"So, that's it...Old man, I'm really Sanji."

Somewhat ashamed and angry, but mostly helpless, Sanji explained his current situation in a depressed manner, while Zhepu, who was sitting across from the long dining table with Dama Jindao, just raised his eyes indifferently: "Okay, you bastard. I knew it was you as soon as I opened my mouth, so what do you want to do, you shameless thing, and brought this group of pirates to my shop?"

"That's right, you are so brave that you dare to ruin the princess's engagement ceremony. Now you are back, do you want to bring trouble to the restaurant, bastard?"

The two chefs holding their arms on one side also looked at Sanji with disdain, which immediately made Sanji angry: "Damn Paddy! You don't think I can't kick you now, do you? "

"Ah? What did this lady say? I suggest you find a so-called knight to marry as soon as possible. It would be embarrassing to stay here~"

The chef of Haishan Restaurant himself was expelled from other places because of his bad temper. Naturally, his mouth is not too clean, and although he said something unpleasant, it is not difficult to see that it is all to maintain the safety of Haishan Restaurant. After all, if Sanji If the identity of the wanted criminal is discovered, it is inevitable that the restaurant will be implicated.

"Shut up, everyone, this is my shop! If you want to fight, get outside!"

With a loud shout, Zhepu's reputation as a chef for many years was obviously not overshadowed. Sanji and others, who had already exposed their arms and rolled up their sleeves, had no choice but to stop their behavior, and then each snorted coldly to sign a temporary truce.

Zhepu's eyes also turned, and then fell on Luffy opposite him. Because the other party was the captain, he could sit opposite Zhepu, but obviously Luffy didn't have any so-called aura awareness, and he was still going crazy. Nibble on a plate of bone-in meat.

"You, Captain Straw Hat, I can't provide soldiers in this restaurant. So, you might as well make your purpose clear. What are you here for?"

Staring at Luffy with sharp eyes, Zhepu obviously will not relax his vigilance because of Luffy's seemingly idiotic behavior. Now there is no original Crick to help him earn friendship points, so for Zhepu, Luffy This foreign pirate captain is undoubtedly someone to be wary of.

"Huh? Oh, we are going to find Nami, and then let her change Sanji and others back. And then... I want to go to sea, because I want to become the Pirate King."

As a person whose brain may be full of rubber, Luffy obviously would not be frightened by Zhepu's eyes, but stated his goal very happily, which made Zhepu briefly calm down, and then confirmed After seeing that there was indeed no wavering in the boy's eyes, the former old pirate captain let out a sneer.

"It's interesting. It's been a long time since anyone in the East China Sea had the guts to say that. I don't care whether you can come back alive from that queen. Even if you run away now, you won't be able to get out of the sea. Let alone Enter the Grand Line and become the Pirate King!"

"You don't even have anyone to lead your ships on the sea. There is only one result for you going to sea, and that is to be buried at the bottom of the sea!"

(PS1: Well, I am really a bit rusty~~It feels like coding~)

(PS2: Tsk~ Having too many characters and foreshadowings in One Piece is also a problem. It’s still not possible if some of the supporting characters are not explained. In addition, I wish everyone a happy Children’s Day~~)

Protagonist's position

As a captain, the most important talent is not fighting or anything else, but the ability to identify the talents of sailors and give them the appropriate position.

This is actually the principle of knowing people and making good use of them. However, in the world of pirates, fighting is required most of the time, so this rule is not applicable to all pirates. The vast majority of pirates are more similar to bandits, relying on their fists. It's the right size to eat.

But if you are really a qualified captain, for example, you can have a captain of a pirate group that has been around for many years, then such a captain can definitely be very good at knowing people and making good use of them. If nothing else, take Bucky the Clown as an example. On the surface, this red-nosed clown does not have the aura and style to be a powerful man, but if you really look at the configuration of his pirate group, you will find that he is very capable. It seems more like a circus pirate group, but in fact the staffing is completely reasonable.

Apart from Bucky, the ones with the highest combat effectiveness are the animal trainer Mochi and the juggler Kabaji. The two are actually about the same strength, but Mochi is the deputy captain, while Kabaji is the chief of staff. Although there is indeed a reason for the difference in resourcefulness between the two, the deputy captain's authority and title are obviously greater than that of the so-called chief of staff. Although there is indeed no problem with Kabaji's loyalty, she is indeed a treacherous and despicable villain. It won't change. In this regard, Mochi's stupid character is particularly comparative. Bucky may not have read any military books, but his experience as an old pirate still makes him very clear that the people closest to him must not be despicable villains who like to play tricks, even if ordinary pirates basically have nothing good Bird, but it is better to have a stupid guy as the deputy captain than to have a treacherous villain as the deputy captain.

Naturally, Zhepu, an old pirate who has also been to the Grand Line and escaped unscathed, is also an absolutely qualified captain. Just by taking a rough look at Luffy's group at the moment, he could see that this small pirate group is currently the most powerful. Fatal weakness.

