People in Pirates: I quietly became a BOSS

When Meng Yi took Ike and Breed back to the residence, he saw Crocodile and Robin who were already waiting for him.

"You two go back to your room first, don't run around for now, I will take you to the palace in the evening!" Meng Yi pretended not to know the two of them, and said directly to Ike and Breed.

"Yes, boss!"

After Ike and Breed left, Meng Yi glanced at Crocodile and the two, and then returned to his room.

"BOSS!" Seeing Crocodile coming in, Meng Yi quickly saluted and said hello.

Crocodile nodded, then sat down on the main seat.

"MR.6! Long time no see!" Robin greeted with a smile.

Renner nodded towards Robin as a greeting.

"You're going to the palace later, right?" Before Meng Yi could ask, Crocodile asked.

"Yes!" Meng Yi said cautiously: "I won the chef contest, so I'm going to the palace to cook for the king!"

"Then, it's time to put this in!" Crocodile took out a small bottle, put it on the table, and said.

Meng Yi looked at Crocodile in surprise, what is this?Poison the king?

"Mission 1: Accept Crocodile's mission, and complete the poisoning! Reward for mission completion: Specify special attribute +[-] (poison resistance)!"

"Task 1: Reject and persuade Crocodile! Reward for completing the task: random basic attribute +[-]!"

Before Meng Yi figured out the situation, the system directly popped up the task options, but this time the task made Meng Yi feel a little weird.

Judging from the current situation, it must be Crocodile's test for himself, so it is the safest thing to do as he wants!
But judging from the rewards given by the system, it is clearly safer to reject Crocodile.

This made Meng Yi a little overwhelmed.

"Why? Don't you want to?" Crocodile asked, looking at the surprised and hesitant Meng Yi, his face darkened.

"This...BOSS!" Meng Yi gritted his teeth, picked up the poison on the table, and said, "Yes!"

"Guhahaha... This is my good helper!" Seeing this, Crocodile laughed and nodded, and said, "Didn't you suspect that I wanted to attack Alabasta?"

"Ah?" Meng Yi pretended to be terrified, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "This... BOSS! Although I had some guesses, I didn't expect the BOSS to make a move so soon!"

"Oh? Tell me!" Crocodile seemed suddenly interested, and asked Meng Yi.

"Although I have analyzed from the information that BOSS seems to be targeting the Kingdom of Alabasta for the arrangement of the Baroque Works, but obviously, our arrangement has not been completed, and it is not a good time to attack the king at this time. Choose! Wait until our arrangements are complete, and at the same time implement the beheading tactics, and at the same time fully mobilize our manpower, only in this way will we have a chance of winning the Alabasta Kingdom in one fell swoop!"

Meng Yi took a deep breath and said.

"Then what do you think is the right time for us to do it?" Crocodile asked incredulously.

"This..." After thinking for a while, Meng Yi said, "It depends on the purpose of the BOSS? If you just want to control the regime in Alabasta, then kill all the members of the royal family in one go, and then the BOSS Coming down as a hero should be able to achieve the goal, but..."

"But you can't completely control the Kingdom of Alabasta, right!?" Crocodile said with a smile on his face after puffing out a cigarette.

"That's right, because apart from the royal family, the Kingdom of Alabasta has a large number of nobles. They all have their own interests. If the BOSS wants to completely control the Kingdom of Alabasta, they need to be completely removed! But in this way ...The Kingdom of Alabasta is finished!" Meng Yi nodded and said.

"That's right, I'm still a bit discerning!" Crocodile nodded and said, "Then do you have any good ideas?"

"This... this subordinate didn't think of any good way to complete the control of the Alabasta Kingdom in a short period of time!" Meng Yi shook his head and said.

"Dancing powder!" Crocodile said softly.

"Dancing fans? What is that?" Meng Yi asked, although he was shocked, but pretended not to know.

"Oh? You don't know about dancing fans?" Now it was Crocodile's turn to be surprised.

"This... please forgive my ignorance! I really don't know what dancing fans are!" Meng Yi shook his head and said.

"Dancing powder, also known as the powder that calls the rain, can be used to bring down rain, but once this powder is used, the neighboring countries that live downwind will suffer from drought!" Robin explained to Meng Yi briefly , What is dancing powder.

"So that's how it is...wait... so..." Meng Yi seemed to react at this time, looked at Crocodile, and asked: "The Kingdom of Alabasta hasn't rained recently... Could it be because of BOSS? Did you use dancing powder?"

"Guhahahaha... That's right! And it's the dancing powder used in Albana!" Crocodile said proudly when he saw Meng Yi's shocked look.

