I can only achieve nothing and become the Pirate King.

Chapter 411 I Want to Open a Bank
"Zou?"

Sage paused, picked up the wine glass and drank it all, then raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Dover really did a good job."

After he remembered there was a piece of red historical text, which was also known as the "road sign", he was ready to go to Zou.

But the problem is, there is no direction.

Zou, to those who know its name, is an island, a huge island that towers into the sky.

Only those who know the inside story know that it is not an island at all, but a huge elephant, on whose back lives the "Kingdom of Zou".

This thing is life, and it is life that is constantly moving.

Not only is there no record pointer or permanent pointer, even if you know the location, the elephant will move when you go there.

The only thing that can go to Zou is the giant elephant's life card, which can lock the location.

Originally he wanted to ask Faust if he had one, but this lazy cat was abandoned in the North Sea when he was young, so he not only didn’t know it, but also didn’t think that his hometown was Zou.

If he had to name his hometown, he now considered O'Hara to be his hometown, and the treasure house in Storm City to be his home.

Sager could only ask someone else.

Doflamingo, who is well-connected in both the black and white worlds, is of course the best target.

After such a long time, I finally found it!

"Hurry up and have him send it over."

"Already said that, and."

Lily spread the newspaper in her hand on the table. Sager looked down and said with a sigh:
"Why is it still this photo? Can't you take more pictures of me in my heroic form? Lily, you too, this photo is cool, but after looking at it for a long time, I feel like it doesn't look like you at all."

On the page above, Sager's photo occupies the majority, followed by Lily's photo on the bounty poster.

“I’m not asking you to look at the photos.”

After saying that, Lily saw Sager rolled his eyes and reacted before he could speak.

What else can you see if not photos?
He is the illiterate king.
Lily pursed her lips and pointed at the photo that occupied half of the page three days ago but now only had one, and said:

"It's about the Blue Country. After the island was destroyed, and you became one of the Four Emperors, the newspapers now say that you are a demon who destroys nations. Whenever you go to a place, you will destroy the country there. No matter if it's the people or the king, they will die under your disaster."

“Although the impact is not significant, should we find these newspapers and warn them?”

Lily was the most deeply influenced by Sag, and their thinking gradually became closer.

She doesn't care about the public opinion of destroying the island, because pirates will always be feared by people. As long as they are powerful, there is nothing they can't handle, and demons can become respected gods.

She was happy that the newspaper was exaggerating how terrible Sager was, but she didn't like the newspaper's attitude of making up stories.

"How can you control how others arrange things if you can control everything?"

Sager glanced at the photo of a mushroom cloud that Lily pointed at and sneered, "There's no need for that. Let them say whatever they want."

Sarge originally had no intention of destroying the Blue Kingdom, but conquered it as usual. However, that place was already beyond saving.

Ajin is not like that. Green Bull believes in differentiation, and this idea was passed down from the Blue Country.

The entire country, from top to bottom, whether it is nobles or commoners, has an extremely strict hierarchy.

The king used the nobles as servants, the nobles used the lower nobles as servants, and the entire class used ordinary people as slaves.

In this kind of situation, it would be better to just kill all the nobles.

But the key point is that among ordinary people there are also lower-level slaves!

They discriminate against each other, and within their own circle, they decide who is a slave based on the level of honor and wealth.

Among the slaves, new slaves were divided out according to their status, one link after another, layer after layer.

The Blue Country, an island with less than 100,000 people, is basically caught in the chain of discrimination and between slavery and being enslaved.

After the old nobles were killed, those who were at the top of the common people suddenly became the new nobles, and their lower-level slaves became common people. Then the lowest-level slaves were overjoyed and automatically divided into slaves and lower-level slaves, and
A lower class of slaves.

The people of the entire country are like crazy. Killing no matter how many people they kill cannot stop them from wanting to enslave others. And Sage doesn't have the time to play liberation games with these tens of thousands of people.

He was a pirate and maintained a neutral attitude towards slaves, as long as there were no slaves within his sphere of influence.

These people will only pollute the purity of the people under his rule. Sag killed the nobles not to create a new batch. No one can share the power of ruling with him, which belongs only to him.

