Chapter 143
The Drake Pirates' member bounty soon spread to all parts of the world, and the name Five Emperor was officially proclaimed.
"Hahaha, it seems that Vermillion is really a threat in the eyes of opposing forces." Drake laughed as she read the news in the newspaper.
"Everyone, come and look. This is news about our Master; even new rewards have been issued."
"Musashi, didn't you complain earlier about your low Bounty? Look, now you've been offered a Bounty of eight hundred million by the Marines, even given the title Strongest Swordswoman in the World."
"Really?!" Sitting sluggishly on the table, Musashi immediately got up and ran towards Drake to see her own Bounty.
"Wow! I, Miyamoto Musashi, am now famous, hehe." A bright smile graced the woman's sweet face.
"And our three new members are amazing. Gilgamesh and Artoria are both valued at one billion five hundred million. Even more astonishing is Semiramis; I didn't expect the Marines to give a Bounty of three billion."
"It seems that Semiramis' Noble Phantasm surprised them." Drake smiled.
"Those three people are the King and Queen, right? Why are they willing to sail with us?" Tatsumaki asked in surprise.
"Haha, why not? Even if they're King and Queen, there's no harm in them sailing together; after all, I don't think they considered themselves Pirates from the start." Drake replied.
"King of Knights... such a person wouldn't want to be a Pirate," Emiya said.
"It's too late. Even if she doesn't consider herself a pirate, the Marines have labeled them pirates." Li Shuwen said.
"I will distribute each of your Bounties. All members now have a minimum Bounty of one hundred million. With this, we have become the Pirates with the highest Bounty in the world." Drake said.
"You were given a Bounty of three billion three hundred million? You have the highest Bounty among us!" Tsunade was surprised when she saw Drake's Bounty.
"Haha, as Captain, of course, my Bounty must be high." Drake puffed out her chest as she said happily.
"However, the highest Bounty is still Boss' Bounty. As the leader of the Blueplanet group, he deserves the nickname Marshal Blue and a Bounty of four billion two hundred million." Dio said.
"Even though he has been given a high Bounty, it's strange that the opponent still underestimates him. In my opinion, the Bounty needs to be increased again."
"It's only a matter of time." Drake responded, "Our journey has just begun; with time, the world will know how strong Vermillion and we are."
"Emiya, please cook something delicious; we must have a banquet! Oh, prepare some wine, too, hehe." Drake asked Emiya with sparkling eyes.
"I think you only want drinks." Emiya shook his head, then went to the kitchen.
"That's great! We can finally drink again!" Tsunade looked delighted, "But... it's a pity Vermillion and Gilgamesh aren't here. Otherwise, we could enjoy Gilgamesh's high-quality wine."
"Indeed." Drake nodded, "But given that their business is over, they will surely return to the Golden Hind soon. For now, let's party first!"
"Oh!!!" Everyone screamed together.
"Why are you guys cheering?" From inside the cabin, Vermillion and Scheherazade came out.
"Vermillion, you finally came!" Drake ran up to her Master and hugged her tightly.
Feeling Drake's warm hug, Vermillion gently smiled as he patted her back, "Sorry for keeping you waiting. The problem on the island has been solved. The castle has been protected with spells, and we have also installed the Teleportation Runes."
"Really? With their magic, I'm sure the safety of the castle will be guaranteed." Drake looked up with a smile.
"Okay, everyone, time to eat!" Emiya chirped.
"Thank you. Hurry up, I can't wait to taste your food!" Drake thanked Emiya.
As Emiya set the food on the table, Gilgamesh and Vermillion brought out several bottles of high-quality wine for everyone to enjoy.
