Chapter 148 Kuruda's New Bounty
But it seems that Kuruda still has to wait for three days.
After all, Ainz wouldn’t be back for another three days.
But there is some good news, even if it is very small.
During their free time, Gray Wolf and the other two told Kuruda that they were back in their original world, everything was normal and they were living well.
Kuruda was naturally very happy when he got the news from the headset.
In addition, Maple, Alan, and Lucy Luke also flew back to the Bole three hours later. Apparently, they had completed their purchase of supplies.
Sid and Ariel also reported what they had investigated.
Sid said that the twelve members of their main group have basically recovered after Yazisa's treatment and rest yesterday.
However, all of Ash's six Pokémon suffered some injuries to varying degrees and are still recovering. They also consumed a lot of energy yesterday and need to rest.
Among the eight monsters, the strongest ones, Barton and Zetton, are okay. Melba and Litora are aerial combat monsters, and their damage is very low and can be ignored.
Otherwise, Melba would not be following Patton and flying the Bole above the white clouds.
But the other four monsters don’t just compete with the top powerhouses on the opposite side in battle.
They were also targeted by those minions. After all, sometimes fear would be transformed into motivation for attack and anger. So the remaining four monsters, Gomora, Red King, El King, and Golzaan, although the attacks of these little ants did not hurt them, they were eventually targeted.
In other words, among the eight monsters under Kuruda's command, the only ones that are currently injured and need a period of recuperation are these four monsters.
But as for these four monsters, Kuruda immediately told Sid that it was okay. After all, there was the Ultimate Battle Machine. These monsters from the Ultra World that he obtained from the system could quickly heal their injuries and restore their strength in the battle machine.
According to Sid's report, the Ghost Corps suffered the heaviest casualties. This time, each regiment lost nearly 30% to 20% of its troops, especially the Ninja Corps and the Shadow Devouring Corps.
One is the regiment with the weakest overall combat effectiveness, and it is also the adaptation regiment. If they do not grow up, with their tiny bodies, their combat effectiveness will be even worse than that of the ninja regiment.
The casualty ratio of these two major regiments has almost reached 50%.
"I didn't expect that even with the high-tech weapons given by Gray Wolf, the casualties were still so heavy. Never mind. They were originally used as miscellaneous soldiers and servants. And when new partners come, the intelligence network of the Ghost Corps may have to be downgraded. Besides, as long as I have time, I can summon as many as I want."
Kuruda immediately thought to himself that as the overall strength of the Fallen Corps increased, the role of the Ghost Corps would indeed gradually decrease, and Kuruda knew that whether relying on the system or the abilities of some partners, he would be able to obtain a more powerful legion in the future.
The Ghost Corps will eventually become an ordinary intelligence network, miscellaneous soldiers and errands in his hands.
However, Kuruda would naturally have no mercy on the Ghost Corps, which had no intelligence in the true sense and were infinite in number.
Now it is time to continue to replenish the troops of the nine major regiments.
Ariel followed Sid and immediately reported the situation and their total gains so far.
They now have dozens of boxes of Baileys in their inventory, with a total value of more than 100 billion, not to mention the treasured gold, silver, jewelry, famous paintings, porcelain, etc.
There are also treasures from the sea and devil fruits. If you don’t count their types and strengths, they now have more than a dozen of them.
This does not include the four that Kuruda gave to CP 0 before.
Not only that, if there is any item in this sea that is as valuable as a devil fruit, it is only the famous sword.
But now in the warehouse of the Bole, there are quite a few such famous swords.
Currently they have one supreme sword, three great swords and five good swords.
These famous swords are all treasure-level weapons worth tens of billions to hundreds of millions.
Basically, these were either spoils from previous battles and acts of destruction, or found by the monsters in the ocean for Kuruda during sailing.
With such a huge fortune, the Fallen Pirates are one of the rare wealthy pirate groups, not to mention in the East China Sea, even in the Four Seas.
Ariel went downstairs after she finished her report, and then Maple and the other three came up to report the situation.
Common supplies, food, and materials for repairing the ship were all replenished.
Kuruda nodded to them with satisfaction, and the four of them returned to their posts, especially Maple. After all, the Bole had suffered some damage in the previous battle.
It needed repairs, so Alan and the two sisters sorted out all the supplies and put them in the corresponding warehouse.
In this way, the Fallen Group is recovering at a very fast speed. Even though the damage they suffered this time is indeed small, it is also very important to ensure 100% combat effectiveness and energy in this ocean.
Kuruda once again lay happily on the recliner, looking at the blue sky and white clouds in front of him and drinking the wine in his hand. At the same time, he was looking forward to the next news and the bounty order that the navy would issue to their Fallen Group.
