One Piece: Roar of Justice

Chapter 106 Negotiations

A few hours after the hapless nobleman was taken away by Yard's men, Yard came to Kakulista's mansion.

At this time, Kakulista no longer had the stamina of strategizing before, his originally neatly arranged hair was also in a mess, his face was full of anxiety, and the crutch that he never left his hand didn't know that it was taken by him. Where was it thrown? At this moment, he was pacing on the ground in a panic. He couldn't see the posture that an old man in his sixties should have at all, and he couldn't see the weakness in front of Alexander III at all.

He frowned, looked at Yard standing in front of him with his hands tied, and said in a deep voice.

"The main problem now is to find the mastermind of the poisoning. Others should not pursue it too much. Remember, don't expand the scope of the attack. This will make it easier for the real culprit to escape. Moreover, according to the current situation, we should not Too many enemies."

Kakulista is very clear and understands the seriousness of the current situation. He still doesn't know who the person who poisoned his son is. If he continues to make enemies, it will only make his situation more dangerous.

Yard naturally understood this, but his current position was no longer on his side, so he nodded and echoed Kakulista.

"I understand, don't expand, don't make too many enemies."

Although Yard nodded in agreement, his tone was a bit insincere. If it was before, Kakulista would definitely be able to find Yard's abnormality, but Kakulista, who was in a panic, is no longer what he was before wiser.

"I will do as you say, don't worry, Kakulista-sama."

Hearing Yard's answer, Kakulista nodded, and waved Yard to leave, while he himself sat on the sofa, rubbing his brows vigorously with two fingers.

Just when Kakulista was distressed about finding the mastermind of the poisoning, the atmosphere in St. Peter's Wall, Storovs' mansion, was surprisingly depressing, and there were fewer people attending the secret meeting this time than before. Much more, and morale is not as high as before, the whole meeting room is full of gloomy taste.

"Austin was taken by that Yard guy a few hours ago."

A nobleman rested his chin in his hands and said in a deep voice.

Hearing the nobleman's words, the other people around didn't seem to have much reaction. Obviously, they also knew the news a long time ago.

Storovs' complexion also became more and more ugly, only to hear him take a deep breath, and said again in a deep voice.

"Who poisoned it?!"

Storovs glanced around the room, and all the nobles swept by his gaze lowered their heads.

After feeling Storovs' gaze, the nobleman sighed and said.

"My lord, no matter who did this thing, it has already happened now. The problem now is how to deal with the current situation."

When the other nobles in the room heard what he said, they all complained bitterly.

"Yeah, Kakulista has gone mad."

"Yard and his police department have started a massacre of nobles! Austin is an example!"

"We must stop them!"

The nobleman who spoke first looked at Storovs with a solemn expression and said.

"Yarde and the others have captured seven nobles so far. You know, he is just a dog of Kakulista, not even a nobleman. If it wasn't for Kakulista's instruction, he wouldn't have It is impossible to dare to do this, Kakulista may not be taking revenge at all, but using this opportunity to eliminate dissidents and get rid of all those who threaten him, what does he want to do? Rebellion?!"

Hearing his words, the surrounding nobles also gasped and echoed loudly.

"We must report this matter to His Majesty!"

But Storovs shook his head and said.

"It's useless."

Storovs said with a stern face.

"I don't know what kind of magic Kakulista cast on the Pope. His Majesty trusts him very much. Especially after this incident, the Pope seems to believe that Kakulista is a loyal person who will do everything for the Pope." He is a loyal minister, and those who attack and slander him are naturally sycophants."

Storovs said these words very seriously, and there was a sense of helplessness in his tone.

After hearing what Storovs said, a nobleman immediately shouted angrily.

"madness!"

"Silence!"

Storovs squinted his eyes and glanced at the nobleman, and said.

"Don't let me hear this kind of words again!"

".Yes, my lord."

The nobleman Storovs said also lowered his head and said in a low voice.

The conference room became quiet in an instant, but no one agreed with Storovs. Obviously, their views were similar to that of the noble who was reprimanded by Storovs.

After a while, no one spoke until a nobleman shook his head decadently and said.

"Can we just wait here to die? Waiting for Yard to bring someone to our house?"

Storovs looked at the nobleman, his eyes darkened, he sighed leisurely, and then spoke slowly.

