One Piece: Groudon the Beasts

Chapter 67 Fifty Billion Berries!
Skull Castle, third-floor stage.

Under the neon lights, Queen of the Geisha and Little Purple made their appearance, kicking off the first event of the grand banquet.

Golden Kagura!

"Queen! Queen! Queen!"

The pirates cheered excitedly, their shouts rising in waves, instantly igniting the atmosphere befitting a grand banquet.

In terms of creating a lively atmosphere and putting on a good show, Mr. Gekko is undoubtedly No. 1 in the Beasts Pirates, not to mention he also has Komurasaki's help.

Inside the grand banquet hall.

Jhin looked at Quinn singing and dancing outside the door, his eyes full of disdain and helplessness, then turned and went to the small banquet hall to deliver a message.

"Brother Kaido, everyone's here."

"Okay, okay!"

Kaido got up and went to the hall. The first thing he saw was his daughter Yamato, who was engrossed in eating. His brows immediately furrowed.

Eat, eat, eat, just eat!

Kaido turned to look at Goode, who was drinking, and his furrowed brows immediately relaxed. Compared to his own daughter, this child was much more pleasing to the eye.

I wish Goode were his son.

Kaido shook his head wearily, reached for a large wine bowl, and Black Maria, who was standing to the side, immediately poured him a drink.

"Hey hey hey, everyone's here."

"Boss Kaido!"

Everyone raised their glasses enthusiastically.

Opportunities to drink with Kaido are rare!
Kaido's smile broadened as he raised his wine bowl high.

"cheers!"

"Oh oh oh!"

Everyone drank their drinks in one gulp.

Kaido sat down cross-legged, his eyes blazing.

“Protect the Emperor, tell me today’s schedule.”

"Got it."

The royalist jumped down from the ceiling, held up the process sheet, and read it aloud.

"Right now, Lord Quinn is presiding over the Golden Kagura."

"After the golden Kagura ends, the three top generals and the representative of Wano Country will toast, followed by speeches from Lord Kaido and General Yamato."

"Then, Lord Goode will announce this year's list of tribute gifts for the general, as well as a special program that will be kept secret for the time being."

"Next up is the performance by the Shin-hit fighters against the Flying Six. The specific rules for the challenge will be set by Lord Goode."

"above!"

The process is similar to before, the main difference is that the toasting recipients on the big signboard have changed, and there is also the Flying Six challenge.

Goode was in charge of all the preparations for these programs, because he was the only one among the officers who stayed on Oni Island and had enough time to prepare for the fire festival.

"it is good."

Kaido nodded, a hint of anticipation rising in his heart. He laughed loudly, "Today is the annual Fire Festival, so there's no need to follow the rules. Just relax and enjoy yourselves, don't worry about me. Drink and celebrate to your heart's content!"

"Thank you, Boss Kaido."

Everyone immediately relaxed and enjoyed the banquet with smiles on their faces until Quinn returned, beaming with joy.

"Brother Kaido, I'm back!"

Quinn, with the courtesan Xiao Zi in his arms, grinned from ear to ear. As he passed Goode, he gave Goode a wink, indicating that he was quite satisfied.

Goode nodded slightly and looked at Xiao Zi.

The woman smiled radiantly, showing no sign of reluctance, and shifted all her tactics from dealing with the giant snake to Quinn.

Since you enjoy serving people so much, then you might as well be a servant for life. You can't waste your time before you've squeezed every last drop of value out of me.

"It's the courtesan, Komurasaki!"

When the real fighters saw Xiao Zi, their eyes immediately lit up with hearts.

As the number one courtesan in Wano Country, who wouldn't want to get close to her? Unfortunately, it seems that Komurasaki has become Queen's woman.

What a terrible waste!

Feeling the envious gazes around him, Quinn became even more smug, wishing he could drag Little Purple around a few times to show off.

"Mwahaha, Brother Kaido, isn't it time for a toast?"

"Yes."

Kaido gave a signal with his eyes.

