One Piece: King of the World from White Town

"Giorno, are you interested in being my agent?"

creak-

As Giorno's heart beat faster, he mistook the brake for the accelerator and stepped on it, causing the car to stop suddenly in the middle of the road, causing the driver of the car behind that almost hit him to curse at him.

Chapter 672 Bloodline

In the Italian Mafia, the so-called agent is actually the boss's agent, that is, the second boss.

He is regarded as the "chief commander" in charge of all legion commanders and only takes orders from the boss.

If the boss is imprisoned or receiving medical treatment, or other force majeure situations occur, the second boss, as the agent of the big boss, must take responsibility, manage everything, and wait for the boss to return.

If the boss is unable to return in the end, such as death.

Generally speaking, the second boss will take over directly.

Therefore, this agent can sometimes be regarded as a successor, usually a relative or an absolute confidant whom the boss values ​​and trusts.

This is to avoid the possibility that agents would create internal strife in order to gain power.

That's why Giorno's reaction just now was so big.

For him, who had always been at the bottom of society and made a living by cheating and deceiving others, this was like a step to heaven.

And he can also use it to realize his dream of becoming a gangster superstar.

Amid the honking of many vehicles and the sound of curses, Giorno started the car again.

"Agent? Why me?"

Giorno forced himself to calm down and asked. He didn't believe that good things could come out of nowhere.

"Because you have a special talent."

Giorno's heart moved. He had wanted to ask this question for a long time. "Special talent, is this what you mean?"

[Golden Experience] suddenly appeared in the passenger seat.

"That's not entirely true, but this stand is indeed one of your special talents."

Giorno immediately caught a term, "Stand-in? What does that mean?"

Abel knew that the other party was actually a newbie who knew nothing, so he simply explained to him: "You can think of it as a supernatural ability, and people who have this kind of ability are called stand users. For example, Bucciarati last time, and you."

Giorno thought for a moment, "So... everyone can become a Stand user? In other words, what are the conditions to become a Stand user?"

Seeing that he grasped the key point at once, Abel couldn't help but shake his head in appreciation.

"If everyone could become a Stand user and possess superpowers, the world would have been turned upside down long ago."

"In fact, the number of Stand Users is extremely small. There are probably only about a hundred of them in the entire world."

"As for the condition to become a Stand User... it is the 'arrow'."

Giorno: "'Arrow'?"

"It is a magical arrow made of special meteorites. Most creatures that are pierced by it will be infected with a virus and die directly. Only those who survive the test can awaken the ability called 'Stand'."

Abel's words stunned Giorno.

Because he was very sure that in all the years he had lived, he had never seen or heard of such a thing, nor had he ever been stabbed by anything like it.

Just as he was hesitating whether to continue asking, Abel seemed to see through his thoughts and heart, and changed the subject: "Of course, not everyone needs such a test. Because this ability can also be awakened through blood."

"Bloodline?"

"For example, if someone has awakened the Stand ability and gives birth to a child, there is a high probability that the child will also awaken the Stand ability."

Giorno suddenly fell silent, as if he understood what Abel meant.

He was sure of one thing, that his mother did not possess this supernatural ability of substitution.

Let's exclude the 'arrow' that I've never heard of...

Then the biggest possibility is that his biological father is actually a stand-in!

That's why he inherited this power from his father!

This guess made him tighten his grip on the steering wheel.

Naturally, he had no good feelings towards the man he had never seen before and had no impression of.

Maybe his mother was not a good mother, not even qualified, but at least she did not abandon him when she gave birth to him, and barely let him grow up alive.

This alone is far beyond what that 'stranger' can compare to.

Before this, he always thought that the [Golden Experience] was a gift from God.

After many twists and turns, this is the truth.

It’s really unpleasant!

However, no matter how unhappy he is, Giorno will not pretend to be a mysophobe and choose not to use this ability just because his Stand ability comes from the father he has never met.

On the contrary, after knowing the truth, he will feel more at ease using it.

Because at least, he doesn't have to worry that the [Golden Experience] will suddenly leave him one day.

After figuring it out, Giorno felt as if he had let go of the burden in his heart and felt much more relaxed.

"I see. Doesn't that mean that people who possess this 'arrow' can theoretically create unlimited Stand Users? After all, the human population is huge."

Abel smiled softly, "So where do you think Bucciarati's Stand ability came from? Could it be that he also has a parent who is a Stand user?"

Giorno was stunned for a moment, "You mean the other party has an 'arrow' in his hand? No, that's not right. If I had such an item, I would never stay in a gang and work for others."

