Pirate: It’s not a phantom beast, it’s a phantom god!

Chapter 108 New System

In the end, with Kaido's approval, the basic management system of the Beasts Pirates was confirmed.

Led by Kaido, there are five core cadres under him - Burfat, Jin, Ra, Ossi and Ouba.

These five people, together with Kaido, coordinate the mobilization of materials and personnel within the pirate group, and are responsible for deciding all major matters within the pirate group.

The five core cadres have the right to mobilize middle-level cadres and combat teams stationed on various islands, and can also recruit their own private teams.

Below these six people are the middle-level cadres, who are originally the captains of each combat team. If the number of people is insufficient, they will be selected through open combat.

They are responsible for guarding the various islands under the control of the Beasts and paying taxes on a monthly basis.

At the same time, monthly rotation and annual re-selection are required according to Kaido's requirements.

As for the selection method...it's of course the qualifying round.

At the annual Hundred Beasts Festival, a ranking competition for middle-level managers will be held, with the winners taking over and the losers being eliminated.

At the same time, La also divided it into core waters and marginal waters based on the location and resources of its subordinate islands.

Those cadres with higher rankings will naturally be assigned to the core areas first.

As for the lowest level combat teams, they were divided into thirteen hundred-man teams according to their background and combat performance.
Each century consists of eighty combatants and twenty combat support personnel, such as cooks, ship doctors, navigators, etc.

These hundred-man teams will be stationed on the islands and are not allowed to leave the shore more than twelve nautical miles without the order of core cadres, let alone go out to sea to plunder.

Their daily expenses are entirely allocated directly by the Fenrir Island headquarters.

In addition, pirate groups like the Fore Pirates who voluntarily become affiliated pirate groups will retain their pirate group organization and be directly stationed on other islands without having to participate in rotation.

Moreover, these affiliated pirate groups directly obey Kaido and have the right to retain 10% of the taxes collected from their bases.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the strength of their captain is recognized by everyone in the group, otherwise the weak will not be eligible to enjoy this preferential treatment.

In addition to these most basic main structures, as the real core stronghold of the Beasts at this stage, Fenrir Island will have a general financial warehouse, material warehouse, weapons warehouse, etc.

A special department will also be set up to be responsible for the deployment of these weapons and supplies in order to strengthen the connection with the subordinate islands.

Of course, special departments such as intelligence department, weapons research and development department, and staff department will be established on the island and directly under the various core cadres.

This is the new management system that Baishou is currently going to implement.

I have to say that now it finally looks like a regular force and no longer looks like a makeshift team.

However, although the general framework has been set up, it will still take a long time to prepare for its actual implementation.

After all, we still have to count the number of people, establish groups, select cadres and arrange locations.

These things don't sound complicated, but after actually starting to do them, it still took me nearly a month to barely complete a rough outline.

As the roster for the final combat team was finalized, countless letters of appointment and transfer orders were issued like snowflakes from the small temporary room next to the Fenrir Island warehouse...

"Boss Taolong! Boss Taolong!"

"Look, come look at this!"

A turbaned pirate holding a box stumbled to the door of a tavern in the town.

All the customers who were chatting and drinking in the tavern were immediately startled by the noise and looked outside through the open door.

"Hoo~cough cough! Boss."

"Congratulations, congratulations..."

Although he was out of breath, the pirate still couldn't hide the excitement on his face.

"Hmm? Congratulations?"

"Oh! What's there to congratulate?"

"Ton ton ton ton~"

In a dark corner, the pirate named Taolong just glanced at the other party indifferently after hearing the words, and then started drinking by himself.

This man has been in this pub getting drunk every day since he lost to Skepgate a month ago.

"Bang!"

Another empty bottle was casually thrown onto the table, spun around, and fell to the floor.

However, it was not as lucky as the other empty bottles lying on the ground. It hit another bottle directly, and both of them shattered into glass shards.

"Hey! Brother Taolong, stop drinking!"

Seeing his decadent look, the pirate with the turban ignored everything else and walked right up to him.

He waved his hand to sweep away all the standing wine bottles on the table, then wiped the table twice with his sleeves. The turbaned pirate then carefully placed the box in his arms on the table.

"Wine, my wine! You, what are you doing..."

Taolong, who was still in a drunken trance, was about to get up to pick up the bottle, but was held back by the other party.

"Forget about the wine! Captain Kaido's commission has arrived!"

"what?"

"Kai, Captain Kaido? Letter of appointment? What, what is that?"

When he heard Kaido's name, Tao Long was obviously alerted, but he still didn't understand what the letter of commission was.

The beasts in the past had never heard of such a thing.

The turbaned pirate was obviously well-educated and immediately explained to him:

"A letter of commission is a written certificate issued by the Navy when it appoints an officer.

We at Baishou have been talking about re-dividing positions recently, haven't we? I heard some of the systems are based on those of the Navy."

