Dawn of Pirates

In the early morning, Payne and Xiaonan had come to the street to enjoy breakfast.

However, the cold wind in December was indeed a bit chilly, so Xiaonan tightened her windbreaker.

"If nothing else happens, Kisame and the others should arrive in the next two days." Payne took a sip of hot tea, swallowed his breakfast, and then said to Konan.

"But Brother Payne, judging from everyone's appearance, Calasis Todd must be a very respected person. Do we really want to do this?" Xiaonan lowered her head and took a small bite of her breakfast. She knew that all this was For whatever reason, she still couldn't bear to see a person who was loved by everyone die.

"Xiaonan." Payne suddenly stopped moving and raised his head to look at Xiaonan calmly.

"Hey" Xiaonan had never seen Payne look so formal before. She was startled and quickly raised her head and looked at Payne seriously.

"There is never a free lunch in this world. To get something of value, you need to pay a price of value. Just like this time, Calathes Todd is our mission target. This is the reason why we and Don Quixote "One of the conditions for Doflamingo's deal. In other words, he is just a commodity now, nothing more, you know." Payne's remarks seemed to be convincing Xiaonan, but at the same time he was not convincing himself. Woolen cloth.

Payne didn't know whether he could really kill Calathes Todd if he was really a fiscal officer who was true to his appearance and deeply loved and respected by the people.

After breakfast, Payne took Xiaonan around the entire country again.

It still looks so harmonious and healthy.

Except occasionally, two guys who don't look like ordinary people will pass by Payne and Xiaonan 'accidentally'.

But Payne ignored them.

Until dusk.

Kisame and Itachi found Payne and Konan under the guidance of the fish.

"Kisame, how are you?"

Penn asked.

"Hehe, I found something very interesting." Kisame said with a smile.

"Oh" Pain looked at Kisame in surprise.

"tell me the story."

"Hey, Payne, if you ask me, we can go directly into that Calathes Todd's house right now, and kill him with one blow. I have never seen such a scumbag before. . By killing him, we can not only complete the deal with Don Quixote, but maybe we can also be praised by people, hahahaha," Kisame said in a heroic tone.

"Yeah" Pain looked confused, but Xiaonan was ahead of him and asked in surprise: "Oh, isn't that right, Mr. Kisame, are you really talking about Calathes Todd?"

"But we have been asking here for two days. Everyone here respects him very much. From the words of those people, they all show great love for Calaxis Todd."

"Oh, is that so? That's right." Kisame listened to Konan's words, tilted his head and smiled, then turned to Payne's direction, and said: "We asked around on the island where I came, and everyone there Everyone wants to eat the flesh of this Calathes alive, Payne, do you know why?"

"tell me the story."

"Hey, do you know there is gold in the sky?"

"Of course, the countries that join the World Government must pay tribute to the Tianlong people with a very huge amount of treasure every year. This money is called heavenly gold."

"Yeah, it's almost half a country's fiscal revenue, and most of it is collected by the kings and nobles of the joining countries from their people. So those guys are indeed sucking people. Rubbish of flesh and blood." When he mentioned the Tianlong people, Kisame's expression suddenly turned sinister and his teeth gritted.

Konan and Itachi didn't know what Kisame had been through, so they didn't understand why Kisame suddenly became so excited.

They all looked at Kisame in confusion.

At this time, Payne came to Kisame's side. Due to his height, Payne couldn't touch Kisame's shoulders, so he stood in front of him and stared at Kisame.

"Okay, Kisame, let's talk about those things after we go to the new world. Now let's talk about Calaxis."

"Okay." Kisame calmed down his emotions and continued: "Itachi and I went to find the king of that country and heard everything about Calaxis from his mouth."

“This guy Calathes is very interesting. He is a guy with a strong spirit of patriotism. It is said that in his heart, the interests of the people of Bam Kingdom are higher than everything else in the world.

Therefore, since he became the financial officer of the Bam Kingdom, he has vigorously led the development of the Bam Kingdom's economy, making the Bam Kingdom's national strength, which was almost the same as that of its surrounding countries, become stronger.

And after the country became powerful, he was absolutely certain that the people of the Bam Kingdom would need to pay legal taxes and an additional huge amount of heavenly gold every year. This was very inconsistent with his philosophy.

So he selected a group of strong soldiers from the country's army to form a pirate group to rob non-Bam Kingdom ships in the waters near the Bam Kingdom.

In addition to using the treasure he grabbed to pay for the pirate group's expenses, a large part of it was also used to fill the vacancy of heavenly gold.

After a few years of this situation, Karasis was no longer satisfied. He felt that the citizens of the Kingdom of Bam still needed to pay additional expenses, so he paid attention to nearby countries.

Then, because of Calasis' vigorous development of national strength, the military power of the Kingdom of Bam and nearby countries is no longer on the same level, coupled with the deliberate calculation and unintentional calculations.

The escort armies of the nine nearby countries were all wiped out by sneak attacks.

Since then, these nine countries have become puppet colonies of the Kingdom of Bam. There is always a pirate group patrolling the seaside outside their countries, and these countries are absolutely not allowed to purchase any military supplies from outside.

Of course, these kings have also thought of ways to report it to the World Government, but according to the World Government, the World Government will not interfere in the internal affairs of the participating countries.

Therefore, these countries not only have to pay a high amount of heavenly gold, but also pay additional heavenly gold for the Bam Kingdom.

And all this wealth finally fell to the people of these nine countries. "Kissame relayed to Pain what he heard from the king of that country in one breath.

"In addition, in recent years, Calaxis has begun to require nearby countries to donate thirty beautiful girls every year."

"Why?" Konan asked.

"It is said that Calaxis said that using beautiful girls as mothers can give the next generation of Bam Kingdom more perfect genes. In other words, they were used by Todd as reproductive tools for men in Bam Kingdom."

"Why is this so?" Konan opened her mouth, completely unable to believe that the Calaxis that Kisame said was the same person as the Calaxis she heard about in the Bam Kingdom.
