The Giants have been united for the last few hundred years, and in order to facilitate the decision, they have built a very grand open-air House in the city of Gafatlon. To the average human, this council house, with its one- or two-meter-high staircase and wide lawn, is like a large stadium.

Today, the chief of the "Burning Thorn Tribe", the "First Warrior of the Giants", Kron Gulabash, will hold a ceremony here to elect the new "King of the Giants". The inside and outside of the House of Representatives were lit up with lights and festive colors.

The morning sun shines through the branches of the "Tree of the Heavenly Gods", and wisps of morning glow gently pour on the city of Gaphat like golden threads, as if to clothe this magnificent city of giants with a hazy golden veil.

The open-air House of Representatives was already full of people, and the giants from the "Five Great Tribes" had already entered and waited for a long time.

Today they are going to witness a historic moment for the Giants.

For the first time in hundreds of years, a giant other than the Titans has been elected as the new Titan King.

In addition to the giants, there are many ordinary humans in the council field. They are lords, kings, and various high-ranking nobles from the human kingdom in the nearby seas... They were invited to observe the ceremony as witnesses to the enthronement of the Giant King.

......

Raymond knew that there would be a big war today, and that this House of Representatives would definitely become a "bloody Shura field", but he didn't want to be at fault for witnessing such a wonderful reversal. Moreover, he must be aware of the movements here in order to determine where the breakout plan begins.

There were tens of thousands of ordinary humans watching the ceremony today, and there were many cloaked and hidden beings in the crowd.

Raymond knew that they were the two "Endless Eight Emperors", the bosses of the [Blood Emperor] group and the [Elephant Emperor] group. Let me go, there are also some well-informed pirates, revolutionary soldiers...

They quietly entered and sat in some inconspicuous corner.

Today, many forces have their own plans, and the ultimate competition is who is higher in "Taoism".

Now they're all waiting for "a certain moment" to do it!

To cover it up, I am also afraid of a conflict in advance.

After all, Crone was a Navy admiral, and this time he took the throne and invited many senior officers from the Navy Headquarters.

The area facing the rostrum was filled with all kinds of navy uniforms and righteous cloaks.

And the person at the head is a strong man with a sideways face, and it is the [Sword Emperor] Ibn Qasim Gutupbi, one of the three major generals of the headquarters.

......

Compared with the caution of the bigwigs, Raymond is the opposite, high-profile and abnormal.

They did not hide their faces and hide their heads in inconspicuous corners like those sea thieves, but led a group of "ghost group" crew members to dress up and swagger into the VIP area where the invited high-ranking nobles were seated, just like the nobles attending a palace banquet.

From the beginning of the big battle, the place where the two "Endless Eight Emperors" fleet bosses are located must be the existence that is mainly cared for by the high combat power of the navy, and it is extremely dangerous.

In the entire council field, the safest place is probably only the place where these fat-headed and big-eared nobles stay.

Raymond was wearing a tuxedo, a top hat, a walking stick, and deliberately put away the long sword at his waist.

But even so, there is still a dangerous aura in him. It was an alert instinct cultivated over the years in a dangerous environment, and it was naturally alien to the pampered true aristocrats around him.

The noble lords couldn't notice it, but their high-level and extraordinary guards would take a few more looks, and they would be alert.

However, Miss Anna, who was holding his arm beside her, diluted the abruptness.

Anna was originally a royal princess with a graceful and luxurious temperament. She changed out of her tight-fitting pirate leather pants and put on a luxurious court dress, which was matched with the dazzling [Friggia's Charming Gold Necklace], which was dazzlingly beautiful.

She affectionately held Raymond's arm, and won the attention of the aristocratic lords and ladies all the way...

And Thor and Fat Cat can't pretend to be nobles, no matter how gorgeous they dress, they can't hide the burly and fierce gangsterism on their bodies.

They simply changed into the guards' outfits and followed behind Raymond.

But the monkey Jiji did not have stage fright, changed into a gorgeous aristocratic dress, wearing gold and silver...

This thief monkey also knows that he chooses jewelry for himself, and his aesthetic is unique.

He especially likes to wear a large thick gold chain around his neck and a large diamond ring on his finger. With a cigar in his mouth, he is dressed as a "social monkey"!