"Then, what is this?"

After hearing the other party's explanation, Taolong finally turned his gaze to the box, and an emotion called anticipation began to quietly appear in his heart.

The box is made of wood, painted with black lacquer, and the eight corners are wrapped with silver metal guards, making it look very precious and solemn.

Gently stroking the pattern of the beast logo on the surface of the black box, as well as the surrounding reliefs that resembled the form of Kaido's dragon, Taolong's hands began to tremble slightly uncontrollably.

"Open it and take a look, Boss Taolong."

"Yes, let us have a look, too, Taolong."

Some of Taolong's drinking buddies and other people who were strangers but simply curious gathered around him.

Everyone wanted to see what was inside the box. "Oh, oh, okay."

He swallowed his saliva to moisten his dry throat, rubbed his hands hard on his pants, and then slowly opened the exquisite box.

"Squeak~"

A tiny gap was revealed, and everyone held their breath, staring motionlessly at the place where the light was emanating.

Hmm? Light?
Light?!

Everyone rubbed their eyes to confirm that it was not an illusion, and that there was indeed light leaking out from the open gap.

Very faint, but hard to ignore.

The brilliant golden light is like fine gold sand, adding a touch of nobility and sacredness to this dark corner.

Now not only Taolong, but everyone around him swallowed their saliva.

"Whoo~"

Finally, the battle-hardened pirate took another deep breath and calmed his trembling arms.

"Crack!"

The lid of the box was opened in one breath, and the golden light immediately broke the seal and spread to the surroundings.

Everyone around subconsciously covered their eyes, and only put down their hands carefully after realizing that the light was not glaring.

"This, this is..."

On the black silk lining, a plain white envelope and an exquisite token-like object were quietly placed in the center.

The light just now was emitted by that token.

The token had a strange shape, like a sword-shaped feather cast in gold, but only half of it.

There is a golden sand-like brilliance flowing on its surface.

Taolong carefully took it out. It felt heavy in his hand, just as heavy as real gold. The traditional Chinese character "壹" was engraved on the feather.

"What a nice view……"

This was the consensus of everyone present. They had never seen anything more exquisite and luxurious in their lives than this sacred feather-shaped token.

If this thing were brought to those large auction houses, I'm sure the nobles, royal families, and even the Celestial Dragons would be willing to spend a fortune on it...

Taolong regretted not washing his hands first, so he carefully put the token back into the box and picked up the wax envelope with the "Hundred Beasts" pattern on it.

Since he had never seen such a formal sealed letter before, Taolong didn't know what to do. He wanted to tear it open directly but was afraid of damaging the envelope.

Just when he was at a loss, the turbaned pirate stood up.

He pulled out the dagger from his waist, wiped it on his sleeve twice and handed it to Taolong.

"Boss, use this."

"oh oh."

After taking the dagger, he wiped it on his clothes again before gently using the blade to pry open the sealing lacquer.

He opened the envelope and took out three folds of white paper from it, and Taolong unfolded it carefully.

The people around immediately moved closer.

Smelling the alcohol on these people, Taolong regretted opening the box here.

In the dim light of the token, he frowned and looked at the words on it with difficulty.

The handwriting is very neat, without any special cursive, and has a solemn beauty.

But after looking carefully for a long time, Taolong still only recognized his own name.

"This……"

"Let me read it to you, Boss Taolong."

"it is good."

After handing the letter of authorization to the other party, Taolong secretly decided that he must study hard to learn to read after returning.

"Well, let me see...

Tao Long, the former captain of the Beasts Combat Team, was a man of integrity, enterprising spirit, brave in battle, and had made many outstanding achievements.
They fought bloody battles on the beehive and risked their lives between guns and swords; they are truly the backbone of all beasts and a role model for all members of the group.

I have now been promoted to an official stationed on the island, commanding a military token, a million baileys, and in charge of taxation and garrison duties on Skór Island..."

Having read this, the turbaned pirate raised his head.

"End?"

"That's it. This one at the back looks like Captain Kaido's autograph."

He pointed to the signature that took up most of the paper and the word "Kaido" was completely invisible.

"What do you mean?"

After listening to all the contents in the letter of authorization, Taolong was still confused.

"Um... this is quite formal court grammar, which means that you, Boss, are now a resident cadre on Skule Island!

From now on, the island’s guard work will be…”

"Cadres? You mean cadres!"

“Haha, cadre!!!”

Without paying any attention to what was said next, Taolong was completely immersed in the word "cadre".

"Cadre! I'm a cadre now!"

"Hahaha! I'm a cadre now!!"

“I’m a cadre now!!!”

Taolong laughed loudly and rushed out of the tavern without caring about anything and ran onto the street.

He didn't care about the strange looks from the people around him. He opened his arms and shouted:
"Everyone, look at me! I have an announcement: I'm a cadre! I, Taolong, am a cadre!!!"
