Chapter 368: The Plan to End the Age of Exploration! (Two-in-one)
"Custard?"
"Who is that?"
Yoshiichi Tsugikuni heard a rather unfamiliar name from Cracker's mouth. Seeing Cracker's happy expression, this person named Castard might have some weight in the BIG MOM pirate group?
Otherwise, how could Cracker be so sure that his disappearance would attract attention?
Because if you are a subordinate, even if you can't see Cracker, you will only wonder if your "leader" is busy with other things.
Tsugikoku Yoshiichi turned his head slightly to look at Howl beside him and asked. Howl was squatting beside Cracker, reaching out his hands to feel something on Cracker's body. Soon, he found another Den Den Mushi that was making a sound.
Then, with a grim expression, he walked over to Tsugikuni Yoriichi and handed the Den Den Mushi to Tsugikuni Yoriichi while answering, "Castad is Cracker-sama's sister."
"She's Big Mom's daughter."
"If she can't contact Mr. Cracker."
"I'm afraid Master Cracker's affairs can't be kept secret for much longer."
Hao Er looked at the Den Den Mushi in his hand with a worried look on his face, feeling a dilemma as to whether he should answer it or not. He then looked at Yuichiro Tsugakuin, waiting for him to make a decision.
Howl knew that he had to be a person with "no stance" now. Only in this way could he survive the game between Yoriichi Tsugakuni and the BIG MOM Pirates.
"Sister?"
Tsugakuni Yoshiichi frowned slightly, obviously feeling the difficulty of the situation. Unfortunately, Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's observation Haki was unable to detect Morgans's breath. The other party's resting place was most likely not on the islands near Biscuit Island.
There are many islands in Wan Guo. In order to search so many islands in a short time, Tsugikuni Yoshiichi must fly to do this, but in this way, his target will be too big and he will be easily discovered.
If the target is exposed, it is hard to say what impact it will have on his subsequent plans.
Moreover, this time when he came to Wan Guo, Tsugakuin Yoshiichi's purpose was not just to find Morgans.
Mastering the power of "media hegemony" is certainly one of the most important things for the new navy at present, but correspondingly, after mastering this power, it is necessary to make good use of it.
If we only use the power of Morgause to justify the new navy, then it would be a bit of a waste of talent.
In the mind of Yoshikazu Tsugakuni, there is an even more terrifying plan brewing. If his plan is successfully implemented, the World Government will be forced to the edge of the cliff by Yoshikazu Tsugakuni!
"Blur, blur—"
The sound of the Den Den Mushi never stopped, and the sound made Howl extremely anxious. When Cracker saw a hint of thought on Tsugikuni Yoriichi's face, his smile became even brighter.
"Cracker, it's okay for me to tell you the reason why I came to Wanguo."
"My goal is to create the 'historical text' in Big Mom's hands."
"I don't want to go to war with the Big Mom Pirates. After I get the rubbing of the historical text, I will leave."
“Hey——”
"Can you cooperate with me?!"
Ji Guoyuan reached out and took the Den Den Mushi from Howl's hand, then walked to Cracker who was slumped on the ground, slowly squatted down, and while speaking, handed the Den Den Mushi to Cracker.
"Historical text!!"
When Cracker heard the name "Historical Text" from Tsugakuin Yoshiichi's mouth, his face was stunned. He had many guesses in his mind about the purpose of Tsugakuin Yoshiichi's trip.
Assassinating MAMA, engaging in direct battle with the BIG MOM Pirates, and so on.
The only unexpected purpose of Cracker is the historical text.
He didn't understand why someone like Jigoku Yuichi would be interested in that broken stone.
Thinking about this, Cracker seemed to have thought of something funny and suddenly burst into laughter:
"Ha ha ha ha!!"
"Tsugikoku Yuichi Tsugikoku Yuichi!!"
"I never thought a man like you would be so naive as to believe in the existence of a great secret treasure?"
