A sledgehammer breaks into pirates

Standing in the elevator, Crocodile felt a little emotional.

He is somewhat wealthy, after all, he spent so many years of effort to capture Alabasta.

I originally thought that this should be comparable to Orgrim.

After all, it sounds like Avalon is not very different from Alabasta.

They have a population of tens of millions, and even talking about the army, Alabasta's army is even larger.

From an island perspective, Alabasta is also a very large island.

If the location is favorable, Orgrim is in the Sea of ​​Eternal Night.

He Crocodile also has a vast desert.

It’s nothing more than a lack of a foundation in the new world.

Crocodile originally wanted to build this foundation in about five years, just like Orgrim now owns the Evernight Sea.

But after seeing the Golden City, Crocodile still felt that Orgrim...In other words, the gap between the Warhammer Pirates and him.

The gap in financial resources and power.

In terms of financial resources, Orgrim might be able to surpass him by a dozen or so.

In terms of power, the Golden City has proven that Orgrim has enough confidence to allow the world government to get along with him as an equal. Many matters must be discussed with him, the King of the Night.

Otherwise, such a neutral zone would be a joke and cannot be established.

Look, the warring statesman of the navy, the marshal of the navy who is the overlord of the sea, has to come to the Golden City's platform in person. Isn't this proof enough?

We are about to see Orgrim at this moment. We haven’t seen him for so many years, and I really feel something unusual in my heart.

Originally, Crocodile felt that there would not be too much pressure on him to meet Orgrim.

Because he was sure that Orgrim would not fight against him.

Olbia also sent a message that as long as he did not cause trouble with Orgrim, Orgrim would not bother to pay attention to him.

The two are at the same time, and although Orgrim is doing better now, Crocodile still feels that he shouldn't be under too much pressure.

But at this time, I haven't seen Orgrim's face yet, I'm just about to see him, standing in the elevator that is gradually rising.

That pressure is getting stronger and stronger.

Just as Crocodile was thinking about this, the elevator door opened.

Then, Olbia said:"We're here, Orgrim is inside."

Crocodile nodded, secretly adjusted his mood, and stepped out of the elevator.

Still walking around the screen, I happened to see Orgrim sitting on the sofa, holding a tea cup in his hand, his eyes were a little hollow, as if he was thinking about something.

"Although there are rumors that Orgrim hardly manages the affairs of the Warhammer Pirates and leaves everything to Beckman, but...It seems that even if he doesn't take care of things, Orgrim always thinks about the future, right?" Crocodile thought so in his heart.

He felt that he was already very busy. How could Orgrim be idle when he stood higher?

You see, he is thinking about something now, although he doesn't know what it is. , but it must be very important, right? Can it even affect the situation on the sea?

After all, it seems that he just met the marshal of the navy yesterday. He must have discussed something very important, which made him a little undecided. Bar?

"What should I eat for lunch? I kind of want to eat steak....Did that damn woman in Gion drink that cup of milk? so boring..."Orgrim thought in his heart.

That's right, he wasn't thinking about anything important at all, as Crocodile guessed, he was just bored....

Just as I was thinking about this, I heard the sound of footsteps and my thoughts were pulled back.

Then, Orgrim turned to look at Crocodile.

It really had been many, many years since he had seen each other, or in other words, he and Crocodile had almost never met.

The only time they ever met was in front of Roger's execution platform.

Crocodile was a high-spirited guy who was the first to respond to the chaotic frenzy set off by Orgrim.

It can be regarded as giving him some help. In terms of friendship, it is just a bit.

Putting aside everything else, Orgrim actually has a good impression of people like Crocodile.

Able, strong, ambitious, and able to endure loneliness.

A complete template for a hero.

Orgrim had reason to appreciate people like Crocodile.

With a raised corner of his mouth, Orgrim stood up directly and greeted with a smile:"Krokdal, this is the first official meeting between the two of us, right? Come on, come on, sit down, you're welcome."

Crocodile I was a little surprised. According to the news from Orbiah, Orgrim should be the kind of person who has no interest or affection in him, right?

Why do you look so enthusiastic when we meet today?

He glanced at Olbia for a moment and thought, are you trying to trick me?

Crocodile was confused in his heart, but on the surface, he remained calm. He nodded with a smile and said:"Yes, this is the first official meeting between us, the King of the Night...."

He is a man who knows how to be patient, able to bear the infamy of King Shichibukai, and the reputation of a 'waste', and has worked hard in Alabasta for nearly twenty years.

There is no doubt that he, Crocodile, can definitely pick it up and put it down!

Therefore, before coming to see Orgrim, Crocodile already knew what attitude, identity, and tone he should use.

Arrogance is reserved for the weak, respect is for the strong.

He was ready to bow his head, and he was also ready for Orgrim to give him a blow and endure some humiliation.

But, it seems, this is not the case.

However, this did not affect his thoughts. He still respectfully called Orgrim the 'King of the Night' without any pretense at all.

"Jie, hahahaha, you're too polite. It seems that the King of the Night is not a king. You and I are at the same time. When I was in Rogge Town, I was taken care of by you. Just call me Orgrim."Orgrim said with a smile.

Since Orgrim said this, Crocodile didn't intend to be pretentious.

