"Looks like you don't know anything about this place. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Lady Emily looked at the Straw Hats in some surprise and sighed, "Xiao Laiya, you can help me explain it to them." ”

"No problem, Lady Emily. The brown-haired young man in the jazz hat nodded, cleared his throat, and said slowly to the crowd:

"The sea area centered on Hannah Barr was originally a three-way zone belonging to the World Government, and it was very chaotic, but later the Oselwald family used Hannah Barr as a sub-base for the first half of the Great Voyage, and in order to facilitate governance, they introduced a membership system. ”

"If you become a member of the Penguin, you will enjoy the protection of the Oswald family. When a merchant ship of the Registered Chamber of Commerce is robbed by pirates, it only needs to hand over up to half of the cargo or the equivalent of Bailey, and the pirates cannot harm the crew of the merchant ship, otherwise they will be hunted down by the Oswald family. At the same time, the robbed pirate group was obliged to escort the caravan to its destination and not let the merchant ship be robbed by the rest of the pirates. ”

"Sounds ...... Sounds pretty good. Usopp touched his chin and muttered, "In this way, the merchant ship will lose at most half of its cargo every time it sails." ”

"En. Nami nodded in agreement, "And most importantly, don't worry about being killed by those vicious pirates, by the way, Sherlock, what do you think of the former head of the Chamber of Commerce?"

Lady Emily subconsciously set her eyes on the sorcerer who had been sitting quietly beside her, but when her ocean-blue eyes met the deep dark eyes behind the lenses, Lady Emily's heart slammed, and her bloodless cheeks became even paler.

(Is this what you're really for?)

Sensing the slightest strangeness in this beautiful lady, Sherlock withdrew his gaze and gently pushed his glasses.

"That's a really hard thing to say, after all, pirates in the East China Sea are far less rampant than the Great Voyage, and I'm not used to seeing other people's logos on my things. ”

Saying this, Sherlock smiled at Lady Emily, "But if you want to become a member of Penguin, it must not be an easy task." ”

"Yes, the registrar pays a hefty dues to Oswald every year. ”

Lady Emily showed a helpless smile, which was matched with her weak look, which made me even more pitiful: "But if you don't become a registered chamber of commerce, you won't be able to survive in this sea area." ”

"It's all because of the registered pirates. ”

Xiao Laiya said: "After the pirates register as a member of the penguins, they will also be protected by the Oswald family, as long as they are in the sea area under the jurisdiction of the penguins, the navy will not be able to capture those pirates with penguin flags!"

"What?!" the crowd exclaimed.

"Is it a legal robbery?" Sanji lit a cigarette, "How does this sound like [Your Majesty's Seven Martial Seas]." ”

"You're right. Xiao Laiya nodded: "As long as the registered pirates abide by the rules set by the penguins and pay their dues on time, then they are equivalent to the Seven Martial Seas in this sea!"

"Why do you want to do this? Isn't that more detrimental to control?" Nami was puzzled, "Without the navy, who would sanction these pirates?"

"No, no, no, you've overlooked, Miss Navigator. The corners of Robin's mouth turned up elegantly, and he took a sip of coffee calmly.

"Without the Navy...... Sherlock nudged his glasses, and the lenses reflected two stunning white lights.

“…… Then why don't you let the pirates control the pirates?"

"Hah, the pirates are here to deal with the pirates??? "XN and the rest of the people looked confused again.

"Yes, use pirates to govern pirates. A certain spectacle nodded, and the sorcerer expressed his sincere admiration for the person who proposed this plan and implemented it.

"Just as where there is light, there is a shadow, and there is no end to the pirates on this ocean. In that case, it is better to control some of the slightly obedient pirates and give them privileges, that is, the so-called members of Penguin. ”

Sherlock continued to explain to everyone: "In this way, whether it is the Chamber of Commerce or the pirates, the pirates who do not have penguin members will definitely be gradually eliminated, and the rest are registered pirates, that is, the obedient pirates. ”

"These pirates have tasted the sweetness of legal robbery, and naturally they will not leave this sea area easily, but if they want to expand, they will inevitably clash with the rest of the registered pirates, and from then on they will be caught in endless infighting, and the requirement that merchant ships need to be escorted by robbery has intensified this conflict. ”

Saying this, Sherlock suddenly chuckled and asked Lady Emily, "And if I'm not mistaken, foreign pirates like us should be very unwelcome here." ”

The president of the Canary Chamber of Commerce hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "That's right, for pirates like you, those registered pirates are equivalent to bounty hunters, and they can go directly to the Oswald family to exchange for bounties, and they are indeed very, very unfriendly to foreign pirates." ”

"Hmph, let's see who will be more unfriendly!" the pirate hunter snorted, and a fierce battle intent suddenly ignited in his heart.

