Pirates: The wages are in place and the Yonko will be kicked out.

Late at night in Albana city, in an ordinary hotel.

"Um - I have a headache. I drank a little too much."

Sitting up from the bed, the old man rubbed his forehead and said casually, "When is it?"

"late at night."

The name of the man who appeared in the old man's room like a ghost was Crocodile.

Although he is the first legal pirate to obtain the qualification of King Shichibukai, compared to "Eagle Eye" Mihawk who has now reached the throne of the world's greatest swordsman, "Nose Song" Brooke has the reputation of a god of death. , "Seaman" Jinbei who is active in major news media and events organized by the world government as the strongest fishman - even "Tenyasha" Dolfrond who carried out the Sky Gold Heist two years ago Brother Ming, this "sand crocodile" is undoubtedly much more low-key.

Not many people still remember that he was the super rookie who challenged Whitebeard and wanted to take the head of the strongest man in the world. He was a natural monster that made the entire park fearful. And his activity in these years has been limited to Alabasta. He is the "hero of the kingdom" who fights pirates in the eyes of the people here. He has nothing to do with the big pirates...

"Really? It's time to take action."

The old man stood up. His dark skin looked quite zzzq in the world before Porusalino traveled through it. Wearing a button-up coat, a button-down shirt, and a belt across the chest. He was also wearing pinstriped pants and boots, with a pair of glasses hanging on his forehead - a very distinctive outfit, coupled with the old man's messy hair and completely unshaved beard, and something between "obscene" and "obscene" The appearance between "perverts" can quickly leave a very deep impression on people.

"Are you really sure?"

Crocodile's voice was particularly serious, "Is the information about your so-called O'Hara survivor really reliable?"

"You can question me, Crocodile."

The old man's mouth opened slightly, "But you should know that sometimes the world government should not be questioned!"

"Huh, world government..."

Crocodile sneered and wiped his golden hook a little, and had to admit that although what the old man said was irritating, there was nothing wrong with it.

O'Hara, a famous archaeological holy place in the West Sea, once had the world's largest number of scholars and the library with the largest collection of books, the "Tree of Omniscient." But people today cannot find any traces of this island, and the World Government has given a decent explanation:

"In order to promote the cultural prosperity of the entire world, and to ensure the authority and leading position of the archaeological holy land of O'Hara in the world of archaeology, the World Government dispatched the navy to assist in the relocation of the entire O'Hara island. Among them, many scholars of O'Hara and the Omniscient Tree, the world's largest library, were directly moved to the Red Earth Continent; the residents of O'Hara, after receiving subsidies from the World Government, freely settled all over the world according to their own wishes."

Such an explanation may confuse ordinary people, but for big figures like Crocodile, they know the inside story - O'Hara's archaeologists have conducted in-depth research on the disappearance of a hundred years and the ancient texts. The research angered the world government, and the senior officials launched a demon-slaying order to erase everything.

Therefore, in a word, O'Hara's research on taboo history has been highly recognized by the world government.

For the same reason - this old man who everyone thought had been dead for many years claimed to be the greatest planner of celebrations, but in fact he was recognized by the world government as "the planner of the most brutal war", Buena Faith tower. His legend and dangerousness have also received the most valuable recognition.

When working with someone like him, even Crocodile will subconsciously raise his vigilance to the highest level.

"It's all because of Roger's start of this boring big pirate era. In more than ten years, we turned into pure walking zombies, and even gradually became sardines at the mercy of the navy... But,"

Festa pressed the lit cigarette against the yellowed Roger's wanted poster, which was now a rare item and even a contraband.

The flames burned, and his heart burned and beat - joyful, surging, passionate!

"The ancient weapon information of the O'Hara survivor, the ambition of your 'sand crocodile', and the plan of me, the greatest celebrant! By combining the three, I can make this boring era violent again!"

"That man Roger will be trampled under my feet! Everything he left behind will be destroyed!! The world will usher in the most fanatical celebration!!!"

"Instead of freaking out here late at night, my advice is to just do it, Buena Festa."

