Beco an Emperor?
Cyrus looked at the smiling Robin and shook his head slightly.
"The so-called 'Emperors of the Sea' is a title shouted out by pirates, which was then spread by the World Economic Journal."
As Cyrus spoke, he thought of Shanks.
Shanks had already gone to the Grand Line and made a na for himself, becoming a truly great pirate in the New World.
Besides himself, his pirate crew had also gained imnse fa.
However, the ti for him to be officially recognized as an Emperor of the Sea had not yet co.
The titles of the other three Emperors already resounded across the seas, while Shanks's bounty seed to have just surpassed one billion not long ago.
Of course, a billion in this era was already the pinnacle of the seas.
"True!"
Robin had only said it because she saw that Cyrus didn't seem to have a goal.
After Cyrus's reminder, Robin also recalled this fact.
"But it's not like I can't try."
The corners of Cyrus's mouth lifted, a hint of anticipation on his gentle face.
"If I'm strong enough, even if the pirates don't acknowledge it, I'll be worthy of the title."
If he could fight the other three Emperors before Shanks and display power on par with theirs, he might just snatch the title first.
What would happen to Shanks then?
With a bounty of over a billion, Shanks's current strength should have already reached the threshold of an Emperor-level fighter.
After all, Shanks's power lay in his Swordsmanship and his Three Colors of Haki, especially his Conqueror's Haki.
And the current Shanks was also entering his pri.
So, at that ti, would there be Five Emperors?
Cyrus stroked his chin, imagining the scene. He was actually looking forward to it.
"To achieve that, besides imnse personal strength, I'll also need a powerful faction!" Cyrus said softly, then looked at Robin.
As a historian, Robin was one of the few highly knowledgeable individuals in this world.
"What do you think if I start an association? The Hunter Association!"
Robin was a bit curious upon hearing Cyrus's words.
"An association for Pirate Hunters? It seems there isn't a specific one right now, but most Pirate Hunters on the seas are lone wolves, and so are even pirates themselves."
Robin was actually giving it serious thought.
But Pirate Hunters were not a unified group. Most were mavericks, all sorts of people.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be up to Cyrus to propose creating an association.
"No, not just Pirate Hunters. Treasure hunters, ruin hunters, even Marine Hunters, all of them."
Cyrus stroked his chin, his mind flashing back to another manga he had read before he was transported here.
Although most of the plot was hazy, he rembered the behemoth that was the Hunter Association.
"Huh?"
Robin was stunned for a mont, then gasped.
Although Cyrus hadn't said much, Robin's quick mind instantly connected many dots.
If he truly succeeded, this association would beco another massive power alongside the World Governnt, the Navy, and the Pirates.
But the difficulty of achieving that was imaginable.
"What's wrong?"
Hearing Robin's gasp, Cyrus turned to look at her.
"If it's as you say, the difficulty is far too great."
"Indeed!" Cyrus could naturally imagine this as well, but he had ti.
Besides, thods to extend one's lifespan or even achieve immortality were not non-existent in this world.
"One step at a ti. Maybe it can really succeed in the future. But if that's the case, I'll need to find so people."
Cyrus stroked his chin, sizing up Robin.
"Are you really going to do this? Isn't that too impulsive?"
Looking at Cyrus's expression, Robin felt a bit helpless.
This man, a few years younger than her, was far too action-oriented.
Did he have to do everything he thought of?
"Weren't you the one who brought it up? Now that I want to do it, you're not happy!"
Cyrus pinched Robin's nose and said in displeased.
"I'm not!"
Robin tilted her head, escaping Cyrus's hand.
"It's just that to accomplish sothing like this, to build a massive organization, you need a huge amount of money and manpower. Right now, it's just the two of us."
Robin reminded him.
"That's why we have to take it one step at a ti."
Cyrus wrapped an arm around Robin, stood up, and led her into the ship's cabin.
Of course, not to do anything untoward.
"Co, co! Let's brainstorm."
Cyrus stuffed a pen into Robin's hand and pushed her down into the seat by the cabin table.
"You're so smart. Try to formulate a plan to achieve the goal."
With Cyrus's hands on her shoulders, Robin turned her head to look at his expectant face and nodded helplessly.
"Alright, I can try!"
However, she also noticed Cyrus's mood.
He seed to have found his motivation.
In the ti that followed, besides his daily training and helping Robin train, Cyrus and Robin would brainstorm, formulating the so-called Hunter Association plan.
But creating such a plan was obviously not easy.
Just as the Eight Treasure Navy's ship steadily entered Reverse Mountain, sailing against the current, Cyrus and Robin were staring at each other in the cabin.
"Vetoed! This one is too complicated."
Cyrus pressed his hand on the papers on the table in front of Robin and said with a serious face.
"Chairman, you just don't want to morize so many things."
Having gotten to know Cyrus well during this ti, Robin looked at him helplessly.
He was so powerful, yet he could be so childish.
"Anyway, according to you, the preliminary preparations are nothing more than money, people, and a huge reputation on the seas."
Cyrus kept his hand on the papers, his eyes locked on Robin's, not giving an inch.
Making him morize so many things was absolutely impossible.
He was, after all, Cyrus "I Hate Studying."
As for the nickna, he had just made it up.
"So, our first step is to gain a huge reputation on the seas. Leave that to . Before the first step is complete, the plan is temporarily on hold."
As Cyrus spoke, he was about to lift the papers under his hand.
Smack!
Robin slamd her hand on the papers, a charming smile on her face.
"That won't do, my dear Chairman of the Association. Actually, the association can be established beforehand. As the chairman, you need to rember the association's rules. A successful organization must have so reasonable rules and regulations."
"Then you morize them. As my personal secretary, it's the sa if you morize them," Cyrus imdiately replied.
Robin was stunned, then even more speechless.
When did she gain the title of secretary?
But seeing Cyrus's unyielding stance, she could only nod.
"Alright, Mr. Chairman. But right now, our association only has the two of us. So, what kind of hunter are you, Chairman?"
"A Pirate Hunter?" Cyrus asked in return.
"No, you're the Chairman!" Robin shook her head directly.
"Then what do you suggest?" Cyrus frowned.
"How about 'Emperor Hunter'? As the Chairman, your targets can be the Emperors of the pirates!" Robin said with a smile.
Cyrus's mouth twitched.
He grabbed Robin's wrist and pushed her down onto the nearby bed.
Cyrus's eyes t Robin's, their faces very close.
"Woman, are you trying to get your Chairman killed so you can get a new boss?"
