The Pirate of the Void Throne

distance,

Snowflakes were falling.

A white island covered with heavy snow gradually appeared in outline in the distance.

"Here we are, the Drum Kingdom..."

Kosha raised his eyes to look into the distance and whispered to himself.

The Kingdom of the Drum is the initial island located in the first half of the Grand Route.

This is a winter island,

The climate is cold, like winter all year round, and it is covered with heavy snow all year round.

It is named after the peaks on the island are shaped like magnetic drums.

It's not difficult to get here, because there is something called a permanent record pointer in the pirate world.

The Drum Kingdom is a member of the World Government and is a major medical country, famous for its famous doctors.

It's not an inaccessible place, so the record pointers are easy to find.

Just spend money and find it on the underground black market.

"I'm a little curious, why do you want to return to the Drum Kingdom?"

Robin came in a hurry and walked to Kosha's side.

Facing the sea breeze, she reached out and pushed a few strands of wind-blown hair behind her ears.

When sailing on the sea, it is rare to return home under normal circumstances.

Kosha's behavior is unpredictable.

"Oh, it's to become King Shichibukai."

"Although the life of a pirate is not bad, it would be even better if it were legalized."

Kosha replied casually.

In the face of Robin's questions, there was nothing to hide.

"Your Majesty's Seven Martial Seas?"

Robin turned to look at Kosha in surprise.

She didn't expect that Kosha would be eyeing the location of Shichibukai.

You must know that the current King Shichibukai is all a famous figure in the sea.

Except that Boya Hancock, known as the Pirate Empress, is close to her age.

The rest of the people are quite young...

But Kosha is still young, but he has already begun to pursue the position of Shichibukai.

It has only been at sea for more than a month. Is it too hasty?

But then Robin thought about it,

Kosha's achievements along the way are indeed amazing.

Two veteran Shichibukai have been defeated by Kosha, one of whom was her former boss.

Shichibukai, Kosa is really qualified.

I don’t want to, but I still don’t feel anything.

After thinking about it carefully, Robin suddenly realized that Kosha was really an out-and-out monster.

"If you want to become King Shichibukai, what are you going to do in the Drum Kingdom? Watch the snow?"

Robin blinked at Kosha.

While asking the question, he also made a joke.

"..."

Kosha was silent for a moment, nodded and said:

"That's right. If you keep taking risks, it's not good to be mentally stressed."

"You need to relax occasionally. Traveling, vacationing, watching the snow, etc. are absolutely fine."

"By the way, you can also swim in the winter."

"How about it, do you want to try it?"

Kosha smiled.

Giving the crew time off and providing some challenging sports is a very good captain.

"Winter swimming..."

Robin raised his hand to touch his chin and thought for a moment, then looked up at Kosha and said seriously:

"Sounds good. Do you want to come together?"

"no problem."

Kosha shrugged his shoulders indifferently.

To keep fit, it’s not a bad idea to learn the green algae-headed Zoro once in a while.

In the ice and snow, I lost my way while swimming...

Hearing the conversation between Kosa and Robin, Nat suddenly shouted:

"Winter swimming!"

"So handsome, take me with you!!"

Nat raised his hands like a schoolboy.

"..."

The corners of Fan Oka's mouth twitched.

This is two hundred and five.

Kosa and Robin are completely idle, can't you tell?

Swimming in winter, I won’t freeze you to death.

What fool dares to swim in the Drum Kingdom?

You three landlubbers still want to swim! ?

What about dreaming from here?

Fan Oka couldn't help but shook his head.

This possibility was categorically rejected.

"Aren't you here for the Shichibukai? How can you achieve your goals while playing?"

Robin asked again.

The normal procedure for becoming a Shichibukai is to first gain a strong reputation and wait for the Navy Headquarters to actively recruit.

This is basically the case for all the Shichibukai.

At present, Blackbeard's method of self-recommendation has not yet appeared, so the way to become a Shichibukai is still relatively traditional. The Navy headquarters takes the initiative to find people.

And with Kosa's current strength and reputation, he only needs to continue sailing.

Like Fire Fist Ace, he would always receive a notification from the Navy Headquarters.

Robin has been working under Crocodile for many years and is very aware of these matters in the Shichibukai.

Therefore,

Only then would she find it strange that Kosa did not take the initiative to take risks along the route, but instead returned to the Drum Kingdom.

“Achieving your goals is easy.”

Kosha smiled humbly:

"Krokdal abdicates and makes way for others. It will be no problem for me to take his place."

"Our chef lady, you don't really think that becoming a Shichibukai is difficult, right?"

As he said that, Kosha looked at Robin suspiciously.

"..."

Robin's expression froze, and he suddenly choked.

Ha ha……

What an annoying title.

There is no other way to abdicate in favor of someone more worthy.

People have been killed by you, how can you not abdicate in favor of someone more worthy?

Hearing Kosa's shameless words, Robin secretly complained in his heart.

"Then wait and see."

Robin said,

He immediately turned his head to the side, not wanting to talk to Kosha anymore.

Between talking,

The three-masted sailboat underfoot slowly sailed into the port on the coast of the Drum Kingdom.

Drum Kingdom has arrived.

Valpo, the ruler, will also usher in a new life.

…………

Drum Kingdom.

