"Cut the nonsense! You killed my brother and ruined my properties in Barbanstan, and now you even dare to come and bother me… You probably don't know, but this place is under the Joker's influence. Your actions have already angered the Joker!" Delon immediately invoked the Joker's name.
Cold sweat poured down his back, and his hands, clutching the Eight-Headed Sword, trembled. Delon's heart was also uneasy. After all, the Joker's name was very well-known in the New World of the Grand Line, but people here might not be familiar with it. What if this guy from the Death God Pirates had never heard of the Joker? Then he would be in big trouble today!
"Joker? Are you talking about Donquixote Doflamingo, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the Joker?" Ye Jia asked, surprised.
He knew him, that's great! Delon was overjoyed, and his confidence grew.
"Good that you know! The Joker is now a big shot whom even the Marines dare not touch. His network spreads throughout the New World. Being his enemy is like being an enemy to the entire New World!" Delon exaggerated as much as he could. As long as he could intimidate Ye Jia and make him dare not think of killing, he would succeed.
"The Boin Family is the Joker's biggest enterprise in the East Blue, and it's under my Boin Family's supervision… You've offended the Joker and ruined his property. He won't let you off easily! If you know what's good for you, leave immediately, otherwise, when the Joker's people arrive, you're dead!" Delon shouted loudly.
"Joker… a place that hasn't even entered the Grand Line is actually connected to the Joker." Ye Jia smiled mysteriously. "What a coincidence! I originally wanted to find trouble with the Joker after entering the Grand Line, if I had the chance… Well, since I've bumped into him, I won't hold back."
How could Ye Jia not know about the Joker? A famous villain from One Piece, who committed numerous atrocities, used extremely cruel methods, and had a very bizarre way of doing things. His influence spread everywhere. After entering the New World, it could be said that it was the Joker's domain; his presence was almost everywhere.
The Joker not only possessed formidable strength but also had very aggressive money-making methods, continuously trading in artificial Devil Fruits with Kaido, which harmed many people. Especially in Dressrosa, to control the entire country, he did not hesitate to kill opponents or turn them into toys, and eventually created the Birdcage, intending to destroy the entire country!
How could Ye Jia, as the Death God who purifies evil, easily let go of such a cruel and ruthless character who regarded human lives as mere weeds? He thought he would only cross paths with Doflamingo after entering the New World, but unexpectedly, he was already intertwined with him even before entering the Grand Line.
"You… you… what do you mean by that?" Delon asked, his eyes trembling, incredibly nervous, upon hearing Ye Jia's words.
"The meaning is very clear. Wherever I am, the Joker must die!" Ye Jia's eyes shot out a sharp light. "You are the Joker's man, and this is the Joker's property, so I'll kill you and destroy this place along with it!"
Light-speed kick! Almost as soon as Ye Jia's words fell, his leg had already risen.
Bang! Delon's body, radiating a yellow light, shot out like a cannonball, directly piercing through the wall and slamming fiercely into a building within the castle! It consecutively smashed through several buildings in the castle, emitting a huge explosion. The buildings were destroyed and collapsed on the spot, burying Delon's corpse underneath.
The executives, after taking a single kick from Ye Jia, immediately lost consciousness on the spot, unable to put up even the slightest fight. Delon was even worse than the executives; he had no strength whatsoever. What could he use to resist Ye Jia's light-speed kick?
"How can treasures like the Eight-Headed Sword be defiled by someone like you?" With one blow, Delon was taken down. However, as he delivered that kick, Ye Jia conveniently snatched the Eight-Headed Sword.
At this moment, Qiuli arrived slowly. "I just saw the buildings outside collapsing, it must have been you…" Qiuli had just entered the room and was speaking when her gaze suddenly narrowed, spotting the Eight-Headed Sword in Ye Jia's hand.
"This is… the Eight-Headed Sword!" Qiuli's eyes burned with intense joy.
The Eight-Headed Sword, to ordinary people, could at most be considered a valuable collectible, equated with a substantial sum of money. However, for Qiuli, the Eight-Headed Sword was not only a superb sword but also a symbol of faith!
The previous wielder of the Eight-Headed Sword used it to sever the heads of eight prominent figures, purging evil and shaking the world. Its long-lasting influence saved countless lives. This was the true meaning of the Eight-Headed Sword. It represented not only strength but also the faith that destroys evil!
"Your sword, catch it firmly!" Ye Jia directly threw the Eight-Headed Sword to Qiuli.
Qiuli, upon receiving the Eight-Headed Sword, couldn't put it down. She was as excited as a child receiving a new toy. She gently stroked the blade with her finger, then flicked it, and a pleasant sword hum resonated.
"This sword is yours from now on. If you want anything else, just tell me!" Ye Jia said grandly, patting his chest.
"Thank you!" Qiuli was genuinely grateful to Ye Jia. If it weren't for Ye Jia, with his strength, he wouldn't even be able to defeat Gordon Abner, let alone the other executives. Wanting to seize the Eight-Headed Sword? That would be a pipe dream. But because of Ye Jia's appearance, all of this became possible.
"As a captain, it's my duty to help my companions fulfill their wishes. You go play with your sword; I need to make a fortune!" Ye Jia chuckled. He hadn't forgotten his ultimate goal for coming to Barbanstan this time. Purging Delon and seizing the Eight-Headed Sword were merely incidental; the true purpose was to get the Boin family's gold and treasures!
"It's time for these ill-gotten gains to change hands!" Ye Jia found Delon's safe. Without another word, he fired a laser from his finger.
"Land deeds, property deeds… why are they all just real estate documents?" Inside the safe, besides numerous property deeds from Barbanstan, there was nothing else. Delon's gold and treasures weren't here. No need to ask, they must be in the underground vault!
"Qiuli, it's a bit of trouble, but help me bring Bartel over." Ye Jia instructed.
"Alright!" Qiuli nodded, turned, and left. Approximately ten minutes later, Qiuli returned, directly dropping Bartel off her shoulder.
"Splash!" Ye Jia didn't know where he got a bucket of water from, and directly splashed it on Bartel. Bartel instantly became somewhat conscious.
Ye Jia walked forward, his eyes sharp. "You're an executive of the Boin family, Delon's most trusted subordinate. Speak, where is Delon's treasure room?!"
