The border of Alabastan, a remote coast.

Townsend withdrew his gaze from the scorching desert and looked out at the turquoise sea.

He left Albana without attracting anyone's attention, nor did he say goodbye to Vivi, but through the channels of the Baroque workshop, he came to this rarely visited coast, accompanied by another man with long hands and feet, dressed in pink.

Or rather, shemales.

Former senior cadre of the Baroque Work Society, MR.2, imitator of fruit ability von Kre.

This person has a good reputation in the original work, and he has sacrificed himself to help the Straw Hats many times because of righteousness, which can be regarded as a great love and righteousness, and even made many readers fall in love with him. But affection and righteousness and good people are two different things.

As a member of the Baroque Working Society, a deep participant in the Klockdahl Principle Thinkout Project, von Clay is not brutal and bloodthirsty, but the innocent human life in his hands is not a minority, whether it is a pirate or an innocent civilian, von Clay does not have any psychological burden to kill.

However, this did not prevent Townsend from using him.

Townsend doesn't have any mental cleanliness, he doesn't naively think that the world is black and white, justice only lies in standing, and people who seem to be good people, because what they do in their position may be worse than the so-called bad guys, such as what the Navy did to O'Hara in search of Roger's heirs.

Another example is the heinous criminals that Luffy released from the great prison under the sea in order to save Ace.

Townsend also has his own position, and he will not judge whether what he does is just for the world, because the root cause of his actions is not for justice, but for profit.

So, for Towne, someone like von Clay was the best type to use, at least when trying to give von Clay the Dark Lord mark, the process was very smooth.

This man only wants profits, and he doesn't care who he is loyal to, anyway, when he was in the Baroque work club, he didn't know who his immediate boss was.

And what Tang Sen wants, of course, is von Clay's ability to imitate fruits, he has taken von Clay to secretly test, when von Clay turns into Townsend and appears in front of those civilians, those civilians can successfully generate the Dark Lord mark.

"From now on, you act with my face."

Townsend didn't look at von Clay, but said calmly.

"Playing the hero?" Von Clay sighed: "What a difficult task, you are now a prisoner with a bounty of 150 million, walking on the sea with your face on your face, I am afraid it will attract the attention of all the navy and bounty hunters." ”

"Don't worry about the Navy." Tang Sen said lightly: "I don't need you to mingle in the Great Voyage, your mission is the Four Seas, what you need to face is only the navy of the Four Seas Branch, and the navy of the headquarters will soon have no mind to pay attention to you." ”

Count the time, I'm afraid Ace has been defeated by Blackbeard.

And with Blackbeard handing over Ace to the Navy, the war that shocked the world is also coming, in order to deal with that war, the Navy Headquarters is already confident that it will not transfer the troops of the Four Seas Branch, where is there any spare strength to care about the life and death of those countries in the Four Seas.

"I have told you in detail what I need you to do, and I want you to lead the people who bear the mark in my name, help them overthrow the ruling class that persecuts the common people, and save the people living in darkness."

"Sigils?" Von Clay was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?" ”

Townsend glanced at the black mark on von Clay's arm and shook his head: "Don't worry about this. ”

"I'll tell you exactly what to do when the time comes."

Von Clay couldn't see the mark on his arm.

In other words, all the heat that has been given the mark of the Dark Lord cannot see this mark.

It seems to exist only in Townsen's eyes, and does not actually exist in the skin of the person who gave it.

"Okay." Von Clay thought for a moment and said with some hesitation: "However, even the countries of the four seas are not so easy to overthrow, right?" ”

"Although the strength of the four seas, whether it is a pirate or a navy, is far weaker than the great route, and I am also confident in my own strength, but I have to face not one or two people, but tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops."

"The Baroque working society is perfectly in line with your actions." "Moreover, you are not responsible for the fighting," Townsend said. ”

His mind moved, and a black mist appeared in front of von Clay.

"Just leave it to Daisy."

Von Clay couldn't help but shudder as he looked at the black mist that seemed harmless to humans and animals.

He'd seen with his own eyes how easily the fog tore apart MR.1's body, this thing was a monster, and von Clay couldn't imagine how to fight her.

However, compared to relying solely on fists and feet, the lethality of this thing is indeed completely different, and the armies of those kingdoms of the four seas, no matter how large they are, I am afraid that they have no meaning for this thing.

"Don't try to communicate with Daisy, and don't try to command her." Tang Sen reminded: "Although she doesn't understand what you're saying, she has a bad temper. ”

"I've already told her that she'll kill anyone who has offensive intent on you, and of course, if you want her to do something on your own initiative, it's best to contact me first-"

Townsend paused: "Call me if it's not urgent, if it's urgent. Give yourself a knife. ”

The person who has been given the Dark Lord Mark is naturally able to communicate with Tang Sen through the Dark Lord Mark, otherwise Tang Sen and Smaug would not have been able to communicate before, but this power is unilateral.

[You can unilaterally perceive the status and location of the reporter with the Dark Lord Seal, and you can communicate with it regardless of distance, obstacles, and language.] (Unable to cross the World Barrier)]

Tang Sen can freely perceive the status and position of the Indian reporter, and can also communicate with the other party freely and unblockably, but the other party does not have the authority to take the initiative to communicate with Tang Sen, and only when Tang Sen takes the initiative to establish communication with him, the other party's words can be conveyed to Tang Sen.

It is impossible for Townsend to keep in touch with the Dark Lord Mark possessed by von Clay all the time, he is not so idle, at most he can spare a little energy to mark the status of those important people, such as Vivi, such as Smaug, so as not to have an accident on the other side.

Therefore, directly changing one's status in an emergency is considered a way to inform oneself.
