That is to say, from the beginning, she knew that Baroque's boss was Crocodile, one of the seven warrior seas under the king, so she was full of confidence in her contacts and market channels.

There is also a possibility that Nami was not a government employee before making this request. However, under ordinary circumstances, who would believe that a wanted criminal of a government has not only cleared his name in less than half a year, but has even become a direct official of the world government?

You must know that Nami's 'East China Sea Special Investigation Department' is an official of a department directly under the government, not a title similar to a trade item, which means that the government doesn't care about her wanted history at all.

As for a suspicious and cunning hero like Crocodile, he did not believe that Nami had such luck when he was beaten to death. He was more willing to believe that Nami herself was a member of the World Government, but he was ordered to create a new one in the East China Sea. Some tricks, now that the conditions are met, are directly back to the government's establishment.

Therefore, it is not surprising that Crocodile deduced the fact that his identity was exposed.

"Oh? Is that even a question? Mr. Crocodile?"

Raising her head with a smile, Nami looked directly into Crocodile's eyes opposite her, and her tone was surprisingly gentle and natural, as if she was saying something that was taken for granted.

"The Baroque Society is a criminal gang whose sphere of influence is located in Alabasta, and you are the only real big ~ bad ~ **** in this area ~ so do you need a lot of brains to speculate on this fact?"

"After all, you are a pirate."

(PS1: Mmmm~~First update~~)

(PS2: Negotiating with Sand Crocodile~)

ambition

The muscles on Crocodile's face twitched a few times. As a hero who has been intriguing for decades, he naturally has the ability to distinguish the honesty of others through his tone. And from Nami's mouth, who was smiling in front of him, he could indeed hear the other party's sincere answer.

But for Crocodile, this is undoubtedly an answer that is infinitely close to ridicule. Because this means that he has endured the superficial work hard for so long, and even achieved a positive title like a national hero, but for this orange-haired girl, it is just a ridiculous futility. The other party coldly denied all his positive efforts based on his nature as a pirate. And what makes Crocodile even more irrefutable is that her answer is absolutely correct.

Silently, the kindness of Crocodile's disguise completely disappeared, replaced by a dangerous cold light and a little anger. Although he did accept the fact that his identity was exposed, it did not mean that he could accept the reason for the exposure in such a simple way, but what made him angry and speechless was that he himself seemed to agree with this reason.

A pirate is a pirate, even if the king is a pirate, even if he has obtained a seemingly legitimate status and power, he can make a name for himself in the open society, but for the sand crocodile Crocodile, he never gave up His ambition as a pirate.

Whether he wants to occupy Alabasta or find the ancient weapon Pluto buried here, his ultimate plan is to use this irresistible force to continuously conquer the surrounding countries until he stands at the top of the world. Therefore, Nami's answer now is indeed the most unbearable but also the most irrefutable reason for him.

"King Xia Qiwuhai, the world government used to rule the naval headquarters, and the pirates gave up their dignity and government peace because of their own ambition. The deformed product. Sorry, my description may be a little rude, but I think in Mr. Crocodile In front of me, I don't need to pretend anymore, right?"

She picked up the glass of champagne in front of her without hesitation, and Nami raised her glass to Karroc Dale very elegantly. She believed that Crocodile in front of her knew what she meant. After all, the King's Qiwuhai itself is such a thing. .

The sea in this world is vast, and the naval headquarters that naturally governs the sea is also a powerful existence, but it is the world government that controls this world, not the naval headquarters. A watchdog with too sharp claws is not a good thing, because it is difficult to say whether the other party will swallow its owner one day because of its swelling.

Therefore, the world government ostensibly used the existence of the King's Shichibukai as an additional help, euphemistically called "destroying pirates with pirates". In fact, it is to set up an extra stumbling block to insert between the navy and ordinary pirates, so as to force a balance between the three parties.

In theory, the daily privilege of the king's Qiwuhai can freely carry out the same looting and destruction as ordinary pirates, just like the female emperor Hancock in the Qiwuhai, and her ships use this privilege as a tiger. They looted the merchant ships in the past to replenish their own country's materials, and the world government also gave them the greatest protection. The navy would not even ask about these looting incidents related to the other side.

But that's because the Empress herself is the emperor of a pirate country, so her robbery mission is to support her country, so she can naturally have no taboos. But people like Crocodile and Doflamingo who want to **** the country and become kings, and want to gain the support of the common people, naturally have to spend a lot of effort to establish a positive image of themselves.

