I can only achieve nothing and become the Pirate King

"deep cooperation?"

Sage raised his eyebrows, "How do you want to cooperate?"

How can a Shichibukai cooperate with an ordinary pirate like him?

Crocodile exhaled smoke and said: "If you want to occupy territory in the new world, you will need a lot of funds. I can invest in you, but in return, after I enter the new world, how about you help me?" "

In terms of financial resources, he has no shortage of them.

What is most lacking is influence and helpers.

Sager is very strong, Crocodile can feel this, and he is still a budding newcomer, and he is almost the same type as him, so he can cooperate with him.

"Help? Be my little brother?"

Sage crossed his legs and said, "Are you kidding me? Crocodile."

Crocodile said in a deep voice: "How can a person like you follow others and just use each other? You guarantee that my plan will not go wrong, and I guarantee that your plan will not go wrong."

The so-called cooperation does not mean that everyone is at peace with each other, and he is not that kind of person. By nature, he does not trust anyone.

But long-term mutual use can still be established.

"Um"

Sage nodded slightly, thought for a while, and said: "Okay, but I don't need your investment. My territory must be controlled by me personally. To put it another way, as a Shichibukai, you have a lot of business. How about letting me take a share? Sample?"

Among the Shichibukai, even Doflamingo doesn't have as many ways to make money as Crocodile. This guy is the most profitable among pirates!

This is also what Sage envies the most.

He was successful in everything he did, but in comparison, it was very difficult for him to even rob someone.

This robbery in Alabasta is probably the simplest.

Even so, when he first arrived, he played two games in a row.

As for any strength or weakness, he will explain it there.

Having robbed so much money, it is also a worry not to be able to spend it. There is no way to go to the new world at the moment. Neither I nor my subordinates are well prepared for this.

Before that, it would be a worry if too much money was stolen.

Everyone likes money, but if you have too much and can't use it, it becomes a burden.

His ship is only so big and can only hold so much treasure. He can't just stop robbing it when it's full, right?

Besides the collections being worth looking at, the remaining money has to go somewhere.

Before he had a territory, he had trouble even finding a place to bury the treasure. He was very confident about his bad luck, and he was basically certain that if he buried it today, it would be found tomorrow.

This part of the money was originally meant to be used for business. Only by having fixed assets could he ensure that if he capsized, he would still have the possibility of making a comeback.

Even if there is no Crocodile, he is still ready to find a suitable opportunity and continue to start a business!

Now Crocodile's invitation just gave him an opportunity.

Of course there is no such thing as messing around with others, but it's totally fine if you cooperate.

He is unlucky and works in one profession after another, but he doesn't think that such a good business person can also work in one profession after another, right?

Put some money in, what if money makes money?

"Participate in one share? It's not impossible. How much money do you have?"

Of course, Crocodile has many channels. In the underground world, he is also involved in finance, transportation and warehousing businesses.

If you don't accept investment, but you get invested, that's fine. It's just a guarantee of signing a contract.

Sage's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Just use the money robbed from Yudi and Albana to participate in the shares. It doesn't matter how big or small the business is, as long as you make a little bit!"

In this case, he at least has a channel where his money can be stored and can be withdrawn at any time.

As for putting it in the bank.

He's the target of a bounty from the World Government. Isn't that funny if he puts it in a bank?

A group of blue veins burst out from Crocodile's forehead, "You steal money from my territory, and then give it to me so that I can help you make money again?"

"Don't worry about it so much. Our contract is established, and it's all mine anyway. As for Albana, you be your hero, and I'll steal my treasure." Sage said with a smile.

Whether a creature like a pirate is trustworthy or not depends on the person, but most people still attach great importance to promises and contracts.

Crocodile is one of them.

In fact, in this sea, even small people may not go back on their word.

Sage felt that he was no small person, and Crocodile, as a Shichibukai, was naturally a standard big shot.

