The Phantom Pirates, this was a very mysterious organization, and there were many rumors circulating about them.
But one thing was certain, and that was that this pirate crew was very strong. The Ocean Overlord Sea Dragon among them had the combat power of a Yonko, and their captain was an even more mysterious existence.
Of course, this wasn't the key. What really shocked him was that the person in front of him was from the Phantom.
It should be known that the Phantom didn't have many members. They seemed to be taking the elite route. Pirates who couldn't stand alone didn't even have the qualifications to join. Therefore, all the pirates from the Phantom, whether they were executives or ordinary members, were powerhouses.
At this moment, he looked at Vladimir with a sheepish smile, and said, "Big brother, I was just joking with you, you must not take it seriously."
"Hehehe..."
Vladimir chuckled twice. He didn't expect the Phantom's name to be so useful. A 300 million bounty pirate was scared into admitting defeat.
"I'll ask you a few questions, and you answer them well."
"Ask away. If I can answer, I'll be happy to answer." Daros said generously.
In fact, he even had some different thoughts.
Currently, he belonged to the Flying Sky Pirates, and the captain was the great pirate Golden Lion Shiki, a former Yonko-level powerhouse.
However, ten years had passed, and Golden Lion's strength had declined. In particular, losing his legs had greatly reduced his strength. Although the prestige of Golden Lion still existed, he could no longer be considered a Yonko-level.
And recently, over the past half year, the Phantom Pirates had risen to fame, with countless internal experts. The captain, Vladimir, was even more elusive, living like a mystery in the minds of others.
Comparing these two, it was clear that the Phantom had more prospects. The Flying Sky Pirates were already on the decline, while the former was the rising sun, and the latter had already begun to set.
Daros was thinking about how to transfer to the Phantom Pirates. Of course, the premise was that the person in front of him was really from the Phantom. He was still uncertain.
Vladimir didn't care about Daros's thoughts, and said directly, "How many days have you been on this island?"
"I was one of the first pirates to land, and I've been here for four days."
"Then tell me about the current situation on the island. Which pirate crews are worth paying attention to?"
"Hehe..."
Daros chuckled, revealing a smile that said, "I understand." "So, you're also here to find the 'great treasure'?"
"Stop talking nonsense, and tell me about the situation."
"Okay, I understand. You want to understand which opponents there are first, right? There are more than 100 pirate crews, large and small, on the island now, but they can be roughly divided into five major forces."
Next, Daros briefly introduced what he knew.
The five major forces were not a single pirate crew.
First, the Storm Pirates, currently located at the island's port. That place was occupied by them. They were a pirate crew that took the elite route. Including the captain, there were only eighteen people, but they had twelve pirate crews under their command.
Second, the Unicorn Pirates, currently entrenched in the center of Cake Island. That place was originally Big Mom's residence. This pirate crew was more special, and currently had the most powerful force, with more than twenty pirate crews under its command.
Third, the Lance Pirates. The captain was named Lance, a handsome man in his late twenties. He didn't have any pirate crews joining him, and didn't accept the allegiance of any pirate crews. Including the captain, there were only thirteen people.
"In addition to these three major captains from the chaotic sea area, there are our Flying Sky Pirates."
Daros explained seriously, "You should understand. The great pirate Golden Lion Shiki, just him shouting out, and many pirate crews will flock to him. He can also be considered a major force, and has temporarily taken in eight pirate crews under his command."
Hearing this, Vladimir nodded, and asked again, "What about the fifth major force?"
"This one is more mysterious." Daros spread his hands, and said helplessly, "Do you think, why do those two pirate crews in front of you have the opportunity to argue? If it wasn't for the existence of the fifth major force, those pirate crews would have been driven out by the Unicorn and the others long ago."
This was true.
Concerning the great treasure, ordinary pirate crews wouldn't have the opportunity to enter Cake Island at all, unless there was some great power behind them pushing them.
"So, what is the fifth major force?"
"I don't know." Daros shook his head, "Anyway, it's very mysterious. I guess those pirate crews joined forces and temporarily formed an alliance. I don't know the specifics."
This explanation was barely reasonable.
However, a small Cake Island had five major forces entrenched on it. The situation was more complicated than imagined.
"Doflamingo is really capable!" Vladimir thought helplessly, "This isn't gathering the rioting pirates, but igniting all the pirate crews that hadn't rioted yet."
The attraction of the great treasure to pirates was evident.
Just a piece of information that couldn't be confirmed as true or false had drawn out more than a hundred pirate crews, and this was only in a week.
However, Vladimir wasn't afraid at all. Leaving aside some rabble, he could just transform into the Sea Dragon and use the power of a Super-Yonko to forcefully suppress these people.
Just as he was thinking, the two pirate crews in front suddenly started fighting.
"They're finally fighting!" Daros sneered, "This is the border of the territory carved out by the Lance Pirates. They're going to die soon for causing trouble here."
"Is that so?"
Vladimir remained calm and watched quietly.
This infighting between the two pirates was just a small matter. He was more looking forward to it leading to some chaos.
"Since that's the case, I'll help you add some fuel to the fire!"
Thinking this in his heart, Vladimir's drooping right hand flicked his fingers.
Immediately, a beam of holy light flew out, and entered the body of a captain in an extremely secretive route.
In an instant, this captain felt a violent aura, and his killing intent soared, and he suddenly became truly angry.
"You're really courting death, daring to compete with us for territory, kill them all!"
He roared, and rushed over first.
Many onlookers noticed this scene, and were a little stunned. Although they hadn't noticed the holy light, they could still feel a hint of incongruity.
Vladimir smiled without saying a word. He was just using a little bit of holy light to suppress the negative emotions in others' hearts.
It was equivalent to a little stimulation. The holy light was no match for the negative emotions, and immediately drew out those killing intents.
For a time, chaos began to spread, and a large group of onlookers had to retreat hundreds of meters, to clear a space for these people to fight.
Seeing that both sides had become bloodshot, just then, a voice came from the direction of the ice and snow forest.
"Don't cause trouble, all of you get lost."
In his words, the ground under the feet of that pirate captain suddenly began to wriggle, as if turning into a thick liquid.
Vladimir raised an eyebrow, and fixed his gaze.
