One Piece Overlord

Chapter 40, Soft Persimmon

This autumn, a lot of big things happened.

The first is Bucky the Clown, a poor pirate with a low bounty who is inexplicably summoned by the government to become the Shichibukai.

If Thor was summoned as the Shichibukai because of his strong combat power, then why was Bucky?

Is it really because of the group of prisoners who escaped from Impel Down City?

In addition, there is also "Death Surgeon" Luo, one of the most evil generations, who became the Shichibukai because he provided a hundred pirate hearts to the navy.

The last one was also the guy who banged the table in anger.

The guy who claimed to be Whitebeard's son, Edward Weibull, who was supposed to die in Gunooki, was actually resurrected and was summoned by the Navy as a Shichibukai.

Looking at the newspaper, Sol's eyes were cold and he said to himself, "Wouldn't it be better to just die in Gunuki...?"

In this state, it is no longer possible to trouble that guy. Thor, who has been trapped in research for a year, has only about 70% of his previous strength.

On the third day after the newspaper was published, a piece of news came that was neither good nor bad.

Zefa retreated.

According to Yukui, when Zefa saw the newspaper, he became furious for some reason, tore the newspaper into pieces, and then took the people away.

"That mourning door god is gone, can I go get you out?"

Sitting on the wall like a fool.

Thor shook his head and said, "There is no need. There are high-intensity fierce battles inside every three days. I can feel that I have become a lot stronger this year. In addition, with me blocking the inside, the soldiers at the border will not Threatened to life.”

Yukui sneered, "Do you really think of yourself as a king or a saint?"

Thor glared at him, feeling that he was a disgrace.

"Not only that, I have a plan that can also be involved. The research institute is an important part."

Youkui slapped his mouth and said, "Awesome. One plan has been planned for several years. With just a few more plans, wouldn't it be possible to survive like a bastard?"

Sol, who was too lazy to argue with him, made a gesture like a bodhisattva's shadow.

Youkui screamed and ran away.

Thor shook his head, secretly amused. Now he can't even use this ultimate move.

.....................

"Head, ahead is Kurokas, the territory of Ghost King Thor."

On a large ship, a tall and burly monk was eating meat.

If you go around his back, you can see that there are two white little angel wings on his back.

Hearing the voice of his subordinate, the monk raised his head, thought for a moment, and laughed, "Is this the Shichibukai?"

"That's him. He has become famous in the past year. There are even rumors that he can compete with the general. In addition, Kaido, one of the four emperors, has already said that he is very optimistic about Thor's talent and strength. The meaning is obvious."

A middle-aged man wearing the clothes of a naval admiral stood next to the monk. He was the second captain of the ship and his name was Sachara.

And this ship is Captain Urki of the Broken Monk Pirates, one of the most evil generations.

"How can a general be so easy to contend with? It's just a rumor." Monk Ulki smiled nonchalantly and took another sip of wine.

A year ago in the Shampoo Islands, he was the one who had faced off against the general.

Although he was defeated by Kizaru with one kick, he still intuitively understood the strength of the general, right?

What's more, in the past year and a half, he has known his shame and then become brave and worked hard to become stronger.

If he meets Kizaru again, he will never be able to kill him with one kick.

At least, you have two feet!

Or two feet or more!

Also, does being defeated by Kizaru mean that he is weak?

Just like those newcomers to the Shampoo Islands at that time, the same would be true for the next few.

Moreover, for a strong man like Kizaru, unless you also have the strength of a general, no matter who you are, it is all a matter of my kick. One more kick will make me old.

"Where do we..."

Vice Captain Sachara asked hesitantly.

毕竟他是赏金1亿的海贼,船长是1亿800万。而那个索尔在成为七武海前的赏金可是7亿8000万!

"Just him."

Ulki chewed the meat and said vaguely.

"That guy Kidd has fought against the Yonko a long time ago. Others don't know what's inside. Don't I know it? That guy once made a big fuss on Big Mom's territory. I heard that he even defeated a general, and then Then we ran to find the red-haired one. We are looking for Thor, there is no reason why he is more powerful than the Yonko General."

Seeing that Ulki had made up his mind, Sachara nodded.

Times have changed since Whitebeard's death.

Not only is Blackbeard already unstoppable and about to replace Whitebeard.

Even a group of newcomers couldn't bear it and started looking for strong veterans to attack.

Everyone wants to push the waves ahead in the Yangtze River.

…………

On the palace terrace, Thor and Crowe sat opposite each other.

The shogi fight between the two reached a fever pitch.

Compared with three defeats in three matches a year ago, Sol has made rapid progress.

Now the two of them are no longer just the captain and deputy captain of a ship, and the people they manage are no longer just one or two hundred people.

Over the past year, the two of them have rarely seen each other.

"Let's draw"

Crowe pushed the chess piece away, giving up the chance to win in five more moves.

Thor, who was tied with Crowe for the first time, couldn't help but feel a little complacent.

In this regard, Crowe just smiled and changed the topic, "Although Kurokas is a big country with a population of over one million, its national economy is not good. The taxes it pays every year are only enough to cover the expenses of the army. It would be better if there is no war. , once a war breaks out, the national treasury will soon be at its bottom, and if this continues, problems will occur sooner or later."

Thor nodded, noncommittal.

This country is actually like a big family. If the expenses are greater than the income, or only equal to the income, then the family is really in danger and may starve to death at any time.

"I have also discovered this problem, but there has been no good way to solve it before. However, you raised it today, which means you already have the answer. Tell me about it, my lord."

Thor looked at Crowe and smiled.

"You really understand me as well as Yu Kui understands you." Crowe smiled and did not refuse.

"The reason why many rich countries are rich is not because of what happened to their citizens, but because many countries have shady means, such as war and underground transactions."

