Chapter 104 Taking Over Baroque Works
Chapter 104 Taking Over Baroque Works
The Rain Banquet Casino, which had been cleared out.
"Heh heh, it seems being a behind-the-scenes boss has its risks; you can easily be replaced."
"Old Sha, I'm taking over your Baroque Works."
"Thank you for your contribution!"
Luo Ji sat in the boss's chair, slowly turning around, stroking a sand raccoon covered in demonic patterns in his arms.
From now on, he will be the new boss and Mr. 0 of Baroque Works.
In any case, none of Baroque Works' subordinates knew Mr. 0's true identity.
Even MR1, the number one assassin, didn't know about it.
With Nicole Robin as the vice president, Luo Ji could take over this criminal organization without anyone noticing.
As for Crocodile's plan to seize power, that can also be terminated.
However, Luo Ji helped Alabasta by dealing with the Sand Crocodile.
That King Cobra deserves some reward.
"Humph!!"
Crocodile, wearing a seastone collar and handcuffs, sat sullenly against the wall.
More than a decade of planning was lost in a single day.
This was something he found hard to accept.
All his power was merely a dowry for Luo Ji.
Furthermore, Nicole Robin's defection to the enemy was so smooth, and Luo Ji accepted this devil's son so quickly.
"Captain Luo Ji, the affairs of Baroque Workshop have been arranged, and everything is proceeding as usual."
Investments in the Alabasta royal family will be gradually terminated.
Nicole Robin has assigned tasks to all officers and centurions.
According to Luo Ji, he should continue to conceal his identity, just like Crocodile.
After all, Luo Ji's identity is in great danger right now.
If the Baroque Works executives knew that their boss was a notorious pirate like Luo Ji, who was being targeted by the World Government, probably more than half of them would leave Baroque Works.
After all, many members are still very afraid of the World Government.
“Then let’s set off for Albana and get our hands on the historical texts in Cobra’s possession.”
Luo Ji took away most of the funds from the Rain Banquet Casino without any hesitation.
Only at Robin's request was a portion of the working capital left behind.
After all, supporting so many people in the Baroques organization requires paying their salaries.
However, the Baroque cadres were quite good at making money, and the bulk of their expenditures went to supporting the war against the Alabasta rebels, as well as to the commanders of tens of thousands and thousands.
Now that Luo Ji has abandoned this plan to seize power, it can save Baroque Studio a lot of money.
Under Luo Ji's coercion and enticement, the person in charge of Rain Banquet Casino continued to serve Baroque Works, becoming one of the intermediaries through which Nico Robin controlled Baroque Works.
For the safety of Rain City and Rain Banquet Casino.
Nico Robin, in her capacity as vice president, transferred Mr. 1 Daz Bones and Miss Twofinger Bora back to Rainbow Casino to become guardians.
With these two executives around, even without Crocodile and Nico Robin, they should be able to protect the Rain Banquet Casino and maintain the operation of the entire Baroque Works.
Although Baroque Works is not very powerful, it can control most of the intelligence in the early part of the Grand Line.
When all the supernovas enter the Grand Line, none of them will escape the detection of Baroque Works.
Moreover, Baroque Works has many people with special abilities, which can lead to unexpected and miraculous effects.
MR3 and MR5 were able to outmaneuver and defeat the Blue Demon Dorry and the Red Demon Brogy.
The leaders of these two giant pirate crews already had bounties of over 100 million a hundred years ago, and after the Battle of Egghead Island, their bounties skyrocketed to 18 billion Berries.
This is absolutely outrageous.
It turns out that Mr. 3 is also a first mate, after all, his candle ability can trap two giant ship captains.
···
After Nicole Robin recalled some of the centurions and restored order to the Rain Banquet Casino.
Ark Proverbs has left Rain City.
However, news of the Luo Ji Pirates appearing in Alabasta and defeating Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, has already spread like wildfire.
Another Shichibukai has been captured by Luo Ji.
When Sengoku the Buddha of the Marine Headquarters received this news, his face turned ashen.
In just a few short months, Hanafza was defeated, and the World Government has just found a tyrant named Kuma to take his place.
As a result, Crocodile, the veteran Shichibukai, was defeated once again.
Does this mean the Seven Warlords of the Sea can't be at full strength?
The reappearance of the Luo Ji Pirates once again shocked the world.
Given the current strength of the Luo Ji Pirates, a single Shichibukai is no match for them.
Even Hawkeye Mihawk, the strongest of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, probably couldn't handle the Luo Ji Pirates.
Luo Ji's scroll ability allows for endless attrition from a distance, while Yamato's Overlord's combat power can deliver a fatal blow to most powerful opponents.
Hawkeye Mihawk is very strong in one-on-one combat, but that doesn't necessarily mean he can defeat the Luo Ji Pirates.
After all, Luo Ji is a cunning guy, and he'll definitely find a way to wear down Hawkeye Mihawk.
···
The situation in the New World is currently very chaotic. The Navy is too busy to pursue the Luo Ji Pirates and has recalled most of its high-level combat forces to guard the New World.
Seeing that the Beasts Pirates and the Big Mom Pirates had both mobilized, the Five Elders had no choice but to have the Marine Headquarters deal with these powerful pirates with all its might.
They then personally confronted Luo Ji, who possessed the blueprints for Hades.
Massan has led a group of God Knights with the ability to fly and CP0 members to leave the Holy Land of Mary Geoise discreetly and pursue the Luo Ji Pirates with all their might.
Upon hearing that the Luo Ji Pirates had appeared in Alabasta, they immediately rushed to Alabasta from the Water 7 waters.
If they catch up with them, it will be the end for the Luo Ji Pirates.
Even with airships, they couldn't be saved.
···
Over Alabasta.
The Ark Maxims, Part 1.
Luo Ji was unaware that the Five Elders had personally come to capture him.
He threw Crocodile, the prisoner, into a seastone cage on the deck.
"Hanafza, I've found you an old friend to be your cellmate."
Luo Ji smiled wickedly and even arranged for Crocodile to sit next to Hanafza, so that the two Shichibukai could have a proper reunion.
Hanafza raised an eyebrow; he hadn't miscalculated. The sand crocodile had indeed fallen into the hands of the Luo Ji Pirates.
That means the historical text containing information about the whereabouts of Pluto, the god of the underworld, is about to fall into Luo Ji's hands.
At that time, the Hades blueprints and Hades Pluto will both belong to Luo Ji.
Perhaps the Luo Ji Pirates can truly grow into a behemoth capable of rivaling the World Government.
Crocodile glanced at Hanafza, then looked at the other two strangers in the cages.
The person who could be imprisoned by Luo Ji must be no ordinary person.
"What are you looking at? I'll strike you dead with a bolt of lightning!"
Enel looked at Crocodile's dead fish eyes, the same gaze, the same arrogant air, which made him very unhappy.
"Who do you think you are! Believe me or not, I'll turn you into a dried-up corpse!"
Crocodile gave the arrogant long-eared monster a cold look, daring to speak to him like that.
"Oh, one is a Logia-type Sand-Sand Fruit user, and the other is a Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit user."
"Tell me, who's stronger? Thor, or the King of the Desert?"
Luo Ji sat on the Thunder Somersault Cloud, stroking the Sand Badger Shouhe with a smile on his face.
Once his scroll combat space is fully developed, he can let them fight.
Or let Yamato fight them.
