Chapter 96 Three Conditions for Roger

Lex looked at Roger's pirate group outside the different dimension. The rest of the people were sitting scattered around the tavern. Rayleigh and Jabba were drinking together, and they seemed to be using rock-paper-scissors to decide who would pay for the drinks.

The pirate with a ponytail is named Spencer, and he is bragging and chatting with another member of Roger's pirate group.

"Hahaha! Sanbel, you didn't know that I am actually the core of our pirate group!"

As a murloc, the honest Sambel just shook his head sullenly to express his protest. He was the only murloc in the group and was the core.

Roger was a conspicuous person and continued to tell the story loudly after he had modified it.

"Ahahahaha~! After telling the story of 'Yellow Dog', I'll tell you a story about a peerless beautiful pirate, okay?"

When the pirates heard that she was an extremely beautiful woman, they all loved it.

So they started to make a fuss:

"Hahahaha! Tell me quickly!"

"Ohh! Tell me about the most beautiful woman ever!"

Even the pirate minions were attracted over there.

Roger smiled mysteriously and dropped a bombshell:

"Ahahaha! Even though she's a stunning beauty, she has many, many children!"

“Eh~!??”

"Eh~?"

“Hmm!~?”

Everyone was dumbfounded.

“Ahahaha, listen to me slowly—Eh!!!? Why are you two here?!!!”

Roger immediately took a breath of cold air, and stared blankly at Lex and the Red Earl who appeared out of nowhere with his eyes wide open like an idiot.

The attention of the rest of Roger's pirate group was also drawn by Roger's startled breathing. They looked at the two of them and suddenly became uneasy.

Lex smiled meaningfully at Roger and took the initiative to sit next to Roger. The Red Earl chose a quieter place, ordered a glass of red wine, and drank it alone.

Roger didn't know when Lex came, but he had just maliciously consumed a Golden Lion, and he didn't know if Lex heard it.

If you hear it, you're doomed.

Lex did not disappoint Roger. He picked up a glass of cheap rum, looked at Roger with a smile and said:

"Hmm, I don't want to hear any stories about peerless beauties. I'm very interested in the story about the 'yellow-haired second-rate swordsman' just now. I wonder if I can listen to it again?"

Roger immediately raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, smiling awkwardly:

"Hahaha, well, I'd better talk about peerless beauties. You see everyone likes to hear that."

Lex chuckled, glanced at Roger, and didn't answer.

But this attitude made Roger feel even more embarrassed. He stood in front of his parents like a child who had done something wrong.

Finally, the story about the peerless beauty is over.

But everyone felt that they had not yet heard enough and called on Roger to tell another story.

If Lex wasn't there, Roger would have lectured for three days and three nights.

But Lex was sitting beside him with a smile on his face, giving Roger a gentle smile from time to time.

This made Roger feel very uneasy. He wished he had a few more mouths so he could speak immediately and run away.

Therefore, Roger waved his hand in confusion:

"Ahahaha! No no, good stories are good because they are rare. I'll tell you next time I come here."

Seeing this, the pirate minions had no choice but to disperse. No blind pirate who thought he was the best in the world came to shout, so there was no bloody dispute and everyone gradually dispersed.

At this moment, there were only Lex and Roger left at Roger's table.

The other members of Roger's pirate group would occasionally steal glances at Lex and the Red Earl sitting in the corner.

After all, these two people have not yet explained their purpose.

Now is a sensitive period for Rex to end the war. The world is like a powder keg that was detonated by Rex. No one can tell what purpose the man who detonated the powder keg had in visiting their pirate group.

Roger didn't care at all and just smiled awkwardly at Lex;

"Ahahaha! Well, Lex, I'll buy you a drink!"

"Uh-huh. Do you have the money?"

Lex glanced at Roger and said something that hit Roger straight in the heart.

"Ahahaha~ If you don't have money, my crew has it. What do you think—"

Before Roger finished speaking, everyone's heads turned 180 degrees and looked away, pretending that they didn't know Roger at all.

Roger felt very ashamed. As a captain, he had ended up in such a state. Only the prince in later generations could be compared to him.

So, Roger could only look at Buggy and Shanks who were drinking juice on the side.

"Bucky, can you lend me 500 Baileys first? I will definitely pay you back later."

But Bucky shook his head firmly:

"The Captain can't even pay it back! I won't use my pocket money for something so stupid!"

Roger could only look at Shanks standing beside him.

But Shanks was one step faster and spoke first:

"Don't look at me, I don't have any money!"

Roger immediately looked frustrated.

"Hey, Lex, I'll treat you to this drink first, but I'll owe you the money first. I'll pay you back next time!"

Lex: "...If you calculate it this way, you owe me more than 400 million Baileys for wine last time alone, and that's not counting the time before that."

Roger patted Lex on the shoulder:

"Ahaha! We should still look towards the future and let the past be the past!"

As soon as these words came out.

Even the deputy captain, Silverbaz Rayleigh, and the third-in-command, Spark Jabba, covered their faces, feeling extremely ashamed.

The members of Roger's pirate group lowered their heads, fearing that they would have anything to do with this captain.

Lex smiled softly.

"I came to see you this time for two things."

When Roger heard that something happened, he waved his hand.

"Ahahaha! No matter what it is, I agree, as long as you don't mention the wine money again."

"Uh-huh, first thing, about the new world!"

After a pause, Lex continued:

"I'm sure you all know what happened not long ago. I conquered a new world."

Hearing these words, the already solemn looks of the Roger Pirates became even more solemn.

They will never forget that the handsome blond young man in front of them is the king of the new world!

An extremely ruthless man who dared to attack Marijoa head-on and killed the deputy leader of the Knights of God and the supreme commander of CP in the Celestial Dragons' base camp!

"So, in the New World, in name, the government no longer has the final say. As for the right to speak, I don't care much about such empty things, but I have some thoughts about your pirate group."

"Let's talk about it in detail."

Roger's expression became serious and his eyes became sharper.

"First, the Roger Pirates can freely sail in any waters of the New World. I will inform my uncle of this."

Roger was not at all pleased by this seeming request for help.

He knew that it was almost impossible to take advantage of someone like Lex.

Sure enough, Lex continued:

"Second, the Roger Pirates must not infringe upon the forces under my command. Of course, if they take the initiative to provoke me, that's another matter. Of course, the Flying Pirates, Whitebeard Pirates, Wind Pirates, Phantom Sword Pirates, including Wang Zhi Silver Axe Big Mom are not under my command. I only command those people in the underground world and some countries."

"I don't want to hear about these forces conflicting with the Roger Pirates."

Rayleigh responded directly on behalf of Roger.

"That's totally fine! We pirates aren't the type to cause trouble."

Lex nodded and continued:

"Ha, thirdly, I have chosen a piece of your sea area. It's not a big place, just an archipelago, but I want to plant the flag of Roger's Pirates here, is that okay?"

No one in Roger's pirate group paid attention to the first two points, but after hearing the third point, everyone stared at Lex deeply.

Roger's face also looked a little gloomy.
