Chapter 451: Bricklayers and Wanted
Donghai, a construction site.
Responsible for the construction is the ace construction team and business king of the year under Debang Yijian, and the construction team from the Kingdom of Goa.
As they worked, they talked loudly and with great interest:
"Have you watched the news?"
"I heard that the 'historical truth' that the world government has covered up for 800 years has been studied by that archaeologist Nicole Robin!"
"It turns out that nine hundred years ago, there was already a country of Debang on the sea."
"What kind of bullshit world government is just a bunch of rats stealing things and moths gnawing houses!"
"yes..."
The workers discussed this historical truth that had spread widely on the sea, and soon led the conversation to what they were more interested in:
"Not only is it the historical truth, but our Lord Galen also found the legendary Ralph Drew and obtained the great secret treasure 'One Piece'!"
"Look at the picture in the newspaper... Gee... It's incredible. ”
"There are several mountains of gold!"
"The gold is piled up taller than the garbage mountain we used to live in the kingdom of Goya."
"One Piece is One Piece, it's really rich enough!"
Not many people knew about the historical text in the past, but the great secret treasure of One Piece was well known.
The workers discussed the big news in the newspaper that Galen had found Ralph Drew, and their faces glowed red with excitement.
However, one of their co-workers was not only not excited and curious, but seemed to have heard some heart-wrenching bad news.
He didn't even want to work, he just muttered to himself in a daze:
"The Great Secret Treasure..."
"The Great Treasure has been found..."
At this moment, Luffy experienced a similar despair as the Titch brothers.
Luffy, who was originally full of energy and optimism, is now slumped on the ground softly, like a lump of rubber that has been sunburned:
"I... I can't be the sea anymore..."
"One Piece."
Luffy's eyes were a little hollow.
He was desperate to find that his dreams had been shattered to this point, and he still hadn't won the right to open his mouth to shout his dreams from the man.
"This guy..."
Sanji looked at Luffy's declining state and said to Zoro with some concern:
"This guy won't be like this forever, will he..."
"Leave him alone."
Sauron ignored it.
He stood in front of a rough-looking brick wall, and danced the sharp blade in his hand with concentration, each movement setting off bursts of cold light.
"Green algae head, why are you so indifferent to your companions!"
Sanji said dissatisfied.
Zoro stopped his movements and said coldly:
"Such a little thing, he can get through it himself."
"Besides, if he can't even survive this setback, then he doesn't qualify to be our captain."
With that, Sauron turned his head and continued to wield his blade at the brick wall with all his attention.
"What are you talking about?"
Before Sanji lit a cigarette, he directly pinched it between his two fingers:
"Luffy lost a dream!"
"Lost your dreams?"
Zoro stopped the knife again, glanced at Sanji with disdain, and asked directly:
"How?"
"If All Blue is found by Galen, can't you be a chef and go to sea?"
“.....”
Sanji was silent for a while, and after thinking carefully, he sighed softly:
"Green algae, you're right..."
"Even if Galen had found All Blue before me, I would still continue to be a chef and continue to explore unknown ingredients."
"It's not all..."
A flash of pain flashed in his eyes, and the image that came to his mind gradually shifted from All Blue to something strange:
"I'm sure I'll take that one more from my sister..."
"The soul that stole my dreams and kicked away!"
Lei Jiu has been with Galen for a while, and she has already contacted her younger brother Sanji, who works at the Tokai construction site, through the image bug.
And after Sanji recognized his long-lost sister Lei Jiu, he also learned a bad news.
Because of this bad news, Sanji quietly added a dream to kick Galen into the air in addition to All Blue's dream.
"Circle your eyebrows, don't rob my target!"
Zoro snorted lightly and said confidently:
"Galen is the world's number one swordsman, and I will only be able to defeat him!"
As he spoke, Sauron turned his head to face the brick wall and swung the heavy blade in his hand again.
Each sword embodies his unshakable will as a swordsman.
I saw the blade in Sauron's hand flutter and flash with silver light, and the surface of the rough brick wall underwent incredible changes:
Wherever the blade passed, the walls became as smooth as a mirror.
This kind of knife technique can be called a magic workmanship.
"Sanji, don't be stunned."
While Zoro was busy plastering the wall, he said to Sanji, who was standing idly next to him:
"Come to the ashes."
....................................................
East Sea, West Lob Village.
Like most of the islands in the East China Sea that are under the rule of Debang, the island on which the village of Sirob is located is no longer as quiet as it once was, and has become a noisy and lively construction site.
Luckily for the other islands, Sirob Village has become a stop on the sea train line due to its geographical location, and has been upgraded from an ordinary small village to a bustling future train town.
In the busy work of the construction workers, the stations, towns, and streets have all taken shape.
As a local landowner, Miss Keya not only earned a lot of demolition money, but also became a small rich woman in the East China Sea because of the sharp appreciation of the land in her hands.
