----------
The most famous bar on Pleasure District.
[Girls' Ship]
Daichi walked into the bar, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar bar facilities, and in a trance, it was as if he had come from the Middle Ages to modern society.
Spotlights, dance floor, bar counter.
Almost identical to a modern bar.
The girls in the bar were all dressed exquisitely and coolly, and their looks were all very good, which made people feel overjoyed just by looking at them.
Seeing the scene, Daichi almost shed tears.
Wano Country was so backward that it was hard to find even a light bulb, and Onigashima was even worse; not to mention the harsh conditions, all he saw all day were big men with hairy chests.
If he traveled far to Hachinosu, they were all abstract pirates, and even the wine they drank was low-quality malt liquor that hadn't been refined.
What kind of hard life did he live before!
Daichi wiped his tears, sat angrily on a high stool, and snapped his fingers at the bartender, who was wearing a small suit and wiping a glass goblet.
"Bartender, a cup of cappuccino!"
"Customer, we don't sell coffee here."
The bartender shrugged.
"The coffee shop is next door."
"Uh."
Daichi almost stopped.
He had gone to the wrong channel.
Daichi decided to be more composed and asked with a smile, "What kind of drinks do you have here? Can you recommend some to me?"
"Tequila, Martini, Old Fashioned, Bloody Mary..."
Like reciting a menu, the bartender rattled off a string of drink names. He had seen too many country bumpkin pirates like the one in front of him.
Pirates who come to Girls' Ship for the first time are basically like this, startled and surprised, and often like to pretend they know a lot, but they haven't seen the world!
However, the customer is God!
The bartender put down the goblet and showed a friendly smile: "Customer, as long as it's a high-end brand liquor, we have it all here. If you're not satisfied, I can also mix some unique flavored drinks for you."
"Enough, then give me a barrel of Tequila!"
Daichi beamed with joy.
Just hearing these high-class liquor names made him overjoyed. His current status should be matched with a high-quality life.
When his community is built, he'll also set up a high-end bar!
"A barrel?"
The bartender's smile froze.
Did he hear wrong?
"Yes, a barrel!"
Daichi slapped a wad of Berries on the bar counter.
Who are you looking down on?
He has money!
When he drank with others, which one wasn't starting with a barrel? Small cups weren't even enough for rinsing, how could he drink to his heart's content?
Crude pirate!
The bartender cursed in his heart, but looking at the thick stack of Berries, he decided to suppress his dissatisfaction.
Pirates are all like this, pirates are all like this!
After reminding himself several times, the bartender quickly adjusted his state and bowed with a smiling face.
"Sir, please wait a moment."
"Alright, alright."
Daichi was even more satisfied.
Not only is the environment of this bar good, but the service is also amazing.
Perhaps seeing Daichi's financial strength, the initially somewhat disdainful young ladies immediately gathered around.
"Pirate brother, want to dance?"
"Come on!"
"Brother, you're so handsome."
Ehehe~~
Daichi chuckled and half-heartedly allowed himself to be pulled into the dance floor by the young ladies, twisting his waist and happily sticking close to them.
This is heaven!
In the private seating area on the second floor.
Looking at Daichi dancing happily, Stussy was momentarily speechless.
Is this silly guy really Daichi the Destroyer?
She originally thought he was a difficult person, but she didn't expect him to be like this, which made her a little disappointed.
The masked man sitting opposite her spoke.
"Don't underestimate him, Stussy. According to the intelligence I've received, that man is very astute and cannot be tempted by women. His current appearance is most likely a disguise."
"Oh?"
Stussy raised her eyebrows slightly.
The man sitting opposite her was at the same level as her, a CP0 special agent, and his access to intelligence would not be less than hers.
The masked man shook his head: "The change on Hachinosu was caused by that man. Even Whitebeard and the Marines were schemed against by him. Don't be deceived by his appearance."
"Sorry, Guernica."
Stussy was startled.
Indeed, she had just let her guard down.
She had seen too many lecherous men and rarely misjudged them. The main reason was that Daichi the Destroyer didn't look like he was acting at all.
If it was acting, it was too good.
Thinking about it carefully now, if he didn't have astonishing acting skills, how could that man have easily gained the favor of the Whitebeard Pirates and played the captains around?
What a cunning man, he perfectly displayed the pirates' greedy and lecherous side, without a single flaw.
Guernica said in a deep voice: "Our mission this time is not just to trade, but also to gather clear intelligence on that man."
"I understand."
Stussy nodded.
Regarding the known intelligence about Daichi, the most important piece was that he could contend with Kizaru. Such powerful combat strength,
They knew nothing about it, which was definitely a dereliction of duty.
Abilities, preferences, origins...
Everything must be thoroughly investigated.
Just then, three conspicuous figures entered the bar.
Oven, Mondor, Galette.
"Linlin's children are here."
Stussy looked at Oven and the others.
She had secretly sold Caesar's information to Linlin for a simple reason: Linlin wanted Caesar to produce the giant drug.
The World Government had been secretly attempting human gigantification experiments but had never succeeded. The beast-men that traded with the Beast Pirates were products of failed gigantification experiments.
The World Government could not use the intellectually inferior beast-men.
With huge financial investment and no visible returns, plus having to consider Vegapunk's emotional issues, the World Government could only suspend the experiment.
But not long ago, a major accident occurred at Punk Hazard.
Upon receiving the news, Big Mom immediately sent people to find Caesar, and Pleasure District, which had close cooperation with her, also received the commission.
The World Government naturally hoped to continue the gigantification experiment and could transfer the research costs to Big Mom. Coincidentally, Caesar, who loved pleasure, came to Pleasure District.
Thus, the current situation came about.
"I've got a good idea."
Stussy's red lips curled up.
At this moment, in the main hall.
Daichi was dancing with the young ladies when his peripheral vision suddenly caught sight of Oven and his group. His movements couldn't help but stiffen. Oven and the other two also saw Daichi.
No other reason, he was too conspicuous.
It was hard not to notice his shining muscles.
Enemies meeting, particularly awkward.
They stared at each other for about ten seconds.
Daichi pushed away the young lady in his arms, silently left the stage, walked to the bar on the left, picked up a barrel of wine, and started drinking.
He had just put on a cool and domineering act in front of them, only to be seen in this dissolute state.
How embarrassing.
Oven and the other two silently walked towards the resting area on the right.
They had just been severely beaten by Daichi on the ship, and they didn't expect to meet him again; how could they have the face to look up?
Both sides went about their own business, as if they didn't know each other at all, but they both instinctively became much quieter.
Saw nothing.JPG.
After a while, a young lady came up to Daichi and whispered in his ear, "Mr. Daichi, Stussy would like to invite you to the second floor."
"Mm."
Daichi's spirits lifted.
Time to leave, time to leave.