It was snowing heavily and there were piles of white snow everywhere.

One step on it will leave a deep footprint of several centimeters.

Put on your fur coat, snow boots and other equipment.

Kosha and the others landed from the boat and prepared to walk towards the town.

As a northerner in his previous life, Kosha didn't feel much about heavy snow, he was just used to it.

But Nat is different. Alabasta is a desert country with a hot climate all year round.

"Snow!!"

When Nat saw snow for the first time, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hahaha……"

Jumped twice on the snow.

Nat was as happy as a fool, running wildly on the snow, rolling all the way.

There was also a pig-killing laugh coming from his mouth.

At this scene, several passers-by were stunned.

"Isn't this guy crazy?"

"Quick! Stay away from him, don't get infected."

He looked at the three Koshas who were traveling with Nat with strange eyes.

These passers-by ran away quickly.

"..."

Kosha's head is full of black lines.

For no reason, he was regarded as a fool who was equated with Nat.

Robin had a speechless expression on his face.

Van Oka turned his head and looked away, turning a blind eye.

"Cough cough..."

Kosha raised his hand and coughed, then said seriously:

"It's a normal thing, let him play by himself."

"Let's just get down to business."

Kosha was calm.

After hearing this, Robin and Fan Oka nodded in agreement, and decided not to look at Nat again.

"Kosa, snow!!"

Nat, who was still complacent, shouted excitedly:

"It never snows in Alabasta, aren't you curious?"

"..."

Kosha remained silent and continued walking forward, paying no attention to it.

"Kosha..."

boom!

Kosha kicked Nat, who was jumping up and down, away.

Nat's whole body smashed a big hole in the snow.

His head was stuck in the snow like a green onion, and his two feet were dangling in the air.

"Kosa, um... I was the one calling you just now."

Robin looked at Kosha and reminded him slowly.

"Ok?"

Kosha was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help turning his head to glance at Nat, who had two hands stretched out from the snow and was pulling out his own head.

"..."

After scratching his head, Kosha asked Robin: "What's wrong?"

"There are soldiers from the Drum Kingdom guarding that side. It should be in the direction of the town."

Robin pointed to a place and said softly.

At this stage, Valpo is still the king and has not escaped with his army, and the Blackbeard Pirates have not arrived.

Therefore, people here do not hate pirates as much as in the original work.

Despite the current political darkness in the Ciggu Kingdom, it is located in the great sea route where pirates are rampant, and the basic military strength is still there. There are several soldiers with guns at the city gate waiting to collect the city entrance fee.

When a bearded man with an afro saw the Koshas coming over, he stood up from the stool unsteadily with a wine bottle, and shouted drunkenly:

"Another fat sheep comes to seek medical treatment without knowing it!"

"Be smart, keep an eye on the number of people and collect enough money before letting them in!!"

When the soldier on guard heard the bearded man's words, he immediately laughed to show his understanding.

Usually, most of the people who come to the Drum Kingdom come to seek medical treatment due to illness.

However, since Valpo became king, he dismissed most of the doctors, and basically no one came, but occasionally there were still some uninformed people.

"The entrance fee is 5000 beli per person."

"There is actually a city entrance fee?"

Kosha looked at the soldiers in front of him with a surprised look on his face.

Fees were collected indiscriminately, and soldiers drank freely while on duty.

It's enough to show what a fool Valpo is.

The bearded man who led the team glanced at Kosha and replied unhappily:

"In the past, people who wanted to go to the city to see a doctor had to queue up. Today you are so lucky that you don't have to queue up!"

"If you don't have money, leave immediately! Don't stop me from drinking!!"

While talking, the bearded man picked up a bottle of wine and drank it.

Kosha didn't waste any time and took out tens of thousands of beli from his body and gave it to the bearded man.

The bearded man hurriedly caught Bailey and smiled at Kosha.

"Are you here to see a doctor?"

"Seeing that you are so generous, let me tell you the truth. Most of the doctors in the country have been driven away by the king. The remaining doctors have gathered in the palace. If you want to see a doctor, you can only ask the king now."

"But...it happens that I happen to know one of the doctors in the palace. I can ask him to help you with your disease, but this is..."

With that said, the bearded man rubbed his fingers at Kosha.

"Need to pay more?"

Kosha looked at the bearded man in surprise.

"Yes."

The bearded man nodded matter-of-factly.

In fact, he couldn't even hire the doctors in the palace. You must know that Valpo imprisoned those doctors in the palace and prohibited them from treating outsiders without his order.

And the bearded man is just a little guard. How dare he disobey the king's order.

He just saw Kosha's generosity and wanted to use it to extort a sum of money.

"I'm not here to see a doctor. You just need to tell me which direction the palace is."

Kosha smiled.

The bearded man's face darkened, and he reluctantly pointed somewhere.

"I hope you don't lie to me."

Kosha said something and strode forward past the bearded man.

"Lie to you?"

"You thought you were..."

The bearded man was about to curse, but suddenly he was stunned.

He recalled the newspaper he had seen recently, and it seemed that this man was on it.

The man with a bounty of 3 million beli...

Gudong!

The bearded man swallowed a mouthful of spit, and was mostly sober in an instant.

"I actually blackmailed a pirate of this level..."

The bearded man muttered.

I feel like I can blow it for a lifetime.
