"Kaido..." Charlotte Linlin threw a punch at him.
After a brutal beating, Golden Lion and his gang joined in the brawl.
Since they can't be killed and will recover in the blink of an eye, you can attack them however you want.
Princess Chaoyin is busy wiping the tables and chairs.
Even though there weren't many customers, the young girl felt uneasy if she didn't do something.
Dimon sat behind the bar, spreading out a newspaper to read some past news.
He certainly heard the huge commotion outside, and guessed that Kaido had become arrogant and gone to fight with others.
"Hehehe... Boss, I'm here again."
Familiar laughter rang out as Kaido pushed open the butterfly door and stepped into the bar.
"Kai... Kaido!" Orsia was startled and quickly stepped aside.
Dimon didn't even look up. "Returning the Devil Fruit? You're pretty quick."
Kaido's smile froze. Devil Fruits are very rare, and it's not easy to get one.
"Sorry, boss, we don't have any Devil Fruits on hand yet."
That's not Kaido's voice.
Dimon then looked up and, upon seeing the man's appearance, the man's name immediately popped into his mind.
Rocks D. Gibbeck, the ruler of Beehive Island.
After Lockes entered, six more people filed in.
Edward Newgate, the "Whitebeard".
"Golden Lion" Shiki.
"Gourmet Knight" Long Bread.
"Former Empress" Gloriosa.
"BIG·MOM" Charlotte Linlin.
“Miss. Bakkin” Bakkingom Stussy.
“These are all familiar faces…” Dimon chuckled. “Welcome to the Immortal Bar.”
Lockes stared intently as Dimon walked to the bar and sat down.
As soon as he sat down, he got straight to the point:
"Boss, are you interested in joining our Rocks Pirates?"
Chapter 5 The Plan to Raid the Celestial Dragons
Dimon's sudden agreement to join the group caught Rocks completely off guard.
He was prepared to spend a lot of time explaining things, after all, the other party was a brewer who could create the wine of immortality.
People like that usually wouldn't be interested in becoming pirates, right?
"You really agree to join our Rocks Pirates?" Rocks asked, looking completely surprised.
"Why wouldn't I accept an invitation from a famous pirate crew?"
Dimon smiled slightly, able to guess what Lockes was planning.
Although he doesn't have much power now, and is merely immortal, it's impossible for others to control him. As long as the Tide Sound Guardian Group summons him again, he can respond to the summons and escape at any time.
Therefore, agreeing to join posed little risk to him.
On the contrary, there are many benefits.
"However, even if you join, the Elixir of Immortality won't be free."
Having his thoughts exposed, Lox wasn't embarrassed at all. Instead, he laughed and said, "Welcome to the brewery!"
He was the first to clap, and the others followed suit.
After the awkward welcoming ceremony ended, Rocks said again:
"I heard Kaido say that your elixir of immortality requires one Devil Fruit for each cup."
"The effects of the wine are undoubtedly real, and the price is not expensive."
"I can buy it from you for 100 million Berries a cup!"
A typical Devil Fruit costs around 100 million Berries, so this price is reasonable.
Dimon shook his head: "It's easy to exchange Devil Fruits for money, but it's a bit troublesome to buy Devil Fruits with money."
"Boss, why do you insist on having a Devil Fruit?" Whitebeard asked, puzzled. "A person can only eat one. Eating a second one will kill them."
“Devil Fruits are the ingredients for brewing the Elixir of Immortality,” Dimon replied. “One fruit can only make one bottle, and one bottle can only yield four cups. There are only three cups left.”
Upon hearing this, everyone finally understood.
Gloriosa exclaimed in surprise, "I see. But this is the first time I've ever heard of brewing wine with Devil Fruits."
No one has ever done such a thing before, and there's no history of anyone using Devil Fruits to brew alcohol.
This thing is known as the "treasure of the sea," and even in the New World, where powerful beings abound, most people will never see a single fruit in their lifetime.
Even those who have eaten Devil Fruits might not encounter one.
Dimon turned to the little princess and instructed, "Aursia, they are guests, go and pour them a glass of water."
"Yes, Lord Dimon."
Princess Chaoyin hurriedly poured water for Rocks and the others.
Charlotte Linlin picked up her water glass and gulped it down. "Boss, don't be so stingy. At least offer us some drinks. By the way, I still don't know your name?"
Dimon smiled and said, "I only have the Elixir of Immortality here, nothing else. If you want to drink it, you'll have to trade it for a Devil Fruit."
He glanced at her a few times and realized that Charlotte Linlin was indeed a great beauty when she was young, and her figure was not the same as that of the later Big Mom.
Feeling the man's gaze, Charlotte Lingling's lips curled into a slight smile: "Am I pretty? If I sleep with you, can I have a drink in return?"
