Chapter 115
Crocodile is very clever and didn't mention "Pirate Alliance", but only said the last two words.
He doesn't know why, but in short, Lynn Barek has always emphasized that he is a wanted criminal or a criminal, not Pirate.
Is there a difference between the two?
Crocodile is helpless, but he also knows Lynn Barek's character, always tangled in such useless places.
However, in order to ensure that his plan can proceed smoothly, he can only follow Lynn's temperament, so Crocodile only said two words:
Alliance.
"Alliance?"
Lynn hearing this was taken aback, pointed at Crocodile, and then at himself, with a look of confusion and said: "You mean to form an alliance with me "
"That's right."
Crocodile nodded, it doesn't look like a half-separated joke
"What an unexpected plan." Lynn thought for a moment. , Finally asked: "The reason, I want to listen to the reason."
Crocodile smoked a cigar and said with a smile gloomily: "Water 7 is very big, and the terrain is extremely complicated. Finding the blueprint is very difficult. You don’t want to spend your entire life looking for the Dark King blueprint on that island, right? Many people have more power, and more people have more power!"
hearing this, Lynn Yi He said nothing, just stared at Crocodile.
After a while, the two laughed heartily at the same time.
Lynn clutched his belly, said with a big smile: "Yellow, it's so funny when you open your eyes and talk nonsense!"
"he he he he ah, Really? I think so too." Crocodile smoked his cigar.
Lynn asked again: "So what is the real reason?"
"There are many reasons for me to choose the alliance."
Crocodile replied "First of all, I judged that it is not a wise choice to fight with you before getting the Dark King blueprints. That would be too risky for you and me."
Lynn thought for a while and felt Crocodile makes some sense.
They are now at sea, and both of them are powerful Devil Fruit Ability Users, and they will surely affect their surroundings in battle.
Once the war starts, there is a high probability that their ships will be destroyed. When the time comes, both people can only rely on luck to survive, let alone go to Water 7 to find the Dark King blueprints.
When they arrived at Water 7, the primary purpose was of course the Dark King design, so naturally there was no time to fight.
In short, before one of the parties found the Dark King blueprint, Lynn and Crocodile had no reason to fight. At the same time, the cost of the battle was extremely high and it was not worthwhile at all.
"What about the second point?" Lynn asked again.
"Second."
Crocodile smiled slowly and said: "I just said that I found this clue from the old monster base camp of Golden Lion. So where did this clue Golden Lion come from?"
Lynn was taken aback, and after thinking for a while, the answer was ready to come out.
Marine? !
Not necessarily, it may be the top level of World Government.
In the previous battle, Golden Lion knew exactly the weakness of Crocodile's fruit, and the only forces that knew exactly that weakness were Marine and World Government.
In other words, it may be a corrupt official, or it may be Marine's internal correspondent, but in short, Golden Lion has a secret source of intelligence in Marine or World Government's high-level officials!
He got clues about the Dark King design from Marine or World Government, so on the other hand, the clues of Dark King design must have been mastered by Marine or World Government!
Lynn couldn’t help her pupils shrinking, forced a smile and said: "It seems that the Dark King design has been targeted by the World Government!"
"he he he he, That's it."
Crocodile gloomy said with a smile: "According to the World Government's style of doing things, they should now have spies inserted into every corner of Water 7, just because they can't find Dark. The specific location of the King’s design drawing, this is not hands-on."
hearing this, Lynn’s browse tightly knit, silently pondering:
If the truth is exactly what Crocodile said, then For Lynn himself, this alliance will have a "huge advantage" that cannot be ignored!
On the other hand, Crocodile also continued to add: "If you want to find the Dark King design in that environment, it is impossible to do it by one person, so we need to cooperate."
Lynn took a few sips of water and asked: "How to cooperate?"
"It's very simple."
Crocodile replied: "As a Shichibukai who cooperates with the World Government, You can go to many places you can't go, and at the same time, you can cover your actions. When we turn on and off, we have a greater chance of finding the Dark King design."
"Find the Dark King design first. , And then grab it by ability, how about?" Crocodile said with a smile, dangling his cigar.
"Well," Lynn slightly nodded, "Let me think about..."
"He he he he, of course, Lynn Barek, after all, this is an'alliance'. "Crocodile was smoking a cigar and waiting quietly.
The two fell silent at the same time.
Contrary to the silence on the surface, both of them were thinking about this alliance at this time, conceiving their own plans!
For Crocodile, from the very beginning, he didn't think anyone could quietly take away the Dark King design under the nose of World Government.
At the end of the matter, 90% probability will evolve into a head-on conflict with World Government agents!
Therefore, in order to ensure that after getting the Dark King design drawing, it can be taken away smoothly and will not be targeted by the World Government, Crocodile needs a "bigger" goal to attract the attention of the World Government.
That person is Lynn Barek who once declared war on Celestial Dragon head-on, making the World Government disgraced!
Crocodile needs Lynn to be his ally.
On the one hand, it is to find the Dark King design drawing more conveniently, and on the other hand, after discovering the Dark King design drawing, Lynn can attract the attention of the World Government and make it easier to get away.
Lynn, on the other hand, is thinking about another thing.
Crocodile makes sense. There are bound to be many World Government agents in Water 7. His Shichibukai identity can bring a lot of convenience to Lynn, so the alliance does have many benefits.
As for apart from this, Lynn also holds a huge advantage that Crocodile does not know about, that is, the specific owner of the Dark King design.
Lynn, based on the information he knows and the clues revealed in Crocodile’s previous words, can judge that at this time, the World Government has not investigated that Fishman Tom is the owner of the Dark King blueprint.
Therefore, Crocodile also didn't know where the Dark King design was in Water 7, so it said "Looking for the Dark King design".
This crucial information gap gives Lynn a lot of room to play in this alliance.
Thinking of this, Lynn also made up his mind.
He extended his right hand to Crocodile, grinning said with a smile: "So, ally?"
"he he he he," Crocodile also extended his right hand , Nodded confirmed: "Allies."
Crocodile needs Lynn to attract the attention of World Government so that he can get away afterwards;
Lynn needs Crocodile to interfere with World Government’s eyeline in Water 7. You can take the opportunity to contact Fishman Tom.
Two thoughtful people held each other's hands, with kind smiles on their faces.
So far--
[BOSS] Lynn · Barek, and, [Crocodile] Crocodile.
The alliance was established.
……
At this moment, what both Lynn and Crocodile don’t know is that their alliance this time was later designated as the major event that shocked the world. The prologue.
