"Ah~ I can't take it anymore, these guys are too noisy."
"Newgate, bill!"
"Put it on Rocks's tab."
Whitebeard, unable to stand the chattering Roger Pirates, got up and left the bar.
Rocks and Roger challenged and threatened each other, but in the end, neither made a move.
The Roger Pirates sat down in the bar as they wished. Shakky first greeted the pirates who worked for her for free, serving drinks and food to the Roger Pirate Crew, then quietly approached Roger and whispered, "Roger, where is Rayleigh?"
Roger's eyes, which were completely heart-shaped as he looked at Shakky, suddenly froze when he heard this. The memory of his conversation with Rayleigh in the Captain's cabin once again struck him hard.
Roger pretended as if nothing had happened.
"Oh~ I did ask him to come, but he said he suddenly felt a bit unwell and stayed on the ship to sleep."
Shakky sighed softly and turned away, a little dejected, puffing out her cheeks.
Clearly, Rayleigh's evasive behavior had hurt her; she had given him the note herself.
On the other side, Hitler gently patted Gloriosa's perky rear.
"That's the Roger you've been thinking about. He's here, aren't you going over?"
Gloriosa glared at Hitler , annoyed, "You scoundrel! You just love playing these games!"
Then she raised her hand and waved towards Roger.
"Hey! Roger! Long time no see! I miss you so much~!"
However, Roger didn't hear her at all, or perhaps he heard but pretended not to, his attention entirely focused on Shakky as she turned and walked away.
Seeing this, a hint of sadness flashed in Gloriosa's eyes.
Although she had now completely become Hitler 's, a trace of lingering affection for Roger still remained in her heart.
But in the end... this man was still completely uninterested in her.
"Roger!!"
An enraged Gloriosa roared out loud, her voice drowning out all the noise in the bar.
Roger turned his head, looking impatient.
"Why are you yelling at me, Gloriosa!"
"I like you!" Gloriosa shouted, "I'm being controlled by Hitler 's ability right now! I hope to be saved by you!!"
"Huh? You said you're being controlled?!"
Roger looked at Gloriosa, who was sitting next to Hitler , with the latter's arm around her waist.
"Aren't you two in a very loving relationship?!"
"If you're really being controlled by an ability, then shed a tear for me now!"
Gloriosa felt wronged inside, and tears indeed welled up and streamed down her face.
Roger's expression stiffened, and Jabba next to him immediately egged him on.
"Oh dear, oh dear~ You made her cry, Roger, you're truly wicked!"
"Get lost! I was just joking!"
Roger, embarrassed and angry, yelled at Jabba, but when he turned back to look at Gloriosa, his expression became serious.
"I don't like you, Gloriosa. The only woman I like is Shakky!"
"This won't change whether you're pitiful or not!"
"And besides... don't think I don't know about your relationship with Hitler ! You've been his woman for a long time!!"
Gloriosa's continuously flowing tears instantly stopped, and she snorted unhappily.
"Yes! You useless simp! The man I love most now is Hitler ! I have no feelings for you left at all!!"
With that, Gloriosa snuggled into Hitler 's arms, looked up, and kissed his cheek, leaving a red lipstick mark.
Hitler smiled faintly and embraced Gloriosa.
Today's event marked the end of Gloriosa's past romantic feelings.
From now on, Gloriosa would completely belong to him; there would be no room for any other man in her heart!
However... while Gloriosa's heart was settled, a little feud had also been formed between Hitler and Roger.
"Roger!!"
Hitler spoke, addressing the man who would become the Pirate King.
"Before you leave this island, let's find a place to fight!"
"You made my woman cry! I can't let this go without a Fight!"
Roger immediately pouted, annoyed.
"You bastard! Don't twist words! I'm the victim, alright?!"
Hitler responded with a smile, ""That's how this world is! "Reasoning isn't our pirate custom! Our swords are!!"
"Hmph! If that's the case, then come on! Be careful not to even withstand one of my slashes!!"
"If you can do that... I look forward to it!"
Their challenge attracted the attention of everyone in the bar.
Compared to the confrontation with Rocks, Hitler and Roger's exchange seemed like a genuine deathmatch was about to happen.
John, Wang Zhi, Silver Axe (formerly Fierce, who earned the title Silver Axe), and others all showed a hint of anticipation in their eyes.
As the second youngest member of the entire Rocks Pirate Crew, Hitler 's strength had been continuously growing.
However, up until now, Hitler had only relied on the basic abilities of his Devil Fruit to resolve almost all his battles, making it impossible for people to gauge his true strength.
Now that an opportunity had finally arisen, they all wanted to know how strong Hitler truly was.
Especially Wang Zhi, his eyes flickered, wanting to know even more.
Because this would determine the success or failure of one of his plans!
After dealing with Hitler , Roger acted as if nothing had happened, turning his head to greet Charlotte Linlin and her group.
"Where's Newgate?! I want to drink with him!!"
"He's already gone back, Mama mamahaha... He found you guys too noisy."
Roger pouted; why was it that one after another, no one would make things easy for him?
Suddenly, with a thud.
Shakky, who had been sulking alone by the bar, fell to the ground.
"Wah—! Shakky collapsed!!"
"Lady Shakky!!"
The entire bar instantly plunged into chaos.
Countless pirates who worked for free in the bar surrounded Shakky, their eyes filled with anticipation and eagerness.
"I want to Help... I want to Help ..."
"Get lost!!"
Gloriosa roared, driving all the surrounding pirates away.
"No men are allowed to come near!!"
She helped the fallen Shakky up.
With Shakky's physical condition, falling like that wouldn't cause any serious harm, but... "It's Lovesickness..."
Gloriosa's expression was solemn; she had also suffered from this illness because of Roger in the past.
It was clear that Shakky was like this because Rayleigh hadn't shown up.
"Honestly, these men, one after another, are either simps or cowards! They're all a bunch of good-for-nothings!"
Gloriosa cursed angrily, including all the male pirates except Hitler in her tirade.
However, everyone was concerned about Shakky at the moment, and no one cared what Gloriosa was shouting.
She scooped Shakky up in her arms and walked towards the stairs leading to the bar's back room.
"I'm taking Shakky upstairs to rest! You scoundrels, no one but women are allowed up there!!"
Hitler watched Gloriosa disappear with Shakky, then turned and left the bar, walking towards the coast where Roger and his crew had hidden their Pirate Ship.
Before fighting Roger, he felt it was necessary to have a match with Rayleigh first..
