Chapter 343 Art Wall
In the unknown sea area, the colors of the sky and the ocean are very similar, one is cloudless and the other is calm.
A pirate ship floated on the sea, its happy voice echoing around.
"Captain, the harvest is very rich this time!"
On the deck, a group of pirates gathered around a pile of trophies, looking excited.
The loot contained many things, including food supplies, medicine, gold, and baileys. It was packed in sacks and boxes, and overflowed from the mouth and was scattered on the deck.
"Hahahaha, just be rich, this is something from two villages!"
Wearing a captain's hat, a big beard, an eyepatch on his left eye, one foot replaced with an iron rod, and one hand replaced with an iron hook, he looks like the most standard pirate captain, and he is indeed a pirate. The captain's men laughed.
This is a small pirate group, with only about sixty people on board, but they are living a good life recently.
They had just raided a small island where there were only two villages, and they all robbed them.
Before they were released, they would not have dared to seize the island, because it was obviously Whitebeard's territory.
It's different now. Whitebeard has been dead for a long time. He's been dead for a year!
In this year, their life was the best.
"Get rid of this lot, and then we'll go grab a new place!"
The pirate captain waved his hand with great pride.
"Eh? Captain, aren't you going to rest?" asked a pirate wearing glasses.
"There is no way to rest now. The sea has been too chaotic recently. I heard that Scourge and Blackbeard are expanding their territory. I don't want to meet them. Before they expand, we grab what we need to grab!"
Being a pirate means making money, of course.
Not all pirates want the Onepiece they have never seen before. Even before Whitebeard died, he said that the Onepiece is real, but there are still a lot of people who are not interested.
Why come to the Grand Line and reach the New World is just because this place is chaotic enough and there is no navy.
No matter how terrifying the Four Emperors are, they can't be pursued as closely as the navy.
There are countries everywhere that either can't pay the heavenly gold, or simply don't pay. Some are not even countries, just independent islands.
For pirates, this is of course paradise.
After all, there are no human rights in non-franchised places, so they can do whatever they want.
Especially after Whitebeard's death.
But things are different now, the situation has changed.
This pirate captain wants to grab more before the natural disaster and Blackbeard come, and he will definitely not be able to rest.
He is a man with a long-term vision.
"Young ones, just get through this period, everyone should work harder."
The pirate captain cheered: "If we rob for a few more months, we will make enough money, and everyone can do whatever they want by then!"
"Captain, haven't you ever thought about choosing one to join? I heard that both Scourge and Blackbeard are recruiting people."
A pirate asked: "Those are the two candidates for the Four Emperors."
Two of the most popular people on the sea, one captured the city of desire in the world, and the other occupied the island of chaos swarming.
And the rules for recruiting pirates are also different.
On the other side of the natural disaster, all pirates who want to join must give up their flags and only be loyal to the biggest one.
But the good thing is that as long as you join, you don't have to worry about being abandoned. Even if you are injured or disabled, there will be a place to support them. Even if you die, the money they deserve will be a lot, and it will be sent to people close to you. .
Although they didn't quite believe that there would really be such a big pirate, they still shouted the slogan.
As a pirate, it is common to hear some rumors or even get news after meeting someone for a drink or two in a tavern.
I don't know if the money will be retained after death, but some disabled guys are indeed arranged.
As long as the natural disasters are not defeated, they will be fine.
There are no taboos on Blackbeard's side, and you don't even need to be loyal to him. Beehive Island is an open island, and anyone can come, as long as they don't go against him.
But similarly, no one will care if they die, and no one will guarantee their property.
Both have advantages and disadvantages, but compared to the old four emperors who are already firmly in power, the recruitment threshold for these two is not that high, and even a pirate can get through.
"Candidate for the Four Emperors? Even the Four Emperors are not good. We don't want to be pirates for a long time."
The pirate captain said: "You have been at sea with me for so long and you know my character. I don't want to join those big pirates. No matter how nice it sounds, their eyes are limited after all, and they can't see ordinary people like us."
"Those of us, even if we die, no one will see it. In the eyes of those big pirates, we are just a series of numbers. Those people will join for fame and fortune, but I am different. I just want to live."
"When I have robbed enough and saved enough money, I will retire. If you want to continue being a pirate, you can make your own decision."
"Captain? Are you quitting?!"
"Yeah, I'm getting old too. This sea is no longer suitable for me. Whitebeard is dead, so it's time for me to retire. Hey, why are you laughing? Don't think I'm not famous, but I've been doing this since I was a teenager I have been a pirate for forty years now!”
"When I was a pirate, Whitebeard hadn't formed his own pirate group yet! I watched the sea change with my own eyes. The sea would shake every few years. Now it's a drastic change, and I can't keep up. It's time to step aside.”
The pirate captain raised his head, a look of nostalgia in his one eye.
"After I retire, I will find a place, buy a large piece of land, become a rich man, hire a few people to farm the land, and enjoy myself."
call out!
Before the last word '生' was uttered, a scream suddenly erupted in the air, and a dark object came quickly from a distance and hit the deck.
boom!
The violent explosion set off the gunpowder magazine, causing the ship to be caught in the explosion. Planks and nails flew away, and the entire ship fell apart and floated on the sea.
On the distant sea surface, a row of huge dark shapes suddenly appeared, sailing straight forward far away from the wreckage.
No one cares about the wreckage of the ship at all, just like trampling the ants to death, and they will not study the treasures inside the ants.
"Yes! Cannonball!"
On the Death Omen, Renedia held her fist from behind a cannon, moved her goggles up to her pink hair, and exclaimed happily: "Hit the target!"
