The desert prime minister in the pirate

"Eh ho ho! It doesn't matter, Kakuzu... obey the authority when it comes to matters of urgency. If I can survive, I will be very satisfied to have you as my friend."

"It doesn't matter if I'm wanted. Anyway, I'm planning to become a pirate when I go to sea."

Cobra was worried that his new companions would dislike his pirate group, so he reluctantly cheered up.

"Fifty days..." Kakuzu looked up at Kobra, his eyes burning.

"Nani?" Kobra touched the bloody and swollen bun's chin with a question mark on his face.

"Fifty days, seize a country, appoint you as admiral...just listen to me first." Seeing that Kobra was about to refuse, Kakuzu interrupted in advance.

"In fifty days, we can seize a country and appoint you as the admiral. Or in five hundred days, we can form a country and form a pirate fleet."

"After we have the country, I will appoint you as the admiral. Together we will become the world's number one pirate group... Don't doubt my ability, I can do it."

"Compared to the kind of rogues on the sea, a pirate group with the foundation of a country is undoubtedly more solid and has a higher fault tolerance rate. You are the captain, you can choose one of the two options."

Seeing that Kakuzu was so serious that it didn't look like he was joking, Kobra fell into deep thought.

Although it is cruel to hurt others and seize other people's countries, it only takes less than two months for you to have a huge fleet.

It still took nearly two years to reorganize a small-scale country from scratch.

On the one hand, it is the benevolence and righteousness that I insist on, and on the other hand, I pursue my half-life dream.

Kobra, who has always been decisive, rarely fell into deep thought... Shit.

The things and roles that Cobra was thinking about were completely different from each other. Cobra didn't think about his country at all. He was just thinking about how to introduce this ambitious ninja companion to his two subordinates.

"No, I don't want both! Get on my ship, Kakuzu! I have my own country." Kobra grinned at Kakuzu.

"Aren't I on your ship? Are you hurting your brain by asking such a question?" Kakuzu took out a navigation chart from his clothes and lowered his head to study the course carefully without raising his head.

At this time, Kakuzu hadn't recognized Kobra yet, thinking that what he called his own country meant his own motherland.

"Hey Kakuzu..."

"what happened again?"

"You held the navigation chart backwards..."

"It's none of your business! I want you to be nagging!" Kakuzu's hand holding the newspaper trembled slightly. When he saw Cobra's smile, he knew that no matter what, he could not stop this man's dream, and he would eventually go astray.

In the eyes of Kakuzu, there is almost no difference between being an adventurer and being a pirate. Fighting against the World Government is a dead end. A cunning hyena must know how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages in order to gain the nourishment of a long life.

Kakuzu has always been good to approved friends; he has always been a reliable friend.But he is by no means the kind of man who stalks.

Seizing a country and paying heavenly money to become a member of the World Government, and giving Cobra a legal identity to go to sea as an admiral of the "Navy" of a member of the World Government, is undoubtedly more secure than being a pirate.

Even if Kobra wants to take that final step, with his identity as the king of the alliance country and Kakuzu's excellent political skills, Kobra's strength.

Through diplomacy, trade, bribery, force deterrence, assassinations, coups, and even land cession, it is not a problem to attract dozens of world government countries for Kobra to deal with.

But Kobra gave up. Although Kakuzu did not tell everything, although Kakuzu still had reservations, and although Kakuzu was still the suspicious and cunning executioner, he had already released the greatest goodwill towards the number one in the sailing world. Friends, unleash the greatest kindness of the cold-blooded ninja...

(Unless Kobra is a prince)

Kakuzu will not change, he is different from the people in this world, just like in the ninja world, he is out of place.Neither his words nor his charisma can convince him. He will always be the selfish, cunning, cruel and despicable bounty hunter.

He is a cunning fox, he is a greedy hyena!He is the vulture dripping saliva in the sky, he is the hungry gray wolf!He is...ugly to the core of his soul.

"Listen, Kobra, I'm just temporary, do you understand?" Kakuzu seemed to have remembered something troubling, and he lost his composure in front of Kobra for the first time.

"I will only walk half of the journey of the Grand Line with you. When the time comes, we will go our separate ways! You explore your own adventure, and I have my own things to do. I don't want to be a seaweed all my life! I want to be a member of the world government. Senior officials! Stay away from this precarious life of escape."

"It's a pirate, it's a pirate! It's not seaweed. Isn't it right? I want to be an adventurer, not a pirate!"

"It's the same to me! Rootless roots and sourceless water are like castles in the sky, bubbles in the water, fragile! The so-called pirates are just a group of Zen in summer! Grasshoppers after autumn! I know how to play Hell, but nothing will end well for you!"

"That's too harsh to say, Kakuzu!"