"Are you planning to collect the signposts and go to Raftel? The Laugh Tale?"
"You want to be the Pirate King? Stop dreaming! Raftel doesn't exist!"
"Roger has been to Raftel, and the World Government and the Navy have also called him the Pirate King, but so what?"
"Did he gain power or wealth? Wasn't he eventually captured and executed by your navy?"
"And didn't you capture that man? Do you think Raftel has any great treasure?"
"Naive! Hahahaha, so naive!"
Tsugakuin Yuichi's purpose sounded so funny to Cracker. Tsugakuin Yuichi's strength was suffocating and made people despair, but Cracker had never expected that behind such terrifying power, there was such a naive mind.
Cracker finally felt a strong sense of superiority from this young man, and there was a hint of contempt in his eyes when he looked at Tsugikuni Yoriichi.
This is the contempt of mature men for immature men.
However, after learning about Tsugakuin Yoshiichi's purpose, Cracker felt a little relieved. Tsugakuin Yoshiichi with an unknown purpose was scary, but Tsugakuin Yoshiichi with a clear purpose was not so scary.
Cracker did not doubt the true purpose of Yuichiro Tsugakuma. The childish side of a person like Yuichiro Tsugakuma made Yuichiro Tsugakuma's image in Cracker's mind more three-dimensional and real.
otherwise.
A former admiral who was expelled from the navy is still obsessed with eliminating pirates. Such a person is too "vain" and "idealistic".
The sound of the Den Den Mushi disappeared. It seemed that Cracker's sister had hung up the phone.
Tsugikoku Yoshiichi stared at Cracker. Facing the other party's ridicule, he was not moved at all. He just continued calmly:
"It's naive or childish."
"The historical text is my goal, Cracker. You should have experienced my power firsthand."
"I'll leave once I get the historical text. If you're willing to help, it will help prevent an avoidable war for your Big Mom Pirates."
"If you start a war in Wan Guo, who knows how many of your brothers and sisters will die, and even your MAMA won't be able to escape."
"Don't doubt my ability. I think you should be very clear about this."
"Now, make your decision, Cracker."
Ji Guoyuan dragged the Den Den Mushi to Cracker with an indifferent expression.
Looking at the Den Den Mushi that was placed in front of him, Cracker of course knew what Tsugikuni Yoriichi intended him to do. His face was dark and looked quite ugly.
"Are you threatening me? Threatening our Big Mom Pirates?!"
This was the first time Cracker had encountered such a situation in all his life. He had never imagined that he would be blackmailed one day!
"You don't want anything to happen to your MAMA and sister, do you, Mr. Cracker?"
Tsugikoku Enishi spoke these terrifying words in a gentle voice, and Cracker's expression changed several times after hearing them. In his heart, his sister was actually not as important as his MAMA. He and Katakuri had different personalities.
Thinking silently about the terrifying power that Tsugakuin Yoshiichi had displayed before, Cracker knew that if Tsugakuin Yoshiichi was determined to attack MAMA, MAMA's life would indeed be threatened, which was something Cracker could not accept.
Compared to the threats to one's own family, things like copying historical texts become somewhat insignificant.
The giant stone tablet containing the historical text is stored in a treasure house deep within Cake Island, and is usually unattended. Although Big Mom is ambitious and believes in Roger's words, she has actually given up hope on Raftel.
She has held the stone tablet in her hand for more than a day or two, but she has never been able to decipher the words on it. If she can't even decipher a stone tablet, then what value does something like Raftel have to her, Big Mom?
Getting the rubbing was extremely difficult for Wang Luffy and the others, but for Cracker, it was a very easy task.
Although he was dissatisfied with Tsugakuin Yoshiichi's attitude towards him, Cracker was also intimidated by Tsugakuin Yoshiichi's terrifying strength. After weighing it in his mind, he finally nodded slightly:
"good!"
