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

The limited-time discount flash sale items at the beginning of the month have been canceled and replaced with limited-time discount flash sale items at the beginning of each quarter, which should refresh the selection with some very useful items. Abel is really looking forward to it!

The last thing that changed was the system package.

The original system inventory could only store system-related items; nothing else could be stored.

However, the upgrade partially relaxed this restriction.

You can now store and retrieve items that are not related to the system, but it's for a fee!

Anything you put in will incur a 10-trade-point charge.

Withdraw it, and then charge 10 transaction points.

That means each deposit and withdrawal costs 20 transaction points!

This is practically robbery!

While cursing the system for being a profiteer, Abel stored the straw fruit he always carried with him into the system's inventory.

There's no way around it, this thing is 'valuable' in every sense of the word.

Because it contains special energy, it cannot be put into the "Universal Capsule No. 1".

I'm not comfortable hiding it somewhere else, so I can only carry it with me at all times, but then I'm afraid of being seen by others. In short, I'm extremely conflicted.

So even though it would cost some transaction points, he immediately stored them in the safest system package.

Anyway, the only cost is transaction points when depositing and withdrawing, and you can deposit for as long as you want without any extra fees. In fact, he felt like he had made a profit and gotten a freebie from the system.

That concludes the system upgrade.

There have been some changes from the original version, but not many.

As for the conditions for obtaining advanced trading qualifications, Abel is currently unclear.

It's estimated that we'll only see the specific content after he accidentally completes one of the tasks.

At that time, we will likely face a severe assessment task!

But as long as it can be accomplished, it's all worth it!

……

When Reiju woke up, she immediately found herself tightly bound and unable to move, with even her mouth sealed shut with duct tape.

Moreover, all the clothes he originally wore were gone, replaced with loose black and white striped clothes, just like those worn in a prison.

"Oh no, a Den Den Mushi!"

Reiju immediately realized the seriousness of the situation.

Looking around, Ichi and the other two, who were beaten black and blue and had multiple fractures, were lying not far from her, and were being treated the same way—all their belongings had been taken away.

Clearly, even the last hope has been dashed.

The only way now is to find an opportunity to proactively reveal their identities, try to use the name of Germa 66 to save their lives, or even try to negotiate.

The fact that they weren't killed immediately means there's still room for maneuver.

At this critical juncture, there was no longer any way to consider the father's feelings or reputation.

She even hoped that after taking her Den Den Mushi, the other party would contact her father directly.

"The Don Quixote family..."

Reiju silently recited the name in her heart. The power that could make such a name for itself in the North Sea was indeed not to be underestimated.

No, you should say you shouldn't have provoked them in the first place!

They were just out to buy raw materials, but they got screwed over by three incompetent teammates.

Reiju kept sighing. She could tell from the surrounding environment and the rocking of the ship that they were at sea.

I just don't know where the destination is.

She clearly remembered that the Don Quixote family was also involved in the slave trade. Could they have been sold to some remote island?!

Reiju couldn't help but start to worry deeply about her future.

"Moses Moses, who?"

"..."

"Why aren't you saying anything? If you're not going to talk, I'm hanging up. What a waste of time, you're crazy..."

"Wait, who are you? Where's Reiju?"

A dignified male voice immediately came from the small Den Den Mushi that Abel was holding.

Although it was a question, his tone was like that of someone interrogating his subordinate.

"Tch, so it can talk. I thought it was mute."

Abel deliberately muttered something in a low voice that anyone could hear, then said strangely, "You contacted me first, and then you turn around and ask me who I am? Are you out of your mind? If you don't need it, I suggest you donate it to someone in need."

The man on the other end of the phone seemed to have never encountered anyone who dared to speak to him like that in a long time. He took several deep breaths to calm his anger, which was burning the urge to tear the other person to pieces, and said:

"This is the Den Den Mushi I left for my daughter Reiju. I want to know how she is doing, and also my sons..."

"Ah! So this isn't my Den Den Mushi! Sorry, sorry, I made a mistake."

