"I haven't dealt with this Jonathan yet, but I heard that he is the most famous wise man in the navy after 'Buddha's Warring States', so we can make some friends with him." Tezzolo pondered, "And that one too" Vice Admiral Black Bat, although he is nearly a hundred years old, his strength is still unfathomable, and he is also one of the notable figures in the navy. You must treat him well, you know?"

"Understood!" Mr. Tanaka bowed slightly.

"Well, go down. If it's nothing important, just make your own decision. You don't have to ask me about everything." Tezzolo waved his hand.

Mr. Tanaka responded and exited the room.

On the other side, after Drake and Tina finished their meal, it was already more than two hours later. Since they had nothing to do, they simply ran to the casino to kill time.

However, as soon as the two entered the casino, they heard someone calling their names.

"Brother Derek, little Tina, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect to meet you here..." A smiling voice came from behind the two of them.

The two turned sideways and found that the person calling their names was a young man who looked a little unfamiliar and was wearing a blue suit. He looked like he was familiar with both of them.

However, after thinking for a long time, the two of them could not remember who this person was.

"What, you don't even recognize me?" The young man in the blue suit continued to say with a smile.

"You, you are... why did your appearance change?!" Tina felt that this voice was particularly familiar. After thinking about it for a moment, she remembered who this voice belonged to, and she was surprised and happy.

However, the person in front of her looked obviously different from the person she thought.

"I disguised myself a little to avoid being recognized. It would be too troublesome." The young man in the blue suit said with a smile.

"It's been a long time, Lefa." Derek also recognized the identity of the person in front of him at this time, and his expression was slightly complicated, because the two of them had just talked about the person in front of them not long ago.

It’s Leifa whom I haven’t seen for many years!

Lei Fa was actually surprised to meet two old friends here.

Drake became a pirate after defecting from the navy, and now he is mainly active in the New World. He knows this well, and it is not surprising to meet him here. But Tina, this girl, normally stays in the first half of the Grand Route, but she didn't expect that she would appear here.

"Brother Lefa, Tina misses you so much——"

Seeing Leifa at such a close distance, Tina could no longer suppress her longing, and hugged Leifa, almost hanging on him.

This behavior has often appeared when Tina was a child, so it stands to reason that Leifa should be used to it.

But at this time, Tina was no longer the little one she was before, but a beautiful lady with a curvy figure. This hug immediately made Leifa feel a little embarrassed.

But he could also see that Tina really missed him, so he reached out to hug her, patted her back gently, and comforted her.

After a long while, Tina let go of Lei Fa, blushing slightly.

Because she just remembered that Derek was still there.

But she was overthinking this point. How could Derek not see that Tina had secretly promised Lefa a long time ago? Seeing this scene, she didn't feel strange at all.

Lefa took out a silk scarf, wiped the corners of Tina's eyes, and said with a smile, "You are so old, but you are still so unstable... You haven't told me yet, why are you here?"

Only then did Tina tell Lefa the reason why she came here.

"I didn't expect that the little girl back then would now become a naval colonel who can take charge of her own business. I'm really impressed." After hearing this, Lei Fa said with a smile, "But you are still acting a little recklessly. This [Golden City] It's not simple. If you really encounter danger, even your identity as a navy can't protect you, and then 'Golden Emperor' Tezoro won't care about the face of the navy..."

"Brother Drake has already told Tina that Tina will not mess around."

"It's okay. Since I'm here, even if you cause any trouble, I will support you and no one can touch you." Refa said with a slight grin.

Hearing what Leifa said, neither Tina nor Derek felt there was anything unexpected, because Leifa was indeed qualified to say this.

"Brother Leifa, I heard that the 'Golden Emperor' Tezoro is very powerful. Even the navy admiral is afraid of him. Are you here to cause trouble for him?" Tina asked in a low voice.

"That's not true." Refa shook his head, "This guy Tezoro does have some abilities. No one will touch him easily unless necessary, because if he can't be killed, it will be very troublesome."

After hearing this, Tina felt relieved.

She knew that Lei Fa was very powerful, and she also knew that the ‘Heavenly Punishment Organization’ was very powerful.

But in her eyes, the power of the [Golden City] is no small matter, and the 'Golden Emperor' Tezzolo himself is also a ruthless character with unfathomable strength.

She would still be worried if Refa had a conflict with him.

Lefa continued, "I came here specifically to see a friend, but I have to wait until the auction to see him. If you have nothing to do, you can come with me."

"I'm fine." Tina said immediately.

Derek also nodded and said, "Then I won't bother you."

"We are all old friends, no need to be polite to me." Refa smiled nonchalantly.

…

Three days later, the auction in [Golden City] finally kicked off.

Because Lei Fa's identity was not exposed, there was no separate VIP room prepared for him in the [Golden City]. He, Drake and Tina sat directly in the auction hall.

Soon, the auction officially began.

The person who presided over this auction was Bacara, one of Tezzolo's closest men and women with the ability of the 'lucky fruit', a graceful and sexy woman.

Under her warm-up, the auction house soon became lively, and each auctioneer was gearing up and preparing for the next bidding.

The first item to be auctioned was a very large aqua blue gem called the ‘Aqua Blue Heart’. The starting price was 15 million beli, and each increase in price was at least 1 million beli!

An auction item of this price range, if placed in an ordinary auction, would already be a high-end item that could be used as the finale, but in this auction, it is only qualified to be the first auction item.

Not long after, the 'Aqua Heart' was priced at 32 million Baileys. This price actually exceeded the value of the gem itself, but at an auction of this scale, the premium was also very high. Normal things, not weird at all.

"Forty million Baileys." Refa, who had been watching the excitement, suddenly shouted.

"Auctioneer No. 672 bids 40 million beli. The bidding is valid. Is there anyone with a higher bid?" Baccarat on the stage said loudly after seeing the sign held by Refa clearly.

Although Refa is an ordinary guest sitting in the hall, everyone who holds the auction sign has paid a deposit of 50 million beli. If he cannot get the money out of the random bidding, while the auction fails, The auctioneer's 50 million beli deposit will also be forfeited.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, no one would shout randomly.

On the other hand, the price of this first auction item is not high to begin with. The current bidding price is not as much as the deposit itself, so there is no suspicion of causing trouble. (To be continued.)
