Pirates: Build a high wall from the East China Sea.

Chapter 54 Outsourcing
Although a small accident happened, Xia Che remained calm.

He simply waved his hand and asked Mok and Big Bear to tie up Daz Bonis and send him onto the boat, ready to take him away together.

As for Mok's suggestion of killing it and throwing it into the sea to feed the fish, Xia Che simply ignored it.

Anyway...

Lao Sha made him a lot of money this time, and finally entrusted all the inheritance to him. As an important partner, how could he be the kind of person who would entrust an important partner to his little brother and then throw him to feed the fish?
That’s right, Xia Che probably guessed what Lao Sha meant by the last words he asked Daz Bonis to bring to him.

Isn't it just telling him that all the treasures and Baroque Works can be given to him, but he is asked to protect his younger brother well.

Although it sounded a little arrogant, Xia Che still understood it.

otherwise.

If he really intended to wait for him to come out and then take back his treasure, why would he let his little brother stay by his side and let Daz Bonis say those words to him?

Are you planning to let your little brother die?
Speaking of which, Crocodile is indeed a little arrogant.

For example, in the plot...Alabasta's conspiracy was also exposed. After being sent to a temporary prison, facing the rescue of the Baroque Works agents, this guy gave up escaping and said something like "I'm not in the mood!", and still stayed in the prison honestly, not escaping with the agents.

Is this really not the mood?
It's just that this guy's inner pride came out after seeing that a group of tools who were deceived by him actually came to save him and recognized him as the BOSS.

He knew that the navy's main target was himself. If he ran along with the navy when they were surrounded, he might be able to escape, but the others might not be able to.

And as long as he doesn't run away, the navy will use its main force to watch him!

So, just stay put.

For example, later in the Marineford War, after seeing Luffy’s depressed face, even though he was his former enemy, he still said those words "If you want to protect something, protect it well" to motivate Luffy.

It can be said that he is an old tsundere.

Therefore, he probably realized that he couldn't escape this time, so he became arrogant again and asked Daz Bonis to come and rely on his [cooperator] partner.

What's more...it's already in my mouth, wouldn't it be a waste to just feed it to the fish?
Come here~
So, Xia Che, who was lying leisurely on the beach lounge chair, opened his mouth slightly, took a bite of the grapes that Robin Xiao Mi had peeled and handed to him, and spit out the grape seeds inside. Then he turned his head and looked at Daz Bonis who was tied up and thrown on the deck, and said leisurely, "I am also very sad about what happened. Are you calm now?"

The voice just fell.

Hear what this cunning, corrupt naval captain said.

Daz Bonis: ...

Grief?

The corners of your mouth are almost stretched to your ears, and you still have the nerve to express your grief in front of him?
Daz Bonis looked at Xia Che in front of him with a dark face and said in a gloomy tone, "I didn't expect that even the boss fell for your trick. It seems that we all underestimated you."

Now he understood what was going on!
He raised his head and glanced around the corrupt and cunning naval captain...

The overlord of the East China Sea, Mok, the tyrant Big Bear, and... Nico Robin, the son of the devil, who was sitting elegantly next to the fallen navy captain with a smile on her face.

My goodness, the target that the boss was looking for and the pirates who defeated the boss are all from this navy?
And this bastard...

Not only did he swindle all the money from them, but now he has the nerve to say to his face that he is grieving?
Daz Bonis took a deep breath. It was useless to worry about it now. Although he might not be able to see the boss again, he calmed down at this moment. He looked at Xia Che expressionlessly and said lightly, "How are you going to deal with me?"

"Dispose of? What do you mean by disposal? You are the little brother that Lao Sha entrusted to me to take care of." After hearing what Daz Bonis said, Xia Che said with a serious face, "You should know what the relationship between Lao Sha and me is? How could I attack his only little brother?"

"..."

This bastard!

Before getting the money, I called the BOSS "Brother", but now... I just call him Lao Sha.

He had never seen such a shameless navy!

No, I haven't even seen it in One Piece!
Daz Bonis turned his head away with a dark face, intending to ignore the bastard.

At this point, he has nothing more to say.

Failure is failure!

Being cheated is being cheated!

Just like the boss, he was also able to face it calmly, with a calm tone, "It doesn't matter! If you want to throw me into the sea to feed the fish, please hurry up!"

however.

The voice just fell.

unexpected……

"Hey fish? You want to commit suicide after encountering a little setback?" The cunning naval colonel suddenly stood up with an angry look on his face and walked up to him angrily, "Are you worthy of the boss who took you in? Are you worthy of the boss who gave you a second life? Are you worthy of the boss who voluntarily followed the navy for you? Have you ever thought about others? Have you ever thought about your boss? No, you only think about yourself!"

"..."

These words...

Are you qualified to say that?
Daz Bonis was so annoyed that he turned back and asked, "What on earth do you want to do?"

"Nothing, I just want to ask... since your original company went bankrupt." Xia Che smiled at Daz Bonis again, "Have you ever thought about changing jobs?"

After saying that, he snapped his fingers and said to Robin beside him, "Robin~"

"Yes~"

After hearing the boss's words, Robin, who had been a personal secretary for so many years, understood what the boss meant at once, even though the boss did not say what was said in detail. With an elegant and intellectual smile still on his face, he slowly took out a document and handed it to Daz Bonis.

