Sea Circular Calendar 1526 July 3.
Baker Kingdom.
The golden waves of wheat spread from the coastline to the foot of the royal capital, and turned into a dazzling bright yellow when the wind blew.
This is an island country famous all over the world for its baking skills. The streets and alleys are filled with the sweet aroma of fermented dough and the rich smell of butter. Even nobles from various countries are willing to pay exorbitant prices for the snacks made by the palace bakers.
On the calm sea outside the port, a medium-sized pirate ship was moored quietly, and the skull and crossbones flag flying high on the top of the mast was particularly eye-catching.
A head of pink hair is painted on the white skull skeleton. The skull's grinning mouth is smeared with dazzling scarlet lipstick, and its skeletal palms firmly grasp a tree with twisted branches.
"Stay here and don't let anyone else get close to the ship."
A hoarse voice sounded from the side of the ship. [Debt Collector]Pobbin simply told the pirates accompanying him, then turned around and jumped with the [Mysterious Chimney Man]Diesel.
The two of them did not borrow the main gangway, and easily jumped from the ship's side several meters high to the beach, and walked towards the depths of the Baker Kingdom, stepping on the hot sand.
At the same time, a few nautical miles away on the sea, a three-masted sailboat painted blue was inflating its sails and sailing towards the Baker Kingdom at full speed with the help of a favorable wind.
On the canvas of the main sail at the front, a scarlet bat pattern is superimposed on Mobius Strip, which continuously rises and falls with the movement of the sail.
"Little kids, listen up, we are here on behalf of Eternal Federation this time. We must try to be as friendly as possible after we land ashore."
On the deck, Fisher Tiger held the side of the ship with both hands, turned back to all Fish-Man's companions, and warned him again with concern.
The task they received this time was to incorporate Baker Kingdom into Eternal Federation's system so that Federation citizens can enjoy the top-notch baked goods here. Pioneer Adventure Group is to expand territory for the organization it serves, and this is their job.
"Don't worry, brother, we know what's going on!"
"Isn't it just pretending to be nice? We have already practiced it very well, but I guess it won't be of use this time."
A series of cheerful responses suddenly sounded on the deck. The chaos was chaotic but revealed a neat centripetal force.
Since the elimination of the troublemaker Arlong, the entire adventure group has become more united than ever before. Even young Fish-Man, who was brainwashed by extreme racism in the early years, has gradually changed his extreme ideas and agreed with Federation's philosophy.
Fisher Tiger glanced at the young and determined faces of each Fish-Man companion one by one, and nodded with satisfaction.
Regardless of whether the diplomatic skills practiced in private are of any use, as long as this continues, the day when Fish-Man Tribe can live openly and openly in the sun is already close at hand.
Thinking of this, a trace of regret flashed through his heart. Unfortunately, Arlong was killed by the navy, and he would never see this day again.
Baker Kingdom, the royal capital.
The glass of the display window shattered, and the fragments were scattered on the sidewalk, trampled into countless fine powders.
Pobbin, wearing purple and black pinstriped pants, stood among the corpses of civilians. Under his feet lay a dozen civilians. Their bodies were stacked together in various unnatural postures.
Pobbin shook his head, looking past the soldiers who were waiting in formation, and landed on the closely protected king.
"As long as the payment is made on time, you can enjoy the protection of Big Mom Pirates. Why do you have to refuse such a good deal? Or do you want to lie here like them?"
"A good deal? You're going to take away 90% of our country's baking production capacity as soon as you open your mouth. How will the whole country survive?"
The king's neck turned red with anger, and the veins on his forehead popped out, and he cursed at Pobbin.
Only 10% of the production capacity is left, which is not enough to meet the needs of the country's citizens. Almost everyone in this country cannot live without baked goods. It is impossible to rely entirely on imports. This is not what a sovereign country should be like!
"This is the most fair plan I have given you. Other countries that provide us with donations have to pay a minimum of 95%. Don't be ignorant and waste my kindness."
Pobbin As he spoke, he reached out and took off the thick scimitar from behind. The sound of metal friction made the soldiers protecting the king feel nervous.
"Come on! Kill these invaders!"
The king did not answer, but waved his hand. In an instant, hundreds of soldiers armed with steel swords and spears surged up toward Pobbin and Diesel like a tide. The dense footsteps shook the ground slightly.
"Sure enough, we have come to this point. I say Pobbin, first deal with all these resisting armies and then negotiate. Only in this way will your words be convincing!"