Upon hearing this, Gloriaosa looked at him with disdain: "Shameless woman."
"It's my business if I want to do it," Charlotte Linlin pouted.
Stussy retorted with equal disdain: "You filthy woman, Dimon, don't fall for her tricks."
For a moment, Dimon didn't know how to complain.
Rocks grinned: "I don't have a Devil Fruit right now, but I'll have one soon."
He has a lot of money.
But there really is no Devil Fruit.
His goal wasn't ordinary Devil Fruits; he wouldn't bother eating ordinary ones, and of course, he had no interest in deliberately collecting them.
However, now that the pirate crew has gained a brewer, who can brew immortality wine as long as there are Devil Fruits, the more the merrier.
"Then come find me again when you have obtained the fruit."
Dimon wasn't in a hurry. As a demon, he had already gained the power of immortality, and time was the least valuable thing to him.
Rocks extended a finger, his gaze fierce and insane:
"Don't say that, Dimon, I have a plan."
Do you know where it's easiest to get Devil Fruits?
"No, in other words, who has the most Devil Fruits?"
Dimon raised an eyebrow: "You're planning to plunder a Celestial Dragon?"
Rocks grinned maniacally: "Those World Nobles have a lot of Devil Fruits in their hands. We're pirates, what we want, we just have to steal it, right?"
The Celestial Dragons are world nobles, descendants of the 20 royal families who founded the World Government 800 years ago.
Let alone robbing Celestial Dragons, even failing to kneel before them or daring to look them directly in the eye is considered a great disrespect.
Even the slightest touch on the other party could attract the attention of a naval admiral.
"Great idea!" Dimon exclaimed. "Go quickly and bring back as much as you can. I'll prepare some fine wine to treat you."
Rocks smiled and said, "Now that you've joined the pirate crew, we should all go together since we're going to be on an operation."
Who wants to go on a suicide mission to Mary Geoise with you guys?
Dimon rolled his eyes. He was just immortal, but his combat power was roughly equivalent to that of an ordinary person.
"I'm just a brewer, I have no fighting ability, I'm not going."
"Don't be afraid, Dimon, I'll protect you!" Rocks chuckled, "That place isn't that scary. Most of the Celestial Dragons are useless."
At this moment, the Golden Lion interjected, "Hehehe, we'll invade from the sky, grab what we can, and run."
To be honest, it was really exciting.
But a wise person does not stand under a dangerous wall!
Dimon shook his head and said, "Im, the Five Elders, the Knights of God, and the other Celestial Dragons are indeed trash, but those high-ranking Celestial Dragons are not to be trifled with."
Lox was stunned for a moment, his face full of surprise: "You actually know about Im's existence?"
It's not surprising that people know about the Five Elders and the Knights of God.
The former is the highest authority in the world government, as everyone knows.
The latter is the Knights Order that guards the Celestial Dragons. Although its members are shrouded in mystery, those with good connections have heard of them to some extent.
But Im is different!
That person is the King of the World, the Lord of the Void Throne, hidden behind the scenes. Even some ordinary Celestial Dragons are unaware of his existence.
The brewer who can create the wine of immortality is indeed mysterious!
Lox grinned, not pressing the matter further, and instead asked, "What good suggestions do you have?"
“A direct attack on the Holy Land would be too dangerous. It would be better to kidnap a Celestial Dragon and demand a ransom,” Dimon suggested.
"A ransom?" Lockes pondered for a moment and also thought it was a good idea.
A direct attack on the holy site is indeed very dangerous.
He had been to the Holy Land once and even greeted Im, but at this stage, he was no match for Im, so he ran away after meeting him.
"Then do it!"
Lox immediately stood up and gestured, "Dimon, come on over!"
"Is it just us?" Dimon glanced at the group of people present. "The Rocks Pirates must have more than just these few people."
"We need to leave some people to guard the hive; the number of us is enough."
Ultimately, Dimon joined the operation.
He instructed Orsia to look after the bar, and then set off to leave with Locke and the others.
At the port, Dimon saw the Rocks Pirates' ship.
The Sword of Gibeck.
This ship was much larger than ordinary pirate ships, and the name "ROCKS" was written on its black sails, with the "O" represented by a blood-red skull.
The enormous pirate ship set sail in full view of everyone.
Chapter 6: Capturing the Celestial Dragons, Encountering Garp
A gentle breeze blows across the sea, and the blue waves ripple.
Beehive Island grew smaller and smaller in view until it disappeared completely at the horizon.
Before his journey, Dimon rarely traveled by boat, and riding a sailboat was a first for him, which was quite novel.
"So, where are we going to capture the Celestial Dragons?" Whitebeard asked the captain, holding his naginata.
With one foot on the figurehead, Rocks declared with great bravado, "Of course, we're going to Mary Geoise!"
