As usual, Sag cut off the mast of the warship with a kick and escaped from the pursuit of the warship.
The sea at night is extremely dark, with only the moon and stars in the sky providing a little light. However, the drifting ships on the sea also reflect that light, emitting a golden glow.
On the black-sailed warship, a group of pirates held lanterns and looked at the treasures scattered on the deck with shining eyes.
Sager's eyes were also shining, and he was even more excited than these pirates.
This was the first time he had seen money!
Back then, he had done so many things, but he had never seen a single Bailey. Now he had finally seen money!
The Bailey he had robbed from the mayor was worth eight million, not counting the price of the gold and jewelry.
"So I say, there's nothing to rob from the poor. Robbing half a town only gives you one million Baileys, but robbing a rich man gives you everything!" Sag said proudly.
These veteran pirates all agreed with this.
Civilians all have expenses, and it's good enough if they can have a little extra from the money they earn. Rather than robbing a town, they would rather rob merchant ships.
"Now, let's divide the spoils! Lily, give me the sword!"
Sager laughed and reached out to Lily. Lily drew out the rapier and placed it in his hand.
"I'm the captain. Of the eight million berries, I take four million. The rest, the navigator gets 5%, Ajin as the battle captain also gets 5%, Palu gets 3%, and everyone else gets a share. I won't participate!"
Logically speaking, as the captain, he could have gotten a share of the remaining money, but Sager generously refused it.
"As for these treasures."
He held the rapier and went straight to the center of the treasure, moving half away and the remaining half to the pirates. "The rest are all yours. The officers will be given priority to choose, and you can take the rest yourself. If you are not satisfied with the spoils you have taken,
He pointed at the wine barrels that had been brought up long ago and laughed, "Let's have a wine contest. Whoever wins will be eligible to win the spoils. Let's have some fun!"
"Oh!!" the pirates cheered loudly.
There is no way to subdivide gold and jewelry because no one knows their specific value. Besides, they cannot be converted into Baileys immediately. Basically, you take one and I take one.
As for size, weight and so on, there is nothing to say.
It would be better to decide through drinking, which would be more in line with the pirates' wishes.
Sager returned the sword to Lily and shouted to the pirates, "Let's have some fun, tomorrow we're heading to Nadia!"
"It's Natia!" Lily corrected again.
"They're all pretty much the same."
Sag was in a good mood and didn't bother with Lily. He returned to the captain's room humming a little tune.
Lily's expression changed, and she followed Sager to the captain's room.
"Lily, don't you want to go and have some fun? I remember you didn't have any money either. If you get the money, shouldn't you think about where to go shopping or buy something? After all, you are a girl."
Sager sat on the chair, crossed his legs, and said with a smile.
"That has to wait until we find a town. But you...are we going to keep robbing in the East China Sea? Even if you save enough money and buy the land, as a pirate you will be exposed sooner or later, right?" Lily asked.
She was not dissatisfied with the fact that Sager only thought about robbing. After all, she was a pirate herself, and pirates were supposed to rob, so there was no problem with that.
She was just worried about Sager's dream.
This guy is determined to buy a piece of land and become a landlord.
If he were to retire peacefully, perhaps he wouldn't be pursued by the world government. But if he didn't keep a low profile, he would be discovered one day.
Although she has only been following Sager for a short time, Lily has gotten to know him a little bit. This guy is not a low-key person.
After a few days of contact with Ajin and the others, Lily also knew what most pirates were like. They were either resting on uninhabited islands or temporarily settling in weak villages. Although they also robbed towns, she had never heard of them rushing in without considering the defense force.
Most of them focused on robbing merchant ships and tried their best to avoid the navy.
But Sager is different. Perhaps because of his great strength, he doesn't consider these things at all. As long as he can find the target, he will definitely rob it. Now he even wants to cause trouble for a country.
Not only is he not low-key, he is even very arrogant.
After all, he wants to become a king even if he catches a fish.
What's more, he is very unlucky.
Even if he can grab enough money as expected and buy the land, can he really keep it with his bad luck?
"Who said I was going to buy land in the East China Sea?"
Sager smiled and said, "I am serious about my career. No matter what I do, I will do it to the top, and being a pirate is the same. But some tracks are different. Lily, do you know what One Piece is?"
"Goldo Roger?" Lily asked in confusion.
"I'm talking about the connotations that come with the title."
Sager said, "Besides, that's Gol D. Roger, don't be misled by the news."
"D" Lily murmured, not really understanding the difference, and continued: "If you are the Pirate King, find Raftel. Only then will you be recognized as the Pirate King."
"That's the problem, but some people are not interested, like me."
Sager said: "I have no interest in Raftel. Being the Pirate King does not mean that I must go to Raftel. If I have enough power and become the pinnacle of pirates, who dares to say that this is not the Pirate King?"
Sail around the world, find the final island, and then be targeted by the world government, who will rack their brains to hunt you down.
Sager has no interest in this kind of Pirate King.
"Since I'm a pirate, I can't just relax in the Four Seas. The Four Seas is where the World Government has the most power. If I stay here, I'll just be targeted. I have no choice but to go to the second half of the Grand Line in the New World. That's my goal!"
Sager clenched his fists, "'Beasts' occupied Wano Country, 'Big Mom' founded Totland, Whitebeard planted a large flag in the New World, and even the youngest 'Red Hair' has a stable rear base!"
"These people are known as the Pirate Emperors. They have vast territories and many younger brothers. They can do whatever they want. They are all in the New World. Only there can I fulfill my dream!"
He is not a fool. How could he, as a pirate, still think of buying a piece of land in the East China Sea?
He had this idea before because he did not go against the World Government. Whether he was farming, fishing, being a bodyguard or a businessman, or even being a Yongko star, it was all within the scope allowed by the World Government.
At that time he was legal, and of course he thought he owned the land legally and became a legal landlord.
But being a pirate is illegal now. If I want to fulfill my dream, there is no chance for me to go to the Four Seas and the first half of the Grand Line. Of course, it is possible to be a pirate here, and it is even easy, but if I want to be a big landlord, I can only go to the New World.
He had never seen any pirate who could occupy one place for a long time in the four seas and the first half.
Clean up and get ashore?
You can't be the Pirate King then!
At that time, whether you buy it with money or rob it violently, you will have the greatest chance in the new world.
The paths of those emperors and silver medalists on the sea are replicable.
By seizing territory and establishing himself as king, his dream can be said to be half fulfilled.
As for grabbing territory in the East China Sea, it is feasible in theory but not in practice.
There are indeed non-member countries in the East China Sea, and those countries are not under the protection of the World Government, but that is useless. Not to mention the defense capabilities of these countries themselves, even if they are successful, the World Government will find an excuse and be able to add a member country.
Instead of worrying about the World Government, it is better to go directly to the New World.
There, he can fulfill the dreams of both the landlord and the pirate king and achieve a win-win situation.
winwin!
