Roger Town has a unique geographical location, it is a bridgehead from the East China Sea to the great waterway and an isolated island on this long route.

Even the business and pirates heading to the great waterway could not bypass this only supply point, so Roger Town naturally became a natural transportation hub and trade center in the East China Sea.

It was the birth of One Piece Roger in the place of death, because the celebrity effect has become the most lively tourist attraction in the East China Sea.

At the same time, Roger Town is also a military important place that the Navy government attaches importance to. Generals at the Navy headquarters and above are stationed here for many years, carrying out important tasks of surveillance, clearing up, maintaining stability, and controlling the East China Sea.

Economy, culture and military can be used both. The prosperity of Roger Town is far from being described as the scale of a "town". It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a central city in the East China Sea.

Against this background, the sea roads around Roger Town can be said to be a thriving sail, and hundreds of boats compete, revealing a prosperous scene everywhere.

The closer to the coastline of Roger, the more sailing boats sailing on the sea.

When the dock of Roger Town appeared faintly in sight, Garen and his group were filled with continuous white sail shadows.

Such a landscape is different from the magnificent waves of nature on the sea, but it also shows the unique creativity of human beings in another style, which is enough to make people pleasing to the eye.

However...

Smog looked at the sailing ships around him with a gloomy face, his sharp eyes pinned to the black flags that were floating in the wind:

"Those ships... are all pirate ships?"

The situation in Roger Town was much beyond Smoger's expectations:

As a military city with elite troops stationed in the Navy headquarters, not only does it not feel like the stroke is clear and upright, but there are pirate ships everywhere that are completely unconcealed.

What Smoger couldn't understand even more was that-

The armed ship he was riding on was flying a naval flag;

When the pirates saw this flag, they did not show any hostility, and there was no sign of running away.

Obviously, these pirates are already commonplace with the navy's flag.

“What’s going on?”

Smoger asked Wallace directly next to him, knowing that the young reporter in front of him was a native of Roger Town.

"this..."

Wallace explained with a strange look: "Rogge Town has always been like this."

"What?"

The cigar butts that Smoger was holding suddenly lit up a little, and the smoke rings he spit out became much heavier:

"Hasn't Roger Town always had its own naval generals stationed? How could these pirates be so arrogant?!"

“This is because…”

Wallace said seriously:

"The navy stationed in Roger Town... has never been very clean."

“Not very clean?”

Garen couldn't help but ask:

"Didn't you recommend me to come to Roger Town for a bounty?"

"That's because Roger Town is already the best choice in comparison."

Wallace explained helplessly:

"You have always been in a high position. I'm afraid you are not very clear about the bottom-level flies."

"If the pirate hunter generally goes to exchange for large bounties, the Navy of Roger Town will draw about 30% of the currency to 'lose'."

"Thirty percent? Wouldn't I have to get 3 million less Bailey?"

Galen questioned in surprise:

“This is the best choice?!”

"cut..."

"It seems that you are really a nobleman who has never left the palace!"

But Nami was speaking. She popularized Garen in a slightly sarcastic tone:

"Thirty percent of the kickbacks are already the most conscientious price on the Donghai market."

"If you go to some naval branches to exchange for bounties, you may not get a penny, and you will lose your life by the local emperor there!"

"yes!"

Wallace sighed again:

"At least, the Navy in Roger Town can still do business after getting the money, and can also ensure the safety of the 'customer's's own."

Smog was already trembling all over when he heard it, and misty white smoke began to appear between his silver hair.

"Damn it!"

Smoger sucked the remaining half of the cigar in one breath and threw the cigarette butts heavily on the ground.

He looked at the pirate ship shaking towards the dock of Roger Town around him, and said with gritted teeth:

"It's fine if you embezzle, are they not even arresting pirates?"

"But..."

Dasqi also stood up and said strangely:

"The current garrison general of Roger Town is Major Hammer sent by the Navy headquarters."

"I asked a little before coming, and I heard that he has always had the reputation of strong bandit suppression and excellent political achievements!"

"Of course, 'great political achievements'!"

Wallace smiled helplessly:

"All the pirates who were caught refused to pay the money!"

"Using those guys who don't know the current affairs is enough to gain the reputation of winning the bandit suppression."

It was Wallace's careful explanation that Galen understood the great strategy of the Roger garrison Major Hammer:

Guard the level leading to the Great Waterway in the East China Sea, and then charge tolls from every pirate group who wants to break into the Great Waterway.

The pirate group that paid the money was brothers. Not only could they freely navigate without being blocked by the navy, but they could also buy weapons, ammunition, nautical charts and other prohibited materials from Major Hammer's channels.

As for those pirates who refused to pay, they naturally became Major Hammer's law enforcement achievements.

“Toll station plus service area for pirates?”

Garen couldn't help but exclaim to the Roger Town Base Director: "This guy is such a genius!"

"Major Hammer is indeed a very smart person..."

"To be honest, with his caution, it is unlikely that this kind of blatant exposure today would be exposed."

Wallace did not bother with the matter and said strangely:

"In theory, he should have known about Colonel Smoger's notice of the handover of the garrison."

"I thought he had cleaned the traces long ago, so I didn't tell you the truth about Roger Town yesterday."

"No..."

Smoger took a sip of the cigar and then spit out a thick smoke:

"Our original plan was to sail in the front half of the great waterway from the Navy headquarters, and then reach the East China Sea through the Denunciation Mountain."

"But it happened that Lieutenant Karp was about to return to the East China Sea, so we took the ride-hailing ride of the Hailoushi warship."

"From the Navy headquarters, we took advantage of the convenience of a triangular vortex and directly crossed the windless belt to reach the East China Sea, saving a lot of time."

Smog said in a deep voice:

“That is,…”

"The estimated arrival date on the notice is twenty days later."

"I see!"

A few glimmers of excitement flashed in Wallace's eyes:

Major Hammer's intelligence was wrong, so before he could hide his evidence of guilt, he happened to run into Smoger, the Justice Navy that took over him.

He had already smelled the big news.

"Oh..."

Smoger snorted coldly and said to Dasqi again:

"Dasqi!"

"I'll go to the naval base there with my own eyes first, and you can quickly lead the team to follow!"

"Forehead?"

Dasqi was still a little overwhelmed.
