Chapter 85 Pepe, New Life (Ch 85)

Three days later, Katakuri and his crew arrived at Twilight City with the ransom.
Looking at the bustling streets, several people felt complicated. They thought that with their contributions, this place would become more prosperous.
Adam sent someone to count the ransom, and after confirming that it was correct, he nodded to Alan.
Alan immediately ordered the release of Big Mom’s ministers, and then led everyone to the coast where Big Mom was imprisoned.
The old lady had suffered from bulimia several times in the past few days because she had not eaten. However, she was tied with seastone chains and was placed in the sea, so she could not cause any waves.
After being released by Allen, he looked at him with resentment.
“Boy, I admit defeat this time. I didn’t expect you to grow to this point, but remember, my money is not so easy to take. Just wait for me.”
Alan shrugged and said indifferently.
“It’s up to you. Next time it’ll be 20 billion. Remember to prepare the money at home before you go to the Twilight City Sea to act wild. Otherwise, you won’t have the chance to speak harshly again.”
Alan’s words made the aunt’s fat tremble with anger.
“Boy, don’t be so arrogant. I will definitely get back at you next time. Let’s go.”
What the aunt wants to do most now is to fill her stomach with dessert. After making some harsh words, she prepares to board the ship with her children.
Looking at Big Mom and others boarding the ship, Allen shouted:
“Sister Lingling, eat less sweets. I’m sick of your fat. Think about how good you looked in Rocks before. Just think of it as helping you lose weight this time.”
A terrifying domineering aura suddenly floated over the sea, and a sound of gnashing teeth was heard.
“Alan, kid, just wait for me.”
Alan laughed and prepared to return to the city with everyone.
“Captain Allen, is it really okay to provoke me like this? Aren’t you afraid that they will come back and kill you again?”
Adam was obviously still very afraid of Big Mom’s strength, and the last move in the fight with Allen made him feel nervous.
Allen smiled nonchalantly and said, “Wouldn’t it be better to let her deliver the money?”
He doesn’t care about provoking Big Mom at all. Those defeated by him will only get further away from him. But Alan is getting stronger every day.
Everyone was very happy after receiving the ransom. As I said before, there are very few people who don’t like money.
Allen, who didn’t care much about money before, struggled for money several times after establishing the country, and he also understood the importance of money.
………
A day later, Hubert returned to Twilight City with the caravan.
There was a pirate ship following behind them, and after arriving at the port, nearly 50 people got off.
When Hubert saw Allen and others waiting for him at the port, he brought these pirates to Allen.
“Captain, this is Pepe from the North Sea, he’s good at physical training.”
Allen raised his eyebrows after hearing Hubert’s words. Good at physical training? It seems that he has received education.
Behind him, a burly man with short pink hair and nearly three meters tall came up to Allen with an excited look on his face.
“Captain Allen, I am glad to see you at last. I have heard of your name so well!”
“Oh? Where have you heard of me?”
Alan was puzzled as to how the other party had heard of him. He knew that in the news of the World Government, he had always been a villain.
“My father used to be the finance minister of a kingdom not far from the Kingdom of Modia, so I know some inside information that ordinary people don’t know. Lord Allen destroyed the Demon Slayer Order for the sake of Modia!”
Allen smiled softly upon hearing this. “Indeed, then why did your country fall?”
Pepe lowered his head, as if recalling some bad memories.
“Unfortunately, my country was not a member of the World Government, and was later destroyed by the increasing number of pirates.”
After hearing this, Alan looked at Adam. Adam would often pay attention to the recent situation in Modia. He must know the situation in the neighboring countries and could judge the truth of this statement.
Adam nodded to Alan, indicating that it was true.
Alan looked at him again. “Then why do you want to join us?”
When Pepe said this, little stars suddenly appeared in his eyes.
“Because it was so cool that Lord Eren dared to face the World Government’s Demon Slayer Order alone, so when we heard that Lord Eren had established a country in the New World, we came directly to the Grand Line.”
Alan looked at him with amusement, it seemed that he also had a little fan.
“Oh? Just because you think those actions are cool?”
Pepe scratched his head embarrassedly.
“Of course, it’s also for people like us to have a place to stay. It would be even better if it can help the development of Twilight City.”
After Alan pondered for a moment, he looked at his companions and seeing that they had no objection, he nodded and agreed to Pepe’s joining.
“Okay, then you will be my affiliated pirate group from now on, responsible for the security of the surrounding waters and the escort of the merchant caravans, how about that?”
“Long live!”
Pepe and the members around him cheered. They often heard Pepe talk about Alan’s deeds on the boat, so they all admired Alan very much.
Now hearing that they could join the coveted Twilight City, they immediately cheered.
After greeting these people and holding a welcome banquet, the Pepe Pirates happily began patrolling and escorting.
After receiving the 20 billion ransom from the Big Mom Pirates, Twilight City developed even faster. It also developed an uninhabited island called Las Vegas and built many entertainment facilities on it, such as amusement parks, casinos, large shopping streets and the like.
We are preparing to develop Las Vegas into a tourist destination to attract tourists from all over the world.
After a great battle with Big Mom’s pirate group and the defeat of Golden Lion in this year, the Twilight Pirates became famous overnight. No one dared to attack them easily anymore. Twilight City spent the year 1491 of the Sea Circle Calendar in development.
In the year 1492 of the Haiyuan calendar, O’Hara in the West Sea.
This is an island with many scholars, and it is also the hometown of a group of scholars that Allen met before.
A lush giant tree stands in the center of the island. This is a holy place in the hearts of scholars, the Tree of Omniscience.
Scholars come in and out here from time to time.
An intellectual woman with long white hair was flipping through a book here. She was Nicole Olbia.
After a full year of sailing, the scholars also returned to O’Hara.
Olbia read a book, touching her bulging belly from time to time, with a loving look in her eyes.
“Little guy, I wonder if your father would be surprised to know you exist.”
An old man with fan-blade hairstyle looked at Olbia helplessly.
“Olbija, who is the father of this child? How come you become a mother just by going out to sea?”
Olbia still stroked her belly and smiled at the old man. She said nothing, but her thoughts drifted away.
Alan, who was far away in the New World, sneezed.
“Ah Qiu! Who is thinking about me?”
