Sailing: I Open Treasure Chests in the Pirate World

King Becley returned to the Kingdom of Sorbe with three naval warships.

Once the bear is no match for the enemy.

The rule of the Kingdom of Sorbe will once again fall into the hands of King Becqueli.

By then, Burdog had no idea how many more outrageous things King Beckley would do.

"King Bear..."

Burdog gazed out at the sea, muttering to himself.

"We have to win..."

at this time.

Suddenly, Burdog saw the shadows of three ships appear on the sea.

However, the appearance of these three warships was different from the iron-gray warships that the previous king had in mind.

Even more bizarrely, in front of these three white boats, there was an enormous creature pulling the boats...

"what is that?"

Burdog couldn't help but rub his eyes.

"It has wings, like... a dragon???"

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon dragged three naval warships all the way to the shore before stopping.

Ian manipulated the clay to transfer all the living people on the warship to the shore.

Among them was Bartholomew the Bear.

King Bekley and naval soldiers were also present.

Ian was the last to leave the naval warship.

As soon as he stepped off the boat, he noticed a group of elderly men standing on the shore.

"Boss!"

Kidd and Kira stood beside an elderly man with gray hair, one on each side watching over him.

"This old man is the current king of the Kingdom of Sorbe!"

"I am not a king."

Burdog, sandwiched between two young men, calmly explained.

“I am the ruler of the kingdom, Burdog.”

"What do you mean by governing or not governing?"

Kidd frowned and said impatiently.

"You rule this country, but if you're not the king, then who is?"

“Bartholomew the Great Bear is the true king of the Kingdom of Sorbe.”

"Bulldog said in a deep voice."

"At least, he is still the king of this country for now."

"Alright, Kidd, Kira, go and take stock of the supplies on the warship."

Ian waved to the red-haired spiky man and the blond wavy man, then walked up to Bulldog.

"Your Excellency, may I ask where the Great Bear King's 'palace' is?"

Burdog's eyes were fixed on the beaming Ian, while his gaze occasionally swept over the clay bear figurine beside him.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion.

Boordoug felt that this big bear looked very familiar...

"who are you?"

"Ian Adrian, a 'pirate captain' who wants to invite Big Bear to sail the seas, but has not yet succeeded."

"Pirate captain? Pirate?"

Burdog raised his gray eyebrows and looked at Ian strangely.

"You don't look like a pirate..."

"Old man, isn't there a saying that goes, 'You can know a person's face but not their heart'?"

Ian looked at the "clay bear figurine" next to him and instantly peeled off its outer clay shell.

“Look at this ‘tyrant,’ he may look quite mighty and strong, but in reality he’s just an indecisive man.”

"King Bear!"

Upon seeing the unconscious Bartholomew Bear, Burdog was instantly horrified.

"Pirate! What did you do to him?"

"Old man, you changed your address a little too quickly (to Li Hao)..."

Ian's lips twitched.

"Don't worry, I just did a simple test of 'Tyrant's' strength. I didn't hit him hard. He should wake up soon."

Boordoug was unwilling to believe Ian's side of the story.

He leaned on his cane, walked quickly to the bear's side, and listened to its heart for a while.

After hearing that the bear's heartbeat was still steady and strong.

Burdogger finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He turned to look at Ian, his expression becoming even stranger.

"You, are you really a pirate?"

"Although I have no fame, no flag, no ships, and no subordinates yet..."

Ian said with absolute certainty.

"But I really am a pirate!"

"...I understand this world less and less now."

Burdog was silent for a long time before exhaling a breath of stale air.

"What are you doing in the Kingdom of Sorbet, such a young pirate?"

"Recruit subordinates."

Ian said it very frankly.

"And plunder while we're at it."

Burdog's pupils contracted slightly, and he feigned composure as he said, "Use."

"The Kingdom of Sorbe is very poor..."

"What does this have to do with me?"

Ian pointed to the three warships on the sea.

"Do you see those three ships?"

"Saw."

"Old man, do you know how much a large warship costs to build?"

Chapter 68 My family's boat is big and comfortable!

On this turbulent sea, what is the most "hard" form of currency?

It wasn't awarded the title of "Pele" by the World Government.

It is not "gold" as a precious metal.

Instead, they are seemingly inconspicuous "ships"!

In the world-renowned shipbuilding city of Seven Waters.

A well-preserved secondhand ship would cost around 100 million Berries.

If it were a brand new ship, the price would be at least 300 million Berries!

You should know that even the legendary "treasure of the sea"—the Devil Fruit.

The average selling price of a Devil Fruit is only 100 million Berries.

If we convert it according to this price...

A brand new ship can be exchanged for at least three Devil Fruits!

Also.

The ships that Water Seven sells to the public are usually just wooden sailing ships aimed at pirates and merchants.

What are the warships that the World Government and the Navy Headquarters rely on to navigate the seas and maintain order?

Take, for example, the three warships that Ian captured in the battle just now.

This is a large battleship made of steel, with four masts and dozens of cannons mounted on the front and sides. It can even pass through the calm zone unscathed!

Each of these large warships is nearly sixty meters long!

Based on what Ian learned at the naval academy.

Large battleships like this one, with a hull length of nearly 60 meters, are large enough to accommodate 800 naval personnel on sea operations.

Each of them often costs billions of dollars to build!

Ian wasn't sure why the World Government was involved. It could also be the Marine Headquarters—

In order to subdue Bartholomew the Great Bear, the "tyrant" of the Kingdom of Sorbe, three large warships must be dispatched at once.

Anyway, these three warships have now directly benefited Ian.

He just happened to not have a boat.

When recruiting other crew members later, Ian can point to the warship and say 253—

"My family's boat is big and comfortable!"

of course.

Ian couldn't possibly keep all three warships for himself.

He didn't have any idea of ​​"one ship to preserve, one to admire, and one to preach"...

Ian plans to keep one of the naval warships for his own use.

He wants to find a suitable "buyer" to buy the other two!

Incidentally, the hundreds of sailors on this shore should also be redeemed by that "buyer"!

Wouldn't that provide the initial start-up capital for this pirate business?

Burdog glanced at the three warships on the sea, then at the young "pirate" beside him.

"You're planning to seize these navy warships?"

"It's not that we 'intended to steal' it, it's that we 'successfully stole it'!"

Ian corrected Burdoug, he said seriously.

"If you're a pirate, of course you'll rob whoever has money!"

How much profit can you squeeze out of a poor person?

As soon as these words came out.

Burdog finally believed that the man in front of him was a lawless and notorious pirate.

Although he didn't know how to say it, the other person's disdain for the poor still made him feel relieved...

at this time.

After completing a preliminary inspection of the supplies on the three naval warships, Kidd and Kira walked over with excited expressions.
