Who made him the Pirate King?

After hearing Storm's words.

The nervous expression on Robin's face dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the final analysis.

"Nico Robin of the Storm Pirates" and "Nico Robin of the Straw Hat Pirates" are not the same person.

Storm did not let Robin shout out the life declaration of "I want to live".

Even after joining Storm's command.

Robin's daily life is easy and comfortable, and she basically doesn't have to worry about any troublesome events.

But the miserable life of the past few decades.

Still follows Robin like an unbreakable shadow.

In Robin's heart, she is still the "Devil's Child" who is not trusted by others and the world!

After the Storm Pirates were established.

The feeling of "not being trusted" in Robin's heart has been eliminated a lot.

Because among the members of the Storm Pirates, there is a new member named "Portgas D. Ace"!

Which is more important, "Devil's Child" or "Son of the Pirate King"?

Even Robin, as the person involved, can give an answer without hesitation.

However, just now.

Storm directly revealed his identity as "Vice Admiral White Dragon of the Navy Headquarters".

At that moment, many bad ideas emerged in Robin's mind.

The worst one was -

Did Storm recruit her in order to send her to the Navy Headquarters one day?

But Robin's bad ideas soon disappeared without a trace under Storm's self-proof.

Which one is more important, "Son of the Devil" or "Red Dragon Emperor"?

The answer to this question is even simpler than the answer to the previous question.

The reason why "Son of the Pirate King" is so important is that it is an extension of the sinful bloodline of Pirate King Roger.

But "Red Dragon Emperor"?

Robin has not witnessed the legend of Pirate King Roger with her own eyes, but she has witnessed what Red Dragon Emperor did in the Sabaody Archipelago with her own eyes.

It is no exaggeration to say.

In today's ocean, the Red Dragon Emperor should be one of the few people closest to the throne of the Pirate King!

The pirates on the ocean who can be compared with the Red Dragon Emperor.

It's Whitebeard, the beast, Big Mom, and Red Hair...

But it's definitely not the so-called "Devil's Son"!

Thinking of this, Robin's mood suddenly became relaxed.

Her life in the Storm Pirates is very comfortable, and she doesn't want to become the enemy of the "Captain"...

"Robin..."

Storm stared at the Devil's Son and said in a faint tone.

"Will the expression you show now hurt my heart too much?"

"Sorry."

Robin immediately bowed her head and admitted her mistake.

She crossed her hands on her chest and released the power of the [Flower-Flower Fruit], growing some arms on Storm's body to help the latter pinch his shoulders and back and relax his muscles.

"Don't think you can get my forgiveness like this!"

Storm snorted coldly and said half-truthfully.

"One day, I will personally hand you over to the admiral of the Navy Headquarters!"

Storm remembered very clearly that he didn't really want Nico Robin, the "archaeologist" at first.

He didn't have any special feelings for Robin.

Storm didn't like the other party's dark and sinister character at that time.

As for Robin's "archaeology" skills...

Storm didn't care even more.

He really had no interest in the ancient history of this world.

As for the people on the sea who kept bragging about "Joey Boy"...

From the master of the throne of the sky, to the Pirate King, and even the Pirate Emperors...

The top strong men in the sea kept bragging about "Joey Boy"...

Storm remembered very clearly that the name of the last person who was praised was-

Kozuki Oden!

He was the peerless idiot who didn't fight or resist when others came to his doorstep, and danced for the enemy for several years!

Storm was really worried that "Joey Boy" was an oversized Kozuki Oden...

Let's go back to Nico Robin.

If it weren't for Aokiji Kuzan's commission, Storm actually planned to leave Robin in Alabasta.

Storm didn't want a subordinate like Robin.

But Crocodile attached great importance to this "archaeologist".

It's a pity that Aokiji, Storm's direct superior, gave orders.

Storm chose to accept Robin as a subordinate.

It wasn't until later that time.

The relationship between Storm and Robin became familiar.

But no matter what.

If Storm finds an opportunity in the future, he will definitely take Robin to see Aokiji!

Aokiji, the guy, should deal with the trouble he caused himself!

However.

Storm's words "Leave it to the admiral of the navy".

It would have been better if he didn't say it.

Once he said it, others just thought he was joking.

Robin didn't say anything, but she silently increased the strength of her shoulder-kneading and back-pounding.

Perona, who has a more eccentric personality, couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Hehehe... Captain, are you saying that you can become a navy admiral in the future?"

The Red Dragon Emperor, after just one battle, was recognized by the people of the sea as the "fifth pirate emperor."

If it weren't for the fact that Sekiryuutei hadn't officially entered the new world to seize territory and expand his power.

The "fifth" prefix can be completely eliminated!

Didn't Sekiryuutei defeat Red-haired Shanks?

Then Sekiryuutei should replace Red-haired Shanks and become the "fourth pirate emperor"!

Having said that.

