Pirates: The Biggest Scum In Marine History

As Darren clapped his hands, the door to the ornately decorated side hall was suddenly pushed open.

Soldiers from the Kingdom of Yadis wearing standard military uniforms carried in large wooden boxes one after another.

In less than a minute, dozens of large wooden boxes were piled on the marble floor of the side hall, looking like a hill.

"Darren...could this be..."

Looking at the obviously heavy wooden box, Gion suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

At this time, a man dressed as a butler walked in, with a flattering smile on his face, nodded and said:

"Admiral Darren, I am the Minister of Finance of the Yadis Kingdom..."

He pointed to the large wooden box on the ground.

"This is a small gift from our Yadis Kingdom, please don't refuse the North Blue Marine fleet that shoulders "justice"."

As he spoke, he asked his soldiers to open the wooden box.

In an instant, Gion and Kake's eyes widened, and their mouths opened into an "O" shape.

Dazzling and bright lights emanated from the large wooden boxes that were opened one by one, illuminating the entire side hall of the palace with colorful lights.

clatter...

A dazzling array of gold and silver treasures, large piles of colorful banknotes, all kinds of rare treasures, fine cigars, high-end wine... Like flowing mercury, they tilted out of the fully loaded wooden box. The whole side hall is filled with the smell of money and corruption.

"This...this...this..."

Jia Ji stared dumbfounded at the hills of gold and silver treasures in front of him, he stuttered when he spoke, and the expression on the swollen pig's head was extremely funny.

What wealth is this! ?

He couldn't even count them!

Growing up in Marineford, he has never seen such a huge wealth in his life!

Darren smiled with satisfaction:

"Your Majesty King Yadis is too polite. It is our duty to Marine to protect the members of the alliance countries from harm."

The finance minister laughed and said:

"Of course. Who in the entire North Blue doesn't know that our admiral is selfless, honest, and dedicated to protecting the lives and property of our North Blue people without asking for anything in return?"

"North Blue can have Lord Darren's protection, it is really the blessing of North Blue."

"It's just that we can't let the many soldiers of North Blue Marine come here in vain. Hospitality is the tradition of our Yadis Kingdom. Please don't refuse, Lord Darren."

He's pretty good at talking... as expected of the Chancellor of the Exchequer.

Darren smiled and was about to nod.

Unexpectedly, Gion stepped forward suddenly, with an angry look on her pretty face, she gritted her teeth and said:

"No! We can't accept this money!"

She turned back and glared at Darren fiercely, and said angrily:

"We Marine will never accept money from other sources!! Darren, this is bribery!"

"If you dare to accept the money, I will directly report you to the headquarters!"

Jiaji next to him also shouted:

"Yes! I will report you to the headquarters!!"

As if the expression was too excited to affect the wound on his face, he grinned his teeth in pain, and his teeth itched with hatred in his heart.

If it wasn't for the bastard Darren, he wouldn't be "killed" by Vinsmoke Judge and make a fool of himself in front of Gion.

Hearing what the two said, the smile on the Chancellor's face froze.

He glanced at Darren cautiously, and asked respectfully:

"Master Darren, these two are..."

Darren smoked a cigar and smiled relaxedly:

"Oh, these two are Major Gion and Major Kake from Naval Headquarters Marineford... Well, they are my adjutants now."

Direct from Naval Headquarters? !

The chancellor caught the clue in Darren's tone instantly.

He was able to get into a high position in charge of a country's finances in the Yadis Kingdom, so he was naturally an extremely shrewd old fritter.

So he immediately turned around with a smile, bent over to Gion and Kake and said:

"It turned out to be Master Marine who came all the way from the headquarters. I'm really stupid. I'm a little rude. I'm very sorry."

Gion said to the Minister of Finance with a solemn expression:

"Hi sir, here I have to clarify a fact."

"Our Marine shoulders the justice of defending peace. Protecting civilians is our responsibility and obligation, and we don't need anything in return."

She pointed to the glittering gold and silver treasures all over the place, her tone was firm.

"We cannot collect this money, otherwise this will be the greatest insult to "justice"."

"Of course... Major Gion is right."

The Chancellor of the Exchequer agreed "with deep conviction":

"However, the two of you came from afar and worked tirelessly. The Yadis Kingdom also prepared an extra gift for the two of you."

"Major Gion looks like a powerful swordsman. It just so happens that there is a piece of fine iron in the treasure house of our kingdom, which can cast a good scabbard for your beloved knife."

"As for Major Kaji, our side also happens to have a lot of good cigars."

Gion:……

Plus: (★ ω ★)

"I said it all, we can't accept anything!!"

Gion yelled angrily.

The Minister of Finance was taken aback for a moment, then smiled again:

"Of course, in addition to the above gifts, we will also compensate you two for your hard work in this battle."

"There are also many excellent swords in the royal family's treasury, which can be selected by Major Gion."

"As for Major Jiaji, our royal song and dance troupe has prepared a wonderful performance for you."

Addition: (☆▽☆)^o^

"Really?"

His eyes lit up and he blurted out.

boom!

Before he could finish his sentence, Gion kicked his whole body away, his head sank into the wall, and his feet were dangling in mid-air.

"Your Excellency the minister... I seriously refuse, and I don't mean to ask you to add money."

Gion turned pale with anger, took a deep breath, and clenched his silver teeth.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer was stunned for a moment, with a look of embarrassment on his face.

If you keep postponing, don’t you just want to add money?

Isn't... not enough?

At this time, Darren couldn't stand it anymore, he sighed helplessly, and made a relief:

"Excuse me, Mr. Minister."

"We all like these gifts very much. Please tell Lord Yadis, we North Blue Marine are deeply grateful for this."

The Minister of Finance breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile:

"In fact, this is because the people are too enthusiastic and spontaneously fundraising, thanks to North Blue Marine for their efforts."

"In addition, the royal family has prepared a banquet for you tonight, please attend."

After saying this, he bowed slightly towards Darren and the others, then walked away quickly.

When the gate was closed, Gion finally couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and said angrily to Darren who sat down again and crossed his legs:

"Darren—"

Before she finished speaking, Darren interrupted her with a wave of his hand.

"Gion, you have also seen the embarrassment of the Minister of Finance. If you don't accept the money, he will have no way to go back to the business."

"That's how North Blue works."

"In their view, if you don't collect the money, they can't feel at ease at all."

"Justice doesn't work in this sea area."

To some extent, this is similar to giving red envelopes to doctors for surgery on earth.

If the doctor does not accept the red envelope, the family members will be worried.

This has nothing to do with occupation.

This is human nature.

Seeing that Gion still wanted to refute, Darren shook his head:

"Okay, that's it, you all go to prepare, and you have to attend the dinner later."
