One Piece: Rise of an Empire

Utopia.

meeting room.

"Des, after you come back this time, you can't make any more troubles. The navy will probably be very concerned about the trend from today on." Linlin said solemnly.

Linlin is now the think tank of the Des Pirates.

"Well, I see, there's nothing I can do about it. Who made me memorize my ideas?"

Des shrugged and said to Linlin.

"The first half of the great route is under the control of the world government and the navy. It is difficult for us to show our hands here. I will arrange people to do it on the ship, but it will be slower, but it should be able to catch up with our plan to enter the new world. During this time, you can help deter the security company."

"Okay, at least it's more interesting than Teacher Teacher, hahahaha"

With the development of Utopia, there are more and more commercial merchant ships, and the business of security companies is also increasing, but the first batch of students from the academy have not yet graduated.What Utopia lacks most now is combat personnel.But with the discovery of Utopia, many businessmen and people came here admiringly, and more and more people joined Utopia.With more and more people, many people came here with nothing to do, so Linlin established Utopia Tobacco and Utopia Liquor Company.The factory was established according to the information given by the system.Let the residents have jobs to do, but because of the establishment of two companies, Utopia needs more merchant ship procurement and transportation.Although the profits are huge, because this is a great route, they need stronger security personnel and more professional transportation personnel.Linlin was very busy with these things.

Lack of people is a big problem.

"Actually, we can find someone to cooperate with," Des said to Linlin.

Since Utopia can't find so many people in a short time, cooperation is definitely the way to go.

"Oh? Do you have any recommendations for good partners?"

"There is really one, Linlin, what do you think of Tian Yasha Doflamingo?" Des said.

Although the current Doflamingo is not as strong as the future, he has also established the Don Quixote family and has a place in the first half of the great route.But both Linlin and Des knew that the current Doflamingo was not as simple as it seemed on the surface, but for transportation work, the less simple the safer.

"Can you contact Doflamingo?" Linlin asked.

"Yes, I know the stronghold of his great route, but I don't know if he is there. After all, Doflamingo's main activity is still the North Sea."

"Okay, then I will leave this matter to you, my lord," Linlin said with a smile.

"It's you who is mainly in charge, thanks for your hard work, Linlin."

Des is just a king in name. Although in the hearts of the people, Des is their supreme leader, but Des's cronies all know that Linlin is concerned about the affairs of the country. Although they all issue orders in the name of Des, these orders are all directed by Linlin herself.

...............

"Des, are you still drinking?"

Ariel came out of the cabin and gave Des a bottle of wine.

"No, stop drinking, stop drinking, quit"

Ariel covered her mouth and smiled for a while when she heard what Des said.

For this operation, Des didn't bring many people with him, only Ariel, who was a navigator.Originally, Des wanted to take Levi with him, but Linlin refused.Linlin said that Levi still has things to do, and just bringing Ariel is enough.

In fact, Linlin knows about Ariel and Des, and Ariel likes Des, except for Des, everyone else can see it.Linlin also felt Ariel's hostility towards her.But Linlin is a smart person, she directly confessed this matter to Ariel, and told Ariel about the friendship between her and Des's former brothers.More importantly, how could Linlin like a man.From that day on, Ariel and Linlin really became friends.

What Des has to say is that the friendship between women is really like a tornado.

As for whether Ariel and Des would be in danger if they act alone.That's impossible, because Linlin can clearly see that Des's strength level has changed from S to SS now, that is to say, unless Garp or the generals come over, it is impossible to take Des, let alone arrest him.

"Ariel, how long will it take to arrive?"

"It's more than a day's journey, why are you in such a hurry?" As she spoke, Ariel took another sip of her wine.

Seeing Ariel drinking, Des felt a little itchy in his heart, but he still held back, he didn't want embarrassing things to happen.

This time Des and Ariel took a small boat with only one room and a small deck, and they brought food and drink with them.This boat was chosen by Ariel because it would be more difficult for two people to choose a big boat.

Now Ariel's sailing knowledge is estimated to be ranked first in this world, thanks to the navigator books and materials that Linlin gave her.

Ariel's face was a little flushed after drinking for a while, but Des knew that Ariel, who had been drinking since she was a child, was not so easy to get drunk.

"Des, was it true that you said you liked me last time?"

At this time, Ariel walked to Des's side and hugged Dess all at once.

【What's wrong with Ariel recently? Why does she keep asking these questions? She won't like me, right?】

Des thought for a while, didn't know how to answer, looked into Ariel's eyes and said "Yes"

After all, with Ariel's appearance and figure, on Earth, she is more than a model than a model.Ariel's appearance is more oriental, but it has a bit of exotic style, coupled with yellowish hair.There are almost no flaws on the face.

Hearing Des's affirmative answer, it was Ariel's turn to be embarrassed this time.Is this a confession?Shouldn't boys take the initiative?I've been staring at you so much, shouldn't you be talking?

Seeing that Des didn't move, Ariel became anxious and kissed Des's lips directly.

For a long time, the lips are divided.

"You are my man now, you have to listen to me in the future, you can only like me alone, otherwise I will be rude to you"

Ariel said with a smile.

Des was dumbfounded.

I'm in love right now?
No way?
Always feel weird?

What am I going to do now?
"That Ariel? Are we here? What are we doing?" Des asked weakly.

"bump!!"

Ariel didn't answer Des, what answered him was a fist on the head.

At this moment, Ariel was very angry, the old lady confessed so seriously, is that how you reacted?
Depressedly, no matter what Des said next, Ariel did not answer Des.He didn't say a word to Des, which made Des depressed. Why should there be such a thing as love? There is a fragrance of fighting there.

Now he wanted to say something to Ariel, Ariel, let's break up, it's fine as before, but Des didn't dare to say it.

He was afraid that after speaking out, Ariel would kill him.

But let this thing take its course.

………………

The boat was moving slowly.The day's journey passed slowly, and soon they arrived at Doflamingo's stronghold.

This is a small island, and Des couldn't have imagined that someone as aggressive as Doflamingo would set up a stronghold in such a place.

Des and Ariel got off the boat slowly and walked into the island.
