His Devil Fruit ability activated at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two figures rose instantly, passing straight through the pure gold ceiling as if the solid surface did not exist at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next moment, they arrived inside the vast and luxurious VIP room, a chamber specially designed to host the most distinguished guests from across the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stay downstairs and keep order,\" Tesoro said calmly with a wave of his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Tesoro sama.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tanaka lowered his oversized head and slowly sank into the floor once more, disappearing as if he had dived into deep water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tesoro walked toward the massive floor to ceiling window and gazed down at the dazzling golden city below. A strange smile crept onto his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I do not know your true purpose for coming here, but this is a rare opportunity,\" he muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I control most of the wealth in this world, yet in the end, I still rely too much on the strength of others.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spread his fingers and pressed his palm lightly against the glass, staring at his faint reflection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gran Tesoro is a magnificent city, a nation built on gold, yet there is only one person with truly overwhelming combat power supporting it. Me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Money can buy powerful people, but no matter how many fighters I hire, they are nothing before the Four Emperors, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, or those detestable Celestial Dragons.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tesoro's hand slowly clenched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stella, even I am beginning to lose sight of who I used to be…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His reflection stared back at him, distorted by the glittering lights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I already possess more Berries than most people could ever imagine, and I will seize even more in the future. Yet that is still not enough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dangerous glow flashed in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The bodyguards of the Celestial Dragons are no ordinary trash. If I can force those so called gods to bow before money itself, then even their guards will fall with them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A wave of cold killing intent surged from Tesoro's body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shirogai Yamikuro. A monster who defeated Kaido, the Beast, and Charlotte Linlin, Big Mom.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even the Marines fear him to the extreme. An Admiral cannot stop him. Because of him, they shamelessly fabricated the title of Navy Chief Instructor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tesoro let out a low laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At first, I intended to manipulate Gran Tesoro's route and arrange a so called coincidence with the Straw Hat Pirates. I planned to slowly earn his trust and pull him into my faction.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I never expected the prize to walk straight to my doorstep.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His lips curled into a sinister grin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since he came on his own, there is no way I will let him escape.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tesoro's voice grew colder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whatever he desires, as long as he is willing to stay and become my subordinate, I will give it to him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Money. Women. Power. Anything in this world that can be bought.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even the title of Pirate King.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes burned with obsession.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I control money itself. In this world, that makes me a god. I can fulfill every desire in his heart.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There is no reason for him to refuse.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tesoro straightened his back and turned away from the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One day, I will become the true god of this world. Even the Celestial Dragons will kneel before me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will rebuild the order of this world with my own hands.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who is allowed to laugh, and who is forbidden from smiling, I alone will decide.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice dropped to a chilling whisper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No one can stop my revenge. Not pirates, not the Marines, and not even the World Government.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elevator reached the highest floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shirogai sama, this way please.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baccarat smiled and gestured ahead as she led Shirogai toward the VIP room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Quite a quiet place,\" Shirogai said lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baccarat laughed softly. \"This floor is reserved exclusively for Tesoro sama's most important guests. There are no entertainment facilities here, so silence is only natural.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before they even reached the door, the massive golden gates swung open with a heavy bang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahahaha! What an honor!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tesoro's hearty laughter echoed from within as he stepped forward with arms wide open, his smile warm and welcoming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To think that such a distinguished figure would grace Gran Tesoro with his presence.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze swept over Shirogai, and he clapped his hands with visible delight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It truly is the Fifth Emperor himself. Today is a fortunate day for Gran Tesoro.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Tesoro sama is absolutely right,\" Baccarat said with a modest smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shirogai sama's arrival is a blessing to the entire city.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please, Shirogai sama, come inside,\" Tesoro said as he gestured toward the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once they stepped inside, Baccarat stopped at the doorway and sent Tesoro a discreet look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Success?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tesoro's eyes flashed with excitement. With a wave of his hand, the massive golden doors slammed shut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please, take a seat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tesoro sat at the head of the table and looked at Shirogai with a friendly smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Recently, the Straw Hat Pirates have stirred the entire world. Enies Lobby was defeated, and even the flag of the World Government was burned.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even the Buster Call failed to harm your crew in the slightest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tesoro clapped slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the end, the World Government had no choice but to fabricate a new explanation for your existence.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They now claim that you once belonged to the Marines, and that you became a pirate purely to research their nature so you could one day eradicate them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shirogai sama, that is quite a heroic story.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So that is their explanation now?\" Shirogai said with an indifferent smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In truth, Tesoro, you should know very well that I am simply a pirate.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tesoro was silent for a moment before breaking into laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You really are direct.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That is correct. Since they cannot defeat you, they attempt to smear you with lies and drag you into their own faction.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But such tricks could never fool me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes narrowed slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What truly puzzles me is why you traveled all this way to Gran Tesoro of your own will.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tesoro leaned forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No matter what it is you seek, I can give it to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All I ask in return is one thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Join us. Become the Vice Captain of Gran Tesoro. Become my subordinate.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tesoro waited for excitement, greed, or hesitation to appear on Shirogai's face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, he saw only calm amusement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a coincidence,\" Shirogai replied with a faint smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was planning to invite you to join my side as well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The empire you dream of cannot be built on money alone. A kingdom supported only by Berries may appear indestructible, but in truth, it is the easiest thing in the world to shatter.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked directly at Tesoro.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Join my organization. I will help you achieve what you truly want. Ain't my offer better?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tesoro froze for a brief moment, then burst out laughing while clutching his stomach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahahahaha! That is a fine joke!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You want me to become a pirate?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahahaha…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>",1210,"2026-06-06T06:44:36.998Z",1,"novelbin.me","ab897c88ab10fa04b1e836ccabb62ff77d4ca272fc54771f01fc67bac31c0966","i-m-a-plunderer-in-the-world-of-one-piece-chapter-274","i-m-a-plunderer-in-the-world-of-one-piece-chapter-273",652,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-a-plunderer-in-the-world-of-one-piece-cover.jpg"]