"???"

Daz Bonis, who was confused, lowered his head and looked at the document in front of him. He frowned and muttered to himself in a puzzled tone, "Special talents of the 16th branch of the Navy..."

Then he seemed to understand something, raised his head and looked at Xia Che, sneered, "You want to recruit me? Don't dream, I will not betray the boss." He closed his eyes and said in a calm tone, "Kill me!"

However. Facing Daz Bonis's words, Xia Che did not take action, but sighed with some emotion and said, "Do you still want to die? Are you doing this to your boss?"

With a meaningful tone, "Think about your boss. When he really comes out and sees that you are gone, how sad will he be?"

"How ridiculous! The boss is a man who fights for the supremacy of the sea, how could he be sad about such a thing?" Daz Bonis still closed his eyes, but said with disdain, "Don't try to persuade me anymore, cunning navy captain!"

"Well, in that case..." Xia Che shook his head regretfully, with a regretful tone, "Although Lao Sha might be sad when you die, it doesn't matter. We can put the blame on the Navy Headquarters and let Lao Sha fight to the death with the Navy Headquarters. He will never know that he has been deceived by us, and he can happily use his treasure to buy all kinds of things. We can even continue to deceive him and ask him for money. Anyway, the only little brother who knows the secret is gone, and we can say whatever we want then."

It seemed as if his eyes became brighter and brighter the more he spoke, and he became more excited.

"Why didn't I think of that just now? By then, Lao Sha won't know he was cheated, and we can continue to cooperate. If it doesn't work out, we can put the blame on his little brother!"

But I didn't realize what he said.

Daz Bonis: ...

His whole body began to tremble, and even his closed eyes slowly opened, looking at Xia Che in front of him with anger.

This bastard! ! !

Before he could say anything.

The bastard colonel, who was getting more and more excited, clapped his hands, waved his hand and said, "In that case, throw it into the sea, hey..."

however.

The words are not finished yet.

Daz Bonis, who had a gloomy face, suddenly said, "Wait a minute!"

"???" Xia Che turned his head in confusion and looked at Daz Bonis, "What's wrong? I have decided to agree with your suggestion. Don't you want to die by being fed to fish?"

“I…” Daz Bonis gritted his teeth and glared at Shache, but finally lowered his head, was silent for a moment, and said, “I will not betray the boss!”

"In that case, Mok..."

"Wait a minute! I won't betray the boss, but I can promise you..." Daz Bonis raised his head again and looked at Xia Che expressionlessly, "Before the boss comes out, I can work for you, but you have to agree to let me go after the boss comes out! If you agree, I, Daz Bonis, will keep my promise."

There was silence for a moment.

"I will work for you honestly, but if you don't agree... then please kill me!"

As soon as these words fell.

The guy in front of him didn't answer him.

Who would agree to such a request?
Thinking that this guy would not agree to his request, Daz Bonis sighed inwardly and slowly closed his eyes again.

however.

unexpected.

"No problem! For Lao Sha's sake." Colonel Xia Che nodded and said with a smile, "I agree to your request!"

Daz Bonis also opened his eyes and looked at Xia Che in front of him with some disbelief.

Although this guy was shameless and cunning, his magnanimity and courage were indeed beyond his expectations.

Daz Bonis sneered and said, "Aren't you afraid that the boss will come out and settle accounts with you after knowing everything?"

"What's the point of settling accounts? What's my relationship with Lao Sha? Besides, I've always run my business with integrity. Didn't I bring Robin here?" Xia Che smiled and waved his hand. "As for the treasury and Baroque Workshop...didn't you give them to me?"

Then he snapped his fingers again, "Robin~"

"..."

This bastard...

Daz Bonis took another deep breath, ignored this guy, and turned to look at Robin beside him.

When Daz Bonis saw that Robin in front of him did not take out a new document, but just took away the top one on talent introduction and revealed the bottom one, he frowned. Could it be that this guy had already guessed what decision he would make?
But it has come to this point, so I didn’t care. I lowered my head and looked…

【Outsourcing labor contract】

Although he didn't understand why the navy had so many weird things, it looked like they were definitely not trying to recruit him. Daz Bonis nodded with satisfaction and continued reading.

however.

"Only provide accommodation?" Daz Bonis raised his head again and said with a dark face, "Without any compensation?"

"That's right~" Xia Che nodded, and said with a matter-of-fact tone and a smile, "It's not that there is no compensation, but we don't provide basic wages for outsourcing. But if you do a good job, we will have a share and bonus~! Will you sign?"

"..."

Basic salary?

remuneration?

The corner of Daz Bonis' mouth twitched, although he didn't quite understand. After all, as a pirate, where would his salary come from? And as a bounty hunter, it was not normal to get paid for completing a mission.

But he felt in his heart... this might be a trap!
Where on earth did this damn Navy Headquarters find this guy? How could such a guy become a Navy colonel?

He is even more devilish than the son of the devil!

Whatever, it’s just some money. When the BOSS comes out, they will take back everything that belongs to them.

He took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said viciously, "I...sign!"
