East Blue was the weakest sea in the eyes of the world, and West Blue...
At least in the eyes of Giotto, it was not impossible to call this sea the strongest.
Why did he say that?
This was based on the overall powerhouses that came out of the Four Seas. Since Roger was sentenced in East Blue, there was barely any strong figure emerging from East Blue.
In addition, Garp always went home to visit his relatives, which indirectly led to the future Krieg, who became the most famous pirate in East Blue with only a bounty of 17 million. Fish-Man Arlong could also somehow become one of the scariest forces there, how tragic!
Then there was the South Blue. There were almost no legendary figures from there, their strength was relatively average.
In the future, Eustass Kid, who had the highest bounty among the Worst Generation, was also a pirate who came from South Blue.
As for the North Blue, the situation was similar to the South Blue, but the North Blue now had two most powerful forces, namely the Germa Kingdom and the DonQuixote family.
These two forces were enough to raise the average level of the North Sea by a lot. In addition to these two forces, the other ordinary pirates also had a decent bounty on their heads. Three of the future Worst Generation also came from the North Sea.
The last one was the West Sea which Giotto thought was the strongest. When mentioning this area of the sea, he only needed to pay attention to three things.
The first one was the Flower Kingdom, a country with strong naval forces, the pillar of their Happo Navy was a famous pirate with a bounty of 500 million, Don Chinjao. Unfortunately, the iron head that he was so proud of was bent by Garp.
The second force was the Five Families of the West. In fact, it was the five big mafia groups that controlled the Underground operations in West Blue. It was Capone "Gang" Bege that single-handedly united the Underground operations of West Blue. He eventually grew bored of his dominance and established Fire Tank Pirates and sailed to Grand Line as a pirate.
And he went out to sea to become one of the eleven super rookies in the future!
However, if they were to talk about the mafia now, many people would no longer care about the so-called Five Families of the West. Instead, they would pay attention to Vongola Family that stood in the New World!
As for the third force, it was related to Giotto's old acquaintance. After all, the future leader of this force was called Red-haired Shanks, one of the Four Emperors of the Sea!
Of course, because of the appearance of Giotto and Vongola Family, there was no telling whether there would still be Four Emperors in the future, but regardless, Shanks was not a person who was willing to remain an ordinary pirate!
West Sea, Kano Country.
In a bar, Giotto was quietly enjoying afternoon tea by the window. At the same time, he was waiting.
Not long after, a man in Varia's uniform quickly walked into the tavern. He stood by the table and bowed slightly to Giotto. He did not sit down.
He knew that such a well-mannered guy was either taught by Xanxus or Colonello.
Then, the man placed a piece of information in front of Giotto and said, "Boss, this is intel about 'knowledge'. We have been paying attention to her since the previous mission. However, her current situation is not good. If there are no accidents, the gang organization that took him in is ready to exchange for the reward."
The "knowledge" was actually intel about Nico Robin.
The reason why he gave her such a code name was because her hometown, Ohara, once had the most scholars in the world and the library with the most books - the Tree of Knowledge.
Robin, on the other hand, aced an archaeology exam at the age of eight and became an archaeologist with full marks.
Now, Ohara had long been submerged to the depths of the sea in the flames of Buster Call, and Robin was the inheritor of the knowledge there.
"A gang organization? Is it one of the five big families in the west?" Giotto looked at the information in his hand and asked at the same time.
"No, it's just a small unknown family. She doesn't dare to go to the Five Families of the West to survive." The member of Varia immediately replied.
Even the Five Families of the West were not a problem. For Giotto, it was just a little troublesome. The mafia in the West Blue was completely incomparable to Vongola Family!
"Oh right, does Varia have any news about Mihawk? That guy is also one of my objectives this time. Of course, it is best to have news about him. If not, there is no need to worry about it."
Giotto stuffed the intel about Robin into his pocket. He also asked.
If he could recruit Mihawk as External Advisors, then this trip would be really worthwhile. Not to mention that Mihawk would be the world's number one swordsman in the future, his current strength was not weak in the sea.
"Ah, this just so happens to be news about him."
The member of Varia immediately replied, "Because he is quite famous in the sea, he happened to be in the West Sea recently, so we also paid some attention to him. If nothing goes wrong, he should be fighting a red-haired man on a small island in the southwest. The two of them have already fought several times in a row."
As he spoke, he also placed a map of the West Sea in front of Giotto. At the same time, he marked out the location of Robin and Mihawk.
If he was valued by his boss, wouldn't it be simple to get promoted and marry a rich and beautiful woman?
Red hair...
When he heard these words, Giotto already knew the specific situation. The red-haired man who was fighting with Hawk-Eye could only be his old acquaintance, Shanks, right?
Robin was not far from where Mihawk was, and Giotto was thinking about which one should he pay a visit first.
"Let's go rescue Robin first. Anyway, with Shanks' personality, the two of them will have to hold a banquet for a period of time after sparring. After that, they will have to rest for a few days after getting drunk. They won't leave that island soon."
Giotto didn't know too much about Shanks.
However, there was no need to worry about Robin. After all, that little girl was shrewd. She should've already found out about the gang wanting to exchange her for a sum of money long ago...
