Defection Starting From Cp9

Chapter 23 A Small Increase In The Bounty

The sun was shining brightly on this day, and the salty sea breeze was blowing gently.

Several seagulls flew across the sea quickly, then rose into the sky, and landed deftly on the tall mast of the [Scythe of Aeolus].

Among them, a news bird wearing a hat and a small bag hanging around its neck is particularly conspicuous.

"Bring me a newspaper!"

Jonah yelled and rushed to the upper deck, waving a 50-beli bill in his hand.

The news bird glanced down and immediately flew down from the tall main mast and landed on the guardrail in front of Jonah.

So, Jonah spent 50 beli to buy the latest newspaper from Newsbird.

But unexpectedly, there were two reward notices hidden in the newspaper.

After seeing it, Jonah shouted excitedly: "Captain, your bounty has increased again. And the one-eyed boy has also increased a lot."

"Is it just the two of them?" "Zero Five Zero"

Victor walked over curiously, looked at the bounty order in Jonah's hand, and whispered: "Baptiste Xi Luoke, flying scythe, has a bounty of 600 million beli. Cyclops, Cyclops, The bounty is 150 million beli."

"Has my reward increased?"

Cyclops, who was at the helm, turned his head and looked at Victor with a somewhat surprised expression.

"Alas?! Did it increase so little?"

Suddenly, Jonah reacted suddenly and screamed in surprise.

"The one-eyed boy's bounty has been increased by 50 million Baileys, which makes sense."

Victor looked puzzled and asked Jonah beside him: "But the captain single-handedly fought against a Seven Warlords of the Sea, so many Marines, and government agents, why did he only get an increase of 100 million Baileys?"

"Perhaps there is an explanation in the newspaper.

At this time, Bazel also came over, reached out and took the newspaper in Jonah's hand and started reading.

"I haven't read it yet, Mr. Buzzell."

Jonah was so angry that he put his hands on his hips and put his feet up to take a look - but he was helpless because he was too short. He was the shortest person on the ship, only less than 1.9 meters tall [Lian Wei] Wangdu was half a head richer than him.

So in a fit of anger, he enlarged his body to six meters, making him even taller than Bazel.

But he didn't dare to grab the thing from Bazel's hand, so he had to lower his head to look.

"Hey hey hey~ How can this be done?"

Now, it was Victor's turn to be dumbfounded. Standing alone next to two tall men, I could only raise my head and look at the back of the newspaper.

After a while——

After reading the main page of the newspaper, Bazel curled his lips with disdain, threw the newspaper in his hand to Victor, and said: "It is exactly what I guessed, the World government concealed the truth about the Battle of Rapeseed Port."

Jonah released his ability and his body quickly shrank back to its original shape. He couldn't help but exclaimed: "The World government actually described the huge sandstorm caused by the captain and Crocodile as a natural disaster that only occurs once in a hundred years, and even claimed that all Marine's losses were Blame it on accident.

"That's not surprising."

Bazel snorted and explained: "The captain was originally an agent who betrayed World Government, but he brought a heavy blow to World Government and Marine. If this kind of thing is exposed, they will definitely lose their face. The most important thing is , I am afraid they did not expect to suffer such heavy losses.

Jonah nodded thoughtfully and said to himself: "That's why the World Government did not significantly increase the captain's bounty. Otherwise, it would prove from another aspect that Marine's injury was not an accident."

"That's right, as for the one-eyed boy's increased bounty, it's because he defeated hundreds of Marines, including a Marine colonel with the ability of Logia Devil Fruit. And we didn't have a head-on confrontation with Marine in Alabasta, so naturally we wouldn't Increase our bounty." Bazel's tone was casual, and he didn't care whether his bounty had increased.

"Just routine operations."

At this time, Xi Luoke was lying on the deck chair, turned over and changed into a comfortable position, and said lazily.

"Captain, the lemon tea and chocolate chip cookies you requested are here."

Gutus walked out of the kitchen, holding a silver tray and placing it on the small round table next to the lounge chair.

Jonah smelled the fragrance in the air, his eyes lit up, and he said loudly: "Chef, I want to eat cookies too!"

Gutus rolled his eyes and said angrily: "There's more in the kitchen, go get it yourself."

"Eat the cookies! Eat the cookies!"

Jonah immediately forgot about the reward and ran to the kitchen quickly.

Xi Luoke sat up slowly, reached for the glass of iced lemon black tea and took a big sip - the cold, sour and sweet tea penetrated into his internal organs, making him feel relaxed and happy, and his sleepy brain was much awake.

“The acidity has increased a bit…but it’s not bad.”

He smacked his mouth and found that this cup of lemon black tea was a little more sour than before...

Gutus smiled "hehe" and explained: "I added some lemon juice to make it easier to appetize."

"It's really good."

Xi Luoke gave Gutus a thumbs up gesture, then grabbed a chocolate chip cookie and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing it.

"By the way, Captain..."

Gutus touched his chin and asked in a solemn tone: "Do you think the permanent pointer that Celeste gave us really points to the Sabaody Archipelago?"

Before Xi Luoke could answer, Bazel strode over and said in a deep voice: "As long as we can leave Alabasta and escape from the sight of the World Government, it doesn't matter even if it is not a permanent pointer to the Sabaody Archipelago."

"Bazel is right."

Xi Luoke nodded and said with a smile: "Unless this permanent pointer is going to Marineford, or other Marine branch fortresses, it doesn't matter if it is deceived. At most, give him a good beating next time we meet to vent your anger. 17

"What's more, we have the transaction contract that Celeste signed with us on behalf of Tiro Company, which fully demonstrates Celeste's sincerity."

"You know, Tiro Company's reputation is still very good, and it is impossible for Celeste to do anything to damage Tiro Company's reputation at will.

He is an agent of the CP organization and belongs to the dark side of the World Government. Naturally, he is often exposed to the dark side of the world.

Tiro Company can develop into a behemoth in the dark world and become an existence similar to a middleman. 0.6, credibility is essential.

What's more, when doing business, you must pay attention to the word "credibility". Even in the dark world where gangsters often fight against gangsters [some companies or organizations even pay more attention to credibility than chambers of commerce in the normal world.

Therefore, for a force like Tiro Company, transactions guaranteed by reputation will never be violated.

Gutus nodded in confusion and asked, "So we are going to Ramonas to complete the deal?"

"Yes, that's the headquarters of Tyro Company."

Xi Luoke smiled and said while eating cookies: "However, this is just Celeste's bad taste. He was not very satisfied with us holding him hostage, so he asked us to deliver the goods to his door."

"Otherwise, the transaction can be completed in Sabaody Archipelago. Because Tiro Company has a branch in Sabaody Archipelago and also has customers."