Three large billboards stepped forward simultaneously, instantly creating a powerful sense of pressure.

On the Wano Country side, four timid young men entered the hall and stood before the three big shots like little bean sprouts.

"Um???"

Question marks appeared above everyone's heads.

Who are these people?! They look familiar!

The four members of the Green Caterpillar Clan were trembling with fear. They had never imagined they would have the chance to toast with the big boss. They introduced themselves, their bodies shaking.

"Aomushi under Lord Goode, now serving as the Daimyo of Suzugo!"

"Red Sparrow, under Lord Goode, is now serving as the Daimyo of Rabbit Island!"

"The white dog under Lord Goode, currently serving as the Daimyo of Kuri."

"Tea Rat under Lord Goode, now serving as Daimyo Nozomi!"

The name of the surrounding villages!
The officers stared in disbelief, then all turned to look at Goode, who was drinking. Even Kaido and the three top officers were somewhat taken aback.

They remembered that these four were the same people who had shouted "Runti" with Goode on the day they returned from the expedition.

It seems to be a support fan club for Runti.

No way, a few nobodys who aren't even cadres have become high-ranking officials? This is utterly outrageous.

What's even more outrageous is that Goode actually appointed a bunch of nobodys as daimyo, making no attempt to hide his nepotism.

The real fighters' gazes toward Goode instantly heated up; this lord really knows how to take care of his own people!

Lord Goode, do you need any more keychains?

We are super obedient!

The atmosphere became quite strange for a moment.

"What are you all looking at me for?"

Goode shrugged and urged.

"Cheers, there are still several procedures to go."

"."

Jhin coldly withdrew his gaze and silently raised his wine bowl. Seeing this, Quinn and Jack also raised their glasses, feeling uncomfortable as well.

"Ding!"

After the toast, the four members of the Green Caterpillars, who had experienced what it was like to be important, quickly ran back behind Goode and sat up straight.

They were terrified.

"Hee hee hee, it's our turn!"

Kaido got up and walked out the door. Next was his speech with Yamato, although this speech was nothing new.

Goode quickly nudged Yamato.

"Follow me quickly."

"Ah, oh!"

Yamato put down the grilled meat and followed Kaido onto the stage, where he read his morale-boosting speech amidst the cheers of the pirates.

The two returned quickly.

All eyes turned to Goode again; they wanted to see how many gifts he had prepared.

"Clap!"

Goode clapped his hands in acknowledgment.

A dozen or so warriors, their foreheads bulging with veins, carried a tightly wrapped, incredibly heavy, mysterious object into the banquet hall.

"Oh!"

The mysterious gift landed heavily on the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

You can tell it's heavy just by the sound it makes.

However, this small amount of food caused Kaido and his three top lieutenants to frown, and the other officers were also somewhat dissatisfied.

"Just one gift?"

As is customary, the offerings sent by the great serpent were enough to fill the grand banquet hall, including not only gold and silver jewelry, but also a large number of precious items such as fine wine, furs, and handicrafts.

The total value is close to 20 billion pegories!
Goode approached the gifts and reached out to grab a corner of the tarpaulin.

"Lord Kaido, this is a gift that General Yamato has carefully prepared for you. It is a divine dragon crafted by the skilled artisans of Wano Country using gold worth 50 billion Berries!"

"Wow!"

The tarpaulin was lifted, and a golden dragon cast from molten gold appeared in view, exactly the same as Kaido's transformed appearance.

The dazzling golden light almost blinded everyone.

The cadres were dumbfounded!
Kaido was stunned speechless.

"You just said... a... how many Pele?!"

"50 million!"

Goode smiled and held up five fingers.

Sending a bunch of weird and useless things is so cliché!

If you're going to give a gift, give gold!
Give me money!

The cruder, the better!
Let's give these country bumpkin pirates a little numerical shock!
He wanted all the members of the Beasts to understand one thing: he, Groudon Good, possessed the most coveted power in the world.

Cash ability!
