Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me

"Why did you run away?"

Nami and Nojiko were stunned by this scene.

They had absolutely no idea what had happened.

Why did the word "get lost" make this terrifying monster slink away?

What did Rocks do to this monster?

Chapter 19 The Navy's Attention!

"Report! Colonel Rat, according to the maritime patrol, they spotted the Bucky Cruiser F leaving Dragon Paradise in the waters near the Konomiya Islands!"

"According to intelligence gathered, the Pakistani Pirates F and the Dragon Pirates F may have engaged in a fierce battle, but the specific details are currently unclear..."

Another small island in the Konomiya Islands.

This is the base of the 16th Naval Division.

A soldier relayed the intelligence gathered by the maritime patrol to Colonel Rat, the base commander…

"Pakistan Express?"

Inside the office.

Upon hearing this news, Colonel Mouse's rat-like face showed a surprised expression: "The same 'Clown Bucky' with a bounty of ten million Berries, who works at the Ocean Park?"

The soldier replied respectfully, "Yes, Colonel Rat!"

"Two famous overseas shopping malls in the East China Sea actually got into a fight? What exactly happened...?"

Colonel Mouse's face was somewhat gloomy.

It wasn't because the two pirates fighting each other would have any impact on him as the base commander of the 16th Naval Division.

Rather, he was in cahoots with the evil dragon, and they had a cooperative relationship.

If something happens to the dragon, his sugar daddy, it won't be so easy for him to make money in the future.

He bought his position as the branch secretary from "higher-ups".

If he loses the dragon as his financial backer, he won't be able to afford the annual taxes he has to pay to the "higher-ups"...

"Quickly, go and investigate... No, I'm going too! Two powerful maritime forces in the East China Sea are clashing, which has threatened the dignity of the Navy!"

Colonel Mouse was very concerned about the dragon's situation and planned to go and check on it.

He secretly prayed for Ding.

Hopefully, this wealthy patron, the dragon, will not get into trouble.

Otherwise, his money-making scheme will be in big trouble; if he can't pay enough taxes, he'll be removed from his position...

soon.

Under the orders of Colonel Rat.

A warship set sail, heading towards the location of Dragon Paradise...

……

Cocossia Village.

The news that the Dragon Pirates had been destroyed by the Buggy Pirates spread throughout the village through Nami and Nojiko.

The whole village was in an uproar.

All the villagers wept with joy.

The oppression and hatred in their hearts were released at this moment because the evil dragon had been oppressing them for a long time.

There was a feeling of relief.

The villagers' faces beamed with the joy and satisfaction of revenge, and the family and friends who had died at the hands of the evil dragon Hai Lie could finally rest in peace...

……

At this moment.

Nami at home.

"Is this really okay?"

Nami, having just returned from paying respects to her mother Bellemere, asked Rocks this question: "You were the one who defeated the evil dragon sea monster and saved our village, yet you gave the credit to another sea monster..."

She couldn't quite understand what Lockes was doing.

They actually kept this matter a secret from others, and instead gave the credit to that guy, Pakistani Foreign Trade F.

The total bounty for the Dragon Bounty is over 50 million Berries.

As long as there is evidence, it is possible to go to the naval branch base to collect the bounty offered by the evil dragon.

Nami, who is obsessed with money, said it was such a waste to just throw the money away like that.

Her "savings" don't even amount to 50 million Berries...

"When did you see the Sea Demon 10Y and then go to the naval branch base to collect the bounty?"

Rocks put the peeled orange into his mouth and said calmly, "Only in this way can the Navy know how vicious Bucky is, and I won't be noticed by the Navy for a while."

Locus actually felt it was a pity that he couldn't accept the bounty offered by the evil dragon.

However, in order to boost Pakistan's spending and attract the Navy's attention, this money was gone forever...

Nami muttered, "You're not a sea monster, are you...?"

You'll find out later.

Lockes smiled but offered no explanation.

"There are hundreds of millions of Berries that they've plundered over the years in Dragon Paradise."

Rocks then asked another question: "What do you think we should do with these Baileys?"

"I?"

