Unlike the flamboyant attire of pirates, this group dressed rather smartly, especially the one who seemed to be the leader, who was mostly wearing formal attire.
Kuro was very familiar with this type of person; he had killed quite a few of them back in Sabaody Archipelago.
These are unscrupulous businessmen, and the vast majority of them are human traffickers.
They were sizing up Kuro, and Kuro was sizing them up too. After glancing at them, he walked to the bar, placed the fur on the table, and said to the burly, muscular man behind the bar, "Excuse me, how much do you want for this?"
These types of taverns can generally be used as pawnshops, including for pirate heads with bounties.
The bar owner glanced at the fur, then at Kuro, and then at the Autumn Water on Kuro's waist before picking up the fur. As soon as he touched it, his eyes flickered with excitement.

"Never mind, it doesn't matter. Just change it for me. I'll also get some food and drinks. And could you please tell me where this place is?"

“Angus…” The bar owner’s expression changed.
Angus approached, snatched the fur from Boss Dick's hand, and clicked his tongue, saying, "This fur is very well preserved, and the craftsmanship is excellent. It's worth at least five million Berries. Hey young man, how about..."
"You want to buy it?" Kuro looked over.
No, what I mean is...
He quickly drew a gun from his waist, pointed it at Kuro, and grinned maliciously, "How about giving it to me?"
The henchmen behind him chuckled at that moment, each one exuding a menacing aura.
