"Could the two of you please stop fighting for a mont?"
Suddenly, a woman’s voice rang out, causing Alucard and Kaido, whose eyes were bursting with bloodlust, to turn their heads.
What greeted their eyes was a woman dressed in a professional secretary outfit, an ultra-short black skirt and high heels, with lightly curled, waist-length erald-green hair.
It was Monet, the secretary of the Donquixote Pirates.
"Who the hell are you? Trying to tell what to do," Kaido growled, clenching his fist nacingly, showing no sign of holding back because the other party was a woman.
Faced with Kaido, Monet couldn’t help but swallow hard to alleviate her nervousness. "Tesoro-dono has been waiting for everyone in the palace in the Great Tesoro City for quite so ti now. Please, follow ."
Alucard re-sheathed the white pistol Casull back into his coat, the color of his pupils returning to normal. "Indeed, there’s no atmosphere for a battle in a place like this."
Kaido stared at Alucard for a long ti before finally retracting his spiked club. This allowed Monet and the other staff present to finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Whoosh!
At that mont, a warship with a saber-toothed tiger figurehead, whose size surpassed that of the Kuja ship although it was smaller than the Big Mom Pirates’ singing ship, cut through the golden sea and docked at the port.
It was the Sabre-Tooth, led by Queen, one of the Beasts Pirates!
Queen, known for his notoriously lazy personality, stepped off the ship this ti. Accompanying him was Elburn, the ace of the Saber-toothed Tiger.
"Oh... Boss Kaido didn’t fight the Immortal one? Now that’s rare."
Queen’s eyes, which usually looked half-closed as if he hadn’t woken up, widened slightly in shock that Alucard and Kaido hadn’t co to blows.
"It’s a pleasure to et you, Alucard-san. I am Elburn of the Sabre-Tooth."
Elburn boldly greeted Alucard. "I almost had a bout with your subordinate, Keith Fallon, but it was cut short because the Titan Fruit had already been snatched. Quite a pity, really."
"Woah, the Kuja Pirates are here too!"
"Top quality! These won are all top quality!"
The pirates who disembarked from the Sabre-Tooth discussed the Kuja female pirates amongst themselves. As pirates, their language was naturally far from clean.
"Disgusting n."
"Besides, didn’t the Sabre-Tooth lose to us before?"
The Kuja side retorted without rcy. Just as the confrontation between Alucard and Kaido seed to calm down, their subordinates showed signs of causing a ruckus, giving Monet a severe headache.
It couldn’t be helped; among the Yonko, the Immortal Pirates and the Beasts Pirates shared the deepest grudge.
Hancock walked forward with a look of supre arrogance. "Wind, haven’t you had enough punishnt from last ti?"
Seeing Hancock, Queen frowned. "I lost to your strange ability. Try fighting one-on-one."
If the other Beasts Pirates heard Queen challenging soone to a duel, their jaws would drop. Unlike the aggressive Kaido, Queen was the most laid-back of the Three Calamities.
This outburst was mainly because his previous defeat against the Kuja had been a source of imnse humiliation, happening far too quickly. Before he could even react, his ship was flipped by a Sea King, and he would have surely drowned had he not been quick-witted.
"Please stop, Queen-sama." Elban tried to dissuade him. "We are not here to fight."
"Everyone, calm down," Sandersonia also began to soothe the emotions of her crew.
anwhile, the Big Mom Pirates, led by Baccarat, had already left the dock and headed toward the comrcial district. With Captain Charlotte Linlin absent, Cracker and his crew wanted no part in the conflict between the other two monsters.
Monet led Alucard and the others through the golden gate, where several luxury cars were waiting.
"Oh? What is this..."
Alucard looked at the vehicles, which brought back mories. Unlike the cars of his previous life, four expressive turtles sat on the hood and another four on the rear of each vehicle.
"These are Turtle Cars. They are primarily powered by eight rare Muscle Turtles and are the main mode of transportation here."
As Monet spoke, a Muscl Turtle wearing a white hat hopped up and opened the car door. Monet gestured, invitingly. "Please, Alucard-dono."
"This trip is turning out to be interesting."
Alucard sat in the passenger seat. Hancock, seeing the two of them seated side-by-side in the front, sat in the back, clearly displeased, her eyes fixated on the back of Monet’s head, sending shivers down Monet’s spine as she drove.
"Let’s take the next car," Sandersonia wisely decided to avoid the situation after seeing her sister’s expression, a choice the Kuja crew mbers behind her readily agreed with.
The car sped into the comrcial district of Gran Tesoro, a sight that was enough to make most of the world’s other entertainnt cities pale in comparison.
Even Hancock, who was used to grand spectacles, couldn’t help but remark, "It’s truly exaggerated."
"Yes, this is the ship of dreams that Tesoro-dono and the Young Master worked together to build," Monet explained. "Although it is nad after Tesoro-dono, the Young Master’s contributions cannot be overlooked."
"The Young Master?" Hancock questioned.
"You an Doflamingo? I have an interesting young man in my crew who really wants to take his head," Alucard said, placing his hands on the dashboard, the other holding a glass of high-quality red wine provided by Monet.
"You an Law?"
Monet imdiately guessed who Alucard was talking about. She responded with a aningful tone, "If Alucard-dono does not intervene, it will be impossible for him to do anything to the Young Master."
"Heh heh heh..."
Alucard’s shoulders shook as he burst into laughter. "That’s hard to say."
"We will soon arrive at the Gran Tesoro City in the comrcial district. If the two of you wish, you are welco to try your luck at the gas."
Monet changed the subject. She was a clever woman and had already realized from their brief exchange that Alucard was not interested in the feud between Law and Doflamingo. It was best to change the topic imdiately, lest she pique his interest in a dangerous matter.
"Hmph. Whatever I choose to do will be allowed, because I... am simply too beautiful," Hancock proudly declared from the back seat.
Monet was speechless at Hancock’s declaration, but since her back was turned, she wasn’t exposed to Hancock’s beauty and didn’t fall into a state of confusion. "Haha... Ah, is that so... Well, then, do as you please."
