Arceus's Pirate Journey
Chapter 167: I think there are traitors among us
The phone bug that took refuge in the beasts, that is, the ammonite worked very hard, but when it worked too hard, Quinn became a little unhappy.
The specific thing is this. After memorizing the number of the phone bug, in order to repay the favor of saving its life, it memorized two or three additional numbers based on the contact signal of the phone bug.
Telephone bugs are a huge group of snails. It is not surprising that they were related to each other in the past. After all, the same batch of phone bugs may be made from the same nest of snails.
It really doesn't know which phone number is more important, but it can understand human language, so it knows what honorifics are.
If you want to get information from your companions, you have to say good things to them, so the numbers it can memorize are limited.
In order to obtain more critical information, it specifically remembers those companions who often use honorifics.
The life of a phone bug is very pleasant. Except for those who need to work shifts to monitor the phone bugs, ordinary phone bugs spend most of their time resting when there is no phone.
Therefore, when the phone rings, no matter day or night, they can immediately convey the message. Phone bugs cannot write, and most of the time they can only relay the words of their companions, rather than record those words in their minds.
So when he receives the message, he will remind the people next to him to come over and record it. It is fine during the day and it just needs to bark as usual, but not at night.
So Quinn would often be woken up by the Ammonite Beast's water gun when he fell asleep.
On this peaceful night, he encountered the same thing as before. A stream of water sprayed towards his face, waking him up from his sleep.
"These bastards...can't they call during the day!"
In fact, it was indeed daytime, but it was Mariegio's daytime. Of course, officials contacted the outside world based on their own time. Even CP0 could not guarantee that it would only have tasks during the day, let alone eavesdropping like them.
"No, I have to find Brother Kaido to find someone who works the night shift, otherwise my hair will be unbearable."
After recording the information eavesdropped by the ammonite beast in a small notebook and looking at the moon in the night sky, Quinn decided that he needed an assistant.
"You are already bald, don't worry about the details."
"I shaved it off myself! You are just a snail, do you know how to appreciate the beauty of human beings? After all, can't you write down the message yourself?"
"I can't write, and I'm just repaying my benefactor." After saying that, he retracted into his shell. A necessary skill of the phone bug is to sleep with his eyes closed. Otherwise, it will be difficult for the phone bug to ensure that he is always energetic.
Although many of the eavesdropped messages were of no value to the beasts, they did contain information about them.
[Contact the Beast Pirates to get the trade price.]
However, because the death of CP0 was unclear, the people behind did not dare to enter Wano Country rashly, and mainly tried to communicate on the phone.
Although Kaido always answered the phone, he disagreed every time, giving the World Government a feeling that it could trade, but it could not meet the other party's psychological needs.
Even using a few animal-type Devil Fruits as equivalents failed to seal the deal, so the CP0 team was troubled. The three of them sat together and talked about the beasts.
"What does that guy want?"
"Forget it. There are enough things flowing out of the black market. It would be better to contact Kaido and find a few more businessmen in the underground world."
"Their goods still come from Kaido, and the authenticity is not guaranteed. If Kaido cuts off the supply of goods, there is nothing they can do. Can they only use that kind of stuff?"
It is very common in the black market for the Beast Pirates to collect slates, and the World Government does have them, but it is not convenient to use them directly as trading items.
"It's hard to handle. Although I don't have a clue, Vegapunk hasn't given up yet. As for the Draco collection..."
"Let's look at it again. That guy has done so much business that it's impossible to give up the profits he got. I'm afraid the price is not right yet, but I feel something is wrong.
Why do I feel like we have no secrets at all every time we talk, and he seems to know where our bottom line is?"
Every negotiation failed to achieve results, and what they could offer was always far from Kaido's psychological price. If the news hadn't come directly from the headquarters, he would have suspected that there was an undercover agent.
As for the anti-eavesdropping white phone bug, that kind of phone bug is so rare that not everyone can equip it. Only real top-secret missions will be equipped with that kind of phone bug.
Their qualifications for this task have not yet reached that level.
"What about those failed products from Punk Hassard? Isn't that guy Kaido recruiting people? He might be interested in those giants."
"Are you talking about those things that aim to resurrect ancient giants, but in the end they become neither humans nor ghosts, and can only scare people except for being edible?"
"It's a failure anyway. If it can be traded, it can be considered valuable."
That was Punk Hassad's experimental plan to create warriors from the ancient giant race, but they were not completely successful. The monsters they produced had low IQs and could hardly meet their needs.
In this world, just having a huge size is not enough. Many strong men have ways to deal with those giants. If you are not smart enough, you will be a living target on the battlefield.
Although the giants that were made were larger than the average giants, their intelligence was much lower, and their appetites were huge. Using them was far inferior to cultivating several giant lieutenants.
So it was deemed a failure and was frozen, but now it has been mentioned and planned to be recycled.
They will not trade truly useful weapons of war.
These are the Brutal Tyrants of the Beast Pirates in the original timeline, but apart from cleaning up miscellaneous soldiers and scaring people, they are basically useless.
"We can't make the final decision on those things. We have to report it to the superiors. Besides, Kaido's preferences are too strange. Hasn't there been any movement from the people sent to investigate?"
"It should be soon. They seem to have sneaked into Kaido's territory not long ago."
This territory does not refer to Wano Country. The Beast Pirates also have many territories in the outside world. Those territories do not have the same natural dangers as Wano Country, so it is not difficult to sneak in.
They wanted to gather information from behind the scenes, and they also had a previous mission, which was to collect information about the Beasts Pirates.
There is more than one CP0 in the World Government's secret service organization. Such small tasks are all carried out by other departments. For example, at this time, a pirate ship that has just arrived in the New World is heading to the territory outside the Beast Pirates.
According to the route, they will soon reach the island guarded by Scourge...
