Chapter 315 Start anew! [Hunter Association]! With [Hunter]
Chapter 315 Start anew! [Hunter Association]! Replace [Pirates] with [Hunters]!
Hunter's Guild Building.
When he just stood on the rooftop of the building, Cui Ze had not observed the building in detail.
It wasn't until the Destiny Pirates and his party set out from the open-air restaurant and got in close contact with this building that Cui Ze realized how old and dilapidated it was. Almost all the architectural layouts in sight could be hung with "New Year's Eve" signs.
"Long time in disrepair" sign.
"Isn't this place too shabby?"
Enel looked at the dilapidated environment of the Hunter Guild building and couldn't help but create a solid force field shield, carrying himself and floating into the air.
"Captain, if you really have your eye on this guild, do you want to regard this place as the hunter's nest? Do we also need to move our own base?"
"Of course not. The main base of our Destiny Pirates in the paradise is Gaya Island and the sky island above it... By the way, after the voyage to Hunter Island is over, we can take a trip back to Angel Island.
"
Cui Ze shook his head, glanced at the situation of the Hunter Guild building, and said casually.
"As for the base in the new world, we have to wait until we enter the new world...
"In addition, if we really absorb the Hunters Guild as our affiliated organization, or start a new Hunters Guild from scratch, its [Headquarters] will definitely be placed in the New World.
"Whether it is a powerful hunter or a powerful pirate, it needs a suitable environment to train and cultivate it."
Since entering the Hunter's Guild building, the Destiny Pirates and their group have not encountered any obstruction at all.
I don't know if it's because the Hunters Guild has ceased to exist in name only, or because no bounty hunter dares to intercept the King's Shichibukai.
Cui Ze and his party seemed to have stepped into an uninhabited and mysterious building.
It wasn't until they reached a spacious hall with a half-broken wooden sign hanging "Mission Hall" that Cui Ze and others finally saw a living person.
It was a lean old man sitting under the sign.
He wears a dark green fisherman's hat on top of his head. The wide brim makes it difficult to see the upper half of his face. There is a thick but messy short golden beard growing around his mouth. The other clothes on his body are also gray.
He jumped, leaning against his feet was a long flintlock gun.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the old man straightened his fisherman's hat and raised his eyes to look at the visitor. A trace of surprise flashed through his light blue eyes.
"Card Master? The newly promoted King Shichibukai?"
The old man stood up. His figure was similar to that of an ordinary person, neither tall nor low, but he exuded the iron-blooded and capable temperament of a veteran who has fought hundreds of battles.
"When you come to the Hunter Guild, are there any tasks that need to be issued?"
"Old man, are you the only one here?"
Enelu's figure flashed into lightning and suddenly appeared in front of the old man.
"Aren't you some kind of guild?"
"Things like the Hunters Guild have long since lost their binding force. Bounty hunters are naturally a group of guys who only care about money."
The old man did not show any shock at all because of the thunder and lightning in Enero, he just shrugged his shoulders.
"You can call me Bailey. Yes, it's the Bailey of money."
Co-author, you just said that other bounty hunters only look at money.
Is your name Bailey?
These inconsistent words made the members of the Destiny Pirates instantly have a deep impression of this old man.
"So, uh, Bailey?"
Enelu also looked at the old man strangely and asked curiously.
"What kind of hunter's guild is this? You're the only one in it?"
"Introduce yourself, hunter code name - Bailey."
The old man named "Pele" took off the fisherman's hat on his head, put it on his chest, and bowed slightly.
"The current president of the Hunter Guild is also the financial administrator, task publisher, and..."
Listen to this long list of titles from the other party.
Cui Ze, who had already obtained a lot of information about the Hunter Guild from Pride, suddenly felt even more disappointed.
No matter what he saw and heard along the way, or Mr. Bailey's multiple positions.
It can only prove one thing.
This old, dilapidated Hunter's Guild is no longer fit for purpose!
Start anew.
Almost inevitable!
Bailey is still talking about his title, and he has now reached the level of "warehouse manager".
At this moment, Cui Ze reached out and patted Enelu on the shoulder.
The latter took a step back with understanding and gave up his position to the captain.
"Mr. Bailey, you just seemed to say that we can issue tasks in the Hunter Guild?"
As soon as these words came out.
Bailey, who had been talking endlessly just now, suddenly had a flash of light in his eyes, a rich, money-rich light.
"Of course! Aren't real hunters just paid to do things?"
Bailey put the fisherman's hat back on his head, stretched out his right thumb and index finger, and gently rubbed it a few times. The meaning of this philistine action was self-evident.
“How much money you have can do a lot of things!”
"Yeah?"
Cui Ze raised his eyebrows.
"Then I offer 5 billion 46 million beli, can you bring me the head of Edward Newgate the Whitebeard?"
The reward amount for Whitebeard, the strongest man in the world, is exactly 5 billion 46 million Baileys!
"Stop joking like this!"
Bailey curled his lips, and his expression, which had been full of excitement just now, suddenly fell.
"If I can hunt that Whitebeard guy, why would I need to stay on Hunter Island and let myself rot slowly?"
