One Piece: Farming from the Rocks Era

"Your navy is big and powerful. It's only 10 billion berries, which is not as high as my bounty. There will be no problem for you to take it out!"

Whitebeard was very satisfied when he saw Kong's expression, but he showed no intention of giving in!

"Hahahaha, that's right, Admiral Kong. These are all the subordinates who followed Vice Admiral Sengoku to conquer the New World. Without them, the Navy's power in the entire New World would be greatly weakened."

"If any pirates get out of control, the damage may be more than 10 billion!"

Lind also assisted from the side.

It's free money anyway, so just ask for a high price. I believe the navy will give a satisfactory answer.

"Impossible, at most 50 million Baileys. Our navy's funding is also limited. Zhan Guo will also find a way to overcome the difficulties!"

"Gulala, 800 million Baileys, Kong, we are still sincere!"

"That's right, 800 million Baileys. You decide the location. As long as it's not somewhere like the Navy Headquarters, we can deliver it to your door!"

The two sides fought back and forth, and when Kong refused to give in, the Navy finally paid 180 million Baileys to redeem the people and warships.

As for the transaction location and method, Whitebeard and Lind only need to wait where they are. Soon Zefa and Sengoku will catch up and take them away.

"Gulala, Kong, it's been a pleasure working with you. We'll look for you next time something like this happens."

After the conversation, Whitebeard was in a very good mood and laughed and teased Kong. Unfortunately, Kong did not continue talking to Whitebeard and hung up the phone directly.

Soon, Linde met Zhan Guo again, and there was a young man with purple hair with him, who should be Zefa.

"Gulala, Sengoku, nice to see you again. Your subordinates are all doing well on my ship!"

"Also, do you have money?"

"Humph, Newgate, Lind, you did a really good job this time!"

The current Sengoku is still too immature compared to the future naval marshal. Even from a distance, Lind could feel Sengoku's gnashing teeth!

"Hmph, no need to say more, I've brought the money, of course. I'll hand over the money and the person!"

Zefa next to him patted Sengoku on the shoulder, then walked up to Whitebeard and Lind and spoke.

Fortunately, Zefa happened to be delivering funds to various naval branches in the New World this time, otherwise there would be no way to redeem Sengoku's men so quickly.

"Gulala, then hand over the money and the person at the same time!"

There was no excessive pleasantries between the two sides this time. After Whitebeard and Lind received the money, they released the captured navy and warships and headed towards the direction of Honeycomb Island!

......

In a blink of an eye, after sailing on the sea for seven days, the pirate ship returned to Beehive Island again!

And during these seven days, Lind's name resounded throughout the entire ocean.

The new cadre of the Rocks Pirates and the captain of the 7th Division became the most prominent figure in the entire ocean in a short period of time.

He was less than 20 years old and had been in the industry for less than a month, but he already had a bounty of over 600 million, becoming a world-famous pirate!

When Whitebeard's pirate ship was about to return to Beehive Island, the entire Beehive Island port was crowded with people, all wanting to meet this newly rising legendary figure.

Some newcomers even hope to join him and become veterans.

Even Rocks himself came with his spare cadres to greet the two.

After all, it was the first time that the Rocks Pirates achieved such a perfect victory, making the second-in-command of the Navy, Sengoku, who was known as a wise general, so embarrassed.

(According to my setting, there was only one admiral in the navy during this period, so although Sengoku was still a vice admiral, he was also the second-in-command of the navy.)

"Hahaha, Shiki, with Lind's current reputation, he will probably have to form the Seventh Division directly. There's no way I can be your vice-captain!"

"Hahahaha, boss, Lin De is my good brother. I am very happy that he is so famous now."

"But you, Boss, you owe me a vice-captain position. Next time you find a suitable candidate, you must think of me!"

"Hahaha, let Lind take over this job. I believe he can find you a pretty good helper!"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right. I can't let you take all the advantage. I don't have a deputy captain right now. When can you arrange one for me, Boss?"

"I think the new kid from the ghost tribe is pretty good! He can become a qualified warrior after a little training. He has already recognized me as his sister, so don't compete with me for it when the time comes!"

"Newgate and Lind are coming over. Let's not talk about this for now. We are not the protagonists today!"

Sure enough, Whitebeard's ship had already stopped at the port, and Whitebeard and Linde were now walking towards them side by side!

"Gulala, everyone, long time no see!"

Chapter 13 Pirate Selection

This time, Whitebeard did not recite a wave of poems on Beehive Island like Shiki did.

He and Lind just released a little bit of their aura, then went up to the Beehive Island and walked towards Rocks and the others.

"Hahaha, I thought Newgate would be the same as Ski. The poem he and Lind recited in front of the Warring States a few days ago was quite good!"

"Hahahaha, that's why he's the captain of the first team, he's just more stable than some people!"

Several people looked at Whitebeard and inexplicably recalled the scene when Shiqi returned to Beehive Island, and they all started teasing Shiqi.

"Hahahahaha, as a pirate, I must be free. I will say whatever I want to say!"

"This guy Newgate is obviously restraining himself now!"

