west sea
On a small island near the Grand Line, there was heavy fog.
A large ship is moored here, and a skull flag is flying on the huge pirate ship. The skull is a normal skull, and the background is indeed a five-color windmill.
And this flag on the West China Sea has a different kind of deterrence.
Because this pirate group had a head-to-head fight with the underworld forces in the West Sea some time ago. Its leader White Wind Rocker directly became a god in a battle, and he has the title of One-Punch Bald King on the West Sea.
"Brumuru, burubru."
"Hey! Boss, I'm Shilok. Answer my call!"
"Big thing, big thing!"
At this time, Sirocco of the Black Wind, who was the commander of the Five-Colored Wind West Sea, was holding a phone bug in his hands with an anxious look on his face.
There was already a layer of sweat on the blue-grey inch board head.
And at this time
Locke, who had just finished dinner and was going to find a place to practice some practice, was slightly startled, and the "Quotations of the Wind Leader" in his hand slowly closed.
He wasn't in a hurry, he really wasn't in a hurry, and he even didn't want to answer the phone at all.
Although he is no longer the Donghai gangster he was in the past, even the leader of Xihai still calls him big brother. But he has never forgotten Sister Kona's earnest teachings. The road to becoming stronger has always been boring and boring.
Always remind yourself to indulge in drunken meat and dinner. The beautiful flower pond may seem beautiful, but it is the catalyst that accelerates the rust of the knife edge. Only the unpretentious body and muscles are the constant pursuit of the strong.
Whenever he felt satisfied with his efforts, he would take out "Quotations of the Leader" and review the past.
Only by not forgetting your original intention can you achieve success.
"What's the matter? I'm getting ready to roll the iron."
Shilok is Locker's favorite second brother.
Although he is said to be the second younger brother, Sirocco is actually the weakest among the five.
There is no other reason, only one word can highlight his characteristics.
stable.
Two words.
Very stable!
Three words.
Very stable.
Four words.
Steady as an old dog.
Perhaps it was his experience with Little Teresa that made him dislike standing out, and even when he did take action, he was very low-key. Many times, just like the color he chose, black, he acted as an invisible person.
But since Locke gradually delegated power from the West Sea and let Shilok take charge of the West Sea forces, he discovered how stable this brother who had been following him throughout his career was.
Basically, he would call the headquarters to ask about anything important.
Any plan that is slightly risky will have the headquarters and other brothers ready to take care of him.
Even though he is weak, even if his strategy is not good, this steady style makes Locke extremely reassured.
Although the current stable situation in Xihai is inseparable from Shilok's efforts, but...
Everyone is very annoyed!
Out of five people, you are the one with the most phone calls!
The phone bill... well, without the phone bill... even the phone bugs can't afford it.
To be optimistic is to be optimistic, and to be reassured is to be assured.
But Locke really wanted to hit people.
Of course, Shilok didn't think so.
Shilok is a very self-aware person. If Donghai hadn't been 'hardened' for a long time, he wouldn't be as stable as he is now. In fact, everyone knows Gou's character.
To put it nicely, it’s called Gou, to put it worse, it’s to follow one’s heart.
The first bird will be shot with a gun, and the chicken with an iron neck will be beaten with a hammer.
Especially after seeing those people dancing and dying as if they were lined up, he fell in love with keeping a low profile and hiding himself.
When Theresa was little, if he hadn't been bullied a lot, he wouldn't have been a part of guarding the pier. If he hadn't kept a low profile, he wouldn't have been patrolling the edge of the pier. If not, he wouldn't have been there. That night, they hid on the Little Strawberry during the navy's raid, and they would not have encountered Yuyuko and his group, who had become one of the five-color winds that everyone in the West Sea now talks about, Sirocco the Black Wind.
The most important thing is that he can do nothing except being extremely stubborn.
And as the opponents he faced now became stronger and stronger, his sense of security became increasingly insufficient. He did not dare to act arbitrarily until he was completely sure of the matter.
In the words of Gou, he is the kind of person who goes too far and becomes a coward.
In terms of combat effectiveness, the eldest brother is first, the fourth brother Elman is second, the third brother Laxus is third, and the fifth brother Denok is fourth, and he is at the bottom.
