"2 billion berries?! That's what he managed to get in 1 hour right under my nose?!" Tesoro exclaimed immediately, shocked to have just lost a fortune to this unknown man who had just arrived on his ship and was winning the games without losing a single one.

"Yes, my lord, he must be cheating. There hasn't been a single game he played and didn't win something... There's something very wrong with that guy, even though he's with Lady Baccarat, he doesn't seem affected by her at all, unlike everyone else!" The general manager, who oversaw everything, murmured dismally, fearing retaliation from his boss for his incompetence in stopping the man from winning more money, knowing full well how Tesoro dealt with his enemies.

Tesoro turned back to the cameras as he watched. Lady Baccarat stood with her back to the man he didn't know... "Who is this guy..." he whispered, his gaze furious. Immediately, he used his powers and summoned the "Rain of Gold" to deal with this man. Once the gold touched him, it would enter his body, allowing Tesoro to reclaim the money by force and defeat the man.

However, the man didn't go outside and instead seemed to constantly mock Lady Baccarat, and for some reason, she began to experience a streak of bad luck, losing in several games and having various objects fall on her, with the stranger saving her numerous times. Tesoro was looking at a huge puzzle.

"What's going on?" he murmured.

"I need Baccarat to take him to the Rain of Gold at any cost! What are you doing?" He continued, watching with anger as Baccarat appeared shocked, even scared, as he spoke to her.

It was at that moment that Tesoro's eyes widened when Luffy began walking outside without further resistance, stepping into the Rain of Gold that was already falling among the crowd, all eager to have the gold fall on them as well.

Tesoro could see Luffy receiving the gold flakes, and he began to raise his arms, laughing, while Miss Baccarat, at his side, looked on, not knowing what to say. Tesoro couldn't hear them talking; he could only see the images.

Despite swearing that he saw fear on Baccarat's face, he immediately turned to his manager and quickly ordered: "Bring him to my main room. I will welcome him. If he won all the games, I will announce that he cheated and take the money back. I will use more aggressive methods." Tesoro declared, while the man quickly nodded and ran out of the room, rushing to find the two.

Meanwhile, on the scene, Lady Baccarat looked at Monkey D. Luffy. He simply said he didn't care about the Rain of Gold and stepped forward, receiving what she had so eagerly wanted him to do, though now she didn't seem so enthusiastic. Dealing with this guy wouldn't be as easy as she had thought, and he was doing this because he knew exactly how to handle it. After all, he seemed to know Tesoro very well.

She wasn't wrong, as Luffy could easily counter Tesoro's ability to trap him. After all, Luffy was laughing as his system began to beep:

[You acquired 1,000 berries.]

[You acquired 1,000 berries.]

[You acquired 1,000 berries.]

[You acquired 1,000 berries.]

[You acquired 1,000 berries.]

[You acquired 1,000 berries.]

[You acquired 1,000 berries.]

[You acquired 1,000 berries.]

The system kept beeping, increasing the value as he absorbed the gold that was stuck and entering his body. It wasn't much—after all, these were small flakes of gold that could even enter people's bodies—but the amount of each of these gold pieces that Luffy was collecting was pretty surreal.
