Bucky Is Fearless
As soon as he said this, Hancock bit his thumb and pondered.
Crocodile’s face was gloomy, he always felt that Kuro’s words were a bit against him.
Mihawk was still smiling, his eyes interested.
Only Bucky was carefully studying this contract. The contract on it was the same as what Kuro said. Only the treaty “Failure will be inherited by a newcomer” was not written.
That was a private rule set by Kuro himself.
To be honest, there is no need for seven people to set the rules. The World Government has suffered this loss, and there are not even seven people yet.
“Sign it, don’t look,” Kuro urged.
Crocodile knew what Kuro was thinking at a glance and asked directly, “Humph, Kuro, forcing us to the New World, aren’t you afraid that the World Government will hold you responsible? You are shrinking your sphere of influence now, right?”
“This is your own business.” Kuro said lightly: “You don’t need to be responsible for the top, that is my business, you only need to be responsible for me.”
“I have no objections.”
Mihawk put down his leg from the table, picked up the quill pen beside him, and signed his name on the contract—Jorakl Mihawk.
“I will believe you for now.”
Hancock also picked up a pen and signed her name.
This bastard is right about one thing. Amazon Lily is not bad if she can trade, because if she has a route, she can make a station there to trade. They don’t even have to get their own merchant ship. As long as they get the goods in the station, they can bring them back directly, which is much faster than robbing.
Amazon Lily’s accumulation from generation to generation has led them to not lack money, but they lack goods.
And didn’t you hear what Kuro said? You can choose any station. As long as you find a commercial route, with the tariffs they get, it is equivalent to taking those goods for nothing.
“That, that I…”
Bucky panicked for a while and finally picked up the quill and signed his name.
They had all signed it, so he couldn’t not sign it. He couldn’t lose his Shichibukai position.
As for failure… He has such a group of subordinates, how can he fail? Just be cautious.
And choosing an important route in a sea route is a good thing!
He loves wealth and treasures!
“Good, next is to choose the route.”
Kuro bit his cigar and said, “It just so happens that you are here. You are the first four Shichibukai. I will make it convenient for you. You can choose your route freely.”
With that, Crowe took out a drawing and spread it on the table.
The sea routes have always been chaotic, and some of the routes are on the same island, but overall, they can still be divided into seven routes.
Hancock looked at it and pointed to the route closest to her kingdom. “This one. I want this one.”
This is the easternmost route of the Grand Line, and it is also the most dangerous one for pirates because it goes straight to Judicial Island. It is also close to the largest ‘Sittaf Station’ in the first half of the Grand Line. The traffic is very convenient and you can go anywhere through this station, including Water Seven.
“I don’t care.”
Mihawk pointed at a random route and landed on the one next to Hancock.
He was alone and did not have much power, nor did he need money. These contracts were not very useful to him.
“Kuro, I don’t want any of these. How about you fight me?” Mihawk refused to give up.
“I refuse!” Kuro indicated that I am good at refusing.
“Turn around and pull a flag yourself. Don’t you have a ghost girl and a group of baboons under you? Let these people help you. If you really can’t do it, take in some underlings.” Kuro said.
“I want it here!”
Crocodile pointed to the middle route and his tone was a little angry.
Get up from where you fall.
The Straw Hat Kid defeated him on this route. He wanted to start again here.
“Then I’ll take this one.”
Bucky’s hand flew away and landed on the leftmost route on the map, looking funny.
This route is more prosperous. There are also some more famous islands such as “Kanohana City”, “Gourmet City” and “Spring Queen’s City”.
“Are you sure?” Kuro raised his eyebrows.
“Of course! This one!”
Bucky said, “Can’t you recognize your own words?! I want this route!”
Compared to other routes, this route is very rich and there must be many merchant ships coming and going.
“Okay, then this one.”
Kuro glanced at him. “Your task is a little heavier, Bucky.”
‘What do you mean?’
Bucky was stunned.
“Oh? This route, I remember that there are many pirates on this route,” Crocodile said.
“Indeed, there seems to be a lot of pirates in this route.” Mihawk nodded and said, “Some newcomers over a hundred million are often here.”
The Grand Line also produces pirates, even more than the Four Seas. After all, the pirates of the Four Seas want to enter the Reverse Mountain, so the pirates of the Grand Line don’t need them. They are born here.
Therefore, they also know which route is the richest.
The route that Bucky chose is a route that Marine focuses on because some powerful newcomers often appear here, and their pirate proliferation is especially high.
Listening to their words, Bucky’s eyes widened and snot came out of his red nose and flowed out in a straight line. He stammered, “Are there many pirates?”
“Well, you’re not afraid, are you? Shichibukai, Pirate King’s companion, ‘Thousands of Clowns’ Baki, brother to Akagami (Red Hair), are you afraid?” Kuro smiled at him.
“How, how is that possible!”
Bucky put his hands on his hips and said: “I am Bucky, if those pirates dare to invade my station, I will not forgive them!”
“Good, then I will choose a station for you.”
Kuro pointed to a station very close to the upside-down mountain and said, “Carnival City, this route must pass through the island, and the prosperity level is very high. You are stationed here. The tariff collected here is a lot. The pirates who break into the Four Seas to choose this route will definitely pass through this island, and those Grand Line who want to start over and reach the starting point of this route will definitely pass through here.”
“Bucky, with your strength and power, it will definitely not be a problem.” Kuro smiled.
On the other hand, Bucky’s mouth was wide open and his body began to tremble unconsciously.
But as Kuro looked over, he immediately showed a fearless expression and said, “Of course!”
Kuro’s lips curled up. This guy is very powerful and has a lot of people under him. It’s just nice for them to isolate the pirates and fight each other.
As Shichibukai, they have to ensure their safety after choosing the route. It is definitely unrealistic to let them cruise, but choosing a commercial route can stop many pirates.
In particular, Bucky doesn’t seem to want to go to the New World. If he only wants to develop his own forces, he can deal with the pirates in front of him.
On the New World side, Kuro can allow failure, but in their sphere of influence, if they lose…
Then change again!