Cui Ze looked at the veteran in front of him and felt that he was indeed an interesting person.
Hearing the name of Whitebeard, or even the act of hunting Whitebeard, there was no fear, fear, or panic that ordinary people should have.
But the main reason why Cui Ze is willing to communicate harmoniously with the other party.
Or his [Evil Sense] didn't sense any evil energy from the other party.
As a bounty hunter who works for money, this is enough!
"If that's the case, then I'll change my mission."
Cui Ze raised his hand and pointed at the ground below.
"I don't know much about the rules of hunters. If I hire Mr. Bailey, the president of the Hunter Guild and a long list of positions, to help establish a new [Hunter Association], how much will it cost?"
"New... [Hunter Association]?"
Bailey clenched his teeth and looked at the newly promoted Shichibukai in front of him with great confusion.
"Card Master, do you want to dig into the old foundation of our Hunter Guild?"
"'Your' Hunter Guild?"
Cui Ze laughed dumbly and raised his hand to gesture to the dilapidated environment around him.
He obviously didn't say anything.
But it seemed that he had finished speaking again.
"Ahem, okay! The current situation of the Hunter Guild is indeed not very good...and the development prospects are not very good either."
Bailey coughed slightly to cover up what he had just said.
"As for your mission...can I first hear your opinion on that [Hunter Association]?"
At this point, Bailey's tone paused slightly.
"After all, your Majesty Shichibukai, targeting bounty hunters like us, is not something that can only be done in a day or two."
"'We' Shichibukai?"
Cui Ze was really surprised at this moment.
"Besides me, is there anyone else who is interested in the fringe force of bounty hunters?"
"Of course it's that hero of Alabasta who's been praised so much in the newspapers—Sand Crocodile Crocodile!"
Bailey curled his lips with a look of disdain.
"Although I haven't gone out for activities for a long time, I still have some contact information with old friends.
"Although Crocodile never made a public statement, the newspapers never mentioned such a trivial thing.
"But ever since that guy became the King of the Shichibukai, large numbers of bounty hunters have gathered in Alabasta, and were then sent to the Whiskey Peak in the initial stage of the park, specifically to hunt those who came from all over the world and had just entered the great world.
A new pirate on the route.”
Hearing Bailey's words, Cui Ze couldn't help but touch his chin.
This information...
He was indeed ignored!
Whiskey Peak is not on Cui Ze’s sailing route.
But it is the first island the Straw Hat Pirates arrived after entering the Grand Line!
If Cui Ze remembers correctly.
Whiskey Peak is indeed an island populated by bounty hunters.
In fact, it is a subsidiary branch of Baroque Studio!
"That Sand Crocodile guy... actually thought of joining me."
"So Card Master, your thoughts are the same as those of Sand Crocodile?"
Bailey asked softly, but there was a trace of imperceptible loss in his eyes.
"Recruit bounty hunters to deal with those fledgling pirates?"
"Of course not!"
Cui Ze shook his head.
"According to what I just told the other members of the pirate group, 'clean' hunters are very suitable to replace pirates."
The disappointed emotion in Bailey's eyes disappeared instantly. He looked at the other party in shock.
The answer given by the card master was thousands of times better than the best answer he expected!
Use hunters to replace pirates?
What kind of genius idea is this!?
Bailey couldn't wait to ask: "Can you tell me more about it?"
Yixiao and others, who had been listening silently, also looked at their captain curiously.
They were curious about this issue when they were just in the open-air restaurant, but unfortunately the captain did not explain it in detail at that time.
Feeling the curious eyes around him, Cui Ze coughed lightly.
"Since everyone is so concerned about this issue, let me briefly talk about the types of hunters."
Cui Ze first raised his hand and pointed at Bailey.
"Those who work purely for money and specialize in catching bounty pirates or other wanted criminals can be regarded as [bounty hunters]."
Bailey blinked. He had an inexplicable feeling that the Card Master's next words were probably from the Hunter Guild——
No!
This is the true development direction of the [Hunter Association]!
Cui Ze continued: "Except [Bounty Hunter].
“There are also [food hunters] who are specially used to discover delicious food and study cooking skills;
"[Music Hunter] who specializes in collecting and protecting music-related things;
"A [treasure hunter] who specializes in discovering the world's treasures... blah blah blah."
Bailey felt that his breathing had become extremely heavy.
The card master's words simply opened the door to a new world for him!
"Even though it sounds a little weird when I say that..."
Bailey took off his fisherman's hat again and made an almost 180-degree sincere bow towards Cui Ze.
“Please be sure to let me join the [Hunter Association]!
“Even if I don’t give you money!”
The members of the Destiny Pirates couldn't help but smile at Bailey's performance.
No one thought of it.
A man named "Pele" could actually say "It doesn't matter if you don't give me money"!
Fat Tiger "looked" at Cui Ze with great emotion.
Through this small "Hunter Association", he thought he had seen Cui Ze's belief in justice.
'Pirates? Sure enough, not! They are the Shichibukai recognized by the World Government!'
