Nuo Xia was stunned for a moment, then shrugged speechlessly, "It doesn't matter, why are you talking about it in such detail?"
"Why doesn't it matter? It has something to do with you."
Stacy blinked, "Speaking of which, Lingling had always wanted to kill you directly to avenge the wedding. But after you defeated her three years ago, she seemed to have another idea, and wanted to conquer you and take her into her family.
of……"
"Stop talking nonsense."
Nuo Xia glared at her with a dark face, and Stacy was not annoyed. She picked up the goblet with a smile, signaled to Nuo Xia, and drank it all in one gulp.
Nuo Xia also raised his glass perfunctorily, and when he was about to put it down, he found that the emperors of the dark world at the next table were looking at him with great interest.
"Are you the samurai from Wano, Fujiwara?"
Du Felder, the king of loan sharks, laughed and raised his glass, "Your reputation is very loud. I didn't expect that Stacy would finally be willing to bring you out at this tea party. How about we get to know each other as a favor?"
, make a friend?”
The other people also picked up their wine glasses, and their attitudes were quite friendly.
However.
"Not interested."
What no one expected was that "Fujiwara" just glanced at each one, then lazily withdrew his gaze and started drinking by himself.
They were completely indifferent and didn't take them seriously at all.
How dare this guy?
Du Felder and others were a little surprised at first by Nosha's indifference, and then their hearts suddenly surged with anger, and their faces became a little cold.
How many years, how many years has it been since no one dared to treat them like this?
Even Big Mom, who is one of the emperors of the sea, is very polite to them and sends special invitations to the tea party every year.
He is just a thug under Stacy. Even if he is the top cadre, he is indeed very powerful.
But why do you dare to show off in front of them on such an occasion?
All the emperors of the dark world had ugly expressions. Only Morgans, the president of the World Economic News Agency, who was sitting directly opposite Stacy, frowned and looked a little confused after hearing Nosha's answer.
Such a familiar voice...
I seem to have heard it somewhere? And probably more than once.
But he had obviously never seen this Fujiwara samurai before. It was strange... Morgans became more and more suspicious. He stopped the loan shark king who was about to get angry. Just as he was about to ask, he suddenly heard a commotion coming from the outer hall.
Came from over there.
The next moment, the half-closed door suddenly opened.
Among all the Charlotte children, a slim beauty with long pink hair stepped into the hall with graceful steps.
Walking along the red carpet, the guests on both sides immediately stood up and saluted nervously. At the Dark Emperor's table, the Loan Usury King and others, although they did not stand up, smiled and raised their glasses.
With such a grand occasion, the identity of the person coming was naturally self-evident.
It is none other than the owner of Cake Island, the Sea Emperor Charlotte Lingling.
His appearance has completely changed... Under the shadow of the white hood, Nuo Xia's eyes flickered. Stacy was really not talking nonsense. The bigmom now was at least 80% similar to when she was young. Only the occasional forehead wrinkles were exposed.
Her true age.
"Mama, Mama, everyone arrived very early, so I kept you waiting for a long time!"
As soon as Bigmom came in, he noticed the strange atmosphere at the Emperor of Dark World table, but he didn't take it to heart. He smiled at Stacy and others as he passed by, then sat down in front of the pink sofa, looking happy to the audience.
He laughed and said:
"Everyone seems to have arrived. In this case, I will announce here that this year's tea party will officially begin from now on!"
Bang bang bang!
The audience burst into thunderous applause, and all the guests stopped what they were doing and clapped hurriedly, including the top VIPs at the Big Mom table.
The children of the Charlotte family, who had been prepared for a long time, were also following the instructions from their eldest brother Perospero's eyes, clapping and cheering, trying their best to create a perfect atmosphere for the tea party.
"Everyone! It's time to start, please enjoy all kinds of delicious desserts!"
The melodious classical music played, and the Homiz who had been waiting by the wall laughed and sang loudly:
"Oh, the tea party has already started~?"
"Raise a toast, my friend!?"
"Forget your worries, forget your sorrows, there is nothing worth being sad about anymore!?"
"Because~?"
"Here are the nations!"
"A country without oppression! A country without hunger! A country where all races live together as equals!?"
"The country of desserts! The country of cakes! The country of chocolate and cream~?"