Colin and Nicole are on standby aboard the Golden Ghost in a waterhole outside the city, and according to their sources, there are already signs of a large-scale build-up of the World Lord's Navy outside the city. Now they don't dare to take the lead, they can only wait for the battle of Gafatron to start, and then find a chance to pick up Raymond and them.

Oh, and one more point!

Thor's bloodline atavology was also as smooth as expected, and his skin was golden after the true qi was running, although the color was slightly darker than that of Uli, but it was also a proper "golden bloodline".

But for some reason, the result was a little "different".

Thor's bloodline has advanced, accumulated steadily, and successfully taken the high-compatibility Titan potion deduced by Raymond to advance to Sequence 3. The level has advanced, and his comprehension of the law of strength has skyrocketed several times, but his size has not grown to the expected height.

Generally speaking, the Titans of Sequence 3 should be around twelve meters tall.

But now Thor is only about eight meters, although he is more than twice as tall as before, but it is also a little abnormal.

After some data testing, Lulu didn't find the reason for Thor's situation for the time being.

However, he thinks it may be a "genetic mutation" in the blood atavism. At present, except for the height that did not meet expectations, everything else is normal, and it is difficult to say whether the "genetic variation" is good or bad...

......

There was still a quarter of an hour left for the enthronement ceremony, and Raymond and the others sat in the VIP seats where a group of nobles and lords gathered chatting and farting.

Perhaps Anna's beauty was too eye-catching, and just then, a giant seagull in an army-green reporter's vest twisted its ass and walked towards them. Behind him, there were two Mr. Seagulls each holding a microphone and a camera.

This is an interesting and highly intelligent race in the world of great navigation - the "flat-haired tribe". They run newspaper groups large and small in the Endless Sea.

"Hello, sir."

Mr. Seagull, who was holding the microphone, didn't seem to recognize Raymond's identity.

They subjectively thought that the people who could sit here were naturally some high-ranking nobles who had been invited, and they didn't think about the pirates at all, so naturally they didn't think that this was the leader of the "Ghost Pirates" who had recently become famous for their lives.

Mr. Seagull handed the microphone to Raymond's mouth and said politely: "I am a reporter from Le Monde, what do you call me, sir?" ”

"Me?"

Raymond pointed to his nose, a little stunned.

After he looked at Mr. Seagull to confirm himself, his eyes rolled, and he didn't avoid the camera lens, but brushed his hairstyle coquettishly.

He learned the tone of the aristocratic lords and said, "Well... Just call me Count Nicholas. ”

"Hello, Count Nicholas, it's an honor to interview you."

Mr. Seagull nodded, and said, "That... Mr. Count Nicholas, how do you feel about the election of the new Giant King today? Or do you have any words of blessing for Mr. Cron? ”

On the occasion of the "new king's accession to the throne", the invited nobles should naturally bless the new king, which is the experience of mainstream media reporters and a routine question.

But Ray is a normal person?

He didn't answer and asked, "Is this a live broadcast?" ”

“...”

Mr. Seagull was stunned for a moment, shook his head and explained, "This is a random interview, and we will send the content of the manuscript back to headquarters." If the head office editor finds it valuable, an hour later, it will appear on the plate of the front page of Le Monde... Tomorrow, you may see this interview in the newspapers. ”

"Oh... It's going to be in the newspaper tomorrow, huh? ”

Raymond blinked when he heard this.

I don't know why, when he heard this, he couldn't bear some thoughts in his heart that he wanted to do some trouble.

He asked again: "Can you swear in your interview?" ”

Seagull reporter: "..."

Seeing that he didn't speak, Raymond thought he was acquiescing, so he cleared his throat and said to the camera: "A certain fool, Lao Tzu has long seen him unpleasantly, doglegs, traitors seek glory, sooner or later burp..."

Seagull reporter: "Sir, we at Le Monde are regular official media, and we can't swear. ”

Ray someone: "Oh, then we re-recorded..."

Seagull reporter: "..."

Raymond changed the sentence just now to an elegant way, and said it again: "There is a proverb in my hometown: I watch him raise a tall building, I watch him feast guests, I see him collapse the building..."

The Seagull reporter felt like he was going crazy, "Sir, is this your greeting to the newcomer 'Giant King'?" Can you explain it in the lingua franca of great navigation? ”

"I just said the lingua franca, aren't you not allowed to swear?"

“...”

