Farming in Pirate World

Walking further inside, Li Ming's expression changed from surprise at first, to confusion, and then to calmness at the end.

This black goat really gave him a big surprise.

"Honestly, you are not from the Revolutionary Army."

Li Ming stared at the Black Goat's face. As long as there was a hint of strangeness in his expression, he was ready to subdue the Black Goat on the spot and hand it over to the World Government.

Putting aside his current status as a member of the World Government, Li Ming disliked the actions of the revolutionary army.

In the name of justice, he has never done anything just.

A group of hot-blooded, ignorant bastards, under a hypocritical slogan, did some stupid things.

Using revolution as the slogan, they made a mess of the kingdom's internal affairs, and their nature was no different from that of the Dawn God Cult in the past.

"How is that possible! If you become a revolutionary army, you will be beheaded! How could I do such a thing?!"

When Black Goat heard this, cold sweat immediately flowed from his forehead. Being a revolutionary soldier in the Chambord Islands, isn't that asking for death?

"Then why do you have so many arms?"

"With your arms, it's enough to quickly form an elite army in a short time."

Along the way, we saw Black Goat's arms inventory. The black powder alone was equivalent to dozens of tons, more than 200 muskets, sixteen artillery pieces, some ammunition, various knives and weapons, and scattered here and there. A lot of medical supplies.

These items alone are enough to quickly form an armed squad.

You know, this is the Chambord Islands, less than half a day's flight from Marijoa. It can be said to be the closest place to the heart of the World Government!

If a revolutionary army suddenly appeared here, as long as there were enough experts, they could completely capture Marijoa in a time that many people would not be able to react.

Black Goat almost cried on his face. He just wanted to show his worth to Li Ming so that he could quickly secure his backer. Why was he being suspected instead?

"I'm really not a revolutionary army! I'm just a gangster here."

The black goat kept explaining with a sad face.

"Then let me ask you, there are so many arms, why do you just stay in Area 29?"

"With such strong firepower, you will definitely be able to fight even in the entire lawless zone."

Li Ming had a puzzled look on his face. When he saw the expression on Black Goat's face, he didn't feel panic about being "exposed", but full of grievances that he had not "misunderstood".

"This is the outermost edge of the lawless zone, safe."

Faced with Li Ming's questioning, Black Goat blurted out.

"Is that why?"

"That's why!"

The black goat looked certain, but seeing that Li Ming still didn't believe it, he counted his fingers with Li Ming:

"You see, I provoked people from the government in the early years, so I can't enter the law-abiding zone."

"Moreover, the law-abiding zone is not safe. If you don't have actual power, you can easily be affected by the battles of some strong people, and your life will be at risk."

Hearing this, Li Ming complained speechlessly:

"Are you just a cabbage as a master? Fighting all day long?"

The masters that Black Goat talks about must at least have mastered domineering.

Characters of this level are rare in the entire Grand Line.

"That's not safe either!"

"Where is this? This is the Chambord Islands, the common end point of the seven routes of the Grand Line. There will always be a few rare strong people passing by every year."

"If a fight breaks out near my house, wouldn't I be dead?"

"Is this how your family rounds up?"

Black Goat did not argue too much with Li Ming and continued to count with his fingers.

"If you can't stay in a law-abiding area, you can only stay in an illegal area."

"Although illegal zones are more dangerous, illegal zones also have their own set of hidden rules. As long as I don't take the initiative to provoke them, they generally won't cause trouble for me."

Li Ming nodded. He quite agreed with the black goat.

For the bastards in the lawless zone, the entire lawless zone is their "turf", so compared to the law-abiding zone, the rules of the lawless zone are more binding on them.

They do not abide by the laws of the world government, but they still abide by some of their own unspoken rules.

"This is the edge of the lawless zone. The internal competition is not as fierce. There are still unspoken rules."

"Besides, if something happens, I can escape to the law-abiding zone and surrender to the World Government."

"Surrender yourself?"

