Chapter 208: Frenzy Pirates Second-Ever Bounties!

"Alright, you ugly monkey, what was so important that you had to stuff us all in this room?" Asked Freyja in slight annoyance as she folded her arms beneath her massive breasts and eyed Diddy, who was sitting on a throne he had ripped out from the ground in the royal palace at the center of the city.

"Hoho, I'm genuinely curious, Freyja. Do you think it's possible for you to speak to Captain nicely, or is that impossible?" Asked Sebas curiously as he rubbed his bearded chin while sitting at the table opposite Freyja, who furrowed her brows and glanced at him before looking at Diddy with a thoughtful expression.

"Your attempts at seducing him don't count since they're for ulterior motives." Added Mael lightly while leaning back in his chair as he glanced at Freyja, who was to his left, causing her to click her tongue before shaking her head.

"Tsk, no. I think I'd rather be boiled alive again than ever genuinely be nice to Diddy." Declared Freyja with an ugly expression as she subtly shivered before shaking her head and looking at Mael with a seductive smile.

"However, if it's you, Mael, I don't mind being nice." Added Freyja with a small smile as she affectionately grabbed Mael's hand while trailing her finger across his large biceps, only for smoke to suddenly emit from their collapsed hands, causing her to wince in pain and quickly retract her hand.

"Hmph, how many times must I teach this lesson, Freya?" Asked Mael with a grunt of annoyance as he clenched his fist while looking down at Freyja, who was shaking her burning hand.

"Heh, the harder you push, the more I want you." Said Freyja with a large, lustful grin as she licked her lips and eyed Mael, who squinted his eyes while wisps of plasma emitted from from his body.

"Haa, enough, you two; I swear, if it weren't for me, this crew wouldn't have lasted more than a week." Remarked Sebas with a sigh as she raised his hands, causing Freyja and Mael to be engulfed in his telekinesis, immobilizing them while Scar, who sat beside him, nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, you're practically the glue that holds them all together." Said Scar with a nod, only for him to suddenly be immobilized as well, while Sebas turned and looked at him.

"You're part of the problem as well, Scar; you and Freyja's sex escapades cause quite a bit of problems for your brother and sister." Stated Sebas with a blank expression as he rested his hand on Scar's shoulder before looking at Trenza and Grand, who both coughed and awkwardly looked away.

"A-At least I clean up my mess, unlike Grand, Father. He always leaves a sticky mess in his room; I even stepped in it by accident when I went in his room to get something." Remarked Trenza with a faint blush as she gestured to Grand while glancing at him in disgust, causing him to groan.

"Ugh, it's not my fault; if Janet were with us, this wouldn't be a problem in the first place." Said Grand defensively as he glared at Trenza, who scoffed before folding her arms.

"You speak as if Janet is your woman; how do you even know if she'll help you? She might not even be interested in you." Asked Trenza in a snarky tone while Grand clenched his fist before pumping it into the air.

"Have faith, Trenza; besides, I can't be the only one among us three without a lover; that would be embarrassing, especially since I'm the most attractive." Stated Grand with a smile before shaking his head and glancing back at Trenza; she tilted her head in confusion while Scar rolled his eyes.

"Eh, I don't know how you don't know this, but I don't have a lover; after all, the markswoman of the Frenzy Pirates doesn't need a man in her life." Remarked Trenza as she gave Grand a confused look, only to shake her head and confidently smirk while flipping her thick, single-braid hair behind her back.

"Heh, as if a man is going to be interested in your body." Muttered Scar softly, his words causing Trenza's expression to crack as she turned and glared at him while he smirked.

"Hmm, you don't have a lover Trenza? I thought you and Captain were in a relationship; after all, you and he have been spending a lot of time together lately." Said Grand in surprise and confusion as he rubbed his head before looking at Trenza, who froze before faintly blushing while shaking her head.

"N-No, we're not in a relationship, Grand; besides, Captain isn't even human." Said Trenza as she regained her composure and looked at Grand while sneakily taking glances at Diddy, who was too busy looking at a newspaper to bother with them.

"Oh, I didn't know, though you're not human either, Trenza." Replied Grand with a nod before skeptically looking at Trenza's three eyes, who groaned before nodding.

"I-I suppose you're not wrong." Muttered Trenza softly as she hung her head down, only for everyone to suddenly feel a weak electric current circulate through their body, causing them to twitch before gazing at Diddy.

