Pirates: The Salary Is In Place, The Four Emperors Are Kicked Out

"what?!"

On the pirate ship, Crocodile was stunned for a moment. On the opposite warship, overwhelming slashes roared out. It easily destroyed all the shells in the air, and even hit the pirate ship without any damage.

And strangely, none of these destroyed shells exploded, and they all fell into the sea like destroyed iron balls.

"Captain! That is... what is that!"

The pirates who have only played against the pirates of the paradise level were instantly scared to pee, what is this! Slash? ! Pirates with powerful swordsmanship and the others have not fought against each other, and they have also encountered swordsmen who can perform flying slashes, but is this kind of weird slashing a joke? ! I'm afraid this ship will be torn to shreds in an instant!

"Drink! Sand Wall!"

Crocodile roared and waved his right hand vigorously, and a huge amount of sand rushed out, turning into a thick wall of sand, "Looks like there is a powerful guy on the opposite side!"

"Chi Chi Chi Chi Chi!"

The sharp slashes slashed continuously on the sand wall, and from time to time, there were several slashes in the same place, and finally broke through the shackles of the wall, slashed on the pirate ship, and cut the ships one by one. .

"Damn it! Modo Sand Wall! Hold on to Laozi!"

Crocodile also waved his left hand out, and the amount of sand instantly doubled. This time, he finally blocked the slashing dash.

"call--"

Crocodile breathed a sigh of relief, but in the next second, his pupils suddenly shrank - whether it was the edge of the sand wall where he was split, or the side of the ship hit by the slash, there were signs of being frozen.

A certain unlucky bastard who was scratched by the edge of the slash, even had half of his leg cut off, and the cut off half of his leg had turned into a wanton ice cube, which was very scary.

"This is... a frozen slash?! Could it be... Naval Headquarters Rear Admiral, Kuzan, one of the three Logia monsters with Frozen Fruit ability?! Damn it! How could it be such a monster!!"

Even Logia is divided into strengths and weaknesses. Crocodile is still very self-aware. Although his strength is not bad, he doesn't think he has much chance of winning compared to this monster that was hyped in the overwhelming newspapers.

Therefore, his complexion has become extremely ugly now.

However, what was more frightened and flustered than him were his pirate subordinates, who had seen this level of power for the first time.

"Captain, here we come! The warship is here!"

"But... how come there is no intention to attack?"

Crocodile then reacted, and after the counterattack destroyed all the shells, the opponent stopped attacking.

"...Did you come to me on purpose?"

He was a little surprised, and his originally tense mood relaxed a little.

...

"Supernova Crocodile, first meeting."

The Marine warship gradually approached, until it came to a point where both sides could easily see each other and stopped. On the bow deck of the warship, Kuzan appeared in a white cloak, which is the only one of the officers.

"It really is you! Naval Headquarters Rear Admiral, Logia Frozen Fruit ability Kuzan!"

Crocodile frowned, "Why is a monster like you here! Did you deliberately take Laozi's head?!"

"Allah, they are all Logia capable people. You call me a monster, I'm afraid it's not good?"

Kuzan smiled, "Well, I want to discuss something with you, do you have any free time?"

"Marine Rear Admiral asked me a pirate to discuss things?" Crocodile's face was cold, "Do you want Laozi to give up resistance and let you take it to Impelton?!"

"Don't be so mad, Supernova Crocodile..."

Kuzan smiled, "I really have something to discuss with you. After all, if I want to arrest you, you have little room to resist..."

"Don't underestimate Laozi! Damn Marine!!"

Crocodile, who has always been arrogant and arrogant, turned extremely ugly, and said loudly, "If you try your best, Laozi will be able to sink you and the warship under your feet to the bottom of the sea!!"

clap clap clap...

Along with the applause, Polsalino's frivolous voice sounded: "Wow wow~ Supernova Crocodile, but maybe it is this confidence that made the World government choose you~"

"You are... Naval Headquarters Vice Admiral, Porusalino the Logia Sparkling fruit ability?!!!"

If just now, Crocodile felt that he had a 20% chance of killing Kuzan if he fought against Kuzan with the determination to die. Then the moment he saw and recognized Porusalino, the probability in his heart became zero.

"It's really scary,"

Polsalino smiled, "Could it be that the pirates now remember our names and abilities?"

Knowing that he would definitely die if he fought, Crocodile returned to normal after a moment of panic and despair.

He remembered a statement made by Polusalino just now, and couldn't help frowning:

"It's not convincing from your mouth, Vice Admiral Polsalino! But what do you mean by what you just said? Laozi was chosen by the World government?"

"Well, literally, Crocodile~"

"!!!"

Crocodile's whole body jolted, and then his pupils shrank instantly, and his body suddenly tensed. He jumped back subconsciously, his eyes fixed on Polsalino who suddenly appeared beside him, and his body was still shining with golden light.

(When?! I didn't notice anything!!!)

"Well, don't be nervous~"

Polsalino smiled and waved his hand, and Kuzan also jumped off the warship and landed behind him.

