The Pirate Garen

After accepting the epic task of saving the kingdom of Alabasta from Princess Vivi, Galen and Nami are on the loose.

Leave Princess Weiwei aside.

Because there are too many trivial facts after eradicating the Creek Pirates:

Nami is responsible for checking the books of the Creek Pirates and counting the confiscated property;

The size of the Creek Pirates is not in the same order as the Dragon Pirates, and its economic size is almost the same as that of a small country.

While counting the money, Nami's hands cramped, and she was also dizzy and her feet didn't touch the ground.

And Galen, as the leader who was naturally elected by the laborers, was also inseparable from him in handling all the big and small matters during the suppression process.

Galen had never been an administrator before. Fortunately, he also had Dexter, an experienced former mayor, who was in charge of administrative affairs and dealt with a lot of trivial matters for Galen.

However, there are still some important matters that need to be decided by Galen himself:

Standing on the wide square in front of the Creek mansion, Dexter said to Galen:

"Master Galen, the suppression operation is over!"

"According to statistics, the death toll of pirates is more than 550, and the exact number has yet to be verified; some pirates escaped from the island by boat in the chaos, and it is difficult to count the number."

"There are more than 1,000 people in the Creek Pirates stationed in 32 territorial islands outside the main island all year round."

"What are you going to do about it?"

Galen felt that it was a little troublesome, but he still agreed with the belief that the beginning and the end should be done well:

"After the matter on this island is settled, I will take people to wipe out all the islands in Creek's territory."

"yes!"

Dex nodded, then pointed to a large group of pirate captives tied together in the square over there and said:

"Also, there are as many as 3022 pirates arrested."

"What should these people do?"

Galen felt even more dizzy:

In the past, he only cared about killing people and never considered the aftermath.

But now there are more than 3,000 captives, and the complicated situation does not allow Galen to be the shopkeeper easily.

"How about handing it over to the Navy?"

Galen suggested.

"navy?"

Dix shook his head: "The navy can't handle pirates of this size."

"For these insignificant and troublesome pirates, the navy has always been handed over to the local government."

"Local government?"

Galen was taken aback for a moment, then said helplessly:

"Where is the local government here?"

This was originally a pirate den, and the local government was the Creek Pirates.

"have."

Dex nodded deeply, and looked at Galen meaningfully:

"What you have now is the power to rule this sea."

"What?"

Galen said with some surprise:

"I don't intend to stay here and become the Emperor of the Earth."

Dexter did not show any disappointment, but asked flatly: "Are you going to leave directly?"

"That's right."

Galen nodded:

"I'm only here to punish Klick, and I don't intend to take over his power."

He pointed to the orderly labor team over there, and said to Dix:

"Look, isn't it very orderly to organize and manage this land by yourself?"

"order?"

Dexter shook his head, then smiled helplessly:

"The order you see is all based on your personal prestige."

"With your power to suppress, the laborers will show order, and the pirates will be captured obediently."

"As soon as you leave, this sea area will soon return to its original appearance."

Galen heard the meaning of Dexter's persuasion, so he turned around and refused:

"You have to have some confidence in yourself!"

"Weapons and manpower are in your own hands. It is not difficult to protect the safety of this sea area!"

"well"

Dex shook his head a little more:

"Master Galen, you think things too simply."

"This sea will always belong to the strong!"

"If you are not here, how can those laborers obey the management of me, an old fisherman?"

Galen remained silent, and he could understand this simple truth:

The old power fell, and the mere conflict of interest in dividing the legacy was enough to disintegrate a new power without a strong leader.

"Moreover, it depends on us ordinary people to protect this sea area"

There was a bit of bitter taste on Dekes' old cheeks, and the deep wrinkles on his forehead were wrinkled together: "Impossible."

Galen was about to say something to refute, but Dex let out a long sigh:

"You are not the first hero to save this sea."

"What's the meaning?"

Galen didn't quite understand Dexter's words.

