Chapter 90: Burn them all
From 100 million bounty to 360 million.
This kind of bounty span is not common in the Navy's traditional bounty mechanism.
But in the end, it was finalized.
There are many reasons involved.
Sengoku's subconscious glance at Karp's cheek scar just now is a metaphor for the fact that Maude once shot Karp, which is also one of the reasons for the bounty increase.
But the most important thing is still the behavior of the Maude Pirates to attack the world member countries twice in a row.
This kind of crime is the reason for the high bounty.
Of course, the [facts] boasted in the newspapers are also many important reasons for the bounty.
For example, Maude reported on the single-handedness of thousands of pirates and soldiers, and for example, the ability to take out Don Quixote's cadres without much effort.
Whether boasted or not, as long as it is linked to [facts], these factors will become one of the conditions for the Navy to consider.
Karp put down the wanted warrant for Modena, which had a bounty of 360 million, and instead picked up Jaya's wanted warrant.
"30 million."
There are no obvious evil deeds, just as a member of the Maude Pirates, and with a strength that should not be underestimated, at the time of the first bounty, he was worth 30 million.
Sengoku glanced at the photo of Jaya who was brought over by Karp.
And that photo is also Jaya's bounty photo.
It didn't take much thought for Sengoku to see why Karp had come to the office with a photograph to look for him.
"What do you think?"
Before Karp provoked this topic, Sengoku took the initiative to ask.
These two old navies, who have walked side by side from the last era to the present, have an extraordinary tacit understanding.
Karp naturally picked up the conversation and said, "It has something to do with Jabba." ”
"The odds are really high."
Sengoku was not as crisp as Karp, clasping his hands against his chin, and looking down slightly at the photo of Jaya on the table.
"But anyway, I've seen some ...... in this new pirate group The shadow that I don't want to see, alas, every year and every year, there will always be some troublesome guys. ”
"Haha."
Karp laughed a few times, although there was no schadenfreude, but in the eyes of others, there was such a meaning.
Sengoku knows Karp well enough to care about Karp's untimely laughter.
"So, Maude...... It's this year's 'dark horse'. ”
Karp touched his chin and looked at Maude's bounty again.
The so-called dark horse is nothing more than the supernova theory that is customary every year.
Looking at the rookie pirates who have come out this year, except for the Cavendish Nova Pirates who have a reward of 150 million for the noble son of the pirates, Maude alone leads the way.
As a naval marshal, Sengoku didn't like this so-called supernova tradition very much.
This in itself is a spontaneous act of piling up the value of the pirate circle, but those news reports are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and they like to hold this kind of stinky feet.
In the end, the Navy can only follow the local customs, and see supernova as a label that defines the identity of a pirate.
"Karp."
Sengoku lined up the bounty orders and said in a deep voice: "A rookie pirate group with only four people, but the total bounty amount has reached 560 million and 10 Baileys, you know what this means. ”
"For newcomers, it's unprecedented."
Karp glanced at the bounty orders.
360 million Maud.
120 million Lafayette.
50 million Jim.
30 million Jaya.
And...... The last one will be omitted.
Sengoku looked up at Karp and said, "It should be said...... It's endless troubles. ”
Karp nodded.
However, his attitude towards this matter is obviously not as serious as that of Sengoku.
After all, depending on the location, there is no need to bear some pressure.
Compared to Sengoku who only thinks about the drawbacks, Karp feels that an existence like the Maude Pirates involves the normality of pirates attacking each other, which is actually not entirely a bad thing.
For example, in the two incidents committed by the Maude Pirates as soon as they entered the Great Passage, it was not only the member countries that suffered, but also countless pirates.
This is Karp's opinion of Maude by excluding the tricky gun factor.
Moreover, he came to Sengoku to confirm Jaya's identity.
"Sengoku."
Karp put Jaya's bounty order in front of Sengoku and said seriously: "Let the intelligence department work hard to confirm Jaya's identity." ”
“……”
Sengoku thought for a moment and finally nodded.
If Jaya is really related to Jabba, plus the relationship between Maud and the trick gun.
So, what they focus on is whether the Maude Pirates will use the name of One Piece in the future.
In that case, it's a big problem.
...........
The newspaper touting Maude flew all over the world.
After reading the content of this report, which is comparable to a hymn, many pirates called it shady.
What's more, it is directly concluded that Maud must have paid someone to write this report.
Because, they have never seen such a report of licking a dog.
But in any case, they will also face up to Maude's record, which is why they will always subscribe to newspapers.
And Maude's achievements are enough to shock them.
"Bacardi. Maude, what the hell is this guy coming about......"
"A newcomer, but with such strong strength!"
"Even the cadres of the Seven Martial Seas and Flamingo don't pay attention to it, and their behavior is really arrogant."
The heat brought out by Maud remains high.
It was also at this time that the latest bounty order issued by the Navy flew around the world.
When the pirates get Maude's latest bounty order.
"It's ...... to soar from 100 million to 360 million."
In the circle, there was a sensation.
Somewhere on an island in the Great Passage.
An extremely handsome man wearing a cowboy hat embellished with fluff, over-the-shoulder blond curls covering bangs, and a Western knife at his waist is holding Maude's latest bounty.
The handsome man, Cavendish Chief, is the captain of the handsome pirates with a bounty of 150 million.
He is a rising star pirate like a meteor this year, and he has done many great things since he went to sea, has many titles, and has both strength and beauty, so he has attracted much attention.
However, according to his own statement, among the many titles, he only likes the title of White Horse Cavendish.
Before Maude entered the Great Passage, almost all the front-line reporters focused their eyes on Cavendish .
Because Cavendish himself enjoys the spotlight, reporters can easily get a lot of information about Cavendish if they get the chance.
This is a special case that is rarely seen among pirates.
In addition, Cavendish's strength is indeed outstanding, so with the information flying in the sky, more and more eyes are gathered on Cavendish.
Many people already see Cavendish as a dark horse for this year's rising stars.
And he himself has prepared in advance to make a sensation in the world.
But all this, as Maud entered the Great Passage, came to naught.
"Abominable !!"
Cavendish almost crushed Maud's bounty order.
"Shady, this must be shady!!"
Shouts of envy, jealousy, and hatred resounded over the island.
"yes, it must be shady!"
Members of its pirates responded to Cavendish's claim.
One member even took out a newspaper with a needle poking countless small holes and angrily said, "It's disgusting to look at these praise words packed with paragraphs!" ”
"Huh?"
Cavendish glanced over and said coldly, "Didn't I already ask you to burn all the newspapers?" ”
"Uh, Captain, I, I'......"
The member holding the newspaper shrunk his head and stammered, unable to explain why.
"Burn it!"
Cavendish frowned, but he was also charming.
When the member heard this, he hurriedly lit the newspaper and burned it.
Cavendish crumpled the bounty in his hand, threw it into the fire, and burned it along with the newspaper.
Then, he turned on his horse and drew the Western knife from his waist.
"Do you see the town ahead?"
"See!"
"Attack the town, find all the newspapers, and burn them all!!"
"Yes!"
A group of pirates rushed to the town ahead.
At this moment, the [newspapers] in the town did not know that a catastrophe was coming.
.........
Chambord Islands.
A tavern.
"Hmm......"
An old man with a white beard sat at the bar, holding two bounty orders in his hand, and muttered in a low voice.
Inside the bar, there was a young girl standing with a cigarette in one hand, smiling at the old man in front of her.
