I, a Celestial Dragon!
Page 123
I want to control every Shichibukai, and then use the Shichibukai as the core to attract every outstanding young person in the world who is constantly wavering between the navy and pirates and has not yet gone to sea!
I don’t care whether they are good or evil, and I don’t care about their goals, because I will dominate their good and evil, and I will also create their goals!
I need someone with ideals, ambitions, responsibilities and a sense of responsibility.
But I also need people who don’t have the above advantages, but only have strength and talent!
This money may be a burden to you, but for many people, money will not become a burden in everyone's heart!
The sea is vast only when it can accommodate all rivers. While promoting and publicizing our style of doing things and ideals, we attract talents with justice and stability.
I must also use wealth to attract talents who are not so righteous, but equally talented!
Once they are under my command, I will decide for them whether they are just or not. Not to mention how much power they can provide us, if I only use a little money, I can prevent those evildoers who are qualified to become powerful from doing evil.
That would make sense, wouldn't it?
And you will serve as role models and benchmarks in this process. As long as you are qualified to wear the Xuanniao badge, you will start with 6 billion Baileys a year!
I want to tell the world through you that any capable people who come among us will be treated far better than the navy and pirates!
Because in my eyes, every outstanding person will not be buried.
I only consider strength, regardless of other things. The capable will be promoted and the mediocre will be demoted. This is the fairness that I want to bring to ourselves first, and then to everyone in the world!
Do you understand me now?"
After he finished speaking, Gawain looked at Jinbei and raised his glass to him.
As for Jinbei, after a brief shock, the burly man took a deep breath.
"Is this the mind of an adult?
I...how could I have the honor to stand behind you, my Lord!"
I saw that Shi Ping's face became serious.
"I understand. I will accept the large salary. Thank you, Master Gawain!"
After he finished speaking, Jinbei sat back on the beach chair with emotion. Looking at Gawain's figure, Jinbei shrank his neck in shame, unable to shrink it.
Compared with adults, my vision is so short-sighted!
On the side, after experiencing what happened to Jinpei, everyone who originally did not intend to accept the salary all gave up the idea of discussing it with Gawain.
As for Rayleigh, the old man raised an eyebrow at Gawain.
Among so many young people just now, only this old man instantly understood Gao Wen’s meaning.
Look at what it means to have an old person in the family, like a treasure.
Seeing that everyone accepted the proposal, Gao Wen nodded with satisfaction. Although this was not much more than annuity, he thought about it carefully.
Those who receive the annuity are either the Shichibukai and general-level players, or players like Franky and Iceberg who are capable of creating trillions of profits.
Even if there were thirty or fifty people who were qualified to wear the Black Bird Badge, Gawain would only have to pay him and Musgarud's annual salary. But if Gawain had thirty or fifty subordinates as powerful as the one in front of him.
Then he can almost beat the Four Emperors together!
It's worth it, isn't it?
So, with a satisfied smile, Gawain continued.
“In addition to the issue of annuities, I must talk about how we can increase our income. Next, we have to sell the big ships, build casinos, and use the prisoners.
And every step of the way, my wealthy compatriots living in Marijoa are indispensable.
Kalifa, bring me the Den Den Mushi. It's time for me to have a good chat with Charulia.
I will invite the whole family to visit my new boat and also invite Xia Lulia to have lunch with us.
In this regard, everyone knows what to do, right?
That's showing off!
Xia Lulia is a girl who supports me very much. She gave me almost all her money. She let it go, and I talked to her alone.
But for his father Rozward and brother Charlos.
You must show off our ship in front of them!
If they don’t place an order after dinner, their pension this year will be halved!
I mean what I say, haha!"
Chapter 126 God avoids!
Hearing Gawain's threat, which had no deterrent effect, everyone around him rolled their eyes.
Gion chuckled as she spoke comfortably.
“Yes, it’s terrible, sir, that’s half of the annual pension.
If the three billion Baileys a year are deducted, we can only buy two and a half fewer Marcos~."
At this point, Gion held up a glass of sake and raised it to Gao Wen.
Gawain smiled and took a sip of wine, then put down the glass. He turned to Franky and Iceborg and asked.
"By the way, the Xuanniao costs about 720 billion. Is this the cost price?"
"Of course, my lord!"
Espagu was immediately shocked.
"I will never embezzle the budget on our ship, and I am not a short-sighted person. Don't worry, my lord. I have already handed over the accounts to Miss Kalifa!"
"Haha, don't be nervous, that's not what I meant."
Gawain waved his hand at Español.
"What I mean is, build a ship similar to the Xuanniao, but without the special technology included in ours.
The idea is that the ship, apart from being large enough and luxuriously decorated, does not need wings, jet devices, or other things that increase the budget.
So what do you think the cost of a normal giant cruise ship for my people would be?"
"I understand!"
Espagu nodded.
“When I was manufacturing the Xuanniao, I had already thought about this issue, so I made a special mental note of it.