"Because of the geographical location, this place has always been a paradise for pirates."

"One pirate group is down, and when the limelight passes, more pirate groups will swarm in."

The old man of Dexter said with deep emotion:

"I've lived for so many years, and I'm used to seeing the changing situation."

"The pirates came one after another to occupy the land and become kings, and the heroes also came one after another to fight for justice. Every few years is a reincarnation."

"Click is not the first pirate to be defeated, and you are not the first hero to come here to practice."

"but ah"

Dex sighed helplessly:

"You heroes fly too high and too far to stop on our little branch."

"But ordinary people like us are little trees unable to fly high."

"And as long as the tree is still there, there will never be a shortage of bugs to eat its flesh and blood."

Galen really wanted to refute Dexter's words with some theories such as "mobilizing the power of the people", but he still couldn't say it——

Because in this world of extraordinary power, no matter how powerful an ordinary person is, they are no match for an extraordinary powerhouse.

If there are too many ants, the elephant will not die, it will only be trampled by the elephant and flee.

Galen's unscientific record of annihilating the 5,000-member Creek Pirates with one sword is the best proof.

Dex looked at Galen deeply again, and said with some seriousness:

"After so many years, I can't wait for the next hero"

Looking at Dexter's old and vicissitudes of face, Galen couldn't help feeling a little emotional:

No wonder the old man Dexter was too calm from the beginning.

The co-author is an NPC who professionally leads people to download dungeons, and he repeats the familiar work of leading the brave to slay the dragon year after year.

Naturally, there is no problem with this kind of work on a thoughtless NPC, but it is not a problem to put it on a living person.

Like other adventurers, heroes, and knights, Galen only thought about how to punish evil, but never considered what the land would look like after he left.

This is not a responsibility he should bear, but once it is brought up, it will become a lingering question in his mind.

Formal collective meeting of the first leadership team of the nascent labor force after the fall of the Creek Territory.

The participants included the interim leader Galen, the interim cadres Dix, Nami, Wallace, and ten representatives who were spontaneously elected by the laborers during the riot.

"Everyone!"

Galen said with a serious expression: "After careful consideration, I have made a difficult decision."

"What?"

Everyone paid great attention to Galen's extremely serious tone.

Galen looked around, and his eyes finally settled on the two companions, Nami and Wallace:

"I am going to take over the power of the Creek Pirates and become the leader of this sea area."

"What do you think?"

As soon as he said this, Dex immediately smiled, and the ten labor representatives who worshiped Galen as a hero also readily agreed.

Wallace didn't express any opinion, but took out the paper and pen for recording the news with a glint in his eyes.

However, Nami was a little hesitant.

"you prepare"

Nami pursed her lips tightly, and asked a question she was very concerned about: "Are you going to be a pirate?"

"Being a pirate?"

Galen categorically retorted:

"How is that possible?!"

"Building an organization doesn't necessarily mean building a pirate group!"

"What I want to do is legitimate business!"

"This organization will also become a righteous group in my hands!"

"That's true."

Nami muttered to herself, but her expression was still a little unhappy.

Because of years of dark experience, Nami has a slight resistance to all rulers.

Take over power, become a leader, and rule the seas.

If you take one more crooked step, you will be no different from guys like Crick and the evil dragon.

"Believe me."

Galen saw through Nami's mind, and said solemnly:

"I will not be blinded by power"

"In fact, the power of this three-acre land is far from blocking my vision."

These words are indeed Galen's true inner thoughts. In his opinion, he stayed basically to help the poor

"and"

Galen changed another way of talking about Nami:

"The 33 islands left by Creek, 150,000 citizens, more than 50 large warships, more than 500 cargo ships of various types, tens of thousands of weapons and equipment, and cash treasures worth hundreds of millions"

"These assets can't be handled without a professional financial officer!"

"do not talk!"

Nami's pink cheeks were already flushed from being too excited: "I'm joining the gang!"
