Chapter 0.51: A Gift for the Mouse.

The large ship of the Morgan Bounty Hunters stayed in town for another three days.

The main reason for staying here is to count the people who pay the insurance and all the property of the family.

It's a laborious job, and Morgan has Arkin running around town to collect money, and this is where he grew up and grows up, and he knows it well.

Because of the endorsement of the record of defeating the five large ships of Krik, no one was afraid that they would slip away after receiving the money.

There are more than 1,000 households in the town, and according to the family unit, it actually collects more than 10 million Baileys.

That's a lot of money, and it's a big encouragement to everyone on the Endeavour.

There were also a large number of goods, and this time the money earned was at least enough for the entire group of Morgan's men to eat for a year.

The sails were raised, and the town dock was crowded with people, and more than 1,000 people gathered in the harbor to bid farewell to Morgan.

Morgan stroked Ah Jin's head and squinted, "Will you be reluctant?" ”

"No, it won't." Ah Jin turned around silently and pulled a blue-gray striped turban so low that it was impossible to see his expression.

Two of Kleik's five large ships were left for the islanders, and the remaining three were taken away by the crew.

These ships were larger than Morgan's Endeavour, and they were piled up with all kinds of looted treasure from the Crane Pirates, four or five times more than the sum of Morgan's harvest this time, and they were still waiting to be distributed.

……

Inside the mezzanine of the Endeavour, there is a completely dark room, where there is no sun all year round, and the temperature is much lower than outside.

Inside, there are wooden plank beds and large clay pots.

"The weather is getting warmer, and the corpses of Crane and Balu can't be stored for a long time, the corpses will stink and rot, and most importantly, cause a plague, so that our entire ship will be completely destroyed!"

An older crew member told Morgan that he looked to be in his forties, with a rickety build, and that he had been a mortuary before scavenging.

Morgan arranged for him to work in the morgue in the cabin, which was relatively well paid and not dangerous.

Kerrick's body was perched on one of the planks, and Morgan had found his wanted warrant, worth thirteen million Baileys and Baru's five million Baileys.

I once remembered that in the original comics, Admiral Crane was worth 17 million Baileys, but I didn't expect that after more than ten years, it was only 4 million Baileys.

Thinking about it, he is only in his thirties now and is at his peak, both strength and courage are at the strongest, and after more than ten years, he is already in his forties, and he is in the decay period of his life, and it is reasonable to offer such a reward for many years.

Morgan was ready to hand it over to the Navy, but there was still a long way to go, and the body was too difficult to preserve.

"If it doesn't work, I cut off his head and pickle it in a jar, and I specially prepared the salt in the warehouse." Morgan commanded.

He came this time mainly to take Gao Wen to study the steel alloy armor on Krik's body, if Gao Wen groped out to forge the configuration, if the energy was produced, in the near future, they would have a group of powerhouses worth tens of millions.

The corpse was swollen and stiff, and Morgan himself wore gloves and laboriously removed the golden armor from Kleik's body.

He didn't want Gawain to touch these jobs, the swordsman's hands should be cleaner, and someone needed to take on these dirty jobs.

"What about those captured pirates?" Gawain asked, crouching in the corner, pinching his nose with one hand.

"How many are there?" Morgan Road.

"Ninety or so."

"It's quite a lot, let's get through it first, and in a few days, I'll teach them a lesson in person." Morgan said after a moment's thought.

Classes, as the name suggests; Quite simply, pass on your own ideas to them, and the method is MLM-style brainwashing.

Of course, no matter how good the idea is, some people don't believe it, and Morgan certainly doesn't think that he can be omnipotent like a god, it's a kind of screening, and he just needs to leave the useful ones behind.

For the next few days, Krik's crew were locked up in a dark room with no food and only water.

In fact, these people who surrendered and were captured were not ruthless characters, and they were even more angry by such a concern, and at this time, they were willing to let them go.

On the seventh day of despair, Morgan came.

He was wearing a simple plain white shirt, a pair of washed white jeans, and his short blonde hair was tied back at will.

Ah Jin, who is following, is also by his side, and although it can be seen that Ah Jin is absolutely loyal to him, it is not a bad thing to learn more and learn new ideas.

In the past few days, Morgan has talked a lot with Ah Jin alone in private, and getting on the boat is a matter of course.

His personality is also the same as in the original book, taciturn, cold and untamable, but if he is absolutely agreeable, he will be willing to sacrifice everything, including his life.

Morgan has high expectations for him, and wants to nurture him well, which may be of great use in the future.

The likely content of the first day is simple, nothing more than a pyramid scheme to care for each other, love each other, and build a sense of commonality.

Then they started beating each other over and over again, brainwashing each other and so on.

