One Piece’S Scarlet Swordsman

In the meeting room, the three of Aethas sat in distress, listening to Gurant's instructions.

"Guy, Luo, I will notify you when I arrive at The fish men island."

"You two will take someone to the entrance of New World, ready to meet me at any time."

"When you reach the entrance of New World, I will take the mermaid princess out of The fish men island."

"in addition."

"Whether it is on the way to sail or when the entrance is blocked, if the Marine fleet finds you..."

"Sink it as fast as possible. As long as it's on a Marine ship, no fly can be let go."

"Marine is not given the opportunity to contact the headquarters, and priority is given to destroying the communication equipment on the warship when the war starts."

"Understood, you can leave."

After Gurant's voice fell, the three of them got up, Aethas clenched his right hand to beat his chest, bowed to Gurant, turned and left slowly.

It wasn't until ten minutes after the three of them left that Gurant got up slowly. Because his back was always facing the sun, his front part was always covered by shadows, and his face was covered with darkness. No one could see clearly except for the four closest people. .

Just getting up at this time, people gradually see his dress.

Shoujun Wenming stick, foot-deng bright leather shoes, straight suit, black top hat with white feathers, single-sided glasses, gray sideburns, white beard that has been carefully repaired, from the earlobe to the chin.

He looks like a middle-aged gentleman with a decent dress and a very high level of self-cultivation.

"Although there is still a lot to do."

Gulant carried the civilization stick and walked outside the door, the crisp sound of footsteps echoing in the quiet corridor.

"However, let's get Pluton and Poseidon first."

At seven o'clock in the morning, Gulant boarded a merchant ship heading for the first half of the Grand Line at the port of Thalia.

After Gurant used a large amount of Bailey as the ship's fee, the captain happily shook hands with him, saying that he was a very reasonable person.

"Howard, don't worry, you will be able to reach the first half safely."

Howard is his current name, from the time he went out to the dock.

Perhaps it was because Gurant was polite, courteous, and good-talking, so I chatted with him for a while until he was about to set sail in half an hour before separating from him.

Captain Palmer is a bearded old man about the same age as the current Grant, with a cigar and rosacea.

He wandered on the sea all the year round. Although he had a big belly, his body was still strong, only reaching the chest of Gurantt.

He is a shrewd and capable man.

Gulant stood on the deck, looking at the gradually blurred Thalia Island, with a plain expression.

The flag of the Scarlet Pirates Group was placed on the top of the ship to reduce unnecessary danger.

There are 135 people on the ship, of which more than 20 are crew members, and the others are mercenaries who protect the safety of the ship.

There are very few places to rest on the ship. Except for the captain’s separate room, more than one hundred people on board, including mercenaries, all rest in one cabin.

The ship was very lucky and only encountered the pirate group once on the way.

The Captain Palmer was also very clever, and he took down the banner of the Scarlet Pirates when he found out that he had left the area of ​​influence of the Scarlet Pirates.

He has the flags of various Four Emperors on board, and he has collected a lot of information about the pirate groups in New World. By observing the signs of the incoming pirate groups, he can determine which Four Emperors they belong to, and then set the flag of the Four Emperors. Hang on the top of the boat.

In order to avoid unnecessary battles and losses, if the opponent is a pirate group that has no power, raise the banner of the Whitebeard pirate group.

In this way, even if the other party does something, he still has to weigh it up, and he won't kill them all.

After sailing for about a month, I finally arrived at the Red Line at the entrance of New World.

Because it is an ordinary merchant ship, it does not need to pass through The fish men island, but directly through the upside-down mountain. When passing through the barriers set by the World government, it is necessary to pay amazing taxes and fees.

"These cannibal bastards are more Damn it than Pirates!"

Captain Palmer bowed and surrendered Bailey with a smile, but when he came back he cursed the opponent viciously.

"I wish you all will be killed by the Scarlet Pirates sooner or later."

The corner of Gurant's mouth was lightly raised. It seems that in the eyes of the public, the Scarlet Pirates and the World government are standing in absolute opposites.

Although many people are pirates, they are still just pirates. They dare not and do not have the strength to oppose the world government.

And some people, being pirates just want to find a place for themselves, just like Whitebeard and bigmom.

And some people become pirates purely because of destruction, just like people like [World Destroyer] Byrnndi World, [Beasts] Kaido.

These are all conventional pirates in people's eyes.

Only the Scarlet Pirate Group is unique. This Pirate Group seems to have been set up to oppose the World government.

Raid the Marine secret base, snatch Marine secret weapons, attack the World government, slaughter Celestial Dragons, and slaughter Marine.

Which is what a normal pirate should do?

Shouldn't normal pirates rob the masses of money, compete with the pirates for supplies, drift on the sea, and run directly when encountering Marine?

"Finally arrived in the first half, and now I feel much more relaxed."

After coming down from the upside-down mountain, Captain Palmer wiped the non-existent sweat on his head and let out a sigh of relief.

After hearing this, Gurant felt funny, walked over to him, and said with a chuckle.

"Aren't you afraid of pirates?"

"Although Grand Line is not as good as New World, there are many pirates."

Palmer laughed at the words, patted Gurant on the shoulder, and pointed at the strong men playing cards on the boat.

"Don't underestimate our mercenaries, these people all eat this bowl of rice."

"Except for those pirates over 50 million, ordinary pirates can all be dealt with."

"But how many pirates are there in the first half of the Grand Line?"

Gurant thought for a while, and felt right, even Bellamy's 50 million goods could run rampant in Mogu Town, and the first half was indeed a far cry from the second half.

The supernova with hundreds of millions of Baileys offering rewards is only one or two among the tens of thousands of pirates every year.

Only in the era of the protagonist, will a lot of them suddenly spring up like bamboo shoots after a rain.

That's why Kizaru said that they are all like monsters. The monsters here refer to supernovae in comparison with other eras.

Three days later, the merchant ship arrived at the first island in the first half, Ankuri Island, where Gulante was separated from the merchants.

"Next time I have a chance, I will let you board my boat."

Captain Palmer laughed and shook hands with Grant.

Immediately, Gurant bought a small dhow from an old man on this island for a million Baileys, with very simple internal facilities.

But as a temporary ship, it is enough.
