Chapter 343: Level 4 Pirate Crew

Hearing Dasuki's question, Lin Yu nodded and said:

"I indeed want you to follow me."

Dasuki frowned and asked, "Why?"

The women around Lin Yu were not only beautiful but also powerful; Dasuki truly could not figure out what point of hers the other party had taken a liking to.

Regarding Dasuki's question, Lin Yu did not answer immediately, only looking at her carefully.

After he had subdued Bonney, Jewelry, Smooge, the Namon sisters, Domino, and little Sadi, his crew count had already reached twenty-six; that is to say, he only needed to add one more person for his pirate crew to upgrade and gain new abilities.

At the same time, it would allow him to bind the Thriller Bark, enabling him to freely control this island-ship.

And the two targets he could recruit now were the Dasuki before his eyes and the other, the Ice Witch of the Whitebeard Pirate Crew, Wadatsumi.

However, because Bai Huzi and the others were killed by him, under such a great blood feud, he feared it would be somewhat difficult to recruit the Ice Witch.

Under these circumstances, Dasuki was his only choice at present.

After a period of silence, Lin Yu looked at Dasuki and said:

"I am about to prepare to establish my own power, needing many crew members and subordinates; for talent like Young Lady Dasuki, I naturally have a great need."

Once Lin Yu entered the New World, he would definitely need to establish his own power to prepare for his future ascent to the Void Throne and replacement of Im; this reason was indeed plausible.

Hearing the reason Lin Yu gave, Dasuki frowned slightly; for some reason, she felt the other party was not telling the truth.

Afterwards, Dasuki spoke:

"If you promise me not to be a pirate and not to harm the people, then I will agree to board the ship."

Although Dasuki had already learned of Lin Yu's righteous deeds from Sister Tina, she still wanted to emphasize it in advance to avoid future disagreements between the two sides due to differing views.

Dasuki's adherence to justice was extremely persistent; if Lin Yu made her a pirate or harmed the innocent, she would rather die.

As a Marine, she was in no way willing to violate the justice in her heart.

As for the matter of Lin Yu once killing the Celestial Dragons?

Sorry, Dasuki did not care about this matter.

"Agreed." Regarding Dasuki's request, Lin Yu nodded directly.

He had once passed the civil service exam and secured a position, so naturally he could not do anything to harm the innocent.

Hearing this, Dasuki breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I agree to you."

Afterwards, Lin Yu opened the cage, let Dasuki out, and looked at her solemnly saying:

"Dasuki, are you willing to join my pirate crew and become my subordinate?"

Dasuki blinked her eyes, looking utterly stunned.

"Pirate crew?"

Wasn't it agreed not to be a pirate? Why are you asking me to join your pirate crew again?

"Ahem."

Sensing Dasuki's confusion, Lin Yu coughed once and quickly searched his mind for suitable words.

Afterwards, he looked at Dasuki and said:

"Being a pirate is merely my identity in the underworld; only this way can I quickly learn information about those pirates and then further hunt them down."

"Don't your Marines often send people to pose as pirates and infiltrate the Four Emperors' ranks as undercover agents?"

"Alright." Hearing these words, Dasuki reluctantly agreed to Lin Yu's explanation.

The matter of the other party killing the Celestial Dragons indeed required a pirate identity to operate; anyway, as long as he wasn't truly acting as a pirate, it was fine.

Afterwards, Lin Yu launched the invitation to Dasuki again.

"Dasuki, are you willing to join my pirate crew and become my subordinate?"

"I am willing." Dasuki nodded.

As Dasuki's words fell, several system prompts quickly appeared before Lin Yu's eyes.

【Ding! Dasuki joins the pirate crew, automatically...】

【Ding! The pirate crew meets the upgrade requirements, upgrading in progress...】

【Ding! Pirate crew upgrade successful, becoming a Level 4 Pirate Crew; now opening more positions and special positions...】

【Ding! Obtained new pirate crew functions...】

【Ding! Unlocked extra ship binding slots; current ship binding slots: 2/3】

【Ding...】

Seeing the prompts before his eyes, Lin Yu could not help but smile.

"Dasuki, I will first let Sister Tina take you to get familiar with the others; from now on, we are all family."

Smiling and saying this to Dasuki, Lin Yu clapped his hands.

"Young Master."

Anna and Shalria walked into the cell and respectfully said:

Seeing Shalria walking in, Dasuki was shocked in her heart and thought in astonishment:

So this is the Celestial Dragon kidnapped by Lin Yu... I didn't expect her to actually become Lin Yu's maid, and she is so obedient...

"Take Dasuki to find Sister Tina and let her choose a room." Lin Yu casually instructed.

"Yes, Young Master." Anna and Shalria respectfully answered once and led the still-shocked Dasuki out of the cell.

After Dasuki left, Lin Yu finally began to carefully study the upgraded pirate crew system.

【Level 4 Pirate Crew: Can recruit fifteen combatants, two chefs, two lookouts, two navigators, one helmsman..., six special posts, totaling thirty-six crew members】

【After recruiting thirty-six crew members and the total bounties on the ship reach three billion, it can upgrade to a Level 5 Pirate Crew, opening more crew positions and obtaining special rewards】

Seeing that nine more crew members still needed to be recruited to continue upgrading, Lin Yu let out a sigh.

Adding nine crew positions with every level up was somewhat speechless.

After upgrading to a Level 4 Pirate Crew, Lin Yu could bind ships from two to three.

This way, he could finally bind the giant island ship, the Thriller Bark.

【Ding! Detected a ship belonging to the host. Bind?】

【Ding! Binding successful.】

After binding the Thriller Bark, Lin Yu closed his eyes to feel for a moment and nodded in satisfaction.

At this moment, he could already control the Thriller Bark at will.

Next, Lin Yu began adjusting the Thriller Bark's direction, making it head toward the Sabaody Archipelago at a slow speed.

This way, around noon the next day, the Thriller Bark would reach the waters near the Sabaody Archipelago.

Meanwhile, the brother-in-law Page One had already contacted Queen, the Big Top of the Beasts Pirates, successfully returned to his side, and made him return to the Sabaody Archipelago.

By then, Lin Yu could go capture Black Maria based on the message sent by Page One and subdue her.

With Lin Yu's current abilities, plus Smoothie, Scratchmen Apoo, and Reiju, they were enough to deal with Queen and his group from the Beasts Pirates.

After adjusting the direction, Lin Yu continued to study the upgraded Pirate Crew System.

This upgrade gave Lin Yu a new system ability.

That was: the Ability Specialization Training Room!
