Chapter Ninety-Nine: Cooperation
"This won't work! It's definitely over the A class!" North resolutely rejected Rhodes. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"We don't need to go into much detail, just tell us the general layout of the dark world. Rhodes said unhurriedly.
North frowned: "If it's just a general pattern, it's not a high-level intelligence in the industry...... The main forces of the dark world are the three major forces, and these three forces are all real earth emperors in the dark world, and each of them is extraordinary. These three forces are Empress Gatis, the president of the Bounty Hunters Guild Ika, and the top minister of the special department of the world government, Desairu.
In addition to the three major forces, there are a total of thirteen forces second to them, among which the more well-known ones are Joker, Jerma 66, DRAGON, etc.
These are the forces that make up the top of the pyramid of the dark world, and they squeeze the vast majority of the profits in the dark world. ”
"What level are you at?"
Hearing Rhodes ask this question, North began to secretly think about the reason why Rhodes asked the question.
"You want to work with me?" said North, straight to the point.
"You haven't answered all three questions yet. Rhodes doesn't seem to want to dwell on anything else.
The flame that had originally ignited in his heart was extinguished by cold water, and North's entire aura faded: "Second only to the second layer." ”
"Last question, do you want to cooperate?"
When he asked this, North's pupils suddenly lit up, and he thought to himself, didn't he talk about cooperation for a long time, why did he go around so many bends before?
"How?" asked North, suppressing the joy in his heart.
"We need black market channels to buy all kinds of items and intelligence that are not available on the market, so I think you're the right person. Rhodes pointed specifically at North.
North asked, "It's easy to just cooperate like this, it's not a big deal, after all, there are not many pirates who have reached this kind of relationship with the dark world. ”
"Nope. The man on the left shook his head, his eyes fixed on the fireplace, "It's just a shallow relationship, we want to work together a little deeper, like we're one." ”
Merge with?!
To say that it sounds like this, if it is not good, it is a loss of both prosperity and loss, this feeling of being tightly tied to others in the future makes anyone feel uncomfortable, and North instinctively intends to refuse.
"Our goal is to defeat His Majesty Shichikai Doflamingo, who is both the king of Dressrosa on the surface and the joker the clown in the dark world. Chloe started throwing the bait.
North naturally took the bait: "What do you mean?"
"How about half a person?" Rhodes tempted.
"DO YOU THINK YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO COMPETE WITH JORKE THE CLOWN?" NORTH ASKED, WONDERING WHY RHODES HAD THE CONFIDENCE TO TAKE OUT DOFLAMINGO, WHO WAS ONE OF THE BEHEMOTHS OF THE DARK WORLD.
Rhodes said lightly: "Although the gap in strength is too big now, I believe you can see our potential, and we are not weak in other aspects, you can see from the latest news of the Whitebeard Pirates." After that, with your full help, two years, only two years will be it only for us to be sure that we will solve Doflamingo. ”
"It's too risky, and if you can't come up with any strong evidence, I guess...... I wouldn't agree. "North declined Rhodes' willingness to cooperate, although this is a good thing to say, once successful, North will quickly swallow up the Joker's underground forces, but what if it fails?
"I understand your thoughts, and if you have to prove it, I can tell you. Rhodes lit a cigarette, "We also have ties to the Revolutionary Army. ”
Revolutionary?
"Is that you the one from a week ago?" asked North.
Apparently North was asking about the Revolutionary's open-minded rescue of a group of people a week ago, Rhodes nodded and exhaled a puff of smoke, "Yes." ”
North's breath became heavy: "Since you are also connected with the revolutionary army, why did you come to us?"
"What do you think of our strength? Doesn't it look good? In the first half of the Great Voyage, we barely managed to get a place, but ...... Compared to the revolutionary army, it's too far behind, isn't it? With them, we are being slaughtered all the time. We need to find a partner who is equal to each other, and who works with each other without holding each other back. Chloe began.
"It's really safe to work together. "North is talking about security rather than fairness, and who would be involved in fairness in this world of the jungle?
Chloe knew that this reason convinced North, so he continued: "In that case, do you think our cooperation can be ......?"
"I will use my resources to assist you with all my might, and I will provide you with access to strategic supplies. North felt that the risk had been greatly reduced and that he could give it a go, "But what will you do then?"
"No, you misunderstood what we meant. Rhodes shook his head and threw the finished cigarette into the ashtray, "Our cooperation is not to ask for it from you, we are mutual." As we continue to grow, we will introduce you to customers, solve your opponents for you, and provide you with what you need. ”
North closed his sore eyes, and after a long time, he spoke, "Okay, I agree to cooperate." ”
"It's an honor to work together, my friend, North. Rhodes stood up and held out his right hand.
North also stood up and shook Rhodes' hand: "I hope the plan succeeds." ”
"Our fight, your endless material support, the defeat of Doflamingo is inevitable, but it will take a little longer, two years. Rhodes laughed.
"It's only been two years, and being one of the thirteen forces in the dark world, even if it's ten years, it's not like I can't afford to wait, I hope you don't let me down. North smiled tiredly, too.
"Very good, then we can plan it in detail. Chloe pushed his glasses, the corners of his mouth slightly curled, as if he had expected such an outcome.
……
"Phone bugs, we need ten. We bought a thousand of the latest muskets, and we need a hundred at the moment, and the rest will be shipped to the islands of Chambord, where we will pick them up. We also need your intelligence, all the information, that will help us make decisions in all areas and keep us moving forward......" Rhodes said what he desperately needed right now.
The Norsemen remembered in an orderly manner: "As long as you have money, these things can be bought, and we also have channels, and even the city that never sleeps has stock here, and soon I will be able to transfer the batch you need at present, and as for the later needs, they will be shipped to Chambord, and I can help you pay fifty percent of the cost first." As for the Intelligence Station, we have cast our net in the first half of the Great Voyage to keep you up to date at all times. ”
"What about the new world?" asked Rhodes.
"There are also there, but the information that has been learned is either not a big deal or it is already on the street, and it needs to be developed. North replied.
"Understood, these things can already bring us a strength increase, and we hope that you can build a giant warship for us in Chambord, we have a list of specific information, you will understand after reading it, the cost of the battleship will be paid by us in one lump sum. "Rhodes is planning for the battleship they have been building for a long time.
North stared at the person who recorded the list: "Yes, in the dark world, you can do anything with money. ”
Chloe took out a list and handed it to North, who took it and looked at it: "It may take some time to collect these metal, wood, and weapon configurations, as for the top shipwright, you can find a batch, plus the other materials you requested, the total price is more than 1.5 billion berry...... Do you have that much money?"
"You don't need to worry about the money, we can pay it all in one lump sum in Chambord, and what you pay for us will be paid directly with interest. Rhodes said very happily, he had already thought of his plan in Chambord, and after arriving there, it was not far from the top war, and he could take advantage of the chaos to loot a group of Draconians in exchange for a large amount of ransom.
"Since you said that money is not a problem, then I don't have to worry about it. Well...... It will take about two months to prepare and build these things. North thought that Rhodes might be in a hurry, so he said the approximate time it would take, hoping that Rhodes would think twice.
"Two months ......" Rhodes calculated the time in his mind, and he would probably arrive at Chambord in two months, so the timing was just right, and there was no problem, "It's totally okay." ”
"Then proceed, as for what you want now, you can have it ready in a day. ”
Rhodes put his hood back on: "I'll arrange for someone to transport the supplies away, then...... We'll take our leave first and call in later. ”
“…… Okay, goodbye. ”
"Goodbye!"
