Pirate: I talk about the world in the sea

Chapter 145 Marshall Plan (Please subscribe)
After Cronus walked back into Xia Qi's rip-off bar carrying two boxes of cigars, there was an old man sitting on the bar next to Xia Qi, drinking.

"Clo, let me introduce to you. His name is Benche Burt. He is a friend that Reilly made when he was a coater. He has been in this industry for 20 years. When Newgate went to Fish-Man Island, I just asked him to do the coating."

Following Xia Qi's introduction, the old man stood up impatiently:

"Xia Qi, where has that guy Lei Li been in the past few years? He's not here. I don't even know who to ask for the wine money he owes me."

After saying that, he drank another glass of wine and looked up at Cronus:

"You're the guy who asked me to coat, right? I can help you, but you still have to collect the money. For the sake of Lei Li and Xia Qi, I'll give you a [-]% discount and just accept..."

Cronus waved his hand to interrupt Benche Burt who was about to talk about the price, and waved back, and the horse came running over.

"Mane, sort it out."

Mane made an OK gesture with his fat little hands, then took out the check from his pocket, wrote a series of numbers on it and signed his name.

"This is a check for 50, which can be cashed at the bank in the Chambord Islands."

Benche Burt took the check with hesitation, and after checking it carefully, he even glanced at Cronus in confusion. How could Reilly, a poor guy who often drank with him, have such a rich friend?
"I need to go to the bank first to verify the authenticity of this check."

"up to you."

Just like that, Benche Burt went to the bank with the check. When he just walked out of the door, he staggered and almost fell to the ground because he was too focused on looking at the check.

Mane clicked his tongue at the sight.

"Boss, isn't it just 50 Baileys? Why is his reaction so big?"

"Haha, of course he reacted greatly. He usually charges [-] Baileys for coating a pirate ship once. The check this little fat guy wrote to him is enough for him to plate a hundred ships. Just look at it. If the check is genuine, he will treat you as his biological father when he comes back."

Xia Qi stood behind the bar, wiping the wine glasses and explained to the two of them.

Sure enough, Benche Burt came back soon. Different from the impatience with Cronus and the others when they first saw him, he now had a warm smile on his face, and the folds on his face could kill mosquitoes.

After he entered the door, he nodded and bowed to Cronus. Although it was the little fat guy who gave him the money just now, with his sophisticated eyes, it was not difficult to see that Cronus was the boss of the group. And absolutely core.

Don't blame him for being spineless, these days, whoever has more money is the boss!

"How's it going? Can we start working now?"

Cronus asked.

"Of course, of course. I will start the work right away and I will definitely get it done for you soon. Also, I would like to ask again, do you need any other services for your ship?"

"Anything else?"

"Of course! I am also proficient in ship maintenance and repair, deck polishing, and rudder proofreading..."

"There won't be any extra charges for these, right?"

Cronus looked at Benche Burt meaningfully.

"How can this be possible! Just for your generosity, I will give you an extra set of all these services for your ship."

"Then make arrangements, Comrade Tiger. Please take him to our ship."

After Cronus agreed, Benche Burt put the toolbox on his belt and was about to leave with Tiger.

"You wait!"

"Oh, what are your orders?"

Hearing Cronus calling him to stop, Benche Burt immediately turned his head and waited beside him.

"I still like your unruly look just now. Please recover."

Cronus held a cigar in his hand and made his own suggestion.

"Ok, no problem!"

Although Cronus's words were a bit insulting to him, who made him his father who was the financial sponsor? What else could he do? Of course he would do as he was told.

So he straightened his chest, changed to his previous impatient look, and followed Tiger out.

After Benche Burt left, Baccarat, who had been holding back for a long time, couldn't bear it anymore and stepped forward to Cronus and asked:

"Is there something I want to ask you?"

"Just ask."

Cronus lit the cigar in his hand. The girl Bacara and Mane are the two pillars of his pirate group's future growth and development, so they must be taken care of.

"When will you marry me?"

"Bang! Tear!"

