Chapter 445 Recruiting a Senior Agent from Baroque Works
After killing Crocodile with a single strike, Yoru calmly sheathed Yuki.
The surface of Yukari's blade even still retained traces of Armament Haki that hadn't dissipated.
The space around Yukashi only stabilized the moment the guard collided with the scabbard.
Weiwei's legs went weak, and she knelt down on the ground.
He stared blankly at Crocodile, who had become a mangled corpse.
She couldn't believe that Crocodile, who had caused so much chaos in Alabasta and almost brought the country to its knees, had been killed so easily, with just one slash.
He's one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
How could he be killed with just one strike?
At this moment, Vivi truly realized just how low Ye Yu's bounty of 5 million Berries was.
He killed Crocodile with a single strike, without lifting a finger. Is such a person even human?
Crocodile is a user of the Sand-Sand Fruit, a Logia-type Devil Fruit user.
How exactly did Ye Yu manage to injure his physical body and then kill him with a single strike?
Everyone was stunned. Their gazes toward Ye Yu shifted from curiosity to terror, especially those of the senior agents from Baroque Works.
Even Robin, who had previously favored Yoru, was shocked. She had indeed thought Yoru might be stronger than Crocodile.
But she never expected that Ye Yu would be so ridiculously strong.
They were practically monsters.
Having dealt with Crocodile, Yoru turned his attention to several senior agents of Baroque Works.
Just a glance was enough to send several senior agents shivering with fear.
Even the most aloof Dazbonis was now covered in sweat.
He's a cold-blooded killer, but that doesn't mean he's a fool. If he were to rush in and fight to the death when he saw someone with Ye Yu's strength, he would be incredibly stupid.
If Dazbonis was like this, then the other senior agents were even more utterly defeated.
Yoru then turned his gaze to Robin beside him.
Robin's heart skipped a beat, but she still mustered her courage and appeared in front of Yoru. "Are you going to attack me too?"
Robin, standing in front of Yoru, was actually a head taller than Yoru.
No one dared to underestimate this person who was even shorter than Robin.
Ye Yu didn't speak, but turned to look at Weiwei, who was kneeling on the ground.
"Princess Vivi, I have taken care of the person for you. I hope you can send my reward as soon as possible."
Pulled back to reality by Ye Yu's words, Weiwei turned to look at Ye Yu and nodded blankly, "Okay, okay."
Ye Yu smiled slightly. "Thank you very much."
Vivi forced a smile and said, "It's okay."
Robin looked at Yoru, unaware of what the reward they were talking about was.
Robin looked at Yoru and asked, "Are you going to go out to sea again?"
Ye Yu looked at the several senior agents from Baroque Works and said, "Of course we'll be going out to sea. What, you want to hitch a ride on my ship?"
Yoru knew a bit about Robin; she would be Luffy's future crew member.
Robin smiled and said, "Then will you accept me?"
"My identity is that of the Devil's Child. If the World Government finds out I'm on your ship, you might get arrested by them."
Ye Yu frowned.
However, Yoru said, "Anyway, I'm being treated as a pirate, so it doesn't matter."
Although Yoru knew that Robin would become Luffy's crew member, he did not refuse Robin's request to join the crew.
At the same time, Ye Yu also had designs on several senior agents from Baroque Works. Since a fleet was to be established, it would be impossible to do without crew members.
Yoru didn't want to go looking for the crew members, so he said, "If those people want to live, I can hire them; if they don't want to live, I can send them to Crocodile."
Robin was taken aback.
She was somewhat surprised. She had originally thought that Ye Yu had asked her to board the ship because he was targeting her, but she never expected that Ye Yu was targeting all the senior agents of the Baroque Works.
Without Robin relaying the message, several members of Baroque Works immediately appeared before Yoru after he finished speaking, saying very earnestly, "We are willing to board your ship, Lord Yoru. Please allow us to become your crew members."
The way these people were so attentive was completely different from their usual arrogance, leaving Miss Valentine stunned.
She originally thought she would be the only crew member from Baroque Works to join Ye Yu's crew, but she never expected that they would join as well.
And why are they so attentive?
Yoru was also somewhat surprised; he had thought that at least a few of these people were very loyal to Crocodile.
As for Dazbonis, Yoru felt that he would never betray Crocodile, and he was even prepared to execute Dazbonis.
Who knew he would kneel down too?
Looking at these guys, they were all strangely shaped, but fortunately they were all normal in appearance and none of them had particularly awful looks. Apart from Mr. 2 Bon Clay, who was dressed as a cross-dresser, Yoru didn't find them particularly special.
Seeing the survival instincts gleaming in their eyes, Ye Yu nodded and said, "My salary isn't very high, are you still willing?"
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
They looked at Ye Yu with puzzled expressions. Salary? What salary?
Does Ye Yu really intend to hire them, rather than submit to him?
Everyone was stunned.
Seeing Ye Yu act foolishly again, Miss Valentine pulled Ye Yu to the corner and said, "Boss, are you stupid? They're willing to submit to you, why would they need a salary? Do you really think they're short of money?"
"It's understandable that ordinary agents are short of money, but they are high-level agents. Even I have never been short of money. Do you think that 1 million Berries you received is a lot?"
"If they are willing to submit to you, they are your subordinates. You can simply give them orders to do things."
Ye Yu was taken aback. He did want to hire them, but he was somewhat surprised to hear Miss Valentine say that.
Ye Yu thought for a moment, "If I were to hire them, I would have to pay them 1 million Berries a month. And since there are nine of them, wouldn't I have to pay them over 100 million Berries a year?"
"Wow, I really can't afford it."
Yoru suddenly realized that he was really broke; 1 million Berries wasn't even enough to pay them a year's salary.
The currency in the One Piece world is 1 to 10, with one tael equivalent to 10 Berries.
One million Berries is only equivalent to 100,000 Ryo in the Naruto world. As a high-ranking agent, this salary is obviously low.
Miss Valentine finds it laughable that Yoru actually wants to hire these people.
Because Night Feather simply cannot afford to hire them. After all, the cost of hiring them cannot be limited to just wages. With all kinds of expenses added up, Night Feather would need several hundred million Berries a year to hire them.
Yoru sighed, "Looking at it this way, my 5 million Berries bounty isn't worth much after all."
Listening to Ye Yu's sigh, Miss Valentine sighed and rubbed her forehead, "My God, boss, I really don't know how you cultivated your strength, but you still don't have much experience in navigating the ocean."
