I am brushing up materials in One Piece

Kos's bounty was finally approved without any objection, so the initial bounty of the three people was finalized.

And just like Brannew said, even if the three of them couldn't survive for a few days, they still made their wanted order and publicized it widely.

A certain unscrupulous journalist even published Ace's wanted order in a newspaper with the title "Horror! The emergence of natural pirates may change the pattern of the sea."

Such newspapers were sent to all parts of the world by seabirds, including of course the East China Sea.

In the waters near Rogge Town, a gray-white sloop was sailing quietly. This ship is very ordinary. There are no unique decorative horns on the bow. The hull is also gray and white without any special painting. Only the skull pattern with the spade icon on the sail can be regarded as its only difference.

A seabird delivering newspapers, perhaps tired from flying, stopped on the side of the sailboat to rest for a while.

"Bring me a newspaper."

A voice came, and at the same time a coin with a face value of one hundred was thrown over.

The newspaper delivery seabird cleverly picked up the flying coins in its beak and put it into its breast pocket. Then it grabbed a newspaper and dragged it out of the pocket and threw it in the direction where the coins were thrown.

Kos grabbed the thrown newspaper and unfolded it, and what caught his eyes was the large photo of Ace and the shocking news headline that made him feel more intimate.

"Ace, you're famous!"

Kos waved the newspaper in his hand to greet Ace who was sitting on the bow.

"Huh? Do you have a wanted warrant for me?"

After seeing the newspaper in Cos' hand, Eston suddenly became energetic. He took three steps and then two steps and pushed forward with flames to come to Cos, and carefully took the newspaper from Cos' hand.

Then he went straight to the point and looked at the reward amount under the wanted poster.

"One, two, three, four...eight, eight zeros!"

After counting the zeros in his bounty, Ace whistled happily, then looked at the beginning number, and then pursed his lips in slight dissatisfaction.

"Why is it only 100 million? Isn't it too little?"

"Ha ha."

Cos sneered. He realized that Ace and Deus were both masters of Versailles. One of them kept saying, "I'm just a third-rate doctor, a fourth-rate navigator, and a fifth-rate shipwright. I don't have the power like you." There are very few small goals.

"Come on! It's not certain whether some people who have managed to survive the first half of the Grand Line can get a 100 million bounty and become a 'supernova'. But you are better off. You have a 100 million bounty before you even enter the Grand Line. "

"Eh, is it?"

After hearing what Kos said, Ace realized that a reward of 100 million seemed quite impressive, and he smiled proudly.

"Hmph! I really want to know what Luffy's expression looked like when he saw my wanted poster."

"Then what's the bounty for both of us?"

Deus, who was in charge of the helm, also interjected from afar.

"Let me see."

Ace flipped through the newspaper in his hand again, and found the slightly smaller wanted posters for Kos and Deus under his large close-up of the wanted posters. After confirming them carefully, Ace raised his head and said to the two of them,

"Twenty million for Cos and five million for Deus."

The other two people didn't have much reaction after hearing about their bounty, because neither of the numbers was too unexpected.

Kos knew very well that his strength was only about 10 million, but after all, he was the one who killed the navy colonel, so the reward would definitely be increased a lot.

"Speaking of which, the sum of your two bounties is exactly the price of the Gray Pearl."

Ace said with a knowing smile and patted the side of the boat.

Ace cherished the first official pirate ship in his life, even though he thought it was too young at first.

But there was nothing they could do. Both Cos and Deus knew that this small sailboat was definitely not the best choice for a long voyage, but they only had three people in total. If the boat was too big, they would not be able to control it at all.

By the way, the name Gray Pearl was given by Kos, in tribute to the legendary ship in another world that may be put into a bottle, or may be dragged to another world by sea monsters, but it will never sink. Pirate Ship.

Deus wanted to name the pirate ship directly after the pirate group, but considering that this small sailboat was unlikely to accompany them all the time, he named it Spade (meaning spade). The number has been temporarily reserved.

At that time, Ace proposed the name "Stormator II", but considering that the Charger was still "alive" and there was no biological relationship between the two ships, this name was dropped.

By the way, the hull of the Gray Pearl has been slightly modified. Now the front hull can be opened, and the Charger can be driven out from the inside.

Kos took the newspaper from Ace's hand, carefully read the description on it, then shook his head and said to Ace:

"But don't just be happy. Your overly eye-catching initial bounty is a bit troublesome. Maybe after a while, most people will forget about you as a sudden rising star, but now this newspaper that hypes you to attract attention has just been published. , it can be said that anyone who bought this newspaper will recognize you."

"Wouldn't that be great?"

Ace's current facial expression is just like the smiley face logo on his hat, grinning and showing his white teeth, for fear that others won't know how happy he is.

"What a yarn!"

Kos slapped the rolled-up newspaper on Ace's head, keeping the intensity at a level that would cause slight pain but not cause real damage and cause elementalization.

"The Rogge town we are going to now is not your back garden. There is a navy there that is very troublesome for you now."

Now Ace's level has reached LV44. Although the Shao Shao fruit is still at LV4, it is obviously much stronger than before. Armed color Haki and knowledge color Haki are still LV2 and LV1.

But it's still a lot worse than Smoker, with a five-level difference in level, and the levels of each skill are just one level lower. The only one with more Overlord Color Haki than Smoker can only be used to clear the air at the moment. Miscellaneous soldiers.

So Kos thought it would be better to avoid contact with Smoker as much as possible in Rogge Town.

But now I'm afraid there is a newspaper in Rogue Town that publishes Ace's reward order. Ace may be recognized as soon as he lands on the beach, and then attract Smoker.

"Can't we just blow away the guy who came to stop us?"

Ace clenched his fist confidently, but what he received in response was another newspaper slap on the head from Cos.

"I don't object to you having such momentum, but you can face difficulties, but you can't create difficulties without difficulties, understand? And I'm worried that not only Smoker who was originally stationed in Rogge Town, but also others Other navies dispatched from elsewhere will guard Rogge to prevent us from entering the Grand Line."

After Kos finished teaching Ace, he looked at Deus again.

"Not only Ace, but the two of us will probably benefit from the glory and become semi-famous figures, so it's best to disguise ourselves."

"I understand, leave it to me!"

Deus immediately understood what Cos meant.

"I'm going to make some masks later. The one I'm wearing now is a little tired of it."

As for whether we can avoid going to Rogge Town? The answer is of course - no! Because this is Ace's order as the captain.

Although there are only three people, the Spade Pirates on the Gray Pearl already have a prototype: Ace is the one who made the decision with a slap on the thigh, and Cos is the one who added to the decision to make it less absurd. , and Deus was the one who perfected every detail that the two of them could not do.