In terms of strategy, his sister-in-law had a lot of trouble with him, so Elman, the reckless man, was slightly worse than him.
But Elman...
That guy's fruit ability is so abnormal...
After looking at the phone call for a long time, the elder brother still didn't answer the call. Shilok's scalp was sweating and he was screaming in his heart that it was not good.
Could it be that my eldest brother has also given up on me? But I have been very restrained by my eldest brother and only make three calls a day!
Finally, the phone bug stopped Blue, and then he smashed his mouth.
Phone Bug: Although I am not a human being, you are a real dog who calls me whenever I have nothing to do!
However, the life of a bug is difficult, and I regret being born a phone bug!
But it still spoke.
"Tell me, what's wrong with you..."
The light words revealed one part of anger, one part of indifference, two parts of coolness, four parts of helplessness, and the last two parts were complexity.
Although they are brothers, their mentality will explode if they talk to you about trivial matters and make harassing phone calls to whomever they want.
Brother finally answered the phone!
Shilok finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Brother, brother! This time is really a big deal. I'm not lying to you. I can't make up my mind about this matter at all!"
"Stop coming, you kid always bothers us with some ridiculous things. Don't think I don't know. Even Elman couldn't bear it two days ago and you called me to complain."
"Ah this..."
Elman is an honest person, but even dumber than him. Usually he will just call him for help, which is rare...
"Tell me what happened this time. If it's really not important, I'll let you feel our iron fist next time."
Sirocco shivered when he heard this.
"No, brother, I just can't decide what to pay attention to. Don't be like this!"
"Stop talking nonsense and get down to business."
"Okay, okay! Here's what happened..." As he spoke, Sirok slowly turned his head and looked to the side with a headache.
A woman with short black hair.
She has a slender figure, a simple black tight-fitting dress, the skirt is still a little tattered, there is a small ankle cuff tied on her feet, there are some bruises on her face, she is sitting on a table with a few books. There are books on the wooden box. At first glance, you might think it was a slave.
But her movements are elegant and quiet, but she is far from a slave. Even a slave can only be a princess in distress from some kingdom.
But this person is not some kingdom’s princess in distress.
She is worth who knows how much more than some princess in distress.
A bounty of 80 million beli was placed on his head more than ten years ago, and he is a heinous criminal wanted by the world government in the name of the Son of the Devil. Nicole Robin.
However, the world only knows that Nico Robin is the son of the devil wanted by the World Government, but few people really know why the World Government wants Nico Robin.
But the 'Lan' organization is different from others.
The encounter with the revolutionary army made 'Lan' know the tragic life experience of this poor person, Nicole Robin.
"So, boss, now that Nicole Robin is here, what should I do?" Sirocco almost cried.
This thing is too hot, and it is completely beyond the control of his low-key brother!
Robin, who was reading a book on the side, seemed to be attracted by Sirocco's voice, and raised his head to look at Sirocco for a rare moment.
The bruised face revealed endless coldness, and his eyes were dull and dull. However, looking at this funny look, Sirocco Robin showed a rare smile.
Well, I just simply find it a bit funny.
It can be said that her arrival here was a complete accident.
Before that, she worked for a gang in Xihai. However, the gang was brought down by the war with Wuse Feng, and was eventually divided up by other gangs. However, Nicole Robin, who was a secret asset, was not snatched away from her. People say they value it. Or maybe that person is timid and doesn't have the courage to use her.
So after several twists and turns by that person, she finally seemed to be spotted by someone from the Grand Line, so she was sent to the Grand Line in her current appearance.
But goose...
This low-key and younger brother's transport ship ran into Shilok's ship.
So he was kidnapped by Sirocco.
"So! Brother, what should I do now! This thing is too hot!"
It's hot, it's really hot.
Even Locke was stunned for a few seconds when he heard the news.
He had already known the value of Nico Robin when he discussed it with Long. Even since Long started causing trouble two years ago, he has secretly sent people everywhere to look for Nico Robin. As an ally with overlapping business scope, 'Lan' naturally heard about this matter.
However, Locke was only slightly stunned for a moment, and soon he made a decision.
"Let me go. I'll let the whole boat go, but I'll give them back everything except Nico Robin's belongings."
Shilok was a little surprised. This decision was a little different from his elder brother's style.
