The Tragic King of Loan Sharks

"With this kind of government, it's no wonder they've come to the end of the road!" Kuina snickered, "But that's good, at least I''ll have no pressure to play as you, teacher."

"Speaking of which, these past two years have been really hard on you." Longinus rubbed Kuina's hair, "In this desperate dark place, no family, no friends, only with loneliness, this must not be a good feeling, right?"

"I'm just retracing the path that you and my father once walked, compared to your pain and sacrifice, I'm not contributing anything at all!" Kuina had a firm tone.

"But soon, I have a feeling that the moment I'm looking forward to is coming soon!" Longinus' eyes showed a rare hint of excitement, "When the time comes, you will be able to return under the sun again, Kuina!"

"Return under the sun again?" Kuina whispered, then shook her head and said, "It is better to let me leave with sin and evil, if this identity is exposed, it will always have a certain impact on your bright image, sensei!"

"Do not say silly words, even if you do not come forward yourself, when the time comes, I will say it myself." Longinus smiled carelessly, "Do what you think is right, there is no need to care what others think!"

"But, if your image is damaged, sensei, it will have an impact on the final plan!" Kuina said urgently.

"Where will it be affected so easily?" Longinus raised his index finger and chuckled, "If what I have done will be overturned so easily, then I will have to re-examine myself instead!"

"Ah, I see, using my eyes to deduce what my teacher is doing is the biggest mistake in itself, all I have to do is just listen out for my teacher's instructions!" Kuina heart secretly thought, then eyes firmly looked at Longinus, "Sensei, I understand!"

Longinus, who had listened to Kuina's heart, then looked odd and coughed slightly, "Well, then you should also be prepared."

...

The Necropolis, the tall and spectacular giant pirate ship, was travelling on the New World's waters, and behind it, there were hundreds of big fleets of pirates.

Any ship that dared to approach them would crush with the absolute disparity between them.

There are quite a few pirate ships that could not avoid it in time; after this big fleet passed, there were only some wreckage fragments left on the surface of the sea.

On the distant sea, the crowd on a passenger ship grateful for the aftermath shouted.

"It's too dangerous, if we were a step slower just now, we would have been crushed by them!"

"That is the captain offered a bounty of 630 million berries Ghost Man Pirates, just because the fleet is too large, it was too late to quickly evacuate and they were directly destroyed!"

"This is the power of the Yonko? What awe-inspiring!"

"Apophis-sama did not even make a move, just that Eneru-sama, it was very easy to sink that fleet!"

"That's for sure! After all, the bounty of Eneru-sama is 1.5 billion berries!"

Among these travellers, a man with grassland on his head unconsciously clenched his palm.

"Zoro, are you okay?"

"Do not worry, I know it is not the time to challenge him, I just want ... to go above the Red Line continent to witness this feast of swordsmen!"

Behind them, Robin watched with a complicated gaze.

Onboard the Necropolis.

"Why is it you who strikes again this time?" Wyper asked with a cold face.

"Who told you to strike so slowly, if you let these sinners escape, Original Sin-sama's majesty will be damaged!" said Eneru as he leaned against the wall, hanging back.

"You think that kind of scum can escape from my hands?" Wyper's gaze was cold.

"That's hard to say, after all, someone's bounty is how much to ..." Eneru shouted in mock surprise, "like it was 1.37 billion berries, right, this kind of bounty, it may be very difficult to overcome those pirates I think it's a lot of work, right?"

"Do you want to be torn apart?"

"I think it's you who wants to turn into charcoal, right?"

"Why are you two quarreling again?" Next to him, Urouge said with a Buddha-like face, "It's not good to quarrel, it's not right to quarrel ..."

Just then, the sound of light footsteps sounded, and the three stopped quarrelling and bent slightly in the direction from which the voice came in unison to bow.

"I asked you to look for something, have you found it?" Apophis asked this.

"I disappoint you, the exact whereabouts have not been obtained! However, there is finally some news." Eneru sent a few photos.

Apophis took the photos and looked them up. At the same time, Eneru stood aside and explained, "This is the record of the black market transactions conducted on Gidgetro Island some time ago. It should have been a very simple matter to get it, but the one standing behind that black market is Du Feld, the guy who likes to play with loan sharks."

"After knowing our purpose, not only did he not give us what we wanted with both hands, but he even refused that Tesoro guy on the grounds that revealing customer information would affect the black market's reputation. Probably, he saw something from our actions that he wanted to get more exact information from the transaction records before we could negotiate with us!"

"So, we let Tesoro take out that guy who dared to provoke the prestige of you by the way!"

"The Loan Shark King? Heh, the greedy guy will eventually be consumed by his own greed!"

Apophis whispered and then stopped caring, just gently stroked the transaction record with his palm, "After this event, get this thing back to me."

"What you want should appear in front of your eyes!" In the outside world's eyes, there is like a demon as brutal as Eneru, but this moment is immense respect said.

"Original Sin-sama, is it time to open the final trial?" Wyper asked excitedly.

"Yes! I've waited long enough for that day!" Apophis sighed, "So, I first need to get the bait, and then, with the bait to attract that disobedient pirate to condition him!"

Conditioning ... heard here, the three eyes are extra bright up.

Ignoring the reaction of the three, Apophis asked again, "What about those cosmic pirates? What about now?"

Eneru pondered for a moment, said with an odd face, "It should all be quite good ... , right? After ten years of mining, they are physically stronger, only, the spirit seems to have become somewhat numb!"

"Turned into poor mining slaves? This will not work ..." Apophis shook his head and said, "They must be made as fierce and hideous as possible, to let others know at a glance, they are representative of killing and brutality!"

"To make those mentally numb guys become vicious? It's not easy!" Eneru muttered, going to give those cosmic pirates a wave of electrotherapy?