Shiqi didn't care about the teasing of the others, instead he teased Whitebeard.

"Gulala, I don't have the habit of showing off in front of people! I did it before just to suppress the momentum of the Warring States!"

Whitebeard, who was walking over, heard what Shiqi said and fought back without hesitation.

"Hahahaha, we don't know what you are thinking!"

"Let's not talk about this anymore. You are only half the protagonist today."

"Linde, you did a great job this time. You gave the navy a slap in the face!"

"Don't be the vice-captain of Golden Lion now. Just take over as the captain of the Seventh Division and form the Seventh Division. Many people who came here today came for you and want to join your Seventh Division!"

Rocks interrupted the conversation between the few people and began to talk to Lind about the formation of the Seventh Team.

"I'll give you two months to renovate your Xiaoyao, and then recruit and train a group of qualified subordinates."

"It just so happens that you are in the limelight right now. If you go out, you will be easily targeted by the navy. You can hide on Beehive Island for the next two months!"

"Hahahaha, that's right, if you need any help in the next two months, just ask, I will never refuse you brother!"

It can be seen that Rocks and the top leaders of Beehive Island still value Lind very much and are really willing to make Lind the new captain of the Rocks Pirates.

"Hahahaha, thank you Captain and all the captains for your help. If you need any help in the future, I will do my best!"

In response to the goodwill shown by several people, Lind quickly expressed his gratitude and made goodwill gestures.

“Hahahaha, in that case, let’s not postpone it for another day. Let’s select the first batch of team members for you today!”

"It just so happens that the new batch of pirates who joined earlier have not yet decided where to go. I guess there are many who would be very happy to become members of the Seventh Division!"

Rocks made the first arrangement very domineeringly.

"Hahahaha, thank you for your help, Captain!"

Lind was not dissatisfied with Rocks' arrangement. He wanted to become the captain earlier and start farming and developing himself earlier.

"Hahahaha, guys, to celebrate the victory of our captains of the 1st and 7th divisions, today the Rocks Pirates will select a group of new members to serve as members of the headquarters and each division!"

"All old members should leave the port ten kilometers away, and those who are willing to participate in the selection should stay!"

As Rocks' voice fell, just ten minutes later, the crowd in the port was clearly divided into two parts!

Rocks looked at the thousands of people left in the port, nodded with satisfaction, and waved his hand, saying:

"Hahahahaha, then, let's follow the old rules of the Rocks Pirates!"

"The remaining 300 people can join the team they want to join. Of course, this requires your captain to be willing to accept you!"

“Hahahaha! Let the fighting begin!”

As Rocks' voice fell, the pirates remaining in the port instantly started fighting each other.

Almost every pirate who can come to Beehive Island is an old pirate who has killed countless people.

In just ten seconds, Lind saw at least hundreds of people falling on the battlefield. Lind intuitively felt the fragility of life.

Despite some discomfort, Lind is very clear about his identity and respects the fate of others.

Lind used his telekinesis expressionlessly to cover the entire battlefield. Although most of the pirates in the port were far inferior to Lind in strength, each of them could be said to be a veteran in the battlefield, and all kinds of combat experience benefited Lind a lot.

Through telekinesis, Lind can also more clearly feel the strength of the pirates present.

Soon, many pirates stood out and attracted Lind's attention.

The most prominent one among them is a young man who is over six meters tall with horns on his head. Lind is probably a demon like Kaido.

I have to say that the ghost race is really blessed by nature. It is probably the strongest fighting race after the giant race.

The tall but immature-faced young demon on the battlefield, using his unskilled armed color domineering, waved the stick in his hand without any rules, and could sweep away all the pirates wherever he passed with his absolute power!

"Gulala, the ghost tribe is really a natural fighting race. The ghost in the middle is probably only fourteen or fifteen years old, and has not received any training, yet he has such powerful strength!"

"Brother Linde, are you interested? I think he is very suitable to be trained as your deputy. You are both young geniuses, so you will definitely get along well!"

Newgate next to him also noticed this young ghost and started chatting with Lind.

"Hahahaha, of course I am attracted to such a potential subordinate, but it depends on his intention. I don't like to force things."

"Well, well, you're right. This little ghost has great potential. As for who he will join, that's up to him!"

In addition to Rocks, several other squad leaders also showed interest in this young demon boy. Obviously, most of the squad leaders present were optimistic about his potential.

In addition to this young demon boy, there are many other pirates who have also shown sufficient strength and potential.

The captains present also chatted about the pirates who performed well on the field.

For example, a short and sturdy dual-sword swordsman, holding two machetes in his hands, slashes from east to west and from west to east, and wherever he passes, blood flows like a river.

It reminded Lind of a character in a movie from his previous life!

There is also an animal-type Black Cat Fruit user who is proficient in both spear and sword. Although he is an animal-type devil fruit user, his strongest skill is spear.

The transformation made Lind dream back to his childhood!

There are other powerful pirates, some with powerful physical skills, swordsmanship, or powerful devil fruits, all of whom are very strong, but it is obvious that the first two interest Lind more.