Thor was thoughtful, and Crowe continued, "Like the Flower Country not too far away from us, they launch wars to defeat enemy countries and then force them to pay compensation to replenish the treasury. On the other hand, the Flower Country The country's military strength is also very strong, otherwise it will definitely be a loss. After all, people will die in war, and those who die will receive pensions, which is not a small sum of money."

Thor nodded. He knew this. Even if one of the pirates on his ship died, he would find a way to bring a large pension to his family. Of course not in the name of the Hyakki Pirates, but anonymously.

This is why those guys are determined to follow him through life and death.

"In fact, I think this method of offending people is not advisable. You may be attacked by a group one day, and the gains outweigh the losses. In addition, the country of Dressrosa was also very poor in its early years. Yes, but since Doflamingo became king, it is undeniable that the overall economy has risen. Now, not to mention the richest man, ranking at the forefront is more than enough. And in that country, many rumors are that Dover's underground transactions have driven the economy. develop."

Thor listened carefully and remained silent.

He and Brother Ming had great hatred, but he always had only admiration for that opponent.

No matter what, Dover is a hero.

It can be said that the path he is taking now is nothing more than the path Dover has taken long ago.

"You mean we are also involved in underground trading? But as far as I know, underground trading is not as easy as it seems. The most basic thing is that we have to have a source of goods, preferably production, otherwise we will just rely on reselling the petty profits. , it’s better not to waste any effort.”

Saul sighed. It was not that he had never thought about underground trading. Even before coming here, he only thought about integrating the gangs here and then taking over the underground trading market.

But reality gave him a blow.

Even with Bill's remote guidance, there is still no profit to be seen.

In Bill's words, underground trading is also about "appearance." If you step in, who would dare to believe you right away?

At the same time, for Sol, whose "property" is getting bigger and bigger, making hundreds of thousands of beli a month is not as good as going to a casino for half a month.

After all, underground transactions are risky, and the casino navy doesn’t care.

Crowe smiled mysteriously and said, "Don't worry, boss, I didn't say to build a factory or something as a source. What our country lacks most is people, and what our organization lacks most is people who can fight." people."

Crowe pushed up his glasses, and Thor knew that he was going to be sinister again.

really.

"We can train mercenaries. Wasn't this country run by gangs back then? Although we uprooted them at that time, we didn't kill them all. As far as I know, many of those guys are still doing nothing all day long, gangsters on the streets. Let's start with them, call them all back, train them into mercenaries, and then ask the countries that are at war to pay for them... Hehe, think about it, a country that was about to lose, suddenly someone told him to do something. Money can defeat the opponent, does he want it or not?"

Thor's eyes lit up, and Crowe continued, "Not only that, we can also make good use of Yu Kui. In fact, we don't need him to play in person. The batch of killers he brought out are very good..."

Sol's mind was very bright and he immediately reacted, "You mean to let someone else hire a murderer to kill someone?"

"That's what it means. Then from their commission, we take 30% as platform fee. The bulk is still given to them."

Crowe smiled slightly.

Thor took a deep breath, stared at Crowe for a long time, and said, "Fortunately, you are one of our own, otherwise I will definitely let Yukui give you a knife. I will kill you first."

The corners of Crowe's mouth kept twitching. As smart as he was, he didn't know how to answer this sentence.

Sol laughed and patted him on the shoulder and said, "You came up with the solution, so I leave the full responsibility to you."

Crowe looked like this and sighed helplessly.

"I just heard that you asked me to kill this guy with eyes, right?"

Yukui suddenly appeared behind Crowe.

Thor and Crowe, who were sweating coldly, shook their hands and shook their heads quickly.

"No, no, you heard wrong."

The two of them were really afraid that he had killed the wrong person.

"Tch, won't you cooperate?"

Yukui grabbed a piece of fruit and took a bite, then asked, "Have you washed it?"

Sol was too lazy to pay attention to him. He only went crazy three times a day, so he was considered abnormal.

"I have good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

Yukui said vaguely.

"Say!"

Thor reluctantly slapped him on the back of the head.

Youkui, who had a resentful look in his eyes, straightened his posture and said plaintively, "The bad news is that someone is threatening to beat you up. The good news is that he probably won't even be able to come in front of you."

"Killed by you?" Sol asked with a smile.

Yukui casually threw the apple core into the flower bed and burped and said, "No, that guy was eating ramen at the ramen shop on the dock. He has already eaten five bowls. Seeing how shabby he is, he doesn't plan to pay."

Sol said seriously, "Don't pay for meals? That's not right. The boss also runs a small business, so I have to take care of this matter."

Youkui laughed and said, "Stab him to death with a knife, and leave the body to you to whip it to make him angry?"

"No, let's go test the homework done by Crowe over the past year." Sol said.

Youkui glanced sideways at Crowe and said with a flattering smile, "Then please, Mr. Dog-headed Military Advisor. When you see that man, just announce yourself and say that you are the Ghost King Thor, and let him use whatever skills he has. There is no need to hide." On."

Crowe wanted to laugh but didn't dare. Regarding this crazy killer, he was really afraid that one day he would have a seizure and stab himself.

Sol took the long knife from Lin, who had heard the news and came over with Duozhen, glared at her and said, "Women should not interfere in men's affairs."

"Huh? Did I give you face?"

Lin gritted her teeth.

Sol immediately felt like a chicken plague and shrank his head, "Sister, I was wrong..."

Yukui patted his thigh and laughed until tears came out.

In the end, Lin, who did not want to embarrass him with so many people, straightened his collar.

Thor, whose body was shaken, waved his hand and said with a sneer, "Let's go and see which grandson treats me as a weakling."
