Chương 1918: Battle of the North Sea (64)

He knew that Aokiji did not fully agree with some of the World Government's practices, but in this situation, he could only choose to temporarily put aside his own views.

"Let's go, let the World Government handle this!"

Zhan Guo waved his hand and turned away from the edge of the pit.

His steps seemed a little heavy, as if he was carrying the weight of the whole world.

With the departure of Zhan Guo, tens of thousands of naval officers and soldiers began to get busy.

They quickly launched a search and rescue operation, hoping to find survivors in the ruins of Mary Geoise.

At the same time, news of what happened in Mary Geoise spread like wildfire.

The first to learn the news were the Buggy Pirates, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Ever since participating in the Battle of Marineford, the Buggy Pirates have been hiding on several islands next to the Red Earth Continent.

They act as a barrier between the Rockefeller Kingdom and the world government, and their lives are quite comfortable.

Especially after the World Government intended to block the New World's economy, the Buggy Pirates' lives have been thriving.

They used their special status to maneuver between the Rockefeller Kingdom and the World Government, and gained a lot of benefits from it.

Relying on their network of connections within the World Government, the Buggy Pirates cleverly circumvented the World Government's ban and secretly sold some items that were expressly banned by the World Government to the Rockefeller Kingdom.

As for the Rockefeller Kingdom, they really need such an underground force to help them obtain things that they cannot get openly.

Although the Rockefeller Kingdom has now almost reached the point of openly challenging the World Government, in fact, this country has only been established for more than ten years. Whether in terms of its foundation or influence, it is far from comparable to the World Government.

Especially in a place like the New World where the environment is extremely harsh, the Rockefeller Kingdom needs to purchase a large amount of supplies from outside to maintain the operation of the country.

The Buggy Pirates just happened to play the role of this re-export trader.

According to incomplete statistics, the Rockefeller Kingdom needs to purchase tens of billions of materials from outside every year, which costs them tens of billions of funds.

The Buggy Pirates made huge profits by purchasing the materials that the Rockefeller Kingdom urgently needed from the World Government at low prices, and then reselling them to the Rockefeller Kingdom at high prices. It can be said that they made a fortune.

This is simply a monopoly business!

What's more, it was brought to your door by someone else. It's simply pie in the sky!

In this way, the Buggy Pirates relied on only one medium-sized island and five small islands to support a full 100, 000 pirates, and even had a lot of surplus!

These 100, 000 pirates are not ordinary pirates. They all have considerable strength and ability.

More than half of them escaped from the siege of the Rockefeller Kingdom. They were able to successfully escape to the territory of the Buggy Pirates under the siege of such a powerful force of the Rockefeller Kingdom. Their abilities should not be underestimated.

Although these people may be of varying quality, each of them is a tough guy who dares to fight on the sea.

After all, in this era, there are almost no kind people who can go out to sea as pirates.

However, the situation changed dramatically after a shocking explosion suddenly broke out in the Red Earth Continent.

The power of the explosion was extremely shocking. It created a crater nearly five kilometers deep, and the huge rocks in it fell like raindrops into the sea at the foot of the Red Earth Continent. This sea happened to be the territory of the Buggy Pirates.

It's like a huge continent suddenly dropped from a height of 5, 000 meters!

Fortunately, the continent was smashed into powder during the fall, and fell down like thick mud, completely burying the five or six islands controlled by the Buggy Pirates.

Because there was so much dust, it seemed to have life. It piled up madly at the foot of the red soil continent, layer after layer, and gradually formed a small continent.

This small continent is like a huge puzzle, connecting the islands originally scattered in the New World near the foot of the red soil continent, forming a vast land.

This sudden disaster plunged the entire Buggy Pirates into confusion and bewilderment.

They had no idea what was going on and how to handle the situation.

In this disaster, the Buggy Pirates also suffered considerable losses, and many pirates were unfortunately killed or injured.

However, most of these casualties were concentrated among the pirates who remained on the island.

After all, when the dust fell from the sky, they were the first to be hit and could not escape in time.

However, the Buggy Pirates will not let their losses go to waste so easily.

They have always adhered to the concept that nothing can be given in vain, and naturally they cannot let the 100, 000 pirates under their command be supported in vain.

So, the Buggy Pirates came up with a brilliant idea - let these pirates do the courier business while they are pirates, which is the so-called "Baki Express".

In this way, not only can the human resources of these pirates be fully utilized, but Buggy can also earn a steady stream of money.

The reason why Buggy can carry out this side business so confidently is, on the one hand, because he is one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea and has the backing of the World Government; on the other hand, he has two powerful royal fathers - Hawkeye Mihawk and Crocodile - supporting him behind the scenes.

With such a background and strength, Bucky naturally doesn't have to worry about anyone coming to disrupt or compete.

In the entire Buggy Pirates, no one dared to have the slightest thought of resisting Buggy.

The pirates who were expelled from the Rockefeller Kingdom were filled with fear and helplessness. They did not dare to challenge Buggy's authority easily, and they had lost their original retreat.

Therefore, they had no choice but to obey Bucky's orders.

The composition of these pirates is very complex, and most of them are remnants from the New World.

Some of them are the remnants of the pirate groups that were wiped out by the Rockefeller Kingdom, some are businessmen whose property was confiscated by the kingdom, and some are ordinary pirates who have lived in the New World for many years.

The New World has been in chaos for hundreds of years, and many people have long been accustomed to this pirate lifestyle.

However, the Rockefeller Kingdom is now determined to eliminate all pirates, which will undoubtedly cut off their way of survival.
