One Piece: In the Name of the Father

Chapter 348 New Pattern of the White Dragon Kingdom II

After all, no matter how much Matsurize didn't care about it, no matter how much he didn't pay attention to government affairs, it was impossible for him to let a person with a different heart sit in the position of prime minister.

Even if it's just a guess, it's just a possibility, it's something a king can't tolerate.

At this moment, Baritu recalled that sending the dead soldiers was really a foolish move. Isn't this just deception!

Although the dead man died cleanly, whoever guesses will think of him, and he will think of Baritu, who is the number one suspect and the mastermind behind the scenes.

After the morning meeting, Kazak and Tam immediately took action.

It not only temporarily withheld and sealed up all the business of Baritu's house, but also blocked the entry and exit of Baritu's house.

An investigation was also launched against the old disciples of Baritu.

For this matter, Kazak often clashed with Tam.

Although Tam betrayed Baritu, what he now relies on is the personal connections brought out from Baritu.

Many of Baritu's old disciples took refuge in a blink of an eye, but his door was closed.

If this is to be pursued to the end in one brain, and one size fits all, then in the end, the political resources that Tam currently relies on will have nothing.

In the end, if you don't say anything about promotion and salary increase, maybe even the current half-truth deputy prime minister will not be able to keep it.

But Kazak was very firm, saying yes, the prime minister committed a crime, and it is impossible for all the people under him to be innocent, and he has been pressing Tam with Matsurize's decree.

Also, if in the end, Prime Minister Baritu is the only one to be convicted, then this is too fake, where is the kingdom's face!
However, this is exactly why Matsurize asked Kazak and Tam to review Baritu's case together.

The two of them are not on the same page, one wants to investigate to the end, there will be a big cleansing above the court, and the other wants to make a difference, and take the opportunity to win over a group of political resources for himself in the future.

In doing so, Baritu's case will neither be expanded nor let it go away, making Baritu's case anticlimactic.

In fact, this is exactly the case. In the process of examining the ancient disciples of Baritu, Tam has no reason or face to cover up those who have proven criminal evidence.

In the face of some minor crimes, the evidence is unclear, and there is Tam, Kazak can only warn with words.

But even so, there was no expansion. At night, before the case of Baritu was investigated, more than [-] of his henchmen had already been arrested.

They are all officials in key departments. If it expands, I am afraid that the reserve of officials in the officialdom accumulated by the White Dragon Kingdom for many years will not be enough, because there may be more than half of the people in the court.

On the baritu mansion.

Baritu hurried out of the study room where he had stayed all day, and walked outside the house. He ignored his crying eldest son, his current wife and their youngest son who also looked panic-stricken.

When Baritu came outside the mansion, no one stopped him, but the leader of the group of soldiers who led troops to block his mansion stood in front of him, as if he had been waiting for him for a long time.

Seeing this man, Baritu strengthened his determination after thinking about it for a day.

Because this person is Paul, the commander of the guards of the White Dragon Kingdom.

He is Matsurize's personal bodyguard, the eldest son of Dragon Shadow Chief Abin, and the only devil fruit capable user in the White Dragon Kingdom, except for the royal family, who was bestowed on him by Matsurize.

Paul appeared here, and personally led troops to blockade Baritu's mansion. Obviously, he came here not only for the blockade, but this is not enough for him to come here as a dignified guard commander. This is really a bit overkill.

And seeing how he waited for Baritu for a long time, this was Matsurize's last chance to save himself.

If Baritu leads people to forcefully break through the blockade or if he can't think about it and can't get out behind closed doors, then this last chance will be gone.

"Master Prime Minister, Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time, please!"

"Also ask Paul to lead the way."

Paul led Baritu quietly into a solid carriage covered with a black cloth.

So no one knew that Baritu, the prime minister of the kingdom who had been imprisoned at home, went into the palace again quietly.

"The guilty minister sees your majesty, and your majesty is blessed and safe."

"Get up!"

Paul brought Baritu into the palace, brought it to Matsurize's study, and after bringing it to Matsurize, he closed the door of the study with a sensible backhand and guarded it outside.

"Baritu, you say you are a criminal minister, what is your crime?"

Sweat covered Baritu's face and back, and his clothes were soaked in sweat. He wasn't hot, but he was struggling in his heart.

Confused about whether to tell the whole truth.

He thought about it for a day in his own home, and the result he came up with was that his only savior, the only way out, was with His Majesty the King.

The two chief officers of the joint investigation team, one is Kazak, who has a deep grudge with him, and the other is Tam, who rebelled from his sect.

Needless to say, these two people, Kazak, will definitely arrest him for all his crimes, and will not show any mercy.

Not to mention Tamm, this kind of person, in order to cleanse himself, get rid of his entanglement with him, and save his reputation of betrayal, he must punish himself to death.

This is also the case, the most ruthless person is the one who punishes himself. Maybe Tamm will give him a few crimes that Baritu does not have.

But in the White Dragon Kingdom, the founding king, Matsurize, is the true king of the world and the dictator of the universe. As long as he leaves him with a way out, he can still be saved.

And Paul personally led people to blockade his mansion, and it was His Majesty the King who wanted to leave him a way out.

Now it's up to Baritu himself to be dishonest.

Of course, Baritu couldn't reveal all the evidence of his own crimes. If there are too many evidences, he may not escape death.

As for the evidence of his own crimes, this is the art of speaking, and the evidence of crimes with tails and solid evidence must be said.

What Baritu is hesitating now is whether to tell the whole story about Megan County to his monarch.

"The minister is guilty, the minister indulged the minister, corrupted the law, ran amok in the market, hurt people's lives..."

The evidence that Baritu could be caught basically all came from his prodigal eldest son.

"Boom, pop!"

The ceramic teacup on Matsurize's table was broken, and Baritu felt as if his heart had been crushed.

Obviously, what I said was not in place!

"Baritu, how long have you been following me?"

"Back... back to His Majesty, it's been almost 14 years!"

"14 years, how many 14 years can there be in a person's life, I also want to give you one last chance because of the love of so many years, it seems that you don't care!"
