Chapter 38 Mengka’s proposal

"What are you doing standing still? Give me the money quickly!" Ian urged.

"Oh!" Mengka came back to his senses and hurriedly tried to complete the procedures for Ian.

However, at this moment, Mengka suddenly thought of something, stopped his movements, leaned next to Ian and whispered: "By the way, this... this little brother, do you know the procedure for receiving the bounty?"

"I don't know!" Ian shook his head and said, "But isn't it all just handed over to the Navy?"

"That's what I say, but you may not understand that ordinary branches cannot get bounties! Our base funds are limited." Mengka explained in a low voice: "Under normal circumstances, pirate hunters will After the bounty criminals are handed over to a nearby naval base, they will only get an arrest certificate, which will state who the bounty criminal is and how much the bounty is, and there will also be a detention certificate from the local naval base. These things are all ready. After that, you only need to take these certificates and go to a larger naval base to get the bounty."

"It means that the money for the reward for the criminal will still be paid by the naval base, but it will have to be found in a larger naval base with sufficient funds?" Ian asked.

"That's what I mean!" Mengka nodded and said: "Among our larger bases in the East China Sea, the closest one is the naval base in Rogge Town. In addition, there is also the naval base on Mirabal Island, but it is more Yuan, if you want to collect the bounty, it’s best to go to Rogge Town!”

"Tsk!" Ian couldn't help but smacked his lips. This situation was beyond his expectation. He thought he could collect the bounty at any naval base.

He knew Rogge Town, but where was this Mirabal Island?

To be honest, after being baptized by a storm, Ian discovered that when it comes to sailing, it is really best to be fully prepared before going out to sea. There are too many situations you will encounter at sea. One reason is the climate, and the other is Food supplies, whether you will get sick, and even sea monsters. Don’t forget, there are such things as Neptunes in this world, although most Neptunes are only in the windless zone near the Grand Line. activity, but no one can say whether there will be a certain Neptune species that will swim into the blue sea to move around. What if it encounters it?

He now understands why there are many isolated islands in this world, because it is too difficult to navigate in this world.

Now he heard that he had to go to Rogge Town to receive the bounty, which meant that Ian had to continue going to sea, and he couldn't help but frown.

Mengka saw the embarrassment on his face and lowered his voice again: "I have a proposal here. Do you want to hear it?"

"Oh, tell me?" Ian looked at him in surprise.

Ian can't say he has a good impression of this Monka, but similarly, he doesn't have any bad feelings. At least in his opinion, this guy can lead soldiers to resist the Bucky Pirates, so he is still a qualified navy now. For qualified people, Ian generally does not make any likes or dislikes evaluation.

As long as he doesn't infringe on his own interests.

"You hand over the Bucky Pirates to me, and I give you the bounty directly without issuing any custody certificate. Do you think this is okay?" Mengka asked in a low voice.

Ian immediately understood what he meant. This guy wanted to take credit for catching Bucky!

Failure to provide proof means that the arrest of the Bucky Pirates was not caused by him as a pirate hunter. It is impossible for Ian to stay in the naval base forever. He will always leave, and the naval soldiers currently in the base He was seriously injured and died, and he didn't see this scene. Mengka could definitely say that he was the one who defeated and captured the Bucky Pirates.

And if Ian agrees to the deal, Mengka can use all the remaining funds in the base to pay Ian as a bounty.

As for if someone notices that the funds are missing in the future, Mengka can completely blame the Bucky Pirates, saying that some pirates took advantage of the chaos and took away the money, and even directly report the loss of the money to their superiors. At that time, for For the operation of the base, superiors will again approve funds to them.

This guy has a good idea. Is he doing whatever it takes to get promoted?

Ian could imagine that if he hadn't shown incredible abilities when he captured Bucky and scared him, this guy Mengka might even directly take credit for his own work and not even give him any money.

When he thought of this, Ian couldn't help but narrow his eyes and lowered his head to pretend to think, so as not to let Mengka notice the killing intent in his eyes.

He hates this kind of people because he feels like he is being used.

But then I thought about it, why did I catch Bucky? Isn't it just for money?

Although the first ten consecutive draws have been completed, what is Ian's purpose of going to sea? He wanted to find a way to heal Kuina, and at the same time he also wanted to find a Devil Fruit for Kuina to make up for her loss of strength over the years when she was in coma.

How to get Devil Fruit? Apart from getting it by luck on the Grand Line, the only option is to buy it. A devil fruit with unknown effects is sold on the black market for 100 million beli, and

That was the price when Red-haired Shanks was still on Roger's ship, that is, the price almost twenty years ago. I'm afraid it's more than this amount now.

