Chapter 255 Alliance
Chapter 255 Alliance
Beckman said in confusion: "I have another question to ask."
"Just say it."
"As far as I know, you are a cautious person. Why are you in such a hurry to challenge the Four Emperors?" Beckman went straight to the point. "What benefits will this do to you?"
This is also what puzzles Beckman the most. As a red-haired crew member, he is not opposed to letting Shanks help Oden avenge himself. But he had to figure out what Profik could gain from this cooperation. Otherwise, he always feels that he cannot feel at ease.
As a newcomer, Profik had no reason to challenge a Yonko. It is true that there are many newcomers who aim to become the "Pirate King" and want to bring down the Yonko-level pirates as soon as they enter the new world, but Profik doesn't look like that kind of fool.
Although from Beckman's point of view, Profik's plan seemed very thorough and indeed possible to succeed. But even so, he got nothing. The name of the Four Emperors? The territory of Wano Country? Want to get these things,
As for being the King of the Shichibukai, he has to work hard for the World Government and bring down one of the Four Emperors. If Profik really thinks so, then there is no difference between him and His Highness Oden.
You can't really work for peace on the sea, right?
Facing the brain trust of the red-haired pirates, Profic did not hide his true intentions: "It's very simple, we have serious conflicts with the 'Beasts Pirates'. If we can't get rid of Kaido, I guess we won't be able to sleep at night." I can’t sleep anymore!”
Not being able to sleep is just one aspect. More importantly, if a "madman" like Kaido is left in the new world, and he is also a "madman" who has a grudge against himself, it is estimated that the territory of "Dawn" will not be able to develop with peace of mind in the future.
Serious conflict?
Beckman frowned. He knew about Yati's death at the hands of Profik. One of the important reasons why this incident has spread so widely is that the World Government has promoted it as the achievement of "The King's Shichibukai". As for whether this will cause trouble for Profik, government officials don't care.
This statement seems reasonable at first glance, but it is worthy of scrutiny if you think about it carefully.
In Enter the Dragon in the New World, let alone a cadre-level master, even a captain-level master like Kaido may not be able to guarantee his own safety. As for whether he will cause trouble for Profik because a cadre personally came to his door, it is completely unknown.
"I'm afraid that's not enough?"
"As expected of the vice-captain of the Red-haired Pirates... To be honest, just a few days before arriving at this island, we had a conflict with the men of the Beast Pirates on Detrick Island. 'Big Sign' Quinn has suffered a loss in our hands, and I guess Kaido will come looking for him soon."
When talking to smart people, you can't be secretive and let the other party know your purpose, so that both parties can truly achieve cooperation.
Sure enough, Beckman reluctantly put aside his suspicion of Profik and finally agreed to form an alliance with Profik.
Then, Profik told Shanks a very important thing - contact Rayleigh.
Profic knew Raleigh, and the relationship between the two was pretty good, but he couldn't get Raleigh to trust him or even ask him to take action. It is necessary to ask someone who has a deeper relationship with Rayleigh to come forward to ensure that nothing goes wrong. Shanks can fulfill this role very well.
The reason why we must be so cautious is to ensure that Rayleigh is willing to come forward, or at least be willing to listen to him talk about Oden's situation. Moreover, Rayleigh also plays another key role in Profik's plan - to invite Whitebeard to come out.
Shanks soon brought news of Rayleigh. Sure enough, there is a phone bug between the two of them.
According to Shanks, Rayleigh did not directly agree to help. He still had doubts about Oden being killed by Kaido. However, he agreed to come to the New World to hear what Profik had to say in person, and at the same time, he also used his "connections" to determine whether what Profik said was true.
However, it will take a while to get from the Shampoo Islands to the New World and back again.
Until then, Shanks has other things to do. He had to leave the Food Island - the Vice Admiral on the island already knew what happened at the "Food Competition" and began to search the island. Although he wasn't afraid of a lieutenant general, Shanks didn't want to get into unnecessary trouble.
The same is true for Profik. Although he is the King of the Shichibukai, he is still with Shanks. At this time, it is inevitable that you will not be able to explain clearly when you meet the navy. Moreover, he still had things to do, so although he felt sorry for his friends who wanted to continue enjoying the food, he really did not intend to stay on this island any longer.
As for the pirates such as Tetsuo and Katakuri, they had already left the Food Island without stopping after the food competition. Especially Katakuri, as a senior official under the Four Emperors, would be easily targeted by the navy and other forces once he left his own sphere of influence.
Originally, Profic wanted to part ways with Shanks. He was going to Happy Street and asked "Queen of Joy" Stussy to explain some things.
But when he heard that Shanks was going to a small island to find "Eagle Eye" Mihawk, Profik decisively chose to follow him. If Mihawk can be fooled into joining the battle, it will be another big help, which may not be less than what Stussy can do.
Moreover, he did not forget his job of inviting "The King's Shichibukai". Unlike the redhead who was never likely to become a Shichibukai, Mihawk had always been one of Profik's true targets.
Now that they have formed an alliance and the relationship between the two parties is good, Shanks can't stop it, so he allows the Beaver to follow the Red Forth.
Taking advantage of the opportunity of traveling together, Profic invited Major General Shanks to the Beaver to hold a banquet together. Shanks likes to drink, and coincidentally, Danjuma also has the same hobby. Although Danjuma is far from Shanks in terms of strength, his drinking capacity is not inferior at all, and he knocked Shanks down on the wine table several times.
Occasionally, Shanks would also invite him aboard the Proficon Dored Firth, and whenever this was the case, it was Lucky Road's time to show off. He always strives to make the best dishes to entertain his benefactors.
The relationship between the two parties also became familiar.
Profik took this opportunity to ask Shanks for advice on Haki.
It's a pity that although Shanks' Haki is strong, he doesn't seem to have any knack. I don't know if his "teaching ability" is limited or if he is hiding something. What he said is nothing more than that if he works hard and improves his courage, he will naturally improve his domineering power.
