Pirate: I am a logistics person, what the hell is the emperor

Chapter 421: Overlord of the Sea
A day has passed since the end of the Aeghede War.

In order to seize and guide public opinion, the printing houses controlled by the world government printed out large quantities of newspapers at the fastest speed and distributed them to major newspapers.

In just one night, the outcome of the war spread rapidly throughout the world.

In the Sabaody Archipelago, giant trees grow lushly and greenly. Colorful bubbles float in the dense treetops, bursting and dissipating in the sunlight that filters through the gaps between the branches and leaves.

wow——

The waves broke through the water surface, revealing a cute head with short green hair. Kimi looked around for a while, his expression looking a little nervous.

After confirming that there was no one around, she quietly swam to a peninsula on the outskirts. After searching for a while, she finally found a latest newspaper. She opened it and started reading.

"Great! I knew Luffy and the others would be okay!"

When Kimi saw the content in the newspaper, he was so excited that he couldn't help but shout with joy.

On her shoulder, a starfish wearing a hat and dressed fashionably jumped out and covered her mouth.

"Too loud, stupid Kimi! Where do you think this place is? Grab the newspaper and let's go back quickly."

"Yeah, we need to quickly bring this news to everyone on Fishman Island."

Kimi suppressed his excitement and nodded.

In the newspaper, the scene of a city engulfed in flames was the first picture, with a text next to it, and at the end it said that the Straw Hat Pirates had successfully escaped.

The navy's defeat was finally presented in the form of "failure to successfully capture the Straw Hat Pirates."

Even from the beginning to the end of the battle, the article vividly portrays the image of the Straw Hat Pirates as brutal pirates. The righteous navy fought bravely and waged a cruel and tragic war with the Straw Hat Pirates, the overlord of the sea.

At a critical moment in the war, it was interrupted by the arrival of the resurrected Giant Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates. Under siege from multiple forces, the Navy was unable to cope and was forced to abandon its war goals.

[Failed to successfully arrest the Straw Hat Pirates], [The Giant Pirates were resurrected], [The Whitebeard Pirates supported the brothers], and [The Navy gave up the battle target].

Each keyword is a fact, but when combined together, black and white are completely reversed.

There is no indication in the article that the Navy was defeated. To an uninformed person, it seems that the Navy even forced the Straw Hat Pirates into a desperate situation with their overwhelming advantage, and ultimately failed to capture them due to interference from other forces.

As for the Five Elder Stars descending upon Egghead, not a single word about it would appear in the newspapers.

On Beehive Island, where the sun is warm and the seas are calm all year round, a small, dilapidated warship slowly approaches the shore.

After a while, several pairs of footsteps stepped onto the beach.

"Stusi has already contacted Gabra and the others. Rest here for two days. Once we've reunited, we'll set off to find Lucci."

Kaku had a gloomy expression, with the seriously injured and unconscious Khalifa on his back, and Bruno followed beside him carrying a large bag of supplies.

After the Five Elders were all driven back to the Holy Land, the navy quickly evacuated. At the last moment, Bruno used the last bit of his consciousness to activate his abilities and brought all the seriously injured people to the edge of the coast.

After recovering some strength, they found an abandoned and wrecked warship. Relying on the supplies on the ship, they escaped from Egghead overnight and finally arrived at the nearest island.

Pirate Paradise, Beehive Island.

"I'm afraid everyone above us thinks we're dead. What are we going to do next?"

Bruno asked in a low voice.

Kaku looked at the island silently, his eyes revealing endless confusion.

Even if it goes back, it will probably be discarded as waste.

After all, the reason these people can become CP0 together is to a certain extent because the higher-ups are impressed by Lucci's abilities.

He started training and selection since he was a child, and gradually joined CP9 to serve the World Government. In a blink of an eye, more than years have passed, and there is not a single place in the vast ocean that can bring him peace of mind.

Looking back on his life of traveling all over the sea to carry out missions and visiting so many places, what he missed most at this moment was the days of sawing wood under the sun.

After having breakfast with colleagues in the cafeteria, I took my tools to see the ships, or worked as a carpenter in the shipyard.

Occasionally, there would be some ignorant guys who wanted to default on their debts and cause trouble. The shipbuilders would rush up and beat them up, and then, under the admiring gaze of the citizens, they would throw the troublemakers out of the shipyard like chickens.

He would often receive cheers from the citizens, and would shuttle between the streets and tall buildings in the name of "mountain breeze", feeling the coolness of the sea breeze.

It was just an ordinary and ordinary morning.

