From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

In fact, even without all these twists and turns, Sakaski's position as general would not have been taken away by anyone else.

It's just that by doing this, he can do it more beautifully.

In the original story, Sakaski should have been the head of the G-1 base for a while, right?

No wonder after he became the admiral, he moved the headquarters of the navy to G-1.

It turns out that was his base camp.

Just like G-7 and Diarmait.

"Speaking of which, what about you? You seem to be fine recently. Could it be that you have become lax after becoming a general?" Sakaski suddenly asked.

Diarmait rolled his eyes at him, then said, "You're overthinking it. How could I possibly be lax? Actually, as an admiral, I'm mostly stationed at Marineford. It seems both the Marshal and the Sengoku admiral want me to take over more of the navy's internal development matters, rather than external conquests. That's why I seem a bit relaxed. You might not know this, but I just dealt with Amazon Lily last year. Those pirates who were once passed down from generation to generation can now be considered members of our navy. The next emperor of Amazon Lily is currently at G-7, learning how to become an excellent navy..."

Sakaski really didn't know about this. After all, it was a very confidential matter, known only to a few high-ranking officials in the navy...

However, although he didn't know, it was because he didn't ask. In fact, as a candidate for general, he had the right to know.

Therefore, Diarmait did not hide it from him.

Sakaski looked at Diarmait in surprise and said, "So, you've wiped out the Nine Snakes Pirates, which have been passed down for hundreds of years?"

"Ah, that's not the case yet, but it will be soon. In fact, I plan to let the next Amazon Lily Emperor go back to take over the Nine Snakes Pirates after he comes of age, and then as a pirate..." Diarmait said with a smile.

Sakaski also reacted at this time and said in a deep voice: "As a pirate, you want to join the Seven Warlords of the Sea, right?"

“That’s right.” Diarmuid nodded.

"Then you are really amazing." Sakaski sighed again.

"Besides that, after helping you deal with Kaido this time, I'll also start discussing with Smoker when I get back. I'll start by using his hue as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea to set up a trading company. This will also make it easier for him to take over the output of the Calm Belt in the future."

Diarmait stroked his chin and said.

"You know all this?" Sakaski asked in surprise.

Diarmuid glanced at Sakaski and said, “I understand a little bit.”

To be honest, the business model of this world is a bit monotonous, and Diarmait has many cool operations in mind that he can implement.

But in reality, there is no need for any of those fancy things.

Power is the foundation for maintaining all these. In the face of power, all fancy business operations are of little significance and will ultimately only serve to benefit others.

At this stage, Diarmait holds immense power and is even able to connect the Seven Warlords of the Sea with Queen Stussy of the CP Agency.

If all else fails, we can drag Doflamingo into the trouble.

Just by putting this formation together, you don't have to worry about losing money, right? It's definitely a huge profit!

Therefore, Diarmait does not need to understand too much about business operations.

The development of the doldrums has been progressing in an orderly manner in recent years. Two years ago, a plant that had been extinct for more than two hundred years was discovered.

At that time, that plant was used to make cigar tobacco. It was controlled by a certain country and was difficult to transplant, so it can be considered a unique product.

As a result, more than two hundred years ago, the island where the country was located sank, and the plant was basically declared extinct.

Before, this plant was discovered again in the doldrums, and it was completely possible to set up a tobacco company. Smoker, the big smoker, was just the right person for this.

Moreover, there are more and more pirates, and their consumption level for such things is also getting higher and higher.

By then, we can create a cigar and cigarette brand like "Binks' Wine" that is popular among pirates.

Make money from pirates.

And isn’t Smoker, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea under One Piece, the spokesperson?

What's more, if nothing unexpected happens, these cigars will be made by pirate prisoners.

This is very meaningful. If you, as a new pirate, don’t have one of the cigars made by the pirate veterans, are you still a pirate?

In short, these are all backup plans. Diarmait plans to use Smoker's status as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea to set up a large trading company. In a dozen years, it may be able to develop into a giant consortium, and by then it may be able to provide stable blood transfusions for the navy.

