I only want to be a Shichibukai when I have Bengyu

"Socaccio Eleus...another unruly maniac!"

"People with such power will naturally have little awe. This is not surprising."

"There is no record of Prince Elus' abilities in the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia. He is a phantom beast species that has never been included."

"Then just include it. The question now is how to deal with this Prince Elus?"

"Just let him go. It doesn't matter if the new world becomes a little messier."

"Then, King Shichibukai..."

The conversation stopped abruptly, because the battle in the sky outside had come to an end. The test piece specially selected from CP0 wanted to be injured in exchange for a life, but instead, Elus ended the battle early and searched for it. come over.

The glass door to the terrace is wide open.

The sound of flapping wings came from outside.

Carrying the trophy that looked like a hedgehog in his hand, Elus slowly landed on the terrace.

"Well... what should I say? This is the first time we meet, please take care of me?... Well, that's about it. Anyway, I am Socacio Elus, That... old man? No, the head of state, well, it doesn’t feel right either..."

Standing on the terrace, Eleus gave a somewhat awkward greeting.

He didn't know what to call the Five Old Stars.

The so-called Five Old Stars refers to the highest power organization of the world government composed of five people. It is not an individual status position such as marshal or captain, nor is it a military rank such as colonel or lieutenant colonel, nor can it be associated with Such things as nicknames and nicknames are directly equal to each other.

What's even more disgusting is that few people in the World Government know the names of the Five Old Stars. At least Eleus's grandfather doesn't know it, so Eleus has no way of knowing the real names of the Five Old Stars.

This makes it really difficult for people to say hello.

"Prince Eleus."

The speaker was an old man with a bald head sitting on the leather sofa, his raised mustache trembling slightly, "Our original intention of establishing the King's Shichibukai was to use pirates to deal with pirates. You are not a pirate. The King's Shichibukai is not suitable for you."

Go straight to the point,

Let’s get straight to the point.

He didn't mention the brief battle just now, he didn't even ask about the trophy that Elus had in his hand, and he didn't even intend to introduce himself to Elus.

"Are we starting to get down to business now? I thought we were just going to say a few words!"

Elus dropped the trophy in his hand.

The four-sided light rods condensed by spiritual pressure also disappeared one after another. Without the constraints of external forces, the wounds on the CP0 animal-type ability user healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a carp jumped upright. He stood up, with his hands free, and made a defensive gesture towards Eleus.

his sword,

It was taken away and is currently hanging on Elus's waist.

So I can only fight with bare hands.

Fortunately, as an animal-type ability user, unarmed combat is not his weakness.

"Back off!"

The person who spoke this time was an old man with a blond beard, short blond hair, and red skin. He stood beside the sofa, stopped the CP0 members who wanted to continue, and issued a new order, "Go tell Vasco." , tell him to bring that fish-man over quickly."

The order of the Five Old Stars is absolute.

It cannot be disobeyed.

"Yes, sir."

The members of CP0 restrained their fighting posture and respectfully agreed.

Without even looking at the weapon that was taken away from him, or the person who took it away from him, he walked past Elus, his gray wings stretched out from behind, and then he jumped into the sky. , and flew quickly according to the location seen by Shi Wen Se Ba Qi.

"Prince Elus, I repeat, your status is not suitable for the position of King Shichibukai." The bald old man continued.

"No way, who can I like?"

Eleus spread his hands.

He walked into this unusually large room and sat down on the empty sofa.

"I also know that this request is a bit embarrassing, but there is no way! Isn't the so-called hobby such an unreasonable thing? It takes a lot of time, energy and even money, but what you get in the end is basically personal spiritual happiness. "

"This is not a rational choice."

"Everyone makes stupid mistakes several times in his life."

"Kai Xia Jinbei, are you ready to give up your identity as King Shichibukai?" The moment the voice fell, the closed door of the room was pushed open from the outside, and the tall whale shark strode away. Come in, in his hands, poor Vasco has rolled his eyes and fainted.