What would it be like for Sekiryuutei to become an admiral?

Perona couldn't imagine it.

Storm couldn't imagine it either.

"Honestly... I don't think I can become an admiral in the navy..."

Storm frowned, pondered for a while, and sighed regretfully.

"Navy Headquarters Admiral Candidate... this is probably the limit of my military rank!"

There are only three positions in the Navy Headquarters.

A carrot and a pit.

Unless there is a major event such as a "change of leadership in the navy" or a "sudden death of a general".

Otherwise.

The position of admiral at the Navy Headquarters is extremely difficult to replace.

Navy changes...

Storm doesn't see much hope yet.

The general died suddenly...

Rather than expecting this to happen, it would be better to expect the Five Old Stars to die suddenly.

'The old navy can't do it... the new navy has a certain possibility...'

An idea flashed through Storm's mind, but he didn't say it out loud.

Vice Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, members of the Blade Force... all of these things are definite "facts".

As for the "New Navy", Storm has not yet received any contact from Zefa.

Zefa is still taking care of students!

The establishment of the new navy (NEO navy) will take some time.

"Candidate general..."

Perona, who had just made fun of her, suddenly felt speechless.

"Captain, why are you really thinking about this problem?"

"Of course it's because - I want to make progress so much!"

Storm said seriously.

Later he also advertised for the Blade Force.

"The name of the naval unit I am currently in cannot be disclosed for the time being, but as the second-in-command, I am qualified to form a naval team! This has also been verbally recognized by the current Marshal of the Navy Headquarters!

"Does anyone want to be in the navy?

"The specific job content is the same as mine - just be a good pirate!"

Storm is the second-in-command of the Blades.

The subordinates he recruited were naturally part of the Blade Force.

What is Blade Force?

Naval guerrillas moving freely on the sea!

Writing Freedom Operations Navy.

Pronounced as paid pirate.

Facing the recruitment of Vice Admiral Storm, the members of the Storm Pirates generally had the same attitude.

"I don't want to be in the Navy!"

"Not interested!"

"Not everyone is like the captain and likes to play this childish and boring 'multi-layered identity game'!"

"Hey, hey, hey! Luo!"

When Storm heard these last words, he couldn't help but look at the venomous Luo.

"I don't like being misunderstood either!"

"Yeah?"

Luo crossed his arms and looked cold.

"I think you're enjoying it, captain, right?"

"You guy..."

Several black lines appeared on Storm's forehead.

"You are not a 'poison doctor', are you? When you speak, your mouth looks like it has been tempered with poison!"

"I'm not good at toxicology."

Luo replied calmly.

"Surgery is what I specialize in, Captain."

Just then.

A weak voice sounded.

"Captain, if you join the navy, will you get money?"

"Of course! Nami!"

Storm's eyes lit up, and he immediately abandoned Luo and looked at the orange girl on the other side.

“Even new recruits can get an annual salary of two million Baileys!

"You are a 'Yunduo' who has eaten [Yun Yun Fruit]. Based on [Yun Yun Fruit]'s ability, you can also be rated as a 'College Officer'.

“The salary of a school officer is much higher than that of a top soldier!

"Are you interested in joining us to receive military pay?"

"I'm very interested in money!"

Nami first openly revealed her little hobby, but then she hesitated.

"But I really don't like the navy... The navy I met before were all a bunch of bastards..."

"That's what the Navy is like."

Storm nodded and named him directly without caring.

"Just like Akainu, Kizaru, Aokiji and the like... they are actually a bunch of bastards.

"These days, there are not many truly 'just navy's."

Everyone was shocked by Storm's unruly attitude.

Isn’t it bad for the Vice Admiral of the Navy Headquarters to say this?

Luo was silent for a moment and asked softly.

"Where is the Warring States Marshal?"

Storm glanced at Luo and said openly.

"A naval tool who has completely abandoned his past belief in justice and 'dedicated his whole life' to the World Government."

Ace hesitated for a while and asked in a low voice.

"Where's the naval hero?"

Storm was not shy about his venom.

"There is no 'heart of justice' at all. He is an old reckless man who just does whatever comes to his mind, regardless of the consequences."

Nami, who listened with great interest, asked curiously.

"Where is Vice Admiral Hakuryuu of the Navy Headquarters?"

Storm was stunned.

"White Dragon? Oh, you mean me?"

Storm pondered for a long time.

"Not as good as the best, but better than the worst... Anyway, I'm not a proper navy!"

Hearing Storm's evaluation of himself.

The crew members of the Storm Pirates around him were immediately frowning.

"Captain... you think of yourself like this... It's too..."

Brooke hesitated for a long time, and couldn't find a suitable adjective.

"In my opinion, I'm really not a good marine."

Storm said frankly.

"I also want to say - my heart and my actions are as clear as a mirror, and everything I do is justice.

"But everyone, pirates are pirates!

"I am no exception."
