The Worst Fruit Among Pirates

food island,

"The navy's warships appear and all parties are prepared."

Although Rossi passed the information to Garp through Long's channel, I believe that Garp's character would not allow him to sit idly by.No unreliable people will be sent here, but the preparations must be made properly.

After all, in the 'original' timeline, Rossi died because 'an undercover agent meets an undercover agent.

Among pirates, there are undercover agents from the Navy and spies from CP; there are also spies from pirates in the Navy.

"The Don Quixote is ready to go."

Torebol clicked his bowler hat, and after his head was almost shaved off, he did this more frequently.

The Don Quixote family is divided into three parts:

One part was naturally Rossi, Torebol, Pica and Pique who were at the dock.They are both highly mobile people and can easily escape in the event of an accident;

Some of them are Dover, Virgo, Oguri Hat, and Roddy, who are located in the center of the city.If problems arise elsewhere, they can rush to support as soon as possible;

The last part is the Don Quixote hidden in a natural bay on the Food Island. Jorah leads the Gladius siblings, and the fur tribe children are on standby at any time.

In case the incoming navy secretly colluded with that 'Gamenio', Rossi and others immediately carried out a 'strategic transfer'.

It's not that I'm afraid of the other party, but it's completely unnecessary to have a head-on confrontation with the navy.

"Huh? How does this warship look..."

The leading warship is obviously one size larger, and it also has many more feminine patterns. The most important thing is that on the bulging sail, there is a big square word "Crane" written on it!

isn't it?

"Rosie, does the other party have a problem?"

Facing Torebol's question next to him, Rossi put down his telescope and rubbed his temples.

"No, this is a 'good guy'."

The issue is,

The other party is too nice.

It is hard to say whether Lieutenant General Crane, who pursues 'pure justice', and the Don Quixote family, who are wandering in the gray area, will directly conflict.

"Anyway, let's talk less for a while."

"Let me handle the negotiation."

----

As the navy's warships slowly docked, the two sides could clearly see each other.

"Those are the Don Quixotes,"

Several people on the pier were wearing suits, top hats, and sunglasses... In addition to Pica's burly figure with horizontal development, Torebol's smile, Pique's agent temperament... and the leader was domineering and casual. A black feathered coat blowing in the wind.

How could this be a maritime merchant——

He almost had the words 'Dark Family' written on his face.

"Cheer up, the other party is not simple."

The 'generals' wearing justice coats sensed the strong strength of Rossi and others, and subconsciously put their hands on their weapons.

In the eyes of the people in Torrepol:

The deck of the leading warship was actually filled with all the female sailors of Yingying Yanyan!

These female marines are very good-looking. Under the capes of naval officers, they wear all kinds of suits, cheongsams, casual clothes... I don't know, I thought they were doing some kind of cosplay.

However, in the perception of Rossi and Torebol, who have mastered the domineering power of seeing and hearing, these women with swords on their backs, with long breaths and murderous aura, are all experienced in battlefield skills!

"These female marines..."

Torebol adjusted his small round sunglasses in surprise. These women were not weak.

Especially the middle-aged woman in the lead gave Torebol an 'extremely dangerous' feeling!

Even scarier than the previous 'Silver Eyed Lion' Ricardo...

"This is the female naval unit led by Vice Admiral He,"

While unfolding a small soundproof barrier and explaining to Torebol next to him, Rossi strode forward to meet him.

"Don't underestimate them. Vice Admiral He is the 'Chief of Staff' of the navy. He is a strong man at the same time as General Sengoku and naval hero Garp!"

Even if he is not as good as those two, he is by no means a weakling.

"Welcome, everyone,"

The warship entered the harbor, lowered the stairs, and female soldiers wearing navy coats filed down from the deck.

Wearing a black feather coat, Rossi, who was 1.9 meters tall, stepped forward to meet him. Hanging around his waist was the third-generation ghost who had been retrieved. No matter in appearance or aura, he was not inferior to his opponent.

"Lieutenant General Crane,"

Nodding to the leading middle-aged woman, Rosie asked directly:

"Is your Excellency, Lieutenant General, here to deal with matters related to the cultivation and production of drugs on this island?"

"Yes,"

After receiving Lieutenant General He's affirmation, Rossi put down his worries.

With He's character, he wouldn't be able to play tricks like "hiding a knife in a smile".

"Please follow me. The poppy cultivation base is located in the valley in the center of the island."

"The drug transaction records and the relevant persons in charge are already under our control, and we are waiting for the Navy to come and take over."

···

"Mr. Rosinandee,"

Walking side by side with Rosie, the middle-aged and calm He spoke.

"Why did you choose to leave this matter to our Navy?"

"According to your information, that batch of drugs is worth a lot of money. At the same time, mastering this cultivation base is equivalent to controlling a large number of worms to work for themselves."

Money and manpower can bring fame and power. Isn't this what men on the sea pursue?

Faced with Lieutenant General He's blunt temptation, Rossi shrugged.

"There's no reason, it's just that I simply hate drugs."

