One Piece: Roar of Justice

"Zebra!"

Not long after Astrod arrived, William hurried in from the outside, calling Zebra's name.

"What's the matter, William?"

"Astrod told you, Zebra."

William said.

Zebra nodded and said.

"Well, that Stuart is gone?"

"Well, he just came here to convey the news. The conferring ceremony will be held inside the walls of St. Innocent the day after tomorrow. In addition, Kakulista will invite me to his dinner party tomorrow night."

William said.

"Very well, it seems that the proposal you made with Kakulista was approved, which is good news."

Zebra said with a smile.

"Then are you going tomorrow?"

William asked.

"Of course, I also want to see what kind of person is the biggest cardinal in the walls of St. Innocent."

"Okay, I'm going to contact Stuart right now and explain your matter."

After finishing speaking, William was about to leave, but Zebra stopped him.

"Wait a minute, William."

"what happened?"

Hearing Zebra's words, William stopped, turned around, and looked at Zebra.

"You don't need to tell them about me. After all, you are the one who accepts the title of nobleman of the Kingdom of Balegon, not me. This was my plan from the very beginning. Some things are more convenient to do in the dark."

"But."

Hearing what Zebra said, William seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted by Zebra raising his hand, and only Zebra said.

"Okay, this matter is settled like this. You don't have to argue with me. I can go to the dinner tomorrow night as your entourage. You should make some preparations first. I will talk to Lafitte later. .”

"That's fine."

William left, and Zebra found Lafitte as he said.

"Hey, Lafitte."

Lafitte is sitting at the table sorting out the refugees who have been taken in recently by the forces. Because of the fall of the Kingdom of Minia, there are many more refugees who came to the Kingdom of Balegon to take refuge this time than before. Lafitte has become one of the few people. The busiest one.

Zebra pulled a chair directly across from Lafitte and sat on it.

Hearing Zebra's greeting, Lafitte raised his eyelids and said.

"How did you come?"

"It's nothing, just to see you, are you used to what you do every day now?"

"Ah, I did this kind of thing when I was a magistrate before, but it was a little more than that time, and I can handle it. I'm afraid you didn't come here this time to tell me these things."

Lafitte said.

"Well, just now, the bishop of Caculista in the wall of St. Innocent sent someone to hold a conferring ceremony for William the day after tomorrow. There will be a dinner tomorrow night."

"Hehe, the nobles are really different. Every time they talk about things, they are at the banquet."

Lafitte said with a sneer.

"Don't worry, we will be part of the banquet soon."

"I don't expect that at all."

"It's already been decided, so just give William the status of aristocrat?"

"What's wrong? He was originally a nobleman, even if he made me a nobleman, I would feel uncomfortable all over. Although I hate pirates, I am still a pirate after all."

Hearing Zebra's words, Lafitte raised his eyes and asked.

"After the things here are over, what are your plans?"

But Lafitte was interrupted by Zebra before he finished speaking. He put a finger in front of his mouth and said with a light smile.

"Shh, it's still too early to say these things, let's deal with the current matter first."

"Yes, any plans?"

"Of course, I came to you mainly to talk about this matter."

Zebra smiled mysteriously and said.

On the second night, like the previous dinner party, William contacted Stuart, and Stuart brought him to the gate of Kakulista's mansion, but there was a little difference. This time William brought an entourage—Ze Bra.

"I'll take you here, Mr. William."

Stuart said respectfully that he now feels very lucky. Although there was a little bit of friction before, his goal has been achieved and he has successfully caught up with William, a potential stock.

William nodded to Stuart, and walked in with Zebra.

When I came to the restaurant, I saw Kakulista's old face with a smile on his face, and on the other side of the table, Captain Piero was already sitting here. There is a young man wearing a naval justice cape.

"Long time no see, Kakulista-sama."

William's eyes did not stay on Piero and the young man beside him, but looked at Kakulista with a smile and said.

Hearing William's words, Kakulista's old face was also full of smiles, and he stopped his shoulder with a smile and said.

"William, I have good news for you today."

"Oh? I am looking forward to the good news from Lord Kakulista."

As he said that, he was stopped by Kakulista and sat in his seat. Zebra's arrival did not attract Kakulista's attention at all. After all, it is normal for nobles to bring an entourage, but From the moment he entered the door, Zebra's eyes locked on one person, Piero sitting on the other side of the dining table.

"Ok?"

As if feeling Zebra's scorching gaze, Piero looked at Zebra strangely.

Only then did Zebra realize his gaffe, and quickly lowered his head. William also noticed this, laughing and laughing.

"I'm very sorry, Chief Piero. This follower of mine has never seen the world, so he must have been shocked by your heroic aura."

But Piero didn't seem to hear William's words at all, frowning and looking at Zebra with his head down.

"Have we met somewhere?"

"...You are joking, sir, how can a servant like me have the opportunity to meet someone like you."

Zebra said.

But Piero shook his head and said.

"No, I think you look familiar. Where is your hometown?"

".In a small village in the West Sea, I was brought back by Master William. You must have misunderstood me."

At this time, Kakulista also clapped his hands and said.

"Okay, Chief Piero, don't bother with a servant. Now that everyone is here, let's talk about our next cooperation."

"Of course, it's a great honor, Kakulista-sama."

Hearing what Kakulista said, William said with a smile, and Piero also took his eyes back from Zebra at this time, just like what Kakulista said, there is no need for him to talk to Zebra. Pulling this 'servant' is a waste of thought.

"That would be wonderful, Kakulista, I can't wait."