That is, the lack of navigators.

Let’s not talk about the captain’s ability to identify and appoint crew members. If the pirate group is regarded as a car, then the navigator is basically equivalent to the navigation system of the car. A good navigator is equivalent to a complete navigation system. You can easily check the route to any place, including notifying some areas that need attention. The driver only needs to be responsible for following the directions and driving to the destination easily.

Of course, arriving at the destination correctly is only the minimum requirement. The more important thing is to prevent the driver from driving the car into a ditch. The navigators on the sea are almost similar to this. The purpose of surveying the sea currents and observing the celestial phenomena is to identify the temper of the sea. After all, the biggest threat on the sea is nothing else, but the endless force of nature. When When a violent storm comes, no matter how powerful humans are, they are just ants in front of these celestial phenomena.

For a vehicle without a correct navigation system, it is only a trivial matter to get lost, and it is not surprising at all to be driven into a ditch or fall into a pit. Although Zhepu did see the seriousness in Luffy's eyes, this was the reason why he still disliked Luffy.

After all, in the original book, Luffy and Zoro got help from Nami almost at the beginning of the adventure. At present, they are able to come to Belmere entirely because the clown Bucky who works together has the most basic navigation knowledge. The reason why I was able to leave Bellmere and arrive at Kokoa Nishi Village was because the Buggy Pirates had navigators. I came back here because Nokkigao herself had learned some navigation knowledge in the navy. But unfortunately, she could not be considered a navigator after all. A true navigator is, at most, an experienced sailor who knows the routes.

So it was okay for her to take Luffy and his friends for a stroll in the East China Sea. If she planned to cross the Topsy-turvy Mountain and enter the Grand Line, forget it. Only a true navigator could lead a ship through the Topsy-turvy Mountain to challenge the Grand Line. arrive.

Nami, who was wearing a black cloak, looked at the scene in front of her with emotion. The last time she went to Alabasta, she traveled to the Red Earth Continent. This time, because she was traveling with Robin, she naturally didn’t have that convenience, but Robin’s The boat was obviously unusual. It was pulled by a huge turtle. It is not appropriate to say it was a turtle, because this guy could not only swim in the sea, but also swim quite smoothly.

"After passing this Upside Down Mountain, we will reach the Grand Line... and then according to the guidance of the Eternal Pointer, we will reach Alabasta in a short time."

Robin, who was driving the turtle boat, looked back worriedly. What worried her was nothing else but the current situation.

That's right, from the first moment she saw Nami, Robin could see that the other person was definitely not someone who was willing to be lonely, but she didn't expect that the other person would actually be so unrestrained, in a way that was similar to abandoning the country. With such a posture, he followed himself here alone.

And all of this is because of the record about ‘Pluto’.

To be fair, Robin doesn't have any fondness for ancient weapons. Her character has no intention of revenge against the World Government. She just hopes to inherit the expectations of O'Hara scholars and decipher the historical texts hidden all over the world. Unfortunately, the world government's harsh measures against ancient history forced her to become a devil's daughter who could shake the foundation of the world in the eyes of others.

The reason why he told Nami the information about Pluto instead of hiding it with false information like in the original work is because Robin understood that Nami and Crocodile were not the same. If the Sand Crocodile obtains the ancient weapon, it will definitely use it as the strongest weapon to fight in all directions. The bloody storm is just a reasonable sacrifice for it to achieve the so-called ideal world.

But if it was Nami, although Robin was not sure, she felt that telling the other party this news would not cause any big disaster. After all, she had also done in-depth research on Nami's family history out of curiosity, and concluded that she thought Nami was quite restrained.

Yes, when it comes to actual practices, selling weapons and selling armaments is no better than those pirates who rob and kill. But the point of Nami's restraint is that she does not allow bad weapons like Xia Lan to be sold in ordinary waters like the East China Sea. Except for a few that were first used as publicity, all the other Xia Lan are sold as important goods. Those forces in the new world. Even because of Nami's unconditional trust in her, Robin could easily figure out the actions of the so-called East China Sea Special Investigation Department here, whether it was seizing blacksmiths and navigators, or privately arresting pirates on the run, These methods, without exception, are all aimed at stabilizing this sea area.

Therefore, the smart Robin quickly determined that the Queen of the East China Sea is indeed worthy of being called a hero, but she advances and retreats steadily and steadily, neither taking risks nor wasting opportunities, and her methods are all for the purpose without exception. Stability and peace. Such a person, even if he found the ancient weapon Pluto, would definitely not use it as a murder weapon to kill innocent people. If a person like this gets an ancient weapon, he should do much better than a sand crocodile anyway.