But the same is that while enjoying the privileges, the King's Qiwuhai must also perform an obligation: once the World Government and the rest of the pirate forces go to war, they can issue a mandatory summoning order to make these strong people as the world's most powerful people. The government's direct combat power was thrown into the battle.

So in the final analysis, the position of Wang Xia Qiwuhai is just an extra thug position specially set up by the World Government to covet the influence and combat power of these powerful pirates. It is equivalent to the mercenaries trained and hired by the rulers outside the regular army. In addition to being used as a combat force, its biggest purpose is to warn those regular troops under him who may have dissent.

And for pirates, what is this title like?

Undoubtedly, for truly aspiring pirates, this is an existence full of shame and betrayal.

Even if they meet each other in the sea, they are mostly fighting, but after all, pirates are a common group. Some people want to break away from this group and become the lackeys of another group, so this is undoubtedly something worthy of scorn and contempt. The sense of human companionship As strong as the betrayal consciousness, the latter is even more acute. The irony is that the stronger the pirates, the stronger their will to pursue freedom and desire. After all, the era of the great pirate was started by Gol.d. Roger, the pirate king. He was a man who was truly admired by men in the whole world. Whether he hated him or praised him, he could not deny this. The man is currently the only king of pirates.

Because of the existence of the King of Pirates, the profession of 'Pirate' represents more of the aura of 'freedom' and 'freedom'. After all, for the small role pirates, robbing civilians is enough. But for those real big pirates, the best and most worthy treasure is always the onepiece left by One Piece!

"So, the ability to make those arrogant pirates bow their heads to the government can only be considered in terms of their 'ambition', right? Mr. Crocodile, I originally heard that you joined the Qiwuhai under the king. , I'm still wondering what your ambitions are. Later, I heard that there is a criminal gang called the Baroque Work Club in Alabasta, and I immediately understood. It seems that your purpose is this country. "

Shaking the champagne in the glass, Nami had no intention of saving face for Crocodile. There was no other reason. She was sure that Crocodile would not kill herself. After all, this ambitious hero also counted on getting Xia Lan and the protagonist's armor from him continuously, so as to increase the funds for his strength. If he didn't even have this kind of self-control, he would have lived in vain for so many years.

"You... who are you?!"

Almost gritted his teeth, Crocodile did his best to suppress that killing intent. In the mouth of this orange-haired girl, he felt as if he had been stared at coldly by a pair of eyes for all these years. Even if he knew that it was impossible, the other party's thoroughness that seemed to see through his nature still made him almost feel on pins and needles. .

"Me? I'm just a lost person who has suddenly fallen from a familiar world... So, Mr. Crocodile doesn't need to care. After all, I'm not interested in your ambitions, and Alabasta has nothing to do with it. The reason I maintain. Rather, since the king was so naive to keep your character in his own country, then his country was taken away by himself."

After taking a sip of the champagne, Nami also felt a sense of disappointment that could not be concealed. Yes, just like what she said, overnight, even she didn't even understand why, she just started from herself. The world of , came here, and even carried a heavy debt that would take almost a lifetime to repay.

"..."

Crocodile remained silent, and in fact his anger did calm down. That's right, the orange-haired girl in front of him is right. The reason why he wants to become the king of the Seven Wuhai is because he accidentally learned that the ancient weapon Hades is buried in Alabasta, and he really gave up for his own ambitions. His dignity as a pirate. But no matter what, he believes that he is a pirate in his bones, otherwise he would not despise Luffy who wants to become the pirate king, because in his opinion, this is the proof of Luffy's self-control. The person who wants to become the Pirate King must at least be someone stronger than him.

Since what the other party said is correct, there is no need to be angry about it. As for his speculation about Nami, he couldn't help but start to develop in another direction: in his opinion, the kind of loss Nami showed was definitely not a fake, and the other party used 'falling from a world'. Very intriguing. With her background that can quickly become the minister of a department directly under the World Government, Crocodile has already thought of a speculation that is particularly in line with the identity of the other party.

"...That's true... Then, let's get down to business."

After sorting out his thoughts, Crocodile wisely avoided the topic of the two before, and then said: "Xialan's sales are extremely hot in the new world, and the guy from Doflamingo has also called many times to hope It can increase the quantity of goods, so no matter how many weapons are produced in the future, we can eat them."

