One's talent invariably stirs up envy in others. It was widely known that Jared possessed heavenly thunder fruits now, and this inevitably marked him as a target.
“Since you've admitted defeat, you better leave immediately. If I ever lay eyes on you again, I'll kill you!” Jared spat before collecting his winnings and departing.
He needed to leave this place as soon as possible. If he were to stay any longer, there was a chance that someone might act recklessly, and that would be troublesome.
Upon seeing that, Viola and Ghaylen followed Jared and left hurriedly.
Nevertheless, despite Jared's departure, a considerable number of individuals continued to follow him closely, likely motivated by a curiosity to discover his destination.
Observing Jared's departure with a mixture of unease and anticipation, Tyrone could not help but reveal a satisfied smirk. His underlying intention was to spread the word that Jared was in possession of the coveted heavenly thunder fruit.
After Jared and his group departed, Tyrone, too, wanted to leave with the elderly woman. However, Hester stopped him from leaving.
“Mr. Stone, please stay,” Hester said.
“What is it, Mr. Sparrow?”
“Mr. Stone, is it true what you said about that young man named Jared? Does he really have three heavenly thunder fruits?”
Tyrone nodded in response. “Of course! Why would I lie to you?”
“He's only at Second Level Body Fusion Realm. How could he possibly pluck the fruits? He probably couldn't even enter Hawk King Cave.” Hester expressed his disbelief. “And what happened to you? Why do you look so disheveled?”
Tyrone hesitated to speak. After all, Jared had tricked him, and he was embarrassed to talk about it.
