Pirates: The first partner is Tom cat

Chapter 103 The people who were tricked by Zhang Daye

Early the next morning, Zhang Da also saw a piece of news from Alabasta.

It is said that Shichibukai Crocodile alone defeated dozens of pirates and protected the safety of residents near the port.

There is a photo attached to it. Crocodile has his hair combed back, a cigar in his mouth, a big gold hook in his hand, and a coat or a fur collar on his body. Wearing like this in the desert is indeed a ruthless person.

Crocodile's deeds were boasted in the news. After all, the more actively he suppressed pirates, the more he could prove the correctness of the policy of the world government's Shichibukai.

"This guy is still playing the role of a hero. It feels like he is smiling happily." Compared with him, Zhang Da is not so happy.

Because after sending Kaimi away yesterday, Zhang Da also counted the harvest, and only then remembered that he forgot to ask Mr. 3 how they got here. When he thought that he might have missed the income from selling the boat, he felt a blood loss.

Counting his previous income, Zhang Daye now has more than [-] million Baileys in his hand, and there is still more to buy a Crocodile.

At this time, Crocodile, worth 8100 million Baileys, was really hiding in his office, thinking about his plan.

Since he suffered a disastrous defeat in challenging Whitebeard, Crocodile has been disheartened for a while. The man known as the world's strongest made him see no hope of defeating with his own ability.

But Crocodile's dream has not changed, he still wants to become One Piece.

Since you can't do it with your personal strength alone, you should pursue military strength. As long as you have the ancient weapon Pluto that can sink an island with one shot, you will be able to easily defeat any pirate group!
So Crocodile settled in Alabasta, he secretly learned that there are clues about Hades hidden here, and choosing this country where most of the land is desert will not arouse anyone's suspicion, after all, his ability is natural Department of rustling fruit.

Everything is going well so far, and Shichibukai Crocodile, who is known as a hero in Alabasta, is gaining more and more prestige.

And the baroque work club established by the secret identity Mr.0 is also growing day by day. However, it is no surprise that the "historical text" that records the information of Pluto, he needs someone to help interpret it.

Crocodile took out a reward order for a little black-haired girl: "Nicole Robin, where are you?"

"Puru puru puru..." The voice of the phone bug interrupted Crocodile's meditation, it was the phone bug dedicated to Mr.0.

"Boss, this is Miss. Two fingers."

Miss.Double Finger should actually be translated as New Year’s Day according to the code name rules of the Baroque Work Club. Because January 1st is like two fingers, it is called two fingers or two fingers.

"What's the matter?" Crocodile said calmly.

"Since the morning, there have been many people hiding around the Spider Coffee Shop, suspected soldiers of the King's Army."

Crocodile lightly bit the cigar in his mouth: "Are you exposed?"

"No, my current identity is still Bora, the proprietress of the Spider Coffee Shop. It may be that someone among the senior agents has leaked the true purpose of this shop." Miss. Only Mr.0 and Mr.1 know the true identity of her fingers.

She has been running the coffee shop under the pseudonym Paula, which serves as a gathering place for senior agents. In a sense, it can be regarded as the headquarters of the Baroque Works.

Her disguise has not been seen for a long time, although it is only a disguise of wearing black-rimmed glasses and a colorful turban.

In the anime, it was not until she took the initiative to reveal her identity before the final action that other senior agents knew that the proprietress was also a companion of herself and others.

Crocodile ordered: "It can't be used there. If the identity is not revealed, go bankrupt or transfer it after a while."

"Yes." Miss. understood what he meant with her fingers. If her identity is not revealed, she can go bankrupt after a while, but if her identity is revealed, she should be disposed of.

Crocodile leaned back on his chair, puffing, knowing that the only people in that coffee shop with codenames before 5 and their partners, and the people who are most likely to have problems now... are those people who went to Chambord? ?
"Puru puru puru..." The voice sounded again gave Crocodile a bad feeling.

"Boss, this is Mr. 1."

"what's up?"

"Several million elders were arrested in Albana, the capital of Alabasta. I have already dealt with them, but those people managed to sneak into the king's army. They did not perform any tasks when they were arrested. Things are a bit strange .” It was rare for Mr.1 to say so many words at once.

The combat power of the million elders in the Baroque Workhouse is generally at the level of miscellaneous soldiers, but their ultimate mission is very important, such as deliberately firing the first shot when the king's army and the rebel army confront each other to intensify the conflict.

People like this usually just need to lurk in peace of mind, and don't have any special tasks.

"I see, inform other senior agents, pay attention to concealing your identity during this period, and suspend all kinds of missions in Alabasta." This is no longer strange, it must be someone who betrayed, Crocodile needs to investigate how it happened thing.

Until his desk was covered with a report from the unlucky duo - a few torn papers from a sketchbook:

The paintings of Mr.3 who were defeated, the portraits of the people in the tavern who defeated them, and the portrait of Biznis who issued the mission.

"Did the Navy learn about Baroque Works through Mr. 3, and then contacted Alabasta?" Crocodile guessed.

"A small tavern can easily defeat three senior agents, can you fight for it?" Crocodile looked at the people in the tavern without cursing them in a hurry, but first thought of wooing them.

Baroque needs talents like them. When he finds the battleship Pluto in the future, it will also need manpower to control it. It is of course a good thing to have a few more powerful subordinates.

"As for this Bizinis..." Crocodile re-dialed Mr.1's phone number, "Go and solve a person, and the information will be sent by the unlucky duo."

"Yes, Boss." Mr. 1 is a cold killer, and he answered cleanly.

This is what Crocodile appreciates most about him, unlike Mr. 3 who is always complacent with his own schemes, but ended up causing him so much trouble.

……

Great route, gourmet city.

Biznis hasn't been feeling very well recently. Ever since he contacted the Baroque Work Agency, he always feels that someone is staring at him, which makes him feel restless from time to time.

Even in the famous food city, there is not much appetite.

In the past two days, he occasionally regretted that he shouldn't have taken such a big risk to provoke a large criminal organization, and even once had the idea of ​​leaving the great sea route and fleeing to the world.

Although he felt that he hadn't revealed any flaws, he shouldn't be noticed.

"Could it be that they recently robbed the business of some colleagues and made them want to target me?"

What he didn't expect was that the first people to find him were not some colleagues or criminal organizations, but a few black suits.
