But it's different now.
Basically, anyone who isn't a low-level soldier has a bounty on them.
Moreover, the Dragon Hunter Guild also recycles warships, and the prices they offer are not low!
This makes it profitable.
According to incomplete statistics, since Abel's live broadcast ended, the number of times the navy was attacked increased by 1,000 percent, or ten times, within seven days!
Those pirates who used to only know how to run away are now feeling resentful and have chosen to fight the Navy to the death.
This resulted in significant casualties for the navy.
Even worse things could happen.
For example, in the four sea areas of the east, west, south, and north, there have been cases where branch base commanders had their heads cut off in their sleep and the proceeds used to pay a bounty.
Thanks to the Donquixote Family's connections, the Dragon Hunter Guild has a presence in almost every sea area except the East China Sea, where they can exchange items at any time.
And this kind of thing happens quite often.
After all, many people have long disliked those scumbag officials who only know how to make money.
In the past, I couldn't make up my mind.
Now things have gotten much better; the commander of a naval branch base is basically a colonel, or a captain.
Although it's not a Navy Headquarters rank, it's worth fifty million Berries.
And it's very easy to do.
Let me put it this way. If they were pirates, these pieces of trash wouldn't be worth that much money at all.
Fifty million Berries? They can take the money, find a place to hide, or simply join the Dragon Hunter Guild. What can you do about them?
Without a commander, the base cannot operate normally, and even if a report is submitted, it has to wait for headquarters to send someone.
This will all take time.
Moreover, the Navy Headquarters is also in a state of utter chaos at this moment.
Among those wanted with bounties, the most unfortunate are actually the lower and middle-ranking officials. These people lack power, but there are more of them, and they are also widely distributed.
For many people, it's like finding money on the street.
The Dragon Hunter Guild could have easily chosen not to issue a warrant for their arrest, but Abel did. Why?
Because grassroots officers are the foundation of the navy.
Without these rank-and-file officers, what good is it for the navy to retain its high-end combat capabilities?
Can a general control all four sea areas in the east, west, south, and north?
He can't manage an entire sea area; at most, he can manage a base.
It's that simple.
Furthermore, this is a completely open conspiracy, and it cannot be cracked at all.
Feeling that the time was right, Abel began the second step of the plan.
It was broadcast live worldwide.
This live stream was just as exciting as the last one!
Do you remember Abigail, the Shichibukai who was defeated by Abel?
Abel quickly disposed of the body and then used the Magician's Deceptive Illusion to disguise Big White as... Baron Egg!
Baron Egg is dead, but no one knows it, not even Big Mom; they just think he has disappeared.
What's even more interesting is that many people in the Land of the Lustrous witnessed Baron Tamago and Abigail fighting each other.
If such a huge accusation isn't pinned on Big Mom's head, Abel won't be able to sleep soundly.
Moreover, everyone knows that he has a conflict with Big Mom.
But the result?
When Baron Tamago brought the corpse of Shichibukai Abigail to claim his bounty, he paid it without hesitation.
Then they had someone livestream the entire journey back to Tales of Rise of Kingdoms, where Big Mom was!
Look, everyone, come and see what kind of spirit this is.
If even 'enemies' can come and collect money, what else do others have to worry about?
And... that's one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea!
They just slapped the Navy and the World Government in the face not long ago, and now they're doing it again?
It's only been a short time, and already one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea has been hunted down. So who will be next?
Rear Admiral? Vice Admiral? Or Admiral?
Is it possible for a naval admiral to become one of the Five Elders?
I don’t dare to think about it, I don’t dare to think about it at all!
Those guys who were originally complacent about killing some low- and middle-ranking officials have finally learned what it means to be outmatched and to be truly superior.
Once someone takes the lead, countless others will naturally begin to try to hunt down these high-end naval forces.
What if they're all made of silver with pewter tips, all show and no substance?
Furthermore, Baron Egg is one of Big Mom's men.
What does this signal mean?
Could it be that the Dragon Hunter Guild and the Big Mom Pirates, two of the Four Emperors' powers, are about to join forces?
Many people don't necessarily think this way, but they can't help but imagine it.
It can't be a coincidence, or perhaps Big Mom was short of money so she had someone kill a Shichibukai to get the bounty.
What kind of stupid person would think to do that?
If we rule out these impossible answers, then the most likely answer is that BIG MOM is using this method to show support for the Dragon Hunter Guild, and is actively trying to ease the conflict with Abel so that they can unite against a common enemy.
This is terrible!
Even if the Navy were to mobilize its entire force, the two Yonko would have to think twice before joining forces.
In reality, Big Mom was also quite confused at this point.
Because she never gave any orders.
It's unclear why Baron Egg did this.
Just as she summoned Baron Egg to get to the bottom of things, her men reported that Baron Egg... had run away!
This infuriated Big Mom!
I haven't even asked you anything yet, why are you running away?
There must be something wrong here.
Pokemus hasn't shown up yet; he might have already been killed.
So Baron Egg ran away with the billion Berries?
Big Mom simply couldn't understand it, or rather, she couldn't figure out all the twists and turns of it even if she tried her hardest.
Enraged, she had no choice but to issue a warrant for the capture of the escaped Baron Egg and the missing Pekoms.
She refused to believe that the other party could escape on her own turf, unless this guy suddenly could fly.
Chapter 751 The Evil Dragon of the East Sea
The two live streams completely stunned the Navy!
If the Dragon Hunter Guild and the Big Mom Pirates really joined forces, it would be a huge disaster.
This means that the navy cannot act rashly and has virtually no way to deal with the Dragon Hunter Guild.
Are they going all out to fight the Dragon Hunter Guild?
Putting aside whether they can defeat the combined forces of the two Yonko, even if they do win, it will definitely be a Pyrrhic victory, with countless elite marines killed or wounded.
If the Navy really did that, other pirate factions would be ecstatic!
Forget about the Navy Headquarters.
Therefore, the navy could not take any action and could only symbolically, or rather, in a fit of exasperation, update Abel's bounty.
Moreover, it was a one-time increase of a huge sum of 5 million!
The bounty jumped from 4.8555 billion Berries to 5.3555 billion Berries!
The increase of 5 million Berries has nothing to do with Abel's strength. It is only because he put bounties on the heads of the Navy and World Government officials that he caused extremely bad consequences, leading to instability and chaos in the world. He is simply a heinous criminal!
If the navy doesn't react at all, it will completely disappoint the people who support them.
So even though the increase in the bounty of 5 million would not help, and might even embolden the enemy, they still did it.
Nothing else matters, what matters is attitude.
When Abel learned of this news and saw his brand-new wanted poster, he couldn't help but laugh.
He thought this big move would increase his wealth by 10 billion Berries, but it only increased by 5 million. Are they looking down on him?
I still think this number is already huge.
53 billion berries!
This means that Abel's bounty has officially surpassed Edward Newgate's 5.046 billion Berries, making him the pirate with the highest bounty on the high seas!
Second only to the 5.5648 billion Berries of the former Pirate King Gol D. Roger, who has already been executed.
Number one in the world, number two in history!
Not bad.
Abel thought about it and realized that surpassing Roger now wouldn't be very meaningful. He wanted to do something big in the future and surpass Roger in every aspect.
