Huh? Why aren't they at the same level?
So, who listens to whom when they're on the same level?
If everyone is at the same level, it's impossible to obey every order.
For example, with those three, it's fine to ask Kakei and Gion to do things, but it's definitely impossible to command them.
"Yes, Lieutenant General!" came the Major General's voice from the Den Den Mushi.
“You are disobeying the government’s orders, Lucilfer Kuro,” Lucci said in a deep voice.
"I'm on a mission right now. The murderer is on this ship. He can't escape. So stop making noise. If you can't handle it, come over here yourself. While you're at it, look for the Celestial Dragon's body and bring it back. If his body is still here, that's it."
"I will report this to my superiors!"
"Whatever."
Kuro hung up the Den Den Mushi and then looked towards the VIP area.
“Let’s go. Tesoro still has some men under his command. We need to appease the World Government. Those people will have to die here,” Kuro said.
“That’s right.” Gion smiled and took the lead.
"Hey, Kuro, how do we divide the spoils?"
Kaji nudged Kuro with his elbow and whispered, "I heard Tesoro has 500 billion Berries and countless amounts of gold."
Upon hearing this, Gion, who had walked to the front, twitched her ears.
Lida looked at Kuro with anticipation.
Five hundred billion!
Previously, they couldn't do anything to Tezzolo because of the rules, but now they can use that money.
"Yes, five hundred billion..."
Kuro exhaled a puff of smoke and said, "Those up there aren't stupid. They'll definitely be eyeing it. We can't take much."
“That’s a lot too,” Jiaji chuckled. “Taking on several hundred billion isn’t a problem.”
“Then I’ll take the lion’s share. After all, I was the one who started this. Tesoro must have complained about me to his superiors before. I won’t ask for much, eighty thousand, no, eighty percent!” Kuro blurted out.
Gion then turned around and said, "Even pirates don't know how to rob. You're asking for too much. Kuro, we also contributed, but since the main responsibility is yours, you can take 40%, which is the most you can get."
"What a joke. I killed those old pirates who caused the chaos, and I also gave the order to search this ship. With so many men under my command, don't they need money to feed their people and horses? Developing Pegasus Island also costs money. Now that Gran Tesoro, the Golden City, is gone, I feel I have to take over the entertainment industry so that ordinary people don't have nowhere to play. 70%."
“Forty-five percent, I’ve blocked a lot of calls for you,” Kaji said. “Gion and I will split the remaining fifty-five percent.”
"Sixty-five percent? My family is very wealthy and powerful. G-3 also has to guard against pirates from the New World. It's very dangerous," Kuro argued.
“Fifty percent. The money we’ve been keeping will also be demanded by headquarters. We can help you cover that part,” Gion said.
"Sixty percent is the biggest concession I've made. How about one of you switches with me? You guys guard G-3, and I'll go to your base," Kuro said.
“The higher-ups aren’t willing either.” Kaji chuckled. “How about 50%, Kuro? We’ll share the responsibility with you.”
"Fine, we're colleagues after all. Fifty percent of the Pele, but I have to have the gold."
"Okay, deal." Kake and Gion nodded together.
Kuro's bottom line was actually only 40%, after all, this money was an unexpected windfall, and he wouldn't mind taking as much as he wanted.
Whether the money still belongs to them or not is not important.
With the current rules no longer applicable, Tesoro's strength makes him nothing more than a lamb to the slaughter.