This is the first time Haixia faces the Five Old Stars.

He was invited to become the King of the Shichibukai, but a lieutenant general in the Navy conveyed the will of the Five Old Stars. After that, all the people he dealt with were from the Navy. He met Marshal Sengoku many times, but he was still the first Landing on the Holy Land for the first time, it was the first time that I saw with my own eyes the highest powers of the World Government who were above the Admiral of the Navy.

"Yeah, I know what I'm doing."

Jinbei stopped moving forward, stood on the spot, lowered his head slightly, and looked directly at the most powerful people in the world.

He gave a firm answer.

"If you give up your identity as King Shichibukai, you will become a pirate wanted by the navy, and you will spend the rest of your life in Impel Down City. Do you understand the consequences of this?" said the man with a long white beard. , the old man in a dark blue suit looked at Jinbei.

"Hey! Don't scare people!"

Eleus was the first to interrupt.

"Jinbei is the chief instructor of the Kingdom's Fishman Karate that I invited. Don't yell at him because of some minor mistakes he made when he was young, okay?"

Jinbei blinked and looked at Elus speechlessly.

How come he didn't know that he had agreed to such a strange invitation?

but,

He didn't want to go to Impel Down to spend his long life in the future, and these troubles were originally caused by Elus's unreasonable request. It was appropriate for Elus to solve them. At this time, It would be more appropriate to remain silent.

"Invite a pirate?"

The old man holding a long sword, wearing a white robe and glasses had cold eyes.

"What does it matter? The world government can invite pirates to become the king of the Shichibukai. It shouldn't be a big deal if I learn to imitate it, right?" Elus met the cold gaze of the old man in white robes wearing glasses. A bright smile appeared.

"Besides, this shouldn't be the focus of your attention, right?"

"You're right. It doesn't matter to us whether a fish-man who has fallen for himself is dead or alive. What's important is that his choice affects the grand plan of racial harmony. If you want the status of the Seven Warriors, you want to If you want to protect this fish-man pirate... you can do whatever you want."

"But, as a price, Prince Elus, you also need to pay something of equal value."

The bald old man with a birthmark on his forehead and a mustache finally revealed the core of the conversation directly.

Exchange of benefits.

This is the nature of human interaction.

If you want to gain something, you have to give something in equal measure.

"That's true, but...for equivalent things, how much is the value of His Majesty's Shichibukai?" Elus held his chin and looked at the five old men standing or sitting. , "Since you didn't kick me out of here at the beginning, I think you should have already thought about what you want me to pay, right?"

"In order not to waste each other's time, please speak up! What price should I pay to get what I want here?"

Now that the nature of the exchange of interests has been clarified.

Then there is no need to lie and pretense anymore, let’s make the deal clear!

There was a brief silence.

The five old stars exchanged glances with each other.

It was the bald old man with a conspicuous birthmark on his forehead who spoke, his mustache trembling slightly, "His Majesty the Shichibukai can give it to you. At the same time, you must shoulder the corresponding responsibilities."

"Corresponding responsibility? Catching pirates? That's no problem."

Elus agreed happily.

"That's one of them."

"There won't be more, two, three, four, five, right?"

"Second, investigate the Revolutionary Army. The headquarters of the Revolutionary Army is somewhere in the New World. Those trash guys in the Navy have not been able to find the whereabouts of the Revolutionary Army...Prince Elvus, at the last World Conference, King Xienda Lucas, the king of the Kingdom of Illusia, has clarified the danger of this group of rebels. Your second task, and also the most important task, is to investigate this group of rebels who want to be enemies of the world government. information."

"Also, there is no three, four or five." Finally, the bald old man added.

Elus gently scratched his chin with his fingers.

The first one is easy to handle, but the second one... is a bit difficult to handle!

The deep memories in his mind let Elus know that the current base of the Revolutionary Army is most likely the White Earth Island of Bardigo in the New World, but it is just an enemy of the Revolutionary Army... This kind of difficulty He doesn't want to do anything unpleasant!