"Shhh

"Hey~Nami!" a certain long-nosed secretly pulled Miss Navigator's clothes and whispered, "You have to think about it, what should we do." ”

"Don't worry, I still have this judgment. Nami's smooth forehead was covered with fine sweat, and after listening to the popular science of the rest of the people for a long time, she had now cleared her mind.

Although this incident is said to be a misunderstanding, it can already be judged to be a robbery of the Canary Chamber of Commerce by the Straw Hat Pirates. The Straw Hats were able to obtain the general cargo from the Naboh as trophies, but at the cost of having to escort the merchant ship back to Hanna-Barr.

And listening to the meaning of a certain glasses, this escort is likely to be dangerous......

(We're not short of money right now, and Sherlock has 10 billion Baileys to splurge on, so there's no need to take any chances.) Nami thought to herself.

It's really commendable that she, a super money fan who wants money and doesn't want to die, would make such a rational judgment this time.

However, some things always backfire.

"By the way, what are you on board?" Luffy snapped his nose and asked Lady Emily casually.

Lady Emily smiled slightly, "It's beef, the finest beef from Stardew Island Ranch." ”

"Ahh ”

Sanji touched his chin and muttered, "I've heard the stinky old man say that Stardew Island is quite famous in the chef world." ”

"The meat and the crops on that island are superb, especially the beef, which is really ...... when made into steaks Namisan, Usopp, what's wrong with you?"

The curly-eyed cook rolled his eyes with a cigarette in his mouth, and was surprised to find that Nami and Usopp were desperately giving him a look, and following the direction indicated by the two men, Sanji looked back and found that the chin of a certain food captain had been soaked with saliva.

"Meat...... Steak ......" Luffy's eyes became misty.

(Oh~~~~) took in the expressions of the Straw Hats, and the corners of Lady Emily's mouth turned up slightly.

(I suddenly had a sense of foreboding...... X2 Nami and Usopziqi gasped.

"If you agree to my offer, accept the compensation, and escort the Nabo to Hannabal, then half a shipload of Stardew Island top beef is yours~"

"Oh??? really? Then I agreed! Hee-hee-hee, you're such a nice guy!Uh, Nami, Usopp, why did you fall under the table?"

"Luffy......! Big stupid!"

Knock!!! the sound of fists thumping into the skull.

"Babble! Na is terrible!" Chopper quickly ducked aside, and habitually avoided it.

"Hehe~~~" Robin held a cup of coffee and smiled silently.

"Uh...... Are you usually so lively here?" Looking at the stupid cargo captain who was being beaten by Miss Navigator turned into a demon king, the corners of Lady Emily's mouth twitched unnaturally a few times, and Xiao Laiya, who was standing behind her, looked even more confused, and said in her heart that this is the pirate group with a total bounty of more than 300 million?

The look of embarrassment on Sherlock's face flashed, and he was about to answer, when he saw a dark shadow leap into his seat.

"Meow~~~~" Besti stared at the two strangers curiously with a pair of bewitching blood-red cat eyes.

(Black cats?) How much do these pirates like to keep pets, in addition to having a tanuki, they actually have a little black cat.) Xiao Laiya looked at the cute kitten sitting at the dining table, and complained silently in her heart.

However, what was even more unexpected was that after seeing the blood-red cat's eyes, Lady Emily's whole person was like a lightning strike, her breathing instantly became short, her smooth forehead was covered with fine sweat, and her originally pale face became even more ugly.

"Blood...... Sanguine...... Blood-red eyes ......"

Her pupils contracted to the size of pinpoints, and the beautiful lady who had been talking and laughing with the Straw Hat for a while muttered in pain for a while, and then fainted under the horrified gazes of the others.
