Ian almost thought he was seeing things!

But when he saw the very short, wrinkled old woman walking beside Edward Weevil, wearing an extremely flamboyant leopard-print coat, he was instantly convinced that this was indeed Edward Weevil!

Miss Bakkin, the one Edward Weevil called “Mommy”, was her. In the original story, after Whitebeard’s death, she suddenly appeared, claiming to be Whitebeard’s most beloved woman and bringing Whitebeard’s “biological son” to claim the inheritance of the Whitebeard Pirates.

Her son, Edward Weevil, was a monstrously powerful figure who, years ago, attacked the ship of former Navy Admiral Zephyr, killing Zephyr’s cadets and cutting off Zephyr’s right hand, causing Zephyr to harbor an immense hatred for pirates and form the Pirate Guerrilla team to hunt down pirates worldwide.

Why were these two here!?

However, after a brief moment of surprise, Ian quickly understood. At this time, the Navy had not yet started to fill the vacant positions of the Shichibukai, so Edward Weevil had not yet received an invitation from the World Government to become one of the Shichibukai.

Moreover, because of Ian’s intervention, Whitebeard survived the war, healthy and vigorous. This meant that Miss Bakkin probably hadn’t yet declared to the world that Edward Weevil was Whitebeard’s biological son…

Ian didn’t believe for a second that these two were truly Whitebeard’s son and woman. The logic was simple: even in the original story, there was no mention of Edward Weevil when Whitebeard was alive. It was only after Whitebeard’s death that he suddenly appeared. If Whitebeard really had a biological son, what would be the point of him spending so many years building the Whitebeard Pirates and taking in so many sons as family?

These thoughts flashed through Ian’s mind in an instant. As he turned back, Miss Bakkin was already angrily reacting to Edward Weevil’s words. She raised the black cane she was holding and struck at Edward Weevil’s leg. Due to her short stature and Weevil’s towering height, she could only reach his lower leg.

As she hit him, she scolded, “Eat, eat, eat! All you know is to eat! I finally managed to scrape together some money, and you ate it all away!”

Despite his fearsome appearance, Edward Weevil was actually a simple-minded guy. Though his mother’s blows didn’t hurt him at all, he still panicked and dodged, saying, “Mommy, don’t hit me! I’m sorry!”

Moreover, Edward Weevil’s face showed a very aggrieved expression as he dodged, sniffling all the while. To Ian, he looked like a child with a low IQ…

Miss Bakkin, after a few hits, was out of breath and stopped. At this moment, she noticed Baccarat turning around and was instantly delighted. “Ah! Isn’t this Miss Baccarat? What a surprise to run into you here!”

“Hello!” Baccarat forced an unnatural smile on her face. “Miss Bakkin, it’s a pleasure to meet you!” ƒгeewёbnovel.com

Hearing Baccarat call her “Miss,” Bakkin was delighted. She put one hand on her cheek and laughed coquettishly, “Miss Baccarat, you are the one who really knows how to talk!”

By accepting the title “Miss” without any shame, Bakkin’s implication was quite clear…

Listening to Bakkin’s flirtatious laughter, Ian felt goosebumps all over his body. He glanced at Baccarat in surprise, suddenly feeling a deep admiration for her. Being able to address an old lady as “Miss” without changing her expression showed remarkable psychological strength…

What he didn’t know was that at this moment, Baccarat was cursing internally.

How did I run into this old lady here!?

“Ah, Miss Bakkin, I have some business to attend to. I need to be a guide for our esteemed guest, so I can’t stay and chat.”

Suppressing the urge to let her facial muscles twitch, Baccarat instinctively linked her arm with Ian’s and attempted to lead him away. She was terrified that Bakkin would bring up their last encounter…

However, just as Baccarat was about to make her exit, Bakkin called out, “Miss Baccarat, don’t rush off. Have you thought about what we discussed last time?”

Ian looked at Baccarat curiously, wondering what this old woman had talked to her about before.

