Chapter 36 You can't
"Have you seen the agent I sent? That is an agent specially selected by miss. Double Finger. Miss. Double Finger said she is the most beautiful female agent this year!"
"..."
What does this guy mean?
No, when did my image in the sea become what it is now?
Nami sees him like this, Kuzan sees him like this, and now even his partner Crocodile sees him like this?
"Oh, what a degenerate naval captain." He was looking at Xi Kuzan and looked at Xia Che with schadenfreude, "No wonder he has been hiding in the East China Sea~"
"..." Xia Che ignored Kuzan who was watching the excitement, stared at the sight, gritted his teeth, took the phone and said, "I saw it, I saw it!" He said haha, "By the way, what do you want from me? Nothing? If nothing happens, I’ll hang up!”
"The agent didn't say anything?" After hearing Xia Che's words, Crocodile Telephone Bug frowned, and then snorted coldly, "What a stupid agent, anyway."
The phone bug holding a cigar in his mouth seemed to take a puff of smoke, with a serious expression on his face.
"I do need your help with something this time!"
"Please say!"
"Baroque Working Group has obtained information that the son of the devil - Nico Robin is hiding in the East China Sea. I need you to help me find her and bring her to the Kingdom of Alabasta!"
As Crocodile's voice fell.
"..."
Everyone immediately narrowed their eyes, even Kuzan looked at the phone bug.
He didn't seem to have expected that the target of His Majesty Shichibukai Crocodile would actually be the devil's son of the World Government?
As Nico Robin, who can interpret historical texts, the pirates are looking for her for only one reason.
Is that guy also interested in so-called historical texts?
Kuzan raised his head and looked at Xia Che expressionlessly, [What will you choose? 】
How to choose?
Xia Che also narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said with a surprised look, "The devil's son is in the East China Sea. Is your news reliable? Brother Crocodile~"
"I don't know yet, but Baroque Works did receive news that the Devil's Son fled to the East China Sea, so I hope you can help me find her. After all, as a captain of the East China Sea Navy, it is more convenient for you to be in the East China Sea." Kroc Dahl's phone bug said with a serious expression, "If you find it, I won't treat you badly!"
"Hey, I'm..."
"One hundred million, I can give you a better price than the World Government!" Before Xia Che could finish speaking, Crocodile seemed to have guessed what Xia Che wanted to say, and without hesitation he offered the price. "As long as you can give her to me!"
The words fell.
"..."
Xia Che did not answer him immediately, but narrowed his eyes again.
And at this moment.
After hearing Crocodile's words, the entire hall fell silent again. Everyone lowered their heads and looked at Xia Che, who was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed and not looking like a naval justice.
How would you choose?
Even Kuzan, who was originally lazy, sat up at this time, with his hands crossed in front of his chin and resting on his knees. There was no other expression on his face. He glanced at the man with a faint smile. Schach's Robin.
[Nicole Robin, did you make the right choice this time? 】
But not only Robin, but Nami on the side curled her lips when she heard one hundred million, "It's just a hundred million..."
Although there are many, who are you looking down on?
Wouldn't it be enough to just let Mork make another trip?
And they still have gold mines to dig!
Just.
Seeing Xia Che who didn't reject Crocodile immediately, Nami glanced at Robin and then at Xia Che. Although she knew that Xia Che didn't really care about the 100 million, she still opened her mouth anxiously. , "Xia Che..."
The words are not finished yet.
But he was directly grabbed by Robin.
Robin shook his head at Nami, then looked at Xia Che with a smile, "I believe him!"
She had entrusted herself to him.
Now that you have made your choice, how can you doubt your boss again?
At this time.
Xia Che, who narrowed his eyes slightly, finally spoke. He lay leisurely on the sofa, swung his legs and said with a smile, "Of course I helped, brother! But..."
Before the phone bug could show a satisfied smile.
"I want 500 million! After all, the East China Sea is very big. It is not easy to find a hidden person. My men also need to eat, and for me as a navy, this is... It’s very dangerous. If the world government finds out, I will be in trouble.”
"..." Faced with Xia Che's price increase, Crocodile fell silent, and then seemed to endure the anger in his heart, "Five hundred million, you know you..."
only.
The words are not finished yet.
"Krokdal, you don't want your search for the Devil's Son to be heard by the Navy Headquarters!"
As Xia Che finished these words, Crocodile's phone bug fell silent again.
"Three hundred million! It can't be more! You should know that the Navy Headquarters will not tolerate a naval colonel who keeps pirates in captivity!" Crocodile Phone Bug said expressionlessly, "And I haven't seen it yet. Son of the devil!"
"Okay! For your sake, brother Crocodile~" Xia Che, who called him again, laughed and said, "Can I just send the money over first?"
"Got it!" As if he couldn't stand the reality of this corrupted naval captain, Crocodile snorted coldly, "I hope you find it as soon as possible, otherwise..."
The words are not finished yet.
Then he hung up the phone bug directly.
"Dududu~"
"..."
Xia Che still squinted at the phone bug in his hand, then, ignoring Kuzan who looked at him with a meaningful smile, he raised his head directly, turned to look at Robin beside him, and sighed, "It seems that I want to There are many people who want to take you away!”
The words fell.
Robin on the side also had a smile on his face, as if he didn't care at all about what Xia Che said just now. He smiled gracefully and winked playfully, "Then BOSS must keep an eye on me~" "..."
It’s only been one night, is the secretary getting better?
Xia Che smiled and nodded, then turned to look at Weiwei in front of him, “Now let’s talk about what Alabasta can give me. "
…
at the same time.
"..."
