Chapter 121 The Seven Warriors Sea
"Who told you this! I'm telling you, don't give me this set, and try to hide it? No way! Please explain to me quickly what do you mean by this!?"
"This..., then you have to tell me clearly what it is?" Zhan Guo winked as if he was a little embarrassed.
"You're still pretending to be cool with me?!"
Zefa looked around angrily, picked up a newspaper from a table, and pointed his finger at the headline of 'The King's Shichibukai'.
"Don't think that I won't read the newspaper when I'm training students, and it actually says that the Navy has officially recognized it!? Forget those old guys from the World Government, do our Navy have to ask those seamen?
Is the thief showing weakness!?"
Zefa asked excitedly.
"Be careful! We cannot question the World Government's decisions casually!" Seeing this, Warring States could only say seriously with a straight face.
"This is a resolution personally issued by the Five Old Stars. It quite directly represents the entire world government. As a subordinate organization, the Navy cannot tolerate our rejection!"
Looking at Zefa's still gloomy face, he sighed helplessly.
"Actually, this plan has been drawn up by the World Government a few years ago. As a naval admiral, I naturally got some information from Marshal Kong."
"? I'm not a general! Then you didn't resolutely oppose it!? How can we recruit filthy scum like pirates!? This will only harm the whole world!"
"Of course I have raised a lot of questions to Marshal Kong, but your understanding of the 'Shichibukai' plan is too one-sided. In fact..."
The so-called "Shichibukai", that is, "King Shichibukai", means that they are the seven great pirates recognized by the world government. Only pirates who are well-known or powerful enough to intimidate everyone are qualified to be selected.
At the same time as he becomes the 'King Shichibukai', the original wanted order will be stopped, and the World Government will no longer pursue all the crimes committed before.
Even if members of the "Shichibukai" engage in privateering, they will be acquiesced by the World Government, but they will still need to pay tribute if they are discovered.
In addition, in order to maintain this "cooperative relationship", the world government will also allow some of their "individual requests" to be agreed to within a certain range.
However, this 'cooperative relationship' is essentially just a relationship of mutual utilization.
The World Government uses their strength and prestige to deter and combat ordinary pirates, thereby effectively curbing the current proliferation of pirates.
In fact, this kind of policy has been adopted by many countries in the history of the earth.
Hire pirates from your own country to do things for you, rob merchant ships from other countries, and supplement yourself, and your credibility will not be affected. It's like killing two birds with one stone. The benefits are not too many!
This is the case with the rather famous Francis Drake. By the way, I specifically refer to the star pioneer with scars on his face and particularly plump breasts.
Correspondingly, the benefits actually paid by the world government are not very many, which is equivalent to a seemingly huge empty promise.
However, it is indeed a huge convenience to just agree that the navy will not attack the Shichibukai, and also provide them with various legal rights. Of course, they can also let go of the islands and forces behind them.
