Grab the dark fruit right in front of Blackbeard

Although Arlong in Cocoyasi Village was solved.

But new problems arise.

Arlong. How to deal with it?

Nami and Nojiko didn't know what to do either.

The two women turned their attention to Ravan.

Ravan's idea was simple.

Although 500 million Baileys were obtained from the Arlong Pirates, who would think that money is too much?

Looking at the entire East Blue, it's not too low. Isn't 20 million Baileys money? The truth is that a little adds up to a lot.

Under the expectant gazes of the two women, Ravan gave a four-word answer:

"Throw it to Marine!"

Nojiko and Nami looked at each other.

'Leave it to Marine?'

Although Arlong had an affair with Marine, but that's just a secret deal with Nezumi!

Marine couldn't be any better. There are still many honest people inside.

If not thrown to Marine, Arlong will make a comeback one day.

Ravan was gone.

What should the people in Cocoyasi Village do?

It seems that this is the most suitable place to deal with Arlong.

...........

A few days later.

When Marine's warship sailed into the port of Cocoyasi Village.

After seeing the people on the warship from afar, Ravan had a playful smile on his face: "Haha, an old acquaintance is here!"

"Ravan, do you know him?" Nami asked curiously.

"I know!" Ravan replied.

On the corridor of the warship, a man and a woman walked down.

The man had a cigarette in his mouth, and the smoke was curling up.

He looked around. He had white hair and a few wrinkles on his face. He looked to be in his thirties.

He was wearing the uniform of Captain Marine, and the badges on his chest were particularly dazzling, taking a goose step, sonorous and powerful, stepping on the deck stairs, his voice can be heard in the stairs.

The person who came was none other than Smoker, one of the current Marine captains, yes, the same position as the Rat.

But the difference is that Smoker hates these moths in Marine the most, and basically has no good feelings towards Captain Nezumi, a guy who eats everything inside and outside.

Now he is stationed in Loguetown, the town where Pirate King Roger started and ended.

On strength.

Not to mention the huge East Blue.

Even among Marines, Smoker ranks high!

Next to Smoker is a woman wearing a regular green shirt and black trousers. The clothing is not too tight, but it also outlines her figure in an orderly manner.

There is a sword hanging on her waist, a pair of glasses on his face, and his long black hair is like a waterfall, and she looks a little natural.

She is Smoker's assistant and the second-in-command of the Marine branch in Loguetown, Tashigi!

Ravan held the unconscious Arlong in his hands and looked at the two people walking down from the ship.

(Tl: This guy actually ripped off fishmen's heads and gutted Nezumi, but didn't kill Arlong? Sometimes I can't even understand what the MLT writers are thinking.)

When he was in the Whitebeard Pirates.

Ravan has already fought against Smoker!

Ravan was not that strong at that time, and Smoker was also just a Marine recruit.

The two of them can be said to be evenly matched.

Years passed.

He obtained the Dark Fruit and left the Whitebeard Pirates!

Smoker also thrived in Marine and has become a Marine Captain guarding one town!

"Captain Smoker, is that guy Ravan?"

On the side, Tashigi pushed up his glasses and looked at Ravan nervously.

It is different from the world where news is closed.

Regarding Ravan's "killing" of Team 4 Captain Thatch and taking away the Devil Fruit, this matter caused too much trouble in the New World!

Who doesn't know what this guy has done?

The news was also delivered to East Blue Marine with lightning speed, and was captured by Smoker.

At first, for such news, Smoker scoffed. Although it was due to position reasons in the early years. He and Ravan were in a state of opposition.

Smoker was lucky enough to have several contacts with Ravan. Not to mention they feel sympathy for each other, but they also share the same goals!

It's a pity because of identity reasons, the two of them can't have fun over wine!

But as the news spread, it spread wider and wider.

Even the Whitebeard Pirates issued a kill order for Ravan, and even issued a reward order to the outside world.

Only then did Smoker realize the seriousness of the problem.

I found out after asking around that Ravan really betrayed the Whitebeard Pirates! And he was hunted down by the Whitebeard Pirates everywhere in the New World.

Smoker looked at the newspaper in front of him.

Regardless of Thatch's influence in the New World, he is the captain of the fourth division of the Whitebeard Pirates and a well-known figure in the New World.

Just like Baibeard's attitude of loving his subordinates like his own son.

He would never let Ravan go so easily!

Not to mention far away Ace, the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates, had already embarked on the journey searching for Ravan all over the world.

That's why Smoker used to pay attention to New World newspapers for a while! He want to see where Ravan is, but there has been no news.

Never expected it. Today. In the East Blue sea. In this Cocoyasi Village.

He met this guy who turned New World upside down!

"Not only are you capable of causing trouble, but you are also not very capable of hiding, and you even ended up in the East Blue!"

Smoker walked up to Ravan, looked him up and down, and said in a cold voice.

"I can't help it, something like this happened!"

Ravan replied with a smile.

"Why did you suddenly show up again this time?"

Smoker asked.

"I have no money!"

Ravan shook the unconscious Arlong in his hand, and continued: "Catch a pirate to make some money, and I'll give you a boost of performance by the way!"

"So, you still want me to thank you?"

"That's not necessary. If possible, I don't mind going through the back door. If you give me a little more bounty for him, I want to accept it!"

"Hmph, don't think that just by saying nice things, I can help you. You are now a pirate. If I could, do you believe that I could capture you now and redeem the 1.5 billion beli?!"

The Whitebeard Pirates offer a reward of one billion!

Although Whitebeard wanted to meet Ravan, but he can't stand the people below who are so disgusted. And Blackbeard's secret fire! The crew members of the White Group were very angry.

Not only has the reward of one billion Baileys not decreased, it has even continued to increase as time goes by.

Because after Whitebeard issued the bounty order, Marine followed suit and placed a bounty of 500 million beli on him.

In other words. If someone could split Ravan in two.

You can receive a reward of 1.5 billion!

Of course. This is just a hypothesis!

"One hundred... one and a half billion?"

Nami and Nojiko had been standing aside for a long time.

By observing the two chatting.

The two of them could roughly guess that Colonel Marine knew Ravan.

You can follow Smoker to throw Ravan's bounty.

Nami and Nojiko's mouths suddenly opened into an "O" shape.

"This, this, this..."

Arlong, who has a bounty of 20 million beli, is already the ceiling of their imagination.

They really can't imagine what kind of strong people those who offer a reward of more than 100 million are!

Didn't expect that.

Ravan's reward. Not only has it exceeded 100 million. It's even as high as 1.5 billion!!!

Oh my gosh!

How many Arlongs is this worth?!

The sun shone on Ravan's face, shining brightly under the scorching sun. Under Smoker's heavy gaze, Ravan slowly raised his head and said softly:

"You can try it?!"
