"These things aren't nearly as appealing as treasure."
Treasure Hunter shook his head disdainfully.
In his eyes, only treasure mattered.
As for everything else, it was nothing but passing clouds.
"I don't care about that so-called Crimson Ideology they keep preaching."
"Once things here are over, I'll follow that guy to Laugh Tale and become the Pirate King."
"Haahahahahaha... that's what a man should do."
His eyes were filled with madness.
Pirate King Roger's treasure!!
Countless pirates across the Great Sea were flocking toward it.
Who wouldn't want it?
And this opportunity was right before him.
As long as the matters here were settled,
he could successfully accomplish it.
By following the right person, he could save decades of effort.
As for the insane remarks from Treasure Hunter and Bakin,
Crocodile merely glanced at them before looking away.
They were like two idiots.
"Hehehehehe... the situation isn't as optimistic as you think."
"You should have already seen the newspapers."
"The Expo has become known to everyone. Countless pirates across the Great Sea have already set out for this place."
"In just a few days, this place will probably become a madhouse. Even the Marines won't just sit back and do nothing."
"When that time comes, this place will be packed with powerful people. Can Bullet really handle the commotion he's caused??"
Although Crocodile knew that Bullet was extremely powerful,
several Great Pirates were coming here as well.
He didn't think Bullet could wipe everyone out in one fell swoop.
It looked like he would have to wait and see.
If things went wrong, he had to flee at the first opportunity.
Bang—
Just as Crocodile made that decision,
a violent explosion suddenly rang out from somewhere outside.
Even the room where they were staying was affected.