"Hmph... one day you will understand what I am talking about."

"The person who doesn't understand the situation is not necessarily me..." Kobra curled his lips meaningfully.

Relying on Kobra's eternal pointer and the friendly "sponsorship" of the ships passing along the waterway, the two people in the boat reluctantly arrived at the southern port of the Seven Waters Capital, Seaweed Forest Port.

The port was full of fish and dragons, with a large number of ships docked at the pier and even five warships. The strange thing was that neither the warships nor the pirate ships on the port were equipped with artillery.

[Has it been taken ashore for maintenance? ] Kakuzu just glanced at it and stopped asking.Instead, he concentrated on sorting the luggage and treasures into seal scrolls in the cabin, and then put the seal scrolls with different marks one by one into the travel backpack.

It's just a pity that the seal scrolls cannot store each other. This involves some laws of time and space ninjutsu, otherwise it would be much more convenient.But this is enough for now.

"Kakuzu, hurry up. That guy Rayleigh is probably still fixing nails in the dock right now. Hahahahahaha." Kobra wore the captain's uniform he snatched and paired it with this straw hat. He looked a bit like a captain. , if he doesn't speak.

"By the way, I just noticed it. There are so many boots, why are you still wearing your shabby slippers?" Kakuzu put his travel bag on his back and jumped directly off the high plywood, relying on his solid basic skills. , landed steadily on the edge of the pier.

"Hehehehe" Kobra didn't answer Kakuzu's question, he just kept giggling.

[Mader Mental Retardation] Governor Kaku glanced at Kobra, who was following him with a silly smile, and walked toward the southwest without saying a word.

The shipyard where Jaka and Bell were detained is located in the southwest corner of the Seven Rivers City. It is a very famous century-old shop.

Go all the way to the depths of the kelp forest.Mainly because Kobra was making a fuss, Kakuzu was also a little excited, but his many years of ninja career allowed him to maintain basic restraint. Kobra was always energetic like a monkey.

The kelp forest is a rare sight in the first half of the Grand Line.A large number of fresh Sargassum plants do not grow in shallow sea areas, but uncharacteristically grow on trees.

The most outrageous thing is that there are some strange creatures called 'treeweed shrimps' in these tree algae.This made Kakuzu feel extremely nauseous for a while, and he was not going to eat anything related to shrimp for the past two days.

At this time, the sun was setting in the west, and the sky under the setting sun was like a dark red velvet curtain. It made people feel sleepy and just wanted to find a hotel with a hot spring to stay.

After settling down, it would be good to take a nice hot bath and rest for the night...or it would be good to go to a nearby kabuki theater and have a drink after taking a bath. Anyway, I still have a lot of belongings left.Kakuzu thought as he kept a cold face that said no strangers should enter.

The two of them were walking quietly in the seaweed forest, and a few reddish white clouds floated over the velvet-like night sky, like the steaming blush of an energetic girl on the basketball court... Thinking of this corner... He frowned slightly.

[What's going on? I'm listening to Kabuki and wearing girly blush. I'm too tired recently. Do I need to pay attention to rest? 】

"untie!"

All abnormalities must not be ignored as accidental. The experience of the ninja career made Kakuzu who was walking in front suddenly let out a loud shout, and the chakra surge all over his body actively disrupted his own spiritual flow.

【Nothing happened?No, something is wrong. With my energy, I can fight and hunt for prey for weeks without feeling this tired. This tiredness is definitely not normal. 】

"Cobra attention four...huh?!"

Before he finished speaking, there was the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground. Kobra had already fallen asleep with a satisfied smile, braving a big snot bubble. Kakuzu narrowed his eyes, naturally lowered his arms, and held a flash bomb in his sleeve. Sliding down, a dazzling flash of light instantly obscured the two people's positions. Kakuzu quickly formed seals with his hands, and his figure blurred and disappeared in place.

Kakuzu's body was intertwined with the sleeping Kobra. Kakuzu's left hand waved out a bundle of invisible chakra threads to wrap around Kobra's body, and the figure on his toes was blurred again.

Behind a slightly thinner seaweed tree, Kakuzu's figure appeared like a ghost. His feet were as nimble as a lynx, so that he landed without making a sound.

The earth escape camouflage is hidden and activated silently after forming the seal. The color on Kakuzu's body gradually becomes consistent with the surroundings like a chameleon.The breath converged, and the sensory ninjutsu began to detect the surroundings. The four lines of chakra linked to Kobra's limbs and torso were on standby.

"Buru Buru...Buru Buru Bulu, this is Major General Dalmecia. The first set of combat plans failed. Full coverage of artillery preparations!"

It had nothing to do with the sensory ninjutsu. A powerful roar was heard from the horns behind the tree trunk.

Dalmecia?That Dalmatian?

...