Rossi instinctively abhors drugs, which can easily destroy a person's body and mind.I believe that any time traveler would never touch this bottom line.

This thing that can force the body to secrete 'dopamine' bypasses human beings' joy, anger, sorrow, and joy, and directly transmits the strongest joy signal to the brain, making people addicted and unable to extricate themselves.

To put it simply, the 'joy' brought by drugs even exceeds that of 'making love' several times, and it continues.

In the face of such strong false 'happiness', how can normal people resist?

"I believe the Navy is very aware of the dangers of drugs -"

Clang!

At this moment, there was a sound of metal collision from behind, making the helpless Rossi turn around.

"Hey, hey, you don't look like a Marine."

The 'lighter' cane in Torebol's hand blocked the long knife of a female marine.

"Really, you don't look like a good person either!"

The naval officer wearing a white top hat retorted, but he couldn't restrain his surprise in his heart.

I didn't expect this wretched man to be so agile...

"Tore, what's going on?"

Faced with Rossi's inquiry, Torrebol smiled.

"It's nothing, we are joking."

"Ida, put away your weapon."

"Yes!"

Facing Lieutenant General He's order, the lieutenant colonel who was provoked by Torrebol into anger and drew his sword put away the long sword in his hand.

After this brief encounter, everyone in the Don Quixote family put away their contempt; and the female sailors also realized that these 'maritime merchants' were by no means someone they could easily handle.

Even if it is 'cooperation', it is necessary to flex your muscles.

···

"how--"

"It's the first time we met, and you stared at her so fascinatedly?"

In the center of the team, a girl with a black ponytail followed Rosie's figure with her hidden gaze, and the 'burly' female colonel next to her patted the 'little sister' on the shoulder and teased her.

"Although the blond boy is good-looking and very strong, he is not from the same group as us."

Before arriving, their boss, Lieutenant General He, had already distributed information about the 'Don Quixote Family' to several officers, so these female masters in the navy knew very well:

The handsome blond guy with a sunny smile in front of him is the famous 'Black King' of Beihai!

In just a few years, he and his brother, "Red King" Doflamingo, fought in the north and south, and became an underground force that was not inferior to ordinary kingdoms. Their skills and strength were very impressive!

"It's not what you think,"

"I just didn't expect..."

To actually meet my 'friend' again in this way.

He was wearing a navy officer's coat, with the cuffs and collar dyed pink, and a long knife that was longer than his height on his waist.

The black ponytail hung behind the already slim girl, and her dark eyes stared at Rosie's back, gradually overlapping with the thin blond boy she once was.

I hope... we won't become enemies with each other.

Who is peeking at me?

Rossi, who was walking in front, didn't look back. When he saw Se Haki, he noticed a look staring at him.

Unlike other female marines who looked away after a few glances, this gaze kept falling on Rosie, making it impossible for him not to notice.

strange,

There should be no enemies in the navy, right?

----

"This is where poppies are grown,"

Rosie led many female marines along the way, and soon came to a valley surrounded by ringed peaks in the center of the food island, like a 'pot' shape.

And in this pot-shaped basin, this sea of ​​red flowers blooms!

Under the bright sunshine, the breeze blows; the sea of ​​flowers ripples like blood waves, and it is incomparably beautiful.

The 'poppy', which has been cursed by countless people as the devil's flower, is actually a very beautiful flower.

“In the past, it was a hibiscus flower, but now it is a heartbroken grass;

How long will it take for Israel to benefit others? "

Facing this sea of ​​flowers, Rosie couldn't help but express her feelings.

——This is of course not a poem written by him, but a masterpiece by Li Taibai in his previous life.

Whether it's 'hibiscus flower' or 'broken grass', they all refer to the splendid sea of ​​flowers in front of you.

Beautiful, but poisonous!

"Mr. Rosinandi still knows the 'Five Words' of the Flower Country?"

"I've read a few books..."

While talking, Lieutenant General He glanced at the "Sea of ​​Flowers" in front of him. Combined with the time when Gamenio became the "Shichibukai", he could roughly calculate how many people in the world are infected with drugs and how many families are falling apart.

"Flowers are innocent, but people's hearts are old."

Sighing, Lieutenant General He turned around, put his fingers together, raised his hand to his eyebrows, and gave a military salute to Luo Xi.

“Thank you very much, Your Excellency Rocinante for your righteous deed!”

In this world, killing people just because of a quarrel is normal.

Even the 'Roger Pirates', who have a relatively high moral level, once slaughtered villages and destroyed countries because someone laughed at their partners!

Not to mention other pirates, the ultimate 'freedom' itself is the ultimate 'sin'.

When the law is powerless, the only thing that can restrain the strong is the belief in their hearts.

However, most of the strong people...

Any ambitious pirate is faced with this huge sea of ​​flowers representing billions of beli assets.Regardless of whether he keeps it for his own business or sells it to other ambitious people, he will never take the initiative to contact the Navy!

Because it is impossible for the Navy to pay even one Bailey's bounty for this, the only people who would do this are 'fools'.

"I'm not a fool, I'm just an ordinary person with a bottom line."

Rossi shrugged again.