Diesel, who had been silent since landing, suddenly turned the steel wheels installed on both sides of his body, and the chimney above his head suddenly spurted out a large stream of thick white steam. The whole person was like a steam locomotive running at full speed, and with a muffled roar, he ran straight into the group of soldiers rushing towards him.
As shrill and piercing wails rang out one after another, the soldiers at the front were knocked out one after another like pins hit by bowling balls, flying more than ten meters into the air. Before they even hit the ground, their tendons and bones were broken. Hot blood spurted out from their mouths and noses, and splashed dazzling red flowers on the stone road.
"What you said makes sense, but I didn't think carefully."
Pobbin shook his head, and an invisible hypnotic wave instantly emitted from his body. The eyes of the remaining soldiers who were still rushing forward suddenly became dull, and they stood there blankly, turning into motionless wooden figures.
Subsequently, these two murderers from Big Mom Pirates launched a brutal and inhumane massacre against the soldiers who had lost the ability to resist.
The muffled sound of the blade cutting into bone and flesh continued one after another. The king stood on the high platform and watched his people fall one after another. The look in his eyes faded little by little, and was slowly filled with thick despair.
At this moment, a raging stream of water suddenly rose from the artificial lake next to the street and hit the two people in the field!
"[Fish-Man Jujutsu·Lake Water Shoulder Throw]!"
Diesel, which had been specially modified and had a flexible body supported by steam, rolled in time to avoid the attack. However, Pobbin was not so lucky and was hit solidly by the water flow. He flew backwards and crashed through a residential building.
Stone walls shattered, wooden beams broke, and his body plowed a straight ravine in the ruins.
Fisher Tiger led a group of Pioneer Adventure Group and Fish-Man members and walked quickly along the dried up artificial lake bed. They stopped in front of the shivering king. He tried his best to smile as kindly and friendly as possible and opened his mouth to introduce himself.
"Introduce yourself, we are..."
"Federation Yes, I am willing to join!"
Before he could finish his opening remarks, he was interrupted urgently.
Pioneer Adventure Group's name has long been published in newspapers distributed around the world, and the king has obviously heard of it.
Compared to being squeezed out of everything under Big Mom Pirates, joining Eternal Federation is undoubtedly the best choice to protect the country and its people.
Fisher·Tiger couldn't help but feel a little helpless, it unfolded like this again.
Federation has become increasingly famous in recent years, and World Economy Communications Paper has spared no effort in publicity. His work has been carried out extremely smoothly, making a whole set of diplomatic skills that he practiced repeatedly in advance completely useless.
He glanced back and saw that all the Fish-Man behind him also had expressions of not being surprised. They were obviously used to this kind of process ending as soon as it started.
"Eternal Federation people, you have crossed the line. This country is our first priority!"
Pobbin, covered in dust and mud, staggered out of the ruins of the building, his face full of anger, and he gritted his teeth and roared.
As a cadre of the same Yonko force, he is not afraid of anything Eternal Federation at all.
"So what if we crossed the line? You were clearly designated as a hostile force by that gentleman, and he didn't even need to go through the formalities of reporting it to you."
Fisher Tiger glanced at the angry Pobbin in a strange way. He really didn't understand how the other party would react.
The two sides have been grudges for a long time, and it would be abnormal not to start a fight when they meet.
"Brother, what nonsense are you talking to this guy? Let me take care of him!"
Jinbe rolled up his sleeves, rushed to the front in a few steps, covered Busoshoku Haki with his right fist, and punched him hard.
"[Fish-Man Karate·Secret Technique·Oni Gawara Seiken]!"
The air in front of the fist was compressed into an invisible wall. Pobbin did not expect that the opponent would attack directly. Before his hypnotic wave could be released, the fist wind had already filled his nasal cavity.
Caught off guard, his head was blasted by the punch, and broken bones and brain matter flew behind him, leaving a radiating red and white mark on the stone wall. The headless corpse stood there for a moment, then fell forward and landed on the spot where he had just massacred civilians.
"Calm down your temper. Even if you are a hostile force, you must make it clear before taking action. You are my designated successor. How can you be so impulsive?"
When Fisher Tiger saw this scene, he couldn't help but frowned and scolded Jinbe.
Unlike Jinbe in the original time and space, who was forced to smooth his edges and temper for the future of Fish-Man Pirates, now he still maintains a fiery and straightforward temperament. Sometimes when facing enemies, he can be more ruthless than the radicals in the Fish-Man Tribe.
"I understand, brother."
Jinbe was silent for a moment and responded angrily.
