Pirate King: I'm determined to be the King of Sons-in-Law!

Chapter 37 A Treasure Worth One Hundred Million!

East China Sea, Fengqin Islands.

Orange Town is located in the middle of this beautiful island and is famous for its oranges and orange products. It is a well-known port city in the East China Sea.

Sailing at sea, the difficulty in preserving vegetables and fruits for extended periods can lead to many crew members not getting enough vitamin C, resulting in scurvy.

Orange juice and canned oranges, rich in Vitamin C, have become irreplaceable necessities for long voyages, ensuring nutritional balance and even saving lives.

The high demand for orange products solidified Orange Town's maritime position and made it increasingly wealthy and prosperous, transforming it into a central city in the surrounding waters.

Even some pirates like to come to Orange Town to resupply and squander their money.

"arrive."

The warship slowly approached the shore.

Looking at Orange Town, which was a hundred times more prosperous than Shells Town, Loya felt an urge to buy a house there.

The streets are bustling with people, yet incredibly clean and tidy. The houses on both sides are neatly arranged, making it a very comfortable place to live. Compared to the trendy and open atmosphere of Glass Pearl Island, Orange Town is undoubtedly a more suitable place to settle down.

It's a good place.

According to intelligence from the branch, the Buggy Pirates have not yet occupied Orange Town, and the town remains peaceful.

Normally, pirates rarely stay in a town for a long time, because doing so would inevitably attract the attention of the Navy.

Few pirates dare to confront the Navy head-on.

Of course, nothing is absolute, and there's never a shortage of fools in One Piece.

Loya looked at his subordinates.

"You all understand what to do, right?"

"clear!"

The marines responded loudly, with Django donning his usual pirate attire and standing on tiptoe, looking quite flamboyant.

"Let's begin!"

"yes!"

Everyone dispersed.

Ten minutes later.

Zango, holding his hat brim, walked alone in the middle of the street, his backward walking style quite eye-catching.

"Huh, you guys are saying I'm a weirdo?"

Even though no one was speaking, Zango was asking and answering himself.

"I'm not surprised at all!"

Nobody said anything about you!

The passersby around were speechless.

Soon, Zango arrived at the tavern and instantly became the focus of attention among the patrons. Many people's eyes changed, and they clearly recognized Zango's identity.

Unlike the residents on the street, the tavern is the most well-informed place. Its patrons know all about famous pirates, not to mention the major events that have just happened.

"It was him!"

"Wasn't the Black Cat Pirates wiped out?"

"I can't believe he escaped!"

"Hypnotist" Zango, a great pirate with a bounty of 900 million Berries, is not as famous as Captain Kuro, but he is still a well-known figure in the surrounding waters.

Zango backed up to the bar, his attitude quite arrogant: "Boss, bring out your best wine and your best food, I'm starving!"

"This guest."

The tavern owner frowned. He recognized Zango too. He had to consider a very real problem regarding this stray dog.

"Do you have money?"

"What, money?"

Zango seemed to be provoked. He searched his pockets for a long time but only found a few coins. He slammed them on the table in frustration.

"Damn it, only 500 Berries!"

"Give."

The tavern owner was already used to it and skillfully got Zango a bottle of the most ordinary ale, and then asked the kitchen to prepare a seafood fried rice.

Exactly 500 Berries.

"Damn it, how dare they underestimate me!"

Zango, grumbling, picked up the wine and seafood fried rice and walked towards a corner, muttering to himself.

"Damn it, once I find Captain Crook's treasure, I'm definitely buying this shop!"

Treasure?

The sound wasn't loud, but it was just enough to reach the ears of the drinkers.

The drinkers were greatly encouraged.

The Black Cat Pirates had been rampant for many years, and although they were eventually wiped out by the Navy, the treasures they had accumulated could not simply disappear into thin air.

That's the treasure of "Hundreds of Strategies" Kro!

And those who know the location of the treasure.

Several drinkers exchanged glances, then simultaneously stood up and walked towards Zango, placing their drinks on the table and revealing fake smiles.

"Brother, we'll buy you a drink!"

"Boss, bring the wine quickly!"

"I want the best wine!"

Meanwhile, in the port area.

Marines, in groups of two or three, dispersed throughout the streets, carrying Zango's bounty posters and asking passersby for information.

