Great Route, Navy G10 branch port.
"This is really a rare visitor!"
Ron led Dong Te and Ai Yin up to meet him, holding a cigar in his mouth: "Xiong, I didn't expect you to come to visit me."
After all, he is a pirate, and no one in the Shichibukai really has a deep connection with the navy. The only exception is Doflamingo, who was overthrown by Ron early.
"You're welcome, Lieutenant General Canglong. Wulaoxing asked me to go to Century City to help check some things. I was passing by G10, so naturally I had to pay him a visit."
On the blue-gray stone steps, the bear still wore the same black coat and light-colored casual pants that he had never changed for thousands of years. He had long hands and feet, a big head, and his overall temperament was like a brown bear walking upright.
"Go to Century City to verify some things?"
Ron chewed this sentence silently.
Looks like Tezzolo’s misdirection worked
Fujitora would never be able to do such a thing as planning to harm someone, so he could only leave it to Tezzolo. Since he was the culprit, it was easier to arrange.
"Anyway, the visitor is a guest..."
Ron thought for a moment and then retracted his thoughts and spread his hands back.
"Please! I have prepared some simple meals. Eat first. You will have enough energy after a full day."
After saying that, Dongte held the Qingquan sword hilt with one hand behind him and waved his right hand downwards.
"Fire the cannon!"
Bang bang bang!
The salute gunner received the order to light the fuse and let the colorful cannons bloom under the clear blue sky.
After all... the other party is the Shichibukai!
They only obey the high-level government officials and belong directly to the special class of the Five Old Stars. They enjoy the same privileges as CP0.
The other party took the initiative to come to visit. As a navy man, Ron had to show his etiquette to the people above to avoid being criticized.
A group of people here quickly left the port. On the other side, inside the warship where Xiong was riding, another group of people nodded, then dispersed, mixed into the accompanying soldiers, and landed at the G10 branch.
…
"Is there a war outside?"
Zoro asked Sanji as he shook his head to indicate that he was full.
"I heard the gunfire."
"No, Canglong has two important guests here today. It must be the sound of the salute."
Sanji said while clearing the plates: "The 'tyrant' Bear, one of the Shichibukai, and the 'Surgeon of Death' Trafalgar Law, who is also a Shichibukai, must be fully prepared as a navy."
"Speaking of which, what is the Shichibukai? It sounds very powerful."
Luffy asked with eyes shining as he patted his big belly.
"The seven great pirates who accepted the government's order enjoy legal rights of plunder and can suppress a sea area on behalf of the government and enclose the territory for themselves."
The "sealing" here is the "sealing" of "self-proclaimed king". The sea areas where the seven Shichibukai set foot will not have too much interference from the navy and the government, and a few are completely independent.
The meaning of their existence is to use their own deterrence to intimidate and prevent new pirates from causing trouble in the Grand Line. Compared with the navy who will "arrest" this gentle method of handling, the Shichibukai's handling method is generally different. Cruel.
After briefly explaining to them what the Shichibukai was, Nami said with a serious face.
"Do you know that the King's Shichibukai has changed three times in the past few years?"
"Krokdal, who is known as the 'Sand Crocodile', 'Moonlight' Moriah who dominates the Terror Triangle, and even 'Tenyasha' Doflamingo, who was born in the Celestial Dragons, the first two have even challenged the new The existence of the four emperors of the world who are still alive is the strongest among the strong!"
"Yeah, I see, it's really powerful..."
Luffy asked, nodding.
"Then... what are the Four Emperors?"
Nami: "..."
"The Yonko is... never mind, you just need to know that he is a very powerful pirate."
Waving her hands weakly, Nami gave up on the hopeless behavior of teaching Luffy and said seriously.
"But even they don't dare challenge the authority of the government!"
"Generally, the Shichibukai will definitely lose against the Four Emperors, but the government even defeated one of the Four Emperors! The person who did it was none other than the Navy Soryuu above us, the Immortal Vice Admiral, the Navy Demon."
"So uncle is so powerful!"
Luffy looked amazed: "No wonder I didn't have any room to fight back at the beginning."
"So don't think you can keep going, do you understand?!"
Nami roared with fangs: "The navy is simply not something a small pirate group like us can fight against."
"This is not a problem that can be solved by desperate efforts. The pirates on Alabasta gather together because they are afraid of the navy."
After experiencing the chaos in Alabasta, the Straw Hat Pirates truly saw what a monster the navy that suppresses the sea really is.
The group of pirate opponents who made them fight to the death were just a group of losers who didn't even have the courage to move on.
The real navy is just like Nami said, even the Yonko-level pirates cannot fight alone.
"But pirates still exist, don't they?"
Luffy smiled: "Don't worry, there will always be a way."
"I am the man who wants to become One Piece!"
"I won't give up like those guys!"
“…”
"Forget it, as long as you are happy, as long as you don't involve me again."
Nami sighed and stood up.
"One last thing to remind you, Luffy, I heard that your grandfather is on his way here. He will arrive in a month and a half at most."
After saying that, Nami turned and left, leaving Luffy, who suddenly turned pale and trembling, and a group of Straw Hat members with devilish eyes.
After a long time, Sanji threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stamped it out with his foot.
"Nami-san, it's actually very hard, everyone."
"No need for you to remind us, Curly Eyebrows."
Zoro replied in a bad tone, then grinned and said: "If she is really willing, why should she wear the record pointer on her hand?"
On Nami's left wrist, the record pointer they took away from Twin Capes was still worn on her hand.
I have only heard of wearing bracelets and watches as decoration, but I have never heard of any woman wearing a record pointer.
Sanji was silent, and after a moment he turned back fiercely: "What did you call me just now?"
"Curly your eyebrows, what's wrong?!"
"Damn it! You'll only have leftovers to eat next time, Green Algae Head!"
"Huh?? You have the guts to try it!!"
"We must escape within a month and a half! Definitely!"
Luffy's fighting spirit was ignited, and his eyes were spitting fire.
Looking at these three scary guys, Chopper and Usopp looked at each other and hugged themselves tightly.
I really want to live in the cell next door!
…
Crunch…
The heavy wooden door slowly opened. Xiong glanced around the bright hall and suddenly stopped: "Mr. Luo, I didn't expect you to be here."
Big White Bear Beibo stood behind Luo, who crossed his legs, placed Guiwei next to him, and lowered his head.
Hearing this, he raised his head and looked at the man who was nearly seven meters tall.
"It's been so long, bear."
We haven't seen him for a long time. Ever since he knocked him unconscious that day, Luo followed Ron's instructions and had no intention of seeking revenge against the bear.
But as a pirate, how could he swallow his anger
So after hearing the news, Luo rushed over immediately, ready to do his part.
But the bear didn't take it seriously.
It is normal for Luo to hate himself. If he can get along with him calmly, Xiong has to wonder whether the other party has ulterior motives.
Ron waved back, and Luo also let Bebo go out temporarily. The three of them sat down in a triangular position and were divided into host and guest. After making sure that there were no ears on the partition wall, Ron spoke first.
"So, can you tell me about your contact with me on the phone now?"
"Um???"
Xiong paused for a moment, looked at Luo, and nodded.
"Understood."
