I only want to be a Shichibukai when I have Bengyu

New world.

A certain island.

There are less than a hundred households on the small island. The land on the island is too barren, the small forest does not have much prey, and there are no mineral deposits underground. As for fishing...hehe, it is hovering around here. There are a few sea kings, and not much residue can leak out from the mouths of these big guys. It is possible that they will be swallowed by the people and the boat.

all in all,

This is a desolate and lonely place where even seabirds are too lazy to poop.

However,

Seabirds are unwilling to poop in such a ghost place, but Umit, the king of shipping, does not dislike this poor and desolate island. Umit, who controls most of the shipping capacity of the New World, needs enough transfer stations to help him Reduce the pressure of long-distance transportation, as long as it does not deviate too far from the waterway, there is no fatal danger.

An island like this, Umit, always hates less, never too much.

"President!"

Men in suits and ties hurried over.

"The supplies have been completed, and the damage to the ship has been repaired as much as possible. As long as there is no severe storm on the road, it will be no problem to rush to the next big port to change ships."

The subordinates bowed respectfully and reported their work to Umit, who was sitting on the rocks watching the sea.

President,

Umit likes this title.

Although Morgans' newspapers called him the 'King of Shipping', 'Deep Current' and other nicknames, each one more exaggerated and one more bluffing, he still insisted that he was a poor businessman who had no stable territory and was wandering around. .

Blackwater Club, this is his company.

Black symbolizes the special nature of the company, and the word "water" means that the company relies on water to survive.

He started from scratch, grew up, and spent half his life, leading his Blackwater Society to almost monopolize the shipping business in the New World. However, at this point, he has reached his limit, and he can swallow up all the shipping routes and transportation capacity. Swallow it clean.

leftover,

It was all trouble he couldn't afford, didn't dare to cause, and didn't want to cause.

If you want to continue to expand next, the only option is to enter new industries.

but,

The territory of the New World may be said to be very large, but it may be said to be small, but it is really not that big.

Not to mention the separate factions of the four emperors, we only talk about the giants of the dark world and some powerful forces second only to the four emperors on the surface. They have almost divided up all the money-making businesses, such as loan sharks, romance shops, and newspapers. , warehousing, slave trading······

In every line there is a big shot who is no less powerful than Umit.

There is no easy business to get involved in.

But Umit didn't want to stand still and struggled in life. He also wanted to climb to a higher position... After some examination, his eyes were fixed on the Kingdom of Aikmundo. , a country that relies on coffee plantations to make a fortune.

Don’t underestimate coffee plantations.

The world's three major non-alcoholic beverages, coffee, cocoa and tea, are all top sellers.

The cocoa market in the New World is basically dominated by the Big Mom Pirates. After all, they are the tyrants of sweets. No food or drink with a touch of sweetness can escape the clutches of Big Mom. As for tea, there is no particularly concentrated production area in the New World. , it was divided piecemeal by different bosses, and none of them were easy bosses to mess with.

at last,

There are only coffee beans. The main producing areas of coffee beans in the New World are very concentrated. It is probably a matter of specific climate and geographical environment. In short, Latte Island, Mocha Island, Cappuccino Island, Macchiato Island, Ole Island, etc. The main origins of coffee beans are all in the same area.

That is the Bikasi Islands.

It is also the core area of ​​the Kingdom of Aikmundo.

Umit made a calculation based on the number of coffee beans shipped out of the Kingdom of Exmundo each year and the market price of that year. Although it was a very rough algorithm, he still discovered the Kingdom of Exmundo hidden in the deep sea. A giant gold-eating beast.

The Kingdom of Ekmundo is also considered a powerful force in the New World, but according to the intelligence he collected, the Kingdom of Ekmundo is not someone he can't afford to offend. The only thing that is more troublesome is the flag of the Whitebeard Pirates.

But this cannot stop Wumit's determination to expand. As long as it is done cleverly and does not directly confront the Whitebeard Pirates, it may not be impossible.

I have been in the shipping business for so many years.

Wumit understands very well that those who are brave will eat enough, but those who are brave will not be able to eat enough.

then,

Then everything fell into place.

He carefully planned the Kingdom of Amento, and used the identity of the Kingdom of Amento to start a war with the Kingdom of Ecmundo. When the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates was about to die, the entire pirate group did not care about him. The possibility of the Beard Pirates' intervention was reduced to a minimum.

"Don't let me down! Vinkula."

Sitting on the rocks by the sea, Wumit looked at the rolling sea, looking forward to receiving more good news.

Toothed whale waters, whale tail island.

An island that is not very suitable for growing coffee, but because of this, it would not hurt if such an island was smashed. The third generation of kings spent great efforts to occupy these three islands in the toothed whale waters one by one, and built them into Egypt. The northern gateway to the Kingdom of Quemundo.

It greatly expanded the kingdom's external buffer zone to avoid suffering excessive losses due to unexpected surprise attacks by the enemy.

this day,

Eight warships coming from the south slowly appeared in the sight of the Whale Tail Island garrison lookout.

The highest officer of the garrison on Whale Tail Island, Colonel Sousa, soon received the news of the appearance of reinforcements, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, reinforcements were coming, and maybe he wouldn't have to sacrifice his life for the country.

The fall of Whale Head Island and Whale Belly Island has proved the power of the invading enemy. He does not think that he is much better than his colleagues stationed on the other two islands. As the only three islands in the toothed whale waters, among the three colonels, There are frequent exchanges between them, and they are very clear about how much each other is worth.

Now two of his colleagues were finished.

When it's his turn, there probably won't be any changes.

Fortunately, the reinforcements finally arrived before the enemy, but he was not completely relieved. The reinforcements were coming, but whether they could repel the invaders this time was still unknown. From Whale Head Island and Whale Tail Island Judging from the information sent by the phone bug before the death of the two colleagues who had died in the battle, the situation was not optimistic.

Among the known information are five big pirates with bounties worth hundreds of millions.

However, he was worried, and the colonel quickly ordered his troops and headed to the port to meet the reinforcements.

"Sir, who do you think is coming?"

Colonel Sousa's adjutant stood nearby, looking at the warship that was slowly entering the harbor, and couldn't help but guess: "It should be General Foy, right?"

The garrison on Whale Tail Island only received a notification that reinforcements would be coming to support them. The Kingdom Center did not inform them of the specific identity of the reinforcements.

"Who knows, maybe His Majesty will go on the expedition himself! As you know, the enemy this time is not easy to deal with." Colonel Sousa snorted, staring at the warships entering the harbor, silently praying in his heart that it would be better for His Majesty the King to Personal expedition.

After all, the strong men of the Praetorian Guard will only leave the capital Arabica if His Majesty the King personally marches.

Except for the two strongest men in the kingdom in the Imperial Guard, Colonel Sousa didn't think anyone in the kingdom was completely sure of repelling the invading enemy.
