7 Warlords of the Sea and Kizaru Attacks

"Nice to meet you!"

Vlad sat on the deck leaning against the side of the ship and smiled, "Oh, no, we haven't met yet. Should I say, first call?"

"Vlad the Fire Dragon,"

An old but oppressive voice came from the other side, and the face of the phone bug changed into a bearded image, "Is this the fire dragon Vlad who has a bounty of 750 million?"

"Oh? Do the honorable sir from Gorosei actually know my name?"

Vlad smiled, "This is such an honor. My name will be remembered by the most powerful people in the world. Hey, is this a treatment that only big pirates can get? This is really true. I deserve it too. Is the government wary of a big pirate?"

"Arrogant fool!"

The bearded Gorosei on opposite scolded, "You have to know who you are talking to! A pirate! The person you are talking to is the center of the world government! The center of the world!"

"Uhahahaha!"

"Ouch, this is really scary!"

Vlad smiled, "The Gorosei and the World Government are so scary! I'm so scared that I can't speak clearly!"

"Pirate, you are crossing the line!"

The bearded Gorosei's tone was very unkind, "After all, you're just garbage on the sea. It seems impossible to expect you to be able to communicate with us normally!"

"Well, don't speak so harshly! Lord Gorosei!"

Vlad sneered, "I came here with a transaction mentality. It's not easy to be able to talk to a big shot like Gorosei. Of course I won't just talk nonsense!"

"Transaction?"

The Gorosei said disdainfully, "What deal can the government have with pirates? Don't be too arrogant, pirates. Although I don't know why the world noble people asked us to contact you, but ah, pirates, don't try to challenge the government!"

"No, don't get me wrong!"

Vlad was basking in the sun leisurely and smiling, "I'm really here to make a deal! Who said the government and the pirates can't make deals? Lord Gorosei, don't forget, there are still people under the government. There is an organization called Shichibukai!"

"I'm a little scared. I'm afraid that if my bounty is so high, will someone come to trouble me? I'm so scared that I can't sleep at night!"

Vlad laughed playfully, "So I was thinking, can you get rid of this identity? Can you prevent me from being affected by the bounty?"

"The answer is yes! Isn't the Shichibukai under the government such an organization?"

Vlad said excitedly, "Isn't that awesome? Legal pirates, this is what I have been pursuing! So -"

"So you tried every means to contact us?"

The phone bug's expression changed to that of an old man with a long beard, and his voice became a little deeper. He was another Gorosei. 

"Yes! The Shichibukai are just your subordinates, right?"

Vlad replied, "Isn't it easy for you to appoint a Shichibukai?"

"Pirate, where did you get the confidence? Would we accept you as the Shichibukai so easily?"

The long-bearded Gorosei said calmly, "If you have any chips, take them out as soon as possible! We don't have extra time to talk nonsense with you!"

"It's great! I like to deal with people who are straightforward!"

Vlad smiled, "If you want to talk about bargaining chips, of course I have them!"

"If you want to make a deal with the government, you can't be unprepared!"

Vlad's expression was half-smiling, "I don't dare to disturb the precious time of Lord Gorosei without making proper preparations!"

Transactions. It is normal for pirates to have transactions with the government. The Shichibukai is a typical example. The so-called justice is just a slogan after all. For the government, only interests are truly worth considering. As long as the government is given enough benefits, what is the so-called justice?

"Then stop talking nonsense!"

The bearded Gorosei sounded slightly impatient.

"Well, don't be impatient, Lord Gorosei!"

Vlad smiled, "My chips will definitely make you tempted. After all, I have been preparing for a long time. There is no reason why I won't make you tempted!"

"So, what are your bargaining chips?"

Gorosei said.

"Impel down is also an important institution under the government, right?"

Vlad changed the topic and asked.

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Gorosei was a little impatient.

Impel Down is one of the three major agencies under the government. This is a fact known to everyone in the world, and there is no need to answer it at all.

"Twenty years ago!"

Vlad said, "The Impel Down, which would never be breached, was actually breached. A lawless guy actually escaped from the Impel Down, which was as impassable as an iron wall. Even though twenty years have passed, this is Impel Down. An unprecedented gaffe in history, right?"

"What is it?"

The bearded Gorosei instantly understood what Vlad meant, "Could it be that——"

"That's right!"

Vlad smiled, "The golden lion is in my hands now. The overlord who roamed the sea twenty years ago, the only escapee from the big prison, the man who brought shame to the government, is now lying on my boat. oh!"

"..."

There was sudden silence on the other side of the phone, and the Gorosei suddenly became quiet, "How should we believe you? We won't believe that you really caught the Golden Lion just because of your words!"

"Well, it's very simple!"

Vlad smiled, "As long as I wake up the golden lion and let him say a few words, it will be fine. Although he has not appeared again for twenty years, you must not have forgotten his voice, right?"

"...--"

The Gorosei was a little hesitant, which was natural. After all, even after twenty years, they still could tell whether this person was a Golden Lion just by talking to someone on the phone. It was a simple matter, but Gorosei would not believe Vlad's words so easily.

"You go to the nearest naval base nearby and we'll use the phone bug to confirm!"

The bearded Gorosei finally said this.

Just kidding, go to the nearest naval base, who knows if there is an ambush there, who knows if there will be warships surrounding you soon, Vlad is not a fool.

"I won't-"

Vlad was only halfway through speaking, and at this moment, Vlad's expression suddenly changed.

"Excuse me——"

A man squatted quietly on the side of the ship and said with some trouble, "I'm sorry, I want to ask you if you know why there are islands falling from the sky! It's so scary! It scared me!"

"This guy is!!!"

The chef was the first to react, and two kitchen knives instantly appeared in his hand.

"navy?"

The maid saw the cloak of justice floating behind the visitor.

"Enemy, enemy?"

Serena winced.

"calm!"

Vlad yelled.

"This is really——"

Vlad had a forced smile on his face, "The worst possible situation!"

"Oh!"

The visitor opened his mouth somewhat exaggeratedly, "Are you the Fire Dragon Pirates? It's really scary. The total bounty of the pirates exceeds one billion!"

"This voice?"

Vlad did not hang up the phone. Of course, the Gorosei on the other side of the phone also heard the voice of the person coming, "Borsalino?"

"Ha ha!"

Vlad smiled dryly, "Now it seems that we can directly confirm the identity of the golden lion!"

The person's name is Borsalino, codenamed Kizaru, and he is an admiral of the Navy Headquarters!

This is really, really unlucky!
