"Hahahaha, how, how is it possible! Luffy, it's you thinking too much! ”

"That's, that's it! The time when the green algae head happened to meet Admiral Polusalino in the East China Sea before, I was also there, it was a complete coincidence! The same is true of Hawkeye! ”

"Luffy! How can you have such a super ridiculous idea? We're a well-known pirate on the wanted list! Next, I'm going to the East China Sea to make a big fuss! ”

"Hahaha......"

Nami, Sanji, and Frankie each explained in a panic. To be honest, their excuses are very sparse, and the performance at this time is completely like "there are no silver three hundred taels here", if it is a normal person, most of them will have the opposite effect if they can't explain it.

But Luffy ......

After a moment of silence, he nodded earnestly:

"Did I think too much? I see, I'm so sorry, everyone, as the captain of the ship, I have such doubts about you......"

"Ah, this ......"

Seeing Luffy so serious, Nami and the three couldn't help but feel a little guilty in their hearts and looked at each other, and Zoro, who was almost choked to death, finally escaped from the clutches of Sanji, who kept stuffing him with things, and gasped for breath.

"But in the end, it's all your fault! Didn't I say you, what do you do, what information you have, you must discuss it with me, the captain, first! ”

Luffy changed into that grinning look again, and his tone became unbeaten again, "Didn't General Polusalino say before, living on the sea, the water is very deep, you can't grasp it, you have to be the strongest me to ......"

"Phew!!"

"Boom!!"

"Tom!!"

"Boom!!"

"It's strange, why does my body move involuntarily......"

Looking at his fist, he didn't understand what the situation was, and he wasn't familiar with the members of this team, but he couldn't help but join the group that besieged Luffy, and Zoro looked puzzled.

But then he shrugged his shoulders: "Whatever......

He really likes the atmosphere of the team.

……

At the same time that Zoro participated in the lively "Captain Luffy" event for the first time as a newcomer to the "Straw Hat Regiment"-

The Holy Land of Mary Joy, the ancient city of Pan, between the powers. As the oldest member of the legal pirate organization of the Seven Martial Seas, Klokdahl, who was severely taught a lesson by Lilith in the previous incident of the Oolong Hades, and had some exchanges with Polusalino, took Polusalino's mission and his own ambitions, and met the five old stars face-to-face for the first time.

In Klockdahl's opinion, this room, which is almost equivalent to the power of the center of the world, although at first glance it is just an ordinary spacious and bright room, and there is not even a little luxurious and expensive decoration, but because of the existence of the five old stars, it looks very majestic and imposing.

If it weren't for the fact that he was taught a hard lesson, communicated with Polusalino, learned about the Navy's sensational grand plan, and became half of the participants and beneficiaries, Klockdahl would never have appeared here so easily.

Although he prides himself on being strong and strong in his heart, in front of these five people, he was no different from an ordinary rookie pirate, and he even felt involuntarily afraid because he knew more.

Klockdahl controlled his breathing and, led by Polusalino, came to the middle of the room between the powers.

Around a small round table, there are several sofas, and the tall five old stars are standing or sitting around.

Jaigorucia Satansheng, who was sitting on a single sofa with a black flat hat on his head and a cane, was the first to speak:

"'Sand Crocodile' Klockdahl, to be honest, your pirate life is not worth mentioning in our eyes. But as the first smart people to respond to the World Government's legal pirate scheme, we'd like to give you a chance to hear what you'd like to talk to the government face-to-face. ”

When he had finished speaking, without waiting for Crocodall to respond, he looked down at his cane again, as if there was something important on it.

"So, I should thank myself and your Excellency for taking the time out of me?"

Klockdahl subconsciously wanted to reach for his cigar, but after thinking about it, he gave up, and his outstretched hand turned to touch his golden hook, and said with an attitude of neither humility nor arrogance.

The fifth old star, who had a map birthmark on his head, leaned against the sofa, crossed his hands on his stomach, looked at Klockdahl with empty eyes, and did not answer his words:

"You contacted CP0 who was connected with you earlier, and said that you wanted to talk to us about the current situation of the Seven Martial Seas. Do you feel that you are no longer able to meet the terms you signed with the World Government? Or do you think that the emergence of an organization like the Injustice Alliance has made the threatened world government passively open your mouth? ”

"The seats of the Seven Martial Seas, the people who want to sit on the sea, and the qualified people, abound, and if the privilege of the Seven Martial Seas becomes a clause that can be changed by relying on the navy and the world government to be threatened, then it is not a privilege."

The grandfather of the Leandel Palace, the sword-wielding five old stars, said, "For the World Government, the emergence of the Injustice Alliance is indeed a headache, but if you are prepared to break your bones, then the power of the navy can still easily destroy and crush you pirates, as long as we give the order." ”

Of course, the words of the five old stars are not true, whether it is in the original plot of the pirates or in the current timeline, there is an alternative Doflamingo in the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty - he threatens the world government and navy through his special identity and special conditions, and obtains the most special position and privilege of the Seven Martial Seas.

And the so-called "nerve-wracking preparation" - if the world government can really make such psychological preparations, then the era of pirates will not open at all, and the group of pirates has already been wiped out under the uninterrupted background of the world government for 800 years, and only three or two big fish and small fish are left.