"In a way, we're bringing you good luck, Crocodile~ maybe you should treat us to a drink as a thank you?"

...

"Is that the case, is it a legitimate pirate? Laozi is favored by the world government, right? Those bigwigs in power think Laozi has the power to deter the sea?"

After listening to Polusalino's brief account, Crocodile was no longer nervous. Although he was still wary of Polsalino and Kuzan's every move, his expression was already very calm, and he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

"That's right, the name of Sand Crocodile has already resounded on this Grand Line,"

Porusalino laughed, "And even in the New World, your name about Crocodile is already impressive. You are sailing through the paradise like a broken bamboo, and the World government and Marine can no longer ignore you."

"Humph!"

Even Crocodile couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth in the face of the praise of a strong man like Polsalino, but his tone was still arrogant: "Legal pirates? Haha, such a big name, the World Government has become so weak. To what extent?"

Crocodile continued to mock, "Or are you planning to cut your Marines? Want to rely on us pirates to deal with pirates?"

"Well, World government just chose a more labor-saving method. After all, if I really want to, I can solve 100 pirates a day like you, Crocodile?"

"...How arrogant!"

"Where, it's the truth~"

Crocodile, who had an ugly face, did not intend to continue discussing the gap between his own strength and Polusalino's strength, and the conversation changed immediately, "So, Mr. Polusalino Vice Admiral, after becoming Shichibukai, Laozi What can you get?"

Hearing Crocodile's reply, Kuzan, who was behind Polsalino, nodded secretly in his heart—for a stubborn guy like Crocodile, he didn't directly refuse, which meant that the negotiation was half done.

"You can get a lot. The most important thing is of course the legal right to plunder within a certain range, and the plunder is innocent,"

Porusalino replied, "The hunt for you will also cease, and Marine won't pursue it any more, is that enough?"

"Pfft~ Is this the condition?"

Crocodile laughed out loud, "Do you think of Laozi as those pirates who are like frogs in the bottom of a well?!"

"This is already a lot of sincerity,"

Porusalino still had a smile on his face, "After all, Seven Warlords of the Sea and Impel down, you have to choose one, right? And please forgive me a little bit, I am more afraid of trouble, and I don't plan to make a second trip... In other words, you have to solve this point today~"

"..."

Crocodile's expression froze - he wanted to speak loudly to gain more benefits for himself, but he didn't expect that Polsalino was so ignorant of the unspoken rules of negotiation, he not only directly turned the table, but also said this. superior.

"Actually, we are really sincere, Mr. Crocodile~"

Polsalino smiled, like a third-rate salesman from Sabaody Archipelago, "Marine won't want you, that's a great thing! And legal looting within a certain range~"

"...Is it okay to establish a base after legal looting? You Marines won't come to trouble, right? Also, with this certain range, shouldn't you tell Laozi that the sea area is only the size of a palm?"

"Of course there's no problem~ As long as you want, even in a country that is a member of the World government, you can build a safe base without worrying about Marine coming to your door. For example... Alabasta? Anywhere!"

Although there seemed to be no change in his expression, Polsalino, who was used to moving at a high speed, keenly caught the fleeting bright color in Crocodile's eyes.

(Tsk, sure enough, I already know about the Ancient Weapon Pluton. That's right, after all, he came along this route...)

"If I say no now, will I have to spend the rest of my life in Impel down?"

Although he was completely moved, Crocodile, who was deeply scheming, still pretended to be completely indifferent and sneered.

"Where is this, if Mr. Crocodile, you want to learn from the pirate senior Golden Lion, you can do it~ Prison escape is also a man's romance,"

Porusalino laughed, "Of course, just to remind you, in addition to Marine's own job, I also have a part-time job at Impel down~"

"Hmph, the negotiation with the knife on Laozi's neck is worthy of the World government!"

"So what is your attitude, Mr. Crocodile?"

"Laozi promised! The so-called Seven Warlords of the Sea!"

"That would be great~"

Polsalino's tone returned to normal, and smiled, "It's really the best thing to not have to fight. I like peace the most..."

(You love peace?! Who the fuck mentioned Impel down just now?!)

Crocodile resisted the desire to complain, and still asked with a serious face: "What should Laozi do next? Find a place to stop sailing, and then wait for your World government's call?"

"No no no, please keep going, don't stop... I mean, when you get to Sabaody Archipelago, someone will contact you again to complete the rest of the formalities with you."

"I'll go to New World after completing the formalities, does it matter?"

Crocodile frowned - if being the Seven Warlords of the Sea conflicted with his original plans, he'd have to make a choice.

"Of course it won't affect it, and it's better to say that the more noise you can make in the New World, the better... After all, what the World government needs is big pirates who can deter the sea. You should understand this,"

Porusalino shrugged, "Of course, the New World is more dangerous, please pay attention to your own safety, and don't let our discussions today go to waste. Personally, I'm still very satisfied with a pirate talent like you, Mr. Crocodile. As a member of Shichibukai~"

(Besides you, I don’t worry about anyone else giving Wang Luffy a first-stage experience baby!)