"We have received intelligence that the hypnotist Django, a remnant of the Black Cat Pirates, is on this island. Please inform us if you see him."

"Okay!"

The residents nodded repeatedly, knowing they would be afraid to have such dangerous pirates lingering nearby.

Without the navy needing to remind them, the townspeople spontaneously spread the word to each other.

Soon, news of the Navy's search for the remnants of the Black Cat Pirates spread throughout Orange Town, and many residents who had seen Zango gave directions to the Navy.

In a certain alley, two bounty hunters who were sleeping against the wall heard the noise outside and got up from the ground.

The two lit cigarettes, their expressions somber.

"It's our turn, Johnny."

"You're right, Joseph."

"Any pirate is our prey!"

"After a month, the fearsome duo of Johnny and Joseph are finally going to strike again."

"Our hunting target this time, [Hypnotist] Zango? How pathetic. Since he's become our prey, he can only lament the unfairness of fate!"

"Let's go, Johnny, don't let the incompetent navy get there first!"

"I understand, Joseph, the pirates should be there!"

The two walked out of the alley and confidently headed towards the tavern, which was the pirates' favorite place to hang out.

Soon, the two arrived at the tavern. As soon as they pushed open the door, the tavern was shaken up by the incredulous shouts of the patrons.

"1 billion Berry!!!"

"Ah, shh! Shh!"

In the center of the tavern, Zango, flushed and red-faced from drinking too much, panicked and put his finger to his lips, desperately hissing.

"Shut up, this is classified!"

"The fact that Captain Crowe's treasure is buried on Moon Island must never be revealed; it's a treasure worth 1 million Berries!"

"Oops, I let it slip again!"

That panicked look was definitely not an act.

After a brief silence, the tavern erupted in cheers.

"Captain Crook's treasure is mine!"

"Men, let's set sail in search of treasure!"

"Hahaha, I'm rich!"

The patrons were eager to leave the tavern in search of Kro's treasure, but just then, the tavern door was kicked open!

Immediately afterwards, a dozen or so sailors carrying guns rushed into the tavern and surrounded Zango, with the leading marine officer wearing iron fist gloves on both fists.

"The Twin Fists" Finbdy!

"Found you, Pirate Zango!"

Holding Zango's bounty poster, Fombadi's face was grim: "You're under arrest! Kuro's treasure must not fall into the hands of pirates!"

"Damn it, they actually tracked us down here."

Zango angrily cursed, but faced with more than a dozen rifles, he could only obediently raise his hands in surrender.

The surrounding drinkers became even more excited.

Even the Navy is searching for Kuro's treasure!

This means that "Hundreds of Strategies" Kro's treasure really exists!

The last trace of doubt vanished without a trace.

"Wait a minute, Navy!"

Just as the navy was about to take Zango away, two figures blocked the tavern door.

It's Johnny and Joseph!

The two men, arms crossed, blocked the entrance aggressively. The super treasure worth 100 million Berries was enough to make anyone lose their mind.

"We were here first, so we should handle that pirate!"

"you?"

Finbuddy was a little confused.

Who are these two guys?

Wait, this looks vaguely familiar.

"I remember now. You guys were bounty hunters who specialized in catching third-rate pirates, and your names were Johnny and Joseph, right?"

"That's right, it's us!"

Their expressions both darkened simultaneously.

"Johnny, this young navy guy seems to be underestimating us."

"Targeting third-rate pirates? That sounds jarring. It seems necessary to teach this reckless marine a lesson, Joseph."

As soon as they finished speaking, the two drew their swords and charged at Finbdy, shouting, "Naval pawns, taste our power!"

"The treasure is ours!"

One minute later.

"We lost by a tiny margin."

The two men lay on the ground, their faces bruised and swollen.

"Sergeant, shall we arrest them?"

"Forget it, there's no need to waste time on such a minor character."

Finbdi clapped his hands, ignoring the two men's provocation.

"Let's go."

"yes!"

After the navy left the tavern, Johnny and Joseph slunk up, still hurling insults at each other.

"That navy officer escaped."

"We were careless this time, but we only lost by a small margin. Next time we meet, we'll definitely show him how powerful we are."

"Let's go find Zoro. If he had been there, we wouldn't have been outnumbered."

"good!"

"Kro's treasure is ours!"