For more than half a month, the sea route has been calm, but no pirates have been encountered.

Morgan also taught these people for more than ten days in a row.

After seeing them all alone, Morgan placed them on the large ship of Crek, and the men sailed alone, far after the Endeavour.

There were all the supplies and treasures on board, and there were also many additional small boats for emergency escape, each with a large bag of food, fresh water and corresponding treasures.

Morgan's meaning was simple, like the note he left on the emergency boat - he didn't force anyone to stay, it was all voluntary, and if they wanted to live their own lives, there were boats and enough treasure to spend a while, and they could live their lives.

The Endeavour was more than two hundred meters away from the large ship of the Kleik crew and was completely unattended.

These people were all moved at first, and none of them touched the money on the first day.

After making sure that there was really no one watching them, some people who were unwilling to give in made up their minds.

After all, they are used to being free, and a bloody career at sea is what they pursue more.

Under Morgan, they were not allowed to kill or set fires, nor to commit adultery and plunder, and they were not free at all.

Taking advantage of the night, small boats were lowered from the big boats in twos and threes and disappeared into the darkness.

Morgan is certainly not a virgin, he is just sifting through the people he needs according to his previous plan.

More people chose to stay, they believed in the idea of worshipping Morgan, and a fire in their hearts had been ignited, which was difficult to extinguish in the atmosphere of full struggle.

These days, Morgan has been at the helm himself since putting them on another ship.

Oland was sent underwater to do some cleanup.

He won't leave hidden dangers for himself, doing stupid things like sending money and treasures.

These people who have run away, even if one of them has a grudge against themselves, can become a threat in the future.

It is better to erase in the bud.

Less than 100 meters after the boat had gone out, a large hole was cut in the bottom of the boat, and a thick dark blue arm dragged it under the water until it drowned.

None of those who fled.

The treasure was brought back to the Endeavour's warehouse for safekeeping.

Except for Morgan and Orange, no one knew that those who fled would never meet them again.

……

The 16th branch of the Navy is located in the middle of the East China Sea.

After a few more days of sailing, Morgan looked at the markers of the sea map and finally approached.

Krik's head was pickled like bacon, and it was still recognizable.

If you remember correctly, there is an official here called a rat.

I don't know if he's a colonel now, but anyway, it's Morgan's gift to him.

He didn't know the character of the others, but this rat was definitely a good friend.

Short-sighted, mercenary, and deceiving, this is his forte.

Morgan can take advantage of this to tie up with the Navy, and the benefits will naturally be abundant at that time.

The gates of the sixteen branches were built very luxuriously, and it seemed that there was no shortage of scavenging people's fat and ointment.

After stuffing some benefits to the two guards standing guard, Morgan licked his face and said, "I want to find Chief Rat and report something." ”

The guards didn't want to look at Morgan, even though he had three large ships behind him.

But after receiving the benefits, he immediately showed a knowing smile, patted Morgan's shoulder and said with satisfaction: "You wait here, I'll report to you." ”

After about ten minutes, a sailor returned to his post and became expressionless, Morgan went up to ask, and the other party said impatiently: "Captain Mouse is busy, I don't have time to see you." ”

Morgan was not angry, and quietly stuffed some favors, so that two or three times he was invited to the mouse's office.

Asking people to do things has always been like this, and Morgan has long been surprised.

Bringing the gift and the box containing Crik's head, Morgan reached inside.

Perhaps because he had heard of Morgan's generosity before, the mouse did not see each other as soon as they met, shook Morgan's hand cordially, and quietly put the gift back on his desk.

"You're looking for this official to approve the legal license of the bounty hunter, to be honest, this certificate is not easy to handle, and it is quite troublesome to do!"

Morgan frowned slightly, and then quietly hid the past, he never knew that bounty hunters still needed legal licenses, which was really funny.

Knowing that the Navy is corrupt, I didn't expect corruption to be so.

No wonder in the world of One Piece, bounty hunters are extremely rare.

I don't know if it was legal for Zoro to hunt pirates in the first place, but it just so happened that since he came, he just stopped by the way.

The last thing Morgan lacks now is money, and what he wants to get through is relationships.

"Yes, yes, yes." Morgan nodded flatteringly.

"The little one is here for the hunter's license, and I have always heard that Captain Rat is benevolent and unfair, and he carried some gifts before he came, so please don't see it."

The mouse nodded, enjoying the well-timed slap, opened the wooden box, his face changed greatly, and his body shook a few times and fell off the big chair!

"Is this your gift to me! Did you know this is the Navy Branch? ”

The rat was furious, he was a good captain, but he had never been on the battlefield in person, he had been relying on his whiskers to pat the horse, and he had gotten to this position with flattery, and the terrifying head of Crane in front of him really frightened him!
