If I don't change my career, I will be forced to become the Fourth Emperor

Although I owed Crocodile favors when I was in Marlin Fandor... But this is obviously the appearance of invoking a teacher to ask a crime to fight. I easily let people break through the defense line and approach, so where will I put my face?

Even if he is the only one coming.

So I bombarded the past as a warning, and then let Marco drive the second ship to pick up the people.

I was very happy to see Crocodile, and waved to greet people: "Lao Sha, long time no see! After we parted from Marin Vanduo, I am so happy to see you still so energetic!"

Of course, Crocodile obviously had a different idea from mine, with a gloomy face.

"Demon girl!" The other party gnashed his teeth and yelled, his body instantly turned into sand and attacked.

This opponent is not of the same magnitude as the one who was hit by the fishman island before, and I can't treat it casually.A trident appeared in my hand, and I turned it across in front of myself.

The water column rushing up from the sea rushed towards the sweeping sandstorm.

After 3 minutes, Crocodile finally calmed down and had a normal conversation with me.

I also specially handed the other party a towel: "Come on, wipe it off."

The other party glanced at me, turned his head and rejected my offer, and directly took out his cigar and drank it.

I conjured up a lighter and handed it over: "Here."

This time, after Crocodile stared at me for a moment, he didn't refuse, and directly lit the cigarette with the fire.

"Your strength has increased a lot in the past six months. Was that also your special ability just now?"

"Well, yes." I took back the lighter and said with a smile, "It's a very useful ability, isn't it?"

Crocodile snorted coldly: "It's not enough to become a Four Emperors."

"Well, so I will work hard." I passed the towel again, and the other party took it this time, and raised his hand to wipe off the water stains on his face and hair.

"But what on earth are you here for? It doesn't look like you want to be under my command."

"You really dare to think about it!" Crocodile glared at me sullenly, closed his eyes, and looked a little irritable, "When did you get the blueprint of Hades?"

Sure enough, he came here for this... I can also understand his anger.After all, he did so many non-human things in Alabasta in the first place just to capture Hades...

But the expression on the other side's face of "cooperating with you in Alabasta and knowing that you are deliberately looking at me as a joke" is really wronging me!

"I'm not Pluto... The chief designer of this boat is BB." I patted the boat, and BB appeared on the screen with an angry look: [Stop joking, Pluto counts What!Don't compare me to that kind of thing!Listen well, BB Sauce is unique in the world, there is no other thing that deserves the same name as me! 】

BB's arrogant declaration was endorsed by a group of fools on board.

"Oh oh oh—Miss BB!"

"That's right, BB sauce is number one in the world!"

"I haven't seen BB-chan for several hours, she is still so cute..."

"Look, that's how it is. The Pluto thing was only put on my head by the Navy after speculation. I probably don't want to admit that there are such scientists on my ship who can develop such a powerful ship." I smiled. , and then put on a reproachful expression, "Also——Lao Sha, don't act like I abandoned you, you will be misunderstood."

"Shut up!" Crocodile threw the towel aside and stood up, "Since I'm not Pluto, there's no need for me to continue talking to you here."

I still feel a little pity: "Hey? Are you leaving now? You are here, why don't you leave without a meal?"

As soon as I spoke, the people below responded one after another.

"Yes, yes, Sand Crocodile, you helped us a lot before, let's go after a meal! Although our first chef is not here recently, we have also learned a lot of new dishes, you can try it. "

"Oh--if this is the case, let's hold a banquet today!"

"Now we can ask Akiko to open a few more cases of wine, right?"

"...Who wants to attend your banquet, sober up, I am not your friend! On the contrary, I will become your enemy." Crocodile turned around and left.

I didn't mind the other party's obvious resistance, so I smiled and shouted at him: "By the way, hello~~ Lao Sha~~~ Remember to come to my wedding~! It will be one and a half years later~!"

Crocodile was obviously very angry at my sudden chatter about family matters, he turned his head and shouted angrily, "Who wants to come! If I really come, I will ruin this damn wedding!"

"Huh? Is this like this?" I showed a conflicted expression, and glanced to the side, "But... I'm really sorry, although I think you are a good person, but you are not my type..."

"What do I mean?!" After Crocodile yelled, it seemed that he finally calmed down a bit, "You are still far from Whitebeard. Since you want to bear the title of Whitebeard's heir, let me Be stronger! If you don't keep up with your own strength, you won't be able to get the title of Four Emperors."

"Old Sha..." I stared at him blankly, showing a moved expression, cupping my hands together and said, "So you think so highly of Dad, but you actually miss Dad as much as we do, don't you? You adore your daddy, don't you?"

