Pirates: Be the Master from the East China Sea

Rumble! ——

While Luo Qi and others were talking to the old man, they suddenly felt an obvious violent vibration. The waves formed by the whale's gastric juice began to rise and fall, as if the whole world was shaking.

"What's going on?!"

"It should be the whale hitting the red continent..." Roach said calmly: "Do you still remember the huge scars on its head? Unless it took the initiative to hit it, there is no reason for it to cause those scars, right? ?”

"Then why does it do this?!"

"Maybe it's because it's too painful!" Nami held on to the side of the boat to steady herself, and looked at the old man angrily: "You went into the belly of the whale just to hurt it internally, right? You whaler! "

The old man did not respond to Nami's accusation.

He jumped into the water.

"Wait a minute! That's stomach acid!" Usopp shouted in surprise: "Does this old gentleman want to commit suicide?!"

"Forget about that for now."

Roach patted Usopp on the shoulder: "We'd better leave quickly. If it soaks in stomach acid for too long, the hull will be irreversibly corroded. We can't let the Merry suffer such damage."

"But how can there be an exit here?"

Kuina bit her lip and said nervously: "We are in the belly of the whale now!"

"Isn't there an iron door there?"

Roach calmly pointed forward: "Since that old gentleman can settle here, that iron door is probably the entrance and exit he built."

"What an incredible method..."

Everyone was sighing and rowing desperately. Just when they were about to approach the huge iron gate, they suddenly found a window opened above, and two figures who were unstable due to the violent vibration fell down screaming.

"Help!—"

Seeing that the two people were about to fall into stomach acid, Roach stood on the bow of the ship and suddenly stretched out his arms, grabbed them and dragged them to the Merry. The two people fell on the deck in shock: "Thank you, thank you. La! I didn’t expect that there was a boat in the belly of the whale..."

Roach looked at these two people very calmly——

One is a man wearing a crown and looking like a sand sculpture, with two beards in the shape of the number nine on his face. He is Mr. 9, a cadre of the Baroque Working Society. In Luo Qi's impression, he is just a bastard. Little one.

The woman next to him has a lot of background.

She was wearing short-sleeved shorts, a beige jacket, and her long blue hair was tied into a ponytail. She was Miss Wednesday, Mr. 9’s partner at the workplace, but her true identity was from the Kingdom of Alabasta. Princess Vivi.

She deliberately lurked in the Baroque Works Company in order to disrupt the Sand Crocodile's conspiracy.

But her identity will soon be exposed...

The moment Roach saw these two people, a system mission prompt suddenly popped up in front of him:

[The new main quest has officially started]

[Task [-]: Disintegrate or annex the Baroque Working Society] (reward [-] system coins, no time limit)

[Mission [-]: Defeat or subdue Shah Crocodile] (Reward [-] system coins, no time limit)

[Mission [-]: Save or control Alabasta] (Reward [-] system coins, no time limit)

Roach was stunned for a moment.

I originally thought that the new mission would only be to defeat the Sand Crocodile, but I didn’t expect that the system would play some new tricks this time. Three missions with high rewards were released at the same time, and there were actually two optional routes to complete!

It seems that the intention of the system is not as simple as I expected...

My mission may not just be to defeat the enemies that Luffy has defeated!

This is great news. Luo Qi doesn't want to be just a tool. His original plan was to act according to the system's arrangements in the early stage, use the system's rewards to strengthen his own strength, and then give up the mission when he is strong enough. I am flying solo, now it seems that this plan can be postponed a little longer...

Because the system does not completely restrict his freedom.

Whether to be a hero or a careerist, the choice this time is in Roach's own hands!

"Seeing as you don't have a pirate flag, you must be a group of adventurers, right?"

"so what?"

"What I mean is that we can cooperate." The violent vibrations gradually stopped, and the whale had obviously regained its composure. Just when Roach was distracted by system matters, Weiwei stood up and suggested: "As long as If you can kill this whale, it will be enough for our town for two or three years. If you are willing to help us get this done, we will definitely thank you generously!"

"I will never let you hurt Rab!"

The old man suddenly appeared in front of the open window on the iron door. It was he who just ran to give the whale a bottle of sedative. At this time, he had obviously heard Weiwei's suggestion just now, which was enough to show that he understood Showing a certain degree of domineering power.

"But now we're in the whale's belly!"

"You can definitely make a big hole in it!"

"This is all thanks to the passages you built!" The two men who laughed like villains took out their rocket launchers and aimed at the stomach wall painted with blue sky and white clouds: "We will take over this guy's meat!"

There was only a bang—

Before they could fire, they were knocked to the ground by Roach.

"It turns out you are good people..."

The old man jumped from the window and easily jumped to the deck of the Melly: "There are not many good people these days!"

"Can we go out and talk again?"

Roach pointed to the iron door: "We don't want the boat to soak in gastric juice for too long..."

"Then come with me!"

The old man nodded, then opened the iron gate for them, led the Melly into the canal, and then passed all the way to the exit, where he saw the bright sunshine of the outside world.

At this time, everyone finally understood the identity of the old man.

His name is Kurokas.

I am 71 years old this year, a lighthouse keeper in the Twin Straits, AB blood type, Gemini...

"This whale is called Rab..."

After arriving on land under the lighthouse, Kurokas began to tell the story of Rab: "It is an island whale that originally only lived in the Western Sea. It is the largest whale in the world. It would not appear in the Great Channel originally. But there was a pirate group 50 years ago——"

The old man slowly finished telling the story about the agreement.

Nami and others were moved to tears.

"Do you still have the heart to hunt this whale now?" Luo Qi looked at the two captives tied together with interest, and saw that they had already burst into tears.

"It's really unbearable..."

Mr. 9 said: "But capturing this whale is an order given to us by the organization! If we fail the mission, we will be the ones killed!"

"Oh? What kind of organization are you?"

Luo Qi said with a half-smile: "There are such strict regulations? Do you think you don't treat the members as human beings? If I were you, I would definitely have quit and found a boss more worthy of working for..."
