"Huh?Are you trying to say that you can call in Admiral Zephyr?"
"Hahaha, you're just a dumb colonel. What nonsense are you talking about!?"
Bege scoffed.
"You have your own intelligence network, right? Just check for yourself if a warship is approaching the West Blue, and you'll see," Yeyin replied indifferently.
"You're that cleaning-loving colonel from the reports, Grote Yeyin, aren't you?"
At that moment, Bege remembered hearing about someone who he initially took as a joke.
But seeing Yeyin now, he realized this guy wasn't someone to be taken lightly!
"How about it? Just make a bit of a mess, and I'll guarantee Admiral Zephyr won't make a move here," Yeyin said again.
"Hmph!"
Bege knocked over the fruit bowl on his table.
[Ding! Picked up fruit spilled by Bege, gained 1 Observation Haki point.]
[Ding! Picked up …]
Then Yeyin got to work.
"Oh, by the way, Bege, I'll be here waiting for Admiral Zephyr and the others to arrive."
"During this time, I'll come by every day to clean, so make sure it stays messy!"
After saying this, Yeyin left.
Once Yeyin had gone, Bege had the same thought as everyone else who'd been affected by Yeyin.
Is this kid… a weirdo?
However, Yeyin had no interest in what Bege thought of him at this moment!
He had now found a very interesting person.
This guy's Observation Haki was famously powerful!
"Excuse me, sir, may I gamble here?"
Yeyin approached a tall man and asked.
To call him "tall" wasn't even enough; Yeyin, at nearly 1.8 meters, looked like a child next to him.
"Yes, you may."
The man moved aside with a friendly smile.
"Mr. Issho, after the game, would you care to join me for a drink?" Yeyin asked directly.
Upon hearing this, Issho's hand holding the chips trembled slightly.
"Sure."
Soon, after winning tens of millions of Berries together, they left.
Issho's Observation Haki was no joke; with dice games, he could sense every detail clearly. [Although he was blind.]
The two of them arrived at a tavern.
"Colonel Yeyin, may I ask why you sought me out?" Issho asked after taking a sip of his drink.
"I'd like to invite Mr. Issho to join the Marines," Yeyin said directly.
Even though Issho was blind, he was incredibly powerful!
With him around, Yeyin wouldn't need to fight. He could simply focus on cleaning up trash.
"I'm sorry, Colonel Yeyin, but I have no interest in joining the Marines."
"I'd rather use my own means to help others," Issho replied honestly.
His approach was to gamble and use his winnings to aid the poor. A small gesture, yet one he remained committed to.
"Mr. Issho, I hope you'll allow me to finish."
"If my approach doesn't meet your expectations, I won't insist."
Yeyin understood Issho's sense of justice, so he didn't argue.
"I'd like to hear more," Issho said, putting down his glass.
"The first island I arrived at after leaving Marineford…"
