"Mr. Captain, isn't this okay?"
Dino couldn't bear it anymore. He was already unlucky enough to begin with, yet you added fuel to the fire. Wasn't this deliberately causing conflict?
However, Vlad had always been a person who did things his own way. He had an incomparably firm belief in what he wanted to do. It was very difficult for him to be shaken by the words of outsiders. This man was very stubborn. This description was very appropriate.
"Haha, I'm sorry,"
Vlad laughed loudly, and at the same time, he apologized to the group of Spade Pirates, "But I really can't help it, you guys,"
"Puhahahahaha!"
"The expression on your faces is too funny!"
In his previous life, Vlad liked Ace a lot. In fact, he was no doubt a good person. He was a good brother, a good partner, and a pitiful person.
However, Vlad was not the kind of person who would like to have a good relationship with the character if he really came to this world in his previous life. What a joke. Could the person in the animation be the same as the real person? In his previous life, the person Vlad admired the most in the manga was Black Beard and Akainu. Could it be that he wanted to be friends with these two guys?
What a joke. Vlad was a person who was very open-minded about the two. In his previous life, it was in his previous life. In this life, it was in this life. This was the reason he learned from his father's death.
"Hahaha,"
Unexpectedly, the man named Portgas D Ace was not angry. Instead, he rubbed his head and laughed in response to Vlad's almost mocking apology. "It doesn't matter. In fact, I also find it very funny. After all, it is really too funny to be able to eat 38 million Berry in one meal!"
"Puhaha ---"
Before he finished speaking, the man began to laugh himself, as if his experience was really funny.
Vlad couldn't help but secretly praise him. As expected of a man with the aptitude of a king. Not everyone could have such a broad breadth of mind.
"Sir, did you just say that you have waited for a long time?"
The man who had been watching the show asked with his hands crossed over his chest.
"Eh?"
Vlad pointed at himself in surprise. "Are you talking to me?"
"That's right,"
Deuce did not care about the offense in Vlad's words, but his tone was very calm. "Did you just say that you waited for a long time?"
"Yes, that's right,"
Vlad admitted straightforwardly. "I was planning to leave when you came in, but your arrival made me decide to stay and watch a good show."
"In other words, you know what will happen next? So you are right,"
Deuce looked at Shakuyaku, who was still smoking, and his tone instantly turned cold. "Lady boss, it was you who cheated us, right?"
"What? Cheating?"
Isuka, who had been muttering to herself in a daze, was instantly revived. The way she looked at Shakuyaku was as if she wanted to swallow her whole. For a woman like Miss Isuka, who valued money, it was really a painful thing to pay from her wallet.
"I knew it. Even if Ace is a rice bucket, he can't eat 38 million Berry. Sure enough, you liar!"
"Did you all think that all 38 million Bailey was eaten by Ace? Is your captain like this in your hearts?" Dino, who stood on the side without any sense of presence, silently complained in his heart.
"What? Do you know that we will be cheated?"
As expected of Luffy's brother, Ace was smart and ignored Shakuyaku who cheated them. Instead, he fought with Vlad.
"You are really annoying."
Vlad did not say anything. Was Ace still a hothead? There was still darkness in the heart of the man who had not been baptized by the white beard. There was still a huge difference between him and the warm brother three years later.
"Hu ---"
Slowly spitting out a mouthful of smoke, Shakuyaku's tone was very casual. She did not deceive the nervousness and guilt after being exposed. Instead, her tone was as if she was lying to you. It was your honor, and that was a matter of course.
"Little friends, don't get it wrong. I never said that the price of the food here is the same as outside."
The woman who looked determined to not be able to tell her real age said, "Different restaurants have different prices. This is a very normal thing."
"Normal?"
The face of Isuka instantly turned into the face of a shark. Vlad was amazed. He did not expect that there was such a beauty in this world. As expected of the crew of the elder brother of the captain of straw hat. "How is it normal? Is the price difference of hundreds of times normal?"
"Don't talk nonsense with her, Isuka,"
Deuce's tone was cold and stern. After all, being cheated by someone is not a pleasant experience. "Such an arrogant guy is really rare. Let's go, there is no need to talk to her. ."
"Hey, hey, hey, are you planning to eat without paying?"
Vlad was a little surprised, but it was no wonder. After all, these guys were different from him, a man with foresight. They did not know who Shakuyaku was, just like how Shakuyaku and Rayleigh did not know who Ace was.
"Think about it, young people. This lady boss is not a simple character. In the past, all those who wanted to escape did not have a good ending."
Vlad kindly suggested.
Hearing Vlad's words, Deuce's eyes froze. He knew that what this man said was very likely not a lie. "Ace, stop playing tricks!"
"Aiya, aiya!"
Ace put his hat back on his head with one hand, and his face was full of confidence. "No, do you want to fight? I just finished my meal and do want to exercise."
"Crash!"
The fiendish pirates had a wanton smile on their faces as they stood up one by one.
"Oh?"
Shakuyaku looked interested. "Do you want to run away with violence? Children."
"No,"
"We just want to fight for a reasonable price!"
"Boom!"
The flames rose up, but this time it was not Vlad but Ace. Orange flames emerged from his bare upper body, and the temperature in the bar instantly began to rise. "However, it seems that only force can make you give us a fair treatment."
"Logia type?"
Shakky and Dino, who were not aware of Ace's ability, were a little surprised. They also knew where Ace's self-confidence came from. After all, Logia is rampant in the first half of the Grandline route where Haki is missing.
"Oh, it is really amazing,"
Shakky was a little surprised. "Is it a Logia type of Mera Mera fruit? It hasn't appeared for some years. I didn't expect to have provoked a great guy."
"Pan!"
Ace slapped a stack of money on the table and whispered, "Boss, here is 300,000 Berry. It should be enough for our meal just now."
Behind Ace's handsome back is Isuka's hand that keeps scratching his back. God knows, she is going to renege on the debt, "We won't give you the extra."
Shakky nodded helplessly. "Can I still resist?"
"Your name?"
Ace said, "What is your name?"
