"Ahead is the City of Water!"

After two days of sailing, Roy and the others finally arrived in the water capital from Corvia Island.

From the first time they felt the air of freedom to now, they have calmed down, and they have been staring at the sea for so long, although it has not been long, but it has long been boring.

Sea.

Not only for the immensity of the sea, but also for the uniqueness of each island.

The Water City is one such place with a lot of character.

In addition to the transportation of water on the flat ground, there are also waterways that extend down from the heights of the water capital, and it is one of the wonders that the sea has to offer.

At the same time, the Water City also has the famous sea train, which was run by One Piece Gor. D. Roger made the world's first boatsmith to make pirate ships, Tom. Unfortunately, Tom was later executed for the crime of building a ship for One Piece.

"It's such a beautiful city."

Roy sighed with emotion, and then said, "Let's go, the local navy has been notified and is waiting for us at the port." ”

As he spoke, the small warship slowly approached, and the ships in the harbor avoided it one after another.

Roy and the others are not surprising either.

The navy has a very high prestige in this world, except for those lawless pirates who don't take the navy seriously, the rest of the islanders of various islands or bounty hunters wandering the sea have a kind of heartfelt respect for the navy.

Generally speaking, this respect is expressed in the principle of "warships first". That is, when a warship docks, all ships traveling with it will voluntarily avoid it.

Prow.

Roy and the others, dressed in naval uniforms, nodded their thanks to the helmsman of the ship that was avoiding them, and then Kirby and Berumeber quickly anchored.

The group disembarked and met with the navy on the side of the Water Capital.

"Hello Lieutenant Colonel Roy, I'm Peters."

This person is a major.

"You're the Commander of the Navy in the City of Water?"

Roy raised an eyebrow and looked around, surprised not to find anyone with a higher rank than him.

A major, on an island as big as the Water Capital, the commander stationed in the navy is actually just a major?

This is very counterintuitive.

"Strictly speaking, although I am the garrison navy of the Water City, I am not the one in charge here. The City of Water has its own mayor, his name is Ace Bagu, you can also call him Iceberg. The iceberg is very popular among the islanders, so the navy does not need to send more people to manage it. ”

Knowing what he was wondering about, Peters explained: "At the same time, due to the close proximity between Justice Island and the Water Capital, the garrison navy in the Water City is not fixed, and it adopts a shift system, and every other month, Justice Island sends people to rotate for a fixed time. ”

"I see."

Roy nodded, and the group entered the city.

"Lieutenant Colonel Roy, you came to the Water Capital because of Lieutenant General Karp's orders?"

Peters asked.

"Yes, we're here for the Straw Hat Pirates."

Bartolomeo was the first to speak, and couldn't wait: "We received news before we set off that the Straw Hats are on their way to the Water City, and if there is no mistake, they should have arrived in the Water City by now. Major Peters, do you know where they are? ”

"The Straw Hats?"

Peters and his subordinates glanced at each other, a little embarrassed: "This ......"

"Looks like you have some information, please share it with us."

Roy raised an eyebrow, seeing the hesitation of Peters and the others.

Seeing that Peters and the others were still hesitating, he saluted first and then said, "Major Peters, we were ordered to arrest the Straw Hats, and this order came from Lieutenant General Karp!" You also know that Lieutenant General Karp is not a good talker. ”

Boom!

Peters swallowed, a little helpless.

He didn't know if Karp was good at talking, but he knew it...... Karp is not easy to mess with.

The name of a naval hero is not for nothing!

People have been crisscrossing the sea for decades, and I don't know how many years ago, they were named naval heroes. In Gore M. In D. Roger's time, when Karp battled wits and courage with those monster-level pirates and drove One Piece around, he was still a muddy little kid.

The group stopped, and Roy and the others looked at Peters.

"Okay."

Peters was helpless, and finally spoke, saying: "The day before yesterday, when the Straw Hats first arrived in the Water City, they committed a big crime in the Water City, and now they are wanted. ”

"Big case?"

Kirby was taken aback: "What did they do?" ”

Peters said: "Nicole Robin, a member of the Straw Hat Pirates, known as the 'Son of the Devil', was mad the day before yesterday and assassinated Ace Bagu, the mayor of the Water City, and Ace Bagu was injured as a result. Everyone in the Water City now hates the Straw Hats. As far as I know, all the islanders and all the shipwrights are chasing the Straw Hats. ”

"Assassinate the Mayor of the Water City?"

Bartolomeo looked stunned, although he hated the Straw Hats, he didn't expect this group of people to be so bold.

Isn't the assassination of the mayor a provocation to all the islanders of the Water Capital, and at the same time a provocation to the Navy?

"And then?"

Roy's face was calm, as if he had expected it, and he continued to ask.

"On the night after the assassination, they infiltrated Ace Bagu's mansion again, and seemed to have a conflict with someone, where a fierce battle took place."

Peters muttered for a moment and said, "According to the information I received, they were ready to sail last night and don't know where to go. ”

"Really?"

Roy replied undeniably and said to Peters, "We won't go back to the naval garrison with you, and if necessary, we will look for you again." ”

"Yes."

Peters knew that Roy was dissatisfied with his performance, but he could only reluctantly nod.

Not to mention that Roy's rank is higher than him, he can't order Roy.

To be honest, even if his rank was higher than Roy's, he didn't dare to give Roy any orders.

After all, Roy and the others are from Marin Vando, are Vice Admiral Karp's henchmen, and are under the command of naval heroes.

And what effect will he, a mere major, have on Karp's love?

With that, Peters took his men and left.

Roy and the others watched them go.

Kirby and Berumeber looked at each other and at Roy.

Kirby said: "I think Major Peters is hiding a lot of things. ”

"There must be some special circumstances." Roy nodded, "In that case, we will disperse for the time being, collect intelligence separately, and assemble at the warship in the harbor in two hours." ”

"Okay."

The remaining three followed Roy's arrangement and dispersed.

Roy thought about it for a moment and asked a passerby for a place.

When passers-by heard the question, they didn't want to answer Roy, but when they saw Roy's naval uniform, they changed their attention.

"Lord Navy, you must help Mayor Iceberg catch the murderer!"

"I will."

Roy's body flashed, and he hurried in the direction pointed by the passerby.

The place he was going to was the mayor of the Water City, Iceberg, the hospital where Ace Bagu was injured.
