Pirates: Build a high wall from the East China Sea.

Chapter 498 Face
"10 billion?" Hearing Belmeber's words, Xia Che was confused. "What did you do? Buy another ship?"

"This..." Belmeber smiled awkwardly, with his mouth open as if he wanted to say something but stopped.

Everyone behind him, except Luffy, also raised their heads and looked away, not daring to look at Xia Che.

This made Xia Che even more curious, but before Xia Che could open his mouth to ask.

"We lost 10 billion!" Luffy scratched his head a little embarrassedly and laughed, "Xia Che, can you lend me another 10 billion? Don't worry, I will definitely pay it back with the Great Secret Treasure when the time comes!"

"Wait, let's not talk about the great secret treasure for now!" Xia Che's mouth twitched, looking at the people opposite him, "First, tell me how you lost 10 billion? Where are you now?"

"Let me explain!" Belmeber sighed helplessly, and finally said with gritted teeth, "We are now in Gulan Tesoro. Since we can't find a job, we..."

"So, you guys went gambling?" Xia Che looked at the people who were smiling awkwardly in silence, then sighed with emotion and said in a disappointed tone, "You guys really disappoint me. Going out to sea as pirates is fine, but you actually got addicted to gambling. Are you worthy of your family in the East China Sea, and worthy of everyone who trusts you in the East China Sea? You are corrupt! You are useless! There is no hope!"

As soon as these words fell.

"..."

The Straw Hat Part-time Workers on the opposite side immediately lowered their heads in shame, even Lucci and Kaku who were lurking among them.

only.

The two people who lowered their heads had a slight twinkle in their eyes, [Sure enough, this pirate group has a special relationship with the leader of the East China Sea Navy! ]

When something happens, you can actually contact the leader of the East China Sea Navy directly!

"I'm so sorry!" Hearing what Xia Che said, Belmeber smiled bitterly again and said, "I'm sorry to bother you, but we really have no other choice now. Zoro and Sanji have been arrested by the owner of the casino, and he asked us to collect 10 billion within an hour."

In fact, he, Lucci and Sanji did try to stop this group of guys at the beginning, but suddenly a beautiful woman came to Sanji's stall to buy fried rice, and said she was a staff member of the casino and invited them to come in and play.

He also gave them one million Beli, and when Sanji saw the beautiful woman, he instantly betrayed him. Since he only wanted one million Beli to play with, and they didn't have to spend any money, he agreed.

At first he thought that he would stop playing if he lost all the one million Baileys, or he would stop borrowing money if he won enough, but he never expected the result!
In the end, he fell into the bottomless abyss, lost all his money, and owed 10 billion berries. Both Zoro and Sanji were controlled by the other party, and even...

Belmeber said with emotion, "Sanji's stall has also been confiscated by the other party."

As he spoke, he bent down and said, "Captain Xia Che, please lend us another 10 billion berries. We will definitely pay it back as soon as possible. Zoro and Sanji are our partners, we absolutely cannot just leave them alone!"

"Have Zoro and Sanji been captured by the other party?" Hearing Belmeber's words, Xia Che was stunned again, and then narrowed his eyes, as if he had guessed something, and said, "Gild Tesoro, is he with you?"

This guy is a little dishonest!
"Yes, yes!" Belmeber glanced at the side, then nodded and said without hesitation, "The owner of the casino is right next to me."

"Give him the Den Den Mushi!"

"???"

Although he didn't understand why Chief Shache did this, Belmeber still obediently handed the Den Den Mushi to Tesoro who was waiting with a smile on his face.

"Hahaha." Tesoro took the Den Den Mushi and laughed loudly. Then he said in an enthusiastic tone, "I didn't expect that these little guys are actually your people! I'm so sorry, so sorry!"

"Brother Tesoro, this is a bit unfair!" Xia Che did not care about what Tesoro said about the Straw Hat Pirates being someone else, and said with emotion, "You actually used this method to cheat a few young people?" "Oh, brother Xia Che, what do you mean?" Tesoro was stunned, and then said happily, "Brother, I gave them a million Baileys to play with, but they couldn't control their greed. Can you blame me for this?"

"Lucky……"

"..." Hearing Xia Che's words, although Xia Che had not finished speaking, Tezoro's pupils shrank immediately. Looking at Xia Che with a smile in front of him, he suddenly understood in his heart...

This guy really knew?!
But how on earth did he know?
You know, even in Gulan, there are only a few people who know Bakara's abilities. Could it be that someone around him has been bribed?
"Sorry, sorry! This is indeed my fault, my fault. I was just joking with those guys." But Tezoro recovered quickly. After laughing loudly, he said in a meaningful tone, "It seems that Brother Xia Che really values ​​these guys!"

"Of course, even though those guys may seem unreliable, they are my dearest friends and brothers! Please give me some face and let them go!"

"Okay, I'll give you a favor this time and I won't take the 10 billion!" Tezuolo smiled generously, and then said, "But when will Brother Xia Che come over? I can also prepare a good reception for you. I miss you very much!"

"As soon as possible! As soon as possible! I've been busy lately. Once I'm done with it, I'll go to my brother's place right away!"

"Then I'll be waiting for you." Tezulo nodded with satisfaction, then threw the Den Den Mushi in his hand to the excited Belmeber, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that you two actually had such a relationship. Why didn't you tell me earlier? In this case, you can play as you like, and I won't care if you ask for money. Don't worry, I'll have someone release your friends right now!!"

"Thank you very much, Boss Tesoro!" Hearing that everything was stable, Belmeber became excited, and then he picked up the Den Den Mushi in his hand and said with gratitude, "Chief Shache, it's really..."

But before he could finish speaking.

"The 10 billion will be recorded as your debt!" Xia Che said with an iron face, "Don't think I'm asking for money. What is a mere 10 billion to the East China Sea Navy? I'm doing this for your own good, to teach you a lesson. How dare you even gamble?!"

The words fell.

Belmeber: ...

Lucci and Kaku: ...

Tezulo: ...

Especially Tezoro's mouth twitched.

Is this a good relationship or just an average one?

He clearly didn't even want to accept the 10 billion, but this guy still has the nerve to ask the Straw Hat Pirates to pay it back?

"Hehehe! Don't worry, I will become the Pirate King and find the great treasure to return it." Luffy nodded with a smile, "Xia Che, you are such a good person!"

"I believe in you, keep going! By the way, don't forget this month's loan. If nothing else, I'll hang up."

As he spoke, there was a beep on the other end, and he hung up the Den Den Mushi without hesitation.

"..." This made Tesoro speechless again, but he immediately looked at the Straw Hat Workers beside him, smiled awkwardly, and said, "Hahaha, I didn't expect that Brother Xia Che actually thinks so highly of you! He is always trying to find ways to sharpen you!"

Damn, no wonder they can make so much money even without the Golden-Gold Fruit!
So shameless!
