People are sailing, monster hunters are fighting in groups

Led by the sturdy man, Shanks and his party soon arrived at the headquarters of the Smiley Pirates.

As soon as he entered the door, Beckman immediately noticed Doflamingo who had just hung up the Den Den Mushi.

Suddenly, he felt an unprecedented pressure from this young man.

This guy is very strong...

The sturdy man was also a little surprised at this time. He didn't expect that he would meet the boss of his boss today.

"Lord Dover..."

The sturdy man showed a flattering look and greeted Doflamingo in an extremely flattering tone.

"I brought the 'Red Hair Pirates' that your pirate group has been looking for..."

Pica, who was sitting next to Doflamingo, put down the newspaper in his hand and nodded at the sturdy man.

"It's Shanks... Well done, go to Diamante to claim your reward!"

"Hahaha, thank you, Master Pica, you guys keep chatting, I'll leave first..."

The sturdy man walked out of the room quickly and tactfully.

Just as Beckman and the others were secretly on high alert, Doflamingo, who had been thinking about the mission at Elbat, also raised his head.

"Shanks, I didn't expect you to come to the North Sea..."

Shanks pouted and ignored him, but sat on a sofa by himself.

"I'm not that familiar with you.... Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"It's a long story..."

Doflamingo didn't care about Shanks' attitude, but smiled and said: "You know the origins of me and Pica. Because of something, I'm going to form a group of my own team in the North Sea. I wonder if you, a former Pirate King crew member, are interested?"

Beckman and the others obviously already knew something about the Pirate King crew from Shanks, so they didn't show much surprise on their faces at this moment.

But Shanks, who was sitting on the sofa, looked a little surprised.

Although he was once a crew member of Roger's Pirates, he was just a trainee crew member. How could Doflamingo be interested in him?

And Roger's Pirates and the Beasts Pirates have little intersection, and he and Doflamingo have even less intersection... If it really counts, he might be more familiar with Discatelli. After all, he and Buggy were both beaten by that crazy girl before...

"I'm curious, why me?" Shanks asked after thinking for a while.

"Of course it's because I see extraordinary potential in you, and I plan to bet on you in advance and win you over. Isn't this a very normal thing?" Doflamingo said without hesitation.

"Potential?" Shanks was stunned, and he was even more confused at this time.

When I fought with your Beasts Pirates before, I was beaten black and blue by that flying girl every time. Even so, you can still see the potential in me?

But what Shanks didn't know was that Doflamingo's impression of him was mainly influenced by Albert.

After all, this elder brother he respected the most had pointed out bluntly before that Shanks was the most talented among their generation, and he would definitely have very good achievements in the future.

Of course, these remarks were remembered by many of Albert's admirers. Every time they had a group fight with Roger's pirate group, Discatelli would go to Shanks for trouble because of this.

As for Buggy, it was just to save trouble.

"Shanks, after Roger's execution, although I don't know why you reorganized your own pirate group and went out to sea again, no matter what, it can be seen that you don't have the intention to wash your hands like the other members of Roger's pirate group."

Doflamingo rested his head on his palm and then smiled: "Although my strength is not the best, it's still acceptable, so, don't you really consider coming to join forces with me?"

Doflamingo had no intention of talking about the fact that his family was robbed by Shanks not long ago.

It's just a famous sword. For the Beasts Pirates, who control most of the world's arms trade, this loss is completely within their tolerance. Even the Supreme Great Sword is just a dead object. It is people who can play its real role.

Of course, it is precisely because the robber's name is Shanks, otherwise Doflamingo would have had him chopped up and sunk into the sea to feed sharks.

Facing Doflamingo's invitation, Shanks smiled and shook his head.

"Doflamingo, since you know that I have formed a pirate group now, you should be able to guess what my next answer will be..."

Hearing Shanks's euphemistic refusal, DoflamingoMingge couldn't help but sigh with regret.

"Shanks, you don't have to jump to conclusions. My invitation is still valid, and even if you choose to refuse in the end, we can still maintain a certain friendship..."

Doflamingo is a very pragmatic person. If Shanks doesn't want to join, there is no need to turn against him because of a small matter.

After all, there is more to the sea than fighting and killing, and human relations are also very important.

After a slight pause, Doflamingo continued, "But brothers should settle accounts clearly. Since you don't want to join our Smiley Pirates, then we have to settle the deal you made not long ago. Otherwise, I, Doflamingo, can't explain to my partners."

Pica's face twitched unconsciously when he heard Doflamingo's words.

He seemed to remember that the Jonathan family seemed to have sent a lot of compensation for this matter not long ago...

Killing two birds with one stone, you are really worthy of being you, Dov!

At the same time, Shanks, who had been calm, couldn't hold back his expression.

He was thick-skinned, but the creditor had already come to his door, so he couldn't just laugh it off.

Damn, it's just a knife... You Beasts Pirates are so big, why are you so fussy about it?

"I asked someone to check the background of your Red Hair Pirates... To be honest, even if you pawn your ship, it can't make up for my loss..."

Doflamingo's words didn't contain any sarcasm, but Shanks and his friends felt a kind of contempt for the rich in this sentence.

"How about this, I don't want the money, but you need to help me do something next, and if you do it well, I can even give you a generous reward... How about 200 million Baileys?"

Shanks, who was about to refuse, suddenly got his words stuck in his throat! !

Wait, how much did you say?

200 million Baileys?

Evil capitalists, oh no, evil big moneybags!!