"You mean Reiju, right? That pink-haired little girl. Don't worry, she and a few other neon-haired punks are still alive."

"Hmm, are you sure he's still alive?"

He suddenly interrupted Abel and then deliberately asked one of his subordinates.

The subordinate was also good at handling things; he immediately cleared his throat and replied, "They should... still be alive; they're quite resilient."

Low emotional intelligence: He's on his last breath.

High emotional intelligence: Resilient to life.

See? That's what you call the art of speaking!

Abel immediately gave the man an approving look, then continued arguing with Judge, "You heard that? Those guys are all alive and well, don't worry about them."

After a brief silence on the other end of the Den Den Mushi, Judge's voice came through again, "Who exactly are you? Why are you attacking my children?"

Judge's first suspicion was that Reiju and the others had accidentally exposed Germa 66's identity, which attracted the attention of those with ulterior motives who wanted to harm him.

But upon closer reflection, it seems unlikely, since there isn't such a powerful force in Beihai!

Could they be people from the Grand Line?

Just as Judge was puzzled, Abel chuckled twice and said, "At a time like this, what are you pretending for?"

"Although we still don't know who you are, you're the mastermind behind it all, aren't you?"

"Mastermind? What do you mean?"

Judge was completely dumbfounded. What did I do? I'm the mastermind behind it all?!

"Ha, still pretending! Let me ask you, are those 'neon-lit punk' kids your children?"

"Although this description is very offensive, it should be..."

"That giant snail and those uniformed, dead-faced soldiers are all your men, aren't they?"

"Snails aren't human, never mind... Right, they're all my subordinates, so what?"

"Then you still won't admit you're the mastermind?!"

Abel's voice suddenly rose eight octaves!

"..."

Judge suddenly felt exhausted; he simply couldn't continue communicating with this bastard.

However, it seemed that Reiju, Ichiji, and the others had been captured by the other side, and Germa 66's existence had not been exposed yet, so no matter how angry they were, they had to hold back for now.

"After I rescue him, I'm going to grind that bastard into mincemeat and use it as bait to catch fish for a month!"

Judge calmed himself down again, but his breathing was already a little heavy. "I think there must be some misunderstanding here."

"A misunderstanding? Without even a word, they came to our Don Quixote family's territory to kill and rob, and they're planning to do the same thing twice!"

"This is utterly disrespectful to our great Captain Doflamingo! Does he really think the Donquixote Family are just some lowly nobody that anyone can bully?"

Abel was furious, so he kept loudly emphasizing "the Donquixote Family" and "Captain Doflamingo," as if afraid the other party wouldn't hear him or remember him.

Now, Judge finally understood.

It seems that the problem lies here.

He sent Reiju, Ichiji, and the others out to buy raw materials, but it inexplicably turned into murder and robbery.

In his view, murder and robbery were one thing, even if the other party was the Don Quixote family.

But the stupid thing is that they actually got wiped out in one fell swoop?!

I have to figure out a way to save them myself!

"A half-finished product is a half-finished product; it's really useless. It can't even control its own younger brothers."

Judge could guess whose idea it was to commit murder and robbery, but... Reiju was definitely the one who bore the greatest responsibility!

As the older sister, she was actually led by the nose by her younger brother, and when something happened, she didn't contact him immediately. She even lost the Den Den Mushi. What else is she but a useless person?!

“I understand. This is indeed a misunderstanding. I did not instruct the children to act. I can offer double the price to compensate you for your losses, on the condition that you safely redeem my people and ship.”

"Heh, what were you doing all this time? Too late!"

Abel sneered, "This matter can't be resolved by someone saying it's a misunderstanding and offering some compensation. You see, after this happened, many people are waiting to see the Don Quixote family make a fool of themselves. Because of this, Captain Dover is furious and has issued a death order to execute these petty thieves in the most ruthless way possible!"

"And I'm currently escorting your precious children back. If you're interested, I can arrange a live broadcast for you. What do you think?"
