Chapter 303: Approaching the 5 Billion Bounty Club
The "Battle of the Broken" has ended, and finally ends with the defeat of the "Blackbeard Pirates" and the surrender of the "Whitebeard Remnants" to the "Davy Jones Pirates".
In the more than a year of his rise, David Jones has been stirring up the situation one after another, defeating many famous figures, and it is no surprise that he has become the focus of the world.
People began to speculate about how big the appetite of the "Deep Sea Hades" really was, and who his next hunting target would be?
"Beast" Kaido?
"Redhead" Shanks?
Wang Zhi?
"Old Seven Martial Seas"?
Even...... World Government and Navy Headquarters?
No, no, no, this may be too scary, too illusory.
Even the revolutionary army determined to overthrow the "Draco people" has achieved nothing for so many years, how could their group of pirates do such a big thing?
What's more, the "Draconians" are "descendants of the Creator", and I really don't know what this world would have become without them.
Quite a few commentators expressed their apprehension in editorials, and began to try to do something practical for the Navy Headquarters to exterminate the "Davy Jones Pirates".
However, the Navy Headquarters has turned a deaf ear to all comments from the outside world, and is still making small internal changes, and then recruiting and training new recruits and replenishing personnel.
Just kidding, if it were really according to those people, the Navy Headquarters would go to the "Davy Jones Pirates" now, and it would be the best outcome for both sides.
Time just ticks by.
In mid-July, David Jones, the "Hades of the Deep", returned to the center of his vast territory and power, the Dreadful Ghost Island, and was ready to overhaul the power structure once again.
Some people may think that "stability" is the most important factor in a separatist power, but David Jones does not think so.
Instead, he agrees that it is obviously more important to constantly destroy the sense of comfort and reorganize and divide the intricate factions under his command.
The "pyramid structure" that reformed before the "Silent War" with Charlotte Lingling has grown as the "Davy Jones Pirates" grows in power and the enemies change, so it's time to make appropriate changes.
In Davy Jones's eyes, his pirates should be like his tentacles, able to change as they please, whether soft, hard, elongated, or shortened......
Holding a quill pen filled with thick ink, he wrote a line, a circle, or a cross on the yellowed manuscript paper.
He would occasionally call "Sand Crocodile" Klockdahl and "Sea Man" and others to ask for advice.
It took him quite a while.
David Jones was thinking quite intently when he heard a tuk tuk knock at the door of the room.
He didn't look up to know it was "Iron Rod" Arrita.
"Come in."
Arlita walked in, closed the door with her backhand, and walked over to David Jones's desk, tucked her flower-adorned white floppy hat under her arm, and respectfully handed over a stack of paper rolled up at the corners with both hands.
"Captain, this is the latest bounty order issued by the Navy Headquarters regarding us." She said, "Please take a look." ”
David Jones, who has a bounty of 4.7 billion Bailey, is undoubtedly the first person among the living pirates today.
It is precisely because the bounty is so high that it has lost its original meaning, and he is not interested in how much the bounty has been raised for him by the Navy Headquarters.
As long as the bounty does not exceed 5 billion Bailey, it is just the icing on the cake, just take a casual look.
The pirates in history who have a bounty higher than him are none other than the "One Piece" Roger of 5,564.8 million Bailey and the "Whitebeard" Newgate of 5,046 million Bailey.
Both of them were big names who had become famous before the "era of pirates".
Maybe count Locks, but his existence is completely covered up by the world government, otherwise the bounty should be more than 5 billion Baileys.
As things stand, the Navy Headquarters would not rashly increase the Davy Jones bounty too much.
They don't want another member of the "5 Billion Bounty Club" to lose the original meaning of the bounty order.
Although it doesn't make much sense now.
After all, as far as the bounty of the "New Three Emperors" is concerned, what bounty hunter in the world is so greedy that he dares to hunt them?
Sure enough, David Jones briefly looked at the new bounty order, and his bounty rose to 4.8 billion Bailey, which is relatively small.
Compared with the search for Davy Jones's bounty, the Navy Headquarters was much more generous in offering bounties to Crocodale and Jinping, each of which increased by 300 million Bailey.
As a result, Klockdahl's bounty reached 1,881,000,000 Baileys, and the bounty of Jinping reached 1,638,000,000 Baileys.
Even if the captains of the "Whitebeard Remnants" such as "Fire Fist" Ace and "Immortal" Marco joined the "Davy Jones Pirates", the bounties of Klockdahl and Jinping were still extremely high.
In this stack of bounty orders, in addition to the three of them, there are also Marco, "Death Surgeon" Law, "Trick" Chloe, and "Thousand and Two Daoist" Bucky, all of whom have increased by 50 million Bailey.
In this way, Marko's bounty reached 1,424 million Baileys, Rowe reached 820 million Baileys, Chloe reached 776 million Baileys, and Bucky reached 745 million Baileys.
Although the Navy Headquarters did not say it explicitly, it was most likely for this "decisive battle" and raised the bounty for them.
Although Klockdahl, Jinping and Luo were not directly involved, their various maritime actions during this period fell in the eyes of the Navy Headquarters, which was very eye-catching.
It is worth mentioning that the bounty order for "Red Flag" Drake has been lifted.
It was probably the Navy Headquarters that noticed his abnormality and thought that he had been "cursed" after being exposed, and that he had become inhuman, ghostly, and that it was pointless to reward him.
It's just that no one has tried to rescue Drake either, and the "Red Flag" has been abandoned.
David Jones skimmed over the bounty orders and placed them in the corner of his desk.
He tilted his head and asked, "Arrita, have you made any progress on the intelligence gathering of the Don Quixote family?" ”
"I was about to report back to you." Arrita said, "After Doflamingo, the 'Tenyasha' publicly announced that he would join the 'Hundred Beast Pirates', Violet and I were in close contact with the intelligence agents of the Dressrosa Kingdom. ”
Violet "Violet" had recently reported to Yarrita, on the recommendation of Rowe.
And after a period of running-in, Arlita unexpectedly found that Violet was using it quite easily.
This "Violet" has a very strong ability to gather intelligence, and the "ability to stare at the fruit" can always exert unexpected effects, and the most important thing is that she is also very attentive and diligent.
All in all, Arrita is very fond of Violet.
"What we know at present is that Doflamingo has become one of the 'big boards' of the 'Hundred Beasts' Kaido, and his 'Plum Blossom' Torrebol and 'Spades' Pika have joined the 'Flying Pentaples', and other cadres have joined the 'real fight'."
"At the same time, Jack, one of the 'big kanban's', 'Drought', personally led Runyuan, Peggy Wan's sisters and brothers in 'Flying Five', as well as several 'real fights', to settle in the Dressrosa Kingdom."
"Doflamingo still has supreme control over the kingdom of Dressrosa, but all major matters need to be negotiated with Jack, who has the right of veto to represent Kaido's opinion."
David Jones snorted and shook his head. "Doflamingo's being forced by me to lure the wolf into the room, although he really doesn't have a better choice."