As soon as I said this, everyone else was moved.

"Is this the case, sand crocodile..."

"So you came to help us at that time because of Dad... Crocodile..."

"Sand crocodile! Just don't go! Stay!"

"Yes, even if you don't stay, you can come here often!"

"...I will never come to this place again." Crocodile left without looking back.

"Really, Lao Sha is so polite." I sighed, showing regret.

"...No, I don't think he's being polite." Brother Itachi retorted, and then looked in the direction where Crocodile left, "But I didn't expect him to be the first... It seems that the influence of the name Pluto It’s more sensational than we expected.”

"Yeah..." I showed a depressed expression, "Then we all lost the bet."

"...Is that the point?"

"But I really didn't expect the sand crocodile to be the first person to come..." Marco walked over and brought me a drink.

I picked it up and drank it while asking vaguely: "Is there any relationship between Lao Sha and Dad before?"

"The sand crocodile came to challenge Dad more than 20 years ago, but that time seemed to have dealt him a big blow... Anyway, it seems that he hasn't been active in the sea after that loss to Dad."

"It's like this..." I thought about it.

Calculating the time... that is to say, the defeat that year caused a deep psychological shadow on him, and then he planned to find ancient weapons to become stronger.As a result, I have planned for many years to get the ancient weapon Pluto and failed. I turned around and saw that the heir who had caused a psychological shadow on me in the newspaper had Pluto...

This kind of reincarnation of cause and effect will cause everyone's mentality to collapse.

Marco smiled: "But judging by his current appearance, he should be able to hear his name often at sea in the future."

Suddenly, I remembered Crocodile's words before he left, "Relying on external objects and not keeping up with my own strength"...It sounds like I personally experienced it.

He even specially came to tell me, what a good man, Lao Sha.

"But it's a pity that it's impossible for him to join my team... Next time Lao Sha comes again, please buy him a drink."

"Things like power expansion can only come slowly." Marco said, his smile restrained a little, "As the news spreads, former companions will also see... maybe some of them want to come I rely on you. Will you take it?"

"Of course it will! After all, everyone has fought together before... But now, you can't enter for free... Just like this! Let them take the land that belonged to Dad before, but was later invaded by others. Vote for the certificate!" I clenched my right fist and tapped my left palm, and made a decision, "Can I trouble Marco to hand over that one?"

"Well, leave it to me."

"As for the Pluto matter..." I picked up the reward order and admired it again, "Forget it... For the sake of the new reward order being so cool, I will forgive the world government for the time being."

This time, the crew of my main ship made the list one by one.

As the captain, I am now 22 billion, Jotaro is still 1 million, and Yoruichi is still 2 million.

BB has risen to 3 million... It seems that the upper management still knows that this BB is not Pluto's.It is estimated that BB is regarded as a research and development personnel, which is counting Uncle Urahara's share.

The evidence is that Uncle Urahara has no arrest warrant at all.This guy is such a chicken thief, he has been steadily living behind the scenes.

Of course, the most obvious increase... is Archer.

Our activities on Fishman Island also made the world government realize that Archer is not dead at all... Counting the previous things together, then Archer has done a bit too much, actually more than me.

So this pseudo-revolutionary army who did a lot of great things... ended up being 8 million.

To my surprise, Akiko was also on the list. Although the final reward was 1000 million, this was actually a bad sign—Akiko had already been noticed by the Navy.

It seems that Mr. Polusalino finally noticed...

I used to be in the navy, and I also know that the principle of the navy's bounty is mainly based on the threat of this person to the navy and the world government.

If the threat level is high, it will increase. On the contrary, if it does not pose a threat, the price will also be lowered.

Although at present, as far as what I want to do, the price of our crew will only rise and not fall.

When Marco went to contact and inform his former companions according to my order, the second fault-finder also came, and it was the person Marco had guessed before—my fellow student, Eustace Kidd.

"Hey! Witch!" shouted the red-haired young man with hedgehog hair, "come out and fight with me! Although your previous methods were all despicable and shameful tricks, you are now a white beard The heir, shouldn’t he be afraid to fight head-on? That’s the face of the dead white beard, hahahaha!”

BB cut off the live broadcast screen, showing an expression of complete disgust, and said in a coquettish tone: [Look at what he said, senior~]

"Yeah." I nodded calmly, looked up at the blue sky, inexplicably, felt a bit of melancholy in my heart, lowered my head, and let out a low sigh.

"The weather is so nice today, let's give his mother a blast."

The author has something to say:

Rokujo Rhythm Master Chisaki

Lao Sha decided never to set foot in this woman's territory again, but he didn't tell the others to run away, so someone on the other side happily delivered food to the door.
