Pirates: Rush to the Peak

"Everyone, the banquet that the boss ordered us to prepare is now ready. Please come and join us." Mr. Tanaka walked up to the group with steady steps using his short legs. This time he did not use his fruit ability.

When Kuro saw him appear, a curious look appeared on his face.

He remembered that this guy's fruit ability was extremely magical. He could move freely through various buildings and even open up another dimension for people to get in.

It’s a pity to leave such a powerful ability with Tezulo.

Kuro secretly thought in his heart that he had to find a way to take Mr. Tanaka away.

Tezulo saw the genuine smile on Kuro's face and mistakenly thought that he was satisfied with Mr. Tanaka's arrangement.

He didn't know that Kuro was actually targeting Mr. Tanaka.

Tesoro was secretly happy, thinking that the banquet was very well arranged and would please Captain Craw.

"Hahaha, Tanaka, you did a great job!" Tezulo laughed and praised, "Captain Kuro, please honor us with your presence. We in Golden City have been preparing for this for a long time."

Kuro smiled and nodded, but he was secretly planning in his mind.

He planned to find an opportunity to meet with Mr. Tanaka alone during the banquet to test his attitude.

If possible, he hopes to convince Mr. Tanaka to join his pirate group.

After all, a person with the power of a magical fruit would be a great help to the pirate group.

"Of course, Lord Tesoro, I will definitely honor you and attend the banquet," said Kuro.

"Everyone, please follow me." Mr. Tanaka smiled and turned around, leading the way, followed by Kuro and others. Along the way, Kuro and Tesoro talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was so harmonious that it seemed as if the two were old friends who had not seen each other for many years.

The group soon arrived at the elevator. Mr. Tanaka pressed the door-opening button skillfully, and the elevator door slowly opened. He bowed and made a gesture of invitation, appearing very polite.

Tesoro wanted to be polite, but unexpectedly, Kuro just pushed him into the elevator with his hand.

"Let's go in together, don't be so reserved!" Kuro smiled cheerfully and walked into the elevator. However, the moment he stepped into the elevator, the entire elevator suddenly shook, as if it was carrying an unnecessary weight.

"Ding ding ding!!!" The overweight alarm in the elevator suddenly sounded, sharp and piercing, making everyone present look embarrassed.

"This..." Tezoro was a little at a loss. He did not expect such a situation to occur.

Kuro smiled casually and patted Tezulo on the shoulder: "It's okay, maybe there's something wrong with this elevator. Let's take another one."

As he spoke, Tezulo pulled Kuro out of the elevator and turned to walk towards another elevator. This elevator looked more new and the interior decoration was more luxurious. After they walked in, the elevator ran very smoothly without any shaking.

"Haha, what a little episode." Tezoro smiled and tried to smooth things over, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere.

However, he did not notice that Mr. Tanaka had quietly disappeared from the spot.

(At this moment, at the bottom of the elevator shaft, a fat black man was gritting his teeth, holding the elevator rope tightly with both hands, and his muscles were tense. His face was covered with sweat, and he was obviously trying his best to support the weight of the elevator. However, his efforts did not seem to have much effect, and the elevator was still slowly sinking...)

"Ding!!!" With a dull sound, the elevator finally arrived at its destination, completing its mission. The elevator door slowly opened, and Kuro stepped out. The scene in front of him instantly shocked his soul.

In the sky, golden powder is floating gently like fine snowflakes, creating a dreamlike atmosphere. Underfoot, the golden road shines brightly, and each gold brick seems to be telling its endless value. In the distance, various entertainment facilities are running happily, attracting the attention of tourists.

What amazed Craw even more was that there were beautiful women with graceful figures and bare skin walking around everywhere. They were either wearing thin and transparent gauze clothes, or just had paint on their bodies, showing a primitive and wild beauty.

"In a situation like this, it's hard for me not to be greedy!" Kuro couldn't help but mutter to himself, with greed flashing in his eyes.

Tezulo followed him out of the elevator. He didn't hear what Kuro said clearly, so he asked curiously, "Captain Kuro, what are you talking about?"

Kuro came back to his senses, smiled and shook his head: "Oh, nothing, I was just shocked by the scene in front of me. It's really unbelievable that there are so many treasures and beautiful scenery hidden in the Golden City."

Upon hearing this, Tezulo chuckled and said, "Captain Kuro, are you kidding me? The crew member I sent to deliver the letter came back and told me that your base camp is very spectacular. In comparison, my base camp is probably just a small one."

Kuro smiled playfully when he heard this. "Yes, my base camp is indeed spectacular, but it is only spectacular. And here, the Golden City, is a place full of temptations and opportunities. Every corner exudes the breath of money and power, which is hard to resist."

Tezulo seemed to sense the deeper meaning behind Kuro's words. He smiled slightly and did not continue the topic.

Instead, he turned around and pointed to the entertainment facilities in the distance: "Captain Kuro, after we finish the banquet, let's come here and enjoy it. I believe you will like it here."

“I’m sure I’ll like it here, too.”

Kuro said with satisfaction, he became greedy for Dadesolo, and even regretted not having dealt with Tezoro before.

"Ding!" A crisp bell rang, and another elevator slowly opened. Er and others walked out one by one, their faces filled with curiosity and excitement.

"Wow, what a huge golden lamp!" Ah Er saw the huge golden crystal lamp hanging on the roof of the Golden City and couldn't help but exclaimed. The lamp was dazzling, as if it was inlaid with countless gold and gems, emitting a dazzling light.

At this time, Mr. Tanaka happened to appear beside them and said with a smile: "Please come over here, I will take you to experience the food of Golden City."

Kuro nodded and walked forward. The group entered the food area and began to enjoy this feast of vision and taste.

However, on the second floor of the leisure area, Aokiji and Green Bull had been watching them secretly. Their eyes revealed solemnity and vigilance, as if foreshadowing the impending danger.

"This is a serious matter." Aokiji said in a low voice, with a hint of worry in his tone.
