The White Stone Island was just like its name. More than sixty percent of the stones here were pure white. This kind of stone was particularly strange. After going through special processing, it could actually be refined into gunpowder. Because of this, Shoichi Irie listed this island as one of the most suitable islands for the Vongola Family expansion at this time.
Gunpowder was a form of currency used in transactions. As long as there was sufficient technology to refine it, then the amount of gunpowder stored on this island would bring enough profit for Vongola Family to develop in the long run.
"So, the recently famous Vongola Family is here to take this island from me?"
There was a middle-aged man whose skin was so dark that he might be invisible at night, whose eyes were like a viper staring at the baby in front of him. "If you want my territory, then ask your Family's Boss to come here personally to discuss it. For a reasonable offer, I can give up this island. However..."
"Is Vongola Family trying to mock me by sending a baby like you? Although my bounty is nowhere near Vongola Giotto, I still have four hundred and ten million Belly on my head!" "Unlike those bastards who got a high bounty for indiscriminate kills, my bounty is because of my strength!"
Captain Taurus, the captain of Thorn Pirates and also the current ruler of White Stone Island. Even in the New World, he was considered a powerful pirate. Moreover, he had already sailed out to the sea early. He was already a pirate since the Three Pirates Era and has survived up until now without relying on anyone.
Whether it was strength or other aspects, this guy is absolutely not weak!
"You dare to look down on Reborn-sensei!" At this time, Crowley took a step forward and looked straight at Taurus without fear.
In the entire Vongola Family, the person he respected the most was Giotto, followed by Reborn, who taught him. Seeing this guy in front of him looking down on Reborn, even if he knew that the opponent was a big pirate with a bounty of four hundred and ten million, he could not hold back the anger in his heart.
Moreover, he knew that although Reborn had the appearance of a baby, his strength was not to be looked down on.
In the past, the people from the World Government came to Secon Island. Among them were capable fighters that the rookies like Crowley could not handle, but those guys could not even touch Reborn!
"Don't mind it, Crowley."
Reborn waved his hand, indicating that Crowley did not have to get agitated. He smiled at Taurus and said, "I understand that being looked down sure is not pleasant. However, I am not here to look down on you. In fact, us Vongola Family thinks highly of you. Otherwise, a pirate like you wouldn't be allowed to see me at all."
"What did you say?" Taurus's smile instantly disappeared. A thick and thorny vine immediately covered his hands, showing the intention of killing Reborn and others.
"I'm just stating a fact. By the way, if it were Giotto who came here, you wouldn't have the chance to speak now."
Reborn tried to negotiate with Taurus for a bit. "As for the price you mentioned, I can give you an answer. In my opinion, this offer will definitely satisfy you. To be precise, no one can refuse this offer."
"Oh? Is it gold? Treasure? or Devil Fruit? As long as you offer a sufficient price, everything can be discussed."
As soon as he heard that he would not be able to refuse the offer, Taurus suddenly became interested. He was a very orthodox pirate. Dreams and perseverance did not exist in him.
In his eyes, only benefits were eternal, so as long as others could offer him something worthwhile, he would accept it even if people looked down on him.
"Your life! You wouldn't refuse this offer, right? If you hand over the White Stone Island now, Vongola Family will let you go, otherwise..."
Reborn's face suddenly became scary, and his eyes flashed with a fierce color. A terrible murderous aura burst out from his baby-sized body and instantly overwhelmed the Thorns Pirates in front of him: "I guess you'll be buried on this island forever!"
How was this an appropriate offer?
It was simply a threat!
Eh... haha... haha... haha... haha....................
Taurus was stunned for a moment, then laughed. "Using my life to make a deal with me? Who taught you to joke like this? Haha, it almost made my stomach ache from laughing. It seems that the so-called Vongola Family is no big deal. Go home and suck on your mom's tits, little baby. I will twist your head off if you keep wasting my time!"
"Master Reborn, even if you can endure this guy's rudeness, I will never let him go!" On the way here, you said you'd leave the battle to Enel and me, so please step aside and watch the results of our training!"
Crowley was furious. He could not tolerate Taurus's insult at Reborn.
Enel held a long silver stick in his hand. He slowly walked to Crowley's side. He did not care about Taurus's insult at Reborn, but he did not allow anyone to sully the name of Vongola Family. To him, Vongola Family was a light that illuminated his life, and Giotto was the god in his heart.
And the words "Vongola Family is no big deal" made him snap.
"Ha? You won't let me go? Do you know who you are talking to? If you keep this up, I will make you regret coming to this place."
The reason why Taurus had been tolerating Reborn and the others was not because the baby and two young men in front of him posed a threat to him but because he was worried about Vongola Family. After being a pirate for so long, he learned that he could live well in this chaotic era only by being cautious enough.
Vongola, Giotto, who was offered a bounty of 970,000,000, was not a person to be trifled with!
At this moment, Reborn's eyes swept over Crowley and Enel...
"Fight well, you two. You carry the name of Vongola on your back, understand?"