"I'll help you get the rubbings of the historical text, but after you get it, you must leave Wan Guo as soon as possible!"
"Or else."
Even if he had to compromise with Yuichiro Tsugakuin, Cracker did not want to weaken his momentum. However, in the end, he suddenly realized that he had nothing to threaten Yuichiro Tsugakuin.
"Don't worry, you are still useful. I won't take action against you for the time being!"
Tsugikoku Yoshiichi said with a smile, and then, under Tsugikoku Yoshiichi's gaze, Cracker took the Den Den Mushi from Tsugikoku Yoshiichi's hand and called back. Just as Cracker had expected, the call just now was indeed from his sister Charlotte Custard.
"What are you doing, Cracker brother?"
"The agreed time is almost here, I'm already at the dock, where are you?"
A voice full of complaints came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi. Hearing his sister's voice, Cracker forced himself to smile, calming down a bit before saying, "Actually, I was already at the dock, and you weren't there yet."
"I have nothing else to do, so I went to check the ship with my men. You've arrived already, right?"
"I'll be right here to get you."
On the other end of the phone, Charlotte Custard frowned slightly after hearing Cracker's explanation and urged, "Hurry up, hurry up!"
"Okay!" Cracker responded and hung up the phone. He then raised his hands, shook the handcuffs on his hands, and asked, "I can't go see MAMA like this, right?"
Ji Guoyuan glanced at Cracker, and then gave a look to Haoer.
Although the latter was not a subordinate of Yoshikazu Tsugakuni, Howl had excellent foresight and immediately took out the key to unlock the cracker.
After stretching his wrist, Cracker glanced at Jigoku Yoshiichi, stood up, and wanted to leave, but as soon as he took a step, Jigoku Yoshiichi also followed him silently for two steps.
Noticing Tsugakuin Yuichi's actions, Cracker raised his eyebrows, turned around and looked at Tsugakuin Yuichi and asked, "What are you doing?!"
"Lord Cracker, I am your subordinate."
Ji Guoyuanyi heard Cracker's question and said as a matter of course, "Just a few simple words and he let Cracker go like this?" Ji Guoyuanyi was not so naive as to go to Cake Island, so of course he would go with him.
He would feel more assured if he did the rubbing himself, and he had the "technology" so he didn't need to prepare the cloth and ink for rubbing. He could just take a photo and it would be done, saving him time and effort.
After obtaining the picture of the historical text, his plan was half completed. The only thing left was to control Morgans!
If the plan goes well, when the world government accidentally discovers a newspaper containing the historical text, I think their expressions will become extremely interesting!
What will the world government do then?
Ban newspapers? That would definitely happen, but newspapers don't belong to the world government, so they can't control Newsbird at all.
Killing all the people who read the newspaper? That would be too crazy. There is no shortage of powerful people in this world. If the World Government really did this, then it is still unclear which side their "justice" would lean towards.
The Age of Discovery?!
Ji Guoyuan will put an end to it himself later.
Cracker didn't know what was going on in Tsugakuin's mind. When he heard that Tsugakuin was planning to pretend to be one of his subordinates and enter Cake Island, his face immediately changed and he shouted angrily:
"You want to come with me?"
"Are you kidding me?!"
"Do you know how big a target you are?!"
Even Cracker could see the difference in Tsugikuni Yuichi, so wouldn't the brothers and sisters on Cake Island be able to spot it? Granted, not all of my brothers and sisters are smart, but there are still many who are!
Even if no one else says it, Katakuri-brother, who is deeply trusted by mom, will definitely notice it.
"Don't worry, even if we go to Cake Island, I won't get off the boat easily."
"I will only be by your side when necessary."
As he spoke, Yoriichi Tsugikuni took out a Den Den Mushi from his arms and handed it to Cracker. Looking at the Den Den Mushi with a tuft of red hair and stripes on its forehead, Cracker fell into silence.
"It's up to you."
