Pirates: Building High Walls Starting from the East Blue

"..."

Didn't you just say that?

however.

Just as Daz Bonis breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this greedy fellow was finally willing to make a move.

“But that’s not enough!” Shacher looked at Daz Bones with a smile and said, “I heard that your Baroque Works still doesn’t know who its president is?”

As soon as these words fell.

Just as he was about to make a move and show this corrupt navy man what he was capable of, Daz Bones was stunned again.

He had already understood what the guy meant.

Who would have thought that this corrupt navy would set its sights on Baroque Works?!

Daz Bonis's expression changed again, his eyes seemingly filled with conflict and hesitation.

But this time.

"It's getting late. If there's nothing else, I should head back now."

As soon as Shacher finished speaking, Daz Bonis seemed to have made a decision. He sighed and said, "I understand! I'll give you the way to contact Baroque Works. Please, rescue the Boss!"

Once the BOSS appears, he will personally take back everything that has been given to us!

By the time……

He and the boss will personally settle accounts with this corrupt naval captain!

He pulled a Den Den Mushi directly from his pocket, tossed it to Natsume, and said calmly, "This is a Den Den Mushi for contacting Baroque Works. With this and my personal confirmation, Baroque Works will believe that you are the real president!"

After saying that, he looked up at Xia Che again.

"Can i do it now?"

"anything else?"

"The treasure trove is inside the Rain Banquet!"

“Of course~, Robin, Nami!” Shattrath nodded, ignoring the cold-eyed Daz Bones, said something to Nami, then tossed the Den Den Mushi to Robin, saying, “Thank you for your help!”

"Don't worry, no treasure can escape my notice!"

"Yes, dear BOSS!"

"???"

Daz Bones frowned at Robin, seemingly puzzled by the strange name, but knew this wasn't the time to dwell on such things. He turned to Shacher and said calmly, "Is it alright now, Colonel Shacher?"

The words fell.

Having obtained what he wanted, Shach turned around with satisfaction, looked at Daz Bones, nodded, and said, "No..."

however.

The words are not finished yet.

At this time.

"Senior Brother! Senior Brother Shache!" Kuina rushed in, glanced at Daz Bones indifferently, placed her hand on the hilt of her sword, but then turned to Shache with a strange expression and said, "The Vice Admiral and the Admiral have arrived at the Alabasta Kingdom's dock. What should we do now?"

The voice just fell.

Daz Bones: ...

Xia Che: ...

The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

"I'm sorry!" Looking at Daz Bones' cold face, Shach spread his hands helplessly and said with a regretful tone, "It seems I can't help you, but please rest assured, I will always remember Crocodile's kindness to me!"

"..."

That damn naval captain!!!

Chapter 50 Own People

"BOSS~"

A slightly excited yet deep voice rang out from the sealed cage.

With his hands cuffed with seastone and his feet shackled, Crocodile, however, acted as if he hadn't been arrested at all, but was simply resting in his room. His expression remained calm as he slowly raised his head, looked at Daz Bones who had suddenly appeared outside the cage, and then frowned slightly before saying indifferently, "What are you doing here? Were you arrested?"

"Boss..."

only.

Upon seeing his boss again, Daz Bonis breathed a sigh of relief and seemed to revert to his taciturn demeanor, offering no explanation and simply lowering his head.

But Crocodile, as his longtime underling and the only one who knew his identity, immediately guessed what was going on when he saw this scene.

"Foolish fellow~" Crocodile said coldly, looking at Daz Bones, then added expressionlessly, "That corrupt Marine has arrived? How laughable~"

What's the point of coming now?

I thought my ambitions were about to take another step forward, but... I had just received the call in the morning, and the person was arrested in the afternoon.

Thinking of this, Crocodile felt a pang of melancholy. If his hands weren't cuffed, he would have taken out his cigar and taken a deep drag as usual.

He said with a sneer, "What a degenerate navy! I've been captured, and you still dare to let me come visit you."

He looked up again at Daz Bones, who was remaining silent, and asked, "What price did that guy ask for this time?"