Nami pointed to herself and said, "This is your spoils of war, and you should handle it."

"You have eliminated the threat of the evil dragon, the Sea King, for us..."

"Although I also like Pele, I don't want ill-gotten gains."

Rocks interrupted Nami, laughing, "I'm a man with principles. It's too hot to handle this money that I've plundered from the nearby towns."

He happily accepted the money he received from the Pakistani merchant ship.

After all, it's unclear where that money came from.

But the money the dragon Seafarer amassed was the ill-gotten gains he had plundered from nearby villages, and Locus wouldn't take this hot potato of money.

This is a matter of bottom line!

Finally, Rocks made a decision: "You can handle this, Nami."

"it is good!"

Nami thought about it and didn't refuse.

When she looked at Rocks, her eyes were filled with deep gratitude: "Thank you..."

She was once a member of the Dragon Pirates and knew exactly how many heinous things they had done.

She simply lacked the power to make any changes.

It's a good thing that we can now do something to help other villages that have been harmed!

Rocks waved his hand and joked, "This is my way of making the future navigator girl feel more of a sense of belonging and preventing her from betraying me in the future. To put it simply, it's about winning her over!"

Nami gave Rocks a strange look and whispered, "Words meant to win people over are useless once they're spoken."

"And I will never betray you..."

"You do not understand."

Rocks ate another piece of orange: "Sometimes a real blow is a sure-fire technique, and it's very effective."

Nami: "..."

That makes a lot of sense.

After hearing these words, her trust in and sense of belonging to Rocks increased considerably...

……

Half a day.

The warships from the 16th Naval Base arrived at Dragon Paradise.

The Dragon Paradise was in complete disarray, with fish-man corpses lying haphazardly, their blood staining the ground and the swimming pool.

It was extremely tragic.

This scene made all the naval personnel gasp in shock.

"So...so tragic!"

"They're all dead, that evil dragon pirate F..."

"Is that Bucky Barnacles really that ruthless? And so powerful, even annihilating the Dragon Barnacles..."

The Marines were well aware of the immense power of the evil dragon.

The reason they allowed the enemy to burn, kill, and loot was not only because Colonel Rat had a cooperative relationship with them, but also because they were truly no match for the evil dragon, Hai Pin...

The destruction of such a powerful fleet has deeply shocked these naval personnel!

"He's really dead..."

Colonel Rat looked around, his anger reaching its peak. He clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth: "How despicable!"

The sugar daddy is dead.

Who will be able to reliably send him "taxes" in the future?

This was a real problem for him; the person above him had far greater ambitions than he did…

Chapter 20 The Rat Colonel's Outburst!

Suppressing his anger, Colonel Rat ordered one of his men, "Go and find out what happened here. I need all the details!"

After that, he went to the Dragon Paradise warehouse on his own.

Upon seeing the warehouse completely empty, Colonel Rat was furious: "Damn it, all the money has been taken!"

He didn't know how much money the evil dragon had amassed over the years.

But it is definitely a considerable sum.

Now the warehouses have been emptied, and he has missed out on all that money.

It broke his heart!

"Was this money stolen by Pakistani merchants or by those lowly villagers?"

Colonel Rat took a deep breath, a cold glint in his eyes: "If it was stolen by those lowly villagers, there's still a chance of getting it back..."

He didn't even expect to get the money back if it had been stolen by Pakistani pirates.

But if the villagers of Cocoyasi Village steal it, he still has a chance to reclaim it!

With this thought in mind, Colonel Mouse left the warehouse.

Later, I learned from my subordinates who were investigating the situation what happened here—a conflict broke out between Bucky's Pirates and Dragon Pirates, and Bucky's Pirates destroyed Dragon Pirates!

Hearing the report, Colonel Rat almost ground his teeth to powder: "Very well, Bucky's F, huh? You've been hiding so well, I'll remember you!"

That damned Pakistani businessman actually killed his sugar daddy.

He remembered this grudge.

It will definitely be reported to Navy Headquarters to increase the threat level of the Pakistani Navy.

Order headquarters to send more naval forces to wipe out the Pakistani pirates and avenge our grievances!
