In Taylor's office.
It was certain that the leaders of the Twin Group and the Skull Club, including Taylor and others like Doringger, would inevitably get involved with the Black Sail's affairs.
The protection money was a strong incentive Doringger provided for all pirates under him. It wasn't that he treated his people merely as tools; he also allowed them to levy taxes on refugees, as long as it wasn't excessive.
It was like sharing a cake among everyone.
However, Liszt and Qi Li broke the rules, taking for themselves what Doringger had distributed.
It was like in a company team-building event where the big boss provides a significant sum to boost employee initiative, but Liszt took the money for himself.
That was the gist of it.
Normally, the big boss would hold someone accountable, but there had been another situation. It was Liszt's ability to "eat," but for fairness, it was still necessary to compete to see who performed better, and to whom the money should go.