If we exclude the ordinary large ships used for combat and special acceleration, and without amphibious capabilities, the cost price is only about 220 billion. Even if luxurious decoration is added, the budget will not exceed 280 billion Baileys. "
Having said that, Espagu pointed to the wings of the Xuanniao.
“This pair of wings really cost a lot of money, whether it’s the material used to make the wings, the machinery that ensures the wings move regularly, or the Adam resin that prevents the wings from excessive wear and tear.
This pair of wings alone is more expensive than the ship itself!"
I saw Ice Pago glaring at Franky fiercely.
"That's why the first shipbuilding budget was only 300 billion berries. The idea of the wings came from Franky's sudden inspiration!"
"But this sudden inspiration allowed Xuanniao to break through the limitations of the sea, and that's enough."
Gawain interrupted Acebargo's complaints, and then he pondered for a moment.
“The cost is 300 billion. After Rozward arrives at the banquet, I will announce that I spent 1 trillion on the purchase of the ship.
After all, the basic price of a large ship is too high, even the Celestial Dragons cannot afford it easily. The profit of about 700 billion for a ship, leaving aside the working hours and labor costs, is already a very good profit.
But my judgment is not as good as yours truly, Espagu, do you think this price is appropriate?"
"I..., I only want 880 billion..."
Faced with Gawain's suggestion, Espagu shook his head in shame.
It's okay that I'm not as good as you in status, position, ambition and determination. Everyone has their own expertise, and you are a natural leader by nature.
But now, in my job as a businessman, I am not even more greedy than you!
In silence, Acebag secretly made up his mind that after the casino opened, he would have to be more ruthless!
As for Gawain, upon hearing Espagu's answer, he smiled and raised his glass.
"Since Acebagu thinks it's okay, then the number is set. After Rozward arrives at the banquet, everyone should not let anything slip.
That’s all for tonight. It’s time for me to rest. I have to get up for training tomorrow morning.
Cheers, everyone! "
……
Just as the Xuanniao was slowly sailing out of the doldrums, the Sabaody Archipelago.
A ship with an extremely slow speed and an extremely erratic trajectory slowly collided with other ships docked at the pier.
The ship that was hit was a pirate ship. It was the middle of the night and a group of pirates were eating hot pot and singing songs when they were suddenly hit by someone.
So a group of drunken pirates immediately followed their captain, rushed to the deck and cursed at the small ship that had rammed theirs.
"Damn it, who actually rammed our ship? Our captain is Blue-haired Joe with a bounty of 64 million... Gulu Gulu Gulu...?!!"
Before the pirate could finish his words, a circle of circular waves suddenly spread out around their ship.
The pirate simply felt his body sinking, and then he sank into the sea along with their ship!
About two minutes later, the ship broke through the sea water and floated to the surface again, but the flooded ship could not operate normally at all.
Soon, the ship capsized, and the pirates on board all crowded onto the side of the ship floating above the sea.
While trying their best to stand firm, the panicked sailors looked at the ship that had just hit them in confusion.
The sailors shouted in fear.
"Then... everyone on that ship is dead!"
"They're all dead!!!"
The embarrassed blue-haired Joyce widened her eyes.
"No wonder even I couldn't react, this must be a ghost ship!!!"
Just like that, when the news of the ghost ship spread on Shabaodi Island, an uncle wearing a blue-purple samurai uniform, with his eyes covered with X-shaped scars and a simple cane sword on his waist, came to a Kabuki house in the illegal area of Shabaodi.
Facing the ferocious-looking receptionist, the uncle smiled slightly, then he took out a crumpled newspaper from his pocket and handed it to the receptionist.
"I happened to be in a casino on Monbara Island and heard the news that Shampoodi was preparing to hold a world gambling competition.
Oh, it's really difficult. As a blind person, I really can't see the words on the newspaper.
But because of my love for gambling, I caused trouble for many kind people.
Through their advice, I finally came here.
Excuse me, is this competition over? If not, where can I sign up?"
"Ha, another idiot from outside, this is the no-man's land of Sabaody Island, even the Celestial Dragons won't pass through here!
Sign up, I ask you to sign up! "
While laughing, the receptionist in the blind uncle's ear slapped him!
At this moment, the sound of wind around seemed to pause, and the blind uncle suddenly drew his sword and then turned his wrist.
"Humph!"
With a light snort, the blind uncle gracefully sheathed his sword, while the fake greeter in front of him, who was actually a cunning villain, did not even have a piece of cloth left on his body!
Just like that, half an hour later, on Tree Island No. 55, at the door of the Carrera Company's branch on Shabaodi Island.
The cunning villain really turned into a real greeter. He escorted the blind uncle into the registration point with great respect.
It was already midnight, and the lady in charge of reception at the registration point looked very tired.
But what Carrera Company gave was really too much, so the young lady rubbed her eyes and gave the blind uncle a gentle smile.
But in the next moment, when the young lady saw the blind uncle's eyes ruined by scars, she suddenly stopped!
If it were a normal time, the well-trained young lady might not reveal her true colors as easily as she did now.
But the late hour and exhaustion prevented her from concentrating.