"Hey, don't bother you to worry!"

Crocodile showed a satisfied and cruel smile - as a pirate, he must go to the New World, and there will definitely be a big event that will shake the world.

That's right, the strongest man in the world, Whitebeard Newgate, this guy's head has been targeted for a long time!

...

Although people in the pirate world have long been accustomed to the big events that happen one after another, when the latest issue of the newspaper is scattered all over the world with the wings of the news bird, the whole world is still boiling.

"Legal pirates?? What kind of joke is this? Are all the people in power in the world government crazy?"

"The stability of the world needs to be maintained by pirates? What do you think of this world? Is Marine really too weak to maintain the peace of the world?"

"Marine cooperated with pirates! Shame!! Shame!!! What? Who am I? I'm just a fisherman, that's alright..."

The news in the newspapers is that the World government has struck a deal with the recently famous supernova, the Logia Sand-Sand Fruit capable person with a bounty of 81 million baileys, Crocodile. The World government has recruited him as a legal pirate directly under the World government, and has the legal right to loot outside the scope of the World government's allied countries. In return, Crocodile will obey some of the World government's assignments to serve the World government.

The selection of Crocodile is not a single example. The newspaper also said that the World government expects to recruit a total of seven powerful and famous pirates to become legal pirates. In other words, Sand Crocodile is just the beginning. If the plan goes well, the World Government's subordinates will soon have a powerful team composed of pirates.

So, not surprisingly, the whole world was in an uproar.

When did the peace and stability of the world need pirates to maintain?

World government and Marine, are they really so weak?

Of course, this is what the average melon eater thinks. As for the pirates, it's something else.

Outraged:

"Hahaha, Sand Crocodile Crocodile? That guy actually surrendered to the World government? Pfft~ The government's vision is not very good. A newcomer who relies on the ability of the Logia fruit to do whatever he wants in the paradise, when he arrives in the New World, he will know the cruelty of the world. !"

"Don't let Laozi meet him! Sooner or later, kill that bastard who embarrassed all the pirates!"

There are fearful:

"Laozi knows him! He is strong, cruel, and scheming! That guy actually became a subordinate of the World government? Trouble, what kind of guy will become the new Shichibukai in the future?"

"It looks like you have to stay away from that guy. This guy is not a good thing in the first place. I am afraid that he has become a lackey of the World government and will be happy to clean up the pirates who were originally from the same camp, right? Well, in terms of strength, We are not his opponents."

Of course also interested:

"Seven Warlords of the Sea? Are they legal pirates? That is to say, they won't be attacked by Marine, right? And they also have legal looting rights, which is interesting! I wonder if Laozi can also become Shichibukai?"

"Hmph, a new faction is about to be born! Maybe with the support of the government, it will become a force that can rival monsters like Whitebeard, Kaido, and Charlotte Linlin... It's getting more and more interesting. Ah, after Roger's death, will a new balance finally be formed? Laozi will have a good share of the pie!!"

...

The top of the Red Line, the Holy Land Mariejois, the heart of the world, the ancient city, between the powers.

"How did the world react?"

"The expected reaction, the distrust of the government has reached a very high peak, maybe some restless guys will come out to do things soon... Haven't the spies already reported it? Saved that one. The dragon of Vice Admiral, the defected giant clan, has been in a lot of action lately."

"Hmph, don't worry, it's of course, relying on pirates is not very glamorous...but it won't take long, the role of Shichibukai will be highlighted, and the sea will inevitably be relatively calm. At that time, doubtful People will cheer for the government's wise move."

"But that's the question, is Shichibukai really in control? The legal right to loot and freedom from the Marine's military strikes may have made this system a boost for these guys to become bigger and stronger... They are very It is clear that under the pressure of monsters in the New World, it cannot grow further, so I use the power of the government to absorb nutrients..."

"We can't manage that much for the time being, Marine is getting more and more powerless, and Marine's expansion scale is far less than the growth rate of the pirates. This year alone, the number of civilians who died because of the pirate riots is actually more than announced to the public. Twice as many. Without effective measures, the real turmoil is imminent.”

"Yeah, if it really doesn't work, send the highest combat power to get rid of all the restless guys here! Shichibukai is just a position, only obedient guys are qualified!"

"Damn, that bastard's word from Roger is actually driving us to this point!"

"Shichibukai is not a long-term solution after all, the 'Burning Crusade' and 'Frozen Throne' plan proposed by Polsalino before is the real way to suppress the increasingly manic sea... Wait until Marine The giant force is complete, the new weapons on Dr. Vegapunk's side are fully deployed, and the rest of the deployment has to be accelerated."

"Speaking of Polusalino, we have to quickly make the three of them the new highest combat power, Zephyr is already alone... Hmph, that bastard Garp! He will be Vice Admiral for the rest of his life!"
