Arkham in the pirate world

Drum Island, Sakura Kingdom.

Since Valpo, the king of the Drum Kingdom, was driven away by pirates and disappeared, after a national election, Dalton, who is also a noble, replaced Valpo and became the new king, and changed the country's name to "Sakura". It means that the country is as warm, pure and noble as the cherry blossoms, and it should also be as gorgeous and beautiful as the cherry blossoms.

Although it was renamed "Sakura Kingdom", Cigu Island is severely cold all year round, and it is difficult for ordinary cherry blossoms to survive on the island. Therefore, the symbolic meaning of this country's name is greater than its practical significance. However, I heard that Dalton has entrusted A, who travels all over the world, to The Cam Group has found a variety of cherry blossoms that can survive and bloom on Winter Island and transplanted them. Perhaps a new cherry blossom forest will grow soon.

Dalton is undoubtedly a benevolent king. After he came to power, he abolished various unreasonable laws enacted by Valpo, developed the economy through trade with the Arkham Group, encouraged the people to grow medicinal materials, and improved people's livelihood, making the entire country The country has gained new vitality. It has also cooperated with the Arkham Group to open a medical research institution and invite back the doctors who were expelled by Valpo, making the country once again a well-known medical power.

In the town, in a tavern, five figures were sitting around a round table with a variety of food and wine placed on the table.

"Q, do you still want to take revenge now?" Bashas tore at the thigh meat of some kind of wild animal and looked at the guy who looked like he might fall ill at any time.

"Destiny is often used to measure the value of human existence. Since fate has already judged those guys, why should we interfere?" Duogu Q said as he was dying.

"thief hahahaha"

Teach put down the newspaper, slapped it on the table, laughed and said, "I know that Bat boy is the same as us. This is definitely something he did. I know that his goal must also be to dominate the world." "

"Oh what happened?" Lafitte asked.

The geographical location of Cigu Island is actually slightly deviated from the seven routes leading to the Shampoo Islands. Therefore, the news about this country is quite blocked. This situation has only changed with the arrival of the Arkham Group. At least, the cargo ship that comes every three days will bring various newspapers under the Shadow Newspaper Company, giving the citizens of the Sakura Kingdom a new understanding of the world situation.

Teach handed the newspaper to Lafitte. After Lafitte read it, he handed it to others.

"The rookie pirate group with a bounty of over million is really awesome." Basas looked at the bounty in the newspaper, clenched his fists, then grabbed the Raspberry Pi on the table, and bit into half of it. It was like trying to eat Luffy and the others in one bite.

"Being able to escape from the pursuit of the Vice Admiral of the Navy Headquarters is not a small role, right? We can walk a little slower and wait for them in front. Taking their heads should make us famous overnight," Teach said.

East China Sea.

Saint Charmaine personally contacted Liszt and made a request to him, hoping to use Liszt's ability to save someone.

Even though it was a request, Charma Kesheng's tone was still very arrogant, with no attitude of asking for help at all.

"I heard that Jhin's injuries were cured by you."

Saint Chalmac did not come forward in person, but only used phone bugs to contact him. After all, he was also afraid of another wave of attacks, and his life was not guaranteed.

Hearing this, Liszt frowned.

As we all know, in the battle for the Sky Island two years ago, after seven days and seven nights of fighting, Liszt defeated the Beast Pirates' number one signature, "Fire Disaster" Jhin. What few people know is that Jhin was injured. More serious than people expected.

The injury caused by burst blood vessels is from the inside out, which is completely different from the outside in like that of a knife or gun. Although Jhin is an awakened person with animal devil fruit abilities and has amazing self-healing ability, this is exactly what happened. His ability to heal himself made his injuries quite troublesome.

Because this self-healing ability is the healing of wounds and the like, and after a blood vessel bursts, if it heals without being reconnected, it will be difficult to transport blood throughout the body, and the result will be similar to the severing of the meridians. Even with tenacity Even if he has no vitality to survive, he is also a useless person without much ability to move.

Therefore, in order for Jhin's injury to heal completely, the broken blood vessels must be reconnected.

However, blood vessels are different from limbs such as hands and feet. They are located under the skin. To remove them, the healed wound must be cut open again, and the flesh and blood tissue inside will also cause great trouble to the operation.

No one in the world would dare to perform such an operation, except Luo, who had the surgical fruit and could perform various super surgeries. However, Doflamingo did not hand Luo over to Kai even though he knew that Luo could save Jin. many.

The surgical fruit is the most valuable fruit in the world. Someone once offered a price of 50 billion beli, which is a little higher than the bounty offered by the Four Emperors. For this fruit, the Don Quixote family and the World Government came together in Beihai. After a game, Luo finally took away the fruits of victory.

The preciousness of this fruit is that the eater can perform immortality surgery on others after tapping the fruit's ability to a certain level. There is no doubt that the power of "immortality" is what every person with wealth, power, and power reaches their peak. The ultimate mystery that humans pursue, and a Devil Fruit that allows people to achieve immortality will undoubtedly make people jealous.

