One Piece: In the Name of the Father

Chapter 133 The Changing Pine Island
Prince Jay didn't know whether he was in a good mood or a bad mood at this time, it was too indescribable to describe this feeling.

Golden Lion randomly dispatched a pirate to Songbai Island and found Prince Jay.

He conveyed to him the sad news of King Yagyu, and the Golden Lion's claim that the Pine and Cypress Kingdom will continue to use the Golden Lion's flag in the future, and continue to be protected by the Golden Lion.

All in all, in a word, the golden lion still protects Songbai Island, and the golden lion doesn't care about the rest.

However, the envoy of the Golden Lion came directly to convey this meaning to Prince Jay. Obviously, the Golden Lion still wanted Songbai Island to be able to stabilize the situation on the island with a stable succession to the throne.

This is not how sympathetic the golden lion is, how much he loves the Liusheng family.

This is all because Songbai Island is different now. It is the largest slave trading market in the New World. If it is in chaos, it will also affect the Golden Lion.

However, the Golden Lion has always believed in the survival of the fittest.

The Golden Lion will not forcibly designate who will be the master of Songbai Island.

Even if Songbai Island is doomed to chaos, Golden Lion will not change his style of doing things, at least not for Prince Jay.

Prince Jay didn't have time to be immersed in the grief of his father's death. His top priority now was to ascend the throne smoothly.

Originally, if King Yagyu hadn't had an accident and died like this, then Prince Jay's succession to the throne would be a certainty.

But the situation is different now, King Liusheng died, but he was not the only one who died.

Along with King Yagyu, there were [-] elite naval troops compared to Songbai Island.

Those were all the belongings that the Pine and Cypress Kingdom managed to put together, and now, they were gone all of a sudden.

The occurrence of this situation had to make Prince Jay vigilant.

The people that Prince Jay is wary of are none other than the pioneering nobles of the Pine and Cypress Kingdom.

Especially the Megan family and the Matsurizawa family. Among them, the Megan family is the most arrogant. As early as when King Yagyu was still alive, they dared to blatantly exceed the standard to absorb the population. The ambition is evident.

As for the Matsurize family, this is because of the changes in the Matsurize family in the past few days.

Matsurize's adjustment of troops was in the name of the annual military parade of Earl of Xiaohe, and after that it was just a mobilization according to the situation.

Prince Jay's current situation made him have to be careful of the special actions of local princes like Matsurize.

The envoy of the golden lion came to Songbai Island, and in an instant, the entire Songbai Island was alarmed.

People like the Golden Lion put up their flags and officially came to Songbai Island. Since the founding of the Songbai Kingdom, it was only when King Liuyu successfully joined the Golden Lion for the first time and came back.

In this case, the intelligence spies of the Megan family, the Matsurizawa family, and a group of pioneering nobles in Shipwreck City had sent the news back to their respective territories early in the morning.

In response to this abnormal situation, all the pioneering nobles have their own coups to deal with.

The most powerful and richest Marquis Megan, the way to deal with this situation is very simple, and Bailey cleared the way.

Megan Stewart directly instructed his spies in Shipwreck City to take out all the valuables stored in Shipwreck City, go directly to bribe the envoy of the Golden Lion who has not left, and directly ask why he came this time .

Megan's strategy was very successful. The envoy of the golden lion refused to say anything at first, but seeing more and more Baileys and treasures, he naturally succumbed to Bailey's coercion.

And like a group of small pioneer nobles located in the north of Songbai Island, their strategy is to keep an eye on the actions of Prince Jay and Marquis Meghan in order to deal with future events.

Among them, the most efficient and cost-effective one is Matsurize.

Matsurizawa directly summoned Mellon. Faced with the current situation, Matsurize could only summon Mellon to have a frank talk.

At this time, on Songbai Island, except for Prince Jay, the messenger of the Golden Lion, and Marquis Megan who got the news from the messenger, no one would have thought of the death of King Yagyu.

Of course, Mellon knew that this matter was his plan from the beginning to the end. He knew that his plan had succeeded since the envoy of the Golden Lion came to Songbai Island.

So this time, facing the inquiry of the lord of Xiaohe, Matsurize, Mellon told Matsurize everything from the beginning to the end.

After Matsurizawa finished listening, he only said one word to Mellon.

"Okay, Mellon, this matter, from now on, stop here, especially don't let Madam know."

Melon was very moved. Don't let his wife know this sentence. Melon knows that Matsurizawa wants to protect himself.

Although Ayane said she would marry a chicken and follow a chicken, marry a dog as a dog, but she still has a lot of affection for the Yagyu family.

However, with the more and more violent behavior of the Yagyu family in the past few years, Ayane alienated them, especially Prince Jay who didn't know how to restrain himself.

Matsurize asked Melon to keep it a secret because he was afraid that Ayane would be sad, and he was even more afraid that it would be bad for Ayane if she hurt her fetal gas.

As for the despicable things Mellon did in this incident, Matsurizawa still maintains a principle, that is, as long as Mellon does not endanger himself, then he will tolerate him.

Today's Songbai Island has undergone great changes, and this change is common to the whole island.

In Shipwreck City, it was Prince Jay who was aggressively recruiting troops, and frequently summoned officials and nobles from the territory directly under the Songbai Kingdom.

Like Earl Maris and Earl Tam, they are inseparable as if they lived with Prince Jay every day.

As for the localities, especially the pioneering nobles, starting with the Marquis of Megan, the first changes occurred.

The Marquis of Megan began to transfer the original hidden household, that is, the population that had exceeded the standard in private, to the public.

Not only that, but he is still brazenly continuing to expand his population size. At the same time, like Prince Jay, he is also recruiting and expanding his force.

Not to mention anything else, the Marquis of Megan originally had a population of 10 according to the regulations of the Pine and Cypress Kingdom, but now they have a population of 20.

In order to cope with the increasingly tense situation, a group of pioneering nobles in the north of Songbai Island began to form an alliance to deal with the future together.

And like Xiaoheling, Song Lize has never ignored the population regulations of the Songbai Kingdom from the beginning to the end, but Song Lize has never relaxed the policy on population absorption from the beginning to the end.

Today, it is no exception, there is only a small change, that is, it can absorb people who take the initiative to seek refuge.