Festa's inspiring words did not cause much disturbance in Crocodile's heart - he was actually quite simple and dedicated, and he coveted the power of the ancient weapon "Pluto" just to obtain his It's just the head of Whitebeard, who he can't defeat.

"You young man, you are really disappointing!"

Buena Festa stood on the chair, glared at Crocodile condescendingly, and said in a deep voice: "Anyway, after today's action is over, next month, remember to take time to come with me to meet us. patron."

"lets go."

Crocodile dismissed the sponsor's argument - he was the "first generation boss" who started his own business and established a Baroque studio from scratch. Regarding sponsors, he only planned to take the other party's sponsorship and not give anything in return.

Maybe his own strength is a little inferior, but after all, Buena Festa is also a big shot who became famous on the sea decades ago. It is really difficult to hide from Albana's guards and go to the ancient tombs that were discovered outside the city. Very easy thing.

"Let's do it."

This ancient tomb was excavated during canal construction a year and a half ago. The Neferutari royal family immediately stopped the construction here. King Kobra made a decisive plan after conducting on-site inspections in person. changes and protection.

"Don't call me around!"

Crocodile looked gloomy, squatted down and pressed his right hand on the ground, "Erosion of reincarnation!!"

The ground suddenly dried up and then collapsed. As the night wind blew, it turned into flying sand all over the sky. A deep hole appeared in front of the two of them.

"nailed it."

Crocodile said casually.

"Well--"

Buena Festa frowned, "Let's cover it up later. Such a big hole is too conspicuous. I don't want anything to go wrong before my celebration begins."

"Long-winded."

Crocodile jumped directly into the hole.

"Hey! What if..."

Buena Festa sighed - if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't find a better collaborator, Crocodile, who was reckless and not extremely powerful, would not have been interested in him.

But no matter what, after looking down, there was indeed no strange sound, so Buena Festa, who was afraid of her life, jumped down.

After landing gently, there was a dark space, and you couldn't see your fingers. As a professional, Buena Festa took out a phone bug with his backhand, and two beams of light were projected from the phone bug's eyes.

Looking around by the light of the phone bug, it was an empty space. After a short glance, the two of them saw what they were looking for.

"This is--!"

A huge stone with a mysterious and ancient atmosphere was placed in front of the two of them, with dense characters engraved on it.

"The historical text! I can't understand it at all!"

Crocodile, who had a numb scalp, admired this, took a step forward, stretched out his hand to touch the cold stone, "It's really unimaginable. According to legend, this thing is indestructible. How did the ancients process it? Something?"

"No matter what method they use, it doesn't matter. Give way and don't block it."

"I told you not to teach me..."

Crocodile was just about to improve his status in the cooperation when he was confused by Buena Festa's actions - the latter waved his hand to signal him to leave from the stone while operating the phone bug. , like trying to take a photo?

"What are you..."

"Of course, these words should be left to professionals to interpret,"

Buena Festa sneered, "Do you think you can understand it? Sand Crocodile?"

Crocodile just sneered - to be honest, most of the pirates with the highest status and the strongest strength in the sea today are reckless men with not very high levels of education. For example, Whitebeard has been a gangster since he was a child and boarded other people's pirate ships very early; the same is true for Shanks, who became Roger's trainee crew at the age of twelve...Other big-name pirates probably stayed there. Able to understand the level of newspapers

In comparison, Crocodile, who received relatively systematic cultural guidance from tutors as a child and did not give up studying even after becoming famous and insisted on reading newspapers every day, can be said to be a top student among pirates and is quite literate—— But it is obvious that this cultural literacy is still far from being able to interpret ancient texts.

"You haven't deciphered even one sentence yet?"

Five minutes later, Crocodile finally couldn't hold himself back and looked a little anxious, "Is the level of that O'Hara survivor really okay?"

"In my era, an impetuous young man like you would have sunk to the bottom of the sea within a month of going to sea,"

In order to plan a wonderful celebration, Buena Festa, the representative of the old era who often spent months or even years on preliminary preparations, looked down upon the impatient Crocodile, but he just When he was preparing to preach further under the latter's cold gaze——

bru bru bru bru bru

The phone in Buena Festa's hand suddenly rang.