Doflamingo finally regained control of Luo. How could he hand over such a bargaining chip so easily?

Therefore, after the Beast Pirates searched for medical treatment in vain, the doctors made a suggestion. The person who tied the bell must also tie the bell to untie it. Since Jhin's injury was caused by Liszt, he should have some kind of power to control blood. .

This kind of power is not surprising for the devil fruit of the fantasy beast type. For example, Marco's immortal flames can restore people's health to a certain extent. Kaido's own dragon fruit, except for animal type devils, In addition to the growth effect the fruit has on the body, it also has other special powers.

Kaido immediately asked Jack to contact Liszt through the manager of Cessna Island, and Liszt used this as a condition in exchange for the right to trade with the country of Wano. However, the Beast Pirates only moved the Near Rabbit Bowl, Changying Port controlled by them serves as a designated trading port to limit the Arkham Group's penetration of Wano, so as not to affect the Beast Pirates' control of Wano.

Many people will be surprised that Liszt had a fierce fight with Jhin before and was bleeding badly, but now he wants to revive him.

Hard to understand

It's very simple. Jhin has a special position in the Beast Pirates and is Kaido's right-hand man. If he were to die, with Kaido's temper and character, he would definitely go crazy. But a crazy Kaido would obviously not If we continue to worry about the blockade of the other three emperors, it will cause immeasurable losses to the Arkham Group.

Moreover, there is another premise here, that is, why did the other three emperors block the crazy Kaido for Liszt?

Previously, the Three Emperors would unite to blockade Kaido because it was Jhin of the Beast Pirates who actively invaded the Arkham Group's territory. In addition, the Three Emperors did not want to see the Arkham Group be invaded by Kaido. The more they annex, the more they will unite.

Now the situation is different. If Jhin is killed by Liszt, then Kaido's revenge for Jhin will be the "benevolence" of the pirates. Kaido has the name to take action, and the other three emperors have no reason to stop him.

Pirates seem to be free, but there is no absolute freedom in the world. Even the four emperors have their own places where they are not free. There are rules that they need to acquiesce to, which are the principles, benevolence and righteousness that they insist on in their hearts. There is no These rules that everyone acquiesces to will also shake the foundation of the existence of the Four Emperors.

Therefore, from the beginning to the end, Liszt had no idea of ​​killing Jhin and uniting with the Beast Pirates to take revenge.

His real purpose was not only to knock off the claws extended by the Beasts Pirates, but also to take this opportunity to extend his own claws into the opponent's territory.

Sometimes, you should know how to make choices and advance and retreat, so that you can be at ease and turn something that was originally unfavorable to you into a situation that is beneficial to you, instead of letting the situation continue to deteriorate and slide in the most unfavorable direction.

However, almost no one knows about the secret agreement between Liszt and the Beast Pirates, and how Saint Chalmark got the news.

Undercover

Or for other reasons

In addition, Charma Kesheng, if you want to save someone, who is that person? It deserves such caution from a Celestial Dragon.

Suddenly, Liszt thought of the incident that happened on Cessna Island. He immediately guessed that the Celestial Dragon behind that incident was Saint Chalmac, and the person he wanted to save was undoubtedly related to him. Relatives who are related by blood, or family members.

So, does the fact that Charmache came to Liszt in person mean that Charmax confirmed that Liszt's ability can save his "family"?

Could it be that that person had some kind of blood disease?

However, these speculations are meaningless. Liszt's thoughts are divergent. Should he save a Celestial Dragon? What are the pros and cons of this matter?

Liszt only thought about these things in his mind and decided to agree to Charma Kesheng. However, how to agree is a skill. Liszt didn't want to let the Tianlong people get angry at him because he didn't save that person. Bigger trouble.

"Dear Lord Charmak, although my ability is quite special, I am not a doctor. If you need to save someone, you should probably find a doctor who is good enough." Liszt said.

After a moment of silence, Saint Charmak said, "Set up your conditions."

Alabasta is a large desert country located on Sentin Island near the Upside Down Mountain in the Grand Line.

In recent years, Alabasta has fallen into internal divisions due to a series of problems caused by water shortages.

After the "dancing fans" incident was exposed in the capital Albana, Kobra, as the king, not only failed to defend himself, but also failed to come up with a solution to the problem for a long time, which led to his declining prestige among the people. Most of the people , no longer trusts the once benevolent monarch.

After all, what the citizens need now is water, food, and the hope of survival, not the illusory things like patience and love that King Kobra talks about. Can we survive by being patient? Can we survive by being friendly to each other? ?

Disappointed with King Kobra, a group of young people in Alabasta gathered to oppose Kobra's continued rule, triggering a civil war.

Of course, behind this civil war, Crocodile's Baroque Studio secretly promoted the "Dancing Fans" incident, which was how they framed King Kobra and other incidents in which the king harmed the people.