"Letty, come up for some snacks."
From the balcony on the second floor, Marika called out.
"Coming, coming!"
Renedia clapped her little hands and ran straight up.
In the captain's room, Sag was lying on the throne and tutted: "If I had known that I would bring Belana and Pasia here, there would be no one to dance." "We are going on an expedition, not doing anything else. It is too dangerous to bring them here." Now, Belana is the head maid and needs to maintain the daily work of the palace, and Pacia also needs to teach the newcomers to dance. "
Lily took out the wine bottle from the wine cabinet and asked, "Is it okay with LeFly?"
Sagar pushed the wine glass and asked Lily to pour white wine. He picked up the tea in front of him and took a bite when Renedia rushed over eagerly.
"What are you doing outside?" Sage asked.
"It's so boring. I'm looking for something to shoot. You don't allow me to fry fish, but I just found a pirate ship. I hit it with one shot. It's pretty cool."
Renedia sat on the sofa and was about to pick up a spoon to eat the cake when Marika came to her and said with a smile: "Go and wash your hands first."
"oh"
Renedia yelled and ran to wash her hands.
"Pirate ship?"
Sage was stunned for a moment, but he didn't care.
It's normal to encounter a pirate ship. If it can be blasted away with one shot, that's all.
Small things that no one cares about will be destroyed if they are destroyed.
He didn't even think about salvaging it.
In the past, I wanted money because I had the money and the confidence to use it to develop my business.
Now that he has money and territory, he lacks nothing. Of course, he is not very interested in small amounts of money.
The fleet is sailing on its way, there is no need to change its course just because of such a trivial matter.
"How much longer?" Sage asked after finishing the tea in his hand.
Lily thought for a while and said: "According to the time, we will reach the sea area agreed by Tiqi in two days."
The sailing of the large fleet is not that fast in the first place.
The Death Star can be fast, but the remaining ships are hard to predict.
Lily looked at the rear of the Death Omen from a window. Behind the black ship, there were densely packed ships.
This time the fleet of ten thousand people was huge.
Diagonally behind the Death Star, there were four ships leading the way.
Moria's small terrifying three-masted sailboat, Hawkins' Grudgedoff, Ulki's Bashiro Maru, and Akin's dreadnought battleship Sabre, are all giant ships with a capacity of a thousand people.
Further back, there are the captains' ships, all of which are three-masted sailing ships, which can carry more than 300 people, and have been modified to varying degrees.
The statue on the bow of Bellamy's ship is like a spring, and the buildings on the ship are also built like springs. Above the starry sky pirate flag, there is also an attached flag with a crossed skull and tongue sticking out. Mouth sign.
This is his ship, the Spring.
Palu's ship is covered with shields on both sides, and its logo is also a skull painted on the shield.
He also had his own ship, named 'Invincible Handsome'.
Miot's ship is quite normal. The flag is similar to Bellamy's. It has the same lip shape, but the mouth is wide open, revealing a circle representing sound waves.
This is his 'Beast with the Tongue'.
The rest is gone.
The remaining Jambaru and Statham, including the newly joined Slyman, also have ships.
But after the last battle with Big Mom, Lily felt that this configuration was wrong. After all, the Death Star also needed to be controlled.
Therefore, it was decided that when the Death Star set off, some people should still be in specific positions. Jianbalu was the helmsman and had to steer the ship, and Slyman needed to assist in command.
As for Statham, his ship is not that big. Once he gets on the ship, he will not have too many men, and he does not like to lead a ship by himself, so he simply returned to the Death Star.
During battle, once damage occurs, he can quickly repair the ship due to his size.
These captain-class ships are together with the pirate ships in the rear that have different shapes but do not have independent flags.
Nearly thirty pirate ships were mixed in with the captain-class ships. Those were pirates who had joined and used their own ships.
The Calamity Pirates are getting bigger and bigger, attracting more and more people, which also makes their subordinates' levels higher.
In the past, you only needed to convince others to become a captain, but after all this time, there were still only a few people who could convince others.
Now it's not just that, there are even competition for the 2,000 people on the Death Omen Star.
In the past, when the Death Omen Star recruited people, it could only be done by someone.
At that time, Sager gave two options.
First, keep your own ship and personnel, but without a flag. If you want to attach a flag, then you must create a convincing reputation within the pirate group.
Second, keep nothing and the entire group enters the Death Star.
A normal pirate ship only has about a hundred people, so it can eat anything. After all, people will always die in battle.
But things are different now. When there are more people, and Sager doesn't go on many expeditions now, the personnel on the Death Omen Star begin to become the target for everyone.
In addition to the three hundred demons, the remaining 1,700 people are all competing for their spots.
Even the ship's doctor, navigator and chef, some people want to prove that they are better, so as to enter the Death Star and become a true pirate elite.
As a result, the people on this ship now are all very good old pirates in terms of combat ability and experience.
After all, this is the main ship and the soul of the Calamity Pirates.
Of course, there are also those former pirate teams who do not want to join but keep their own ships. Although they have lost their flag, they can still compete from another direction.
"Sag. Something's not right!"
Lily withdrew her gaze and looked at the window in front of her. Just once, she suddenly froze and shouted: "There is a fleet!"
"Fleet? Marco?" Sag was stunned for a moment.
"No, it's not."
Lily shook her head: "It's a big fleet, it's not like Marco's Moby-Dick, that seems to be..."
Her pupils shrank, full of solemnity.
The fleet and so on seemed to be seen clearly.
And she also remembered that this sea area
here
It's Art Wall!
