Arceus' Pirate Journey
Page 441
This is the condition for all beasts to protect an island and control the island's foreign trade rights.
Wano Country is the most typical country. Since it has been built into the base camp of all beasts, the domestic economy is a completely closed-loop circulation, and beasts are the only way for the people to communicate with the outside world.
Moreover, their methods were very clever and greatly improved the quality of life of the people, which also strengthened the foundation of their rule.
Most of the islands that have been completely ruled have followed this approach. These islands have vaguely formed a kingdom of beasts, and outsiders have no chance to intervene.
The rules are not so strict for islands that only fly flags, but the sale of items on the island also requires the consent of the Beasts. The Beasts provide escort services and take their own commission from it.
Whitebeard did not ask for anything when he protected Fishman Island, he only lent the flag to Neptune because of personal relationship.
Although this does not involve any financial burden, the protection provided by Whitebeard is also limited.
Although the beasts collect profits, they bind themselves and the islands they protect into an economic community. Although it costs money, it makes people feel more at ease.
Perospero was not interested in the system of the Beasts. After all, they had their own management methods. But the problem was that Quinn's words were basically a threat to him.
"So what did you say you wanted to buy? What did you call me just now?"
"...Handsome...cool...Quinn, can you allow me to buy some desserts from Fishman Island?"
Perospero uttered the painful word with difficulty, and even covered his chest when he finished speaking.
Even though he was a vicious and cruel pirate, this sentence went against his conscience.
If he wasn't worried about being punished by his mother, he would never have said this to Quinn.
"Well, you are quite honest."
"That snack thing..."
"Not for sale."
"You...what did you say?"
"I said I won't sell it. The weather on Fishman Island has been bad recently. The workers are not in the mood to work. The production of snacks is not high at all. It is not enough for us to consume internally. How can we sell you the extra share?
Don't you think so, Left Minister? "
Quinn looked seriously at the Left Minister in charge of Finance of Fishman Island, and the Left Minister gave an affirmative answer.
The people in front of them are all pirates, and Perospero and the others are not familiar with them, so they will definitely speak for Quinn.
......
"Quinn! You fooled me, you bastard!"
Perospero also became angry after listening to Quinn's teasing remarks.
"Yeah, I was just kidding you. You destroyed my banana plantation, and I will never forget it."
"When did I destroy your banana plantation?"
"Have you forgotten about that incident more than 20 years ago?"
It was only after Quinn's reminder that Perospero recalled the incident.
"It's been so many years! You keep picking on me just because of something as trivial as this?!"
"A small matter? You actually said that was a small matter?! If you weren't the son of Charlotte Lingling, I would have killed you long ago!"
To Quinn, anyone who touched his food was an irreconcilable hatred. Although the incident had passed, Quinn never let it go.
"Your banana plantation was destroyed because that woman kicked you around like a ball! Can you blame me for it all?!"
"If you hadn't been the one causing the trouble, would that woman have made a move? Besides, you were the one being kicked around like a ball. That was a combo move! Do you understand a combo move? You uneducated, long-tongued freak!"
After hearing Quinn bring up the past, Perospero also uncovered Quinn's past.
To be honest, the "Quinn Bowling" did cause some damage, but Quinn couldn't afford to offend Sha Yinna, and Perospero's invasion was the root cause of the damage to the banana plantation.
In this situation, Quinn naturally put all his negative emotions on Perospero and began to show off his high education.
"We are all pirates, why are you pretending?"
"I've worked with Vegapunk before, and I'm a genius scientist who's no less talented than him. Don't you read the newspaper?"
Taking advantage of the blame on himself, Quinn silenced Perospero. Seeing that the plan could not be realized, Perospero simply left.
This guy Quinn was obviously against him and would not compromise no matter how much he said, so he might as well go back to Cake Island and be punished.
As long as Charlotte Lingling didn't go crazy because of her bulimia, she wouldn't make him so miserable because of this kind of thing. At least he didn't intend to suffer this in front of Quinn.
.......
After dealing with all the pirates who tried to kidnap mermaids, Quinn demonstrated the majesty of the Beasts in front of the remaining people and drove Perospero away. He also completed the mission and then he saw Hawkins fiddling with cards.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm doing some divination, and the predictions from the cards show that there's a 95% chance that I can successfully join you. There's a 50% chance that I can become a full member, and a % chance that I can be promoted to a cadre."