So Ian needs a lot of money, which is why he made up his mind to be a pirate hunter when he first went to sea. Compared with being a pirate who robs everywhere, Ian still thinks that a pirate hunter is more reliable.

Of course, there is another way, and that is the World Government. It seems that because there are more and more pirates with Devil Fruit abilities, now even the World Government and the Navy are consciously controlling and collecting Devil Fruits. They must have Yes, as long as Ian can join the navy and make great achievements, maybe he can ask for a Devil Fruit as a reward?

There are many ways, but you have to do it step by step.

Thinking of this, Ian made a decision, raised a finger and said to Mengka: "Ten million! Bucky's bounty is seven million Baileys. You can add three million more to make up ten million for me. Then Let’s make a deal, you get the name and I get the benefit, if the amount is less than this, we don’t have to talk!”

In fact, Ian wanted to bid 153 million. This price was Bucky's original bounty in his mind, but he estimated that Mengka's branch might not have that much money, so he bid million. Yes, if Mengka can get it, everyone will be happy. Not only will he have three million more, but he won't have to make an extra trip to Rogge Town.

However, Mengka was in a dilemma. The reason why he thought of reaching a private deal with Ian just now was because he remembered that there was exactly 7 million left in the base's funds, which was the funds to maintain the operation of the base in the second half of the year. Originally, he had suppressed the anxiety in his heart and wanted to risk it and make a deal with Ian, but he didn't expect that Ian would add three million as soon as he opened his mouth. Now he really had no choice.

"I can't take it out!" Mengka said dejectedly.

"Then there's no other way! You'd better give me a certificate!" Ian said with some regret. Reputation doesn't matter to him, but if he can only get the same price, then Ian will definitely have to choose to continue. With the reputation gained, the credit for capturing the Bucky Pirates will make his reputation as a pirate hunter rise faster, and he will also be able to threaten some unscrupulous little pirates. There are still benefits.

As for selling Mengka to gain face or something like that, Ian had never thought about it. A junior lieutenant in the ordinary branch of the East China Sea, even if he had ambitions to rise to the top, but what does that have to do with Ian?

After getting the certificate, Ian checked that the amount on it was correct, flicked the paper, waved his hand and said to Mengka: "Okay, I leave these guys to you, I'm leaving!"

After Ian turned around and left the base, Mengka looked at his back, his eyes full of evil. The failure of this transaction made Mengka feel more and more important about power. If he was the person in charge of the base, why bother? Discussing with Ian so secretly? Just say it directly. Don't say 153 million when the time comes. As long as it does not exceed the one-year funding standard of the Base, he will be able to spend no matter how much money he has...

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

When walking through the door, Ian saw Kebi who had been hiding before and waved to him.

Kebi looked excited and excited at this time. Although he did not follow Ian in because of fear, he lay down at the window and watched Ian show off his power, so when he saw Ian, he immediately became excited. He rushed to Ian, clenched his fists with gleaming eyes and said, "Brother Ian, you... you... you are so powerful!"

He gestured incoherently: "Just now you pointed your finger with that flaming sword, and those vicious pirates tied themselves up obediently! Oh my God, when will I be able to be like you, just move my mouth? Just deter those pirates!"

Kebi's eyes were full of admiration for Ian. He had completely assumed the role of Ian, imagining that he could do the same again. That would be too majestic.

Ian smiled slightly, touched the little man's pink hair, and said, "It's nothing. Don't you want to be a navy in the future? As long as you can become a navy admiral, you can do the same."

"Really? I...I can also become an admiral!?" Kirby asked in disbelief.

"There will be a day, as long as you don't give up!" Ian said with a smile: "However, if one day you really become a navy, then remember, to become an upright navy, don't be like Just like the guy inside..."

Who the guy inside was referring to, Kebi didn't know. He didn't hear the conversation between Ian and Mengka, so he could only nodded in understanding.

The reason why Ian said this to Kebi was because after a conversation with Monka, he felt that it would be easier for an upright person to gain respect from others. There are good people among pirates, and similarly, in the navy There will also be scum. Mengka is not an upright person, so Ian doesn't respect him at all, even if he is a second lieutenant in the navy. If he is not respected, others will not help him easily, knowing that Mengka wants this. Even though he was promoted after his first credit, Ian still didn't want to help.

This is the so-called "good way" means more help, but the "unreasonable way" means little help.

On the other hand, Kebi, although this child is timid and cowardly, he is kind-hearted. Ian does not want to see him lose this nature in the future, so he gave him a piece of advice, hoping that he can become a respected person in the future.
