Chapter 638 Not giving face
After Katakuri brought Vic and the others into the hall of the castle, Vic could see clearly that besides Big Mom, several other well-known figures in the underground world were there, including Morgans, Stussy, the Shipping King, the King of Loan Sharks, as well as Big Mom's eldest son, eldest daughter and other children.
Vic just glanced at the others and then set his sights on the aunt. The aunt was 55 years old at this time, and her image was not much different from that of a dozen years later.
If there is any difference, it is that the aunties nowadays are not as fat as they were later, but they are already very old, and their dressing style is similar to that of later times, wearing a spotted pink one-piece pajamas, a captain's hat transformed from Napoleon, rings with gems of various colors on their fingers, and an expectant look on their faces as if they are waiting for something.
Vic's arrival also attracted the attention of everyone in the hall. After all, he was personally received by Katakuri, Big Mom's best son. It is conceivable how much Big Mom values the visitor.
Seeing Vic beside Katakuri, Big Mom and Stussy's eyes lit up. Vic's real appearance was much more handsome than those deliberately selected fierce photos in the newspapers. Few women could ignore it.
Big Mom has had ideas about Vic for a long time, so it's not surprising that she's staring at Vic. She still wants Vic to be the father of her child. Although Stussy is a clone, he also has human aesthetics and emotions.
When Morgans saw Vic, his eyes became evasive. He followed the orders of the World Government and fabricated a lot of fake news that was bad for Vic. Now he was a little afraid that Vic would retaliate against him.
As for the other underground kings, the look they showed towards Vic was much more normal. There was no grudge or interest relationship between them and Vic. Now that Vic had become a running dog of the World Government, they didn't want to provoke him at all. They were just a little surprised that Big Mom would invite such a person to the tea party.
"Mmmmm! Vic! You're finally here. The wedding will be held tomorrow, and we can't eat the wedding cake until tomorrow. Stay on Cake Island for one night. I will make sure they treat you well.
Hey! Mantis! Stop hiding, I saw you. I didn't expect that after not seeing you for so many years, you actually joined Vic's pirate group!"
When Vic and his group came closer, the aunt immediately greeted them warmly, which made Vic feel very strange. I almost beat your son and daughter to death. Is it appropriate to be so enthusiastic? However, he did not show anything wrong.
After greeting Vic, Big Mom quickly glanced at Vic's companions, and then saw Mantis hiding behind Katakuri among them. Mantis was so tall that no one could stop him.
In Vic's team, everyone else has normal human height, except Mantis, an animal-type ability user. His height has been affected by the power of his fruit and has become very tall. He is much taller than Katakuri and cannot be hidden at all.
Vic looked at Mantis in surprise. When he knew that Mantis had been on the Rocks ship, he guessed whether Mantis and Big Mom had had a relationship. Mantis felt a little uncomfortable at that time.
Now looking at Mantis's performance, he became even more certain that Mantis had definitely slept with the old lady before, but he didn't know whether they had a child.
When she was young, the aunt was still quite pretty. And seeing that she had given birth to so many children, you can tell that she was a very active woman. How many men can resist a beautiful and active woman who takes the initiative to ask for sex? And after asking for sex, she doesn't have to take responsibility, so there are even fewer men who can resist.
"Ahem! Lingling! Long time no see!"
Mantis awkwardly came out from behind Katakuri and greeted Big Mom, with an embarrassed expression on his face.
"Mantis! Now is not the time for you to reminisce about the past. Big mom! I am not here to attend your son's wedding. I have something to discuss with you."
Vic interrupted Mantis, saying that a fight might break out later, and reminiscing about the past now would affect morale. However, Vic did not take action immediately. Of course, it would be best to resolve the issue peacefully, and it would also sound better to say that they would use courtesy before force.
"Oh! You have something to discuss with me!"
The smile on the aunt's face faded, and her expression even became a little gloomy. How could she have a good expression when so many important people didn't give her face, even if she liked Vic very much!
She wanted Wick to be her man because of his excellent bloodline and the fact that he could give birth to stronger offspring with her to enhance the strength of the pirate group. She didn't really want to spend her whole life with Wick. Although Wick was handsome, he was too thin in her opinion and was not worth her efforts.
And it is highly unlikely that she would have any pleasant experience. She is a little giant with a height of nearly nine meters. How can she have a pleasant experience stirring a large jar with a toothpick? Just think about it, so Vic is just a tool she chose. She was furious at the loss of face.
"Wendy! Come over here."
"Big Mom! Do you see her? This is my partner, she has been following me since I was in the navy. Unfortunately, she is also the one who will marry your son tomorrow, the princess of the kingdom that you forced!
But Wendy told me that she didn't want to marry your son, she already had someone she liked, so she came to me for help. I promised to help her solve this problem.
So, Big Mom! Let your son find someone else to marry. I can compensate you with a devil fruit. Of course, I will also take Wendy's kingdom away. Do you agree to this exchange condition?"
Vic asked Wendy to come to his side, revealed her identity, and then a devil fruit appeared in his hand out of thin air. This was the animal-type devil fruit that had been stored in his dimensional ring. This was the greatest price he could pay in his heart.
It's not that Wendy is worthless, but Vic originally intended to use force, so that he wouldn't have to spend a penny. Being able to take out a devil fruit was already very sincere, which is what Vic called "be polite before using force".
Everyone in the hall looked at each other. The aunt's children and the invited guests were all very surprised. Morgans' eyes were rolling around with excitement hidden in them. This was his instinctive reaction to seeing big news.
Everyone else admired Vic very much. He dared to cause trouble at the wedding of the son of the new sea emperor. Isn't this a bold move? This slapped the aunt in the face. They all felt sorry for the aunt!
They also knew that there would be something exciting to watch next, so they were here. Their relationship with the aunt was not good enough to stand up for her. It was all about interests. Now that something exciting was going to happen, they had to watch it carefully!