Once this problem is solved, the world government can step aside.

Chapter 198 Kaido: Pull the boat over here for me!

Sky Island. Baron.

Kaido was standing on his boat at this time, looking at the deserted island.

He was very tall, and looked about the same height as Charlotte and Lingling, about eight or nine meters.

At the same time, he was extremely strong, with bulging muscles all over his body, some dragon scale tattoos on his body, and horns on his head.

Overall, his temperament is wild and violent, and at first glance, he looks like a reckless man.

But in fact, although Kaido always likes to seek death, fight alone, and do some messy things.

But he is not a real reckless man. On the contrary, he is rough but meticulous and very shrewd.

"Why is there no one here?" Kaido murmured softly, with a hint of displeasure in his eyes.

"Boss, what on earth are you doing here?" A man who was equally tall but thinner asked, standing behind Kaido.

Fire disaster. Embers.

Or King, in fact, he hasn't got any title of Fire Disaster yet.

The Beasts Pirates have not yet reached their peak state. Compared to Charlotte Linlin, Kaido's strength may not be bad, but his influence is indeed much weaker.

He didn't have many powerful masters under his command, only King and Quinn were worthy of his skill, and as for the 900 million tusks that came later, Jack was only in his teens and hadn't joined the Beasts Pirates yet.

Of course, Kaido has a lot of subordinates, but their quality is not very good.

It is also thanks to him, the big guy known as the "strongest creature", who is carrying the charge, otherwise the Beasts Pirates would not be that powerful.

It is also because of this that Kaido realized the weakness of his subordinates, so he was not in a hurry to stir up trouble in the New World.

He has been gathering his strength over the past few years.

In order to make up for the lack of combat effectiveness under his command, he set his sights and plans on the country of Wano, where there were many samurai.

In Kaido's view, if he could take over Wano Country and obtain the service of local samurai, he would be able to quickly make up for the lack of combat effectiveness under his command.

At the same time, Wano Country also has some very good forging technology, which helped him open up opportunities in the arms business in the dark world, and he has recently made a lot of black money.

He has achieved his goal of taking over Wano Country. Kozuki Oden was killed by him, and the orthodox Kozuki clan of Wano Country was basically extinct. Now the entire Wano Country is in his hands.

The Beasts Pirates also began to develop.

However, Kaido's mood is still not very good, because the task of replenishing high-end combat power has not been achieved in Wano Country.

Although there are many samurai in Wano Country, they are quite resistant to him as a pirate. For the time being, there are no powerful guys to work for him, so he can only control the samurai power of Wano Country by controlling the Kurozumi family.

In addition, Kaido actually found that Wano Country was a bit "exaggerated". The samurai and the like were very famous, but apart from Kozuki Oden, there were not many who could really fight.

But most of them are die-hard fans of Kozuki Oden.

Not to mention serving Kaido, not seeking revenge on him or cutting off his dragon head would already be considered a blessing.

Therefore, although the Beasts Pirates have grown a lot stronger, made a lot of money from arms and other things, and established a base like Wano Country that is closed to the outside world and easy to defend and difficult to attack, Kaido is still in a bad mood.

Perhaps it is for this reason that Kaido attaches great importance to talents in the future. People like Kidd and Luffy, after being defeated, he would not be willing to kill them. He would lock them up to grind their arrogance and see if he could recruit them for his own use.

Listening to Jin's question, Kaido sighed slightly and said, "I'm a little annoyed by always staying on Onigashima. I just wanted to get some fresh air. There's no other reason." After that, Kaido waved his hand and said, "Alright, you guys go do your things. There's no need to wait for me on Sky Island. Let me be alone for a while."

Due to the lack of manpower and the fact that the business with the Don Quixote family has not yet been fully developed, the arms business of the Beasts Pirates is still relatively "primitive".

Every time the goods are shipped, it is this guy Jin who is personally responsible for escorting them.

