Whether it is the earth world or the One Piece World, this is the same. The difference is that the degree of danger to the sea and the environment in the world of One Piece far exceeds that of the former. Fortunately, the Crow Pirates also have a decent navigator at the helm, which can minimize the dangers encountered in sailing.
After the Crow Pirates had completed their supplies in Dark Town, they began to march towards the Great Route.
At this time, Carter, the first mate of the Crow Pirates, was hesitating to stand in front of a door. If someone came face to face with him, it would be easy to see the hesitation mixed with excitement on his face.
Squeak.
The door was opened from the inside, and Xiao Bai walked out from the inside with a smile.
“Is it already here?” Xiao Bai’s voice was still very gentle.
With a sudden jump in his heart, Carter, who had packed up his mood, bowed his head and lowered his head, staring only at Xiao Bai’s feet, and said respectfully: “Yes, you can already see the shadow of Upside down Mountain.”
“Then, let’s go.” Xiao Bai smiled and stepped out.
Looking at Xiao Bai, who was moving forward, Carter hurriedly chased him up and followed him step by step.
After getting along these days, Carter and the crew of the Crow Pirate Group who succumbed to Xiao Bai have greatly improved their impression of their captain. Although there is still awe and fear of Xiao Bai in his heart, it is far less pure and strong than it was at the beginning.
Compared to Jadley, who has all the characteristics of most pirates such as cunning, insidious, violent and unscrupulous, Xiao Bai feels like two diametrically opposite extremes, or, Jadley can be regarded as a pirate, while Xiao Bai is more like a simple adventurer.
There was no intention to rob the lone merchant ships in the past, which was almost unimaginable to Carter and the others. In the North Sea, which pirate would let go of such a lone merchant ship? Can a pirate who does not aim at robbery be regarded as a pirate?
The only thing that made Carter feel slightly at ease was that the new head who had accepted all the wealth of the Iron Hook Pirates and the One-horned Shark Pirates seemed to have a richer net worth than he thought. At least for a long time in the future, there is no need to worry too much about the lack of Bailey.
Of course, that doesn’t mean they can just sit back and relax. Judging from the new bounty orders and newspapers dropped by the newspaper delivery bird, the bounty of the new head of the family has skyrocketed to 40 million Baileys. Carter didn’t know how many pirates at this bounty price were on the Great Route, but in the North Sea, the bounty at this price was definitely terrifying.
It is different from the era of widespread runaway out of control more than ten years later. The power of the world government has been weakened to an extreme by the oppression of the four emperors, pirates, and the increasingly threatening revolutionary army, whose territory has been stabilized and expanded. The so-called in order to maximize the stability of the world and the orderly rule of the world government, a new pirate would often be crowned with a high bounty at that time, in order to obtain the support of neutral people, such as bounty hunters and other forces.
Although the current situation has collapsed and more and more pirates are going to sea, the navy, which is still faintly in the palm of its hand, still has a certain amount of power for the time being, and can still arrest and chase pirates on a large scale. Most of the time, a new generation of naval elites who are in the mature stage do not need, and are ashamed to use too many external forces, to be able to chase down most of the pirates.
In an era when order still exists and is stable, the value of currency is always higher than that in an era when chaos is sprouting and people feel precarious. In other words, the bounty offered in this era is higher than the gold content more than ten years later.
Bounty, when the bounty amount is high to a certain extent, this bounty is just a number of mostly symbolic significance. Except for being able to indicate the strength and danger of the owner being offered a reward, there is no other use.
Indeed, bounty is not equivalent to strength. But apart from Bucky, who is full of luck in the future, most of the pirates with bounty of hundreds of millions have two things. And those with a bounty of 300 million to 500 million, 100% of them have strong abilities and strength. Because of the lack of strength, it has long been solved by the navy and pirate hunters. Bucky didn’t get into the car of the protagonist, Straw Hat Luffy, and he couldn’t escape from the Deep Sea Prison.
For those pirate kings with a bounty of more than 500 million, even the navy that has issued a bounty, they will not expect that one day, someone who has almost stagnated these bounty increases will be brought to justice and sent to the navy. It’s like the chaos at the moment, the new world where the big pirates are fighting for the land everywhere, who would dare to harvest pirate emperors such as Whitebeard for those bounties? Even if someone really does it, how likely is it to succeed?
For example, Whitebeard, as a world government organized by a coalition of nearly two hundred countries in the world, can it really not be able to spend billions to reward such a person? If it is possible, I believe that the marshal of the navy at this time must be very happy to pay a price of billions or even tens of billions of Baileys to kill all the pirate kings active in the new world one by one, even if this will put the navy into a state of economic constraints for a period of time.
It is also because the Navy knows very well that simply increasing the bounty will have little effect on the top pirate emperors who have become the climate, and will not benefit much, and will not pose any major threat. Therefore, the bounty of those top pirate emperors and dangerous people will be fixed at this moment. Unless one of them does something that shakes the world again, the bounty that has stagnated its increase will rise again.
In the era of Roger, the navy desperately chased Gore Roger, the golden lion, the white Beard, and many dangerous big pirates on the sea, and it was also the era of the peak of the navy. After the death of Gore Roger, the navy inevitably went from its peak to loneliness.
In the heyday of the Warring States Period and Karp, they could almost force characters such as the pirate King Gore Roger to their deaths several times. But at this moment, facing the Raging Pirate Frenzy, all they can do is to try their best to maintain it, gradually retreat, and even finally have to set up Qiwuhai, a position that means incompetence and shame in the navy, to maintain a balance with the pirate emperor.
As for chasing down the pirate emperors of the new world like chasing Gore, Roger, and the Golden Lion, the heyday of that kind has passed. The current navy can still compete with those pirate emperors in the new world for a while. However, as the number of pirates has skyrocketed, there are more and more pirate groups in the new world, and the navy has to make some kind of choice.
