The so-called Shichibukai under the king are the seven Great Pirate recognized by World Government. They have catastrophic destructive power and huge combat power that rivals the country. Together with Four Emperors and Navy Headquarters, they are also known as the three major forces of Grand Line.
And as long as he obtains the title of King Shichibukai, the original wanted order will be stopped, and World Government will no longer pursue all the crimes he committed before.
At the same time, even if members of the "Shichibukai" engage in privateering, they will be acquiesced by World Government, but they must pay tribute to World Government if they are discovered.
Therefore, the identity of King Shichibukai is not only a symbol of status, but also a symbol of power.
For pirates who have received the title of King Shichibukai, the navy must not approach their sphere of influence without reason, and World Government is not allowed to arrest any pirates under his command until World Government revokes his title.
Although as a naval officer Smoker he also hates those so-called legal pirates, but no matter what, until the headquarters has not removed their power and issued a notice, he must not get close to their sphere of influence!
What's more...
Your uncle calls that a little pirate worth less than 100 million?
"You can't say that, let me ask you..." Ignoring Smoker who seemed to want to strangle him to death, Kusana shook his head and said righteously, "Is this guy a pirate?"
"... Yes!"
"Isn't this guy's reward worth over 100 million?"
"..."
"Did you also say that as long as you are not a pirate worth over 100 million, you Pioneer of Sweeping Away Evil, Anti-Corruption Fighter—Colonel Smoker are confident enough to entangle you?"
"..."
Smoker's expression suddenly became stiff.
His face seemed to be holding a sentence in his chest, and he wanted to spit it out, but as a navy that protects justice, it would be really embarrassing for the navy to curse him directly like this!
So, why is this guy... such a jerk?
Looking at the leader Land of Grass.
After Sand Crocodile Crocodile became King Shichibukai, the reward order became a decoration. Therefore, strictly speaking, the reward amount did not exceed 100 million, only 81 million Baileys.
But...
Can it be calculated like this?
Colonel Smoker had a dark face, took off the cigar from the corner of his mouth, and said in a serious tone, "Do you know what the identity of the King Shichibukai means?"
"I know~"
"..."
Do you know that you still take it for granted?
Colonel Smoker The corners of his mouth twitched. After the guy in charge suddenly said this, he didn't know what to say next.
He took a deep breath and glanced around at the Land of Grass guys who were smiling around him.
He probably knows it now...
No one here is good!
"As for the King Shichibukai... As long as World Government has not removed their title, then no navy has the qualifications or the right to approach their sphere of influence. Once they get close... they have the power to drive away the navy privately, or even kill them!"
Nothing more.
Smoker's face became more and more livid as he spoke.
After all, this is so embarrassing!
The navy... actually relies on a group of pirates to manage pirates?!
But this is all an arrangement from above, and no navy is qualified to refute it!
He took a deep puff of his cigar and glanced at Kusana, "Strictly speaking, the Navy and the King Shichibukai are on the same team, and the King Shichibukai has the power of privateering, so it is legal for them to rob you.
What's more, Land of Grass is not a member of World Government and is not protected by World Government! If it were a country that joined World Government, it would be able to argue with King Shichibukai! "
Of course~
In the end, it was probably the franchise country that lost.
After all, the franchising countries are countries protected by the navy, and the King Shichibukai is an [ally] of the navy.
He has power in his hands, but in the end, it's really nonsense... unless King Shichibukai is defeated.
otherwise.
According to World Government's approach, he would only give a stern warning to the king of the Qibuhai. Finally, in order to maintain the peace of the sea, he chose to settle the matter!
"Aren't you worried that I will join forces with King Shichibukai to catch you all in one fell swoop?"
"Don't be afraid! Who doesn't know in the East China Sea that Colonel Smoker is eager for justice, has justice in his mind, and does not give in to power or disregard his interests..."
"Stop! Shut up!" Seeing the leader Land of Grass starting to talk nonsense again, Colonel Smoker's right hand holding the cigar trembled slightly, "Speak humanly!"
The words just fell.
Kusana no longer teases Colonel Smoker.
You boarded the Land of Grass ship and still want to get off?
joke!
Is this looking down on their Land of Grass spirit?
After waving his hand, a White Zetsu suddenly emerged from the deck and respectfully handed over a document.
Kusana took it directly, then handed it to Colonel Smoker, who was also frowning and looking confused, and said seriously, "According to Land of Grass's investigation, there is an evil force hanging over Alabasta..."
"..."
Next Colonel Smoker raised his eyelids, and then listened to what the guy in front of him said expressionlessly.
A rough summary is...
Alabasta Kingdom The country is currently caught in a huge conspiracy. A group of pirates are lurking in the dark, pretending to be heroes, infiltrating, and intending to cause large-scale civil strife in the country and achieve a conspiracy to steal the country.
Now as long as the new heroes of the Navy, Anti-Corruption Fighter - Colonel Smoker, rush in, bring these pirates to justice, and return Alabasta to a clear sky, they will surely be promoted and raised, marry a military beauty, and become Marine Admiral!
Smoker was silent for a moment, then looked at the leader Land of Grass in front of him, "I don't know if I will get a promotion or raise my salary, but I know... if one day I go to sea and become a pirate, you will definitely be the one who caused it!"
"Hey, why are these words so unpleasant?" Hearing Smoker's words, Kusana immediately looked at him with dissatisfaction, "Colonel Smoker has repeatedly attacked the evil forces, is not afraid of power, dares to face difficulties, dares to confront the tough, faces the threat of the umbrella, without any hesitation, still digs deeply, and safeguards the justice of the navy! It is the sharp knife that breaks the net with an umbrella!
This time, I unexpectedly heard the dark clouds hanging over Alabasta, and I knew deeply that the World Government franchise country Alabasta Kingdom needed him at this time! The people of Alabasta also need him!
Faced with the coming threat, he moved forward unwaveringly and attacked the enemy with determination, without caring about his own safety, and launched a fierce offensive against the evil forces hidden in the darkness of the Alabasta Kingdom.
Steady! Accurate! Cruel!
A high-pressure situation was quickly formed, the effectiveness of the crackdown was improved, and the criminal group headed by King Shichibukai - Sand Crocodile Crocodile was uprooted, bringing justice and light to the dark Alabasta Kingdom.
Upholding the justice of the sea, protecting the face of the navy, and protecting the lives and property of Alabasta citizens!
This is a good navy who has justice in the sea and sea people in his heart!
How could he go to sea and become a pirate? "
