Roy's analysis dampened everyone's excitement slightly.

Even if it's a case of flattery leading to downfall, the reward itself is an affirmation of their strength and influence.

"Captain, what should we do?" Cyrus asked. "Should we keep a low profile?"

"Keep a low profile?"

Roy smiled, a smile that carried an undeniable confidence.

"Why keep a low profile? The Navy gave us this 'gift,' so we're just accepting it!"

"They want us to be their target? Let's see which fools dare to step on that target!"

Roy stood up, walked to the window, and looked down at the thriving Beehive Island below.

"The defense system of Beehive Island has been initially established, and our strength is steadily improving."

"Perfect. Let's use those fools who were lured in by the bounty to test our mettle and give the new recruits some practice."

Roy turned around, his eyes sharp.

"However, internal adjustments and division of labor must be clearly defined. We cannot become complacent and forget our fundamentals just because the reward is high."

"Next, I will be rearranging everyone's responsibilities."

The meeting room fell silent as everyone put away the excitement brought on by the bounty and looked at Roy intently.

"Barrett." Roy looked at the battle maniac.

"exist!"

"You are responsible for the combat training of the entire regiment and the management of 'Trial Island'."

We will select promising individuals from among the surrendered pirates and islanders to form and train our own combat forces.

Your task is to build an elite force.

"Haha! Leave it to me!"

"I guarantee they'll scream with excitement after training!"

Barrett patted his chest, this task was exactly what he wanted.

"Hawkeye, Mihawk."

"The improvement and implementation of the defense system, security patrols, and guard system of Beehive Island and all its surrounding islands."

You are fully responsible.

You are the sharpest eyes, and the most reassuring sword.

Hawkeye nodded calmly: "Okay."

"Tezzolo".

"What are your orders, boss?" Tesoro immediately sat up straight.

"All commercial activities, tax revenue, resource allocation, and even future foreign trade and financial operations on Beehive Island are under your control."

I want to see Beehive Island's economy functioning healthily, with sufficient financial resources to support our development and expansion.

Tesoro's eyes shone brightly with golden light; this was his area of ​​expertise.

"Don't worry, boss! I'll make Beehive Island the richest island in the New World!"

"Crocodile." Roy looked at Crocodile.

Crocodile raised an eyebrow.

"You are meticulous and have a keen eye. You have also shown a talent for intelligence analysis recently."

You will be responsible for building and leading the intelligence network of Beehive Island, which includes infiltration, bribery, reconnaissance, and counter-reconnaissance.

We need to extend our eyes and ears to every corner of the new world, especially to those forces hostile to us.

Crocodile took a puff of his cigar, slowly exhaled the smoke, and a cold smile curled at the corner of his lips.

"Interesting, I'll take this task."

I will make the intelligence network on Beehive Island more efficient than the World Government's CP organization.

"Bear."

Xiong looked at Roy gently.

"You are responsible for the livelihood affairs of the islanders, including housing, medical care, education, dispute mediation, as well as the integration and reassurance of newcomers."

You are kind and good at communication; this job is perfect for you.

The bear smiled and nodded.

"I will do my best to make everyone feel safe and comfortable living on Beehive Island."

"Cyrus, Savage, Enel, Pea, Charon, Yamato."

The six people immediately straightened up.

"The six of you, as the auxiliary leaders of the mobile forces and various areas, will assist the aforementioned individuals."

At the same time, we focus on improving our own capabilities.

Stella will provide details on the specific division of labor later.

"Understood!" the six replied in unison.

"Stella, Scarlett," Roy said, looking at the two female executives.

"Captain," Stella and Scarlett nodded.

"You two will be responsible for overall coordination, document processing, daily management, and reminders and records of important matters."

Stella focuses on intelligence analysis and strategic planning, while Scarlett focuses on domestic administration and cultural development.

If you have any difficult decisions or important matters, then report them to me.

"Yes!" The two solemnly accepted the order.

"Moria, the CP quintet (Lucci, Kaku, Jabra, Bruno, Kalifa)."

Moria chuckled, while Lucci and the others looked serious.

"Moria, you will cooperate with Crocodile in intelligence work."

Your Shadow-Shadow Fruit ability gives you a unique advantage in stealth and reconnaissance.

"CP five-person group, your main task at present is to improve your strength."

Lucci and Kaku, you have great potential. I will personally monitor your training progress.

Others also need to work hard.

Once you reach the required level of competence and pass the loyalty test, you will be assigned more important tasks.

Moria, Lucci, and the others agreed.

"Everyone else, please do your job well."

Roy concluded by saying,

"The bounty is an empty title, a pressure, and a motivation."

The Navy wants us to be the target of everyone's attacks, so let's stand firm and show them just how tough this "target" is!

"From today onwards, Beehive Island enters a new stage of development."

External pressures will increase, but internally we must be more united and efficient!

"Is there a problem?!"

"No!" the crowd shouted in unison, their morale soaring.

End of the meeting,

The group departed with new responsibilities and high morale.

Roy stood alone by the window, gazing at the distant horizon.

A bounty storm has begun, and Hive Island will become the new focus of the new world.

At this moment, in the waters surrounding Beehive Island,

The pirate alliance that had been eyeing this place and trying to cut off its supplies also received a new bounty.

Upon seeing Roy's bounty of $1.85 billion, the leaders were shocked.

Greed and murderous intent swelled to their limit.

"We can't wait any longer!"

Alliance leader "Blood Axe" Locke, with a bounty of 420 million, slammed his fist on the table.

"The Roy Pirates are growing too fast!"

With such a high reward, it's bound to attract even more attention!

We must act before the other major powers react.

"Strike first and seize this lucrative prize, Beehive Island!"

That's right!

No matter how high their bounty is, they're just a bunch of young people! Our pirate crews joining forces...

With over five thousand troops and more than a hundred ships, how could we possibly fail to capture a newly established Beehive Island?!

Another leader,

"Venom" Sanchez (with a bounty of 380 million) chimed in.

"I heard they rescued some scholars from Ohara? Those heads are worth a fortune!"

The world government would definitely be willing to pay a hefty price!

"And their treasure... If we take Beehive Island, we'll be rich!"

Greed clouded his judgment, and fear (fear of the Roy Pirates' rapid growth) fueled his determination to take the plunge.

Driven by the bounty and their own ambitions, this loose alliance of five medium-sized pirate crews...

They finally decided to stop sabotaging things behind the scenes and instead gather all their strength to launch a decisive surprise attack on Beehive Island!

A major battle against Beehive Island is about to begin.

Meanwhile, the Roy Pirates were completely unaware of this, enjoying the orderly development that came with clearly defined responsibilities.