"Why?"
"Why...because Sister Yuyuko said it!"
"Sister Yuyuko said that?[・_・?]"
"I used to be on the Little Strawberry! (￣ー￣)"
"Not recorded in the quotation? ヾ(´･･｀｡)ノ"
"No! (￣ー￣)"
"Then I forgot...(๑＞ڡ＜)☆"
"..."(▼ヘ▼#)
Locke sighed and lit a cigarette to calm down.
"That's what Sister Yuyuko said at that time." "There is a person in the West Sea who is called the Son of the Devil, but this is actually a smear campaign by the World Government. She has no fault herself, but what she does is in the eyes of the World Government. It would be a big mistake. If you meet this person, just ignore her and don't touch her. There are not many people in the world who can lead her."
"Brother, can't you carry me?" Shilok asked weakly.
"It's possible~ but it's not necessary~" Locke's thinking was very clear. "Boss Youyouzi has given me new instructions before. We are too aggressive now. We must keep a low profile. No matter how low-key we are, it will not only limit the development of the power, but also make it look like we are satisfied and now we are going to hang out. . So it’s best not to touch people like Nico Robin who will definitely make the world government pay attention to us.”
"Why not give it to Long Nan?"
Sirocco asked the core question.
"This is also a choice, but..." Locke recalled the scene when Yuyouzi was talking about the son of the devil.
At that time, Yuyuko sneezed while saying this.
'You'd better not take advantage of this person, because the trouble is not that person, but the lolicon admiral who is always following that person. '
To be honest, although Locke is a bit naive, he would not know clearly that this is a trouble, and would divert the trouble to the "comrades" of the revolutionary army. You can't be so unethical, right?
You must know that he knew that the Revolutionary Army’s staff department had a little loli staff officer some time ago, just in case...
Ahem, it's not what you think.
Locke is just worried that if the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army is discovered by the World Government, it will cause unnecessary losses to the revolutionary partners of his alliance.
Moreover, if the revolutionary army is gone, wouldn't they, 'Lan', have to run out and start the fight?
This is not good, it goes against Sister Yuyouzi's low-key strategy.
Moreover, Sister Youyouzi also said that it was too early.
The eldest sister wants to cause big trouble, so she must endure it now.
So now Nicole Robin cannot be handed over to the Revolutionary Army for whatever reason.
The risks outweigh the benefits and it's not worth it.
"By the way, second brother, I want to talk to Nico Robin alone."
………
Yuyuko, who was enjoying a bubble bath in the bathtub, shivered.
I always feel like something has changed a little bit.
"It won't be those bastards from Locke who are causing trouble for me in the West Sea again..."
Youyouzi said with some uncertainty.
But after thinking about the major events in the world at this time, I shook my head.
"Probably not, there are no major events at this time!"
In Yuyuko's memory, in the five years before Luffy went to sea, that is, in the years after Shanks' position as the Four Emperors was firmly established, although there was constant fighting on the sea, there was much less pressure under the pressure of the Four Emperors system. Big disputes.
There has never been a major event like the one where the Golden Lion Fleet encircled and suppressed the Roger Pirates.
The Four Emperors are focusing on stabilizing the dominance of the New World, while the World Government is hesitant to move forward because of the lack of progress.
The pirate power is getting stronger and stronger, but the Navy lacks a strong backbone after the current three generals. This is actually one of the reasons why Sengoku accepted the Shichibukai even though it was uncomfortable.
The pirates are powerful, and the navy must drag them away, or almost look for opportunities to break the current deadlock and reshuffle the sea while the current three generals are still there.
However, Yuyuko knew that shuffling the cards would have to wait until Luffy went to sea.
Without Ace as a trigger, the power of the Four Emperors was so stable that even the navy was numb.
"Tch, why are you thinking so much? It's still early days~ Let's see what interesting things happen tonight."
“It’s not a Ferris wheel, it’s exciting just thinking about it!”
As she spoke, Yuyuko put her hand on her forehead and made a very neutral gesture, "Come on, please me, I am the master of the storm, Wendy, the Fifth Herrscher!" "Let the strong wind grant you a fair death. …”
Suddenly bubbles were flying all over the bathroom.
Youyouzi continues to visit Taichung...