"The BOSS is in the Rain Banquet's treasure vault!" Upon hearing his boss's question, Daz Bonis lowered his head in shame. "And Baroque Works too!"

As soon as these words fell.

Crocodile: ...

Although he had guessed that the greedy guy would ask for an exorbitant amount, he never expected... good heavens, he emptied out all the savings that the guy had painstakingly accumulated over the years.

And that eight hundred million...

Crocodile's lips twitched. He thought about how he had been tricked by that guy three times in a row. He had originally planned to wait for that guy to come and settle the score with him properly, but he never expected that he would end up like this.

Our own people got caught, and our entire fortune was emptied by that corrupt navy!

Seeing Daz Bones, who was usually stern and unsmiling, now showing a look of shame, Crocodile sneered, "Stupid and greedy Marines, wanting a bunch of useless tools. I really overestimated him back then."

Then, he calmly closed his eyes, sat upright in the cage, and said, "You can get out now!"

“Boss, I’m here to rescue you!” Upon hearing Crocodile’s words, Daz Bones remembered the purpose of his sneaking in and quickly said, “That corrupt naval captain has already distracted the naval heroes and admirals. Now, as long as we open this door, Boss can leave quietly.”

This was also a deal he made with that corrupt naval captain. After the admiral and the naval hero arrived, the captain planned to take the money and do nothing.

Finally, considering the BOSS's treasure and his promise to personally cooperate fully in helping this guy control all the agents of Baroque Works, he agreed to give him a chance to meet his BOSS.

only.

On the surface, he came to secretly meet the BOSS, but in reality, he came to secretly rescue the BOSS. As for what punishment the corrupt navy would receive, what did it have to do with them?

You have to understand, they're pirates!

however.

"Leave quietly?" Crocodile slowly opened his eyes again, glanced at Daz Bones indifferently, and a hint of disdain on his lips.

How could they leave quietly under the watchful eyes of naval heroes and admirals?

Do not make jokes!

Especially that corrupt navy officer; he doesn't seem like the type to keep his promises.

and……

"I'm not in the mood for that right now!" Crocodile turned around, his eyes calmly staring ahead. As if remembering something, his eyes became empty, then he looked coldly at Daz Bones and said coldly, "Who do you think you are? You're just my tool. Get out of here!"

“BOSS~” Daz Bonis seemed surprised that the BOSS would refuse without hesitation and say such a thing. He was stunned.

But seeing that the BOSS had ignored him and sat cross-legged to the side, he remained silent for a moment, then lowered his head and sat cross-legged outside as well, without saying a word.

Suddenly.

The two of them sat there in silence.

After a while.

Seemingly sensing that Daz Bones was still there, Crocodile opened his eyes again, his tone impatient, "What are you still doing here? Get out of here!"

If it weren't for the fact that this guy wasn't talkative and was very obedient, we wouldn't have let him manage Baroque Works back then.

As a sand crocodile, he never trusts anyone!

"Don't bother me anymore!"

"Boss, I'm not in the mood for that right now." Daz Bones, seemingly back to his usual self, said expressionlessly, "In that case, let's get captured together!"

"Boring!" Crocodile couldn't help but sneer when he heard Daz Bones' reply, then closed his eyes and ignored the guy.

The two of them sat cross-legged like that.

I don’t know how long it took.

Crocodile finally looked up at Daz Bones again, "Get out of here right now!"

"BOSS~"

"Keep a close eye on my treasure! Tell that corrupt Marine I'll be back one day!" Crocodile's eyes narrowed, the long, horizontal scar beneath his eye seemingly restoring his Crocodile-like aura. He said calmly, "I'll personally go and take it from that guy!"

"Boss, I..."

"Get out of here!"

"Yes, Boss! I will keep an eye on that corrupt navy!" This time, Daz Bones did not refuse his boss's words, and a smile appeared on his usually calm face.

Only this man is worthy of his following!

"We'll start the plan again when the boss returns!"

With that, he turned and walked outside without looking back, until he was almost gone.

Suddenly, the BOSS's indifferent voice came from behind.

"You better not die when the time comes!"
