Pirates: Building a Pirate Family.

Although the Buggy Pirates seem to be quite powerful on the surface, in fact, the only ones who can really make the decisions are Mihawk and Crocodile.

Regarding this, not only the World Government is aware of it, but even the top naval officials are also well aware of it.

However, what is strange is that even so, they never took any substantial action against Bucky.

The reason is not difficult to understand. After some investigation and analysis, everyone found that although Mihawk and Crocodile are powerful, their control over the nearly 100,000 pirate members of the Buggy Pirates is very limited.

After all, in the entire pirate group, Buggy is the core figure with absolute prestige. If Buggy is lost, this huge pirate team will probably collapse and fall apart in an instant.

Because in the entire Buggy Pirates, there is no other person like Buggy who has enough prestige to rule these 100,000 pirates.

This is why the Five Elders always insisted on identifying Buggy as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that the Buggy Pirates are the only remaining powerful force in the entire New World, except for the Rockefeller family.

Although the number of islands they occupied was small, they played a vital role - they served as a buffer zone between the Rockefeller kingdom and the vast red earth continent.

Such critical strategic significance means that the World Government cannot sit idly by and watch the Buggy Pirates go to ruin. On the contrary, it must provide them with strong support.

To some extent, the value of the Buggy Pirates to the World Government even exceeds that of the Navy.

As for why the Buggy Pirates still has nearly 100,000 pirate members, it is actually not difficult to understand.

Back then, the mighty army of 100,000 pirates had encountered a fierce attack from the Rockefeller Kingdom, and were eventually almost massacred, with only a handful of core cadres surviving.

In the days that followed, the Rockefeller Kingdom was unstoppable and won battle after battle. After defeating many powerful opponents, it dominated the New World and began to build a huge and unified empire.

Naturally, in order to maintain stability and tranquility within the country, they must begin to eliminate potential destabilizing factors within the country.

The pirate group has undoubtedly become one of the key targets of rectification.

As a result, a group of young Rockefeller family members, led by Esdeath, stepped forward and resolutely launched a large-scale purge operation that lasted for four years.

A bloody massacre was taking place. Those who were considered unstable factors were hunted down mercilessly, and their blood dyed the land red, flowing like a raging river.

Faced with such a cruel situation, the remaining people fled in panic, and they finally chose to join the Buggy Pirates for shelter.

Surprisingly, the Rockefeller Kingdom remained silent on the Buggy Pirates, seemingly fearing them.

This situation quickly spread, and some people began to speculate whether the Rockefeller Kingdom was really afraid of the strength of the Buggy Pirates.

Such rumors became more and more intense, causing more and more unstable elements to flock to the area under the jurisdiction of the Buggy Pirates without hesitation.

You know, it's not just pirates who resist the rule of the Rockefeller Kingdom, but also various forces such as nobles, businessmen, and kings of various countries.

In order to protect themselves, these people joined the Buggy Pirates to seek a safe place.

As a result, the Buggy Pirates, which were originally on the verge of disbanding, saw their numbers soar like a rocket in just less than half a year, and quickly returned to the size of their former heyday.

When Charlotte heard this astonishing news, he couldn't help but be amazed.

This domineering luck is so terrifying!

Navy Headquarters.

Crocodile led his subordinates in a thrilling and life-and-death battle with the Whitebeard Pirates.

After a long and fierce battle, Crocodile finally succeeded in eliminating the many small fish guarding Whitebeard.

At this moment, he once again stood proudly in front of Whitebeard, and there was a tense and solemn atmosphere between the two sides.

"He's getting closer!"

Crocodile stared at the towering figure like a mountain not far away - Whitebeard, his eyes burning with raging rage and extremely strong murderous intent.

"What a troublesome fellow! Why did he choose to come and disrupt things at such a critical moment?"

Whitebeard lowered his head slightly, looking down at Crocodile who was looking ferocious below, with undisguised contempt and disdain revealed in the depths of his eyes.

"We must not let this guy get close to Dad!"

The many crew members guarding Whitebeard roared in unison, and then they held their weapons without hesitation and rushed towards Crocodile like a tide.

However, facing the overwhelming enemy, Crocodile just waved his hand casually.

In an instant, the yellow sand in the sky roared and galloped like a wild horse, and swept towards the "small fry" around who dared to come forward to provoke it with an overwhelming force.

In the blink of an eye, a breathtaking sandstorm that covered the sky and the sun suddenly formed. The powerful suction force caused both the navy who were on high alert and the fearless pirates to be inevitably sucked into it.

At this moment, a roar resounded through the sky: "Flashing Explosion!"

It turned out that when Joz saw Crocodile approaching Whitebeard, his whole body flashed with light and he instantly completed the transformation into diamond.

Then he rushed straight towards Crocodile like a cannonball.

At this moment, Crocodile's attention was all focused on Whitebeard in front of him, and he was completely unaware that there was such a dangerous enemy hiding behind him.

As a result, he was caught off guard and was hit by Joz's sudden rush. His whole body was knocked upside down and a large stream of bright red blood spurted out of his mouth.

However, it is worth mentioning that Crocodile is not an ordinary person after all.

Perhaps it was because he had experienced countless life-and-death battles over a long period of time, so even after suffering such a heavy blow, he was still able to quickly stabilize his body and react.

It seems that he has gradually developed a strong resistance and unyielding will through repeated abuses.

Just at the moment when it is about to make close contact with the ground.
