"That was really enjoyable! A good haul, Qiuli, time to go!" Running after showing off has always been Ye Jia's motto. Ye Jia chose the Red Lady House precisely to cause a huge ruckus, to destroy an important economic asset of the Buin family, and to annoy Draylon.

Anyway, he wasn't in a hurry to leave, so he could slowly play with Draylon. After he had pretty much destroyed the Buin family, he would then eliminate Draylon in one fell swoop, completely getting rid of this cancerous growth. Killing two Buin family executives in one night, Ye Jia was particularly satisfied with tonight's results.

"Mr. Ye!" Seeing Ye Jia and Qiuli about to leave, Si Qingluo quickly spoke up.

"Si Qingluo? Don't worry, you're free now. The world is vast, go wherever you please. No one will trouble you anymore!" Ye Jia smiled, "Just a moment." His figure flashed and disappeared. About a minute later, Ye Jia reappeared, holding several large bags of gold coins.

"Twenty million Berry, and from the Red Lady House, at least fifty million Berry. All of this is for you!" Tens of millions of Berry were nothing to Ye Jia. Si Qingluo was a pitiful person, and she was also beautiful... Of course, the key was that she was beautiful.

Ye Jia was unwilling to see her wander alone, so he simply gave her all these "worldly possessions." Ye Jia wasn't worried about running out of money. With such a large Buin family here, would he ever lack money?

"Money... I don't want it." Si Qingluo shook her head. She looked at Ye Jia eagerly, "Mr. Ye, I beg you... can you take me with you? I want to join your pirate crew!" Si Qingluo made this decision with great courage.

A defenseless, beautiful woman, to ask to actively join a pirate crew, a place full of rough men, the dangers involved were imaginable! But Si Qingluo chose to trust Ye Jia's character, especially since Ye Jia still cared about her and gave her such a large sum of money.

Si Qingluo was filled with gratitude and trust towards Ye Jia. So she made this decision: to join Ye Jia's pirate crew. And her goal was only one... to follow Ye Jia, no matter where they went!

"Join my pirate crew?" Ye Jia was stunned that Si Qingluo's request would be this. In this era, which commoner wouldn't be terrified and trembling at the words "pirate"? They'd run before they could even hide, yet Si Qingluo was actively asking to join.

"Si Qingluo, our Grim Reaper Pirate Crew never accepts useless..." Before Ye Jia could speak, Qiuli interrupted with a stern voice. The Grim Reaper does not recruit pirates on a large scale; only the strong! Ye Jia had made this clear to him the day he boarded the ship. Qiuli had always hoped that one day he would stand shoulder to shoulder with a group of strong individuals, conquering the seas and becoming famous worldwide!

Si Qingluo... utterly powerless. Although this woman was beautiful, her strength was too weak. She had no combat ability whatsoever. If she engaged the enemy, she would only be a hindrance. Qiuli, without a second thought, immediately prepared to refuse.

"Wait!" Before Qiuli could finish, Ye Jia quickly raised his hand to interrupt. "Si Qingluo, let me ask you, how's your cooking?" Qiuli's look of doubt instantly vanished when he heard this. He also listened intently for Si Qingluo's reply.

"Cooking?" Si Qingluo nodded. "Mom never specifically made me learn about that... but my sisters all say my cooking is delicious!" "Then it's no problem!" Ye Jia laughed heartily, immediately extending his hand. "Ms. Si Qingluo, welcome to my Grim Reaper Pirate Crew! From now on, you are a member of my Grim Reaper Pirate Crew!" Si Qingluo was stunned. So, to be a pirate now, the first test was cooking? This Grim Reaper Pirate Crew... so unique!

Although Ye Jia made this decision somewhat hastily, Qiuli had no dissatisfaction whatsoever. Compared to facing Gayimni's terrifying dark cuisine every day, nothing else mattered! "It's decided then!" "This place is not good to stay long, we should leave! Go! To the hotel first!" Ye Jia said, embracing Si Qingluo, and a yellow light flared, quickly leaving the scene. Qiuli followed closely, heading towards the hotel.

That night, the incident at the Red Lady House caused a sensation throughout Babastain! The Red Lady House had several branches in Babastain, but the one that was smashed was precisely the one that generated the most economic revenue! Not only that, but the madam in charge, the guards, and others were all killed on the spot.

The Red Lady House was even destroyed from the first floor to the top floor! What was even more terrifying and shocking was that... two executives of the Buin family, Gordon Abner and Fitzwilliam, were killed on the spot! The Buin family had a total of only five executives, each with extraordinary skills and immense strength. Yet, in one night, two had died! Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

...

Babastain, inside the Buin family mansion.

"What did you say?!" Draylon was woken up in the middle of the night. Upon hearing the news, his eyes widened, and he grabbed the intelligence officer's collar. "What kind of joke are you playing with me?! Gordon Abner and Fitzwilliam are not useless cowards who eat for nothing.

How could they both die all at once!" "Clan Leader, please calm your anger. According to eyewitnesses that night, the one who killed the two executive lords, and the Red Lady House manager and guards, and destroyed the Red Lady House, was an outside guest." The intelligence officer said calmly.

"An outside guest?" Draylon's eyes twitched. His face instantly sank. He released his grip on the intelligence officer's hand. Draylon was on the verge of exploding with rage. He had already guessed who was behind this incident—the Grim Reaper Pirate Crew! The guys who killed his younger brother and then brazenly declared they would eliminate him too!

"These bastards! How dare they act so wildly in my territory!" Draylon was furious. These Grim Reaper Pirate Crew guys killed his younger brother first, and now they came to Babastain to destroy his Red Lady House and kill his family's elite executives...

"Someone!" "Go wake up Burris, Oswald, and Barrett from their beds! Also, relay my order to immediately blockade the city entrances of Babastain and dispatch soldiers for a carpet search!" "Even if you have to dig three feet deep, you must dig out these bastards for me!"

Draylon roared. "Yes!" The soldier acknowledged the order and withdrew. "I will personally rip off the heads of these bastards and hang them at the entrance of the Buin family mansion! Dare to provoke my Buin family, and I will make sure they have no burial ground!" Draylon's eyes were bloodshot.