As for Nami, she is not in the mood to speculate on Robin's thoughts yet. She is watching a spectacle that is absolutely impossible in reality, and that is the Upside Down Mountain. This is the only way to enter the Grand Route. The five weird routes happen to connect the four sea areas of the southeast, northwest and northwest, but only one leads to the Grand Route. In other words, it is only responsible for sending all ships into the Grand Route from a fixed direction. , if you want to complete the so-called world journey, you have to sail around the planet in this strip of sea. That's all. What's especially weird is that the four waterways inside it, that is, the waterways connecting the four sea areas of southeast, northwest and northwest, have water flowing from bottom to top, and it is said that at the beginning of the establishment of the world government. It's such a natural wonder.

For those in this world, such a natural wonder may be just a natural wonder, but for Nami, who was already doubtful, she sighed silently after careful observation: If these four channels are not If it were designed artificially using the siphon principle, her knowledge would be in vain. What's more, the silent columns surrounding the waterways, which are as silent as guards, once again prove that these waterways are also artificial products.

In short, this upside-down mountain can be determined to be a navigation route specially built by a certain force. It uses the ocean currents in the four sea areas of southeast, northwest and northwest to design an upward water flow similar to the siphon principle. Finally, the ships in these four sea areas are moved along the The waterway below led to the Grand Line. Although both the Grand Line and the Windless Zone had long been considered suspicious, after discovering that Upside Down Mountain was an artificial product, an uncontrollable haze enveloped Nami's heart.

Nami's desire for knowledge is not too strong, but she can't help but want to know the most clearly about things related to herself. After all, the information revealed by the Blood Drop Stone is very clear, and the blood dripping stone of her predecessor seems to have a very bad personality. The blood ability user is probably the direct foreman responsible for 'building' this area, but what Nami can't imagine is what kind of ability it takes to build such a natural wonder. Although the ability of the blood fruit is powerful, The strange thing is that it has absolutely no ability to shape products other than flesh and blood.

Judging from the strong currents she saw, even the most advanced technology in reality would never be able to create such a strait project. How was it done in that era eight hundred years ago? Even with Franky's technology, which can transform even humans, it would be impossible to create the Upside Down Mountain in this environment.

Naturally, if this kind of spectacle wants to appear, it can only focus on the special ability of this world - Devil Fruit.

But here is the contradiction. If these projects are really shaped by the ability of the Devil Fruit, then no matter how you look at it, the foreman should be the Devil Fruit user himself. However, the information revealed by the Blood Drop Stone clearly shows that directly The person responsible for this matter is the blood fruit ability user of the previous generation. However, the Blood Fruit is a specialized superman with absolutely no control over dead objects, so the answer is completely shrouded in an incomprehensible fog.

Nami could vaguely realize that she did not seem to have tapped into all the characteristics of the Blood Fruit, but she had determined that the Blood Fruit could not acquire other Devil Fruit abilities by sucking blood. She had done many experiments before, and she could still do it without any problems. She can drink the blood of Robin or Luffy without restriction, but even if the blood is absorbed by her, it will be immediately assimilated into her body, and she will not be able to show the power of the devil fruit inside it at all.

In this case, could it be that the so-called previous-generation ability user responsible for construction was really just a supervisor responsible for monitoring?

Nami, who couldn't think of a reason for it, shook her head irritably and threw this unthinkable problem to the back of her mind again. Seeing her come back to her senses, Robin in front also sighed faintly, and then asked in a low voice again: "Are you serious? Crocodile is definitely not an easy person to deal with."

"Ah, I know that very well."

Subconsciously tightening the black silk glove on her right hand, Nami took a deep breath, and a militant smile appeared on her face.

"However, my eloquence has always been good, so I think Mr. Sand Crocodile will agree to my request~"

"For example, give me the leading role in this scene~!"

(PS1: Hmm~~ I’m really rusty... I’ve been holding it in until now... Come on, I have to sleep until 11 o’clock again...)

(PS2: The Chen family’s daughter’s general talent: battle cry, replaces your BOSS~)

No lower limit (1)

As Crocodile's home base, the port city called Rainland, although it is still nominally an area of ​​Alabasta, is actually an area that only counts on this sand crocodile's words, and does not need to be turned over to King Kobra. The tax of half a berry can be explained. On the surface, Crocodile humbly gave up most of the city and only built himself a casino called Yuyan as a place to settle down. Therefore, this nobility made many citizens praise him. Even King Kobra had to praise the excellent character of this king's Shichibukai in public.

But in fact, Rainland is the birthplace and real home of Baroque Works. As an underground organization with footprints almost all over the four seas, there are a total of twelve senior agents within it. The naming rule is number + Mr. Number The closer it is to 0, the higher the status and strength of the agent. Every male agent has a female partner. Sand Crocodile himself is naturally the unquestionable Mr0, and Robin is his partner.

Under these numbered agents, there are 200 high-level soldiers called billions of elders, and 1,800 low-level soldiers called billions of elders. Of course, these are the numbers in the original book. Nowadays, Sand Crocodile's financial strength has greatly increased because of its access to Nami's business channel. Not to mention doubling its military strength, doubling it is more than enough.

"Oh~ It's been a long time, Your Majesty the Queen. It happened to be the fireworks stage of my plan recently. Are you here to watch the ceremony?"