Since these people are beyond saving, and 70% of this island is forest, and other than wood, other relatively rare things can be found around, why not just destroy it!
So there was the photo of the rising mushroom cloud that appeared in the newspaper.

And the title of "the biggest disaster".

"I don't have time to deal with the problems of those tabloids. Has Pierre Crowe's mouth been opened?" asked Sag.

"If you can't pry it open, let alone us."

Lily shook her head and said, "He probably really doesn't know."

'Big Hand Undertaker' Dorag Piercro is the leader of the funeral industry, one of the six major industries in the underworld, that is, the killer industry. He was captured by Sage and was intended to be used to obtain intelligence on the leaders of the other five industries.

But unfortunately, he knew none of them.

The connections among the six major industries are not that close, especially for the leaders, it is good enough to have a phone call.

But after Sager became one of the Four Emperors, those guys seemed to have gotten the news and cut off their contact with Piercro, resulting in Sager being unable to ask anything.

"Um"

Sager pushed the wine glass forward a little, asked Lily to pour another glass of wine, and then picked up the jewel wine glass and shook it there, thinking.

In fact, he knew from the beginning that Pierre Crowe didn't know.

Few people can withstand the effect of his Fist of the North Star, and Piercro is definitely not one of them. For Sag, it is easy to make him tell the truth.

It was mainly because of his stubbornness that he was unwilling to give in. When he failed to interrogate Las himself, he just threw Las away and let the demons take responsibility.

But now it seems that it is ineffective.

"What should we do? Let it go or kill it? Shouldn't we interfere in that industry?" Lily asked.

"What do I want to do with the killing business?"

Sager rolled his eyes. "Do I need a killer to kill someone? Who can let me hire a killer?"

"Red Hair? Kaido? Or that crazy bitch Big Mom? If there is a killer that capable, can it still be a killer?"

"Stop kidding. What top killers can there be in the underground world? Lucci and his men are the top ones, but even they can't even kill Dover."

Doflamingo's current status as a person who can do both good and evil was not initially due to his identity as a Celestial Dragon. On the contrary, he suffered many assassination attempts because of this identity.

It was because assassination was impossible that they turned to cooperation.

"The killing business is useless. Do we really have to do what they commonly call the funeral industry? Burying corpses all over the world? If there were really so many sources of corpses, Lao Mo wouldn't have gone to so much trouble to find corpse materials in the first place." Sager sneered.

The zombies before Moria were all dug out one by one with their claws, so there was no such thing as funeral. The real funeral industry is closely connected with the local area and does not need outsiders. The simplest way is to dig a pit by yourself, and the more advanced one is to find a local priest to give a ceremony to be decent.

Among the six major industries in the underworld, the most useless one is the killing industry. Just like spending money to buy slaves, spending money to kill people does not bring any value.

As for the money earned from killing people, Sager disdains such low-level money.

"Forget it, just kill him. The body is hanging over there at the port."

Sager waved his hand and said.

"Okay, I'll let you know later."

Lily didn't even ask whether she wanted a ransom or not.

That was before entering the new world. After entering the new world and establishing our own territory, many things could no longer be measured by money.

"By the way, let me report our recent territory and situation."

"I don't want to hear the details, I just want the outline. It's your responsibility to plan now, Lily."

"I just need to know if my plan has been completed," said Sager.

"It's done. Now it's the final stage. It is estimated that in three to four months, we will be able to achieve control of all known islands. And my men are looking for islands between the islands to see if there are any that have not been discovered yet."

Lily said, "The number of our subordinates is increasing steadily. Apart from the 3,000 local guards in O'Hara, there are now 16,000 of them. I estimate that we can exceed 20,000. The World Government has not discussed the population replenishment with us in detail yet. We need to know the number before we can make plans."

"In short, everything is getting better?" Sager smiled.

Lily responded in the affirmative.

"That's right, Lily. You have to take on the important responsibility. As the Minister-General, you will have more and more things to do. If there is something you can't handle, come to me. For the rest, try on your own. You will become more and more proficient." Sager nodded with satisfaction.

What do subordinates do? That’s what they do!
What is a landlord!
Sager tactically retreats.

