Chapter 1318: The Real Deal
Su Xiao and Doflamingo stood by the window and watched Jack leave.
— If I were you, I would never cooperate with the Beast pirates. How can you keep everything you get from them??
Su Xiao shook his head and replied — " I don't have a choice.
These four simple words revealed all of his sadness.
From the outside, it might seem that Doflamingo was used by Kaido, but was it really so? Of course not. Doflamingo actually got his hands on new communication channels thanks to Kaido.
As for the artificial Devil Fruit, Doflamingo might not even be able to recover the cost of producing it, but thanks to Kaido, he was making quite a profit from producing it.
And perhaps most importantly, Doflamingo may have used Kaido's reputation to conduct questionable transactions. Since Kaido himself had gained enough benefits, he could only turn a blind eye to it.
— One of the famous swords will be delivered to Dress Rosa soon, " Doflamingo suddenly said. Such a fast delivery meant only one thing — he had paid a truly huge sum for it.
— My materials and a sword in exchange for five Apollons.
— It's a deal.
Doflamingo wasn't the leader of the Quixote family for nothing, but his relationship with the four emperors, the World Government, and other bigwigs spoke volumes.
Jack left Dress Rosa that night. He left not because he couldn't achieve the desired result, but because something happened to Kaido. An unknown group attacked Kaido territory. One of the two remaining Stars was seriously injured, and the other went in pursuit of this group.
Just when it was thought that Jack was away for a long time, his fleet returned to Dress Rosa early the next morning.
It was a very chilly morning, and the sun wasn't in much of a hurry to get up.
Jack walked through the streets with a grim expression on his face, which made ordinary people try to avoid him for miles.
Half an hour later, Jack arrived at the villa grounds. He went straight up to the fourth floor and kicked open the big iron door without knocking.
*Boom!*
When there was a loud knock, Sugar, who was on the second floor of the villa, woke up. Wearing only her underwear she crawled under the bed.
Her first thought was that a bomb had gone off above her.
Previously, Sugar did move to the underground port, but it was too humid, and given Sugar's body, she wouldn't be able to live in such a place for long, so she returned back without living there for two days.
There was a loud bang in the room on the fourth floor. The iron door clattered to the floor, and Jack and three of his men entered the room.
Su Xiao was creating an alchemy bomb when Jack decided to kick open the door, which made him confused.
But from the look on his face, Jack didn't seem to be here to make trouble.
Walking over to the table, this giant placed a long cloth bag on it with a bang. After that, he remained standing on the spot without saying a word.
Su Xiao took it and opened it to see a long sword in its scabbard.
It was a large and sharp sword.
This sword was called "Varabide" and it wasn't among the best swords, but it didn't make it bad.
After checking its stats, he saw that it was of gold quality with a rating of 384 points.
Given the quality of this sword, if a sword from the top 20 list was brought to him, it would clearly have a legendary quality.
The swords of the world of Van Pease were different from other swords in that their equipment requirements were very small, but to demonstrate their strength, you had to have a lot of skill.
For example, to unleash the power of this sword, it was necessary to have a level 30 swordsmanship skill, and at least a specialized quality.
The equipment requirements for this sword were ridiculously low: 20 points of strength, 15 points of agility, 13 points of stamina, and a minimum of level 5 swordsmanship.
The meaning of Jack's move was very obvious. He wanted Su Xiao to create bombs for him in exchange for this sword. So the collaboration between the "villains"was arranged. Such people had no eternal friends, only eternal interests.
Jack brought the sword before Doflamingo did. This was something Su Xiao had never expected. Jack, who always seemed unreasonable, could sometimes be surprisingly direct.
— Five, " Jack said, and held up five fingers.
— Since this is our first deal, I would have made six, but... Where are the materials?
— … — Jack said nothing. He did try to find the materials, but all his attempts were unsuccessful.
Doflamingo could buy everything he needed because of his identity as the leader of the underground world. In the New World, Doflamingo's purchasing channels surpassed even those of the World Government.
Just because Doflamingo was able to buy everything he needed didn't mean Jack could do the same. Last night, he chopped up two well-known merchants of the underground world and fed them to the dogs, but he still couldn't find even a gram of sun crystal.
— So you didn't bring any material to create the Wrath of Apollo? Su Xiao asked, but he didn't see anything wrong with it since Jack had already brought him a sword.
— That's right, " Jack replied, not even intending to threaten him, as he knew it wouldn't work on Su Xiao.
— Doflamingo... He seems to have obtained enough material to create the Wrath of Apollo.
Hearing this, Jack immediately left the room with his men, looking extremely reckless.
— He won't say I told him, will he?
Ten minutes later, Doflamingo handed Jack six sets of Apollo's Wrath crafting kits with swollen veins on his forehead.
When Jack went upstairs, Doflamingo began to swear softly, and in this stream of profanity, "Byakuya" and "Sooner or later" could be heard.».
Jack was... A really honest guy.
In the eyes of outsiders, villains always walked around with a stern expression and were cold-blooded, but was this really the case in everyday life? The answer is no.
In Su Xiao's opinion, Doflamingo was a conspirator or tyrant who had a smile on his face but a different mind, while Jack was reckless, but he was also a straightforward person. Once he wanted to do something, regardless of the risks, he would do it, even if he might die in the process .
If Kaido had sent Jack to attack the Marine headquarters, Jack wouldn't have even thought twice, at most he would have nodded thoughtfully, then attacked the Marine headquarters alone and would have ended up getting beaten up by the famous monsters from the Marine Headquarters.
Four hours later, the fireball in Su Xiao's hand shrank to the size of an apple and soon stopped being bright red.
Su Xiao heaved a sigh of relief.
The sixth Wrath of Apollo was successfully created.
— Once activated, the bomb will detonate in thirty seconds.
Although Su Xiao could interrupt the activation of Apollo's Wrath, outsiders couldn't repeat his feat. To do this, you had to have a very good understanding of the internal structure of Apollo.
Because he had created six bombs in a row, Su Xiao only had 2,000 mana left. At the cost of 3,000 mana points, he obtained a good sword.
No matter how you look at it, it was definitely very lucrative.
As Jack removed the six bombs, his grim expression softened considerably.