Crocodile looked deeply at Sager, lit another cigar, and waited for the smoke to float up before saying:

"Okay, I agree to your conditions, but don't grab Yudi. After all, it is my property. When it comes to valuation, your principal of 500 million beli will be counted."

"Deal." Sage thought for a while and agreed to the valuation.

It's not a big economic town like Rogge Town. It's a gambling city in the desert. It's the size of this. Although he is more interested in Crocodile's property, it's not like all the money is left in the rainy land.

Compared with a cooperation channel, he can let the city go.

"I originally asked you to go to Albana, just to add a layer of security to my plan. Since you take the initiative to participate, I might as well tell you what is behind my Utopia plan." Crocodile said slowly.

The so-called Utopia Plan is to let the king's army and the rebel army fight in the royal city of Albana, and at the same time detonate the special bomb hidden in Albana, wiping out the king and most of the army.

Without the backbone, Crocodile, as a hero in this desert, will naturally be supported by others and control the kingdom in disguise.

It doesn't matter whether he is a king or not, as long as the country falls into his hands.

"There is a terrifying weapon buried deep in this desert. A single blow can destroy an island. Only by gaining this country can I find that thing. For this, I need the Alabasta army to bury it completely. As long as I If you master it, you will have enough time to find that weapon."

After hearing Crocodile's plan, Sager seemed a little uninterested, "I'm not interested in that kind of thing. My own strength is the most important thing."

He seemed to remember that there was such a thing here. He couldn't remember what it was, but it didn't matter.

Others can rely on external things, but he cannot.

With his bad luck, whether he can find it is one thing, and whether he can use it is another matter. If he has that time, it is better to improve himself.

His own strength is the only way to ensure that his plan does not go wrong. This is how he has always been.

"Are you strong on your own?"

Crocodile paused slightly while biting his cigar. He didn't know what he thought of. He stayed there for a while, then shook his head and said, "I have my plan. You just have to promise to do it."

"Yeah."

A red dot flashed in Sage's eyes and he smiled and said: "That's it, but you have to be careful. If you stay in this desert for a long time, you will easily lose your morale. Don't be defeated by the little pirates who come from somewhere. For example"

boom!

From the cage in front of them, several people suddenly fell out and fell to the ground.

"A certain hot-blooded little pirate."

Sag looked at the straw hat boy who was thrown to pieces in the cage and stood up again.

"Crocodale!"

The Straw Hat boy grabbed the bars of the cage and shouted to Crocodile sitting on the sofa: "Fight with me!!"

His face became gloomy, a haze appeared in his eyes, and he said slowly to Sage: "Are you looking down on me a little bit?"

With that said, he stood up and faced the people in the cage, "Is this kind of thing worthy of defeating me? Don't worry, the guest of honor hasn't arrived yet. I will deal with you all when he does."

"Damn! He actually used a despicable trap and lost his strength."

Luffy, who was holding on to the fence, suddenly went limp and fell to the ground again.

"This is an avoidable trap! Why do you have to go through the pirate passage? You can obviously go to the VIP room!" Nami yelled at Luffy.

"Hahahaha, it's beyond my expectation. Would anyone really take that stupid passage?"

Sage was amused and laughed: "The sea is really magical."

He was still saying just now that he didn't know what kind of fool would take the passage marked 'Pirates', but someone really came close.

There were four people inside the cage.

In addition to Luffy, there is also a green algae head, a long nose, and a clever orange-haired woman.

"Hey, why are you here?"

Sauron held down the hilt of the knife at his waist, stared at Sag, and said in a deep voice: "Are you cooperating with Crocodile?"

"A natural disaster!"

Nami and Usopp hugged each other and shouted in fear: "It's over, why is he here too!"

Two hundred and seventy million.

This number was completely beyond their imagination.

Luffy only had 30 million, not even a fraction of others.

"Just knock them down together!"

Luffy got up, glared at Sag, and stretched out his hand to grab the fence, "You guy, you are really a bad guy and you have no strength."