"Forget it, let's talk about something else..."

was interviewed by a reporter for the first time in his life, and Raymond was also interested, like a chatterbox, and said: "I think so... Do not succumb to the suppression of the power and force of the world government, do not succumb to the coercion of conspirators, and are not enveloped by the sugar-coated shells of capital... This is the precious quality that the Giant Clan has passed down from generation to generation! ”

"Uh... Mr. Earl, can you be more laymanlike? ”

"After today, the majesty of the Giants will surely once again shake the endless sea. The giants will never be slaves, they will fight for freedom! ”

“...”

Anyway, it's okay to be idle, so Raymond was talking to Mr. Seagull for a while, and listened to the few Seagull reporters in front of him who were stunned.

He would never have imagined that his nonsense words and his pointing expression would be printed on the front page of Le Monde tomorrow, and then become known to the world and become the slogan of the giant clan's rebellion against the world government.

Later, a certain sentence also became the slogan of various reactionary government organizations in the Endless Sea.

As soon as there is a war, there will be a sentence,

XX, never be a slave!

......

Kron Gulabash will be elected the "King of Giants" today.

After the merger of the five clans, he will be awarded the false position of "honorary commander" by the navy of the world government as a king.

Then the entire Giant Kingdom will become a high-quality recruiting ground for the world government in the future. After joining the Navy, this country that had been free for countless years and was rich in powerful warriors could no longer want to break away from the "control" of the world's top government.

After a short time, the enthronement ceremony went smoothly, and after a lot of complicated ceremonies, Kron took the crown that symbolized the "King of Giants" and picked up the inherited giant relic, the [Barbarian Emperor's Hammer]. In the overwhelming cheers of the giants, the selection of the new giant king has finally settled.

Then began the expected "five-clan voting" session.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the inheritance of my giant clan is in the period of ancient mythology, and so far... My giant race was one, but now that we have been separated for a long time, I hope that we can embrace the 'new era'..."

Then the new giant king began a crackling speech.

Then this "new giant king" avoided the important and deliberately did not talk about the ancestral teachings of the giant clan, and did not talk about submitting to the world government. Instead, from the perspective of development, economy, and the future, he analyzed the various advantages of the "new era" that he described...

Where do those giants who are five big and three coarse understand such esoteric economic theories?

The left and right only understood one concept, follow the "new king", there is meat to eat!

Raymond in the VIP seat listened to the speech and tasted it, and sighed secretly in his heart from time to time: "I have to say, Crone's copywriting is still doing a good job." ”

Cron's speech was obviously carefully polished, and even he, an outsider, listened to it, and couldn't wait to immediately twist the entire giant clan into a rope and unite and take off on the spot.

Half an hour later,

After Cron's speech on the stage, he began to make his own statement, saying: "Even if I am elected as the 'Giant King', I promise that the tradition of our Giant Clan will not change!" All major decisions are made by the votes of our elders of the five clans... If you don't agree to the 'merger of the five clans', that's the end of the matter..."

The new king is elected, first draw a big pie for the future, and then stabilize people's hearts... Everything is impeccable.

"Now, let's start voting!"

Next, there is the so-called "democratic voting" session.

Each of the five major tribes of the Giants has two votes, one for the chief and one for the elders.

A total of ten votes, theoretically more than six, and the resolution will pass.

......

As for this so-called "democracy", in fact, it has long been overtaken by the world government.

The "Mountain Tribes" are staunch supporters of the will of the former giant king Uli. They will never let the conspiracy of the World Government succeed, and this vote will definitely not be in favor.

So... Their chieftain was assassinated by the dispute over the mines, and most of the elite of the clan were lost. Now, even if they vote against it, the entire "Mountain Clan" has a very light voice among the Giant Clan.

This means that even if their family disagrees, they can't change the facts.

Things went as the conspirators of the World House had expected.

The "Burning Thorn Tribe" and the "Forest Tribe" were the first to vote four in favor, and the "Mountain Tribe" voted two against.

And the chieftain, who is the most special "voodoo tribe" with the most special status, has a clear attitude and supports the side with the most votes.

Therefore, the last two votes of the "Frost Tribe" are crucial.

If they vote for it, then voodoo will also support it, and the final vote is 8:2; If they oppose it, then there is a 4:4 stalemate, and the resolution is suspended.

According to Uli's previous arrangement, the "Frost Tribe" voted against it two more times, and the matter would be yellow.