Li Ming was slightly shocked. He didn't expect Black Goat to have such awareness.

"Yes! If there is a bounty hunter who wants my life, then I will surrender to the World Government first. If they can't get the reward, they will have to let me go."

"Moreover, as long as I surrender to the World Government, based on my crime, the most I can do is life imprisonment, and I won't be able to die at all!"

The black goat scratched his chest hair, quite proud of his idea.

"Have you never thought about using your own abilities to dominate the entire lawless zone?"

"With enough armed force in hand, even if a bounty hunter wants to catch you, you have to think about it."

Li Ming was really confused.

With the strength shown by the Black Goat, even if he cannot control the entire illegal zone, he can still thrive in the illegal zone.

Who knows, when Black Goat heard Li Ming's words, he quickly shook his head, looking frightened:

"Boss, please don't underestimate the other forces in the illegal zone. The forces behind these forces are complicated and definitely not as simple as they seem!"

"Even against the long-armed monkey in area 28, my chances of winning are not very high. It's better to be more steady."

Li Ming was shocked again. The power displayed by the black goat was enough to frighten him.

But even this level of firepower is not enough to suppress a small force in District 28?

"It seems that the water in the illegal zone is much deeper than I thought."

Li Ming thought of the task given to him by Wulaoxing again. Within half a year, he must achieve certain results in the NO. 16 area, otherwise he would be stabbed.

"If you were to face a long-armed monkey now, what are your chances of winning?"

Li Ming stared at the black goat with a serious face and asked in a deep voice.

He wanted to simply judge how deep the water in the illegal area was through a comparison of strength.

Black Goat calculated for a while, his face was solemn and solemn, he hesitated for a long time, and then reluctantly gave Li Ming an answer:

"If we let the black goat and the long-armed monkey go head-to-head now, the winning rate is really not high. At most, the winning rate is only [-]%. It is no different than sending someone to death!"

Li Ming almost spat out his old words. Black Goat's words made him feel inexplicably familiar.

Seeing that Li Ming had a weird look on his face, obviously not satisfied with this winning rate, Black Goat thought for a long time and finally said again:

"At most [-]%, long-armed monkey's half-year operation is not a vegetarian!"

"How can half a year's operation compare to your ten years of operation?"

"But there are always risks!"

Li Ming finally understood that this black goat was cowardly to the core and would refuse to try if there was even a slight possibility of failure.

As for the gunpowder and weapons here, Li Ming almost understood it. He was obviously suffering from "fear of insufficient firepower" and was basically terminally ill.

However, it was impossible for Li Ming to be unhappy when he suddenly picked up such a subordinate, but he always felt that this black goat had some flaws in his character, and he needed to correct them as much as possible in the future.

"Okay, let's go here today. You can take this phone bug. I will contact you through this phone bug in the future."

Black Goat took the phone bug with both hands, put it in his arms with a cherished expression, hesitated for a while, and then asked hesitantly:

"Then, boss, what if someone comes to trouble us...?"

This is what Black Goat is most concerned about.

Why did he join Li Ming so readily? Didn't he just want Li Ming's backer?

He was confident enough to save his life at the hands of those gangsters, but this was the Chambord Islands, and strong men would pass by from time to time. What if a strong man didn't like him and wanted to kill him?

You know, although the possibility of this is small, it is not impossible.

He asked Li Ming for a guarantee.

"If you encounter something that cannot be solved, just contact me directly and I will help you solve it."

Li Ming understood what Black Goat was thinking, so he gave Black Goat a reassurance without hesitation.

Li Ming believed that he still had some fighting strength, and he should be able to solve some minor troubles.

If he is not strong enough, Li Ming can also choose to call the navy directly.

After all, Li Ming himself is not a gangster, but the head of the No. 16 area officially recognized by the World Government.

If that doesn't work, he can also choose to take up the banner of the world government and use dimensionality reduction strikes.

In short, even if Bartolomeo and Will are not around, he is still confident in himself.

