Shakky frowned at Ryuya at the doorway.
Then, she rubbed her temples.
She hadn't expected such troublemakers to come to her bar.
"If you're going to fight, go outside. Otherwise, you'll face the consequences."
Ryuya's eyes, hidden beneath his cloak, glanced at Shakky, "Just a second!"
"Ha! Who do you think you are? One second?! I'll beat you to a pulp!"
The drunk pirate threw his bottle at Ryuya.
The bottle spun in the air.
Just as it neared Ryuya,
a terrifying haki pressure erupted from him!
The highly aggressive haki pressure slammed into the bottle, pulverizing it into dust.
A Conqueror's Haki pressure spread wildly.
Instantly, everyone in Shakky's bar,
whether asleep or awake, except Shakky and Rayleigh, felt their internal organs churn violently.
Intense pain assaulted their brains.
They couldn't even faint!
Rayleigh sensed the terrifying Conqueror's Haki.
This physical impact of Conqueror's Haki was something he'd only felt from his former captain and, perhaps, Shanks.
Someone couldn't take it and spat blood, severely injured, within a second.
The others, though not spitting blood, were also severely injured!
The pirates finally sobered up.
They knew they couldn't offend these two.
Seeing their attire, they remembered the one who had beaten Big Mom.
Though Ryuya disdained the Yonko title,
in the pirates' minds, he was a Yonko!
Even if they had a hundred lives, they wouldn't dare repeat their actions.
Throwing a bottle at a Yonko was suicidal!
Ryuya said disdainfully.
Instantly, the pirates, as if hearing the most beautiful words in the world,
crawled out of the bar.
Shakky said, "Pay up. You owe 100 million berries! No payment, no leaving!"
Rayleigh cooperatively closed the door.
Shakky's bar lived up to its name.
Ryuya was like a grim reaper, ready to claim their lives.
They would pay anything to escape.
The apparent captain quickly produced all his berries.
Everything valuable was placed before Shakky.
The crew instantly became paupers.
They had prepared a lot of berries for the auction, but they lost it all here.
Seeing this, Shakky nodded.
Rayleigh opened the door, and the pirates fled.
They looked far from severely injured.
Ryuya muttered, sitting at the bar.
Kuina sat beside him, holding the Wado Ichimonji.
"Ten yakitori skewers, two bottles of sake."
Ordering, Ryuya said to Rayleigh, "Silvers The Dark King Rayleigh", aren't you joining the auction fun?
The already tense atmosphere grew heavier.
Sabaody Archipelago was already turbulent.
Anyone with sense could feel the strangeness.
Rayleigh stayed in the bar.
But someone recognized him and called out his title!
Rayleigh was surprised.
He didn't answer Ryuya but sat beside him, "Do we know each other?"
"I know you, but you don't know me."
"Oh, really? It's an honor to be recognized by Zero."
Rayleigh's smile didn't reach his eyes.
Kuina glanced at Ryuya and Rayleigh. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs NovᴇlFirᴇ(.)nᴇt
New to the Grand Line, she didn't understand their conversation.
Focused on swordsmanship, she wasn't interested.
Rayleigh continued, "You're not here just for dinner. What's your purpose?"
"Simple. I want to know how many powerful pirate crews or organizations are on this island."
Shakky took a cigarette, lit it, and took a puff, "Buying information? Your organization's intelligence gathering is lacking. Or you're all fighters, with no intelligence personnel, right?!"
"Something like that. But it won't last long."
not understanding Ryuya's words.
But she knew his purpose.
Taking another puff, Shakky said, "This information is expensive."
Ryuya took a sip, "Just tell me."
Shakky took a small notebook from under the counter, reading the listed forces, "As of yesterday, over three thousand pirate crews are in Sabaody Archipelago. Seven hundred have captains with bounties over 100 million berries."
Seven hundred with bounties over 100 million was normal.
Pirates near Sabaody were strong.
"As for other forces…"
