Chapter 701: Sweet Bait, Bloody Order! (3/3)
At the same time, the capital of the seven waters.
As the closest island to Chambord just across the Devil's Triangle from the Seven Great Routes, the City of the Seven Waters is also home to a large number of pirates.
Carrera lost its leadership due to an accident that year, and then re-split into several large shipyards, as a result, each of them competed for the title of the best shipyard in the capital of seven waters, and compared with each other, the shipbuilding technology improved a lot.
It turns out that no one in this world is indispensable.
Without the iceberg, life still has to go on.
The influx of pirates has breathed new life into the island that has undergone a sea change, and the streets are bustling with people.
"Huh? This road...... Have we been here before? Robin-chan. ”
Sanji, who was holding a bunch of ingredients, stood at the intersection and suddenly said with a frightened expression.
"Is it contagious?!"
"No, we're coming down from the third floor, and this is the second floor."
Hearing this, Robin, who was walking behind him, chuckled and shook his head.
"Although the buildings all look the same, you see, the shops are different."
"I see, I'll just say!"
Sanji breathed a sigh of relief and turned around: "Then it's okay to keep going down, right?" Gotta hurry back, this time miss the ghost knows where that idiot will go! ”
Although Robin accompanied them along the way, conducting archaeological excavations based on materials found from within the Revolutionary Army, the most important purpose of the two of them working together was to find the vanished Sauron.
The Great Voyage message transmission was so closed that they ran all the way from the first half of the first half to the second half of the Seven Waters Capital, but they couldn't find that guy.
Every time I rush over according to the news, either the news is wrong, or the person has left.
This time it was not easy to know his exact location, and Sanji just wanted to catch him and beat him up hard, and then go back to sleep well.
Because of Zoro's criminal record, the Straw Hats took a piece of Luffy's life paper when they separated, and now it's Zoro.
As they were walking down the street, they suddenly caught the attention of a group of pirates running around the corner.
"Hurry up, there's a message from the boss, let's go immediately!"
"Whew...... Whew...... what's going on, Captain? In such a hurry, our supplies are not yet full! ”
"It's enough to starve people to death! The Navy is starting to shrink its line of defense today, do you know what that means?! ”
"What does that mean?!"
The group drifted away, so that Sanji, who was hiding behind the wall, did not hear what was next.
However, Robin, who has been wandering for many years, has been exposed to it since he was a child, and said with a heavy face when he heard this: "It means that there will be a large unguarded sea area in the middle, and there will be ...... There are a large number of innocent people living in it, and they can loot at will. ”
"This group of navies, don't they take human life seriously?!"
Sanji gritted his teeth and kicked the root of the wall.
"There's no way around it, after all, I heard that the monster was defeated by Shanks and took away the pure gold...... In order to ensure the safety of the Holy Land, shrinking the defense line is the only option in the event that your own combat power is damaged. ”
Robin lifted his chin and elaborated calmly.
Suddenly, the corners of his mouth were slightly curled and he smiled faintly.
"But ......"
"Is it really a wonderful world waiting for them?"
"Huh? Say?! ”
Sanji was stunned when he heard this, and the cigarette fell to the ground.
"Eh, I guess that's what I said."
Robin nodded with a smile, took out his sunglasses and put them on his face: "As long as people have desires, they can be dominated, and the monster called 'Thor' by the pirates knows this best." ”
"So ......"
"We're going to do it, Sanji-kun."
"Ah, I know."
Hearing this, Sanji nodded solemnly and re-lit the cigarette for himself.
"I won't allow that to happen a second time!"
Syllable!
Suddenly, Sanji felt his foot and neck being grabbed by a hand.
He looked down the alley, and a large man in a cloak was lying on the ground, his mouth open weakly, his face wrinkled and black, his lips dry, and his eyes red and swollen, like a shipwrecked refugee.
"Bye...... Please, I haven't eaten in ten days. ”
"Please...... To give...... Give me a little ......."
“…… Coke! ”
Sanji, who was taking out a piece of bread: "......"
Why Coke, bastard!!

……
Chambord Islands, Naval Command Center.
"Report, Spencer Island has been attacked by pirates!"
"Report, Dunbar Town has been attacked by pirates!"
"Report, Maurice Mori Island has been attacked by pirates!"
Report ......
Messages are constantly collected in the command center, and every time a message is imported, someone will take out a red nail and mark the location of the incident in the huge map hanging on the wall.
Soon, all the signs where the eight poles couldn't be hit together appeared, and Ron took out a red pen to hook them together, and said after a moment of silence.
"It's not enough!"
"They're testing to see if we're really giving up on this area! Keep the communication going, and I'll find out how many pirates have entered the encirclement! ”
"Yes!"
The herald's heart tightened, and Ron opened his mouth to say that tens of thousands of lives would fall under the butcher's knife of the pirates.
But for the sake of greater goals, for the sake of greater tranquility, the necessary sacrifices are worth it.
At this time, Akainu walked into the command center after his busy inspection and asked, "How's the situation, Ron?" ”
"It's going well, but it's going to take time."
Ron, who was the commander-in-chief of the battle, quickly reported: "It has been proved that more than thirty percent or two percent of the pirates who scattered and gave up the attack were surrounded by our army, and if the remaining fifty percent still followed this ratio, it would take at least three days!" ”
"Three days, then!"
Hearing this, Akainu clapped his hands and said, "Is there a problem with launching a general attack in three days?!" ”
"Nope!"
"That's good...... You come with me, Crane Staff, and you'll be in command next, understand? ”
"Yes!"
Watching Akainu and Ron look at each other and leave, a gleam flashed in Tsuru's cloudy eyes.
"These two guys, what's hiding from me?"
Leaving the camp, the two of them moved around several times and came to the 13th area of Chambord, a section of the purged pirates.
After landing on the ground, Akainu crossed his hands in front of his chest and asked solemnly, "The situation is very wrong, Ron, have you found out anything?" ”
"Even if they are surrounded by pirates, there is not the slightest trace of the Celestial Dragons in the Holy Land, where did they go?"
Ron calmly lit his cigar and took a deep breath.
Actually, you already have the answer in mind, don't you? Marshal. ”
Looking at the dark face of the red dog, Ron said lightly: "The position of the five old stars, since ancient times, has not been held by non-Tianlong people, and will only be selected from within the Tianlong people, no matter how good the rest are!" ”
"Now that the lord has acquiesced to me telling you this, I guess I am getting vaccinated in advance......"
Hiss......!!
Akainu gasped and looked heavy: "How much do you know?!" ”
"I know all of them, not so long ago, but I can't say."
Ron shook his head, "The only thing I can tell you, Marshal...... It's just that the situation is very bad! If you have anything to do with the worst, you can put it on the agenda. ”
Click!
A crunch sound came from under Akainu's feet, and the hard floor was shattered by his hard stepping, revealing cobweb-like pits.
"I see."
"Don't let a third party know about this, understand?!"
"Understood!"
Ron nodded solemnly, suddenly remembered something, turned around and asked as if he didn't care.
"What if...... I mean if. ”
"When we no longer have restraints on our heads, will you still not forget your original intention and stick to your current justice, Marshal?"
Hearing this, Akainu's pupils shrank, and a fierce force erupted.
But instead of scolding him angrily, he fell silent and pulled down his baseball cap.
"I will!"
"Because no matter what era it is, someone must stand up for justice!"
"Original...... So ......"
Ron chuckled, nodded slightly, and dodged away.
Leaving Akainu standing in a roar, engulfed in magma in Area 13.
