Can you do it, don't you have a B number in your heart?

“What is this?” Dio asked curiously.

“A void bead made from the heart of a Void Beast and a variety of precious materials. Just a single drop of blood of the one you tried to find and it would guide you to find that person, and if you crush the bead within 100 meters of the person, it will form a peculiar force field that would bind that person! No matter how hard they try to escape, the force field will drag them back! But it only lasts for 1 hour!

Dio was quite surprised by Tivan’s explanation. He didn’t expect that the bead would be a powerful tool, but Dio quickly calmed himself down. But still, the difficulty of activating the bead was a little too hard at this point as he didn’t know where he could get the Grandmaster’s blood?

But after thinking about it for a little, Dio realised that Tivan wouldn’t give him this bead if he didn’t have the blood of the Grandmaster!

“Do you have the Grandmaster’s Blood?” Dio annoyedly asked as he saw how confident Tivan was.

“Of course! Why would I take the bead out if I didn’t have his blood with me? In fact, I already use this bead before to pinpoint his location.” Tivan said smugly. Dio was annoyed as he should’ve realised that a traitor like Tivan would’ve already prepared everything in advance!

“Are you sure this bead can bind him? The Grandmaster has the space stone on his arsenal!” Dio said curiously.

“It is naturally impossible for a treasure like this bead to neutralise the Infinity Stones completely, but you have to understand the true function of this bead! As long as it’s still within the duration of this bead, no matter where the target teleports into, that person will be teleported right back!” Tivan said with a smirk on his face.

Dio immediately understood what Tivan was saying and the value of the bead. But at the same time, Dio realised that Tivan would ask something in return by offering such a convenient item!

“So, what do you want in return?” Dio asked coldly.

“I want half of the Infinity Stones after you deal with the Grandmaster! Of course, this is when you succeed, but if you fail, I will ask something else later!” Tivan said with a smile.

“That is impossible!” Dio refused immediately.

“Now, how about just two Infinity Stones?” Tivan said as he bargained with Dio.historical

“No! Don’t even think about it! I left them several of in your care, but you couldn’t do it! Now, you still want to get your hands on them? Do you still want the trouble of keeping them to yourself?” Dio said coldly. But then Tivan suddenly froze in realisation.

“How do you know that I used to have more than one Infinity Stone?” Tivan asked curiously.

Dio hesitated for a while. He let his emotion got the better of him, and now he accidentally blurted out some information that wasn’t meant to be said. He forgot that he was still in his Gillian persona, not as himself!

But there was nothing more to hide now, so he reverted to his original appearance again.

“Because I was the one who handed the Aether to you in the first place!” Dio said coldly.

“You!” Tivan was shocked as he never expected that the bounty hunter who brought the Infinity Stones for him before was the Earthling who gave him the Aether a long time ago. But Tivan immediately connected the dots. Everything that seemed out of place was now clear as days!

“You were the one who brought Ronan to my doorstep so you could take back the Power Gem for yourself! Are you also the one who stole the Aether from me?” Tivan said coldly.

“I admit that I took back the Power Gem from you, but it wasn’t as you thought! I didn’t do it just because I wanted it for myself. I did it so that Ronan didn’t get his hands on it! As for the Aether, I really have no clue how you could also lose it! But it’s clear to me that you can’t do anything to keep them safe! I only know that the Aether had fallen to a woman’s hands before Thanos took it for himself, and now, the Grandmaster has it!” Dio said coldly.

Dio was telling the truth! If Tivan could keep the Power Stone safe from Ronan, Dio would leave it alone, but Tivan couldn’t keep Ronan away, and thus Dio had to take it for himself! Tivan also knew that he couldn’t do anything to stop Ronan at that time, so he couldn’t refute it either!

Still, Tivan already gave a lot of money in exchange for the Power Stone and plus, Tivan also gave a lot of rewards for Dio to take care of Ronan! These rewards were a huge loss for Tivan as he was humiliated by Ronan and Knowhere received a huge loss!

It did look like Dio set everything up to reap a huge profit! Tivan always took pride as a treacherous trader, playing tricks on unsuspecting people, but he couldn’t take it when he was the one at the receiving end!

Nevertheless, Dio’s information was still very accurate as he investigated it himself and finally got the information about the Aether falling into a woman’s hands in an occult planet. So, Tivan knew that he had to let his bitterness go.

“I have reinforced my defenses and armed force in Knowhere. Now such a thing would never happen again!” Tivan said confidently. But Dio still didn’t look convinced.

“Hey, if I have to buy it, I will do it! I will give you 5 billion stars for 1 Infinity Stones, so 30 billion stars for all six!” Tivan said with a frown on his face. When he couldn’t achieve what he wanted with a normal means, he would resort to using his money.

It was a good amount of money too! It would make sure that Dio wouldn’t have to work ever again, but compared to the risk that Dio had to take if Tivan failed to keep it all safe, it wasn’t worth it!

It would be better if he used it to return everyone who dies during The Blip and then sought a chance to destroy all the Infinity Stones!