"So the truth is... the 'Arrow' is in the hands of the boss of the 'Passion' organization! He relied on awakening his subordinates as Stand Users, so he was able to expand his power to a level that surpassed old-fashioned mafia like the Camorra in such a short period of time!"

Giorno's mind worked quickly and he immediately pieced together the cause and effect of the incident.

Then his expression froze, because the guy in his car wanted to declare war on the "Passion" organization.

He felt a little chilly when he thought that the other party might have a dozen or even dozens of Stand users.

Perhaps on the front battlefield, these Stand users themselves cannot even block a bullet.

But if it was a sneak attack, the destructiveness and panic it would cause would be unimaginable.

"Although I think I do have some talent, but with all due respect, I don't see the possibility of fighting and winning against the Passionate Organization at the moment."

Giorno took a deep breath and persuaded gently.

Abel glanced at him and slowly said, "Of course you can't do it alone, so we need helpers, some helpers with special talents like you."

"where is it?"

At this moment, Giorno suddenly remembered the little dwarf from Japan who was tricked by him outside the airport that day.

That dwarf should also be a Stand user.

"You'll know when we meet tomorrow."

Abel suddenly became curious about what Bucciarati's expression would be when he saw the evening paper.

PS: In 1986, an Egyptian site expedition team (including the young Diablo) excavated six arrowheads in the desert, four of which were hollow, one had a beetle relief, and the other was questionable.

Diablo stole all the arrows and later sold five of them to Granny Enya, keeping only one.

Chapter 673: Go or Stay

"Well, I say, Bucciarati. You've been reading the newspaper all day. You don't really believe that guy can make any big news, do you?"

"If you ask me, that guy yesterday was deliberately trying to attract your attention in this way. Those ice needles must be some kind of deception, just like the magic performed on TV."

In a private room, the table in front of Bucciarati was covered with various newspapers. Even those tabloids that usually had poor sales were bought by him.

He just wasted a whole day and didn't find what he wanted there.

So much so that Narancia and the others who had been with him here for a day were becoming a little impatient.

But only Bucciarati had no intention of giving up, because his experience and intuition told him that the other party was not lying and that something big would definitely happen today.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Mr. Bucciarati, today's evening paper has been delivered, and it seems that something extraordinary has happened."

"Bring it here quickly!"

Bucciarati's eyes lit up and he immediately walked over and took all the newspapers.

As a result, the first newspaper above published what he wanted!

"The Camorra base camp was attacked by a mysterious force, and important personnel suffered heavy casualties!"

《The Camorra family officially announced that they are welcoming the new godfather! 》

《Godfather Abel's Declaration: War on the Passionate Organization!》

……

Bucciarati was like a madman, extracting key information one by one, and then summarized two important pieces of information.

First, the Camorra base camp suffered a very fierce attack, and many people died.

Second, that guy from yesterday actually turned into the godfather of Camorra today? !

It was really hard for him not to connect the two things together.

In addition to yesterday's inquiry...

He began to reasonably suspect that the person who came to his door today was most likely the same person from yesterday, and then controlled the entire Camorra in some way.

While becoming the godfather, he threw dirty water on the "passionate" organization, taking the opportunity to divert conflicts and unite against external forces.

What a good plan indeed!

It's easier said than done.

Even a Stand user can be easily killed by modern weapons.

This is also the reason why the boss will not easily send them out.

Therefore, these newspapers can be said to have revealed the man's powerful strength from a more indirect perspective.

"Is today April Fool's Day? This is too exaggerated."

"Why are you declaring war on us? Did the boss really send someone to do it?"

"This is obviously a frame-up!"

"It doesn't matter what it is. What matters is what to do with the bet between Bucciarati and the other party. The other party will obviously not give up just like that."

"Why not just ask for help from the higher-ups and let those big shots take care of it."

"Come on, putting your life in someone else's hands, don't you have a brain?"

"Ah! You dare to say that I have no brains? I will fight you!"

"That's enough, stop making trouble. Don't you think Bucciarati is also having a headache?"

……

When the noise finally died down, Bucciarati suddenly asked a question that surprised everyone.

"If, I mean if...if I choose to fulfill that promise, would you be willing to leave with me?"

This team can be said to be built by Bucciarati himself, and he has a deep bond with everyone in it.

So he also wanted to see everyone's options before making a final decision.

Mista and the others were stunned and began to look at each other.

The first to answer was the heartless Narancia. Narancia put his hands behind his head and said nonchalantly, "As for me, I will be wherever Bucciarati and Fugo are."

Fugo was the one who brought him to Bucciarati.

And Bucciarati is like his parents.

So with this kind of favor, Narancia himself didn't really care where to go, it all depended on Bucciarati and Fugo.