Such images always appear in dreams, and then disappear when you wake up, leaving behind a lingering regret in the bedroom.

Kaku was silent for a while, and finally walked towards the island, saying softly:

"I should go back to the Seven Water City."

"Should I say it's true?"

Bruno was still serious. In private, he always had no expression on his face, looking like a taciturn and mature man.

Only when he was working in the tavern, he would receive many craftsmen from the shipyard every night and listen to their conversations with a silly smile on his face.

The more absurd and funny the topic was, the more interested everyone was in talking about it. They drank heartily amidst the lively laughter. Bruno felt that he had done a perfect job. No one could tell that his smile was a fake, and he didn't think so either.

Until the restaurant closed late at night, he began to clean up the mess on the table left by the guests, watching them drunkenly walking arm in arm, supporting each other, and staggering along the moonlit street.

In a trance, he seemed to see rats in the stinking ditches beside the street, just like them now, attracting disgust wherever they went.

Now things are no longer the same.
There was a dull gloom in Bruno's eyes.
"In fact, there is no way for us to truly return to the Seven Water City."

"Well, that's okay."

Kaku spoke in a calm tone, just walking forward step by step, as if this could strengthen his determination.

"I haven't even apologized to them yet. You can do whatever you want to me, but I have to at least see them again."

“There’s nowhere else I want to go.”

"There's really nothing I can do about you."

Bruno shook his head and sighed, "I'll go with you then."

The island was as noisy and bustling as ever, especially after seeing the newspaper that had just been published today, every tavern was talking loudly about the deeds of the Straw Hat Pirates.

The pirates did not have any hatred towards the group of people who had invaded the island not long ago. The law of the jungle has always been the rule on this island.

They will only think that Teach is too bad, or lament that the Straw Hat Pirates are too strong, and then become flatterers of one of the strong ones.

For example, Luffy, Reiner, Zoro, or Sanji, the pirates will brag about them, as if they can become brothers with them when they meet again next time.

"After the Battle of Marineford, newcomers emerged one after another, vying for the title of Emperor of the Sea. As a result, the situation has returned to the Four Emperors dominating the field."

"That's true, but it's completely different from the past. The four emperors now are all newcomers who have only come to prominence in the past two years."

"Yeah, Red Hair is the only veteran strongman left. I don't think he will be overthrown soon."

"Hahahaha!"

A burst of laughter broke out in the tavern. Kaku pushed open the door and found that no one was looking at them, so he walked casually towards the table in the corner.

Pirates are very keen on any new things on the sea, but there is another topic that they are even more enthusiastic about.

That must be a variety of fancy comparisons of the strength of the strong ones.

"It's different. Whitebeard and the others are all old after all, while Red Hair is in his prime. His fighting power is definitely among the top four emperors."

"Don't give me that. Kaido isn't that old, but he still lost to the Black Snake Reiner. If you ask me, the New Four Emperors have more potential."

"Stop talking nonsense. Black Snake Reiner is an exception. His devil fruit is too outrageous. How could anyone beat him in a one-on-one fight?"

"That's right. Compared to him, Straw Hat Luffy, Ace, and Buggy seem much more normal." "Hey, don't forget that Ace is Roger's bloodline. I still think he's more likely to inherit the title of Pirate King."

"You said Ace has the best chance of becoming the Pirate King?!"

"Fuck your motherfucker!"

At this point, the atmosphere suddenly became heated. The two pirates slammed the table and stood up, glaring at each other, attracting the attention of several tables around them.

"Senryodo Baki has three former Shichibukai under his command! Do you even know what the world's greatest swordsman is? How could he lose with Hawkeye around him?"

"That's just Hawkeye! The Whitebeard Pirates have sixteen captains, including Marco, Jozbista, and Jinbe. How many can Hawkeye defeat?"

"Hey, hey, hey, you two, have you forgotten the strength of the Straw Hat Pirates?!"

Just as the two were arguing fiercely, another pirate pushed through the crowd and joined the quarrel with a slap of his hand.

"The undead summoned by one Black Snake Reiner can defeat the two pirate groups! Not to mention that the Straw Hat Boy has powerful generals such as the great swordsman Roronoa and Blackfoot Sanji under his command."

"What's the use of having strong subordinates! I heard that Straw Hat Boy has never defeated Ace once. The Pirate King is not for his subordinates!"

One pirate grabbed the newcomer by the collar and shouted, and the captured pirate immediately retorted loudly with a red face:

"Winning is enough, why bother with so much? Even if we talk about captain strength, Straw Hat Boy shouldn't be at the bottom. Buggy is the weakest one, right?"