"Perhaps, it's time for us to find William and try to talk to him."

As soon as Storovs finished speaking, a voice came from outside the meeting room door.

"Don't bother me, Mr. Storovs, I'm right here."

The door was slowly pushed open, revealing William's face, and two figures following behind him, Zebra, and a person that Storovs was also very familiar with, Scarlett.

"Scarlett?!"

Seeing Scarlett appearing behind William, he was the one with the ugliest face. Of course, it wasn't just him. Scarlett was the maid who broke into their secret meeting before. Except for Storovs, there were few A nobleman saw her face.

Storows' complexion turned into a liver color almost instantly, with blood vessels protruding from his forehead, and he stared viciously at William who suddenly appeared, and Scarlett who followed behind him, but Zebra It was subconsciously forgotten by him.

"I don't know why Mr. William appeared here?"

Although Storovs's face is ugly now, he is still trying his best to maintain his elegance as a nobleman.

"Excuse me for interrupting, Mr. Storovs, I think you are looking for me now. In order to avoid trouble, and of course, to save you some energy, I came here on my own initiative."

Standing behind William, Zebra had a smile on his mouth. Among other things, at least William has become more and more proficient in acting after being honed during this period of time. Just look at the unbeatable smile on his face. I can't help but get angry, but it's a pity that since Storovs can sit in the current seat, it has fully proved that he is not an ordinary person.

Although he had vaguely guessed something, Storovs was still trying his best to control himself at this time, although this kind of restraint was better than no restraint, only Storovs said almost gritted his teeth.

"I don't know what you're talking about, Mr. William?"

William hated Storovs' pretentious attitude very much. Compared with this Storovs, he even felt that Kakulista was better to deal with. Feeling the unbearable hatred in Storovs's mouth, William didn't need to pretend to be annoying. He glanced at a melon-eating nobleman at the side, and Zebra who was following him immediately instructed him to pick up the He lifted him up by the collar of a nobleman, as if he was catching a chicken, and then 'gently' put him on the ground.

William sat down on the stool that still had the warmth of the previous person, crossed his legs, and looked at Storovs with a smile.

"If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Storovs, and all the adults here, you should be looking for the person who poisoned Mr. Kakulista's unlucky son. You don't need to look for it, just I am the one sitting in front of you."

The nobles in the conference room immediately became agitated after hearing William's words. Everyone was whispering, and Storovs' face gradually changed from liver color to maroon. Before they had time to speak, On William's side, he had already raised his hand, only listening to him speak.

"Don't thank me, everyone, I just did a small thing within my power. I heard from my distant cousin that you are planning to poison Lord Kakulista. It just so happens that Kakulista and I The cooperation of adults is not very pleasant, and I am also very happy to help you with this little favor."

"Damn it!! Scarlett!! You are a foodie!"

Storovs finally gave up maintaining his majesty, almost swearing, and the veins on his neck were already protruding.

In fact, Storovs's mood is also understandable. Before that, he had been suspecting that there might be an inner ghost among the nobles who participated in the secret meeting, but he never thought that this inner ghost was someone from his own mansion. William, Lista's accomplice, had already reached out to his house, which sent chills down the spine of Storovs, the important minister of the Balegon Kingdom.

Scarlett was yelled at by Storovs. As a woman, she couldn't help but hide behind William, but William patted her face with a normal expression, and looked at Storov with a smile. S said.

"You said the wrong thing, Mrs. Storovs, Miss Scarlett has always eaten my family's meals. By the way, I heard from Miss Scarlett that your attitude towards her is very unfriendly. This job It's not very satisfactory, I have another purpose for coming this time, which is to change a job for my distant cousin, what do you think, Lord Storovs?"

Storovs snorted coldly, and the beard under his nose was also puffed up, just listening to him say.

"What does Mr. William want to do, can I, a little cardinal, manage it? If there are any relatives of yours in my house, you'd better take them away this time. I have a very bad temper. Well, Miss Scarlett should have told you too."

William smiled and said.

"That will not trouble you, but that is not what I am here for."

Storovs said with a sneer.

"Then tell me, Mr. William, what did that old Kakulista ask you to tell us?"

William shook his head and said.

"No, no, no, it's not Kakulista, but me personally, and I want to cooperate with you."
