Chapter 1968: Blocking the Endgame (28)

—Sea Circular Calendar, 1500 —
Rogue Town.
Well, the proof of the tyrant...
After negotiating the commission-related remuneration with "Machary Sorgen" and enjoying a lunch, Jin Jing and Tang San said goodbye and left to prepare for the next sea trip. "The Evidence of the Overlord Map".
[The map of "Proof of the Overlord" (quest item)]
[This old parchment shows the terrain of a certain sea area, and has a cross somewhere on it. 】
[‘Want my treasure? Then go find it! ’]

This is one of the rewards obtained in advance for this "entrustment". The other is that you can build a ship at the shipyard in Rogge Town for free. As for the real reward, you can only get it after meeting the "White Star Princess".
In the process of discussing the details of the entrustment, the two sides tacitly did not discuss the question of "why did you choose me". Even if you don't have to guess, you know that as long as Jin Jing asks, the answer you get will be "You are already famous in the East China Sea. the best person for the task".
As for the real reason... The answer that excludes the "arrangement of the main god" from the perspective of God should be related to the origin of "Bai Jingjing" and "Tang San's Burial", and further, it is in line with "replacing Maqiri Sorgen to go to Mermaid Island" Qualifications of candidates for this task.
If Jin Jing guessed by herself, "female" should be a crucial condition. From the photo, although the mermaid princess is beautiful, she has a timid expression on her face and seems to be afraid of something. In this case, men want to catch up It's almost impossible to say, and most likely will be directly driven away by the guards.
As for the secondary condition, it should be "to be able to pass the first half of the great route and reach the Mermaid Island". So far, she has not seen other female captains in the East China Sea, and she does not know if there will be other sea areas.
Finally, I have obtained the "Certificate of Overlord" on this picture. It seems to be influenced by the rhetoric of "One Piece". In recent years, pirates from the four major sea areas have flocked, and they all want to go to the great route. In order to stop this chaos, the navy that controls the "Upside Down Mountain" at the entrance to the great air route has promulgated the "Certificate of Tyrant" system.
They specially designated a total of seven "valuables" in the Four Seas area as "Certificate of Overlord". Only pirates or ordinary captains who have obtained "Certificate of Overlord" are allowed to enter the great route.
These valuables themselves are of average value, and only have corresponding functions after being given the title of "Certificate of Tyrants" by the Navy Headquarters.
The "Certificate of Tyrant" is anonymous, does not report the loss, does not reissue, can be transferred, traded, or snatched. The fleet holding it must hand in this item to enter the great route. After each certificate of Tyrant is handed in, Will be redesignated by the Navy Headquarters in three to six months.
These pirates or ordinary captains who hold the certificate of overlord but have not traveled to the great route will be called [Wangxia Qiwuhai] or [Overlord]. "Wangxia Qiwuhai" can legally loot merchant ships, But the income is taxed to the Navy.
At the same time, they will get the preferential treatment of "Wanted Freeze", that is, suspend any wanted for the holder and his subordinates, and the Navy will not arrest them even if they encounter it - unless he actively provokes the Navy.
Although anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is the navy setting a target to make the pirates fight, otherwise there is only a certificate of why the four seas have to designate seven tyrants? But becoming a "overlord" is also difficult for pirates who are brave and eager to make a name for themselves.
This was taken by the Navy.
Hmm... It turns out that this is the case. Others, such as the revolutionary army and local kingdoms, can also understand, but they don't know what the "four emperors" are.
In short, build the ship first, recruit people, and get the certificate of the tyrant.
—
outrageous.
Jin Jing looked at the row of "0"s on the panel that popped up from the shipyard, and was very speechless.
Not only small and medium-sized ships, but even large, giant, and even military and modified ships have a purchase price of 0.
Rogge Town is obviously a port exclusively owned by the Navy, and there is no half-letter of "Machary Sorgen" on it, but he can give such exaggerated discounts, no, it's free.
"Let's buy a 'heavy galley dual-purpose battleship, naval type'? Ordinary pirate ships can be smashed directly." Jin Jing said nonsense to Tang Sanbu next to him.
"I don't recommend doing this, Xiaojing." Tang Sanbu shook his head: "Although we don't have to pay for the ship, we have to pay for recruiting personnel, purchasing equipment, remodeling the ship, and storing water—and if we go out, we will pay for it. Pirates who can be crushed by it will definitely run away."
Indeed, Maggie Rizolgen only said that the purchase of the boat is free, but not the modification.
Although the initial ship can also be driven, but... Is there anyone who only buys a house and does not decorate it?
In addition, the bigger the boat, the easier it is to be targeted by powerful pirates. The last time they hit the Chef Pirates was purely an accident. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for them to look at their own boat. It may be that a crew member has committed the crime. Got scurvy.
In the end, Jin Jing selected a medium-sized dhow, named "White Dragon Horse No. 2", which has 40/150 sailors, equipped with a battery, a ship's doctor's office, an accounting room, and a 130-unit cargo warehouse - well , she admits, the ship was chosen primarily to round up the amount of cargo it could carry to 150.
But in this way, the number of sailors required by the fleet has reached 50. Before looking for the certificate of the tyrant, you have to recruit enough sailors and find some pirates to level them up, um...
Having determined the boat to buy and the "renovation" plan, Jin Jing turned to the tavern in Rogue Town.
Because the town's popularity is high enough, both the streets and the shops are much more prosperous, and the area in the tavern is even ten times larger than that of Shields Town.
Speaking of which, now that he is considered a small fortune, why not invite the people present to have a drink and see if he can recruit enough sailors at one time? Anyway, no matter how many people are present, only 1,000 Baileys are consumed.
But just as Jin Jing was about to move towards the option of "please invite everyone present for a drink", out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly noticed something extraordinary, so she decided to leave the tavern owner and walk to the table in the corner of the tavern.
On the long table in the corner, two people were sitting face to face, one was a dignified European old man in a straight black suit with white beard and hair, the other was wearing a pure white dress, a veil on his head, black hair and black eyes. oriental woman.
The two of them were out of place in the tavern hall in terms of looks and clothes, but they didn't attract anyone's attention at all, as if they were born to sit here.
The names of "them" are:
[Marlon Brando] and [Bai Suzhen].
...How about I give them an Armed Color entanglement now?