"The pirates on the sea will pursue you to the death, and even among the pirates, only the most reckless newcomers will ignore the loss and pursue the fish to die and vent,"

Finding that the reactions of the five old stars were basically not much different from the assumptions made by Polusalino when he communicated with him before, Klockdahl also found the feeling of being a pirate boss like a "sand crocodile" on weekdays, and said with a dangerous smile on his face:

"In this world, we pirates are the enemies of the world government and the navy, or there is a conflict? Could it be that the more dangerous Revolutionary Army and the mysterious NEW Navy are not taken into account by the world government? If all enemies were to be completely eradicated at all costs, then I don't think the organization of the Seven Martial Seas would have been taken into account by Your Excellency from the very beginning. ”

"When Admiral Polusalino first approached me and invited me as a representative of the World Government to become a legal pirate, he told me that a truly intelligent person knows how to protect his own interests, and can even find the common interests of both sides in the face of confrontation, and turn enemies into friends."

Klockdahl looked at Polusalino, who still looked frivolous between powers, and then looked around at the five old stars who had been sinking like water from beginning to end, not showing the slightest thought, "I agree with his point of view, so I became the first legal pirate to accept the recruitment of the World Government back then." And today, I have appeared in front of your Excellencies, and I also want to fight for the greater interests of myself and the world government as the first of the Seven Martial Seas! ”

"We do like to deal with smart people,"

The old man with golden hair changed his posture on the sofa and asked with interest, "So what is the greater benefit that you, who claim to be a smart person, can give to the world government?" ”

The other five old stars also looked at Klockdahl inquiringly, and they really couldn't think of anything else that Klockdahl could call for greater benefits to the world government in addition to the things that were currently required by the status of the Seven Martial Seas.

Strength? Although Klockdahl, who has the ability of rustling fruits, is considered a pirate master, even if it is only in the Seven Martial Seas, he is not the first person, let alone among the top powerhouses in the entire world. Just the naval headquarters under the World Government, marshals, admirals, and elite vice admirals, there are a lot of people who are enough to replace or super replace Klockdahl.

Power? Although Klockdahl thinks that the "Baroque Studio", a criminal association where he is the biggest boss, is hidden, the world government and the Navy headquarters are actually completely aware of it. The reason why it is not specifically targeted is simply because there is such a criminal organization with the nature of a snake, which can ensure order to a certain extent and avoid absolute chaos. Just as the kingdom of Jerma supported by the navy unified the underground black market in the North Sea, the world government is ready to support the forces that replace the Baroque studios.

And to put it bluntly, the Navy Headquarters and the World Government also think that the Baroque Studio can be wiped out at any time, so it is better to let the young people use the criminal blood here to temper it more - if they don't need it one day, they will be extinguished.

Klockdahl's mind came to the idea of what Porusalino had talked to him that day, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he slowly raised his hand to the east. The Five Old Stars followed his finger and saw only a wall.

Polusalino also looked at it cooperatively, and even tilted his head cutely.

However, what did the five old stars not expect was that Klockdahl was referring to the first half of the entire Great Voyage in that direction:

"The first half of the whole Great Voyage, that is, the absolute order of Paradise!"

"Kowa Ichinei ~ Klokdahl ~ Your joke today is really good ~"

The five old stars didn't speak, but Polusalino seemed to be unable to help it, and the yin and yang became angry, and even clapped their hands.

The locust-like pirates in the first half of the Great Voyage have always been a headache for the world's governments and navies. In order to solve this problem, the world government has also adopted many methods, such as setting up the system of the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty, such as making the grand fleet that has expeditioned to the new world into pieces, cleaning up the four seas, and culling these annoying miscellaneous fish from the source.

And although what Polusalino said at the beginning was that it could be called "King Eight Vajra" or something, or "King Twelve Heavenly Kings" or something, and even "King One Hundred and Eight Saints". But the Five Elder Stars would definitely not be as eloquent as him, and they finally determined the number of the Seven Martial Seas to be seven, which corresponded to the seven routes in the first half of the Great Voyage. And according to the provisions of the identity of the Seven Martial Seas, the scope of their legal plundering privileges is also the undeveloped areas of the world government, that is, those non-member countries, and fellow pirates.

Therefore, the other pirates are quite jealous and fearful of the Seven Martial Seas, and in their opinion, the world government is following their way of plundering merchant ships and civilians, encouraging these legitimate pirates to use them as prey and devour them to survive and grow.

- Damn these legal pirates!

- Why aren't they the legal pirates who plunder their fellow pirates?

Theoretically speaking, the emergence of the Seven Martial Sea system should indeed effectively suppress the continuous emergence of pirates in the Great Shipping Route. But although the ideal is plump, the reality is very skinny, whether it is in the original plot of the pirates or in the current timeline, the Seven Martial Seas are not so obedient, not only are they temperamental, but they are not even so active in hunting other pirates.

A few obedient and competent ones are very close to the Navy Headquarters, which is already so big that the world government wants to suppress it.

In the case that the Seven Martial Seas system can only talk about nothing, the order in the first half of the Great Voyage is basically the same as before, relying on the navy to die and work - so Polusalino's yin and yang weirdness towards the "big-talking" Klockdal at this time is reasonable in the eyes of the five old stars.

"When we speak, don't just talk, Polusalino."

The grandfather of the Leander Palace said to Polusalino.

"Oh, next time by sure~"

"I don't know, what is the best way for the 'Sand Crocodile' to achieve the absolute order of the paradise you are talking about?"

The blonde five didn't ignore Klockdahl as directly as the grandfather of Leander Palace, and although he didn't think so, he still asked.

Klockdahl glanced at the five old stars and Polusalino in turn, although he felt very ashamed and speechless, but at this point, he still took a deep breath and slowly said the lines that he had discussed with Polusalino before:

"Paradise is my home, and it depends on everyone to maintain it!"