Time passed like this, but after two days, the Fallen Group still maintained a peaceful life above the white clouds.
As for Kuruda, he was still lying on the lounge chair, basking in the sun and enjoying the breeze from the sky.
All the way to Kuruda, he looked at the clouds next to him, and then gave a mysterious and confident smile.
"Are you finally here? But it's a relief that this bird could find this place."
Just then, he saw a seagull flying out from the clouds in the direction he was looking.
Needless to say, this is naturally the newspaper delivery seagull from the World Economic News.
And the fact that Kuruda could actually say such words showed that it was obvious that the newspaper seagull that flew over was the one that often delivered newspapers to them and had some relationship with them.
"Is it because even though we are in the air, the East China Sea is still too small?" Kuruda muttered to himself curiously.
However, you cannot rule out the possibility that this seagull came here to follow the trail, considering that their Bole is not far from the place where they disappeared from the clouds before.
"Ugh." While Kuruda was still thinking, the seagull had already grabbed the mast with both feet and stopped there.
"I'm not short of money. Since you've worked so hard, here's the 1000 Beli." Kuruda said with a smile as he threw out several green Beli bills.
"Ugh." The seagull cried happily, then picked up the banknotes with its mouth and put them into its bag. At the same time, it also took out the newspaper that Morgans had sorted out and printed with great difficulty, as well as the bounty order issued by the navy.
With a flick of his mouth, the newspaper and the reward money were thrown directly towards Kuruda.
Kuruda took it immediately and started reading the newspaper.
Perhaps he was too absorbed in the task, so he did not notice that the seagull had left. After all, as an elite newspaper deliveryman, even a seagull would know that it cannot stay in one place for too long and must immediately deliver the next newspaper.
"That old albatross is really a headline-grabber." Kuruda said with a smile after seeing the newspaper headline this time.
It was clearly written on the newspaper in his hand.
"Is it beyond imagination or reasonable? The two emperors were defeated by corruption, and it was a complete defeat."
"With ten admirals and two emperors, is this the strongest rookie group, or the strongest pirate group today?!"
"Do magic and the dead really exist in this world?"
The black-clad warriors under the Fallen Group are collectively called the Ghost Group, and now there are nine major groups.
"The two new monsters added by the Fallen Group are suspected to have the strength of general candidates"
"It is confirmed that the devil fruits of the first four members of the Fallen Group are all very terrifying, the ancient beast Taotie's original power of chaos, and the twins with similar immortal power."
"As the ship doctor of the Fallen Group, Azisa took out a potion that subverted imagination and fully restored the two royal groups."
Ainz once again demonstrated the power of magic, teleporting the two great royal groups directly to the Navy Headquarters.
"A fierce battle broke out between the two Four Emperors and the Navy Headquarters. There was intense friction between the two sides. Finally, in the early morning of the day before yesterday, the two imperial groups broke out of the encirclement and left."
"Is this the Fallen Group trying to annoy the two Four Emperors, or are they deliberately targeting the Navy?"
There are indeed quite a few titles, but they are also very realistic, with corresponding photos, whether it is the two battles or Kuruda's calculations.
The text below also shows everything that happened, and there are even some added idioms and adjectives, which make the overall process more vivid and more appealing, allowing people to watch and immerse themselves in it.
"I'm an old hand at writing news. This big thing is louder than many of the things we've done before, and it can shake the whole ocean. Maybe this time I can really earn 40 reputation points in one go, hahaha."
Kuruda laughed as he put the newspaper aside and picked up the bounty warrant next to it.
Kuruda first took out his bounty order.
"Hahaha, it's indeed increased a lot." After seeing his bounty order, Kuruda couldn't help but widen his eyes and burst into laughter.
It was still the same bounty issued by the Navy last time. The photo and style had not changed. The only thing that had changed was the amount of the bounty.
"Captain Kuruda, the "Evil One", has a bounty of 970 million berries."
It increased from the original 350 million to the actual 970 million Baileys.
Although it did not break 1 billion at once, when he thought about the fact that he was still active in the East China Sea and all the activities he had carried out before, Kuruda thought that it was not the most shocking thing and did not match the terrible evil that a big villain could do.
Since he has not yet entered the Grand Voyage, apart from the previous destruction of the Goa Kingdom, he has not done anything that truly endangers the navy and the World Government.
This second reward, with a one-time increase of 670 million, is reasonable.
Anyway, he will do even more shocking and terrible things in the future, making the World Government and the Navy truly feel despair, fear, and anger.