"I'm coming!"

The calmness and calmness on Buena Festa's face disappeared in an instant, and the corners of her mouth raised a rather exaggerated arc:

"After interpretation, these words can be translated as: 'Who lives in the big pineapple in the deep sea...'"

…

Although Porusalino is not a Virgo, he is indeed obsessive sometimes.

For example, the Leander Palace team and Luffy's gang must correspond one to one.

For example, he abducted Vice President Robin's Baroque Studio. He also secretly lured Buena Festa step by step through a plan to become Lao Sha's collaborator.

Buena Festa's original collaborator, Douglas Barrett, the devil's descendant who had been sent away for many years, was also replaced by Porusalino as "the surviving scholar of the mysterious O'Hara."

This person is both male and female, sometimes even a shemale, and his age jumps back and forth from 20 to 50...

That's right, it's the persona created and operated by the Navy's deception team on the phone bug network...

…

The new world is the territory of the former Yonko Pirates BIGMOM Pirates, the Totland Sea.

The center of this sea area is now the base camp of the Yonko Pirates "NEW Golden Lion Pirates".

In a dark room, a man and a woman sit facing each other.

"I never expected that, Miss Stussy, you would be so sincere..."

The man sitting on the main seat on the left--the most powerful figure in the pirate community today, the Pirate Emperor "Black Sword" Frazier, gently clasped the table with his left hand, and rubbed the center of his brow with his right hand, saying this , looking excited but a little confused.

"If I were not sincere, I would not come to meet with you personally, Mr. Fraser,"

The beautiful woman sitting in the guest seat on the right - one of the emperors of the underground world, Stussy, known as the "Queen of Happy Street", covered her mouth with an extremely elegant smile and said, "I know you, Mr. Fraser." There is no shortage of research and development funds, but if you want to materialize the research results of Dr. Vegapunk, an excellent scientific research team is essential..."

"Yes, I really didn't expect that Lord Lu Feide, the God of Fortune, would have so many excellent scientific research teams. He is really discerning..."

Fraser admired half-seriously.

"God of Fortune" Lufed, the owner of the Lufed Corporation, one of the emperors of the underground world, known as the "King of Loans" - perhaps in the original plot of One Piece, especially the Cake Island chapter where he died tragically, this A big shot behaved very badly, but in fact this man did a lot of big things secretly.

For example, MADS, which can undoubtedly be called the world's number one research team, is sponsored by him - Caesar Courant, Vinsmoke Gage, Quinn, Vegapunk, and a mysterious Women, are all members of this research team.

For example, the sponsor mentioned by Buena Festa is also him.

Of course, Porusalino had already figured out the identity of the mysterious woman in MADS. It is Stussy who is loyal to the World Government on the surface, but actually has her own ideas. She came to see Frasier this time. In addition to completing the mission of the five old stars, she also wanted to use it as a Opportunities to seek greater and longer-term benefits for oneself...

"After all, he is known as the 'King of High-end Loans', so he has no vision,"

Stusy took out a small brown paper bag from the fine leather bag he carried with him, "So, Mr. Fraser, what do you think?"

…

"You want to know what Stussy wants?"

In the picture projected by the phone bug in Fraser's hand, Porusalino was holding a teacup filled with wolfberry and taking small sips to regain his energy. "She is a high-level executive of CP0 and one of the emperors of the underground world. , strength, power, wealth, she has it all... What do you think she desires? Fraser? "

"I don't know."

Fraser shook his head and frowned.

Upon hearing this, Porusalino shrugged as expected - due to the fatigue of the past two days, his action seemed particularly obscene: "Well, you should still remember that I once told you that even if you look at it, In the entire CP0 organization, Stussy is also a very special individual, especially the secrets related to her age, which are the secrets among secrets."

"Yes, I remember..."

Fraser nodded - under the guidance of Porusalino, he also conducted an investigation on Stussy. Everything else was normal, except that he found that this woman's appearance had not changed at all in decades. .

"So, why do you think this is the case?"

Porusalino smiled meaningfully, "Or to put it more bluntly, does her specialness come at the expense of something? For example... freedom?"

"!!!"