Although the Revolutionary Army is causing trouble everywhere, developing its power all over the world, and has been working hard to overthrow the Celestial Dragons, overthrow the World Government, and overthrow the rule of the king and nobles, they are natural enemies of Elus, the ruler.

but,

Don’t want to do it!

Eleus has no intention of going against the revolutionary army!

To be honest, he doesn't like to be dominated by those idiots from the Celestial Dragons, but now he obviously doesn't have the ability to single-handedly overthrow the Celestial Dragons and this bunch of trash, so he will continue to live in the world government for the time being. The subordinates are also necessary for survival.

But for this reason, there is no motivation to deal with the Revolutionary Army, the main force that resists the World Government and the Celestial Dragons!

He thought to himself that the rule of the Soccachio family in the Kingdom of Exmundo was not a cruel and evil government. Even the revolutionary army had no reason to come here to make trouble, right? From the overall class status point of view, he and the revolutionary army are incompatible enemies, but from an individual point of view, the contradiction is not that acute...

"I can't guarantee what the outcome will be."

Eleus said so.

Anyway, it’s all talk, do it, get the benefits you want first, and let’s talk about the price you should pay in the future!

"As long as you do it seriously, we also have other informants in the new world." This is a warning and a threat.

Being said so,

Eleus thought of the Queen of Fun Street whose age was unknown.

The Navy has indeed lost its prestige in the New World, but the World Government seems to have not lost control of the New World. The Queen of Happy Street may not only be monitoring the Four Emperors, but also the Revolutionary Army and other important targets in the New World. Down.

and,

The Watcher is definitely not just the Queen of Happy Street.

"If the revolutionary army is caught so easily, then there is no need for me to intervene, right? Well, I understand, and I will do it." Elus agreed, just as he said , without using the memory stored in the mind, it is not easy to catch the tail of the revolutionary army.

Therefore, the first thing to agree to is to wait until you really catch the clues of the revolutionary army and then say how to deal with it.

"That being the case, tomorrow's News of the World will carry the news you want."

The bald old man made the final decision.

News of the World.

This is a newspaper sponsored by the World Government. Although it is not as well-known as Morgans' World Economic News, it cannot be changed in any case that the News of the World is the mouthpiece of the World Government. The World Government needs to announce certain news and release some news. , they were published directly in the News of the World.

Of course, sometimes news will be released to Morgans through some channels, so that the news can spread faster with the help of this big news man.

The King's Shichibukai doesn't have any uniforms or badges.

It's just a very simple name. It doesn't require any ceremony, no one to witness, and no documents or signs to prove your identity. It just needs to be published in the News of the World.

exchange of benefits,

The deal is finally done.

"By the way, there's Jinpei..."

"Since he is the chief instructor of Murloc Karate in the Kingdom of Ecmundo, please take good care of him, Prince Elus. If anything happens, you will be blamed."

Jinbei's life and death were obviously not of concern to the five old stars. He was just a fish-man. Being able to use this to give Eleus a face had already shown enough value. Before Elvus could finish speaking, , the Five Old Stars had already left Jinbei to Elus to deal with.

Jinbe watched the exchange between Elus and the Five Old Stars in silence.

stand right here,

He deeply realized one thing,

Fish-Man Island probably cannot achieve true peace and freedom under the rule of this world government. After all, even humans themselves have not received such luxurious treasures, and the world government does not even care about racial harmony at all.

from beginning to end,

All the Five Old Stars care about is maintaining the dominance of the world government and the Celestial Dragons.

The original purpose of inviting Jinbei to join the Shichibukai was to set up a banner of racial harmony and maintain the dominance of the world government; now giving Elus, a prince of a country who is not a pirate, the identity of the Shichibukai, let He went to eliminate pirates and investigate the revolutionary army, all for the sake of the status of the world government.

The so-called peace is just a slogan that deceives people's hearts!
