I can only achieve nothing and become the Pirate King.

Chapter 582: Hoarding? Control the market!
Being stared at by Sager, Guernica subconsciously lowered his head, cold sweat streaming down his face.

I always feel like I can see through his heart with just one glance.

"Lord Sager, we have been working together very happily. The higher-ups also asked me to tell you that you, who are sensible and reasonable, will definitely not do anything petty. Now it seems to be true."

Guernica regrouped, raised his head and said, "One million Baileys, we agreed. I hope Lord Sager can maintain the cooperation and not do anything treacherous again."

"Who do you take me for? I'm a man of words. Even if you don't have your last weapon, I won't raise the price."

"Understood. Thank you, Master Sarge."

Guernica bowed, stood up, and said, "Then I will take my leave."

"Pleasant to work with."

Sager raised his glass towards him and said, "I won't see you off."

After Guernica disappeared, he smiled and took a sip of wine. "Another big deal."

"Sag, why is the World Government begging so much? Our price is so high, can't they make it themselves?" Lily asked puzzledly.

It was not the first time that the World Government purchased weapons from them, but Lily had always believed that their weapons were of good quality. Another reason was that the World Government purchased a large number of weapons so that they could arm their own forces.

But now it has come to this, even if Sager raises the price, he still has to buy such a large piece of land himself. Can't he just build it himself?

“Why would they buy it if they could make it?”

Sager laughed and said, "Lily, you don't understand the World Government. The power of the World Government in public comes from the ancient twenty nations and the many kingdoms that have joined them today. The kingdoms come together, give people money to establish navies and sheriffs, and protect the so-called order of the sea. They will not violate this rule in public."

"They are political creatures, the product of power, and the product of mutual compromise. The member states recognize the status of the Celestial Dragons, and the World Government provides protection and necessary assistance to the member states. Within this alliance, they can share what they have, and it can be considered a civilized world."

"It seems that the World Government is in charge of the member states, but the World Conference is the home turf of the member states. Fifty qualified kingdoms gathered together to agree on the rules of the sea for the next four years. The creation and abolition of the Shichibukai were all formulated by them. This is the world's rules on the surface."

"The World Government is not just one person or one country. If they want to build weapons, the first ones to disagree are the member states. Most of the weapons are also produced by the member states themselves."

"It's not that it's better to buy than to make, it's that they can't make it at all." Sag laughed.

Lily frowned. The principles of the World Government are the rules of the sea, and it has been like this since ancient times. Logically, she should be able to understand it, but after following Sag for a long time, her thinking had already changed.

The member states, a single member state is nothing more than a lamb to be slaughtered. Although those powerful countries are powerful, they also have their own constraints. If they act as a world government, they will certainly unify the world.

"Don't understand? Huh, huh, huh, the simplest example is that they don't care."

Sager said: "It doesn't matter who is strong or weak, what matters is that their rule will continue, and that's enough."

"It won't last much longer."

As soon as he finished speaking, a mixed sound came from a loudspeaker outside.

Fuzzy Fu came in with Crow, who sat opposite Sage and said, "We, the Revolutionary Army, will start a war against the Celestial Dragons and win!"

Sager bared his teeth and said, "I welcome every friend who wants to do business with me."

The war that the World Government was involved in was started by the Revolutionary Army.

After they raided Marijoa, rescued Kuma, and killed Cobra as reported in the newspaper, they pushed the twelve member states to launch a revolution, eight of which succeeded in the revolution, stopped paying Celestial Gold to the World Government, and stood on the stage, declaring that they would overthrow the rule of the Celestial Dragons.

This incident has occupied a lot of space in the newspapers recently, overshadowing the establishment of the Cross Guild, and is called the "Eight-Nation Revolution." "It seems that someone has been here first, the World Government?"

Crow glanced around, looked at the untouched glass, and said, "We, the Revolutionary Army, also need a large amount of weapons to fight against the World Government. Sarge, Dragon hopes to expand the scale of our arms trade."

He was not Kerla, so he was not confused, nor was he angry, and he was not even surprised why the World Government would make a deal with a pirate.

All he had to do was complete the task assigned to him by Dorag.

"No problem, as long as you can afford the price."

Sager said, "As for the price I'll give you, let's put it this way. I'll sell it at the original price. I won't raise the price. It's still 500,000 Baileys per piece. You can also exchange it for people and materials. Similarly, the warships and gunpowder will also be sold at the price of the previous transaction."

“We accept this deal.”

Crow paused and said, "Sage, I have seen your country. It is very prosperous. You are also a very capable and kind king. You should join us to fight against the Celestial Dragons. When you have time, I will tell you about the history of our Revolutionary Army and..."

"Go! Go! Go."

Sager rolled his eyes. "I'm not interested in your stuff. Don't say that in front of me, or I'll raise the price."

Doing this in front of him?
He even practiced it in reverse!
"I see. I'll take my leave then."

The crows did not stay for long. After the deal was concluded, they separated into individual crows and flew away.

"Natural type?"

Lily glanced at some black dust on the table and said, "It's so mysterious."

Fuzzy F wiped the black ash off the chair with his hand, twisted it, and said, "Governor, it looks like coal ash."

"Ha! This thing is also considered natural? Natural mining, right?"

Sarge scoffed, "Or is it the ability to control dust that's why it's included? In that case, does that count as the Gray-Gray Fruit?"

"Sag, why are you giving it to the Revolutionary Army so cheaply? Shouldn't it be the same price as the World Government?" asked Renetia.

"For the sustainability of the war, of course."

Sarge said: "The Revolutionary Army cannot defeat the World Government. At most, they can hold out for a while. It is undeniable that the Navy is still the biggest overlord on the sea. If I don't let them strengthen their weapons and prolong the war, how can I do business?"

After fighting for a while and winning, the demand for weapons will naturally decrease.

So the weaker side needs support.

As for who is weaker.
That’s not important. What’s important is that he must at least bring the firepower of both sides to an equal level.

In a battle of this scale, a few strong men can't do much, and Dragon is no weak guy either.

As long as the war continues, the whole world will be plunged into this war.
"Weapons, food, medicine, clothing. I have everything here. I'll take this opportunity to do business. During the war, they won't have time to produce. Then, I can do business however I want."

In times of war, what are the big landowners best at?
Hoarding?

No, it’s about fucking controlling the market!