…
The lyrics are very different from what I heard in the port.
Under the white hood, Nuo Xia listened to the melodious melody in his ears, with a bit of sarcasm on his lips. He continued to drink red wine with a calm face. In this lively atmosphere, he couldn't help but look a little out of place.
At this time, as the song finished, the atmosphere of the tea party became more and more lively, and guests at many tables were already chatting with each other enthusiastically.
Talk about it.
In addition to giving gifts to show goodwill to Big Mom, this is the biggest reason why many guests actively attend appointments and come to attend tea parties every year.
Especially for some leaders of underground forces, it is not easy for them to meet other big figures in the dark world.
The tea party is undoubtedly the best opportunity for them to get to know each other and discuss and contact each other.
After countless tea parties, the entire dark world, with the Charlotte family as the core, has become a huge dark web of interests, criss-crossing and extremely complex.
This is the foundation of the Four Emperors level power.
In comparison, what Doflamingo did in Beihai was like a child playing house.
"When are you going to take action?"
Stacy's low voice came to my ears.
"Just wait a little longer."
Nuo Xia did not look back. He gently held the goblet and stared at the red wine shaking back and forth in the glass. "It would be a pity not to appreciate such an elegant scene for a while."
So calm... Stacy pursed her lips and couldn't help it. She wanted to ask Nosha how sure she was.
But just as he was about to open his mouth, the crisp sound of footsteps came from behind his ears.
Looking back, a girl with long white hair appeared in front of her.
She has a delicate appearance and a heroic spirit between her eyebrows, but the most eye-catching thing is her exaggeratedly long legs.
It was Smoothie who had just returned from Impel Down a year ago and resumed his role as the fourth general.
At this moment, the white-haired girl was holding two glasses of drinks with completely different colors in her hands. She bent down and placed two goblets filled with drinks in front of Stacy and Du Felder respectively, smiling softly.
Vocal:
"Here, Miss Stracey, this is the "Indescribably Expensive Miss" drink specially prepared for you."
It was a glass of drink that was as bright as gold, with faint red light swimming and hovering in it.
Stracey looked a little unnatural, but she quickly concealed it, pursed her lips and smiled, thanked her, took the goblet, and tasted it elegantly.
But when Smoothie turned her head, she immediately put down the goblet, and at the same time quietly picked up the napkin, pretending to wipe her mouth, and spit out the golden drink in her mouth.
"As for you, Mr. Field, try this cup of "The Stingy Man Who Can't Give Up a Penny." Speaking of which, this is much harder to collect than Miss Stracey's cup."
The color of this cup is a rich and pure dark green, but there is a thin gray film floating on the top.
"Ha! Thanks a lot, I'm sorry to bother you, Smoothie!"
Du Felder, the king of loan sharks, laughed, raised his glass and drank half of it, then closed his eyes, lay on the armchair and let out a long sigh of satisfaction.
"After that, it's you, Mr. Fujiwara."
Smoothie turned back at this time, looked at Nuo Xia under the white hood with a smile, snapped his fingers and said:
"Brother Perospero specifically asked me to treat you with the highest standards, so... would you like a drink too?"
The figure under the white hood didn't even raise his head, still shaking the red wine glass quietly as if he didn't realize it.
"Ah, you're welcome. Is it because it's your first time at a tea party and it's hard to choose?"
Smoothie was not angry either, and said with a smile, "Then let me help you make the decision, um... how about the "old aristocratic warrior who wanders the sea"?"
"Fujiwara Samurai" who seemed to be moved by this proposal, who had been silent until now, finally sighed and responded.
"You have changed a lot since then. At least you didn't have this bad habit back then. It seems... that the navy made a wrong and stupid decision to release you again."
Back then? Navy?
What is this guy talking about... Smoothie frowned slightly, his eyes showing displeasure, and the next moment his eyes widened suddenly, with a look of horror on his face.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Nuo Xia finally took off her white hood, raised her head, and revealed a handsome, expressionless face, "Smoothie."
It's him!
How is that possible!
Wasn't he still in the East China Sea some time ago? How could he suddenly be here?!
There was a turmoil in his heart. Smoothie stumbled back in panic. The round table behind him was knocked over and fell to the ground. Cups and plates clinked and fell to the ground. Several female guests around him stood up in shock.
