Partnership

"I'm Jenne Richard, and this is my butler, Uncle Reed," Jenne answered.

Even now, she couldn't believe what she was seeing; she had no idea Neo was so strong. She was relieved and thankful that Neo helped her out of a bad situation. Reed also introduced himself and told him how much he appreciated his help.

"So, why did your stepmother hire pirates to kill you, Jenne?" Neo questioned.

Jenne began to narrate her experience, saying that her father, Mr. Richards, was a successful businessman in East Blue. Her mother died when she was young, so her father doted on her a lot. Everything was going well until the day her father decided to marry another woman Mrs. Dorry. She was twelve years old at that time, and Mr. Morgan thought she needed a mother figure to look after her. When Mr. Morgan had to go to work, Mrs. Dorry was very harsh to her but she didn't complain. Unexpectedly, her father became very ill a couple of years later, and doctors have given him only a few days to live. She had no idea what was going on, but when she woke up that night and walked by her father's room, she heard them having a fierce argument. Mrs. Dorry was furiously demanding Mr. Morgan transfer all of his assets into her name, threatening to kill Jenne if he did not agree. Her father yelled at the top of his lungs, his eyes bloodshot "When all of a sudden I started feeling weaker, Reed already had his doubts about whether or not you poisoned me. So, I had already written my will and left everything to my lovely daughter. If you dare to kill her, all of my money will go to charity and you won't get a belli, you bi*tch."

"Oh, Is that so? But I have already made plans." Mrs. Dorry laughed in a sinister way, and then she strangled Mr. Morgan to death.

In shock at everything she had seen and heard, Jenne quickly fled to her uncle Reed, her father's closest confidante, and told him what happened.

Reed was very sad and vowed to protect his master's only legacy. After a few failed attempts on Jenne's life by local thugs and pirates, the duo boarded a ship and fled the island. After telling her story, Jenne began crying, and Reed soon followed suit.

Neo listened to her carefully, and he got the impression that the world of One Piece is very dangerous and lawless. Since the marines are focused on fighting pirates, there are no police to deal with smaller crimes. Most of the time, kings are busy with their lavish lifestyles, while the common people suffer.

N: "What are guys planning to do in the future?"

"Frankly, I have no idea; our expertise lies solely in business. Maybe we can start over somewhere else "Reed answered back.

N: "What about getting revenge for your master's death"

R: "I'm sure young miss will be successful someday if she grows upright. She had learnt business from Master and has always been smart with money. I just have to keep supporting her like I assisted Master Morgan."

Neo thought about it carefully and said, "I can help you get revenge right now, but I have a condition."

Jenne and Reed looked at each other, and they both had the same thought. If someone strong like Neo could help her, avenging her father's death would be very easy, and Jenne wouldn't have to worry about sudden attacks like this in the future.

Jenne replied, "Neo, Please help me get revenge for my father's murder. I will pay whatever I can."

Neo answered with a serious look, "I have no desire for money since truth be told, I want to make major investments in the future and I need someone to manage my wealth. I'll take care of your enemy and back you up in business, so I want you both to work for me."

Reed and Jenne were shocked to hear this proposal and started discussing it with each other. Neo was so strong considering his age and he will get even stronger with time, so having a strong backer will be very helpful. Meanwhile, Neo has brought the surviving pirates on board and tied them up.

"How much are we going to get paid?" Jenne asked. Even though Neo helped her, she would rather not be treated unfairly and taken advantage of.

Neo stood face to face smiling and told her, "You will not receive any money. Instead, if you agree, you will own 30% of the business."

"We agree!" Jenne replied right away. She was overjoyed because not only would she get her revenge for her father's death, but she would also own a part in the business. It would be foolish to refuse, and she expressed her appreciation to Neo for his kindness. She made up her mind to give her all at work and never disappoint him again.

Neo knows that giving shares to officers and CEOs was a common practice in a capitalist society. If their wealth is on the line, not only will they work harder, but they will also be more efficient in their work.

After their deal, Neo and the other two searched the pirate ship for valuables. They found almost 3 million bellies in the captain's cabin. After that, Neo burned the ship and continued to sail to the next island onboard Jenne's ship.