Crocodile, who also hung up the phone, looked at the phone bug in his hand with a livid face. With a gloomy tone, he muttered to himself in the dark office, "Dander Shache..."
"Do you need me to deal with that colonel personally?" Hearing the meaningful words of his boss, beside him was a strong man with a white crew cut and black skin, an agent of Baroque Works, code-named Mr. 1, named Daz Bones. With a serious expression, "I will let him complete the BOSS mission honestly!"
"No need! He's just a corrupted naval colonel." Crocodile shook his head, holding his cigar in his left hand and knocking on the table with his right hand. "It won't be too late to deal with him when he finds the person I want."
A genius colonel who was transferred from the Navy Headquarters?
Ridiculous, how could a guy who has stayed in the weakest sea for so many years, colluded with pirates, made money in the East China Sea, played with female pirates, and had no achievements at all, still be a genius?
Although he also escaped from the New World to the Great Channel, he has not fallen. He has been looking for ways to re-enter the New World, preparing to avenge his shame!
And now...
He has also found a way.
If he hadn't seen that he still had some strength and wanted to turn that guy into his spy in the navy, as a great pirate, he wouldn't have paid attention to such disgusting things.
Crocodile thought of the guy he met for the first time. He was really surprised by his strange swordsmanship at that time. However, the dignified naval colonel was secretive to the woman next to him. When he asked, he deliberately changed the subject, even if he didn't look at him more. Not even an eye would refuse.
And that daughter... Although the guy didn't say it, the smell exuding from that woman was not something the navy would have.
The smell of criminals was too familiar to him.
He was just a degenerate naval captain who was sent to the East China Sea, played with pirate women, and was greedy for money and lust.
But if this were not the case, how could he bribe him?
This is also the reason why I haven't asked this guy for debt for so many years.
A useful idiot!
Crocodile smiled disdainfully, raised his head again, looked at Daz Bones beside him, and flicked the ashes of his cigarette, "I'll leave Baroque Works to you for the time being. Don't let others discover my identity. In addition, send the money as soon as possible, otherwise, the money-grubbing navy will not work for me. As for the female agent, I guess... she will not be able to come back! "
…
the other side.
"I……"
After hearing what Colonel Xia Che said, Princess Weiwei suddenly felt happy, but then she frowned again before she could speak.
"According to your introduction just now, the Kingdom of Alabasta seems to be one of the largest countries in the Great Channel." After hearing Xia Che's decision, Nami was a little worried, but she could only accept it.
Next…
The negotiation would have to be left to her.
Nami's eyes exuded a familiar light, with a professional smile on her lips, "How about one billion? As a way to save a country, this price is not expensive~"
only.
Faced with Nami's conditions, the originally happy Weiwei's face fell.
Seeing Weiwei's appearance, she couldn't tell that Nami had always been dealing with money. She looked at Weiwei suspiciously and said, "A country with a great waterway, a mere one billion..."
"The current Kingdom of Alabasta really cannot afford it. The Kingdom of Alabasta was once a prosperous and lively country. However, due to weather conditions in recent years, not only has the domestic income decreased, but riots have also occurred among the people. Now Alabasta There is frequent chaos in the Kingdom of Stan. There is not much money left in the country that has suffered disasters, and for the sake of the people, most of the money has to be used to subsidize everyone. "
A wry smile appeared on Weiwei's face, "So, although I also hope that you can help the Kingdom of Alabasta, the Kingdom of Alabasta cannot afford one billion now!"
"Is it so bad?" After hearing Princess Weiwei's words, Nami also scratched her head with a headache.
Of course, Princess Weiwei did not hide anything from them, and Nami also recognized her in her heart. Especially when she heard that the princess of a big country actually infiltrated into a criminal organization in order to save her country, she couldn't help but think of her own past.
After sighing inwardly, he glanced at Xia Che next to him, and looked at Weiwei helplessly, "Are you going to do it for free? Is there nothing good in Alabasta? Why don't you tell me? "
"I..." Weiwei raised her head and looked at everyone in front of her. Finally, she looked at the woman sitting next to Colonel Xia Che. She seemed to have thought of something, and there was a trace of hesitation on her face, but she also thought of the Kingdom of Alabasta. The current situation, as well as the hidden citizens and the terrifying King Shichibukai, immediately gritted his teeth and said as if he had made up his mind, "I can hand over to you the most beautiful national treasure of the Kingdom of Alabasta!"
"The national treasure of the Kingdom of Alabasta?" Nami immediately became interested after hearing this, "Sure enough, how can a big country not have a treasure? What is it?"
The words just fell.
Weiwei, who was wrapped in a blanket, stood up and lifted the blanket. She gritted her teeth and said, "Me! As long as you can save the Kingdom of Alabasta, I can..."
However.
The words are not finished yet.
"You can't! Just give me credit! I'll pay it back when Alabasta has the money!" Nami interrupted Weiwei without hesitation with a dark look on her face, then turned her head and glared at Xia Che, "Let's see what you do Good thing!”
"Oh, he is indeed a corrupted naval captain!"
"Senior Brother Xia Che, dada~"
"BOSS, haha~"
"..."
I haven't done anything!
And there’s nothing to see!
Inside the blanket... there is nothing but a piece of clothing with black and white circles. What's so good about this kind of strange clothing? It's better to look at his secretary's uniform!
"That's it!" Xia Che pretended twice and stood up expressionlessly, as if nothing happened just now. He stretched out leisurely and ignored Kuzan who was looking at him lazily. , lowered his head and looked at Robin who was looking at him with a smile, shook the black fur coat on his body, and said with the momentum of a naval colonel, "Tell Lao Mo, it's time to live again!"