This small commotion instantly brought the lively atmosphere of the entire banquet hall to a halt. Almost all the guests subconsciously turned their heads and looked this way.
"What's going on, Smoothie?"
Big Mom, who was smiling and chatting with someone, also frowned and looked over displeased.
"Mom, mom..."
Smoothie struggled to get up and pointed forward with a pale face, "It's that man! He's here!"
In fact, she no longer needs to remind her.
Because Nuo Xia had stood up slowly at this moment and looked directly at Big Mom on the sofa with a calm expression. After seeing his appearance clearly, all the guests were stunned in place.
The next moment, there was a sound of air-conditioning in the entire banquet hall.
"My, my god...it's a white dragon!"
"Am I dazzled..."
"What's going on? Why does this guy... appear here!"
…
The tea party was in an uproar, and the Homies were stunned and stopped singing. Many people at the Dark World Emperor's table also had pale faces and shocked eyes.
Damn it! It's that man! Dufeld, the king of loan sharks, shivered and felt a chill shoot up from the soles of his feet to the sky. Fortunately, he was held back by Morgans just now and didn't go crazy.
Otherwise, wouldn’t he be the first to be unlucky?
…
After bigmom noticed Nuo Xia, his eyes narrowed and his pupils shrank slightly.
But the next moment, her expression returned to normal, she grinned and burst into a hearty laugh.
"Mama, mama! I really didn't expect that..."
Slowly stood up from the sofa, Big Mom was still smiling, but her tone was so cold that it was chilling, "I originally thought about going out to find you after a while, but you took the initiative to show up to your door.
I’m here, and I’m still alone..."
"Who gave you the courage?"
Bigmom stared at Nuo Xia solemnly and spoke almost word for word. A heart-stopping and terrifying aura began to condense on her body——
Buzz!
Her right hand suddenly clenched into a fist, and countless firelights and lightning arcs alternated around it, forming on her fist, and bursting out from time to time, the sound was extremely terrifying.
"Hmm?! Answer me, Romanov Nosha!"
Roaring sounds resounded throughout the hall, and fists wrapped in thunder, lightning and flames smashed down, setting off violent wind and waves along the way, seeming to swallow up and destroy everything around them.
Stacy was on this road, hurriedly retreating to the rear, and looked at Nuo Xia subconsciously, but the latter did not seem to be in a hurry to take action, and even looked at her meaningfully.
Stacey understood what that meant at a glance.
——Look, what you said before was nonsense, Charlotte Lingling, this crazy woman, obviously still only wants to kill me for revenge.
Draw the sword! Why are you still thinking about those few jokes at this time? Stacy was so impatient that she almost shouted to let him concentrate on taking action.
She watched helplessly as Bimmom's fist approached, and it wasn't until the fist was about to land on her face that Noxia finally turned her gaze back.
"Who gave you the courage?"
He did not draw his sword, but clenched his right fist as well, and a dazzling blue thunder flashed from his fist. He looked at the ferocious face close at hand and sneered, "This is something only a defeated general of yours can say.
Yes, maybe..."
"You should ask yourself that, Charlotte Lingling!"
With a stern look in his eyes, Nuo Xia punched him directly!
boom!
Under countless horrified looks, two disproportionate fists collided head-on!
Light and heat burst out violently, and the dazzling thunder and red-orange flames slightly distorted the surrounding void. The terrifying air waves set off instantly overwhelmed everyone's sight.
Even the hard stone slabs under everyone's feet suddenly appeared countless thick spider web-like cracks.
It didn't even hold on for a second before it completely exploded in the roar.
Stones flew and smoke filled the air, revealing the interior of the lower level of the cake castle.
"this……"
"He actually started taking action immediately after a disagreement."
"Oops, let's go!"
Looking at the huge crater, which was dozens of meters wide, many guests suddenly sweated from their temples and retreated to the outer hall in panic.
Some of the smarter ones grabbed their companions and fled down the stairs without looking back. They followed the spiral staircase and ran as fast as they could toward the outside of the Cake Castle.
As for the tea party?
What a waste of tea!
These people are very clear about the grudge between Big Mom and Bai Long. In this situation, it is obvious that an endless war will break out.
And this kind of battle between the world's top experts, if you stay nearby and get slightly affected, your own life may be involved!