As soon as he said this, Cronus lost his grip and dropped the cigar to the ground. The sound of 'tearing' behind him was that Robin, who was reading, 'accidentally' tore a page out of the book in his hand.

"Let me tell you, the wedding must be held, and there must be two weddings. One must be in my hometown, and the remaining one is up to you. As for the bride price, if you are so rich, just give me 500 million beli Well, after you get married, as the captain’s wife, all the money you earn must be handed over to me, and I will give you two thousand Baileys as pocket money every month..."

Baccarat kept chattering and became more and more enthusiastic, completely unaware of Cronus's face getting darker and darker, and Nico Robin's face started to sneer.

"Can you shut your mouth!!!"

Cronus shouted angrily, what gave you the illusion that I was coveting your beauty?

And the starting moves of Robin's abilities are ready, and he is thinking about whether it would be better to break Baccarat into eighteen or nineteen pieces later.

(Nicole Robin: This woman dared to steal my brother. She already had a way to die!)
The sharp-eyed Lafitte hurriedly grabbed Robin, who was about to get angry, and kept emphasizing in her ear:

"Robin, plan, plan..."

After hearing Cronus' roar, Baccarat looked at him in disbelief:
"You yelled at me! How dare you yell at me! You're done!"

Hearing this, Cronus fell silent, and the other members of the Titan Pirates were stunned!What a heroine, how dare you talk to their captain like that.

"Can you calm down now?"

Cronus put the pretzel that had not been returned to Cracker on Bacara's shoulder. The sharp sword blade was already close to Bacara's neck, drawing a bloody line.

"Listen to me now, okay?"

Baccarat, who was pressed against the sword blade, nodded obediently.

Cronus held out three fingers:

"First, my saving you has nothing to do with you; second, there is no way I can marry you; third, no one can take away my money, not even my own father!"

"Remember these three points carefully, especially the third point!"

After Cronus finished speaking, everyone in the Titan Pirates clapped their hands together. Yes, this is their captain's usual style.

"Then why did you save me?" After a while, Baccarat raised his head and asked.

"The superhuman lucky fruit you ate is very useful to me. It has nothing to do with you. If someone else had eaten this fruit, I would have saved him."

"How do you know what fruit I ate?"

Bacara looked at Cronus in horror. She remembered that she had not told anyone about her fruit ability so far, so how did the man in front of her know about it.

"Captain, I have a question. What use does this woman's lucky fruit have to our pirate group?"

Mane sat on the ground and spoke weakly. With his little brain, he really couldn't figure out his boss's intention.

The other members of the Titan Soldier Pirates nodded in agreement, but they didn't understand either.

Cronus glanced at the bar. Except for the boss Xia Qi, the people in the room were all his life-and-death partners. It was time to let everyone know about his plan.

"In this case, I will tell everyone."

"Well, should I avoid it?"

Shaqi, who was smoking a lady's cigarette, asked Cronus.

"Sister Xia Qi, there's no need to say this. Who among us is following whom?"

After Cronus finished speaking, he looked at the open door and winked at Bakis. As the top player, Bakis closed the bar door with understanding.

"Cough cough,"

Cronus cleared his throat. He believed that after he finished telling his plan, everyone would admire him as the captain even more.

"In my heart, there was once a dream, bah! It was a plan that was always brewing... Everyone knows about devil fruits, right?"

Everyone nodded. Of course they knew this. Most of the Titan Pirates had eaten Devil Fruits.

"Devil Fruit will disappear the moment the person with the ability dies and will be reborn in a certain corner of the world. However, Lafitte and I have done experiments. After the person with the ability dies, the Devil Fruit has a high probability of being reborn in the nearest place. On a piece of fruit..."

"Captain, is that why you accepted me as your younger brother?"

Mane, who listened carefully to Cronus's plan, remembered Cronus asking him about the size of his fruit shop in Suigu Town, and finally understood that the boss of Cronus did not recruit him as his younger brother because of his move, but because of himself. family background.

"Well, Mane, don't be depressed. You can still be bullied in the future. Your family's conditions are only part of my consideration."

Cronus couldn't bear to comfort this young man who might lose his dream.

