125. Benefits that cannot be refused

Chiba couldn't believe her ears. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

He is the leader of Xiao, and now Karp wants him to join the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty, isn't this a trouble? Not to mention whether the world government will agree or not, just treat this matter as the idea of the world government, the problem is that his identity is so sensitive, and his every move involves countless things.

If he joins the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty, then don't mention anything else for the time being, what about the Xiao organization? The foundation of Xiao's establishment is countless ordinary people who have been persecuted by the world government, of course, it is some bullies and people in power who directly persecute them, but don't these people belong to the world government?

Even if it doesn't belong to the world government, that's what happens under the world government. Not to mention that there are still some members inside who were originally slaves of the Celestial Dragons, these people have long hated the World Government and the Celestial Dragons, and they can't wait to peel the skin, cramp, remove the bones, cut the flesh and drink blood, once Chiba joins the Seven Martial Seas of the King and becomes the "lackey" of the World Government, what will these people do?

They will definitely leave the Xiao Organization as soon as possible, and even cause civil strife in the Xiao Organization.

If this is a ploy by the world government to divide Akatsuki in this way, Chiba can only say - I want to blind your grandfather's heart!

No matter how much he loves power, he can't do anything that breaks his foundation, and he still expects Xiao to one day become a savior organization that protects countless ordinary people, so Karp's proposal seems to him to be simply ridiculous, and even whimsical.

But Karp doesn't think so.

"I invite you to join the Seven Martial Seas, not only my own proposition, Sengoku and Sora, the three of us have already discussed it very seriously, and this matter has three benefits for you. ”

Karp put the glass down, leaned back against the couch, and stretched out four fingers as thick as a carrot.

A few black lines floated down Chiba's head, "That's four ......"

Karp waved his hand indifferently, "It's not important, what matters is the three benefits I said." ”

Chiba shook his head helplessly, "Okay, three, since you are so insistent, teacher, then you can tell me what the so-called three benefits are." ”

"Hehe, then you've got to listen. ”

Karp grinned, retracted his finger a little smugly, and raised the first one.

"First of all, joining the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty, you are equivalent to having an official status. Everything you did before can be dismissed, and the wanted warrant about you can be temporarily canceled. Not only that, but there are a lot of people with wanted warrants in you, right, let others not talk about it, that little girl named Robin, you have done so much for her, and now there is a chance to cancel her wanted warrant and let her appear anywhere openly, you say, is this a benefit?"

Karp said with a smile on his face.

Chiba was silent.

Indeed, being able to have the wanted warrant temporarily lifted is indeed a great benefit. He didn't care about himself, it didn't matter where he wanted to go, but Robin couldn't, Robin was a bounty of nearly 100 million wanted by the world government after all, and Chiba couldn't temporarily cancel the wanted warrant for her when he was still in the navy, but he didn't expect to be able to do it after joining the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty.

Of course, it wasn't really canceled, but it was temporarily removed from the wanted list, and if a bounty hunter had their sights on Robin and captured him, he could still get a bounty. But the world government and the navy will no longer take the initiative to attack Robin, and this is the most important thing.

Robin has been wanted since he was eight years old, and it has been more than ten years, although her life has been better than in the original book because of the existence of Chiba over the years, but it is a big pity that her identity cannot be seen after all.

But as long as she joins the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty, it is equivalent to having the power to legally commit crimes, and Robin's wanted warrant will not be completely revoked, but she can walk in the world openly and honestly, without worrying about the pursuit from the authorities.

The same goes for the others, including the slaves, including the "prisoners" who were taken out of their prisons by Xiao, who were even able to return to their hometowns to have a look without fear of being caught by the World Government and the Navy.

Karp didn't even have to say the last two points, and this alone made Chiba's determination shaken greatly.

Seeing Chiba's thoughtful expression, Karp had a smug smile on his face, and then he slowly stretched out his second finger.

"Secondly, your purpose is to hope that Xiao can become an organization that oversees the world government, so that the world government will be more open, fair and just, so that more ordinary people can get a better life. Actually, it's not that difficult to do, but do you really think that you can do all of this by just fighting like this? Are you sure that Xiao's power will completely override the world government? Even if you can do it, can you guarantee that at that moment, your people will not want to replace the world government and become the next ruling class that only interests are paramount? I think you must be unsure.

