"Acting?"

Klockdahl was stunned for a moment.

"If you don't want to get the attention of the world government, then your plan needs to continue to be carried out and lead to that doomed end."

Townsend said calmly: "At the time of the life and death of the country, there are heroes who come out of nowhere, defeat the big bad who are trying to subvert the kingdom, and make the whole country peaceful and beautiful again - everyone loves stories like this, doesn't they?" ”

Klockdahl's face was ugly: "So, you want me to be the big villain, and you come to be the hero?" ”

"You're just doing what you're meant to do." Townsend reminded.

Klockdahl understood Townesg's plan, and although he was upset, he quickly focused on weighing the pros and cons.

"You want to gain the prestige of the people of Alabastan by defeating me, but it doesn't make sense." He said: "As I said before, if you don't completely cut off the royal power of this country, even if you become a so-called hero, you will not be able to control this country." ”

"You're not the kind of person who only needs the gratitude of the people to be satisfied, right?"

"Of course I'm not." Tang Sen smiled: "Don't worry, if the plan succeeds, I will not only gain gratitude, but millions, and I will never betray my believers." ”

"As for the kingship - the current king is really not fit to sit in that position, and I think his daughter, Neferutali Vivi, would be a very suitable successor."

Klockdahl's eyes narrowed slightly.

It was his habitual reaction when he was thinking, and in fact, Townsend had this habit too.

"I see." He said, "That's why you hang out with the Straw Hats, and you've been planning since then?" ”

"You want to take control of the country by controlling Vivi?"

"Control is a bad word, and I'd rather call it help." Townsend repeated, "I want to take control of the country by helping Miss Vivi. ”

"As far as I know, Neferutali Vivi is an extremely naïve woman." "How do you guarantee that she will be able to do what you want when she becomes king?" The things you want to do probably contradict her character. ”

"What do I want to do?" Townsend burst out laughing, "Mr. Crocodall, you have been hiding in the shadows for so long that you have a habit of putting your position in the shoes of the bad guys. ”

"But. Wouldn't it be just to want to subvert the world, to let those who were oppressed by the world government, pirates, and even the navy and live in darkness stand in the light again? ”

Klockdahl opened his mouth, suddenly feeling a little speechless.

He clearly realized that the person in front of him did not think like this at all, and this person's purpose could never be such a hypocrisy as saving the world, and like himself, this person was a careerist.

He has only one purpose, and that is power.

To subvert the world is nothing more than a more supreme authority.

But—

"It's a good angle." Klockdahl also laughed: "Acting in the name of justice? Those naïve idiots will love this reason. ”

"Now that you've got everything planned, do it." Klockdahl said: "Anyway, the identity of the Seven Martial Seas was originally just to seek Alabastan, but now there is a bigger goal, and if you give up, you will give up." ”

"I'll stand on the bright side and continue to carry out the Ideal Country Project, but it's a pity that the senior cadres of the Baroque Workshop have died at your hands, and the others don't matter, but if you want to completely arouse the rebels' hatred for the king, you also need to have MR.2 that imitates the fruit——"

The corners of Tang Sen's mouth rose slightly: "You can realize this, of course I am also aware of it." ”

"Although I had to kill the cadres to win Vivi's trust, von Klay survived, and I had already sent him to the front."

The corners of Klokdal's mouth twitched slightly: "Why are my people so easily rebelled by you!" Nicole Robin, I don't think Von Clay is someone who can be rebelled so easily. ”

"It's just a little trick." Tang Sen fooled the past: "Now everyone is in a gang, how can there be a counter-argument." ”

Klockdahl took a deep breath.

"Forget it, they're all useless guys anyway, as long as they have money, the last thing they need in this world is their subordinates."

His expression became serious.

"Well, there is one last thing, although it doesn't matter if you don't say it, but since you have decided to cooperate, in order to show your sincerity, it is better for me to take the initiative now."

"After all, for someone like you, this must be in mind."

He said slowly: "Aren't you afraid, will I go it alone after I come out?" Anyway, as long as I control you, I can also use your abilities, so why should I cooperate with you? ”

Townsend raised an eyebrow and laughed.

"Mr. Crocodall is surprisingly honest."

Townsend knows what the other side is thinking, and this is indeed the most important point of cooperation between the two parties.

Neither Klockdahl nor Townsend would base their cooperation on trusting something as unreliable.

And Klockdahl absolutely knew that if this point was not resolved, everything he said before would have no meaning, of course, this was also because he recognized Townese's wisdom and knew that Townsend had definitely thought of this, so he took the initiative to bring it up.

On the one hand, it was to express the sincerity of his cooperation, and on the other hand, he also wanted to know what means Tang Sen planned to rely on to maintain such a cooperative relationship, and if he took the initiative to propose, he still had room for negotiation.

"Mr. Crocodall's strength is much stronger than mine, and although I am confident that I can protect myself even if you do it to me, if you don't follow the plan and make small moves behind your back, I will be in trouble."

"So, I'll strip you of something as a price for not betraying me - Mr. Crocodall should be okay with that, right?"

Klockdahl narrowed his eyes and said, "What's that?" ”

"Rest assured, it's not something important, it won't diminish Mr. Crocodall's power, nor will it limit your freedom." Townsend communicates the space of consciousness, and a stone box appears in front of Klockdahl.

"What you have lost is nothing more than insignificant. It feels like you'll never be able to taste the food again, you won't be able to smell anything anymore, you'll never feel the pain again. ”

"Of course, I can't feel the pleasure."
