I am a Celestial Dragon!
Chapter 371 The terrifying slave market!
“Nani, brother???”
In the distance, Ace, who was quite sensitive to the word "brother", immediately stood up with his eyes wide open.
"What's going on, uncle, you... are you the younger brother of Qibu Kaiten Yaksha?
You...hey? "
"Well……."
After listening to Ace's words, Gawain quickly stopped Ace. It was just a simple word. It didn't matter if he didn't use it. If he used it again, it would seem like something was weird.
After stopping Ace, Gawain clapped his hands gently and motioned for everyone to look at him.
Then, Gawain explained with a wry smile.
"As we all know, Doflamingo comes from the Don Quixote family.
Even the current patriarch of the Don Quixote family, my good friend Musgard, is Dover's blood uncle.
Intermarriage is very common among the major families of the Celestial Dragons. Although my Gawain family is from a single line, judging from the seniority...
Dover, maybe he really is my cousin... "
After the words fell, Gawain quickly turned his head to Dover, and then he quickly spoke to Dover, changing the topic at hand.
Just listen to him speaking to Dover seriously.
"Doflamingo, I believe in your promise for the time being. Before you violate the rules of my Black Bird, I reluctantly accept you as one of us.
But correspondingly, it is your deserved contribution.
Lucky! "
Gawain greeted, and Lu Qi immediately took two steps forward, stood beside Gawain and bent down to listen.
Gawain continued.
"Send your people to accept the joker's power in the underground world. In the next period of time, this will be your focus!
In this section, regarding arms and Devil Fruit trading, let’s change our sales thinking.
No new weapons or heavy weapons will be sold, and all famous swords and excellent guns and sticks will be kept for ourselves, which will be used to arm our forces in the future.
As for the deal between Dover and Kaido, haha...
Just cut it off!
Even if it can make us a lot of extra money, I don't have the consciousness to increase the strength of the pirates! "
After the words fell, Gawain glanced at Dover from afar, and Dover waved his hand gently without any concern.
At the same time, Lu Qi suddenly knelt down in front of Gawain and said loudly that he obeyed.
After Lu Qi received the order, Gawain couldn't help but fall into thinking, because the most important business under Dover was not arms, but human trafficking!
While gently rubbing his forehead with his right hand, Gawain couldn't help but sigh.
According to the information he had obtained in the past about the forces under Dover, how big was the human trafficking run by Dover?
So big that every human trafficking base in the world has considerable connections with Dover!
Either Dover directly controls it, or it pays a fixed fee to Dover...
Just speaking in such a general way may sound a bit dry, so let’s talk about it with data.
In the world of One Piece, more than 140,000 lives are sold every day!
Note, it’s not 140,000 per year, but 140,000 per day!
Among them, most of the slaves who were trafficked came from villages in various places that were displaced due to pirate activities and the crackdown by the world government.
Every moment, a considerable number of villages all over the world are destroyed at the hands of one terrifying creature after another without the world knowing anything about it.
For example, this example must mention One Piece.
In the original plot of One Piece, after Luffy released the prisoners in Impel Down, a large number of relatively more vicious pirates returned to the sea.
Among them, the strongest one is naturally Barrett who is imprisoned on the sixth floor of Impel Down City.
And what did Barrett do? After he came out, it didn't take long for him to plan the Ralph Drew Eternal Pointer Project with his collaborators.
Once this plan emerged, the island where he implemented the plan immediately became another tragic place where residents needed to be displaced!
Most of the new generation of slaves on the sea appeared in this large-scale relocation event.
Because in a world like Pirates, where although the technological level is high-end, the people's livelihood level is extremely low, it is too easy for slave traders to interfere with large-scale population migration events!
In addition to Barrett's actions, Zefa's actions were also included. In the original plot, in the process of Zefa's attempt to use explosive rocks to destroy the world, he caused the Zuge Island to turn into a dead place and allowed countless refugees to escape in a hurry!
Please note that not every refugee is eligible to appear at the auction after being captured by slave traders!
And when they were not released from prison, there were not that many destroyed islands at best.
When we watched the anime and saw the auction scene in Shampoo Land, we couldn't help but feel that there were only so many people being auctioned.
There are more than ten or twenty people on stage in one group. Even if they take the turn for one night, there may not be twenty groups, right?
But in fact, the auction house in Shampoo is the most high-end auction house in the world!