"Shut up! It's time for why I had called a meeting!" Stated Diddy with an eager grin as he looked at his six crew mates while they all gave him an annoyed look.

"Tsk, next time, just open your mouth, no need to fucking shock me." Said Freyja in slight anger as she glared at Diddy, who promptly ignored her before balling up the newspaper and turning it into ashes using his lightning.

Ignoring whatever the hell Freyja had said, probably her complaining about something, I reached into my pocket and grabbed the seven bounties before setting them upside down on the table, and with Sebas being the smartest one here, he was the first to realize what they were.

"Captain, are those possibly our bounties?" Asked Sebas in uncertainty as he looked at the spread-out papers before reaching forward and grabbing the closet one, only for Diddy to aggressively swat his hand away.

"Hehe, yes, they are; when I raided the small marine outpost, I found them nailed to a bulletin board. So, who the hell is ready to see their new and improved bounties?" Remarked Diddy with a grin as he looked at Sebas, who gently rubbed his hand, soothing the pain, before looking at the Frenzy pirates.

"Tsk, they better have changed the image of me on my new bounty. Hoho, I'm actually quite excited. I don't really care, but sure. Heh, finally. Hahaha, I got a bounty! Yes, yes, yes!" Replied Freyja, Sebas, Mael, Scar, Grand, and Trenza, respectively, as they all intently focused on Diddy, who grinned before grabbing the leftmost paper.

Since I'd already seen the bounties, I started with the lowest one, and unsurprisingly, it belonged to our marksman.

"Trenza 'Daiquiri' Visage. 60,000,000 Beri's!" Stated Diddy as he slammed the wanted poster, which had a picture of Trenza doing Charlie's angel pose using Sunaipu.

(Note: It's a reference to Black Ops' Zombies. It's a perk called deadshot daiquiri that allows you to instantly snap to the zombie's head when ADS)

"6-60,000,000 Beri's!? For my first bounty!? It's even higher than Father's!?" Exclaimed Trenza in utter shock as she looked at her wanted poster in pure bliss, while Sebas softly chuckled.

"Keep it down, Trenza. Let me get through all of the bounties, and then you can go and act crazy." Said Diddy sternly as he squinted at Trenza, who composed herself while rapidly nodding.

Grabbing the next paper, I placed it atop Trenza's picture, which caused her to frown, but whatever.

"Grand 'Atlas' Visage. 90,000,000 Beri's!" Remarked Diddy as he glanced at Grand, who nearly yelled in joy, though one look from Diddy kept him quiet.

Grabbing the third paper, I placed the final poster of the three stooges on the table above Grand's.

"Scar 'Tiche' Visage. 100,000,000 Beri's!" Declared Diddy, his words causing Scar to widen his eyes in disbelief.

(Note: Tiche is a reference from Elden Ring. She is a spirit summon, who is basically an ally of yours, who is incredibly powerful and wields a dagger with the concept of death engraved into it.)

"S-Such a high number; it's the same as Captain's first bounty." Muttered Scar in shock as he looked at his wanted poster, only for it to be covered up by another.

"Mael 'Suns Angel'. 300,000,000 Beri's!" Stated Diddy as he glanced at Mael, who, despite his earlier words, couldn't help but faintly smirk.

"Heh, I quite like that." Said Mael with a smirk as he folded his arms and nodded.

"Sebas 'Grandfather' Visage. 325,000,000 Beri's!" Remarked Diddy, his words causing Sebas to softly chuckle with apparent joy.

"Hoho, an increase of more than three times as much; I'm not disappointed at all." Stated Sebas with a faint smile as he looked at his wanted poster, which was promptly covered up by the most beautiful woman in the world.

"Freyja 'The Insatiable'. 350,000,000 Beri's!" Said Diddy as he placed Freyja's wanted poster down, causing her to huff in annoyance while fire erupted onto her hand.

"Tch, fucking bastards, can't even change my picture." Muttered Freyja angrily as she glared at her bounty, having half a mind to burn it to ashes.

"Hehe, now then, I think it's time for what everyone has been waiting for! MINE!" Remarked Diddy with joy as he grabbed the final paper before slamming it atop Freyja's.

"Diddy 'Chaos Kong' D. Kong. 450,000,000 Beri's! Only Alive!" Stated Diddy loudly with joy as he stared at his wanted poster, which unfortunately hadn't changed from his previous one.
