After thirty years of development, the biggest change for the sea is that the whole world is connected to the sea train. Of course, it is only partial. Several kingdoms with large areas of land have connected their ports to the sea train to achieve rapid transportation.
But in other areas, except for the affluence of life, the development is not very great.
The world is too big. The new world government has only been established for thirty years, and even the capitalist aristocracy has not been completely wiped out. Everything is still a long way off.
Compared with thirty years ago, Rogge Town in the East China Sea has not undergone any revolutionary changes except that the buildings have been renovated and the town area has expanded a lot.
This place is still a port town frequented by those who long to enter the Grand Line, but it has just changed from a large number of pirates in the past to a large number of adventurers... and a small number of pirates who do not know how to die.
On the undeveloped land behind Rogge Town, a pirate ship slowly approached.
A captain drew out his knife and gave orders to the surrounding pirates, "Young men, grab it as soon as you land. You must be quick, so the navy can't catch up with us. After grabbing the supplies, we'll go to the Grand Line!"
But the pirates looked worried, and one of them said: "But, Captain... That's Rogge Town, the place with the largest navy in the East China Sea, and there's also the navy of Crowe, so why don't we change places. "
Today's pirates are not as prosperous as they were thirty years ago, like rats crossing the street, but there are still people who are willing to be pirates. After all, the interval is only thirty years, and the existence of pirates has been maintained for a long time. For a long time, even before the establishment of the World Government, pirates existed.
This is inevitable. There will always be people who don't want to live a stable life and take this path for wealth, freedom, or other miscellaneous reasons.
This captain is one of them.
"What's wrong with Crowe! He can know that we will land from the back of Rogge Town. As long as we grab it quickly, he won't be able to react at all, and his reputation will be increased by then!"
The captain felt excited when he thought that he could trick that 'cunning fox'. This was a good opportunity to become famous.
After all, Rogge Town is under his rule, but he claims that not a single pirate will let him go!
The ship gradually approached the shallow land of Rogge Town. In front of it was a jungle. Basically no one would come to this place.
Those stupid navies would only put their defense forces at the town port, so how could they possibly notice this deserted place.
"Young men, get off the boat and rob!"
When the ship approached the land, the captain jumped directly with his knife in hand.
boom!
Bang bang bang! !
But the moment they came down, there was an inexplicable gunshot, and then more gunshots were heard. The pirates around the captain were shot one by one, and fell to the ground wailing.
The captain's eyes widened and he shouted in panic: "What's going on! What's going on!"
Soon, countless white figures emerged from the jungle. They were marines in uniforms, holding guns and knives, surrounding them in a semicircle.
"Navy?! How could it be! You would actually ambush here!"
"Isn't this normal..."
A faint voice came from the navy, and a man wearing a navy cape staggered out. This man was tall and tall, with a monocle on his fair face and a band on his head. Wearing a white top hat, he looks very gentlemanly.
I saw his arm spinning in the air a few times, then putting it on his chest, bowing slightly, giving a standard gentleman's courtesy, and then said:
"There are so many forts in the port of Rogge Town. No pirate with eyes would stop there. You all can think of this. So as a 'sly fox', of course I will also think of this."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pressed down gently, "Just shoot."
boom! !
As the gunfire rang out, the captain was shot several times and fell.
The gentleman navy smiled slightly and said to the corpse: "After all, how could a pirate like a ground rat think of breaking in from the front..."
…
Over at the civilian port of Rogge Town, a pirate ship with an ordinary skull and crossbones flag docked at the port under the strange looks of everyone at the port.
"Ah! It's finally here!"
A bald head emerged from the pier, stretched out his arms and shouted loudly, attracting the attention of many people, but the bald head looked shiny in the sun like a big light bulb, and it seemed to have blinded their eyes at that moment, one by one. Close.
When I opened it again, no one was there.
"Go find the execution platform!"
On the street in front of the dock, shiny bald heads rushed forward with excitement and soon disappeared among the crowd.
"Hey, wait a minute! You are Hai..."
Victoria, who was wearing a hood and cloak, stretched out her hand to stop him, but no one could be seen anywhere. She said angrily: "What's wrong with this guy? He's always been so out of character!"
Mimir said: "Not really, but the captain has not put a reward on him yet. Strictly speaking, he is not a pirate. He can run away no matter what. You are the only one who has put a reward on him."
Victoria shouted: "Ah! Don't say such panicking words! Also, why do you want to park the boat on the front? Isn't it easier to find it? Did you agree to go to the back?!"
Mimir shrugged and said: "Colonel 'Sly Fox' stationed in Rogge Town is a smart man. We can all think of avoiding the port, how could he not think of it, so it is best to enter frontally."
"In addition, although we are flying the pirate flag, no one except you has a bounty. As long as we hide it properly, even if others see us, they will only think that we are role-playing."
As he spoke, he sighed: "Do you think it was an era when people would panic when they saw the pirate flag thirty years ago? That time has long passed. Nowadays, the pirate flag is regarded as a novelty, and not many people are afraid. .”
"I know that."
Of course Victoria knows what this era is like now, so she doesn't think there is anything good about being a pirate, but the key is that she is already on the pirate ship, and she is the first one to be wanted, but whenever that bald guy says he doesn't want to be a pirate anymore , then she really can only be hanged alone.
"Then be careful!"
Victoria regained her composure: "Mimir, go get some information and see if there are any people suitable for recruitment. Thea, you go buy supplies, and I'll go find our bald captain!"
Mimir nodded: "It's right to be careful. As long as you don't attract attention, then..."
"Hey! Where is the execution platform! Tell me quickly, I want to go there to see and then set out to become the Pirate King!!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice not far away made them all freeze, and they all turned their heads and looked in that direction.
I saw that shiny bald head shouting with a group of marines on the street.
"What an idiot!" the three of them collectively said.
How can anyone tell someone that they want to be a pirate, and the target of the question is the navy!
In front of the bald man, the leader of the navy turned around silently, and the moment he turned around, Mimir saw sweat streaming down his face.
"That guy is..." Mimir's mouth twitched, "Can't he be so unlucky?"
The navy man wore a monocle, and his clothes were very decent and clean. He looked like a gentleman, and he was also wearing a navy cape.
Monocle, navy cloak... these characteristics are placed in Rogue Town, and only one person will dress like this.
The naval colonel stationed in Rogue Town was sent to Lyle Crowe, nicknamed "Sly Fox"!
…
Lyle Crowe.
He is not just a naval colonel stationed in Rogge Town. There are so many branch colonels all over the world, but Rogge Town is an exception, or Donghai is an exception.
There have been many heroes here in the past, and there has also been a figure who ruled the world - Rusilu Culuo.
As the largest transfer point between the East China Sea and the Grand Route, staying here means guarding the door to prevent any dangerous elements from entering the Grand Route and strangle them in their cradle.
What's more, he, Lyle Crow, still belongs to that lord's faction.
Crowe was proud of this. Although his last name was different, his name was exactly the same as that of the General Staff Officer of the World Government. The General Staff Officer was also his boss's boss, and his boss was the famous Navy Lieutenant General. , Sazil Kuro!
That has the same name as the savior!
He is in the largest faction, guarding the door of the leader of his faction, so he naturally does his best and does not dare to make any mistakes.
Since he came to Rogge Town, basically no pirates have been able to set off after landing in Rogge Town.
But now, someone actually asked him where the execution platform was, and... he also wanted to be the Pirate King?
"you..."
Crowe turned around, and the first thing he saw was the shiny bald head. He blinked subconsciously, without seeing the man's face clearly, and asked directly:
"Do you know what you're talking about?"