Because this auction house is almost the only auction house in the world that regularly welcomes Tianlong customers!
The slaves who can appear in this auction house are all the best among slaves. If the goods are not good enough, the Tianlong people will really kill the auction house manager and his family.
In short, Mr. Rayleigh can be considered quite capable if he can regularly appear in this kind of lineup that is being auctioned...
Ahem, that's a long way to go, Rayleigh can't represent all slaves.
In addition to the official auction house in Shampoo, slaves are being sold all over the world at all times!
Gangsters need to buy slaves to work and act as thugs, rich people need to buy slaves as workers, and nobles need to buy slaves to maintain their luxurious life.
Even ordinary people who have made a fortune or saved a piece of land and a house will mostly buy one or two slaves to serve as housekeepers or assist in work.
In short, some darkness will never be clearly drawn in comics. All you need to know is that there is a word called up and down!
When rulers all over the world are vigorously advocating the slave-holding culture, it makes sense that the slave market in the pirate world is more exaggerated than that in the United States.
Just like the old American movies we often see, perhaps in the countryside of a certain village, wandering slave traders will start selling work again and again.
This guy looks pretty good, five thousand beli.
That guy looks good, ten thousand beli.
There are even ones worth a few hundred beli.
There are many such things, population is one of the popular commodities in this world, and the world of pirates is so dark...
Thinking of this, Gawain let out a long breath, tapped the back of the chair with his finger, and then shook his head and said.
“As for the issue of slave trading, I can’t just let it fall on my lips and decide!
After all, the number of people involved is so large that it scares me! "
After the words fell, Gawain pursed his lips with a deep expression and rubbed his forehead again.
There was one thing he didn't say, and that was...
He couldn't even make the decision to abolish the slave market now!
Even in the United States in the past, the famous Civil War was triggered by a piece of legislation over whether to hold slaves or not.
A country fought a vigorous civil war before finally deciding the final winner.
At this moment, Gawain, although there are many strong men gathered around him, his forces can barely resist for a while even if they face all the pirates and all the known navy.
But in the final analysis, Gawain's influence on the entire sea is too small!
What's more, all he can decide is the slave sales system created by Dover in the past few years. He is not the Five Old Stars and cannot represent the world government. He cannot order people around the world to give up slave culture.
Even if the slave system under Dover was forcefully stopped by Gawain, it could not stop the world's desire to buy slaves.
If there is a demand, there is a market. If Dover doesn't do it in this market, it can only be torn apart by others bit by bit and taken over, and it can be done by itself!
In the past Pirates comics, Dover once said something that was regarded as outrageous by many viewers.
He said that if he was really arrested and imprisoned, the whole world would be in turmoil!
In the comics, no one really feels that the world is in turmoil, because the world of the comics revolves around Luffy and his group.
In Luffy's world, he couldn't see what was happening in the world of Dover's arrest order.
The fact is that after Dover's arrest, the slave markets around the world will be reshuffled!
It was a large-scale operation involving global gangs, and it was an economic war that could plunge countless villages into trouble.
Many people wonder why the Golden Emperor, Dover, or the World Economic News is in charge.
Each of them does not have monster-level strength, and they tremble a few times when they see the Four Emperors.
But they just have an inexplicable confidence!
In fact, the status and identity of these three people are equivalent to the national bank, the national stock exchange and all news organizations in the country.
If all three industries went bankrupt and disappeared overnight.
So do you think there will be unimaginable turmoil in this country?
Because of this, their confidence can be understood by others!
Because in this world based on comics, Luffy's story is a dream story, but the story of people like Dover is a naked reality!
Reality is far heavier than dreams.
Thinking of this, Gawain's pursed lips turned slightly white. Beside him, Reilly thought for a moment, then raised his hand and patted Gawain's arm.
"Hey, Captain, don't think about the things that are and are not.
Do you think we are still just pirates, marines, and little brats who want to play pirate house?
To be honest, I have had an extremely in-depth understanding of this industry of slaves.
Although I am always sold, but believe me, you can only understand more by being sold.
I'm often too lazy to read the information that Shaqi and Kalifa handed you, but I can guess what you know from that information.
What you look like now, is it...?
Is the slave market difficult to handle under Dover? "
"Fuck, whisk, whisk!!!"
The moment Rayleigh finished his words, before Gawain could respond, Dover himself laughed.
While laughing, he spread his hands arrogantly and said.
