One Piece: Fist of the World.

Chapter 244: The Thirteenth Division of the Lots Pirates
A month goes by in a blink of an eye.

Green Bit
The buildings that were destroyed by Katakuri's attack have been repaired.

After Rod killed the Four Emperors Big Mom, his fame reached a new peak, especially Morgans, which has been publishing news related to Rod's Pirate Group almost all the time in the past month.

As the Rod Pirates became more and more famous, more and more people came every day and asked to join the Rod Pirates.

Of course, some people wanted to join in, and naturally there were also people who wanted to kill Rhodes and become famous in one fell swoop.

However, most people were not even qualified to meet Rhodes, and could not even pass Weber's test, and eventually became coolies in the large-scale construction of Greenbit Base.

Greenbit Central Manor
"Baquan Rod, can we still consider you as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea?"

"Of course, I am a partner of justice!"

Rhodes spoke to the Den Den Mushi in front of him, with a look of justice written all over his face.

"Don't say such hypocritical words. You are at the top of the new world after all."

The serious voice of the Five Elders came from the phone.

Ace the Fire Fist has confirmed that he has joined the Whitebeard Pirates and has been stripped of his title of Shichibukai. Katakuri, one of the former generals of the Big Mom Pirates, has replaced him and become the new Shichibukai.

One month after Big Mom was killed, even though the World Economic Forum reported and promoted Rhodes' identity as the new Yonko, Rhodes never responded positively, but insisted on his identity as Shichibukai.

After cp0 contacted and tried many times without success, the Five Elders finally called directly.

"I just want to confirm one thing, what is your purpose?"

"Purpose? You know, I just like money."

Rhodes waved his hand and took the tea and snacks brought by baby-5.

"Rather, it's what you want me to do."

The Pirate Emperor, a person with such a status can no longer be simply regarded as a pirate.

The power he possesses exceeds that of most kings in the world, and even the world government has to take him seriously.

“We need the new world to remain stable.”

The voices of the Five Elders came from the phone.

No matter how many pirates are wreaking havoc in this world, even if the Revolutionary Army has been creating chaos and triggering rebellions in many countries in recent years, the World Government is still the most powerful force in the world, and its background is unfathomable.

After all, they are the true rulers of this world, and they have ruled this world for eight hundred years.

And for the world government, the most important thing is stability!
The world government that controls the entire world needs a stable environment. For them, a stable environment means stable rule.

"Whitebeard is only interested in playing the pirate game, and Red Hair doesn't have much ambition. Only Kaido has always been ambitious and wants to do something big."

Rhodes analyzed the current situation of the New World for the Five Elders.

Although the Five Elders knew the situation in the New World better than he did.

"As for me, I just want to make money. As the old saying goes, harmony brings wealth. I don't want this sea to be in chaos. Isn't it enough for everyone to make money peacefully?"

After looking through the materials Robin handed over, Rhodes made his own requests to the Five Elders.

"It's just that the New World is so small. If I want to make more money, I will have conflicts with the other four emperors. This is definitely not the situation you want to see."

"So, if my security company is to expand to all corners of the world, I need policy support from the world government."

"Security company?"

The Five Elder Stars in charge of this communication is the God of Finance, Izambaron V. Nasujuro Sei.

After hearing the conditions proposed by Rhodes, his brows furrowed slightly.

CP0 had already reported the relevant information to the security company founded by Baquan Rod.

In the opinion of Izambaron V. Nasujuro, this so-called security company is no different from the protection fees collected by pirates, it's just a change of name.

“I was also born in the Four Seas. Although there are many naval branches in the Four Seas, the crackdown on pirates is not strong enough. The power of the navy alone is not enough to guarantee the security of various countries and maintain the stability of this sea.

Not to mention, there are many corrupt people in the navy. It is precisely because of the endless emergence of such corrupt navy that there are more and more pirates on the sea. "

"In fact, the role of the navy is to maintain the stability of this sea."

"As far as I know, over the years, as the number of pirates has increased, the navy has become stronger and stronger in order to curb the power of pirates. The World Government has to spend a lot of military funds every year."

"As a partner of justice and one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea under the World Government, I also have the obligation to maintain the stability of this ocean!"

"So, let my security company expand to all corners of the world. As long as the local people pay a little bit of security fees, I will protect the safety of these places and fundamentally cut off the appearance of pirates. In this way, there will be no need for so many navies, and the World Government can also save a lot of money."

"After all, my security company doesn't need the world government to pay for it."

On the other end of the phone, Nasujuro Sei crossed his arms, tapping his fingers on his arms, his head racing as he thought about Rhodes' request.

The world government is not rich either.

Although this world is divided into four seas by the Red Earth Continent and the Grand Route, communication between the four seas and the Grand Route is not convenient, resulting in uneven development levels in various parts of the world. However, with the development of time, the scientific level of the entire world is still steadily improving.

Especially in recent years, science has developed rapidly, and coupled with the words said by the Pirate King when he was executed, the number of pirates has been increasing in recent years. In order to cope with this situation, the World Government has had to increase its naval spending.

Therefore, the number of navy has greatly increased compared to before, and until now, it feels like it is too big to be eliminated.

If Tyrant Rod can really curb the power of pirates to a certain extent and make the sea calm again, the annual funding allocated by the World Government to the Navy can be reduced.

In this way, the power of the navy can also be curbed.

Thinking of those officers in the navy who dared to question the World Government, Nasushiro Sei made a decision.

"Okay, we agree to your request!"

"Just change the name of your security company."

"Then let's change the name to Fist Security Company."

Rhode answered casually. Names don't matter, and he's not good at naming.

He only cares about practical benefits.