Therefore, rather than continuing hostilities, it is better to reach a state of peace for the time being, and to establish a more equal cooperative relationship through consultation. Akatsuki can exist as an overseer and achieve your desired goals at the lowest cost. In the process, you will not have to worry about anyone's attack, as you are already a legitimate presence permitted by the World Government. You can develop with peace of mind in the event of a day when the world government goes back on its word. How's that, does this one make your heart flutter?"

Karp has never been a person who is good at words, and letting him be a lobbyist can be said to be completely petty, but he has been a lobbyist several times, and Chiba can't refuse.

It can only be said that he knows Chiba too well, and there are Sengoku and Sora as staff officers behind him, and the three of them are old and sophisticated guys to deal with Chiba alone...... It's simply cheating, okay?

Chiba was stammered when asked, and he didn't know how to refute it at all.

However, this is not the end, looking at Chiba's blank expression, Karp slowly stretched out his third finger.

"Finally, if you are willing to join the Seven Martial Seas, regardless of whether you and the World Government can reach an agreement in the end, the Navy will claim to give you a right. That is the power to legitimately execute wicked people who persecute ordinary people. It doesn't matter what his identity is, even if he is a great nobleman, or even the king of a certain country. As long as you have full evidence, you can judge them yourself, and the blame on the part of the world government will be borne by the navy for you. And we can provide whatever you need, weapons, money, fruits, whatever you lack, the navy warships can provide. How about phone bugs? How about providing you with 3,000 phone bugs of all kinds?

In short, that's why I'm going to say that you have to join the Seven Martial Seas of Your Majesty. Aren't the above three points enough for you to join the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty?"

Isn't it enough for you to join the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty?

This question left Chiba completely speechless.

If that's not enough, he's too greedy.

Looking at Karp's triumphant expression, Chiba felt in his heart, knowing it with affection, moving it with reason, tempting it with profit, interlocking layer by layer, breaking his psychological defense line step by step, so that he couldn't refuse from the beginning, and in the end, he couldn't even give birth to the idea of continuing to refuse for half a point.

It's such a good plan, and it's impossible to shake your head.

There was silence in the room, and Karp tapped Jiro's leg with a triumphant expression.

Chiba had a struggling look on her face, and she was struggling fiercely in her heart.

It took a long time for him to let out a long breath.

"This thing...... I can't just make a decision about that, I have to think carefully about the future and the foundation of Akatsuki. ”

"Of course. ”

Karp said with a grin.

"You can think about it casually, I didn't force you to let you join the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty, I just made such a suggestion, how to choose is your own business. ”

Eventually, Karp stayed here, and until Chiba made a decision, he wouldn't leave for a while.

Chiba, on the other hand, went back with Karp's suggestion and called all of Akatsuki's higher-ups back. Of course, Hiryu can't come back so quickly, but they have phone bugs, and they don't have to worry about being tapped at all, because there is nothing to do about it.

When Chiba told everyone about Karp's proposal and the three benefits he had mentioned, everyone fell silent.

Robin, Yixiao, Sister Monet, Kella, Hiriu on the other side of the phone bug, and Hawkeye who doesn't know where to go, these people are all the high-level executives of Xiao at the moment, and Xiao's every move is closely related to them, of course, Sister Monet Sucrose and Kella actually don't have this right, but they, as Robin's assistants, can just listen here.

There was silence in the room, even across the phone bug, and everyone was desperately digesting the news that Chiba had brought back, so much so that everyone didn't care to talk at all.

After about ten minutes, Robin slowly spoke.

"In other words, if you become the king of the Seven Martial Seas, brother, everyone will have a legal identity, and you will be able to rely on this identity to act, and you will no longer have to worry about the wanted by the World Government...... Aren't all of you wanted?"

The eyes of the others looked over, and in the face of everyone's slightly questioning gazes, Chiba nodded silently.

He remembered Doflamingo in the original book, because of his status as the Seven Martial Seas, even if he stole the throne of a country like Dressrosa, the world government didn't care, and because of his dual identity as the Seven Martial Seas and the Celestial Dragons, even if Luffy and others wanted to uncover his conspiracy, the navy and the world government would have to help cover up their crimes. It wasn't until the lid couldn't be covered in the end that he had to ban the identity of his king Qiwu Hai and put him in prison.

It can be said that His Majesty's Seven Martial Seas are equivalent to the privateering license on the earth, and it is an officially recognized criminal identity, as long as there is such an identity, it is the real fearlessness of the sea, even if some people in the navy hate them and want to die, there is nothing they can do.
