The medium-sized island called Neham, like most islands, was developed by maritime trade.

In fact, the current New World is very different from the beginning of the Age of Discovery, at least not like the situation after the advent of the Age of Discovery, when the Four Emperors and the Navy confronted each other, and now the Navy still has the upper hand.

Because of the orderly management and its proximity to the Red Continent, Neuam Island is a relatively developed island.

In the vicinity of the maritime port, it has developed into a large trading market, where all kinds of goods from various places are available. Here, though, supplies are naturally the most popular cargo.

"Very fresh vegetables and fruits...... But how much more expensive is the price than in the first half?" Standing in front of a wholesale fruit and vegetable shop, Lelouch sniffed the apple in his hand.

"After all, this is the second half of the road~~ Even if it is the navy, there are still many places that have not been excavated, so the price of fruits and vegetables will remain high...... "The owner of the shop pù is a smiling old man, his fruits and vegetables are obviously much fresher than those of several other peers, and it seems that he has his own many channels.

"yes. Nodding with a smile, Lelouch agreed with the old man's point of view, then put down the apple, and said seemingly casually: "When I was in the port, I heard that the navy was going to the east of the island this time...... It seems to be a good place to live...... Can you grow fruits and vegetables?"

"Good eyes for guests!" glanced at Lelouch in surprise, and the boss gave a thumbs up: "To tell you the truth, according to the inspection of naval experts, that place is very suitable for growing fruits and vegetables......"

"I remember that the island seemed to have been discovered a few years ago, why is it only now that the land has been cleared?" asked a few more vegetables, and Lelouch asked a little more.

"Because the natives......" the boss sighed.

"Indigenous?"

"It's the natives who live on that island, for some reason, the natives on that island seem to be very disgusted with outsiders, they can't negotiate several times, and even hurt a lot of navies, but because the vegetation there is too dense, so it has been stalemate until now......" seemed to be very satisfied with Lelouch listening carefully, and the boss suddenly seemed to open the valve on his mouth, and said vigorously, for fear that others would not know his profound knowledge.

Lelouch squinted slightly, just listening.

The corner of his eye flashed, but Lelouch saw Helian Feng coming out of the corner not far away.

————————————————————————

"The Navy's ship is sailing in two hours...... "One hand is very easy to carry some of the daily necessities purchased by Lelouch, and the other hand holds an apple, and bites it heartily.

"We'd better get off at once...... If the navy gets into a fight with the natives, whatever we do on the island will get in the way. Lelouch frowned slightly.

He hated this kind of emergency caused by insufficient information, just like this time, if he couldn't find the compass left by Huangquan because of the development of the two parties, then it would really be a big loss.

"The boat is naturally straight to the bridge~~~" Helian Feng didn't seem to care at all.

Since time was pressing, the two did not stay long, and soon returned to the Black Flag.

"Just don't look back and rush to Mori Island!" With a wave of his hand, Helian Feng pointed very heroically into the distance.

……

"What do you want to do?" Lelouch frowned, looking at Helian Feng, who was arrogant and set off, but did not get on the boat.

"I still have something to do~~Don't worry~ I'll be on Mori Island soon!"

"What!!! you really sneak away to play! It's to play! Absolutely!!" Bored on the boat, Fa Xiu, who seemed to be about to die, suddenly jumped up! Without hesitation, he blamed Helian Feng!!

"It's better to get into less trouble at this time!" Lelouch frowned.

"It's definitely not that I'm bored~~Rest assured~~~" Laughing and waving his hand, Helian Feng had no intention of getting on the boat.

At this moment, the sails of the ship had been raised! The whole ship was slowly sailing out into the sea in the distance under the action of the sea breeze!

"Hey, hey, hey!! Kenshin!" Fa Xiu looked at Kenshin who was tying the cable with a complaining expression, and it was Kenshin who had raised the sails just now.

"Oh~~" With a standard gentleman smile, Kenshin scratched the back of his head.

"I think that since Helian said this, then what he wants to do will definitely not drag us down, after all, he may be more serious than all of us when it comes to finding Miss Huangquan......"

……

……

"Even if that's the case!, you should bring an assistant!The assistant !!! damnable!!!This space is too narrow!!" Fa Xiu, who looked unwilling, lay on the handrail on the side of the boat, bored and gnawed on the wood.

"I hope so......" Lelouch shrugged his shoulders and turned to walk towards the wheelhouse. This can be regarded as the first time you sail with a purpose without a compass, and you can't do it without being serious......

—————————————————————————

And on the other side.

Helian Feng, who had temporarily said goodbye to his companions, turned around and walked towards the largest pier on Nyam Island, where the navy was located.

Like Helian Feng, there were also quite a few people walking in that direction.

Even the owners of some shops stopped opening at noon, and with various expressions on their faces, they rushed towards the docks.

"Silver Fox...... Farquhar?" pushed his glasses, and a name flashed through Helian Feng's mind.

This is what he heard when he inquired about the news before, the rear admiral in charge of the strategy against Mori no Island this time. And the reason why the Navy left after two hours was because of an event on the docks.

Public execution from a native previously captured from Mori Island.

"Indigenous...... Huh?" Helian muttered.

The island of the forest is also a medium-sized island no smaller than here, and it is full of dense jungles, Helian Feng also knows the difficulty of finding a person, but when he heard that a native is going to be executed, Helian Feng has an idea. If you can have the help of the local natives, it seems to be much easier to find someone.

Slowly, around the docks, civilians gathered more and more......

And right next to the Navy warship, a two-meter-high platform has been erected, and it seems that it is the place of execution.

Helian Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at his surroundings.

"Huh?" casually raised his eyebrows, in these noisy crowds, Helian Feng found that in the raid position he liked, there was a person standing there, although it was constantly crowded with the increase of civilians, but it was as if it had taken root under his feet, and no one could squeeze him!

"Interesting...... narrowed his eyes slightly, and Helian Feng avoided the other party's gaze that swept to this side without a trace.

It seems that this execution itself will be very troublesome......

……

……

Half an hour later......

With the sound of neat footsteps, two rows of navies stepped out of the warship.

"Bang bang bang!" followed by the sound of a salute......

Then, a slender figure stepped out.

He was dressed as a rear admiral, with a reserved smile on his face and black broken hair, but if he looked at his appearance, I am afraid that no one would be able to see that he was already about thirty years old! That is, about seventeen or eighteen!

"Silver Fox...... Farquhar ...... Brother Lulu is really like ......" The corners of his mouth smiled slightly, and Helian Feng moved a few steps under his feet, like a swimming fish, and slid lightly to another position.

On the platform, I saw Farquhar wave his hand, call a navy beside him, and whisper in the navy's ear.

The Navy nodded and cleared his throat......

"Bringing the offender !!"

In the dark shadows, two navies slowly walked out of the [criminal] who was about to be executed.

The entire dock fell silent......

But then it was drowned out by the noisier discussions......

"No, it won't!"

"That's a human criminal??"

"Also...... Too small, right??"

……

……

And what caused the civilians to stop talking was really the [prisoner] who had already gone to the guillotine!

A little boy who looks up to ten years old!!

He has pale yellow hair that is not long or short, a small braid on the back of his head, only a pair of shorts, and the skin on his body is a beautiful bronz......

Although he is just a child, there is no fear of death in his eyes!

It's not at all what a 10-year-old should have!

"Interesting......" Helian Feng smiled slightly.