But in order to keep a low profile and not attract attention, Kaido relies on his ability to bring them to the Sky Island every time, and then take the route of the Sky Island. After arriving at the destination, he uses the balloon octopus to fly down and transfer the goods.

I have to say that Kaido is really worried about the Beasts Pirates and has a very hard life.

This is why Kaido is here, and Sakaski, who somehow found some clues, discovered this matter. Seeing that his boss Kaido said this, Jin stopped talking nonsense and simply asked, "Do you need a ship to leave for you?" Kaido waved his hand and said, "No, it's been a long time since I jumped from such a high place..." Jin? ? ?

Is this human language you're talking about?

However, he also knew that his boss could be crazy sometimes, so he just nodded, turned around and left without saying anything.

Soon, the Beasts Pirates' fleet left the Sky Island of Baron, leaving only Kaido standing alone on the shore, looking at the sun in the distance.

Kaido stood there motionless, seemingly in a daze, waiting for the sun to descend behind the clouds and the sky to darken slightly before he came to his senses and stretched. Just then, a dark figure with a hint of fire suddenly flew over from the distant horizon. Kaido was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Why are you back again?"

As he finished speaking, the figure moved closer. Kaido then realized that Jin, who had just left a few hours ago, was now in a state of disarray. He looked as if he had been in a fight and had suffered a loss. As soon as Jin landed, he quickly said, "Boss, hurry up, the navy is coming!"

"Navy??" Kaido looked at Jin in bewilderment, then glanced at the vast white sea in the distance and asked in surprise, "You said the navy came to Sky Island to catch pirates?"

You have to know that Sky Island is not under the jurisdiction of the World Government. It has always been independent of this system. The World Government is too lazy to pay attention to these people from Sky Island. As for the navy, although they occasionally come up to take a look, it is impossible to say that they come there specifically to catch pirates.

It is for this reason that Kaido chose to use the Sky Island route to smuggle arms!

Because it's safe!

"Where is my fleet? Where are the goods?" Kaido suddenly thought of his munitions and asked quickly without waiting for Jin to answer.

"They're all sunk... Boss, it's the admiral of the navy. Diarmait! He's on Sky Island for some reason, let's go!" Jhin said quickly.

"They all sank?" Kaido's eyes flashed with fury, and he asked again, "An entire fleet's worth of goods? All of my 300 billion berries of munitions sank? That's enough to arm tens of thousands of people!!!"

Looking at the furious Kaido, Jin didn't dare to say anything for a moment.

A few hours ago, he set out from here with a whole fleet of arms, ready to deliver the goods to the North Sea. But after walking for a while, he suddenly saw a naval warship.

That's right, there was only one ship. At that time, King didn't take it seriously and was ready to sink it and be done with it. He even felt that there was no need to provoke it and it was okay to ignore the warship. The entire fleet of the Beasts Pirates was there, and it was ten thousand meters high. This warship should not take the initiative to attack. Was it looking for death?

As a result, the warship rushed up immediately when it saw them.

Jin still didn't take it seriously and prepared to teach them a lesson.

But before he could make a move, the enormous gravitational pressure instantly enveloped the entire fleet of the Beasts Pirates. It was at that moment that King realized that something was wrong.

Gravity has become one of the Navy's signature features.

The one who wielded this power was none other than Admiral Rodriguez, known as one of the World Government's most powerful warriors. Diarmuid!

I heard that guy was very difficult to deal with. Even Charlotte Lingling, who was as famous as his boss, had suffered at his hands!

As expected, the fleet had no power to resist at all, and was sent into free fall by Diarmait, falling from a height of ten thousand meters... There was basically no hope of saving them.

In other words, King could fly and was quite strong, so he wasn't killed instantly by Diarmait's area attack. After struggling to break free from the constraints of gravity, he flew quickly to report to Kaido.

Seeing that Jin was no longer talking, Kaido's furious aura gradually subsided, and he said in a deep voice: "Marine Admiral? The guy who stole something from Lingling, right? I didn't provoke the navy, but they came to provoke me instead? Well, I want to see what this so-called Navy Admiral is capable of!"
