Arkham in the pirate world

a tavern.

Smoker and Duddy sat side by side.

Dadi took a sip of wine and said, "Why don't you go shopping with the lieutenant general from the headquarters? This is a rare opportunity? Although the naval base in Rogge Town is directly under the headquarters and is more important than other branches, it is not as important as the one in the headquarters. Is there still a gap in serving in the headquarters? As long as you please the superior officer and transfer you back to the headquarters, with your strength, you will be promoted much faster than staying in Rogge Town."

In the past two years, Dadi thought about it. All the students from the same batch of Smoker stayed at the bases of the Grand Line, except Smoker who came to the East China Sea.

Throwing a natural fruit ability user in a place called the "Weakest Sea", even if it is Rogge Town, can be said to be a luxury move. In other words, Smoker was actually exiled by the top management. .

As for why, think about Smoker's temper and you will know why. No one would like a willful guy who contradicts his boss!

"Boring!" Smoker said with an indifferent expression: "If I stay in Rogge Town, I can still catch pirates, and I don't have to serve those bastards. But you, who have been an instructor here for two years, are much smarter than before. ! To be able to say such a thing."

Dadi smiled. Back then in Rogge Town, he was as famous as Smoker, or in other words, his reputation was greater than Smoker. And unlike Smoker, he was good at observing and thinking, so he became Donghai. The number one talented sniper, but unfortunately, he met Jesus Bu who was in even better shape.

Recalling the battle that year, Dadi actually felt regretful and unwilling. In that battle, because of his daughter, he was worried and scrupulous and could not go all out. But Jesus was different. He was risking his life and risking his life and death. Regardless, two different mentalities lead to different results.

However, there are no regrets. Defeat is defeat. Dadi is not a person who cannot afford to lose. It was a shame for him to lose to the pirates and be let go by the pirates. So after that, Dadi quit. navy.

"By the way, where is Carol? Are you okay?" Smoker asked.

"Well, I sent her to school." Dadi said.

Smoker was a little surprised and said, "This doesn't look like you!"

Dadi scratched his head and said, "I can't take care of her forever."

"You're right to think so. You spoil her too much and it's easy to spoil her." Smoker said.

"I have been taking her with me before because my job is full of dangers. The pirates I captured and their partners are outside, and I am worried about their revenge. Kailuo's mother is just because... I don't feel at ease. She is alone at home. Now that she has settled down, I naturally have to think about her future," Dadi said with a smile.

Smoker took a sip of wine. Dadi's words reminded him of his chief instructor in the headquarters, the former Navy Admiral Zefa. His family was not only killed because of the pirates' revenge, but also the bounty that Dadi had previously engaged in. The job of a hunter is bound to have many enemies. If you put yourself in his shoes, can you really feel safe leaving your child alone at home?

"It seems that you are having a good time here!" Smoker sighed with emotion.

"At least I have a stable income, I don't have to sleep in the open, and I don't have to worry about it," Dadi said with a smile.

Compared to the hustle and bustle in the city, the lord's mansion was much deserted.

Liszt rarely lived in the lord's mansion. Apart from the necessary housekeepers and maids, there was no extra manpower.

Meeting room.

Crocodile and Liszt had a brief conversation. Both sides avoided mentioning the collision in the Kingdom of Flowers, and the atmosphere was acceptable.

Watching Crocodile and his party leave, Liszt pondered for a moment. During the conversation, Crocodile expressed his intention to cooperate. Of course, it had nothing to do with seizing Alabasta, it was just some commercial cooperation.

Under the command of Crocodile's Baroque Studio, he has now become a "hero" in the hearts of the people of the Kingdom of Alabasta, and has opened a casino called "Rain Feast" in the Rainland, indirectly controlling the city of the Rainland.

In addition to casinos, there are many industries in Crocodile.

The Shichibukai are different from ordinary pirates. The Shichibukai is a legal organization affiliated with the World Government. To a certain extent, as long as you accept the recruitment of the World Government and become a Shichibukai, it is tantamount to whitewashing the past crimes. Crimes, let bygones be bygones.

The Shichibukai have the legal right to plunder licensed by the World Government, and part of the proceeds from plundering will be handed over to the World Government.

For this reason, the Shichibukai are regarded by many pirates as the lackeys of the World Government, but in fact, once the Shichibukai are caught by the government, they will also be eliminated by the government.

Each Shichibukai has its own purpose of becoming a Shichibukai. For its own purpose, it cannot give up the power and status of the Shichibukai, so it uses each other with the world government.

Crocodile's purpose is to hide in Alabasta and record the historical text of the location of the ancient weapon "Pluto". He has been planning for this for many years. The appearance of Lister, to a certain extent, destroyed Crocodile's plan. If it weren't for " With the spread of "Methods for Interpreting Historical Texts", Crocodile was worried about how to find a second person who could translate historical texts.

Crocodile was able to put aside his grudges and talk about cooperation with Liszt, mainly because he couldn't figure out Liszt's purpose. He didn't know whether Liszt knew about ancient weapons, so he thought of testing Liszt through cooperation. .

And if Crocodile dares to come to Liszt's base camp, he must be well prepared. He is the only outsider who knows the relationship between Robin and Liszt, which is tantamount to pinching Liszt's weakness. As long as he has an accident, then this news , will be handed over to the World Government.

Of course, Crocodile is not stupid enough to threaten Liszt directly, so he is not worthy of stirring up trouble in Alabasta. Direct threats are the worst way to do it, which will immediately strain the relationship and create trouble for the following dialogue. Gunpowder, once they can't reach an agreement, they put themselves on the line. Is it really true that they are deadlocked with Liszt?

The fish was definitely dead, but Crocodile was not sure whether the net would be broken or not.

Not long after Crocodile walked out of the Lord's Mansion, he met Doflamingo, who seemed to be wandering around here by chance.

"Fufufufu, crocodile bastard, what are you doing here?" Doflamingo asked.

"Doflamingo!"

Crocodile glanced at him sideways, a little confused about his appearance here, but said in a very indifferent tone: "It's my turn to ask you this. If you don't stay in the New World, what are you doing in the East China Sea? Bastard Flaming elder brother!"

"Fufufufu, you are still the same as before, you haven't changed at all, you can't say a nice word!" Doflamingo said.

"Hmph, get out of the way, don't block the road!" Crocodile said with a cold face.

"It's really ruthless!"

Doflamingo smiled, but had no intention of giving way to Crocodile. For a moment, the two Shichibukai faced off, their swords were at war, and the atmosphere was tense.
