Chapter 909: Record-breaking Reward
Chapter 909: Record-breaking Reward
After picking up the bounty and placing it face up on the table, Olivia, with a blush on her face, stepped aside. Only then did Vic take a look at the bounty.
As expected, the bounty was on him, which could be guessed from Olivia's series of reactions and the attitude of the World Government towards him in the news.
However, he did not expect that his bounty would become so high, a full 60 billion berries, which is higher than that of Pirate King Roger. Is this the quality to beat up the Five Elder Stars?
Vic estimated that this was the highest bounty set since the establishment of the World Government, and this bounty was a bit special.
Other bounty orders basically say either life or death is fine, a few like Sanji who used his connections only want the living, and very few like Vic's which only want the dead. Even Rocks and Roger didn't get such treatment. This also shows Im and the Five Elders' firm attitude towards Vic, and reveals a lot of information!
In fact, after the incident where the Kingdom of Lulucia was wiped out by the Holy Mother's Flame, the Five Elders were not sure whether Vic was dead or not. Although they felt that under such a crisis, there was a high probability that Vic would be killed, but what if?
The only ones who knew that Vic was still alive were the top brass of the Revolutionary Army and Olivia. Vic had checked the memories of those in the Revolutionary Army and they would never betray him and the Revolutionary Army.
Olivia didn't even have time to get dressed, let alone betrayal, but there were indeed CP spies who came to Vic's base to gather intelligence.
Although he has been entangled with Olivia, it does not mean that his consciousness and spirit have fallen into confusion. He can fool the visitor with just a little illusion.
The Five Elders could not confirm whether Vic was alive or dead, so the news was never released. Finally, it was the CP agent who went undercover in the lower levels of the Revolutionary Army who saw Sabo appear. Only then did the Five Elders feel that Vic was likely to have survived!
After all, even Sabo, who is not as strong as Vic, survived, let alone Vic, who is even stronger and has natural abilities!
But Vic has never shown up, and the Five Elders are a little uncertain. In the end, they can only release the news and the reward first. No matter whether Vic is dead or alive, there will be no problem doing so.
This is also the reason why the news of Vic's rampage in Mary Joa was not released until today. If you, Vic, were still alive, then the amount on the bounty would be paid to anyone who has the ability to kill him. If he is already dead, then no one can get the bounty. It is just a matter of issuing a bounty.
"Tsk tsk! You really think highly of me! The bounty is even higher than that of Pirate King Roger. How many things have I done that have angered God and the people?"
Vic couldn't help but click his tongue when he saw the huge string of zeros on the bounty. The bounty for him alone was equal to the tax revenue of a small country for ten years!
Even Vic was a little jealous of his own bounty, and he was wondering whether he should use some means to collect his bounty.
But it was just a thought. How many people in this world could kill him? The possibility was too low. Maybe Yimu would come to check the authenticity in person. Even if he could confuse the Five Elders with illusions, he would never be able to confuse a powerful god like Yimu.
"Yes! What on earth did you do? This is a unique bounty in history. It's impossible that the reward is so high just for demolishing Pangu City, right?"
Olivia had read the newspaper and the reward notice a long time ago, but her agitated emotions had not yet calmed down.
Vic already had a bounty of over 40 billion. At this point, it might not increase by hundreds of millions even after a few years, but this time it increased by more than ten billion. What kind of thing did he have to do to make the world government hate him so much and want to kill him?
Olivia knew that the World Government liked to hide the truth about certain events, especially many major events, like O'Hara back then, so she knew that there must be something hidden, and it was a big secret!
"I'm not sure! This time, only 20 Celestial Dragons died, some slaves were freed, and some houses were demolished. I don't think anything big happened.
Oh! And I killed the Five Elders several times. These old guys are actually immortal. They are really a scourge for thousands of years!"
Vic didn't think he had done anything big. The biggest threat to the World Government should be knowing the existence of Im, the King of the World.
However, Vic had known about this for a long time, but this time it was made public in front of Im and the Five Elders. To Im's existence, the slaves who were released and the Celestial Dragons who died in this incident were nothing at all, and the lifeless buildings were even less important. None of them were as important as Im's exposure.
"You are a person with a lot on your mind. If you don't want to talk about it, then don't talk about it. I'm used to it. But I still hope you can be more careful. You are not afraid of anyone if you are aboveboard, but you can't guard against conspiracies and intrigues. You should be more careful. If you really can't, don't go out during this period of time!"
Everything that Vic said was reported in the newspapers earlier, only the beating of the Five Elders was hidden later on. That is the face of the World Government, and they cannot let a lowly pirate like Vic beat them easily!
But even with all these added in, in Olivia's mind, it was still not worth the 60 billion Baileys reward. She knew that Vic must have concealed something important, but there was nothing she could do if Vic didn't tell her.
She had seen from a long time ago that Vic was hiding something in his heart, something very important, because Vic had been rushing forward non-stop, as if there was some ferocious beast chasing him from behind, and if he stopped moving forward he would be swallowed by the monster behind him!
It's not like other pirates who eat, drink and have fun wherever they go! They are free!
Vic is used to keeping things to himself and carrying them alone. He has been like this for so many years. If he knew how to express his true feelings, he would have said it long ago. So Olivia doesn't expect that she can get Vic to speak with just a few words. He will naturally say it when he wants to!
"Oh my! You won't let me out? You're planning to squeeze me dry. You're really a woman who's almost reaching the age of sucking dirt!"
Vic joked that he had indeed concealed a lot of things, and it would not be useful to tell them now. The more ignorant others were, the safer they were.
And Vic didn't mean to dislike Olivia's age. Although she was nearly fifty years old, Vic had already kept her appearance and body at the peak of her life. She was like a fairy thousands of years old in a fantasy novel. Would you dislike her age?
"Sucking dirt, huh? I'll suck it up for you to see, so you can keep tormenting me these days, humph!"
"Don't come over here! You are no match for me. Have you forgotten your previous request for mercy?"
"That's because I let you go because you're distracted!"
"Don't pull or tug in broad daylight, hey! Don't take off my clothes..."
"Lie down, leave the rest to me!"
"Lightning God! Discharge me..."
“Ugh! Ah…”
