I was a pirate, but I was given a Death panel

Brand new branch building.

In the office of the branch chief.

Looking at the two knives placed on the table, Sean was thinking.

One of them is the thunder that Sean is currently using, and the other is the one that was originally built. One of the four can be called a shallow striker.

Of course, it is the worst quality one.

The knife didn't fit Sean, and Sean didn't want to use it.

After all, according to experience, this is at best a Zanpakuto of the rank of a chief official.

And let others use it, it is not the time yet.

After all, it is impossible to give it out without ensuring that the other party is loyal to the other party, or someone like Taotu will definitely not betray him.

Of course, just not now.

On the one hand, there is the issue of confidentiality, and on the other hand, the use of Zanpakutō by local pirates, in the case of Momo Usagi, not only consumes physical strength, but also consumes Haki.

It can be seen from Sean's experience that learning domineering will automatically default to spiritual power. In the system, spiritual power and domineering are interoperable to a certain extent. This is also reflected in the things created by the system. ..

Such as Zanpakutō.

At least that's the case when it comes to activating the Zanpakutō.

Currently, among the sixteen branches, no one can use Haki except for Instructor Sanders.

Obviously, in this case, even if a group of die-hard loyalists can be cultivated, there is no way to use the Zanpakutō.

In Sean's original plan, in addition to forming an elite pirate guerrilla team, he would also select a group of diehards among them to create the core team of a special Zanpakutō system.

But this plan can only wait a little longer...

dong dong dong...

"Come in!"

"Lucci, what's going on?"

Seeing that the person pushing the door was Lu Qi, he asked.

"Commodore, reporting from the defensive wall, a ship was found southeast of the fortress, with two warships behind it shelling it."

"Huh? What's going on?"

Hearing this, Sean frowned slightly.

But he was certain that neither the chasing ship nor the fleeing ship should be pirates.

Otherwise, there was no need for Lu Qi to waste precious time to report to him, and he would directly attack to capture the pirates.

Besides, how could a pirate be so bold as to go to the edge of the branch fortress to cause trouble?

You know, after what happened to the Black Cat Pirates and the Creek Pirates, as long as the East China Sea Pirates see the flag of the Sixteenth Branch, they will definitely turn around and run away.

"According to the report, the identity of the fleeing ship in front is unknown, but it did not fly the pirate flag. However, the flag of the ship pursuing behind it should be Doflamingo's men in the Shichibukai!"

It turns out that this is the case. No wonder Lu Qi came to report to him.

After all, the Shichibukai are affiliated with the World Government, at least on the surface.

But, isn't Doflamingo's home base in the New World? Why did he come to the East China Sea to cause trouble?

But no matter what, the person who can be hunted down by Doflamingo is definitely not a simple identity.

Furthermore, this is the East China Sea, our own territory.

Although you, Doflamingo, are a member of the Shichibukai, you are still essentially a pirate, and a very evil one at that.

How can I allow you to act wild in front of my house?

"Lucci, summon the marines and send out warships to rescue me!"

"Commodore, the Shichibukai are under the jurisdiction of the World Government after all. Should we take action?"

"Lucci, the Shichibukai do have the legal right to plunder, but if the robbery occurs in front of the navy, we can also stop it. The difference is that the navy cannot arrest the Shichibukai after stopping it."

When Lu Qi thought about it, it was indeed the case.

Moreover, it is a tacit understanding among everyone not to plunder in front of the navy.

Otherwise, could it be possible that the navy would watch and remain indifferent if you went outside Marineventor to plunder?

But Lu Qi didn't know that Sean still hadn't said a word.

That is...

If the Shichibukai attacked the navy, it would be a serious violation of the Shichibukai Agreement, and then it would be a legal move for the navy to arrest or even kill the Shichibukai or his subordinates.

And Sean...

That was the idea!

No matter who they were chasing, since they could chase them all the way to the East China Sea, the people on this boat were definitely very important to Doflamingo.

And with the arrogance of Doflamingo and his men, would they just give up after being stopped by a navy from the East China Sea branch?

Absolutely impossible!

I am afraid that there is a high probability that they will directly attack the navy that is blocking them.

After all, Doflamingo relied on the secrets of the Celestial Dragons in his hands, but he was very arrogant and did not take the navy into consideration at all.

"Go and prepare, attack as quickly as possible, and at the same time order the marines on the defensive wall to launch intimidating shots if they come into range to prevent the pirates from continuing to pursue!"

"Yes, Brigadier!"

------

Southeast of the fortress of the Sixteenth Branch.

About 2 nautical miles.

A sailing ship was fleeing, and less than 1 nautical mile behind it, two sailing warships were pursuing it frantically and firing shells one after another.

Fortunately, artillery in this era was still in the stage of front-loading smoothbore guns.

Except for super warships like the Navy, or some fortress guns, the accurate range of ordinary artillery is probably 300 meters at most.

Therefore, at this distance of more than one kilometer, it is difficult to hit unless you are lucky.

Of course, the pursuing pirates also knew this, and the reason for doing so was to coerce the ship in front to stop, and also to continuously create psychological pressure on them.

It would be best if a blind cat could encounter a dead mouse and hit just one shot.

At this time, the fleeing sailboat in front suddenly started to turn, drew an arc on the sea, and rushed straight towards the fortress of the Sixteenth Branch.

If the Sixteenth Branch shuts them out because the opponent is the Shichibukai, then there is no doubt that this move will cause them to be completely overtaken.

But if the Sixteenth Branch intervened, then they might be saved.

So, it's a big gamble.

But if we continue like this, we will be overtaken sooner or later, so we might as well take the chance while we are right next to the naval fortress.

"Team leader, do you think the navy in the fortress will help us?"

"I don't know, but you have read the previous newspapers. Regardless of his identity, strength, or attitude towards pirates, that Brigadier named Sean will not let Doflamingo go, especially at his doorstep. !”

"I hope so..."

Although the other person next to him heard what the leader said, he was still worried.

After all, they also asked many navy for help during their escape.

But those navy basically refused!

And even the one who didn't refuse was either defeated by Doflamingo's men, or simply promised protection on the surface, but actually tipped off Doflamingo.

Therefore, in his opinion, the navy is not worthy of trust.

But at this moment, a large number of searchlights on the fortress defense wall were suddenly turned on, shining directly at their sailing ship and the two Doflamingo family sailing warships behind them.

Then, the voice of a sailor came through the loudspeaker.

"Warning, this is the sixteenth branch of the Navy. The battleships of the Don Quigote family should stop bombarding and immediately withdraw from our branch ten nautical miles away!"

"Repeat it again..."