The landlord controls the direction, possesses absolute power, has someone special to do the trivial matters, and he just sits back and enjoys the fruits of his labor.

He didn't care how big the territory was, how many people there were, or how much money it would cost, because everything was his.

Only when everyone is well, it will be truly good, and only then will things be even better!
"Now that we are making steady progress, we should implement the next plan, Lily."

Sager raised his eyebrows and looked excited: "I have a plan!"

Lily frowned slightly, "What are you going to do?"

Sarge's plan had always been, well, crude.

Although it will be completed in the end, the effort required in the process depends on how big his plan is and how much work there is to do.

The plan that was decided before entering the new world took more than a year to complete.

Now there is another plan.
She thought for a moment and said, "I think we should take over those territories first and digest them well. We are not fully prepared for the war with the other four emperors."

"That's not it."

Sager waved his hand and said with a smile: "I'm talking about the follow-up problem of digestion. The territory is large, and although I enjoy it, the people below, in my opinion, are still a little short. Although they have enough food and drink, and there are also many entertainment industries, it is still not enough."

"To put it simply, I think people's lives today are not good enough, not prosperous enough. If they are not prosperous enough, I won't be able to enjoy more wonderful things."

The more prosperous a place is, the more things you can enjoy.

"Look, they are living a very comfortable life now, and they are starting to become complacent. Anyway, they eat well and their lives are not bad. But if they continue like this, their development will stagnate. I can't just enjoy what I have now forever."

He clicked his tongue, bared his white teeth at Lily, and grinned: "Lily, that's not enough!"

"Dancers? Musicians? Golden fishing rods and golden hoes? Or top-notch food and drink? I'm starting to get bored. Even though it's only a little bit, it won't last long. I'll be completely fed up with it before long!"

He opened his hands with a somewhat crazy expression, "These things can't satisfy me, Lily! I want more! More! More!"

Human desires are hierarchical.

Only when you are well fed and no longer have to worry about having enough to eat, will you have enough energy to think about other things.

But desires are endless. Once one level is satisfied, another level will appear, higher than the previous one.

And Sage. A man with deep desires that are more than what he wanted from the devil fruit he ate.

He has been like this since the beginning.

From the most basic of having money, to owning territory, to expanding the territory, and now, wanting prosperity and more excitement.

These more
That requires a lot of effort to achieve!

"The economic base determines the superstructure, Lily, I can't be satisfied now!"

Sager's eyes widened and he stared at her, "So, I'm going to do something big!"

Lily was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked down. Suddenly, her face turned red, and she even stuttered when she spoke.

"This, this kind of thing, no, it shouldn't be, you shouldn't say that, I, um."

She closed her eyes and stamped her feet, "At least before then, I have to spend."

"Yes! I just want to spend money! You know me!"

Sager slapped the table and said happily: "I want to spend money, spend more money!"

"I want to build a large infrastructure, I want to improve the happiness of the people, I want Storm City, I want O'Hara, I want all my territories to be decorated with colorful lights and colors, I want them all to be prosperous, then I can get more things and enjoy more fun!"

Where is his hometown?
Let’s not talk about military power, but in terms of prosperity, it is definitely much more powerful than the sea.

There are all kinds of monsters and monsters.

Sager wants this kind of monster now.

He wants to be in a bustling big city, wants the people around him to show more creativity because of the prosperity, and wants to be surrounded by stars so that he can enjoy this prosperity even more!

Whatever is fun, come. Whatever is happy, come!
Of course, basic human morality is necessary. Pirates are moralistic, and Sager is even more particular about it.

so.
“I want to open a bank!”

Sager shouted, "No, call it a gold shop! My plan is to open a gold shop first, and then use the money to build a large infrastructure! Well, what's your expression?"

He asked, noting that Lily looked a little unhappy.

"fine."

Lily regained her coldness and said calmly: "I just suddenly saw a bouquet of flowers just now. It's not bad. Please continue."

"I will open a gold bank, inject capital into it, and attract everyone to deposit money with me. The main business is to engage in infrastructure construction, stimulate domestic demand, promote production, improve creativity, and..."

Sager gave a malicious smile: "Lend money at high interest!"