However, unlike Keya, who became rich overnight while sitting at home, Keya's housekeeper, Mr. Chloe, has been having a very bad time recently.
Because, Chloe has recently had an uninvited guest by his side.
This uninvited guest was none other than the former colonel of the Navy Branch, the wanted criminal of the Debang Company, and the bandit who had been wandering around the East China Sea for more than a year and had not been arrested, the "axeman" Monka.
Chloe is cautious by nature and clever in disguise, and after faking his death, he hid by Keya's side as a butler for three whole years, and never revealed his previous identity as a pirate.
Pity...
By chance, Monka, who had escaped to the village of Sirob, recognized him, and at a glance recognized the Black Cat Pirates Captain Chloe, who had been dead for three years.
The reason is very simple, because Chloe had his subordinates hypnotize Monka and designed his own fake death.
And Monka was also promoted from an ordinary non-commissioned officer to the position of branch colonel because of the credit of "killing" Chloe, and started a corrupt and degenerate career in the future.
For Chloe, the man who changed his life, Monka is too familiar.
Therefore, he saw through the true identity of this butler at a glance.
Immediately afterward, the exhausted Monka immediately took advantage of the situation to use this secret to force Chloe to take him in, and then forced Chloe to use the power of the Keya family to help him evade the pursuit of the Debang Company.
And Chloe was worried that his identity would be revealed, and he couldn't kill the powerful Monka, so he could only cover up Monka's traces head-on, and mixed from a decent butler to a trembling accomplice.
Finally, on this day, Chloe is ready to put an end to this restless life.
He didn't make up his mind to do something to Monka, but he had a plan to use Monka's power in turn:
"Monka."
"I need you to do me a favor."
In the mountain hut where Monka was hiding, Chloe told him straight to the point.
"How?"
Monka sneered and played the scoundrel:
"Captain Chloe."
"You won't let me pick up here for free, you want me to pay rent, do you?"
"I'm a fugitive now, where can I help you, a decent man?"
"You have to help with this."
Chloe lowered his face and said in a deep voice:
"Go and read this issue of the "Tokai Daily" yourself!"
"The remnants of the Black Cat Pirates I left outside have been captured by Debang in one fell swoop, and those guys know the secret that I didn't die at all."
"If they can't keep their mouths shut and confess to me in Debang, then we'll both be doomed!"
"Do you understand?"
Hearing this, Monka's expression immediately became solemn:
"I see."
He no longer played a scoundrel, but asked with a serious expression:
"What do you want me to help you with?"
Seeing that Monka finally cooperated, Chloe's face was slightly better.
Crowe paused and explained in detail:
"At this point, the two of us won't be able to hide on this island for long."
"But if we leave empty-handed, we can only become the kind of wanted criminals who are poor and white, and the best result is to live a life of poverty."
"So..."
A hint of fierceness flashed in his eyes, and he said to Monka:
"I want to ask you to come forward and attack the manor as a fugitive and kill Miss Koya!"
"Keya doesn't have any relatives around her, and the second generation of the thief who can't be messed with hasn't married Keya yet, I can forge a will to inherit Keya's family's property."
This was originally Chloe's plan, but there were many changes due to various factors.
Chloe's original ultimate goal of staying in Xirob Village and becoming a rich man had to become like this:
"When the time comes, I will hurry up and sell Keya's family property at a low price, and then count the treasures in the warehouse and the cash on the books, and the two of us will get a lot of money in equal shares."
"Not to mention anything else, just the demolition money issued by Debang is enough for us to eat fat!"
"With this money, we can escape to the North Sea, the South China Sea, or the Great Passage."
"No one knows us there, and we can live the rest of our lives as rich people!"
Chloe's plan is tempting, especially for Monka, who hasn't had much of a birthday in more than a year.
He thought for a moment, and immediately agreed to Chloe's request:
"Good!"
"I agree with this plan!"
Monka was excited, but quickly calmed down.
Although he is rough and reckless in appearance, he is actually a bold and careful guy, otherwise he would not have been able to escape and has not been caught by Debang until now.
As soon as Monka calmed down, he said to Chloe:
"Before you do it, you have to tell the island what defenses there are."
"What's the defense?"
Chloe shook his head decisively:
"The nearest Debang base is also a hundred miles away, and there is not even a shadow of a Debang warrior on the island, only a few unsuccessful family guards."
"Really?"
Meng Ka was a little suspicious, and couldn't help but question:
"Then when I climbed the mountain and watched in the past two days, how did I see that many places on the island were hanging the flag of Debang?"
"Not only the flags, but even the camp of the German army was built on the other side of the coast."
"Hahaha..."
"Monka, you're really scared by Debang!"
Chloe was amused by Monka's laughter, and the tension was almost nonexistent:
"It's not the German army, it's the construction workers who came to the island to build the station."
"It's all mud legs moving bricks on the construction site, what's there to worry about?"
