Shanks, You Must Have the Strength to Turn the Tide of Battle: The Azure Emperor Pirates' Three Divisions
" The Azure Emperor Pirates have planted their flag on Pirate Hachinosu? That means Pirate Hachinosu is now Azure Emperor's territory!" Crane said.
Others are paying attention to Zesi's reappearance.
Pay attention to the forces recruited by the Azure Emperor Pirates.
However, Tsuru was more concerned about Zesi planting a flag on Pirate Hachinosu, such a small matter.
"Yes, after the Pirate Beehive, the Azure Emperor Pirates' Beehive Island will become the territory of the Azure Emperor Pirates. All the territory of the Azure Emperor Pirates will be called the Azure Emperor Territory. Anyone who attacks the Azure Emperor Territory will be considered to be taunting the Azure Emperor. Half a day after the news spread, the pirates of the entire New World either admitted or tacitly accepted the Azure Emperor Pirates' dominance over Pirate Hachinosu."
"Haha, that brat Zesi has already wiped out all the pirates on Pirate Hachinosu, what's the point of occupying a deserted island?"
"According to information from the Azure Emperor Pirates, Azure Emperor Pirates plan to establish a large free trade island here. Trading partners will include our Navy, the World Government's '647,' pirates, merchants, nobles, Fish-Man, mermaids, and more. They will be able to trade all goods except people. The Azure Emperor Pirates will be offering weapons and fine wine, and they are currently recruiting people all over the world to help them build this Pirate Hachinosu!"
"They just killed someone, and now they're recruiting again. What a waste. But the Azure Emperor Pirates killed so many people on Pirate Hachinosu Pirate Hachinosu Island, does anyone dare to go there now? Even though the Azure Emperor and his crew only killed vicious pirates, they were still human."
"There really is one!"
"People from the Brunei Family?"
"It's not just the Brunei Family; recently, an organization called the Dragon Hall has appeared all over the world. This organization can be considered a semi-gangster organization. They have their own branches on one hand, and they also run legitimate businesses on the other. What they sell is Brunei Wine. Most importantly, the leaders of the Dragon Hall's branches in various places are all former members of Roger Pirates, and the leader of the Dragon Hall is none other than the Azure Emperor. Rayleigh also holds the title of elder in the Dragon Hall. Supported by the profits from Brunei Fine Wine, the Dragon Hall organization has grown rapidly. According to the World Government's statistics, in just six months, the number of the Dragon Hall disciples alone has exceeded 10,000. This does not include the ordinary people who work for their distillery and sell their liquor. If all are included, there are at least more than 100,000 people!"
"Wow, it's a behemoth!"
"Does the World Government allow such a globally spread criminal organization to exist?"
"There's no way around it. The leader of the Dragon Hall is the Azure Emperor. If the World Government takes action against the Dragon Hall, the Azure Emperor will definitely retaliate. Moreover, the Dragon Hall is somewhere between black and white. They're black because the leaders are all former members of the Roger Pirates. They're white because they only do legitimate business and aren't interested in seizing territory, or rather, they don't care about protection money. However, although they don't own territory, gangs don't dare underestimate them. Not only are each of their leaders capable of handling things independently, but the large number of the Dragon Hall disciples they recruit are also not to be underestimated. Given all these concerns, the World Government doesn't dare to act rashly." " The Azure Emperor, the Dragon Hall —they really are troublesome!"
The Pirate Hachinosu still reeks of the strong scent of blood.
When Zesi set foot on Pirate Hachinosu, a very satisfied expression appeared on his face.
"Very good, Bullet, you have a real talent for being an instructor. You've trained them very well, beyond my expectations!" Zesi said to Bullet with a smile.
"It's just the same training methods I used when I was a kid. It's nothing special if you tell anyone!" Bullet said casually. "Heh heh heh, even though it's your training method, the fact that they've stuck with it is quite impressive." Bullet was considered a monster from a young age, ostracized because he was too powerful.
Bullet's strength is due not only to his physical attributes but also to his relentless training.
Although it was just his training when he was a child, it was already extremely brutal.
These samurai were able to persevere through Bullet's training not only because they were samurai, but also because they possessed an unwavering spirit. "Very well, I now officially announce that Bullet has become the vice-captain of our Azure Emperor Pirates, and will also serve as the chief instructor of the Azure Emperor Pirates." "Hey, hey, don't keep causing me trouble!" Bullet glared at Zesi and said.
Bullet has always pursued individual power and personal strength.
His childhood experiences made him distrustful of others.
Things only started to change after he joined Roger Pirates.
After Zesi stormed into Impel Down and rescued him, he finally truly accepted Zesi and was willing to follow Zesi to form a pirate crew.
Even so, Bullet still doesn't quite trust his companions and adheres to a solitary, individualistic philosophy.
He had already told Zesi that even if he joined the Azure Emperor Pirates, he wouldn't lead a team or anything like that.
"Hehe, how does it feel to be back in the military? It's quite different from before, isn't it?" Zesi said with a smile, looking at Bullet.
Bullet was taken aback by Zesi's words.
In the past, in the army, his comrades alienated him, ostracized him, and betrayed him because of his strength.
But things are completely different in the Azure Emperor Pirates now.
When you are powerful, others will only look at you with admiration...
"It seems pretty good!" Bullet said casually after thinking for a moment.
To be honest, Bullet quite enjoyed being looked at with admiration by these samurai during training.
"In that case, the position of head instructor is yours!" Zesi said calmly.
"By the way, let's assign duties and positions within our pirate crew today. Our Azure Emperor Pirates are no longer the small, workshop-style crew we used to be like with Roger Pirates. We now have over three hundred members, and that number will continue to grow, so we need clearer job titles and responsibilities."
" Spencer, from now on you will serve as the pirate crew's strategist, and will be responsible for establishing our Azure Emperor Pirates 'Azure Emperor Pirates future strategic plans!" "No problem!"
" Shanks, I'm handing over the captaincy of the First Division to you. The First Division must be built into the strongest division in the entire Azure Emperor Pirates, like special forces, elite soldiers in the army. Anyone in the entire pirate crew who catches your eye can be taken away. The training department and other divisions must cooperate!"
"Why? Zesi, you can't be so biased!" Buggy was already complaining before Shanks could even speak.
"It's not that I'm being biased, it's just that the divisions have different roles. I'm going to train the First Division to be the sharpest blade in our Azure Emperor Pirates. There won't be many of them, but each one will be a strong fighter. They will have to take on the most dangerous and brutal battles and complete the most important and troublesome missions. So, are you confident?"
"There are some challenges. Establishing such a division will cost a lot," Shanks said with a smile. 5.1 "Don't worry, we'll provide the manpower and the money. If you don't like any of the pirate crews, we'll search the whole world. Anyone you like can be recruited. My only requirement is that, under any circumstances, the appearance of the First Division will turn the tide of the battle!"
"Then there's no problem!" Shanks said confidently.
"I plan to build the Second Division into a force entirely composed of artillery. This will be the first true artillery-missile force on the high seas. Buggy, your Buggy Ball will be put to use. How about it? Are you confident?"
" Zesi, Captain, leave it to me. When it comes to cannon fire, I, Buggy, am second to none, maybe even the best in the world! Hahahaha!"
"The third, fourth, and Fifth Division will be the main fighting force of our pirate crew. They are the divisions with the most personnel of all the divisions and will mainly be the main force in large-scale battles. However, due to the limited number of people in the pirate crew, we will only establish the Third Division now, and you will be the division commander. (Easter Egg:...)"