"The legendary Pluto Rayleigh is just a legendary sailor and pirate after all. How can you understand what is hidden behind the word market!
Any industry that can use the word market, whether it is the entertainment market, industrial market, food market, building materials market, etc.
The existence of every market is an inseparable part of today's society and a basic puzzle piece for maintaining social stability!
As for the slave market I control, Fufu, you don’t want to ban that kind of thing all at once, do you?
Gee, do you want me to laugh at your kindness, guys? "
At this point, Dover raised his right hand, but he suddenly felt pain when he was halfway up, so he had to switch to his left hand.
As his left hand slid in the air, countless lines appeared out of thin air, and then intertwined in the air to form a complete market structure diagram.
Pointing to the line pattern, Dover continued to sneer.
“Once my slave market is banned, the demand gap caused by this action will cause dissatisfaction from the king’s nobles to the petty bourgeoisie family members on the street.
The world is changing and moving. Every day, different families transform from slaves to civilians, from civilians to petty bourgeoisie, from petty bourgeoisie to rich people, from rich people to aristocrats, and from aristocrats to civilians or even slaves.
Just like the flow of water, as long as everything flows in a world with the concept of slaves, cutting off the circulation of water forcefully will only bring about polarization between the upstream and downstream, that is, the result of floods in the upstream and drought in the downstream.
Such a result will result in nothing more than a breach of the dam, which will impact both the upstream and downstream markets!
As for my slave market, even though even I know it, everyone who works in this business will be called a damn bastard by you!
But I must explain for them that they also have families, and they also need this industry to maintain their income!
If you really hate slave traders, then just let the whole world no longer have the concept of slaves!
If there is no concept of slaves, then what they do is pure crime and goes against the flow of society!
As for now, even the World Government and Mary Joa are taking the lead in slavery. In this environment, although my people are bastards, they just have no conscience!
They only violate morality, but they are not purely illegal! ! !
Of course, some of them will definitely violate the rules and expand the scope of slave inspection from the stipulated...children who have lost their parents to children from good families.
Some of them will also reach out to some families who live in harmony when they cannot find people who are homeless and unable to survive to sell their goods!
That kind of behavior is a crime, but punishing crimes is a matter for the Five Stars and the Navy. What does it have to do with me?
the most important is…….
Did you know that the slave industry supports not only slave traders, but also the vast majority of ordinary slaves?
Unlike Raleigh, who easily sneaks into my auction house to make extra money, the vast majority of slaves who appear in small places come to us on their own and sell their children, even their wives and Own! "
Having said this, Dover looked at Gawain coldly, and saw him staring into Gawain's eyes and speaking word by word.
“Gawain, you don’t really want to give up my slave market completely!
You can rectify that market, and you can add more rules and better execution methods to it!
But once you give up completely, let alone the slave traders in the future who are hungry for superiority, it is just about the slaves who need to wait to be sold every day!
There is no market for me to feed them, nor for the families who buy them to feed them.
How do you ask countries around the world to create the environment and resources to support the lives of slaves out of thin air! ! !
Indeed, many of the people I trafficked were poor innocents.
But apart from those, more people ended up without their families and futures. Even without the support of the slave traders who relied on them to make money, they couldn't even eat a full meal and were destined to starve to death. guy! ! ! "
Having said this, Dover stood up excitedly. He no longer looked at Gawain, but at everyone around him.
While watching, he slapped the table viciously and said.
"I have no fucking chance to learn any bullshit in my life!
All I know is that if you want to ban slaves, wait until you truly rule the world before you do it!
If you are in your position, planning your politics, and have not reached that height, but you have made that high level of decision.
That kind of decision must be irresponsible! "
After speaking, Brother Ming looked down at Gawain and saw him speaking to Gawain in the most serious tone he had ever spoken.
"Believe me, Gawain, even though I am trash, I know better how trash-like people can live more appropriately in today's world!
Don’t be one-size-fits-all. Even if this is an industry that seems like it shouldn’t exist, don’t use a one-size-fits-all approach when it’s inappropriate!
I will give the market to you and your people, and I will work with you to plan for the current slave market!
Let's plan the details together, raise the threshold of this industry, and reduce the chaos in this industry!
Gawain, you have a kind heart, but what you want to do is not a hero. You want to be the king at the highest level, right?
In any case, now is not the time to give up on the slave market completely, absolutely not! ! ! "
