One Piece: The World King Who Emerged from the White Town

This is obviously a kind of 'fun' too!

Abel, who had unexpectedly stumbled into this circle, could only think that these people really knew how to play the game!

He had never been to such a high-end place in both of his lives. Today, he finally saw how the big shots who truly control wealth and power usually spend their time and have fun.

And this is just in Beihai, a place that many people consider a 'small place' or 'rural area,' yet they've managed to come up with so many creative ideas.

It's hard to imagine what it would be like in places like the Grand Line or the New World.

To be honest, if it weren't for the casino owner giving Doflamingo face, he and Baby-5 might not have been able to get in here based solely on their status as Donquixote Family executives.

With a critical and analytical attitude, Abel first tried the buffet, and then his eyes lit up!

This quality is excellent!

Then, ignoring the strange looks from those around him, he sat down with Baby-5 and started eating.

That's the downside of going on business trips to other places: the food is bad, and you're never quite full.

He finally got his hands on it, and now he's eating to his heart's content!

Baby-5's thinking was even simpler: Abel told me to eat it, so I ate it, and it really was delicious!

The food here is all for entertaining wealthy and powerful people, so the quality is definitely subject to strict checks. The chefs hired are all top-notch, like those who have won culinary competitions, so it's impossible for it not to be delicious.

Moreover, the spot Abel chose was perfect because he could see the live broadcast from VIP room 444 just by looking up.

This makes it even more 'superficial', achieving the goal of doing both without any problems.

The first gambling game in VIP room 444 was almost over...

"Hahaha, in my hometown, everyone calls me the 'Pool Prince.' Today, I'm taking all the money on this pool table!"

"Honey, you're amazing! Muma~"

Looking at the only remaining white ball on the table, worth five million Berries, the blond-haired man's laughter was exceptionally arrogant.

The woman next to him generously gave him a passionate kiss.

Then he received another 100 million Berries from the secretary.

According to the rules, the secretary kicked off first, but missed, and then it was the blond guy's turn.

The blond guy was indeed skilled, and with a bit of luck, he managed to pot one ball after another until only the last white ball remained on the table.

But once the golden cue ball came to a stop, the blond-haired man's smile faded.

Because there's a dreadful black ball near the easiest hole to hit.

He wasn't absolutely certain he would pot the white ball.

If the black ball is brought in as well, not only will all the money we have now be meaningless, but we will also lose our lives.

"It's not worth it... Never mind, let's try something else."

Huang Mao muttered something to himself, and to play it safe, he chose a more difficult approach, aiming at the last remaining white ball.

Bang!

The golden cue ball struck the white ball precisely...

Everyone watched nervously.

Closer, closer, there it is!

Huang Mao was very excited, watching as the white ball was about to fall into the pocket, but at the last moment the angle was just a little off, hitting the pocket opening and bouncing out again.

"Ugh!"

A collective sigh rippled through the room.

Although the burly man and the bespectacled younger brother were both unhappy with the blond guy, they actually hoped he would win since there was no immediate conflict of interest between them.

After all, they were on the same side as Huang Mao; their only 'enemy' was the beautiful woman sent by the casino.

"Tch, almost there. Fine, I'll let you play one round."

The blond-haired man returned to his seat dismissively, still unaware of what missing the shot meant.

The secretary, with her blonde ponytail, walked over with a confident smile and, before anyone could react, casually sank a red ball.

The blond-haired man jumped to his feet, looking extremely nervous.

He almost forgot that he was gambling with his life!

Every time a red ball is scored, it means he has to lose a part of his body.

What is it?

The blond-haired man scanned the remaining red balls on the table. "Hands, feet... and even kidneys are still there. Great, it was 'hair' that went in!"

After confirming that the red ball was just a hair, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief; in just that short time, his back had been soaked with sweat.

"The first one, a strand of hair, you're in luck!"

Then suddenly two burly men in suits wearing sunglasses entered the room. Without saying a word, they forced the blond-haired man into a chair and, no matter how much he struggled and screamed, forcibly shaved his head bald.

Yellow Hair... no, we can't call him Yellow Hair anymore, we have to call him Bald Head.

The bald man touched his bare head, feeling a cool sensation on it, and a chill ran through him as well.

His eyes were filled with fear!

Because no matter which red ball the opponent scores next, it will be an outcome he cannot accept.

The only thing that could save him was prayer—praying that his opponent wouldn't score, so that he could immediately pot the last white ball and end this incredibly exciting bet.

But reality often doesn't match our expectations...

boom!

There was another crisp sound.

The red ball representing the left foot was scored.

The next moment, everyone's eyes were on them.

The bald man panicked, "No, no, no! Don't cut off my feet! I'll give you back your money, I'll give it back to you... Ah!"

It was the same two burly men in suits, but this time it was bloody.

The blind man smiled and immediately frowned. He wanted to stop him, but he didn't have a good enough reason.

After all, this was a gamble that both parties participated in voluntarily.

So no matter what the final result is, as long as there was no cheating, one should accept the outcome of the bet, which is also his principle.

So after struggling with the decision, he sighed and said nothing.

Consider it a lesson learned.

Chapter 163 Being unable to see is also a stroke of luck

The bald man, who had lost his left foot, looked somewhat dazed.

To prevent him from bleeding to death, the two men had thoughtfully bandaged him up, ensuring he could finish the bet.

Seriously, that's so thoughtful, I could cry!

But for him, the nightmare had only just begun.

The secretary seemed to have given up acting and immediately scored five more red balls in a row.

Counting the two from before, that makes a total of seven. Let's take them away!

You can live without hands and feet, but if you lose both kidneys, you can probably live for another two weeks.

"The first bet is over."

"No, I don't want to die, save me... Oh right, money, I still have money! I'll give you all my money, just don't take my kidney."

The bald man cried and shouted loudly, his arrogance from when he first wanted to get rich overnight was gone.

"Everyone can be blinded by greed and make mistakes. Since he has already learned his lesson, why not give him another chance?"

"Yes, yes, please give me another chance!"

Seeing that someone was willing to speak up for him, the bald man quickly chimed in.

The secretary wasn't going to pay any attention to it; she'd seen this kind of thing many times before.

But this blind man...

Recalling the Don Quixote family executive who had just entered the 'VIP section,' he seemed quite interested in this blind man.

She felt that it wasn't impossible to try a different way of playing.

"I don't know how to address you?"

"Smile."

"Mr. Yixiao, changing the rules comes at a price."

The secretary said something meaningful.

"I wonder what the price will be?"

"Then let's redeem double the amount."

The secretary smiled gently, "Apart from the hair and left foot that have already been recovered, the remaining parts are worth 1280 million Berries according to the price in the previous bet. If we double that, it will be 2560 million Berries."

"He only has 870 million here, which is 1690 million Berries short."

Upon hearing this, the bald man's initial hope vanished instantly.

If he had that much money, he wouldn't have come here to participate in this special gamble with the dream of getting rich overnight.

However, the secretary's next words made him look over again.

"He probably can't come up with this money, but if Mr. Yixiao is willing to pay it on his behalf, that wouldn't be a bad idea."

He smiled and said frankly, "I also cannot come up with that much money."

"No problem, we also offer loan services. Would you like to, Mr. Yixiao?"
