Chapter 66 Do Whatever You Want
Happy Street.
The top floor of the hotel, luxury box.
Darren looked at the new list of candidates for the Shichibukai in Stussy's hand with a nonchalant expression, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
There are indeed many new names on the list, among which Moonlight Moriah and Jorakor Mihawk have both entered the new list.
Everything is progressing according to the direction planned.
The only surprising thing is that Fisher Tiger is not on the new list.
But this is normal.
Fisher Tiger was not a pirate during this time period, but a legitimate adventurer.
However, the "selection" scope of the King's Shichibukai is for big pirates who are powerful enough to frighten other pirates. Fisher Tiger's identity is wrong, and he has not shown any strong combat power, so he is not within the scope of the government's consideration. Very normal.
‘So, should I go to Fish-Man Island? ’
An idea suddenly flashed through Darren's mind.
If it were another candidate, Darren wouldn't have to care so much.
But Fisher Tiger has a high reputation among the fish-men clan, and he is backed by Fish-Man Island, the choke point at the entrance to the new world.
Although the fishmen have always been a weak race oppressed by humans in the original plot, the strength of the fishmen warriors is still quite good.
Darren has wanted to gain the power of the fishmen a long time ago. Although the successful establishment of the North Sea Fleet has ensured air supremacy, he has not yet conquered the deep sea.
In this vast and endless sea, sea control is undoubtedly extremely important.
If a diving force with fishmen warriors as the core could be formed to cooperate with the air raids of the North Sea Air Fleet... there would be no military organization or force in this sea that was qualified to start a war with him!
Just thinking about that picture is enough to make people excited.
The large-scale air strikes of the Feitian fleet, coupled with the underwater coordinated operations of the submarine fleet, no matter how powerful the army is, it is impossible to withstand simultaneous attacks from both the sky and the deep sea.
There is no need to break out any boarding battle. In the time when the target cannot react at all, the opponent's warship is directly sunk, and then the harvest comes to an end.
Even if one day they enter a disadvantageous and desperate situation, these two independent fleets can disappear directly from the world's sight and exist as a deterrent force.
This... is the blueprint for hegemony that Darren has conceived in his mind!
'Let's go and see it first, Fisher Tiger...'
Darren pondered secretly in his heart.
He put down the top-secret document in his hand, raised his head, and immediately couldn't help but laugh.
I saw Stussy sitting restlessly on the leather sofa, frowning, smoking one cigarette after another, surrounded by smoke.
In the crystal ashtray next to him, cigarette butts had piled up into a small mountain.
"You look worried."
Darren lit a cigar and his tone was actually a bit gloating.
Stussy glanced at him but said nothing.
But her tense body was enough to explain her anxious and worried mood at this moment.
The Five Old Stars had doubts about her... This was undoubtedly fatal.
Stussy infiltrated into the World Government and became an agent member of CP0 in order to gain the trust of the top leaders of the World Government so as to better protect Dr. Vegapunk secretly.
But now, the highest authority in the world government is suspicious of her.
If you don't handle it well, you might lose your life, and you might even implicate Dr. Vegapunk.
"I don't think you need to be so nervous at all. It's normal for big figures in high positions like Wulaoxing to distrust you."
"It might even turn out to be a good thing for you."
Darren smiled, stood up from the sofa, walked over to sit next to Stussy, and hugged the latter's waist in a familiar manner.
Stussy's body trembled slightly, but she didn't show the resistance she had in the past.
"you mean?"
She turned her head sharply to look at Darren, looking nervous.
In the deepest part of his eyes, there is a certain light of hope for survival from desperate situations.
The soft hands even subconsciously grabbed Darren's arm, like a drowning man trying to grasp a life-saving straw in an isolated and helpless situation... knowing that the chance was slim, but still holding on to the last glimmer of hope.
Stussy knew very well that if anyone in the world could really help him escape from this crisis, it would be the despicable guy in front of him.
He is all too familiar with this political game.
And relying on his ability to play around with the unfathomable five old stars, he can definitely do something!
Darren chuckled to himself as he felt the strength of Stousy's grip on his arm.
Under normal circumstances, this woman would not be so panicked.
It's just that this matter may involve Vegapunk's safety, and she was confused if she cared about it, so she couldn't see it for a while.
"Don't worry, this is just their daily test for you. As long as the candidates on this new list do not appear to be hunted like before, you will be fine... No, you are even better than anyone else. Be safe."
Darren began to analyze while stroking Stussy's pretty and charming cheeks with his hands.
The tone was calm and confident, full of an inexplicable persuasiveness.
"As long as the Five Elders are sure that the last list was not leaked from you, they will confirm that you are trustworthy and will rely on you more in the future."
"This also means that you can access more confidential information and secrets."
"This is a crisis, that's true, but it's also an opportunity."
The Vice Admiral looked at the queen in professional attire in front of him with a burning gaze, raised his hand gently, and gently combed a few strands of hair on her cheek.
"An opportunity for you to go one step further and completely enter CP0, no, the center of power of the World Government!"
"Then, won't you be able to better protect Dr. Vegapunk?"
Stussy's eyes lit up when he heard this.
Yes!
As long as he survived this dangerous situation, the Five Elders would only trust him more.
"What should I do then!?"
She blurted out subconsciously.
But as soon as she said it, she was stunned, and her face turned red little by little.
Because she saw Darren's malicious smile.
This bastard! !
The premise of gaining the trust of the Five Elders is that there will be no accidents on the new list.
And the so-called "accident"... isn't it decided by this guy in front of me?
I... am being threatened again!
Stussy gritted his teeth, his face changed for a few seconds, and finally seemed to accept the cruel reality. He simply closed his eyes, lay on the sofa, closed his eyes and said fiercely:
"Do whatever you want!"