Cracker was obviously powerless to resist. Although he was dissatisfied, he had no ability to resist Tsugikuni Yoriichi's decision.
"I'll leave this to you."
Before leaving, Ji Guoyuan turned his head and looked at Howl. It seemed that he was talking to Howl, but his gaze was actually sweeping towards Yixiao and Ferland in the crowd.
The latter noticed Tsugikuni Yoriichi's gaze and understood.
When Yuichiro Tsugikuni followed Cracker on a small boat back to the Biscuit Island Pier, he saw Charlotte Custard and her group waiting by a large ship close to the shore from afar.
Charlotte Custard is in her twenties, tall, with a long sword on her waist, young and beautiful, with a purple bouffant hair, and looks like a giant loli.
After seeing Cracker and his group, Charlotte Custard waved happily to her brother, and then her eyes noticed Tsugakuni Yoriichi who was following behind Cracker, and her gaze fell on Tsugakuni Yoriichi.
A stranger I've never met before.
Charlotte Custard's observation Haki is not strong, and she doesn't think the aura emitted by Tsugikuni Yoshiichi is much different from that of others. Her intuition in this regard is not as sharp as Cracker's.
Charlotte Custard was simply attracted by the "style" of Tsugakuni Yuichiro. Tsugakuni Yuichiro wore a red jacket, sunglasses, and a pirate hat, looking like a "pirate captain".
But "strange clothes" can't hide the charm of Tsugokuni Yoshiichi. His "painting style" is different from most people in the pirate world.
"Hmm"
"Brother, who is this person?"
After Cracker and the others arrived on the shore, Charlotte Custard looked at Tsugikuni Yoriichi intently, grabbed Cracker's wrist and asked.
Seeing that his sister's attention was actually on Yuichiro Tsugikoku, Cracker was shocked.
Look, we can’t hide it anymore even before we reach Cake Island!
"Vice-captain of the Rainbow Pirates."
"I have something to report to MAMA, so I'll take it with me."
"He's just a nobody, so you don't need to ask any more questions."
Cracker acted like a brother and spoke. Hearing Cracker's words, Charlotte Custard's face darkened inexplicably, and she muttered, "The vice-captain of the Rainbow Pirates?"
When Ji Guoyuan heard Cracker introduce himself, he adjusted his pirate hat, bowed slightly like a gentleman in the direction of Charlotte Custard, and said nothing.
As a small person, you should act like a small person, right?
Charlotte Custard didn't think much about it and waved happily in the direction of Tsugikuni Yoriichi. Noticing his sister's expression, Cracker secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Got through with it!
The group boarded the boat that had been prepared long ago, sailed away from Biscuit Island and headed towards Cake Island.
Ji Guoyuan always remembered his "identity" and followed Cracker closely. Even on the boat, he did not leave Cracker too far away.
Seeing that Jigoku Yoshiichi was following him closely, Cracker knew that Jigoku Yoshiichi did not trust him. He just sneered and felt that he was being looked down upon.
As for Charlotte Custard, she actually wanted to talk to Ji Guoyuan, but seeing Ji Guoyuan's "loyal" look, she temporarily suppressed the idea.
In a wonderful atmosphere, the boat finally arrived at Cake Island in the evening.
As the sun sets, the sea surface is dyed orange by the setting sun.
Custard stood at the bow with his brother, looking at the Cake Island getting closer and closer, with a gentle smile on his face.
The breeze blew gently, and the purple hair danced in the wind. Custard reached out and stroked it, turned his head slightly, glanced at Ji Guoyuan, and then said to Cracker:
"Here we are. I hope I'm not late, or MAMA will be mad."
Tsugikoku Yoshiichi noticed Charlotte Custard's gaze and frowned slightly under his sunglasses.
"Did it attract attention?"
"Why not just sneak in later? With my abilities, hiding in such a large place until tomorrow's tea party shouldn't be a problem."
"Cracker shouldn't be suspicious of my intentions."