"Divination? What's the use of this thing?"
"Sir Quinn, divination is a very special thing, and I noticed something very special about you."
"Hmm? Am I so special?"
"Yes, because no matter how I predict, the probability of you experiencing a bloody disaster is 100%. This kind of thing is rare."
The unpredictable Arceus can be called the master of fate, and Quinn is a special case. The two probabilities of 0 and 100 rarely appear in Hawkins' divination. Even in a situation where death is inevitable, some people will have a % probability of survival.
People like Quinn who are destined to be unlucky are very rare.
This made Hawkins feel that his decision was the right one.
Listening to Hawkins' words, Quinn's whole body stiffened, and then he suddenly understood something.
The meaning of the word "bloody disaster" is very clear. Considering that Kaido was already drunk, it is not surprising that Quinn was unlucky.
The appearance of Hawkins made Quinn see a whole new path. This kid might be able to predict danger.
"Boy, I suddenly feel that you are very talented. I can consider letting you follow me, but you have to understand that we are the Beasts Pirates, and the Beasts Pirates do not believe in fate.
Even if fate tells you that the future is a dead end, you must still fight.
Next, I, one of the Three Plagues, the Epidemic, will personally assign you an assessment task.
The content of the test is very simple, use your divination to find a way to save me from the bloody disaster!"
Chapter 1012: Danger Warning Device, the End of the Four Emperors Era
If one were to judge status solely by bounty, Quinn would obviously be the third in command of the Beasts Pirates. Except for Arceus and Kaido, even Yamato, as the future successor of the Beasts, would not have a higher bounty than him, and this is even more true for other cadres.
Even if some practical factors were taken into consideration, Quinn still held a very high status in the Beasts, which made him particularly valued, and would be of great benefit to his future promotion.
In the original timeline, Hawkins stayed in the New World for two years, and was then tricked by Kidd and App into forming an alliance in order to defeat Red-Haired Shanks. However, App had already joined the Beasts as a traitor and lured Kaido to the meeting place.
Due to the huge gap in strength, Hawkins was forced to join the Hundred Beasts at that time.
This time it was different. He took the initiative to join the Hundred Beasts and even found his own stage to prove that he was different from those small fry.
The root of all this is that he himself is a charlatan. Divination occupies a huge part of his life. Ever since he discovered the unpredictable vortex of fate, his future direction has been determined.
He wanted to get in touch with the religious personnel of the Cult of Arceus more, but Quinn was also a good choice, especially with the special assessments he offered. If he stayed with Quinn, he would definitely be promoted to a cadre faster.
It’s just that there’s something wrong with the conditions Quinn offered.
"Your hexagram is very strange. It seems like it is destined and there is no way to get rid of it. No matter how you calculate it, it can only be delayed at most, but there is no way to exempt it."
Then Hawkins drew the card again in front of Quinn, and a card with a tower on it appeared at the top.
"Tower, the only card that has no good meaning both in upright and reversed positions. Master Quinn, your fate is very eventful, or rather, very stable."
Hawkins has already taken the initiative to call Quinn Lord, but the result given is not very satisfactory to Quinn.
"It's okay. I'll give you some time to prepare. You just need to prove your ability to me later. Now you just wait here. When this is over, I will take you away with me."
Hawkins was not qualified to attend the banquet, so Quinn just asked him to wait here, while Quinn himself returned to Ryugu Castle and reported to Kaido and Arceus what had just happened.
The person who provoked is nothing, but BIG MOM's behavior is worth mentioning.
As for Hawkins, Quinn plans to use time to verify his ability. It is good to be able to avoid risks, but if it is really impossible to avoid them, it is also great to be able to prepare himself.
......
"Lord Arceus, I just met someone from the Big Mom Pirates. They seem to have ideas about Fishman Island as well."
After returning to the banquet hall, Quinn found Arceus to report what had just happened. Although Kaido did not perform any feats like sword dancing, he was also drunk and was now arm in arm with Neptune, pouring wine to each other.