With the permission of the World Government, his Fist Security Company will open all over the world.

After hanging up the phone with the Five Elders, Rhodes looked up at his companions in front of him.

"You all heard it, right? Now it's time for us to expand across the board!"

“It’s going to be busy again.”

Neru took a look at the nautical chart in front of him. This was a map of the world that they had compiled through various channels, and the locations of most of the islands were marked on it.

"We need to expand the security company and recruit new members. The current staff is not enough."

Luo added.

After Rod defeated Big Mom, over the past month, dozens of pirate groups came to join them, and a dozen ignorant pirate groups came to challenge them. Now most of these people have been recruited by them. Selecting some of them to join the security company should be able to support them in completing the layout of the entire new world.

However, if Rhodes wanted to expand the security company to the four seas as he discussed with the World Government, he would need to continue recruiting new members.

Fortunately, most of the powerful people in this world have flocked to the Grand Line and then entered the New World. Generally speaking, there are not many powerful people in the four seas.

Even the navy's branches in the four seas are much weaker than those in the Grand Line.

In this way, it is only necessary to select a part of the elites of the new world and recruit new people from all over the world to support the operation of the security company.

"Just continue to replicate it according to the original model."

Robin looked through the previous materials and added to them.

"Security companies, shipyards, textile mills, garment factories, food processing plants, and a series of other industries can all be expanded there simultaneously. We can also cooperate with powerful local forces."

"I'll leave all these matters to you."

Rhodes stood up and looked at the reliable partners in front of him.

With them around, he can just be at ease and be a hands-off boss.

"Before that, Rod."

Naylu looked at Rhodes.

"We also need to integrate our current strength and clarify everyone's division of labor and responsibilities."

"It's different now than before. We are no longer ordinary pirates."

"Although you still insist on your status as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and the World Government has acknowledged this, in the eyes of everyone in the New World, you are the new Four Emperors!"

Hearing what Naylu said, Rhodes was slightly stunned, and then he started to think seriously.

"Yes, we do need to clarify everyone's division of labor."

Just like the many divisions of the Whitebeard Pirates, the ministers and generals of the Big Mom Pirates, and the big boss of the Beasts Pirates, the Flying Six.

The current Rod Pirates also need to make the responsibilities of everyone clear.

Two days later.

Most members of the Rod Pirates gathered in the conference room.

Based on the discussions between Rhodes, Nalu and Law over the past two days and the current situation, he made appointments and divided responsibilities for the members of the pirate group.

Governor: Rod.

Deputy Governors: Nei Lu, Luo.

Under this, several teams were divided.

The first team is responsible for coordinating the overall situation, with Neru serving as captain and Robin as vice-captain.

The second squad is responsible for intelligence gathering and analysis. Nia is the captain and Violet is the vice-captain. In fact, most of the things are handled by Violet, and Nia plays a more symbolic role.

The third squad, the support squad. Pei Jin is the captain and Kosa is the deputy captain. With Kosa's ability, they can go to various places to provide support in the fastest time.

The fourth squad, the medical squad. Law will temporarily serve as the captain, and Mansherry will serve as the deputy captain. After killing Big Mom, Rhode has sent people to Drum Island to recruit doctors, hoping to strengthen his own medical strength.

The fifth division, the rescue team. Xia Qi is the captain and Reiju is the vice-captain.

Several members of the Vinsmoke family performed outstandingly in the previous defense of Greenbit. They did not escape in the middle of the battle, and withstood Katakuri's early offensive and persisted until Nia returned. Afterwards, they fought fiercely with Katakuri together with Nia until Neru came back to support them.

After this battle, the Vinsmoke family gained Rod's initial trust and incorporated Vinsmoke Reiju into their own team, making him the core of the pirate group.

Squad 6, Logistics Team. With Minina as the captain and Perospero as the vice-captain, plus the chef team brought back from the Big Mom Pirates, the current Rod Pirates are definitely the best in terms of food.

Squad 7, the prison team. Genos is the captain, and Leo of the Dwarf Tribe is the vice-captain. Although it is called the prison team, the main task of Squad 7 now is to guard those who have been defeated and recruited, and those who are undergoing labor reform, and select suitable people from them to supplement their own team.

The 8th Division, the Finance and Business Division. The captain is left to Tesoro, and the vice-captain is Bakara, who is mainly responsible for the operations of the companies that the Pirates have now integrated.

The 9th Division, the publicity team. Brook is the captain and Bepo is the vice-captain. Not only that, the 9th Division also includes talents from all walks of life. As the power of the Rod Pirates expands, the 9th Division will actively hold various performances to enhance the recognition of the Rod Pirates in the ruled areas.

Squad 10, patrol team. Liluka is the captain, Brulee is the vice-captain, and two dwarf warriors, Kabu and Bian, also join in, and together they build the internal patrol warning work of the core area occupied by the Rod Pirates.

The 11th Division, the combat division, is led by Bonis and Charlotte Snuggle as the vice-captain.

Squad 12, Science and Technology Squad. Gray is the captain and Franky is the vice-captain, mainly responsible for high-tech research and experiments.

Squadron 13, the combat squad, with Smoothie as the captain and Webber as the vice-captain.

In addition to the captains and vice-captains assigned by Rhode to these squads, the captains and vice-captains themselves selected outstanding talents from security companies or those who recently defected to fill their respective squads.

When the pirate group is taking action, a squadron will make overall arrangements based on the situation, either arranging for a separate squad to go out, or selecting personnel from multiple squads to go out together.

With the completion of the reorganization of the Lodo Pirates, the news quickly spread throughout the ocean. With the permission of the World Government, Riot Security Company also continued its expansion, attracting the attention of many forces in the New World.
