Detective: I'm Sato Miwako's Informant

That man was truly terrifying. Even when facing Shiraishi Xiu and Shi Peilu on Candy Island, he hadn't sensed anything from that man.

Chapter 0359: Surrounded by Enemies

Shiraishi Osamu was unaware that BigMom had his eye on him, but even if he did, he wouldn't care at all.

Fruit Island is now ready; all that's left is to transform that candy-filled area into fruit trees.

However, they still had to buy the fruit trees themselves. Shiraishi Xiu didn't want to leave this matter to Buggy or the others, so he decided to go himself.

If Bucky and his group were to do this, they might just fill the entire island with a few simple fruits.

Shiraishi Xiu would never want to see such a scene, since developing a fruit island was Shiraishi Xiu's idea, so he would definitely modify it according to his own wishes.

Moreover, the variety of fruits available on Fruit Island is something Brother Baishi would be happy to see, which would likely motivate most of his subordinates.

After all, apart from the Big Mom Pirates, no other pirate crew has its own supply island like they do.

Now he can only go to the nearby commercial island of Spring Rain Orchid Island to see if there are any fruit seedlings he needs.

Now that he's thought about these things, Shiraishi Xiu certainly can't keep resting and waiting for the opportune moment.

He still didn't bring Beckman along, after all, Beckman, like Bucky, was a very good person to handle things on the island.

So Beckman left Beckman at headquarters and took Crocodile, Shanks, and Bucky to the commercial island of Magnolia Island.

During this period, Shiraishi Osamu's power continued to expand.

The Five Elders of the World Government are also very worried about this. Shiraishi Osamu's defection from the Marine Headquarters is already a complete break with them.

If Shiraishi Shu's eyesight were restored, it would definitely pose a great threat to their World Government in the future.

However, Shiraishi Osamu's strength was too great. To capture him, all the admirals of the Marine Headquarters would have to be mobilized at once to bring Shiraishi Osamu back to the World Government.

Although Osamu Shiraishi was only an admiral when he was in the Navy, his strength far surpassed that of any other admiral.

This is precisely why the World Government's plan to capture Shiraishi Osamu has been repeatedly delayed.

They could only watch helplessly as Shiraishi's forces continued to expand. They knew that Shiraishi had already recruited several rather famous figures on the Grand Line:

Not only that, but also Buggy the Clown, Shanks the Red-Haired, and Beckman by his side, there is also Crocodile, a Devil Fruit user whom even their World Government greatly admires.

If it weren't for Shiraishi's sudden intervention, Crocodile might have already taken over the title of Shichibukai.

Even when Osamu Shiraishi seized Big Mom's Candy Island, further expanding his power, the World Government did nothing.

It wasn't that they didn't want to do it, but rather that if Shiraishi Xiu didn't make thorough preparations, he would only bring shame upon himself.

However, Shiraishi Shu has now offended Big Mom, and the people in the World Government also know about Big Mom's past relationship with Kaido.

It seems that Shiraishi Xiu will encounter considerable trouble this time. In that case, let's send these two to test that guy Shiraishi Xiu first.

For them, any scene that someone goes to repair Shiraishi is one they are very happy to see.

Even if they're fellow pirates, so what about the others? Right now, Shiroshizu is a stone that will forever remain in their hearts.

Chapter 0360: Old Sha Goes to Sea

Moreover, according to reports from spies, Shiraishi Xiu had recaptured Candy Island.

He plans to develop it into a fruit island, in which case he will definitely go to Spring Rain Orchid Island, the commercial island closest to his current headquarters.

Keep in mind that Kaido's subordinates, the Three Disasters, are on that island.

Moreover, given Shiraishi Shu's personality, she will definitely develop a genuine relationship with these guys, which would mean she would offend both Big Mom and Kaido's crew at the same time.

These two powers are like dragons throughout the Grand Line. Even if the World Government wanted to take action against them, it would have to carefully consider its own strength.

Why not let the three of them fight to the death over 837 first? Then we can send troops to Spring Rain Island.

Shiraishi Shu, who was still on Fishman Island preparing to set off to buy seedlings, was unaware that he had already fallen into the trap set by the Five Elders and Big Mom.

Even if Shiraishi Osamu knew, he wouldn't take it to heart; his strength was his greatest source of pride.

Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to expand his power so openly, especially since the place where he established his power was an affiliated island of the Big Mom Pirates.

He had just called the three people he planned to bring to him and told them the purpose of his trip.

Moreover, Shiraishi Xiu was unaware that they would encounter two of the three calamities on Spring Rain Island.

Crocodile's face lit up with a satisfied smile when he heard that Shiraishi Shu actually wanted to take her outside with him.

Since joining the Shiraishi Osamu Pirates, he has been staying on this boring Fishman Island.

Moreover, Beckman was the only one who could speak, but that guy was so boring that even when he wanted to challenge him, Beckman ignored him.

He couldn't understand how anyone could be so boring and dull, always going about their own business.

Shouldn't pirates be fighting and killing each other? This guy is actually handling all the affairs of Fishman Island.