After receiving Li Ming's assurance, the Black Goat breathed a sigh of relief, and greeted Li Ming with a flurry of greetings, so enthusiastic that Li Ming was uncomfortable with it.

At this time, instead of looking like a sheep, the black goat looked like a licking dog.

Things here come to an end. Li Ming's arrival caused some turmoil within the Black Goat Gang. He knelt down in front of Li Ming in public. The reputation of the Black Goat himself can be said to have plummeted. Some ambitious people under his command have even given birth to children. A different heart.

But Li Ming ignored this and just let the black goat solve it on his own.

If you can't handle this kind of thing well, Black Goat's ability will be nothing more than that.

Returning to the hotel where he temporarily stayed, Li Ming spread the map of the entire Chambord Islands on the ground, and based on the information obtained today, he re-examined the layout of the Chambord Islands.

First, there is the law-abiding zone.

There is nothing to calculate here. The largest force is the World Government's navy. These two parties have sufficient power to suppress the entire Shampoo Islands.

Secondly, there is the lawless zone.

This time, Li Ming was able to get a glimpse of the illegal area.

No. 20 Li Ming picked up the Black Goat Gang in District 600 almost for free, spending only [-] million Baileys in krypton money.

This was his luck and a good breakthrough.

If you want to control the NO.16 area, you must establish stable rules in the entire illegal zone.

And if you want to do this, you must defeat... at least half of the gangs in the lawless zone.

After they were convinced, Li Ming finally gained a firm foothold and established his own rules.

As for directly inviting the navy to enter the country in the name of the World Government to suppress the lawless areas, Li Ming had put this option far away from the beginning.

If you collude with the navy, you will definitely be despised by the entire lawless zone.

Underground forces have their own way of handling disputes. Once external forces are involved, they will definitely be attacked by groups.

By then, even if Li Ming can temporarily control the No. 16 area, he will be the first to bear the brunt of the navy's departure.

The navy is not his private army and cannot always be under his command. Doing so would be too risky.

The illegal zone cannot be cleared away. After this group of gangsters are gone, a new batch of evil forces will arrive, and the illegal zone will only become more chaotic.

This is why lawless zones exist.

It's not that the Navy doesn't want to take care of it, it's that it can't.

The black forces cannot be killed cleanly, and the illegal zone is a point for them to vent. As long as the illegal zone exists, they will not harm the law-abiding zone.

The black forces must be given a territory to survive. Otherwise, it will be the law-abiding areas that will suffer in the future.

"First, through the Black Goat, control the entire Area 29, establish appropriate rules and order, and then spread to other areas step by step."

"The fundamental reason for the chaos in illegal areas is that there is no unified order and management, which allows countless bastards to flourish here."

"As long as we establish an order that everyone agrees with and contact government agencies secretly, I can hold it tightly in my hands, let alone the No. 16 area, even the entire illegal zone."

"In this case, even the Five Old Stars will definitely not be able to find any fault."

Soon, under Li Ming's writing, a complete gang system was built.

With various film and television works in his previous life, Li Ming also knew a little about the operating rules of the gang, and a rough system was not difficult.

Of course, when encountering difficulties, Li Ming can also ask Robin for help in Alabasta.

Robin is a veteran who has been in the underground world for 20 years. It is far more appropriate for Robin to do this kind of thing than for Li Ming himself to do it.

However, Robin's identity is relatively sensitive, and it is not appropriate to reveal it at this time. If he is recognized, even if he values ​​himself, Wu Laoxing will definitely personally issue the demon-slaying order and uproot the Dawn Chamber of Commerce.

In this way, the prototype of the future of the lawless zone of the Shampoo Islands was completed in his hands.

Far away on the other side of Judiciary Island, Spandam was holding a phone bug in his hand, listening to the news coming from the other side, and became furious!

"Are you just eating dry food?! Even if you have a complete formula, you can't make a small pill?!"

"The world government spends so much money every year, what's the use of supporting you?!"
