Chapter 326

~6 min read 1,035 words

Putting the two Devil Fruits into his system space, Karl closed his eyes and lay on the soft sofa, pretending to doze off, while calculating in his mind how to arrange Teach.

The simplest way would be to follow the plot, let Thatch "inadvertently" obtain the Dark-Dark Fruit, thereby causing Teach to defect.

This way, Karl wouldn't expose himself, nor would he cause a butterfly effect.

But if he did that, wouldn't he be the one delivering the Devil Fruit to Teach? Working hard without any extra benefits—Karl wouldn't do that.

"How did the matter go?"

Baccarat smiled slightly: "BOSS, don't you trust me when I do things?"

"That's true. Remember, you must let Karl and his subordinates have fun and enjoy themselves. As long as they don't win too much, we can accept it, understand?"

Baccarat nodded slightly: "Understood."

"By the way, go and notify that Navy Hero later, tell him the items have been counted, and just bring him to me for the transaction."

"Understood."

Baccarat turned and left, the sound of her high heels sounding exceptionally clear in the empty room.

"Knock knock knock!"

Karl opened his eyes and called out groggily: "Come in."

Baccarat pushed the door open and saw Karl looking like he had just woken up. She said apologetically: "Sorry, Mr. Karl, I didn't know you were sleeping."

Karl waved his hand: "It's fine, I just woke up. Is something the matter?"

"It's already dinner time. Would you like to go out to eat, or should I have it sent over?"

Karl scratched his head: "Hmm... let's go out to eat!" Then Karl took out a Den Den Mushi.

"Nelson, it's me."

Nelson, who was hugging a bunny girl, shook his tiger-like body and said seriously: "Sir, has something happened?"

"How could there be so many things? Notify everyone to go to... hey, where is the place you guys eat?" "On the 4th floor."

"Oh, did you hear that? Notify everyone to gather on the 4th floor, tell them I'm treating everyone to dinner!"

"Yes!"

After the call was hung up, Nelson glanced at the clock hanging high and couldn't help but scratch his head: "Time flies so fast!"

"Brothers! Stop for a moment, the boss is treating us to dinner, gather on the 4th floor. Whoever dares to be slow by even a step, the consequences will be very severe!!!"

The Navy soldiers playing in this area scrambled to organize and gather.

After eating, Nelson took his men away again, probably because they hadn't had enough fun yet.

Nonsense, winning money like crazy, who wouldn't want to keep playing? How much salary can you get as a Navy soldier?

Karl, led by Baccarat, arrived at the so-called "Golden Emperor's Treasury." Tesoro seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and as soon as he saw Karl coming, he greeted him quickly.

"Good evening, Lord Karl. Your gold has been counted. The total value is 64.6478 billion Berries. I'll calculate it for you as 65 billion Berries directly. What do you think?"

For Tesoro, this price would allow him to make about 5%-20%. After all, Karl's gold was all antiques, and selling them as art was much more valuable than selling them purely as gold; it was just that the shipping was slower.

Anyway, if Karl wasn't satisfied, adding a little more money or even losing money would be fine. In short, he had to take this batch of gold.

Because only in this way would the price of gold not fluctuate, and he could control all the gold in the world.

Some people might have doubts: isn't Tesoro a Gold-Gold Fruit user? If he wants gold, can't he just make it himself? Why spend money to buy it?

Yes, Tesoro can indeed mass-produce gold, but he can't create it out of thin air. He can only assimilate objects by using gold as a medium to turn them into gold, and once this kind of gold touches water, it will return to its original state.

"Sure, give me the money!"

Hearing this, Tesoro was stunned for a moment. No, such a big transaction, just so sloppy?

"Are you sure?"

Karl grinned: "Hahahaha, it's just a little pocket money, why be so calculating? Don't you think?"

Money is secondary; the important thing is the big picture. Once the big picture is opened, money will naturally come. Applause if you understand.

"Mr. Karl, you are truly generous! Speaking of which, your gold seems to be antiques from over 400 years ago, and they have some connection with the legendary City of Gold - Shandora civilization. You didn't find the legendary City of Gold, did you?"

Karl gave a thumbs up: "Good eye, you even saw that. That's right, this gold was all found in the City of Gold. Besides these, there's a huge pile, it's just not convenient to bring it over."

Tesoro gasped. Good guy, it turns out it was all picked up for free! No wonder he was so generous. He had thought he had encountered a sucker, but it turned out the clown was himself!

Even Baccarat on the side couldn't help but swallow her saliva. There was still a huge pile that wasn't brought over? If it were all brought over, wouldn't it be able to directly empty the BOSS's treasury?

"Uh, Lord Karl is really... lucky!"

Saying that, Tesoro was screaming in his heart: Why, why, why is Karl a Navy soldier, and a Navy Hero at that? Otherwise, all the gold would have been his in the end.

Karl waved his hand nonchalantly: "Let's not talk about that. Where is my money?"

Tesoro took a deep breath, adjusted his breathing, took out the key, and opened the treasury door.

Click click click~

A room full of gold and jewelry appeared in front of Karl, and piles of banknotes were neatly placed in the aisle. There was visual impact, but only a little bit.

After all, the maximum denomination of Berries is 5,000 Berries. 65 billion piled up actually isn't much, just a few small hills high.

If the maximum denomination of Berries was 100, the entire treasury probably wouldn't be able to hold it.