"Boss Crow, what do I have to be frustrated about? My family background is also part of my strength. Why can't the birth I was born based on my strength be counted on me?"

Mane replied coaxingly, "You see, he has such a background. Even a strong man like Boss Crow wants to accept him as his younger brother. Who is dissatisfied?"I'll hit you with Bailey!
What can Cronus say about this? His family is indeed a businessman, and they are thick-skinned.

Cronus had seen the rebirth process of Devil Fruit in a certain episode when he was watching One Piece in his previous life. At that time, he was thinking that before fighting a Devil Fruit user, he could collect the fruits around him and defeat him. Finally, let the lucky fruit user absorb all his luck, and then use the lucky fruit's ability to choose a fruit. After all preparations are completed, kill the devil fruit user with a knife, so you can get his devil fruit. ?
There are two prerequisites for completing this great plan: first, you must find a way to collect all the fruits around you in a short time; second, there must be someone with the lucky fruit ability in the pirate group.

Originally, the first condition gave Cronus a headache. He thought he would never have a chance to realize this plan in his life. Unexpectedly, he met this cute guy like Mane, and now he met Baccarat, the lucky guy in the original work. For those with fruit abilities, God really treats them well!

"Everyone continue to listen to me. The ability of the lucky fruit that Bacara eats can be roughly divided into two aspects. On the one hand, it can absorb other people's luck, and on the other hand, it can consume luck to make itself become better in the next period of time. Extremely lucky... If we are fighting someone with the ability to eat a Devil Fruit, we should stock up on a large number of fruits before the battle, and after defeating him, let Baccarat use the lucky fruit's ability to instill luck into one of the fruits, and then Kill that pirate..."

Later, Lafitte took over Cronus’ words:

"Then we can, not to mention [-]%, but [-]% sure that we can get a reborn Devil Fruit!"

After listening completely, everyone present gasped. As a bystander, Xia Qi wanted to take a sip of cigarette slowly, only to find that the cigarette between her fingers had already burned out.

How does this boy Crow's head look like?This plan is even more earth-shattering than the last 'Master of Dragon Training' operation.

"Captain, doesn't this mean that we want a Devil Fruit that is eaten by someone? As long as we can defeat that person, we can get what we want."

Mane asked.

"Yes, that's pretty much what it means. I gave this plan a resounding name - the Marshall Plan!"

After Xia Qi heard this, she rolled her eyes at Cronus. This guy is here again. Last time he used Dragon Training, but this time he used his own surname.

"Captain, I didn't expect that you have so many muscles and your brain can be so good?"

"Huh? What did you say, Bucks?"

"What I mean is, Captain, you have both strength and intelligence. Hey, Lafitte, what is that word?"

Lafitte looked at Bakis who was looking for knowledge and explained speechlessly:
"Both civil and military!"

"Yes! This is it!"

"As long as you can break up, I won't argue with you today!"

Cronus said, turning his head and looking at Baccarat, who was still held up by his sword:

"Bacara, so now, what's your choice?"

The other members of the Titan Soldier Pirates are also staring directly at Bakala. From now on, this lady can just be their Devil Fruit Converter for the Titan Soldier Pirates!

Baccarat smiled bitterly and replied:

"What choice do I have?"

"Of course, you can choose to join, or you can be forced to join!"

"I'll join. Isn't it okay if I join?"

"Very well, I welcome you on behalf of the Titan Pirates."

With that said, Cronus put down the pretzel, and the next second, Baccarat rushed out of the door.

"Mane! Bring her back!"

Cronus threw the pretzel in his hand to the original owner of Cracker and spoke calmly. He knew that this woman would not give in so easily.

"Yes!"

Mane placed his hands on the floor, completing the Devil Fruit ability.

"Combo skills: rubber slingshot - dynamic pinball!"

After a few seconds of accumulating strength, Mane leaped high and appeared above Baccarat.

Bacara, who was about to touch the door, felt herself enveloped by a shadow, and then... she was wrapped in a jelly-like substance, and then... she fainted.

When she woke up slowly, the man wearing a captain's hat and a black coat was smiling 'gently' at her.
