One Piece: How Can I Become King Of The Pirate If You Don’t Work Hard?

"Have the White Knight Pirate left?"

"Yes, their ship has already left, and it seems that they have also taken away the woman who was previously teased by Arlong and his gang."

"Good!"

"Now is our chance!"

At the branch base, Nezumi listened to the news from Blaze and stood up from his chair excitedly.

Without any hesitation, he directly gathered a large number of marines and dispatched three warships, which set out from the harbor and went straight down along the current.

… ...

Half a day later.

Nezumi looked at the harbor of Cocoyasi Village, which was getting closer, and his hand holding the gun could not help but tremble.

After the White Knight Pirate left, the villagers who stayed here were nothing more than a dish of food in his eyes.

Blaze stood beside him, watching the civilians coming and going in the harbor, and he couldn't bear it: "Sir, do we... Do we really have to go to this extent?"

"There are at least several thousand people in this village, and all of them must..."

Blaze shuddered, his voice suddenly stopped, and he didn't dare to continue.

It was because Nezumi next to him had already pointed a flintlock rifle at his head: "Stupid mercy."

The next moment.

Bang!

A bullet pierced Blaze's skull, bringing out a mixture of red and white flesh from the back of his head.

As the blood splattered, it fell on Nezumi's face, making his expression even more ferocious.

His purpose in this trip was to take credit for defeating the Arlong Pirate, stealing Arlong's property, and, more importantly, destroying the evidence of his connection with Arlong.

In fact, the latter is the most important thing to him!

Looking at Blaze's fallen body, Nezumi was unprecedentedly calm at this moment and had gradually awakened from the state in which he was overwhelmed by his great achievement.

Compared to merit, life is more important!

Anyone who knows that he is connected with Arlong must die!

"Sail!"

Nezumi's angry roar awakened the dazed marine on the boat.

They looked at Blaze's body and quickened their movements, fearing that they would be the next to die.

Soon, in the harbor.

A familiar pirate flag appeared in Nezumi's sight. It had a round shield as the base and a skull pattern printed on it. 

It was the flag of the White Knight Pirate.

What made Nezumi sweat even more was the rotting fish head stuck on the top of the flag.

"Is that Arlong's head?!"

Pirates planted a flag on an island.

How could Nezumi not know the significance of this incident?

But at this moment, Nezumi was afraid that the evidence of his connection with Arlong would be exposed, and he was also eager to achieve great success in annihilating the Arlong pirates, so he could not care about so much.

After all, as long as he destroyed the evidence and took the credit, he could find another place to work after being promoted, even the Marine Headquarters.

"Go in!"

"Control everyone!"

Nezumi ordered through gritted teeth.

Then, three warships entered the harbor one after another. 

Hundreds of marines armed with live ammunition got off the ships, quickly dispersed, entered every household in the village, searched out the villagers one by one, and gathered them together at the harbor.

When everyone was at a loss, Genzo came hurriedly and protected Nojiko, then frowned at Nezumi: "Sir, what does this mean?!"

"Is everyone here?"

Nezumi did not answer Genzo's question. After glancing around, the expression on his face relaxed, and he turned to look at Genzo jokingly:

"What do you think of this scenario... The Arlong Pirates slaughter the whole village crazily, and Captain Nezumi fights desperately to defeat Arlong?!"

"Can you still call yourself a Marine?!"

Genzo was extremely angry, but he secretly said in his heart: As expected, the boy guessed right. That bastard, Nezumi, really planned to attack Cocoyasi village!

Recalling what Gawain said to him before he left, Genzo calmed down, and when he looked up, he saw the mocking look in Nezumi's eyes: "Oh, the only people who can judge justice are the living!"

"Don't blame me for not reminding you. The flag of the White Knight Pirate is planted here. Even a monster like Arlong can be killed by him. You'd better be mentally prepared to fight him!"

Genzo scolded.

Nezumi remained unmoved and determined to attack Cocoyasi village.

Genzo gritted his teeth and said: "Before Gawain left, he left you a letter. You'd better take a look."

"Letter?"

Nezumi was startled and frowned: "Bring it here."

Genzo took out a letter from his arms and put it in Nezumi's hand.

After the latter opened it, he only glanced at it, and his face instantly turned extremely pale, with sweat visible on his forehead.

Genzo even saw Nezumi's body trembling uncontrollably and subconsciously asked: "What did he say?"

"Roll!"

Nezumi was shocked and terrified because the letter facing him read: "All the evidence of your connection with Arlong is in my hands. If something were to happen to Cocoyasi Village, these letters would appear on the desk of the Marine Bureau of Investigation the next day!"

"Even if you make it to Impel Down, I will find you and kill you like I killed Arlong!"

When he saw the last word, Nezumi's hand trembled visibly, and he looked up at Genzo: "How did Arlong die?"

Genzo raised a cheerful smile: "Do you know how to clean a fish? Have you ever eaten sashimi?"

"What do you mean?"

"Scaling and bone removal, gutting and opening the belly."

As he spoke, Genzo's face showed an indescribable satisfaction: "When I saw Arlong's body, he had been cut into pieces."

"His body is still in the Arlong Park. No one is willing to collect it. You can go and take a look."

When that scene appeared in his mind, Nezumi felt a chill. He turned around and left quickly with the marine beside him.

"Madman!"

"Complete lunatic!"

"He actually... He actually went to such lengths for these bastards?!"

Nezumi cursed loudly, but his increasingly pale face and trembling voice still exposed his inner panic at the moment.

A few minutes later.

Nezumi gradually calmed down: "That means the evidence is still in that guy's hands. Although I can't take credit for the Arlong Pirate's defeat, I won't be immediately investigated by the Marine Bureau of Investigation."

"It's okay... Everything is okay..."

The frightened Nezumi could only comfort itself in this way, and a hint of color gradually returned to his face.

The marine ships leave as fast as they come.

Genzo raised his hand and patted Nojiko's back, looked at the warships leaving in the distance, then looked at the pirate flag standing in the harbor behind him and murmured: "This time, we don't have to worry about Cocoyasi Village's safety."

"Whether the danger comes from the threat of pirates or the Marines."

Gawain's calm face suddenly appeared in front of him again, and he shook his head unconsciously: "He is a reliable man, but he is a bit older than Nami, but..."

Genzo looked down at Nojiko, who asked in confusion: "Genzo, what's wrong?"

"Nothing, I just think you're almost old enough to find a boyfriend. Do you want to..."

"Roll!"

… … … 

The next day.

Nezumi returned to the 16th branch base with three warships.

He had just walked down the gangway when a familiar figure walked quickly from a distance, and at the same time, the marines in the harbor raised their flintlocks and aimed at Nezumi's head.

Nezumi naturally knew the identity of the visitor and frowned and asked:

"Commodore Pudding Pudding? What does that mean?"

Commodore Pudding Pudding looked at Nezumi in front of him with disgust and said in a cold and hard tone: "Your corruption has been exposed, so don't make things difficult for us."

Nezumi didn't know that Gawain had tricked him, and when he saw the surrounding situation, he felt his legs go weak: "Commodore Pudding Pudding, is there some misunderstanding here? I—"

"Oh."

Commodore Pudding Pudding sneered and said: "Save these words for the Marine Bureau of Investigation!"
