The Big Daddy Pirates descended directly on Punk Hazard to find the secret base where Caesar Clown was located.
"Wiiihahaha~!! Now that I have the flare fruit ability I can also fly!!"
Burgess, whose legs had turned into flames, jumped off the Ark Maxim. The spurting flames gave him the ability to fly briefly.
"That guy is so annoying!"
Some crew officers said a little sourly, after all this is a powerful Logia Devil Fruit ability, and it was actually given to this fool by Captain Basire!
"Captain, when are you going to help me get a Devil Fruit?"
Catarina Devon asked the young, handsome and powerful captain a little flatteringly. Now she is standing in the first and second echelons. She is the only one who does not have the Devil Fruit ability.
Basire has now decided on the title of Imperial Shichibukai as the first combat echelon in the Big Daddy Pirates, in line with the World Government Shichibukai system.
Not to the surprise of others, the former Shichibukai received this title of senior cadre one by one.
[Pirate Empress] Boa Hancock, [Sand Crocodile] Crocodile, [Shadow Mage] Gecko Moria, [Whitebeard II] Edward Weevil, [Diamond Swordsman] Shiryu of the Rain.
Now these five seats have been decided for the time being, and the remaining two seats are left to other cadres to compete for them.
For this reason, Zoro, Burgess, Vasco Shot, Catarina Devon... these guys all want to snatch these two positions.
However, Basire also announced the formation of ten direct personal guards, giving them the title of Imperial Fists, and crew members who want to establish their own divisions can compete for spots in the Gotei 13 division.
Of course, there may be more than thirteen divisions, maybe sixteen or eighteen divisions.
The Imperial Shichibukai rise to the top due to their strength. They are the first echelon of combat and are also responsible for conquering the sea. The Imperial Fists basically stay on the main ship of the Big Daddy Pirates. These cadres must possess various functional devil fruit abilities.
The Gotei 13 will often go out to conquer territory and patrol the territory. As for guarding the territory, they may have to leave it to the affiliated pirate groups and squad leaders at all levels.
The day Basire left Marineford, he had already decided on the structure of the Big Daddy Pirates.
These cadres and subordinates have no other opinions.
The women of Basire, under the leadership of Nami and Nico Robin, must also create the Queen Management Team of the Big Daddy Pirates, control the logistics of the crew, and assist Basire in managing everyone.
They also wanted to bring Boa Hancock into this group, but the Pirate Empress preferred to conquer the territory of the Whitebeard Pirates for Basire and did not want to do such trivial matters as logistics for the time being, so she rejected them.
Moreover, Hancock also has her own pride. As a user of Conqueror's Haki, she disdains teamwork. She also wants to dominate Basire alone, but this is impossible. She can only gain more by following him in continuous battles, getting more opportunities to get along.
In her eyes, only strength can impress Basire and let her occupy the most important position in his heart.

Under the fierce search by the Big Daddy Pirates, Caesar Clown was completely panicked.
"Are they looking for me!?"
He was so anxious that his body turned into gas, twisting and turning. Even the World Government and Marines didn't know that he was in Punk Hazard. Why did the Big Daddy Pirates know about him?
"It must be a coincidence!"
He said pretending to be calm, but when he saw the Big Daddy Pirates getting closer and closer to his secret base on the surveillance screen, the cold sweat on his face was falling like a waterfall.
At this moment, his den den mushi rang.
"Doflamingo, you finally called me back. The Big Daddy Pirates appeared in Punk Hazard and seem to be looking for our base. Come and save me!"
Caesar answered the call and started yelling, his tone full of panic. A quasi-Yonkō pirate group had landed on his territory, which made him, a non-combat scientist, panic.
"What?!!"
"They are so fast?!!"
Doflamingo said in shock that he had just successfully applied to enter the Holy Land Mary Geoise, and he had to pass the Red Line from here to return to the New World.
"You leave immediately through the underground port and return only after the Big Daddy Pirates have left!"
"Those experimental bases might be important, but you can't fall into Basire's hands!"
Doflamingo's head was full of veins, that bastard Basire really knows his secrets, the toy fruit ability of Sugar, and the artificial devil fruit ingredients that Caesar creates, Basire knows everything.
He thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, and dialed the exclusive number of the Big Daddy Pirates.
More than a year ago, as a newcomer, the Big Daddy Pirates took the initiative to seek cooperation with him, the underworld intermediary Emperor, but soon after, Basire became a Shichibukai and began to threaten him.
Basire now killed Whitebeard in one fell swoop, seized the Tremor Fruit ability, and became a quasi-Yonkō, with a status that can almost crush Doflamingo, which makes him very unhappy, but also extremely fearful.
But for Caesar, for the artificial devil fruits, and for the business with Kaido, even if he bleeds heavily this time, he must make a deal with the bastard Basire and save Caesar, the important scientist.
Basire was looking for Caesar's secret base when the den den mushi in his pocket rang.
Not many people know this number, and everyone who has it is a big shot.
Top figures such as Revolutionary Army leader Dragon, Big News Morgans, and Marine Fleet Admiral Buddha Sengoku.
"Fufufufu~, congratulations to Basire, the future Yonkō!"
Doflamingo's voice came out of the snail, and there was a bit of flattery in his tone, but he didn't know whether it was true or not.
"Stop talking nonsense, Mingo, I have no time to talk to you."
Basire said calmly, and at this time, the crew members of the Big Daddy Pirates discovered the red dragon and rushed over excitedly.
Whether you kill it to gain the title of Dragon Slayer or subdue it, both are good choices.
"I want you to let Punk Hazard go, and I'll give you a big gift. Didn't you say you liked maids before? I do have a very obedient battle maid, I think you will like her."
In order to keep Punk Hazard's research base and Caesar, Doflamingo directly sold the battle maid he had raised for more than ten years, the weapon fruit user Baby5.
"This is not enough! She is not as valuable as Caesar Clown."
Basire chuckled and said casually, now his appetite is much bigger than before, this small profit is not enough to feed him.
