"Magic Valley Town has damaged streets. "These two guys, what's going on? Weren't they fighting for their lives a moment ago? How did they suddenly become partners?" Perona looked at the relaxed demeanor of Ares and Uruki and couldn't help but say

"Hehe, well, Perona, you must get used to it. Ares is just that kind of guy," Louis said, reverting to his original appearance after his ability was released, looking unsurprised.

"Man, seriously, I got beaten up for nothing," complained Spike, rubbing his swollen cheek in frustration.

"Hahaha, alright, everyone!" Ares, seeing that his companions were all awake, laughed heartily and walked towards them with Uruki. "From now on, Uruki is our new crew member, so let's welcome him!"

"Ooh!" The group of them responded cheerfully and headed towards a nearby tavern. In the tavern where Locke was, Doflamingo entered and quickly noticed Locks.

"Heh heh heh, isn't this Captain Locke? Long time, no see." Doflamingo walked up to Locke, chuckling. Locke continued to ignore Doflamingo, sipping his drink and eating his food. Feeling ignored, Doflamingo's forehead twitched, but he dared not express any displeasure.

After a while, when Locke had finished all the drinks on his table, he finally looked at Doflamingo. As Locke gaze met Do Flamingo's, a terrifying aura instantly pressed down on him. Cold sweat soaked his clothes.

"Heh, heh heh, Captain Locke, I don't mean any harm. I just came here by chance and wanted to greet you," Doflamingo explained, his purpose for visiting Locke. "Cooperation? I don't think you're qualified to cooperate with me," Locke said with little interest, dismissing Doflamingo's proposal.

"Heh heh heh, Captain Locke, don't be in such a hurry. I think you'll be very interested in this cooperation project after you hear it," Doflamingo said confidently.

Seeing Doflamingo's self-assured demeanor, Locks suddenly became interested.

He ordered the bartender to bring another jug of alcohol, indicating for Doflamingo to proceed. Doflamingo went on to explain his proposal to Locke."Captain Locke, have you ever heard of the Pure Gold?" Doflamingo asked."Pure Gold? Do you know where it appears?" 

Locke immediately became interested, as he knew what Doflamingo was talking about. The substance that could keep people perpetually young had been on his radar for a long time, but he had yet to find any concrete information about it. Doflamingo noticed Locke'sreaction and felt even more confident.

"Heh heh heh, Captain Locke, it seems you do know about Pure Gold. Since you know about it, I won't go into detail. I want to use my information about where pure gold might appear as a condition for your support."

Locke, after hearing the proposal, agreed to the terms. "Tell me, Doflamingo, if the information you provide is accurate, I'll support you," Locke said. "Heh heh heh, thank you, Captain Locke. I truly appreciate it," Doflamingo said, grateful for Locke support.

Doflamingo then leaned in and whispered the information about the possible location of Pure Gold to Locke. Listening to Do Flamingo's information, Locks nodded and ordered Den Den Mushi to send a message.

"Alright, I've sent someone to the location you mentioned. If it's the right place, you'll get my support. But be aware, Doflamingo, if this turns out to be a false lead, you should know the consequences."

"Heh heh heh, of course," Doflamingo replied with a grin.
