Crocodile.
The pirate who once wreaked havoc and challenged the strongest man in the world, Whitebeard, one of the Shichibukai recognized by the world government, also known as Desert King Crocodile.
At this moment.
Crocodile didn’t know that someone admired him very much and wanted to be his subordinate, to add bricks and tiles to his career, and to help him make a name for himself.
If he knew, he would definitely want to cut off that person’s head.
The current Crocodile was very busy.
A few days ago, Crocodile left the Rainbase and defeated a group of pirates who wanted to invade Alabasta and continued to pretend to be Alabasta’s hero.
After enjoying a wave of heroic treatment, Crocodile returned to his camp in the Rainbase.
After coming back, Crocodile intended to take a look at the Baroque Works recruitment list. After all, he had just started to implement his plan, and he must not have too many powerful people.
“It’s really amazing! Nico Robin!”
Crocodile was sitting in front of his desk with a cigar in his mouth. The scar on his face was slightly ferocious, and he was holding a resume in his hand.
Crocodile slowly looked at the resumes of several people and picked out the resumes of Sasori and Deidara.
Crocodile then asked with interest, “Two guys who like to kill and fight? One is good at assassination and the other is good at making bombs. Can they be stronger than Mr. 5’s Bomu Bomu no Mi(Bomb-Bomb Fruit)?”
“I’m not sure
”
Robin shook her head and chuckled, “I just happened to find a few suitable people. Moreover, they have been in the area near Alabasta recently; it seems that they are not weak and they are all solitary people.”
“Then let them replace the last two senior agents!”
After that, he looked at Kisame, who had a ferocious Fish-Men image on his resume, and said, “Kisame
 Is this guy a wandering Fish-Men?”
“I heard so!”
Nico Robin sat on a chair and support her chin with her palm. She smiled and continued, “This Kisame seems to be a guy who can’t survive in the second half of the Grandline and doesn’t even have any bounty, so plans to go to the four seas and become a pirate
”
“Well, he doesn’t seem to be very smart
”
Crocodile took a deep breath with a cigar in his mouth and exhaled a breath of turbid air. He then whispered, “The strength of the Fish-Men is always a little stronger. Then recruit him to join in. He can be used as supplementary manpower!”
After Crocodile finished the arrangements, he said in a low voice, “These guys don’t seem to have received a wanted poster from the marine right now, but they seem to be useful if you are willing to recruit them
”
In this world, a marine wanted poster was obviously a stepping stone.
For some powerful pirates, no matter how strong they were, they were still not as good as those with marine wanted posters.
“Hmm?”
After listening to Crocodile’s words, Nico Robin couldn’t help but look at him in surprise. This sand crocodile didn’t seem to mention the last person!
Just as Nico Robin was about to continue to ask, Crocodile’s palm stopped on the last resume. The photo was of a young man with a very gentle smile, and he looked very harmless.
His name was Uehara Naraku.
Crocodile looked at Uehara’s resume and slowly blew out a smoke ring. His eyes narrowed slightly, “It seems that this person is not a dangerous person at all. There doesn’t seem to be any special abilities written on it
”
“There is nothing special about him.”
Nico Robin tapped her cheek with her finger and smiled, “This Uehara Naraku is only good at fighting and doesn’t seem to have a high IQ, right? Anyway, we were just looking for a few tools that could be discarded at any time
”
“Yes.”
Crocodile nodded with satisfaction, “You’re right, these guys are just disposable tools, you can make the arrangements!”
“Okay.”
Nico Robin smiled and whispered, “Then let Deidara and Sasori replace the last two senior secret agents and send Uehara Naraku and this Fish-Men Kisame to the Whiskey Peak near Upside Down Mountain!”
“You can handle this kind of small matter.”
After Crocodile finished this sentence, his face gradually became indifferent, “We can begin the next step [Dance Powder Rain Plan]. Let our king experience the anger of the people
”
“Yes.”
Nico Robin tapped her cheek with her finger.
In any case, the task that Uehara had given her had been completed. In one go, she arranged for a few people who had nothing to do to join the Baroque Works.
The only problem was.
Sasori and Deidara became the senior agents of Baroque Works.
Uehara and Kisame became intermediate-level agents. In fact, they were equivalent to the little bosses of the Baroque Works.
Therefore, when Nico Robin came back with the news, the expressions of the people present were a little subtle. While Deidara revealed a sinister smile.
This intermediate-level agent position

Was it equivalent to the Chunin of Naruto World?
Deidara, this guy who was eager to see the world in chaos, immediately said, “Hey, Uehara, if there is no suitable position, then let’s just get rid of those people in the position. Anyway, we are not good people!”
“Thank you, but I am a good person!”
After Uehara retorted, he touched his chin and said, “Robin, if I remember correctly, that Whiskey Peak is a must-stop place for those pirates who passed through the Reverse Mountain, right?”
“That’s right.”
Nico Robin nodded and replied softly, “Because many rookie pirates that have the strength to pass through the Reverse Mountain carry some valuable treasures.
If they are too careless, they will be plotted against by Baroque Works on Whiskey Peak. This kind of thing is also one of the ways to collect funds for the Baroque Works

After that, Nico Robin added, “But occasionally there will be powerful pirates who will clean up the people on the Whiskey Peak. For example, that Portgas D. Ace sweep away all the people on the Whiskey Peak
”
“It sounds like a good place!”
Uehara nodded and continued, “Then let’s start from there and let those rookie pirates in the whole world be frightened by Crocodile’s prestige. Let them know the horror of a Shichibukai!”
“
”
Everyone’s forehead jumped.
Oh, no, was this Uehara serious?
Of course, Uehara was serious!
The Reverse Mountain check-in mission is a must!
Moreover, he can also take the time to go to the East Blue Sea using the name Baroque Works. Then go to Loguetown and stand on the Pirate King’s execution platform to watch the scenery and play cards; go wreak havoc in Foosha Village and then beat up Luffy or something mission

He can also kill Arlong and his gang along the way.
By the way, rob Nami’s treasure.
These missions were definitely a mission with high rewards.
Even if the future Fire Fist Ace, Iron Fist Garp, Red Hair Shanks, or Dragon from the Revolutionary Army come to the door in the future, as well as Luffy who has grown up, and Sabo who has recovered his memory come to his door in the future to take revenge

Crocodile would carry it all.
“Well, let’s go and help Mr. Crocodile become famous. When we spread the name of the Baroque Works to the world. You can send the information of the other Baroque Works members to Kakuzu-senpai, and let him catch those people to exchange for the reward!”
“
 Yes.”
The expressions of the people present were subtle.
Nico Robin looked at Uehara and could not help but twitch the corners of her mouth, “He is really
 a person who is worse than I thought!”
After a moment, Nico Robin suddenly thought of something. She suddenly said, “Wait, Mr. Naraku, it is absolutely impossible for the employees of Baroque Works to know that the boss behind the scenes is Crocodile
”
Yes.
Crocodile was the national hero of Alabasta, and he was also a Shichibukai conferred by the world government. His identity must be kept secret.
“Don’t worry.”
When Uehara heard this, he couldn’t help but chuckle. He waved his hand and said, “I will arrange his identity clearly. Crocodile’s identity will definitely be leaked by the world government or the marine
”
This kind of thing

Uehara can play very well.
No matter how deep Crocodile’s identity was hidden, as long as Uehara played a little, it would not be long before everyone knew Crocodile’s identity.
Anyway

Crocodile wasn’t the first victim either.