"So it is!" Meng Yi nodded and said, "As long as enough public grievances are accumulated, it will be enough to engulf the entire Alabasta Kingdom!"

"Hahahaha... Now that you know our plan, the future work... Do you know how to do it?" Crocodile said with a smile.

"Yes! This subordinate understands! But this poison...does it still need to be released?" Meng Yi nodded, hesitated, and asked.

"What do you think... you poison, and then I go to detoxify...?" Crocodile looked at Meng Yi with a half-smile and asked.

"This...all according to the boss's arrangement!" Although Meng Yi wanted to say no, he also knew that if he said that, the trust he had just established with Crocodile would be lost immediately.

And if he did this kind of thing and didn't communicate with Cobra, then the relationship he had worked so hard to establish with Cobra would be ruined.

That's why he chose task two after the system gave him the task.

Firstly, judging from the rewards of task two, this matter should be simpler, and secondly, I don’t want any misunderstanding with Cobra at this time.

"Guhahaha... don't worry! I have no plans to poison the royal family yet! But you take the things first, maybe when... it will come in handy! Guhahaha..." Crocodile said After finishing, he smiled and left with Robin.

"Congratulations to the host for completing the task, the reward basic attribute: Constitution +1!"

After Crocodile left, Meng Yi also received a systematic reward.

"Boss!" At this time, after looking around, Ike and Breed came to Meng Yi's room.

"Boss, was that person just now... Sha Crocodile, one of the Seven Martial Seas?" Breed asked curiously.

"Well, now is not the time to tell you about this person, anyway, just pretend you don't know anything!" Meng Yi waved his hand and didn't explain anything to them.

Although he felt that Breed's favorability towards him had increased a bit, it was impossible for him to tell the other party this kind of life-threatening core secret at this time.

Hearing what Meng Yi said, the two stopped asking any more questions.

In the evening, accompanied by Bell, the group went directly to the palace.

After Meng Yi finished cooking, King Cobra asked everyone to leave, and then brought Meng Yi to the study.

"It seems that Your Majesty has obtained some information?" After entering the study, Meng Yi asked with a light smile.

King Cobra shook his head, said with a wry smile, "No, there is no news at all!"

"Then His Majesty created this chef competition and summoned us... What's the matter?" Meng Yi frowned and asked.

He thought that Cobra had made some progress, but he didn't expect that the other party didn't get any news, or...the other party had obtained some news, but they didn't want to tell him.

"It's mainly about the drought. I want to ask if Mr. Meng Yi has any better solutions!" King Cobra said sadly: "Now all the oases in the country have begun to shrink in size. If it continues, people will lose the oasis they depend on for survival...it will be really bad!"

"The only way is to find the mastermind behind the scenes!" Meng Yi shook his head and said, "Has the king ever thought about why the other party would target the Kingdom of Alabasta?"

"I don't know either. To be honest, I have not sinned against a guy with such strength!" King Cobra shook his head bitterly, and replied.

"That means there is no clue at all!" Meng Yi also sighed and replied.

It's not that he didn't think about it, and he would confess to Crocodile now. With his current relationship with the royal family, as long as he said it, the other party would definitely believe it.

But saying it doesn't make much sense at all.

Although the Kingdom of Alabasta has more than one million troops, it does not have a strong man comparable to Crocodile, which means that Crocodile has the ability to execute the beheading plan at any time.

Either, wait until Lu Fei and others come over three years later, or Meng Yi's own strength is strong enough to kill Crocodile.

But no matter what it is, it is not possible to do it now.

"By the way, I don't know who else is in Mr. Meng Yi's family?" After chatting for a while, the king suddenly asked Meng Yi with a smile.

Seeing the king's smile, Meng Yi immediately became vigilant, not because he made a fuss, but because this kind of smile is too strange!
It made Meng Yi feel like he was on a pirate ship.

"There is no one in my family anymore. When I encountered a shipwreck, I drifted to the port of Alabasta and was rescued by the residents there. Both my parents died in the shipwreck!" Meng Yi stepped back a little and said.

"I see, I'm really sorry to bring up your sad incident!" King Cobra said with a smile still.

"If the king has something to say, just say it directly. I'm really not used to it!" Meng Yi felt that he couldn't bear it, and said directly.

"Hahaha...it's okay, it's too early to talk about the Warring States period, let's talk about it later!" The king waved his hand, but didn't say it directly.

"In this case, then I will take my leave first!" Meng Yi said after hearing the words and saluting.

He felt that it would be better to come to the palace less often in the future.
