from the shore.

Magellan's forehead was throbbing, his face was keep changing from blue and white.

Anger, regret, unwillingness, worry.

All emotions mixed together, this warden of Impel Down erupted with a roar like thunder.

"Jon Joestar!"

"Achoo!"

On the deck, Jon sneezed inexplicably.

Rubbing his nose, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

"Who is saying I'm handsome behind my back?"

Three days later.

"Finally, we have left the Calm Belt."

Shaking off the water droplets on his body, Jinbei, who had just jumped back onto the deck from the sea, said to everyone, "Next, we will sail by wind."

Jon handed over a cup of hot water at the right time.

"Jinbei, thank you for your hard work."

Jinbei smiled, not being polite.

They are all brothers, it would be estranged to see outsiders.

Just then, Ivankov wiped away tears and said, "Jon boy, Ace boy, it seems we will be parting soon, woo woo, I'm a bit reluctant."

Since they have already left the Calm Belt, it means that they will soon be able to find a suitable island to land.

'Okama King' and Jon and others are in a cooperative relationship, they can't always stay on the ship.

Speaking of this, Jinbei also mentioned.

"After landing, I have to go... there are some things I need to deal with."

Ace glanced at Jon.

"That... uh..."

"You too?"

Jon directly interrupted Ace.

"Yes, I need to hurry back to the Moby Dick."

Ace scratched his eyebrows.

After a pause, his eyes brightened, "Jon, why don't you go back with me, I guarantee that Pops and Marco and the others will like you, you are my savior!"

Hearing this, Jon fell into thought.

Escaping from Impel Down, his legend level soared a big chunk, just a little bit short of rising to level 3.

Once he rises to level 3, Jon can establish a 'Directional Door', return to his original world, and continue to be the young master of the Joestar family.

So the question is, where should the 'Directional Door' be established?

If you decide not to come to this world in the future, anywhere is fine.

The main thing is that Jon doesn't want to give up the opportunity to become stronger.

'Marine's Rokushiki', 'Armament Haki', and the soon-to-be-acquired 'Observation Haki'.

Which reward is not good?

They're all super good!

In that case, the location of the 'Directional Door' needs to be carefully considered. Honestly speaking, the main ship of the Whitebeard Pirates is indeed a good choice.

"Okay."

After careful consideration, Jon still decided to go to the Moby Dick with Ace.

In addition to establishing the 'Directional Door', he also wanted to see what kind of spirit the 'World's Strongest Man' had.

"Haha, great!"

Ace was overjoyed.

With a companion, the journey will not be lonely.

And Jon is strong, acting with him, for safety considerations, is much better than being alone.

The luck of several people is better than one.

After leaving the Calm Belt, they found an island where they could land after only a day's sailing.

Jinbei and Ivankov waved goodbye.

Before parting, Jinbei specifically told Jon that if he had any troubles he couldn't solve in the future, he could go to Fishman Island to find him.

Jon nodded with a smile.

The group of four became a group of two.

For a while, Jon was still a little unaccustomed.

But soon, he threw that little thought behind his head and enjoyed the humanistic scenery of the other world with all his heart and soul.

"Fresh fish! Only three hundred Berries!"

"Good swords, good swords, a must-have for everyone."

"Just out of the oven, this cheese cake is fragrant and soft!"

"Does anyone need a newspaper?"

'Luji Town', a vibrant port city.

Upon entering the town, Jon immediately noticed the skull and crossbones flags hanging on both sides of the street.

Ace confidently said, "Don't worry, the navy won't come after us here.

Because, this is 'Whitebeard's' territory!"

As everyone knows, apart from 'Red Hair Shanks', the remaining Pirate Emperors all love to fight over territory.

As an old 'Four Emperors', the power of the Whitebeard Pirates is definitely one of the best!

"Alright, stop looking, let's go find the town mayor first, and then have a good meal."

Ace hooked Jon's shoulder, "These past few days, we've been eating dry rations and Sea Kings on the ship, my mouth is almost tasteless."

You have the nerve to say that?

Jon tugged at the corner of his mouth.

If it weren't for Jinbei, the little fishing expert, with your appetite, you probably wouldn't make it out of the Calm Belt, and you'd gnaw the ship's board away.

The mayor's house was not hard to find.

With almost no effort, Jon and Ace found the old mayor wearing thick glasses.

Seeing the two of them, the old mayor fell straight off his rocking chair.

"You! You guys!"

"Old man, don't get excited, I'm Portgas D. Ace, the second division captain of the Whitebeard Pirates."

Ace helped up the old mayor, and pointed to Jon, "And this one, is my good brother..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the old mayor shouted out.

"'Madman'! Jon Joestar!"

Huh?

Madman?

What a bad nickname!

Our Joestar family has been gentlemen for generations, we can't carry this bad name!

Jon showed a kind smile, "Old man, did you misunderstand something?"

"There can be no mistake!"

The old mayor swallowed nervously.

"I... I saw you in the newspaper yesterday!"

Jon and Ace looked at each other.

Taking this opportunity, the old mayor ran into the house, took out yesterday's newspaper and the bounty issued by the navy.

Jon took the bounty.

What caught his eye was his own handsome face.

Ace clicked his tongue, took the newspaper, and read it word by word.

"'Madman' Jon Joestar, four days ago, sneaked into the great prison 'Impel Down', released countless serious criminals, killed the warden of Impel Down, Shiryu, fooled the warden of Impel Down, Magellan, the crime is unforgivable, hence this bounty is issued.

Whoever delivers Jon Joestar to Marineford, dead or alive, will be rewarded with one billion Berries."

One billion!

Oh My Goodness, my life is quite valuable.

Jon pinched his eyebrows.

Although he had expected that he would be bountied by the navy sooner or later, he didn't expect this day to come so soon.

"One billion! Awesome, awesome, my bounty is only five hundred million, as a newcomer, you should have broken the bounty record."

Having gotten familiar with Jon, Ace's attitude became casual.

Jon didn't have much to say, he shook his head expressionlessly.

"Low."

What, You are not satisfied with one billion bounty for the first time?

Ace excitedly said, "This way, Pops will totally like you. How about just joining into the Whitebeard Pirates crew? Let's make 'Whitebeard' a legend worldwide, together!"

Join the Whitebeard Pirates?

Better not.

Just thinking about the scene of Whitebeard smiling and hugging him, Jon felt a vague stomachache.

He doesn't have the habit of recognizing fathers.