After all, he didn't really come to be a dog for Orgrim.

He was greeted and sat down. , Crocodile then continued:"Okay, Orgrim, to be honest, I didn't expect that you would have this attitude towards me...."

"This attitude? Orgrim smiled, and then said:"Do you think that I am giving you some condescending posture, or that I am asking you to stand and listen to my lectures?""

"It’s not like I haven’t thought about it..."Crocodile said with a smile.

At this moment, Queen Stussy placed the teacups and poured Crocodile a cup of tea.

Crocodile took the tea cup, nodded to Queen Stussy and said:"Thank you, Ms. Stussy."

"You're welcome, please use it. Stussy said with a smile.

"Jie hahahaha, then you think of me too badly, right?"Orgrim laughed.

After a slight pause, Orgrim took a sip of tea first, and then continued:"After all, that kind of gesture and approach will have no effect on you at all, Crocodile....Will you be frightened by me if I put on a majestic posture?"

"Of course not, respect is respect, fear is fear. Out of my attitude towards the strong, I can respect you, even be in awe, but I will not be afraid of you....Even though, I did feel a lot of pressure. Crocodile said softly

"Yes, even if we haven't talked, I know that you are this kind of person. Otherwise, you will not enter the new world, let alone come to see me, so there is no need for me to act like a superior person. It's just a joke. Orgrim said with a smile.

After finishing speaking, Orgrim picked up a cigar from the table, gestured and said,"Try it?"

Crocodile was not polite, nodded and said:"Okay.""

Orgrim handed Crocodile a cigar, although he also lit one.

The two of them sat together in a very harmonious atmosphere, and started puffing away.

"Have you ever thought about doing it with me? In fact, I admire you very much. If you are willing to join our Warhammer Pirates, Crocodile...I can give you great freedom and space. If you want a core cadre status, I can give it to you. If you want to be an independent captain, I can also give you a new world for you to roam....how? Orgrim asked after exhaling a puff of smoke.

Although he felt that the possibility of such a thing was extremely low, Crocodile should not be such a person.

But there is no disadvantage in asking, you see, Yesterday, I casually asked Gion Ichi if I wanted to go on a date. Didn't I just go on the date happily and even get unexpected results?

What if Crocodile really had a twitch in his head and agreed?

What if ? Didn't you make a lot of money?

After listening to Orgrim's words, Crocodile couldn't help but smile, waved his hands and said:"Please spare me for this kind of thing. What I could have done more than ten years ago, I can't do it." Do you need to do it now? I have spent nearly twenty years, not on psychological construction, to build a people who will defect to you, Orgrim...."

"Sure enough, I still refused...."Orgrim curled his lips and said helplessly.

"Do you really think that I will agree? Crocodile asked with a smile.

"Jie hahahahaha, that’s right, there’s nothing to be disappointed about. Orgrim laughed.

After a slight pause, Orgrim asked again:"So, do you want to be the Four Emperors when you come to the new world?""

"Well, yes, I have this idea, is that okay?" Crocodile asked.

He knew that as a Yonko or something, the rest of the New World had no qualifications to compete with him.

In the final analysis, this still depends on Orgrim's attitude.

If Orgrim is not happy, It would be difficult for him, Crocodile, to sit in this position.

If Orgrim was willing, everything would be much easier.

"It's not impossible, I won't care about this. Whoever wants to be a candidate can just do it. There is no need to look at my opinion."Orgrim smiled and said.

If you don't object, that's fine.

Crocodile felt a little more at ease.

"But what I'm curious about is, what are you going to do in the new world? What would you do if you took the position of the so-called Pirate Emperor?"Orgrim suddenly asked.

Crocodile looked into Orgrim's eyes and said nothing for a while.

Orgrim also stared at him quietly.

After a long time, Crocodile said softly He said:"The ultimate goal can be regarded as challenging you, defeating you, and replacing you...."

"Jie hahahahaha..."Orgrim laughed.

"ultimate goal...? Are you really honest? Are you afraid that I will kill you here? Orgrim asked with a smile.

"Not to mention whether this is a neutral zone created by you yourself, I think that without this kind of tolerance, you, Orgrim, would be nothing more than that...."Crocodile said nonchalantly

"I really appreciate you more and more, Crocodile, do you really not think about it and do it with me? I rarely invite others like this. Orgrim asked with a smile again.

Crocodile still shook his head.

"That's such a shame..."Orgrim smacked his lips and said

"If the ultimate goal is to challenge me, then...What about at this stage? Is it convenient to say? If it's inconvenient, just treat it as if I didn't ask. Orgrim said again.

"Stand firm and develop strength, nothing less....Of course, if you want to go against the navy, I can cooperate with you to a certain extent. Crocodile said softly, not hiding anything.

"Do you recognize my position as commander in the pirate camp? Orgrim raised his eyebrows and said

"No, what I admit is your great power. Crocodile smiled and said.

The meaning of his words was very obvious. If one day, Crocodile possesses enough to challenge your Orgrim's power, times will change.

However , , this is enough for Orgrim.

On the sea, there are many people who want to challenge him Orgrim.

But who has succeeded?

Sitting in the strongest position, he is already We must meet the challenges from heroes from all over the world.

If we don’t even have the courage, how can we be the strongest?