If Arceus hadn't been here, the people of Beasts would probably have to take emergency shelter.
But Kaido obviously wouldn't listen to the information, and Quinn didn't want to bring bloodshed upon himself because of this.
"How to deal with it?"
"We've already driven him away. According to the old woman's character, she won't go to war with us. After all, we have occupied this place a long time ago, and we are not competing with her for territory. But Perospero is going to be in trouble."
Quinn didn't notice that while he was reporting the intelligence, Yamato was wandering around the banquet hall with a notebook, specifically asking for information from some high-ranking and senior fishmen or mermaids.
......
After a grand banquet, the Ryugu Kingdom sent away the pirates of the Beasts, and on the way back, the revenge from the eldest lady began.
"Uncle Quinn, I heard that the Dragon Palace Kingdom once had a secret treasure."
"Hmm? What secret treasure?"
"It's the thing called the murderous medicine in the jade box. I heard that it can stimulate the potential of the human body, but it will come at a heavy price. Mandfesh even brought that thing back for you to study.
But after so many years, there seems to be no news at all."
"This... I remember researching it. That thing is of no value. It's just exchanging your life for a short burst of strength. It's too useless. In terms of practical value, it's not as good as the burst of the Sword Dance Team. I should be able to find it by looking through the report records after returning to Ghost Island."
"Really? Uncle Quinn, you are really dedicated."
Yamato made a mark on his notebook, apparently trying to find evidence of his past work, in retaliation for Quinn's attempt to "die together" during the Battle of Marineford.
This action made Quinn's heart tighten. Although nothing happened, if Yamato really caught his weakness, he might have to be taken away by Kaido for special training.
"Ms. Yamato, where did you hear about this? Aren't you not interested in this kind of thing?"
"Well, it's a secret. I'm suddenly very interested in things from the past."
A very special smile appeared on Yamato's face, which seemed extremely dangerous to Quinn.
This reminded Smiling Quinn of the bloody disaster that Hawkins had mentioned before, and he became more determined to speed up Hawkins' review process and arrange a position for him as soon as possible.
Strength and other things are another matter, but this fortune-telling ability has helped him a lot.
Ordinary people check the weather forecast before going out. If Hawkins is really useful, he can also be used as a special office assistant.
......
Then the people of Beasts began to return to Wano Country, where a grand banquet was waiting for them.
The results of the Battle of Marineford also began to gradually ferment during this period. Through the efforts of Newsbird, the whole world finally had a certain understanding of it.
[Four years ago, Red-Haired Shanks became one of the emperors of the sea. Four great pirates ruled the sea like emperors, and people called them the Four Emperors.
And today, four years later, the oldest of the Four Emperors, Whitebeard, Edward Newgate, ended his life.
This also means the end of the Four Emperors era.
Whitebeard’s last words were very simple: ONE PIECE really exists!
World Economic News Agency-Flame Photographer. 】
Morgans has a large number of daring reporters under his command, and Flame Photographer is one of them. He was the former director of the Navy's Photography Department. After being dismissed from the Navy, he joined the World Economic News Agency. When he wrote this article, he did not have any feelings for the old times.
And this is only part of the report. The series of changes surrounding the Battle of Marineford cannot be fully described in just a few articles.
The White Earth Land, Baldigo, the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army. It is here that Ryu commands the Revolutionary Army's actions in various places. And today, the Den Den Mushi at the Revolutionary Army headquarters rang again.
Chapter 1013 ASL, the injured eldest son, idol trainee, fanatical believer
"Long, you should have seen the news in the newspaper. The world is about to usher in a huge change that has never happened before."
On a ship full of transsexuals who called themselves new humans, Yin Wankov dialed the number of the Revolutionary Army headquarters. He did have Long's private number, but it could be easily eavesdropped.
In order to prevent others from eavesdropping on his crucial information, he chose to dial the headquarters' Den Den Mushi, which had a white Den Den Mushi that was protected from eavesdropping.
"I see. Whitebeard's death declaration will inevitably cause more pirates to flock to the sea, and this is also an opportunity for us to expand."
"No, Long, there is much more to the Battle of Marineford than what happened here. The Navy has not exposed it yet, but on the battlefield, my people saw Zephyr die."
