Struggle to build a country in the world of pirates

The manager of the casino appeared, "This most expensive guest, our boss would like to ask you to move to the VIP room."

"You can't even exchange this little money, can you?" Lei Luo said provocatively.

"Looking at what you said, those of us who run the casino are naturally not robbers, but follow the rules."

"Okay then, let's go see the VIP room"

Lei Luo and the others came to a basement. There was a large and spacious room inside, which was more like someone's oversized office. The sea water could be seen through the glass outside. This was a room under the sea.

Lei Luo was also looking at the room curiously. At this moment, a man with a slicked back hair and a black cloak appeared in front of him. I don’t dare to compliment you on your over-the-top good looks]

"I didn't expect that the overlord of the East China Sea, His Highness Lei Luo of the Hanas Empire, would come to Alabasta and come to this small casino in person. What are you doing in my territory?"

Lei Luo looked at Crocodile in surprise: "Who are you? There's nothing wrong with you. You're talking as if you are the king of Alabasta."

Crocodile said confidently: "You don't know who I am? Aren't you here just for me?"

"Are you so narcissistic? You can't get the money to open a casino, but you still have the nerve to say, take out the money quickly, or else I'll use your casino as a mortgage."

"Boy, you may be able to dominate in the East China Sea, but this is not the East China Sea. This is the Grand Line. I am Crocodile, and I have the final say here." Crocodile roared loudly.

Nancy also followed Meiya's example, and took out a notebook in a decent manner, and read: "Sha Crocodile, who was offered a bounty of 8100 million Baileys by the Navy, [a user with the natural "Shasha Fruit" ability], as the first half of the Great Line. Supernova, after being defeated by Whitebeard in the New World, his whereabouts are unknown.”

When Crocodile heard about his situation, his veins bulged with anger [What does it mean to be missing after being defeated].

Lei Luo sat on the sofa and said to Crocodile, "So, you can't afford the money and are prepared to reveal your identity for intimidation. Are you serious?"

Crocodile had a so-so expression.

Lei Luo stood up and said: "Let's go outside and solve it. After all, this place will be my territory from now on. I'm afraid of damaging it. To be honest, I still like this underwater office very much."

Crocodile was even more angry, but he thought that what the other party said was reasonable. If it was broken here, he would have to pay for it.

Originally, Crocodile thought that his reputation was big enough, [I thought the other party could give up and retreat, but I didn't expect that this kid was too arrogant, so he could catch him and extort a huge sum of money].

After Lei Luo and the others left the casino, they came to the square in front of the casino. Dora did not pull out the black-devouring sword, but just pulled out the heavy sword that he usually trained.

Crocodile also stood there confidently and motionless. Dora said: "Aren't you going to release your ability?"

"There is no need to deal with you guys from the East China Sea. They are a bunch of guys who don't know the heights of heaven and earth." Crocodile said contemptuously.

Dora shook her head and disappeared in a flash. While Crocodile was looking around in surprise, he only felt that his abdomen was hit by a heavy object. The blood and blood surged inside, and his body was weak. He felt that he had broken several ribs.

He covered his abdomen with one hand and couldn't stand any longer. He fell to his knees and held his other hand on the ground, spitting out a large mouthful of blood.

[What's going on? How could I be defeated? It only took one blow. It's impossible. I'm a [Nature-type "Shasha Fruit" ability user]. It's impossible to hurt me. 】

Dora grabbed Crocodile's head with one hand. Crocodile was just about to elementalize, but found that he couldn't activate his ability and could only be pressed to the ground and rubbed.

Lei Luo came over, squatted down and looked at Crocodile, "Now you know how high the sky is! Nancy, cuff him with seastone handcuffs."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Lei Luo and the others escorted Crocodile back to the casino. The casino manager was dumbfounded when he saw this scene. Lei Luo said to the manager: "Your boss has mortgaged this casino to me, and now I am the owner of this casino." , you cooperate with my subordinates to carry out inventory, renovate and reopen."

The manager said tremblingly, "Okay, sir, please come this way."

Lei Luo took Crocodile back to the underground office. Lei Luo looked at Crocodile who looked unconvinced and said: "Why, if you are not convinced, you lose if you lose. Don't act like a child and make trouble." temper."

"Whoever lost his temper, I just don't want to accept it."

"Don't think that if you say such things, I will accept you for my use. I am not interested in conquering you. Tell me what you are doing here?"

"There's nothing I can't say. I just lost to Whitebeard in the New World, then returned to Paradise, founded the Baroque Working Society, and prepared for a comeback."

"It's that simple?", "It's that simple!"

"Okay, I believe what you said, I can let you go, but you have to agree to a few conditions for me, or do a few things for me."

"I won't be your subordinate?" Crocodile said arrogantly.

Lei Luo smiled and said: "Who the f*ck said that I want to take you as my subordinate? Your life has been taken, and the casino money has been used as a bet to pay off the debt. In order to survive, do you have to spend money to redeem yourself? , I don’t want to do this, so I’d rather exchange it with the Navy for 8100 million Baileys, although it’s a bit less.”

"Why don't you want me to be your subordinate?"

"Why don't I want you? Why are you so angry? Let me tell you. You are a pirate. I am the leader of a country and a righteous party. I am afraid of being dragged down by your reputation. Although you are [ Natural "Shasha Fruit" ability user], the top Devil Fruit ability user, but there are also strong people around me, do you understand?" Crocodile nodded.

"Back to the conditions just now, firstly, I want you to find five devil fruits for me within five years. Secondly, you and your people will retreat when they see my people and territory with the flag of Hanas. Thirdly, if you find someone The people in Hanas who are not good for me must be cleared out. This is in the Grand Line, and I don’t want some little shrimps to always make trouble in front of me. 4. If one day, I like one of your subordinates, you have to let them go. .Can these four points be met?”

"First point, I can't guarantee it. Devil fruits are too rare. Even if they are available on the underground black market, they are expensive and I can't afford them. Within ten years, I can."

"Okay, one pill every two years, it's not too much!", "No problem."

Lei Luo smiled and said to Crocodile: "I'm going to start a bank here. If you have any problems with funds later, you can come and borrow it. Within 500 million, you don't need to make any guarantee."

Crocodile ignored it and left. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
