When Claudius and his party were meeting with King Neptune in Ryugu Castle, the mermaid slaves on the Prometheus had already been handed over.

Butler Nia just happened to arrive outside the Ryugu Castle at this time, and stood with the blue fat man Jinbei. The two seemed to be talking to each other, and Claudius happened to see this scene when he came out.

After seeing Claudius, Butler Nia quickly stepped forward and reported the situation over there to Claudius. After Claudius knew that the handover had been completed, he didn’t care about anything else. The rest was all Fishman Island’s own business.

Following Butler Nia to the Coral Hill again, Claudius looked at the island in the deep sea with admiration along the way.

Although some people look down on the miserable state of Fishman Island over the past eight hundred years, it must be said that Fishman Island is indeed a beautiful place, like a dream and fairyland.

“What a great place…” Laodius murmured with some emotion.

“Then, Your Highness, should we set up some property on Fishman Island? Anyway, it’s not far from Marijoa, and it’s only a day’s voyage there and back. If Your Highness likes, we can come here often?” Butler Nia asked softly after hearing Claudius’s sigh.

Claudius smiled and said, “What kind of property do you want to buy? Real estate? A manor?”

Nia, the housekeeper, said as if it was a matter of course, “Well, I heard that there is a place called Yufuli Villa. It seems to be the most upscale residential area on Fishman Island. There are many nice manors there. Although the prices are a bit expensive, it’s nothing for us.”

Housekeeper Nia said this with confidence, as if he was rich and powerful, and buying a villa seemed like a piece of cake for him.

But it is indeed like this. A few years ago, Claudius was still a little embarrassed, and the money he had was all saved by himself when he was a child. But later, as his power grew and the CPX organization continued to develop, he also became rich. For example, he had to collect a large amount of offerings from the profiteer Umit every year, the grants from the World Government, the huge amount of heavenly gold owned by the upper-level Celestial Dragons, the huge source of funds for Happy Street, and the ill-gotten gains of the two major pirate organizations, Crocodile and Doflamingo… Anyway, Claudius had no pressure at all on such small matters as buying a house.

Listening to what Nia said, Claudius touched his chin, then looked at Nia with some amusement and asked, “Nia, are you moved by what Kelly and Lenny said? Do you want to buy a manor here?”

Nia, the housekeeper, blushed a little when she heard this, and then said a little embarrassedly: “Lenny and Kelly are leaving, but…”

“But you are also very good friends with them, right? Sometimes I don’t take you with me when I go out, because someone needs to look after the house, but this care is not all-weather. Occasionally… I want to come to the nearby Fishman Island to play and chat with Kelly and Lenny, so I need a place to stay on Fishman Island, right?” Claudius asked with a smile.

Unexpectedly, His Highness could see through her little thoughts at a glance. Housekeeper Nia rarely responded to Claudius’ words, and lowered her head shyly.

Claudius smiled when he saw this. He didn’t embarrass Nia because she was just teasing him. Then he said without thinking, “Nia, you are the person I trust the most and are closest to, so you don’t have to report this to me. In the future, you can buy whatever you want or do. Claudius’ family has plenty of Bailey. If you like it, let’s buy all of Yufuli Villa…”

Nia, the housekeeper, was stunned for a moment, then waved her hands and shook her head and said, “No need to spend so much, Your Highness. If possible, I would be satisfied with just a small manor…”

“If one manor is enough, then we should at least buy a big manor, the best manor on the island. Well… no, the best is not necessarily the most suitable. You can go and pick and choose, and buy whatever you like. Just like you said, if you and I are interested in this island, we need a place to stay.” Claudius said with a smile.

Butler Nia heard the trust and doting in Claudius’ words, so she nodded with satisfaction and said, “Well, I understand, Your Highness.”

Stussy, who was following Claudius, smiled after hearing these words. She and Butler Nia were like sisters, so she didn’t care much. However, General Sengoku on the other side looked at Claudius with some envy. “Oh, these Celestial Dragons are really rich. If I want to buy the best manor on this island, I’m afraid I’ll have to spend two or three years’ salary… and it may not even be enough.”

But it doesn’t matter, I’m fine, the navy will be rich soon! When the time comes, our navy will raise funds to build houses or something, and as a navy admiral, I can build a manor… It’s not too much, right?

If Claudius knew what General Zhan Guo was thinking, he would probably shake his head and sigh, “How corrupt! Who would have thought that you, Zhan Guo, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, would end up being such a person?”

But these are just jokes. The treatment of the senior admirals of the navy is still very good. Sengoku said that he was poor, that’s because compared with Claudius, the Celestial Dragon, he is actually very rich. It can even be said that he basically has nothing to spend money on. All expenses are borne by the World Government.

Hearing that Lenny and Kelly had gone to look for their former sisters at Coral Hill, Claudius also followed Butler Nia to Coral Hill.

When we met Lenny and Kelly, they were walking around with a mermaid who looked much younger than them. However, this mermaid was much bigger than them. She was also a rare shark mermaid?

“Your Highness~~~” When Lenny saw Claudius, he waved in surprise, and then ran over with Kelly and the little shark girl.

“You are laughing so happily, are you back home?” Claudius asked with a smile.

After chatting for a while, Kelly introduced the little shark girl to Claudius.

“Your Highness, this is the daughter of our former sisters, and her mother… Never mind, let’s not talk about this. Her name is Charlie, and she is only fifteen years old. Lenny and I are going to take care of her together, is that okay?” Kelly looked at Claudius and asked.

Claudius was stunned for a moment. The shark mermaid, also known as Xia Li, looked very familiar…

But he quickly said with a smile: “You don’t need to ask me about this kind of thing. You are free already, aren’t you?”

Listening to Claudius’ words, Lenny touched his arm near his shoulder, where there was a mark of a flying dragon’s hoof, and in the center of the mark was a tattoo of the Don Quixote family’s crest, which was exactly Claudius’s emblem.

Originally, when Doflamingo gave them to him, they were already tattooed with the Hoof of the Flying Dragon. Later, as Claudius’ relationship with them got better and better, he tattooed them with the Don Quixote family crest.

“Although we are free, this emblem represents that we will always belong to His Highness.” Lenny said with a smile.

“You are quite conscious, little girl.” Claudius stroked his chin and spoke in a pretentious manner.

“If we count age, we are three or two years older than you, Your Highness. We are not little girls.” Kelly also chattered.

After chatting for a while, Lenny suddenly said, “By the way, Your Highness, Xia Li has a very powerful ability to predict the future. Why don’t you let her show you her skills?”