That's why Crocodile, after staying on the island for a week, gradually developed a dislike and aversion to Fishman Island.

That's why he's so happy now that Shiraishi Xiu wants to take him out on a mission.

Finally, I can breathe some fresh air, and I'm sure the journey won't be this easy.

Crocodile knew that no matter which mission Shiraishi and his crew went on, they only wanted to carry out simple tasks and would encounter all sorts of enemies.

Back then, I only went to buy some red stones and that's how I met myself. But this time, on my way to find a suitable island to carry out the captain's plan to destroy the Devil Fruit, I unexpectedly encountered the Candy Minister of the Big Mom Pirates.

He was already looking forward to meeting all sorts of people on his trip to Spring Rain Road, and he also knew that it was Kaido's territory.

If I were to encounter Kaido on that island, I would definitely want to have a match with him and see who is stronger.

These were all Crocodile's own, so he thought of Shiraishi Osamu.

After explaining the purpose of this mission to them all, he led the three men onto the ship.

Spring Rain Island is a very beautiful island. Shiroshi is already looking forward to what new things he will encounter on that island, or how many fruit seedlings they will be able to obtain.

Therefore, not only Crocodile was excited, but Shiraishi Osamu himself was as well.

Chapter 0361: Spring Rain on Orchid Island

However, Shiraishi Osamu never showed any emotion; he always had a poker face, no matter the situation.

When he does show his mood, it's only when he's extremely unhappy.

Whenever this happens, those who oppose him are taught a terrible lesson, a fact that Crocodile and Shanks know all too well.

"Old Sha, you absolutely mustn't show your violent temper this time!"

As Shiraishi Osamu repeatedly emphasized to the three of them that he was not worried at all; it was Buggy and Shanks who were the ones who were so restless, on the contrary.

Shiraishi Osamu had been watching the changes in Buggy all along.

He recruited Buggy to his ship because Buggy's Devil Fruit ability was too interesting.

But what Bucky did after uploading the video surprised him greatly. He never expected that someone who used to be just as wicked could now do things so well.

Just like before he joined the Navy, he would never have known that one day he would defect from the Navy.

Unlike Fruit Island, Spring Rain Island is not very close to Fishman Island, where their headquarters are located, so they will definitely waste half a day.

Throughout the journey, Old Sand was like a child, constantly asking Bucky and Shanks about what happened on Candy Island.

When they learned that even the two of them combined were no match for a candy minister, they were very much looking forward to seeing what kind of opponents they would face on this trip to Spring Rain Island.

The group was quite bored on the boat and didn't know what to do.

Shiraishi Osamu did not participate in the conversation between the three. As usual, once he set off, he returned to his room to rest.

The ship was sailing very fast, but to Crocodile it was moving at a snail's pace, making it impossible for him to see his destination, Spring Rain Island.

Despite Crocodile's seemingly fiercest appearance among all entertainers, that's just his outward appearance.

Because of the very fierce scar on his face, I thought he was scary, but actually, if you spend time with Crocodile, you'll find him to be quite interesting.

"Shanks, why do you think the captain went to all that trouble to build this fruit island?"

"How would we know? But since the captain did that, he must have had his reasons."

0. Requesting flowers.......

"Stop arguing, we'll be at Spring Rain Island soon. Hopefully, we won't encounter any unnecessary trouble like before!"

The three chatted idly, wondering what kind of trouble they would encounter this time. Soon, as they talked, they approached Spring Rain Island.

Looking at the seemingly very rich island ahead, Shanks and Buggy were both filled with longing.

If their cities were as strong as this, that would be quite impressive.

Before this, they were all lone wolves adventuring on the sea.

But since joining the Shiraishi Osamu Pirates, I have come to understand why Shiraishi Osamu has so many followers.

They had already considered themselves members of the Shiraishi Osamu Pirates.

They were also happy to work with the captain, so they never neglected any task assigned to them by Shiraishi Osamu.

The fact that the captain brought everyone along this time demonstrates the importance he places on the establishment of Fruit Island.

They all shared the same thought: they had to do this job well.

Chapter 0362: Drought Jack

At this moment, Shiraishi Osamu also left the room and came to the deck.

Although no one had ever informed Shiraishi and the others in advance that they were approaching their destination.

However, as soon as the ship set sail, Shiraishi Shu had already covered the entire area around the ship with Observation Haki to avoid interference from the sea kings.

After all, the area they are in now is the one with the most "837" Sea King creatures in the waters near Fishman Island throughout the entire Grand Line.

Shiraishi Xiu had to be careful. Although he could easily deal with even attacks from sea king-like creatures, this way he could avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble, so why not?

It was precisely because of his Observation Haki that he knew he was about to arrive at Spring Rain Island.

"Captain, what's wrong with you...?"

Just as Buggy was about to speak, Shiraishi Osamu raised his hand to stop him.

"We might run into some troublesome people on this island again!"

The three people who heard this were very puzzled, since the island in front of them seemed peaceful.

How could there possibly be anyone here who could cause trouble for the captain?

However, although Shiraishi Osamu had predicted what would happen after they arrived on the island, they did not give up on going there.