"What are you talking about! Didn't you read the Navy's report? Buggy was once a man on Roger's ship who was on par with Red Hair. His strength was at least on Red Hair's level, don't you understand?"

"Bullshit! How can that guy Buggy be compared to Red-Haired Shanks!"

Another red-haired supporter joined the battle, and soon the small space in the tavern was engulfed by chaotic shouting and cursing.

In the corner, Kaku closed his eyes, veins popped up on his forehead, and he clenched his fists to suppress the impulse in his heart.

He really wanted to rush up and shout that the Straw Hat Boy had awakened to a new form and his strength had greatly increased, but he still tried his best to restrain himself.

Perhaps seeing through his thoughts, Khalifa gave him a wordless look of disdain.

How can a man be so stupid as to quarrel over such a thing?

Just incomprehensible.

"Hey! Look at this! A new bounty has been posted! It's for the Straw Hat Pirates!!"

An excited shout came from outside the door, finally interrupting the ongoing fierce quarrel, and the tavern suddenly fell silent.

One second later.

"Show me now!"

"I want to see Black Snake Reiner!!"

"Don't grab it! You're going to tear it apart, you bastard!"

"There's more! There's more outside!"

The pirates who were watching the quarrel just a second ago suddenly rushed towards the door almost at the same time.

"This time the speed is too fast."

Kaku and the other two looked at each other, all a little confused. Bruno nodded, used his ability to go outside and get one, and then came in through the wall.

Less than half a day after the World Government released the report on the war, the newly determined bounty was obtained by Morgans.

The World Economic News bribed the printing press to send the bounty to all parts of the world at the fastest speed possible, before the world government could.

As for the reason for doing this, it is naturally because of Luffy’s latest bounty photo.

"Wait, this is Straw Hat?!"

"What's going on with this form?!"

Looking at Luffy's photo on the wanted poster, the pirates were shocked. It was actually the Nika form that the Five Elders tried to hide.

As for the one below, it was so long that they had to count the bounty on their fingers.

"52 million Baileys!!"

On the blue sea, a white sheepshead boat is sailing slowly.

The seagulls flew over and lightly touched the sea water, causing ripples. The fish that were floating on the water and blowing bubbles were startled. They flicked their tails and disappeared with a thud, leaving only a large number of dense and fine bubbles floating.

"Come and see, brothers! Shocking news!"

On the lawn deck, Usopp grabbed a bounty notice and shouted excitedly:
"Chopper! Come see Chopper! Your bounty has skyrocketed!"

Hearing this, the people in the cabin came out curiously one by one. Luffy stretched out his arms, grabbed the railing on the second floor, and flew out like a rocket.

"Let me see! Let me see!"

Chopper flapped his little feet and jumped over the guardrail impatiently, full of excitement.

Others couldn't help but become curious. What kind of bounty amount could be considered a huge increase on a pet worth 1000 berries?

"Dang-dang-dang!"

Usopp grinned and stretched out his hand, showing the bounty order directly to Chopper.

The picture above is the same as always, a cute photo of Chopper holding marshmallows, but the string of numbers below is almost twice as long!
【Ship's Doctor Tony Tony Chopper】

[Reward amount: 3 million berries!]

"333 million Baileys!!"

Chopper was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth. The bounty order in front of him seemed to be emitting a dazzling golden light, making it difficult for him to look directly at it.

"The title has also been changed from pet to ship's doctor. That's pretty impressive, Chopper."

Robin knelt down, smiled gently and touched his head.

“Hehe~~Hehe~~”

Chopper's face flushed, his eyes completely lost in the heroic fantasy in his mind, and he fell backwards with a happy face.

Reiner shook his head and sighed:

"It's ruined, completely ruined, my pet Chopper is gone forever."

However, there are only a few of them, and a full-scale battle broke out with the navy. It is hard for Chopper's performance not to be conspicuous, so it is normal to change the previous bounty.

It should be said that if there were still only a few thousand Beli after this battle, Reiner would have suspected that Chopper was an undercover agent of the World Government.

"Luffy, Reiner, this is yours."

Usopp said as he spread out all the bounty notices in his hand on the lawn.

"Sun God Nika? Luffy's title has changed."

"The bounty is 52 billion berries!!"

Everyone's eyes widened in shock, and they quickly looked at Reiner's bounty order.

"Necromancer Lord Reiner, bounty 56 billion berries!!"

"The bounty on you two alone has already exceeded 10 billion!!"
