A few days later, somewhere in the waters of East Blue.
A huge three-decker battleship was being pulled forward quickly by a sea cow.
Basire and Kuro had finished their training for the day, lying on the sun loungers and reading various articles in the newspapers.
[After the Krieg Pirates, the overlord of East Blue, the Big Daddy Pirates once again destroyed another powerful group, the Arlong Pirates with the highest bounty in East Blue!]
[Bad news! The Big Daddy Pirates destroyed the 16th branch warship of East Blue for no reason, and Captain Nezumi died unfortunately!]
[The bounties for all members of the Big Daddy Pirates have been increased again, and they have become the strongest pirate group in East Blue!]
[The most beautiful country in the East Blue, the Kingdom of Goa, the eldest princess Sally Nandkanet became engaged to Staley, the son of the great nobleman Otluk III, and will get married the following year!]
[Mirabal Island, the birthplace of East Blue pop, the annual dance conference will start in ten days. Everyone is welcome to attend!]
[Loguetown's annual cooking competition will begin in a week, and the champion will be rewarded with an elephant tuna and one million Beris!]
[Special report: Zeff, the head chef of the sea restaurant Baratie, revealed that the sous chef of the sea restaurant has the title of the number one chef in East Blue!]
···
These are all news belonging to East Blue. Basire also looked at the world news in the World Economic News.
[Tatch, the captain of the fourth division of the Whitebeard Pirates, teamed up with the new captain of the second division, Fire Fist Ace, to defeat the Decalvan brothers in the New World and subdued them into becoming another Whitebeard-affiliated pirate group!]
[Supernova White knight Cavendish landed on the Sabaody Archipelago today with a bounty of 280 million!]
···
"Basire, we should be able to find a good chef here."
Kuro pointed to a cooking competition report on the news and said casually to Basire.
Everyone else was looking at their new bounty orders. Among them, Jango was watching the news about the dance competition with excitement, but he knew that it was impossible for the Big Daddy Pirates to go to Mirabell Island.
"Just back to Loguetown."
Basire glanced at the news and said calmly, but his tone seemed to be colder, which surprised Kuro.
However, he quickly remembered that Daddy Basire was from the underworld Barto Club in Loguetown. Thinking of this, Kuro showed a joking smile.
It seems that this captain left a bad memory in Loguetown.
"Captain Basire! Your bounty is already 30 million Beris!!"
Eldoraggo pulled out a bounty order and shouted, after the group destroyed the Arlong Pirates and Captain Nezumi, the Big Daddy Pirates' bounty increased again.
The reputation of the most evil pirate group in East Blue has spread!
The other crew members also rose to about one million to three million each.
After all, the act of killing Marines was too bad and must be severely punished.
Gin and Pearl have also been included in the bounty orders of the Big Daddy Pirates, but only the little cat Nami does not have a bounty order for the time being. This also made her breathe a sigh of relief. After all, she does not want to have people after her head yet, or ever if possible...
"Speed to Loguetown and get ready to enter the Grand Line!!"
Ignoring the small matter of the bounty, Basire continued his practice after reading the newspaper. This kind of notoriety should soon lead to an encirclement and suppression by the Marines, which also made his sense of crisis a little heavier.
But this feeling is very good. Only when a person is in a sense of crisis will he continue to squeeze his own potential and not dare to relax.
Seeing Basire practicing again, Zoro, who is also a devout follower of the grind, immediately entered the training mode.
His bounty was actually quite lower from Basire's, which greatly stimulated him.
However, his bounty is already close to the previous highest bounty in East Blue, and is currently as high as 19 million Beris.
Kuro and Eldoraggo each also increased by one million Beris, reaching 18 million Beris.
And Gin actually increased by three million, reaching 15 million Beris.
The other crew members' bounties also increased by one million, with almost the same increase.
···
Less than half a day later.
A strange island towering like clouds has entered the sight of the Big Daddy Pirates.
"Clockwork Island, I heard that the Trump Pirates are stationed there, and they have a pirate fleet under their command, with no less than ten pirate ships!"
"Their Captain, Bear King, has a bounty of 11.6 million Beris."
"His strongest crew member, Pin Joker, with a bounty of 9.9 million Beris."
"Honey Queen, with a bounty of 7.8 million Beris."
"Skunk One, with a bounty of 6 million Beris."
"Boo Jack, with a bounty of 3.2 million Beris."
Kuro just glanced at it and read out all the information about this pirate group. He is indeed worthy of being in charge of intelligence gathering in the Big Daddy Pirates.
"Then they are our next target."
Basire continued to hold the dumbbells without any change in tone, as if this kind of thing couldn't attract his attention at all.
"Okay, okay! In fact, I have already set my sights on the famous 'Diamond Clock' on Clockwork Island. If I hadn't been outnumbered, I would have succeeded!"
The thief cat Nami immediately said excitedly and she didn't feel any guilt at all about robbing and stealing pirates' things.
"Do it, do it!"
Seeing that Basire was still exercising and had no intention of taking action, Eldoraggo immediately excitedly wanted to take over the command and recall what it was like to be a captain.
"Hey! Fourth in command, I, the second in command, haven't spoken yet!"
Zoro immediately put down his huge dumbbells, wiped his sweat, and walked to the bow.
If there was a fight, how could they leave him out!
Gin, Pearl, and Golass also picked up their weapons and looked at the location of Clockwork Island one by one.
Now they are the strongest pirate group in East Blue, so who do they need to be afraid of?
Especially the Nyaban brothers, they love to act all bossy and majestic, and they are proud to be part of the Big Daddy Pirates.
There was no trace of the trembling appearance they had when they attacked the Krieg Pirates that day.
"Then it's up to you to deal with them."
Kuro had no intention of taking action and left the important task of attacking Clockwork Island to the two cadres Zoro and Eldoraggo.
According to the bounty comparison, it must be the crew of the Big Daddy Pirates who completely crushed the Trump Pirates.
But there are many hidden weapons on Clockwork Island. He just hopes these stupid guys won't suffer a big loss…
Under the orders of Zoro and Eldoraggo, the sea beast Momoo accelerated as fast as possible to land on Clockwork Island in the shortest possible time.
On the other side, on the top floor of Clockwork Island, the lookout of the Trump Pirates had discovered the intruder. When he saw the flag of the Big Daddy Pirates, he was so frightened that he quickly sounded the alarm and ran away in panic to report to Captain Bear King.
This is the arrival of the strongest pirate group in East Blue!
If there were other small pirate groups, he would sound the attack horn and take the initiative to destroy them.
But the Big Daddy Pirates, which have been the most popular recently, are so fierce that he can't even think about resistance at all!