"Then don't touch it!"

Zoro shouted and fell into deep thought again, "No, why do you have no strength?"

"Hailou Stone."

Sage changed to a more comfortable position on the sofa, put out his cigar into the ashtray, poured a glass of wine, and said slowly: "A stone with the energy of the sea. If a person with abilities just relies solely on ability, it will It’s powerless.”

With that said, he drank all the wine in the glass, stood up and said: "Let's go, Lao Sha, get me some record pointers and mounts. If you don't want to grab the rainy land, I will go to Albana with my men. "

"Don't call me Lao Sha!"

Crocodile's face darkened, "If you have anything, I will order someone to give it to you. By coincidence, my agents should be arriving soon, and I will send them a message to prevent you from being blocked by them."

Sage shrugged and walked towards the upper steps.

…

After getting a few record pointers and a few crocodile cars from Crocodile, Sager set off with his people.

"Eh? Aren't you going to rob it? I'm ready to do it."

A crocodile was driving quickly through the desert carrying a huge box, stirring up streams of smoke.

In the empty box, there were four people, Sager and others. Among them, Renedia bit her straw and took a sip of the water supplied from the rain ground while talking there.

"It's not necessary. I used Yudi's money to invest in shares. I can just go to Albana and grab it."

Sagar spread his hands and landed on the back of the sofa behind him. He looked like a golden sword. He smiled at the three of them and said, "Life is full of surprises, but this is a good thing. With business channels, my dream will come true." It goes a step further, and there will be a place to put the money stolen in the future.”

"Weapons?"

Lily, on the other hand, thought for a while and said: "Does a weapon that can destroy an island with just one strike really exist? Letty, with your skills, have you ever thought about this problem?"

They also shared Sager's information and learned Crocodile's true purpose.

"I am a shipbuilder, not a weapons craftsman."

Renedia shook her head and said: "If it is a cannon, it must be at least a hundred times larger than the current cannon, and the barrel must be a hundred times larger, and the firing speed must also exceed a hundred times. It is probably only possible. But just this kind of gunpowder If the amount of energy is piled up together, once the chamber explodes, it will be devastating, and my technology is not possible for the time being."

"What a terrible weapon"

Marika's smile remained unchanged, "Does that Shichibukai want this kind of thing? If he can get it."

"It won't be anything like that."

Sarge leaned his head back and straightened his head slowly: "The power to destroy an island is not impossible on the sea. The crocodile has become petty and angry. Come to think of it, after Whitebeard's failure, he lost Got the will."

"Whitebeard?" Lily asked.

"ah"

Sag nodded and said: "It seems that he has challenged Whitebeard before. It's true that in this desert, I encountered three natural elements, but three losers."

One was sent to the East China Sea, unable to move due to orders from his superiors.

One also challenged Whitebeard and became his son after being defeated.

In the same way, the crocodile also challenged and failed to become the Shichibukai, having a sweet dream at the entrance of the first half.

It's just that now the dreamer is his partner.

As for whether Crocodile will be defeated.

In my memory, it seems like it was a defeat, but that was without Sager's participation.

"Although it's a favor from Garp"

Sage opened the curtains and looked at the desert passing by outside. "But we have a big plan to make a fortune. If necessary, I will not let Crocodile fail."

It’s hard to find a business partner, and Sag won’t let him lose!

Five hundred million beli is nothing, but business channels are important.

If Crocodile was defeated, where would he find such a person?

If the Shichibukai is gone, it will be gone, and the country is not important. What Sage wants to ensure is that he has a place to put his money!

He was completely uninterested in other things.

Anyone who sabotages his plan to make a fortune and become a landlord is his enemy.

It was for Garp's sake that he spared Luffy's life.

There is no way, even if you are a pirate, you still have to be moral.

Sage is not the kind of little person who goes back on his word without any sense of measure. Otherwise, there would be no such thing as overlord color.