Another example is the rebel army currently gathering in Catlea. There are also people from Baroque Studio inside, who are adding fuel to the fire.

These conspiracies, gathered together, made this desert country like a giant trapped in quicksand, difficult to escape. As the brains of this giant, King Kobra did not come up with any solution during this period, which also caused the country to an important factor in the outbreak of civil war.

Weak and incompetent

Although it is not very appropriate to use such a word to describe a caring, kind and kind monarch, this is how Cobra showed himself as the king of a country after all the unreasonable changes occurred in Alabasta. The biggest fatality.

Faced with the conspiracy against him, Kobra did not resist, did not investigate, and just endured it silently, letting the enemy's sword slash at him and the people.

Seeing the suffering of the people, I just used words to encourage them to be patient, patient, and patient again, and hoped that it would rain from the sky, but did not think of any solutions or propose any countermeasures.

In peacetime, Kobra would obviously be a monarch deeply loved by his people.

But in the current situation, Cobra lacked the courage and decision-making that a monarch should have.

It was these weaknesses of his that caused the situation in Alabasta to gradually deteriorate.

Currently, in the entire Alabasta, only the king's army in the capital, Albana, is still loyal to King Kobra.

In the rest of the places, Catlea is now occupied by the rebels, Rainland is Crocodile's base camp, Elmalu and Yuba have been reduced to ruins ravaged by sandstorms, and the two major ports have merchants from Hana and Tamalisk. , is clamoring for independence and hopes to establish a merchant regime. Other small oases scattered in the desert are also breaking away from the control of the royal capital and being stolen by careerists.

Alabasta, the superpower, was torn apart.

A benevolent king may not necessarily be a qualified king

Tamalisk, the port capital located in the east of the Kingdom of Alabasta, a ship sailed into the port, and the workers who were already waiting to unload the goods at the port were busy.

Thanks to the Arkham Group's cargo ships docking, people in the two port cities of Alabasta can still do some work and earn some wages, which they can use to buy cheap low-alcohol drinks and some pure water purified by seawater purifiers. Water can meet household expenses. Of course, these two kinds of water cannot be consumed for a long time. Drinking water will make people dependent on alcohol. Pure water lacks the minerals needed by the human body and can make people sick.

What is truly precious is the pure and white snow water that has not yet completely melted and is transported from the Cherry Blossom Kingdom of Ciguda Island on the freighter.

That snow water will be put into glass bottles and placed in stores. The price of that bottle of water accounts for one-tenth of a worker's daily salary. Therefore, most people would rather drink sour drinks. , too lazy to take a look at that kind of bottled water, people gave it a vivid name, lady water.

The Arkham Group uses these cheap drinks to exchange for ores, perfumes, fabrics, leather and other goods from Alabasta. After processing, they are then transported to various parts of the world by freighters, earning ten or a hundred times the price difference.

This is the huge benefit brought by the great voyage, which in turn triggered the plunder of capital

On the pier, two young men stood side by side. The man on the left had short dark green hair and a scar on his left eye. He was wearing a long red-brown windbreaker, a dark green belt, orange gloves, and a backpack on his back. A super long sword. The man on the right wears goggles, a robe that helps protect him from wind, sand and sun exposure. He has two guns on his waist.

The young man in a long red-brown trench coat looked at the coolies who were like ants carrying cargo for the giant ship.

They are obviously being squeezed, using cheap labor in exchange for a meager income, but they still have smiles on their faces, as if to say, they have income again today, and the next meal is provided, and their families do not have to endure hunger. hungry.

It's really sad

Then, he set his sights on the steamship that had no sails but could sail on the sea, had a tall chimney and emitted white steam.

It is said that the huge cargo ship named "Fearless" from the fearless shipyard in the East China Sea has reached the -ton level. Those sails of two to three thousand tons are like children in front of it, and there are only the towers of the deep-water port. Malisk, was able to make it stay, and Nahana, whose berth was shallower, lost a lot of business for it.

"Kosa, our cargo should be on the Dreadnought." The young man wearing goggles said with a slightly excited expression.

This was the first time he had seen such a huge ship. Anyone who sees something new would be very excited.

Kosha looked away, nodded slightly, and said, "Those people said they would come to pick up the goods today, so it should be the one who brought them."

"With that batch of goods, we will have a greater chance of winning against the King's army," said the young man wearing goggles.

"What are the chances of winning?"

Kosha glanced at the coolies, the giant ship, and the people who were waiting for the arrival of the goods like them. An idea suddenly came to his mind. Maybe their enemy was not Kobu who was trapped in the capital and did nothing. La, it's these people who are bringing new changes to this country, but it's the guy who seems to be full of good intentions, but is exploiting the people in another way.

He still has a chance of winning against the king's army, but what about those guys?

"Kosa, Kosha"

The voice of his companion awoke Kosha from his reverie.

"What are you thinking about? The appointed time is coming soon."

Kosha took a deep breath and said, "It's nothing. Let's go, Kebi, to meet our contact person."