"Oh, this is really good news. After all, it is a new world where blood and bones are piled up like that, and weapons with excellent efficiency are welcome. Well, I also have my own requirements. According to the increase in sales, I hope that your sales will increase. The price has also been lowered. After all, there will be thousands of weapons in the future, and it is a pity that they can only be sold at auctions.”

He also calmly accepted the changed topic. Nami's words changed Crocodile's complexion again. He originally thought that Nami's price reduction was just a temporary thing, but now it seems that the other party's purpose is quite astonishing.

"Could it be... your plan is really..."

Even Crocodile had an indescribable sense of shock at this moment, because if the other party was serious, then this ambition was indeed too terrifying.

"Yes, Mr. Crocodile, what you want is this country, and maybe some other things that come with it. But my purpose is to let the weapons I produce occupy the new world in the next ten months or so. About 1% of total arms sales."

Looking at Crocodile in front of her lightly, Nami's tone was still calm, but this time, this calm tone clearly made Crocodile opposite her feel a quiver like a needle.

"Ultimately, under the accumulation of this flowing time, I want to pave the ladder with these weapons..."

"Take me back to the sky!"

(PS1: Hmm~~ the end of the negotiation~~ Congratulations~~ Monopoly and **** in the arms market~ and then accumulated more abundant capital)

(PS2: So, the B-frame is very important. You are just trying to get to the sky with your hard work, but for me, you are just returning to the sky with the steps of revival~)

antidote

Crocodile's feeling is undoubtedly very bad. As an ambitious person, the worst and most powerless thing is to find that his ambition has only become a stepping stone for another person's greater ambition. But he couldn't refute it, because he could see clearly that his plan to occupy the country of Alabasta and then look for the ancient weapon Hades might have been fine before, but now it's more realistic and intuitive than the orange-haired girl in front of him. After the plan, it will undoubtedly become quite illusory and ethereal.

Not to mention the necessary method for him to overthrow the Alabasta royal family, which is to fund and incite the rebel army on this land, and in order to effectively eliminate the possible rebels, so his plan is that the royal army and the resistance are likely to be destroyed. All the troops were destroyed in a concentrated manner. Although this could indeed win him a stable country, such a huge military damage would undoubtedly be a heavy blow to Alabasta's own national strength, even if it took more than ten years. May not be able to slow down.

And Pluto, so far, there is no concrete proof, but Crocodile himself got it through a piece of news. Although he has the consciousness to bet his own plan for this news, but in case he can't get Pluto, he will not be able to. Things not to consider. At that time, he can only do his best to repair the tattered Alabasta himself, and he needs to beware of other countries around him.

After all, except in special circumstances, generally speaking, the world government will not intervene in wars between countries in order to show that it will never offend other countries' regimes. And Alabasta, whose vitality has been severely damaged, is a vast territory. Although the surrounding countries are all friendly with it, in case Alabasta loses the fighting power of the King's Army and the rebel army at the same time, this friendly Attitude is hard to say.

On the other hand, Nami, her way of selling weapons to seize market share in the New World is undoubtedly extremely low-risk and unhurried. Xia Lan's excellent killing efficiency has made it an excellent reputation among the pirates who bite and kill each other in the new world. As long as they continue to provide weapons, they will not worry about not having buyers. Crocodile and Doflamingo seem to have made huge profits for themselves from selling these weapons from her, but are they not natural shields for Nami's business?

As long as no one can create a killing sword that is more effective and easier to use than Xia Lan, then in this cold weapon market, this kind of weapon specially used for killing will only occupy an increasing market share in the new world, of course Crocodile and Doflamingo both made a lot of money, but they only got some of the most useful and most useless money. But what Nami got was a market share that could really affect the situation in this world.

Crocodile is of course a strong person, and even stronger than most people, but this does not mean that he does not have the restraint and brain to distinguish between high and low. Although he is still gnashing his teeth, even the blue veins on his forehead are clearly visible, but this emotion is no longer anger or embarrassment, but an almost unbearable unwillingness.

If it's just that the two sides have different blood backgrounds, Crocodile will only disdain it.

If only the strengths of the two sides were different, Crocodile would only take it for granted. He himself agreed with this kind of natural selection that the weak should obey the strong.