“Um… I haven’t really decided yet…” Baccarat forced a smile on her face.

“What’s there to think about?” Bakkin leaned on her cane and pointed to Edward Weevil next to her, “Look at how handsome my son is! And he’s so strong. If you marry him, it would be a perfect match!”

Ian’s eyes nearly popped out of his head at this point!

Damn, she was talking about this kind of thing!? This old lady actually wanted to introduce her son to Baccarat as a marriage prospect!?

Even Ian felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing this. He looked up at Edward Weevil, who was smiling foolishly and chewing on his finger, and suddenly felt a bit of sympathy for Baccarat.

Sure enough, the hardest job in the world is working in the service industry…

Baccarat was on the verge of tears. It was true that Tesoro had instructed her to find a way to arrange a meeting between Ian and Bakkin, hoping to spark a conflict that would lead Ian to get rid of the troublesome old lady. But… but Baccarat absolutely did not want to face Bakkin herself!

This old woman was incredibly annoying. The last time Baccarat accidentally ran into her, Bakkin was stunned by Baccarat’s beauty and immediately thought of introducing her son as a marriage prospect…

If she could, Baccarat would love to tear this old woman to pieces! Who would dare insult her like this!? Look at what kind of idiot your son is, and you want me to marry him? Are you out of your mind!?

However, Baccarat knew very well that Bakkin’s son, who was always by her side, was simply a monster, someone even her boss Tesoro didn’t want to deal with!

First, Edward Weevil was indeed extremely powerful, and second, dealing with such people would make you lose IQ…

Normally, it wouldn’t matter; you could just avoid dealing with these two. But this old woman Bakkin was a greedy gold-digger who loved getting things for free. Ever since the first time Tesoro tried to get rid of them by letting her win some money at the casino, Bakkin got a taste for it. After leaving, it wasn’t long before she came back, repeatedly visiting the casino trying to make easy money.

In the end, Tesoro got fed up and had Baccarat drain Bakkin’s luck. But after losing everything at the casino, Bakkin sent her son to cause a huge commotion, claiming the casino had cheated her!

Tesoro’s top men surrounded Weevil, but he easily took them down. Tesoro, realizing that even if he could subdue Weevil, it would be tough for him, decided to settle the matter by giving Bakkin a sum of money.

That was when Bakkin first saw Baccarat and proposed that she marry her son…

However, Bakkin wasn’t actually interested in Baccarat’s beauty but in the huge fortune of Tesoro, who was backing Baccarat. Bakkin thought that if her son could marry Baccarat, they might be able to get a large dowry from Tesoro…

“Um… let’s talk about this another time!” Baccarat forced herself to suppress her anger and clung tighter to Ian’s arm, saying, “I still need to be a guide for my guest right now, so let’s chat next time…”

However, mentioning Ian several times finally caught Bakkin’s attention. She moved her old face, hidden behind sunglasses, to look at Ian.

For some reason, Ian suddenly felt a chill wind blowing around him…

Since Ian had changed his outfit, Bakkin didn’t recognize him. She sniffed a couple of times, then her gaze shifted downward, finally resting on the suitcase Ian was holding.

Bakkin suddenly stepped forward, leaning close to Ian’s suitcase, sniffing a few more times. Suddenly, her face lit up with excitement!

“I smell money…” Bakkin looked up at Ian, saying, “This handsome young man must be quite wealthy, right?”

“Not… not really!” Ian felt the muscles on his face twitching with the urge to cringe.

“Oh my!” Bakkin suddenly covered her face shyly with one hand, saying, “Such a handsome young man, even I can’t help but be charmed!”

As she spoke, Bakkin started inching closer to Ian, saying, “Young man, you wouldn’t mind having an extra beauty to accompany you, would you?”

Gasping, Ian felt all the hairs on his body stand on end. Watching Bakkin’s wrinkled face getting closer and her lips, painted with lipstick, puckering up, Ian couldn’t take it anymore. Suddenly, he kicked her out fiercely!

“Aaahh!”
