In the first half of the Grand Line, on an unknown island.
There were about a thousand pirates gathered together, singing and dancing, drinking and eating meat, as if they were holding a grand banquet.
In the core area of the banquet, there were three people with domineering looks and powerful auras, who clearly stood out among these pirates.
"Hahahaha, Ged, it's been a long time since we last met. I didn't expect you to have become so powerful."
"The rear admiral stationed in the country we attacked this time was crushed into a pulp by your death roll."
One of them was a muscular man with golden curly hair, over three meters tall. He raised his glass to the giant man next to him who was covered in fat and twice his height.
"Hahahaha, this is all thanks to my good luck. I accidentally got an ancient animal-type devil fruit, the Fish-Fish Fruit, a prehistoric giant crocodile-shaped devil fruit."
"Now, even if I meet a navy admiral, I would dare to confront him."
"Hehehe, Boss Gad led us to plunder this country this time and killed so many elite navy soldiers. For such a major event, I'm afraid the bounty will be doubled directly, over 200 million, right?"
Another man with a slightly normal build and a rat-like mustache also raised a wine glass and spoke in a flattering manner.
"Sharp Saw Pandev, Flash Redman, what have you thought about my last proposal?"
"If both of your pirate groups join my army and follow my footsteps, it won't be impossible for us to go to the New World to challenge the Four Emperors later." The giant crocodile Gad said to the other two with a ferocious look on his face.
Pandev and Redman looked at each other, both of them were tempted.
Before this, the two had just accepted Gad's invitation and plundered a small country together.
The opponent's powerful strength deeply shocked the two of them.
Because the last time they met, Gede, who didn't yet have a devil fruit, was only slightly stronger than the two of them.
At that time, the bounties on the three were 187 million baileys for Reading, 196 million baileys for Pandev, and 110 million baileys for Gade.
"I agree to join the Giant Crocodile Pirates!" Risaw Pandev gave the answer after a little thought.
He saw very clearly that it was nice to take shelter under a big tree.
Seeing that Pandev had agreed, Redman had no reason to refuse.
"Thank you, Boss Gaide, for your kindness. How dare Redman disobey?"
Hearing the two people's affirmative answer, Gad laughed and stood up.
He shouted to everyone present: "Guys, from today on, the Saw Pirates and the Flash Pirates will join the Crocodile Pirates."
"From now on, we are indivisible and become one."
Pandev and Redman also stood up and shouted: "No division, no unity."
"Have fun, guys! From today on, the Giant Crocodile Pirates will make the world tremble step by step!" Gede raised his glass, drank it all, and roared.
All the other pirates immediately went crazy upon hearing this, and the whole banquet was pushed to a climax.
At this moment, "Bulu bulu bulu, bulu bulu bulu!" The Den Den Mushi in Gede's arms suddenly rang.
"Hello, I'm Gad."
However, the scene was too noisy, and Gad could only see the Den Den Mushi's mouth moving, but could not hear any sound at all.
Few people know his phone number, and most of them are here.
At present, the only people who can call him are the spies who stay in various places to inquire about information.
The call at this time must be no small matter.
Gad roared helplessly again: "Quiet, quiet down."
Gad had a loud voice, and his roar was like the roar of a giant beast, and the scene suddenly became quiet.
"Hey, start from the beginning."
An extremely excited voice came from the other end of the line: "Captain, I just received reliable information that the Seven Warlords of the Sea Crocodile has raised 200 billion berries in Alabasta to build a new city."
"This huge sum of money is currently being guarded by several of Crocodile's men and stored in the casino in that new city, which has very weak defenses."
"The most important point is that Crocodile himself is not in Alabasta."
"Captain, this is an unprecedented big deal. If you succeed, you will never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of your life."
Gad was also shocked when he heard the news.
He robbed a country's treasury, which contained only a little over 3 billion berries.
Two hundred billion Baileys was something he had never heard of before. He couldn't even imagine how much space such a large amount of money would take up.
"Two hundred billion, are you sure?" Ged couldn't help but confirm again.
"It's absolutely true, Captain. I personally went to the capital of Alabasta and bribed the guards there. I confirmed it again and again before reporting it to you."
The voice of Den Den Mushi was very clear and everyone could hear what was said on the call.
"Hahahaha, guys, did you all hear that? The real big deal is coming! Two hundred billion! If we pull this off, we'll truly enjoy endless wealth and glory!"
Everyone present was excited.
Why become a pirate? Most people do it for wealth.
How can such a huge sum of money not make people jealous? They would try to grab it even at the risk of their lives.
"Boss Gede, that's the territory of Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Is it really okay for us to steal money from him?" Redman suddenly spoke up, pouring cold water on everyone.
"Tsk... Crocodile? He's just a loser who, after being defeated by Whitebeard, only dared to hide in a country and claim to be the king."
"I'm afraid he only got his status as a Shichibukai by paying off a high-ranking official in the World Government."
"He's just a small sand crocodile, but I'm a prehistoric giant crocodile."
"Don't mention that he's not in Alabasta right now. Even if he were guarding that pile of money, if I were there, he would only have one fate."
"That means death!" Gad sneered and said in a sinister tone.
His eyes were so fat that they could only open a tiny slit, revealing a hint of coldness.
"My fellow pirates, you must think carefully. After this operation, the reputation of our Giant Crocodile Pirates will truly be spread across the ocean."
"And the money each person gets is not a small amount."
"Having money, eating delicious food and drinking spicy drinks every day, hugging women who you can't afford to play with normally, isn't that wonderful?"
As Gad spoke one sentence after another, full of endless temptation.
All the pirates were caught in a fantasy, as if they were lying surrounded by countless banknotes.
Their eyes were red and they were breathing heavily through their nostrils.
"Guys, does anyone want to join me in robbing Crocodile's money?" Ged said with a sinister grin, his face also red.
"Grab! Grab! Grab!"
"Grab all the Crocodile!"
"Grab! Grab! Grab!"
"Grab all the Crocodile!"
All the pirates on the island went crazy.
