Pirate: Eternal

Vlad didn't know about the actions of the major forces. He only learned about the huge tsunami at the Navy Headquarters through Gleason and others.

Grissom and others returned to the Navy headquarters before their vacation was over, and were forcibly summoned back by the Warring States Period.

Vlad's daily life consisted of optimizing the entertainment venues in the rainland while waiting for good news from Gleason and the others, which was quite interesting.

However, the information published in the newspaper made Vlad feel sad for a while. After all, this incident was also caused by him. Although there was no deception, there was also an element of concealment in it.

"Would you like to help them?"

Vlad looked at the picture of Ace in the newspaper and hesitated for a moment, then crumpled the newspaper into a ball and threw it into the trash can.

"How can I be a mere little character? Ace, I will pray to the devil for you. I pray that you can survive. Amen!"

"What is he talking about again?"

On the side, Paine, who was making golden flowers with Marcus, Cervantes, Gal Dino and others, turned his head and glanced at Vlad. Then, while everyone's attention was diverted, he secretly reached out and handed the trump card to him. Replaced with a flush.

Even if they provide the venue to Happy Street, you still have to pay to play. He, the great master Paine, has started to take advantage of others to make money again.

Snapped!

Cervantes immediately slapped Paine's hand and scolded: "It's a trick, it's a trick. Can you have some technical skills?"

"According to the rules of the sea, those who cheat will have their hands chopped off!"

"Compensation ten times the bet!"

Several other people reacted and started to criticize Pan. The more they talked, the more angry they became, and they started to search him.

In the confusion, Cervantes threw his 235 of different suits into the card pile, then clapped his hands and sat next to Vlad, picked up the watermelon and started watching the show.

at this time......

blue blue-

The phone bug in Vlad's arms rang.

After the call was connected, Vlad didn't rush to speak. He waited for the caller to imitate the other person's appearance before greeting him warmly.

"Hello Dover, how have you been lately?"

"Dear friend, I have encountered some troubles recently and would like to ask for your help."

The phone bug imitated Doflamingo's headache, without even exchanging pleasantries, and went straight to the point.

Vlad was stunned and said warily: "You are asking me to borrow money, right? My treasury was recently visited by a thief. I am very poor!"

"..."

Doflamingo was silent for a while, and then spoke again after a long pause.

"No, have you heard of Charlotte Cracker?"

"Charlotte Cracker? The son of the Fourth Emperor Charlotte Lingling?"

"Yes! Because of my role as an intermediary, Charlotte Lingling came to me a long time ago and asked me to help introduce a scientist to study how to turn ordinary humans into giants.

I introduced her to Caesar Courant, a former member of the World Government Science Class. His research has progressed very well over the years, and everyone collaborated happily.

But just recently, Caesar has been complaining about lack of funds, and the progress of research has been stagnant for almost a year, which made Charlotte Lingling very dissatisfied and turned her anger on me.

Now Charlotte Lingling has sent his son Charlotte Cracker to teach me a lesson, and I need a friend to help me out of this trouble. "

"Hiss! The Four Emperors!"

After figuring out what happened, Vlad took a breath.

"Dover, I promised to help you solve your troubles and I will definitely do it, but the other party is the Four Emperors..."

After saying this, Vlad fell silent, and when Doflamingo was dissatisfied, he suddenly said something again.

"I have to pay more!"

"..."

Finally, after some bargaining, Doflamingo persuaded Vlad to solve his trouble for him at the cost of a thousand 'koro' gas bombs and [-] million beli.

After hanging up the phone, Vlad nodded to Cervantes and asked him to save the temporary recording, and then began to think about why Doflamingo did what he did.

In the anime plot, Doflamingo lost to Luffy, and Luffy defeated Cracker, so Doflamingo and Cracker are basically on the same level.

However, without the anime plot of fighting monsters and upgrading, in reality Doflamingo may not be easy, but he can definitely defeat Cracker.

Why did so many flamenco spend so much money to let Vlad deal with the Crackers?

"Divert attention!"

Vlad concluded.

Doflamingo can beat Krakow, but not the Yonko Charlotte Lingling. Even if he has an unclear relationship with another Yonko Kaido, Kaido will obviously not do it for Doflamingo. Turning against Charlotte Lingling.

Doflamingo needs an outside force to kill Charlotte Lingling's son to divert her attention. Although it is not a long-term solution, at least he can get through the immediate trouble.

"Looks like we need to keep the recording in case someone stabs us someday in the future."

Vlad knew very well that there were no permanent enemies and no permanent friends. Taking over the task of attacking and killing Cracker was equivalent to handing over a handle to Doflamingo.

If Doflamingo uses this to blackmail him in the future, he can turn around and give the recording to Charlotte Lingling to divert the hatred.

Harmfulness is not allowed, and defensiveness is indispensable.

perfect!

"I see that you are all too busy, so let's go to the new world!"

Vlad stood up, stopped Paine and others who were still fighting, and told them the next trip.

"We are going to assassinate this time. There are too many people and the target is too big. Statham and Pola, you should stay in Alabasta."

"Ok."

Statham nodded slightly disappointedly. He also wanted to do something as exciting as assassinating the Yonko cadres, but because Alabasta needed someone to guard it, he really couldn't leave.

Gar Dino, Pola, and Marianu breathed a sigh of relief. When Vlad said the words about assassinating the Yonko cadres, they almost became sick from fear.

Can't leave Alabasta's illness!

Immediately, Vlad took Paine, Cervantes, Marcus, and Ozma to pack their luggage, and then left Alabasta by boat through the newly opened canal, heading towards the New World.

There are two routes from Alabasta to the New World. Either go back against the current and enter the West Sea or North Sea through the Upside Down Mountain, and then cross the windless zone to enter the New World.

Either go forward along the route, first arrive at the Red Continent that divides the Grand Line, and enter the new world from the 'Maryjoia' above the Red Continent or the Fish-Man Island below.

With Vlad's current Dark Sky ability, he can suck the ship into the air, cross the Upside Down Mountain, enter the Western Sea, and then directly enter the new world through the windless zone.

In order to rush for time, Vlad decisively chose this method.
