Chapter 896: How Did He Do It?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Sure enough, a few days later, Crowe presented Kuro with a telegram and a portrait and a photo of his back.
There was no photo, but it was drawn by a superb painter that the CP organization bought the person who appeared at the location of the Pirates at a high price.
According to others, the person involved hated taking photos, so no one took photos of him. The only photo left was a group photo on a pirate ship when he was young.
In that photo, there was a group of pirates laughing wantonly, but among those pirates, there was one person hiding in the crowd, with his back and his head slightly turned, only revealing a blonde hair and a side profile.
The person in the portrait was a young man with blond hair and blue eyes. He was not old and was wearing a luxurious captain’s uniform with a white scarf. His blond hair was combed back and there were a few strands on each side of his forehead. He looked quite imposing.
At this time, in the upper office of the Golden Lion, Kuro put down the photo in his hand and looked at the report. “This is very interesting…”
He tapped the page of the telegram with his finger and said, “At least there is evidence that he appeared in all three Pirates, all pointed out by the town residents who encountered those Pirates, but the name is different every time.”
“Yes, Mr. Kuro.”
Crowe, who was standing in front of him, pushed up his blind glasses and said, “The first pirate group he joined, which is the pirate in the photo, is the [Water Monster Pirates]. I heard of this pirate group in East Blue before. The bounty is not high, three million or four million, but it is a little famous. In the end, there was no information, and I thought he was eliminated by the sea. At that time, Sam William’s alias was Henry Morgan, a new pirate on that pirate ship.”
“The second pirate group with evidence is the [Cotton Jack] Pirates. They are not very famous. The only commendable thing is that he was allied with two other female pirate captains at that time. There is nothing else. Sam William’s alias in it is Bartholomew Roberts. Less than a year after he joined, the pirate group disappeared.”
“The third one is a little powerful, it is [Redbeard Pirates]…”
“I’ve heard of this before.” Kuro said, “He’s notorious. This pirate group can burn, kill, and rob anything, but this pirate group can run away. I’ve set my eyes on him twice, but I couldn’t find him. In the end, there was no news. I thought he had encountered a shipwreck or something. Now it seems that there is a problem.”
“Yes, Mr. Kuro, Sam William’s alias at that time was Lekham John. This is also his last alias. Since he joined this pirate group, Captain ‘Redbeard’ Barbarossa disappeared, and the next one born was Sam William. This name was used for five years, and it should be his real name.” Crowe said.
Kuro nodded. “That’s why this report is interesting. Look, as a pirate, he swallowed a lot of pirates, killed the Captain, and gathered their subordinates. At the same time, he accumulated a lot of reputation in those places that were ravaged by pirates. He founded a business group called [White Collar Band]. The subordinates in the business group are all civilians in the places that pirates ravaged.”
“Five years ago, Colonel Ferdinand, who used to be the Base Commander of East Blue 121 Division, suddenly died after this business group passed by.”
“Four years ago, a fire broke out in the home of Loxiel, a local tycoon on the island of Swifts Island, a partner of the White Collar Caravan. Loxiel himself died in the fire.”
“Three years ago, a great noble of the Babus Kingdom died, and the White Cloth Caravan also passed through it. Near the island where Sam William is located, it is this kingdom. After that, Sam William’s fame gradually rose in this kingdom, to the point of ‘great hero’. People no longer ask for the king’s protection, but turn to Sam William for protection.”
With that, Kuro touched his chin and muttered, “This gives me the feeling of that crocodile.”
However, this report was not so one-sided because Kurlo was looking for Rob Lucci. If it was any other CP organization, it might be enough to check here, but for someone like Lucci who prioritized his mission, checking intelligence must be comprehensive.
This gave Kuro a different feeling.
There is no need to say anything about the Pirates. There are always pirates in the sea. Kuro can only clap his hands and watch the show.
However, the matter of East Blue’s 121th Branch Base Chief Ferdinand is worth mentioning.
In the investigation, this guy is a pirate!
He sheltered a pirate group. In his jurisdiction, pirates wantonly robbed, but half of the money they robbed had to be handed over to Ferdinand. It was not that kind of transaction, but when pirates robbed, he would send soldiers to find pirates. Then the two sides ‘battle’ all the way to the sea. Finally, the pirate group abandoned the treasure and fled, while Ferdinand got the treasure and completed the duty of forcing the pirates to retreat.
This matter was only found out after his death. After all, the strange death of a colonel would naturally attract the attention of the Headquarters. After many investigations, the murderer was not found, but what this person did was found, but because the impact was too smelly and it was too embarrassing for Marine, this matter was concealed.
Rich man Loxiel. He has a title called “Pilgrim Ghost”. It means that no matter who passes by him, they will be skinned alive. He is the big landlord of the island of Swifts. The entire island is his. All the residents work for him, but he is so exploitative that the residents of the island of Swifts are not fed at all. They die in the fire when the whole island is celebrating.
The nobles of Babs were even more outrageous. They took whatever they wanted in their own territory, participated in slave-trading work, and casually increased taxes. In the end, they were killed on the way to refuge because of the failure of the struggle.
Those who died were all scum.
From that point of view, Sam William is doing okay, but from the way he moves behind…
“He has almost all the prestige, wealth, and power. Although it is only in one area, he has reached the peak in this area. The prestige of a pirate cannot be so high that the people of a kingdom love him, even to the point of madness. This is deliberately guided… Especially two years ago, the old king of the kingdom of Babs died and the new king was a young weak woman. From then on, his fame began to rise again.”
Kuro bit his cigar and blew out smoke. “This guy is going to subvert the kingdom. This guy is the type of person like Crocodile, with great ambition and good mobility, but it’s strange, why is he only confined to one area… Damn, how did this guy do it!”
His tone was a little sour.
He was even envious of this guy’s deeds!
How did this guy do it? He is so famous in a place, but he can still be a tyrant.
For Marines, having fame and strength is a steady promotion. For pirates, having fame and strength is a bounty!
But this guy has not had a bounty for so many years!
The pirates under him are also all whiteboard without a bounty.
In addition to the identity of a pirate, the life of this Sam William is simply the life of Kuro’s dream!
“I am not happy, I am very unhappy!”
Kuro’s face fell. He threw the report and said to Crowe, “Where is he now?”
Crowe shook his head. “We don’t know his exact whereabouts, but he should still be in East Blue.”
“Put out a bounty!”
Kuro gritted his teeth and said, “Notify the department and get me a bounty! How much is the bounty of the last pirate he killed?”
“Redbeard Barbarossa, eleven million,” Crowe said.
“Well… in addition to the fact that he killed so many pirates, the degree of danger is there, and he intends to subvert the country, give him 100 million!” Kuro shouted.
“Mr. Kuro, this is against the rules…”
Crowe pursed his lips and looked at Kuro, who had a jealous expression on his face, and reminded him, “This is East Blue…”
There are 100 million pirates in the New World… There are, but they are too rare.
When Crocodile debuted as a pirate, his first bounty was not 80 million, but after a few times, it became 81 million, which is already very fast.
Empress Hancock’s first bounty is only 80 million, which is all from Grand Line.
A pirate from East Blue… 100 million bounty for the first time is not in line with the rules.
Kuro also realized that this did not seem to conform to the rules. He thought for a moment and said, “Thirty million, the same amount as the first bounty of that Straw Hat. Let Headquarters study his deeds and give him a title.”