But no one expected that an unexpected scene appeared.

The vote within the "Frost Tribe" actually had a disagreement!

......

Those elders of the "Frost Tribe" were naturally also supporters of Uli, and they were well aware of Uli's arrangement and agreed with it.

What they oppose is not the merger of the five clans, but they don't want Kron's success and submit the entire giant clan to the feet of some people in power at the top of the world government and become a tool of others.

Yesterday, they also discussed with Capone that they would vote against it today.

Although this move will lead to a split within the Giants, it will at least save the last hope of the Giants.

The original plan was that as soon as the voting was over, the big war began.

With the help of the Blood Emperor, they will break through the conspiracy encirclement of the World Governor's Circle, and eventually lead the clan to resist the split. It's likely to be a situation that lasts for years, like the split of the Five Clans before it...

But no one expected that just after the elders of the "Frost Tribe" voted against it.

Their chief, Colt, temporarily changed his mind and cast a crucial "yes vote"!

Now the situation is 5:3, plus voodoo's two votes, the final settlement is 7:3, and the merger resolution is passed. Because of this vote, all their previous plans and arrangements have been ruined!

"Chief, what's the matter with you, didn't you say yes to oppose it?!"

"Yes, Colt, why would you support them! Have you also been bribed and betrayed your people?! ”

"Didn't we discuss it before, Colt, what's going on with you..."

“...”

The high-ranking members of the "Frost Tribe" were all shocked when they saw Colt's abrupt move.

They never thought that the chaos would come from their own chief.

In the face of "what a thousand people are pointing to",

Colt's expression was complicated, he sighed and said, "I listened to Cron's speech just now, and I think he was right. We've been in the Giants for hundreds of years, and it's time to stop. The civil war has constrained the development of our race, and it is time to embrace a new era..."

"I'm sorry, everybody."

After a pause, he looked apologetic, and said, "You say that I betrayed me to Uli, or betrayed my clan, just let me bear the notoriety." But I'm sure my people will understand me later. ”

He sighed with a righteous expression and said, "From today onwards, I will step down as the chief of the tribe. Even, I am willing to risk my life to prove my loyalty to the tribe. I'm not being bought, I just don't want the people to fight any more..."

These words also said a bit of tragic meaning, properly a good image of a good chief who sacrifices himself for others and is high-spirited!

"You...!"

Hearing this, those high-level officials of the "Frost Tribe" who did not know the situation were stunned.

The chiefs have said that they are going to "die to make their wills", what more loyal or disloyal words will they have there?

Maybe...

Has times really changed?

There's no right or wrong, it's just a different idea?

When Colt said this, not only the people of the "Frost Tribe", but all the Giant Clans in the Council Leader were stunned!

Especially those giants who were still opposed to the "merger of the five clans" before, all began to reflect...

Could it be that my insistence was wrong?

Maybe the idea that a chieftain can stick to with his life is really good for them?

......

And on the other hand,

"Gao, this hand is really clever! It turns out that the World Mansion left Murphy to disguise Colt, and it was a ploy to come to the bottom of the kettle to draw salary?! ”

In the VIP seat, Raymond, an insider, listened to these sensational words, and his heart turned upside down.

Not to mention anything else, Murphy's acting skills are simply amazing!

This move, killing people and punishing hearts... Kill more than one stone.

Not only did it lead to a vote, but it also shook the resolve to support the giants of Uli!

After today's vote, Colt will definitely "disappear" from the world, and Murphy will be able to get out of it then. Now with that rhetoric, everything makes sense.

Even, the death of "Colt" can make those giants who have opposing opinions completely doubt themselves.

Yes... What a great chieftain! For the future of the giant country, how great and selfless it is to die to make your will clear!

Because of this "Colt" vote, now that the overall situation has been decided, there will be an anti-general.

If Capone didn't know the inside story, he wouldn't be miserable by this hand.

I have to say...

The hand of the world government, with a capital letter!

......

The voting was over, and the merger of the five clans was a foregone conclusion.

So... Next is for Cron to announce a "big cleanup" against the pirates in the city!

Since everyone agrees to join the jurisdiction of the World Government, it means that it is inseparable from the pirate camp, and this "vote for name" can be handed perfectly!

"It's time for Uli to come out and turn the tide..."

Raymond thought in his heart that things had come to this point, and it was time to do it.
