Chapter 50: The Arrival of Odin
In the waters off New World Cotter Island, a Navy warship is anchored here. This was originally an island occupied by a small pirate group, and there used to be gunshots on the island every day, but now the entire island is silent, and there is no sound at all.
In the town in the middle of the island, a large group of people were standing around the square in the center of the town, silently looking at the high platform in the center of the square. I saw that on this temporary high platform, a row of ragged people were standing on the high platform, each with a rope around their necks on their heads, and everyone stood there silently, no one spoke. High in the sky, a naval captain was reading orders.
"The Jamie Pirates, the leader of the group, Jamie, was sentenced to death by hanging for the massacre of the inhabitants of Kort Island! Jamie Pirates First Officer Akya is sentenced to death by hanging for slaughtering the inhabitants of Kot Island! Jamie Pirates Combat Captain 。。。。。。 "A large list of names were read out by the captain, everyone was hanged, the Jamie Pirates were a small group of 120 pirates, but except for more than 100 people who were killed in the battle, the rest of the people were all on this high platform, and everyone was sentenced to be hanged!
"The above charges are convicted, there is no right to appeal, and the hanging will be carried out immediately!" After the captain finished reading, he closed the list in his hand and stepped off the high platform. A naval soldier walked to the side of the high platform, pulled down the switch, and all the planks under the feet of the pirates fell, only to see that the pirates who were sentenced to be hanged on the high platform immediately turned red and began to kick unconsciously, wanting to step on something, but there was air below, and nothing could be stepped on, and gradually someone stopped moving, and Jamie was the last person to stop moving.
The surrounding residents looked at the immobile pirates, did not burst into any cheers, but watched in silence, and after seeing all the pirates dead, they silently walked away and returned to their homes.
"Alas, people's hearts are scattered!" In the building on the other side of the square, Odin stood at the window and looked at the silently scattered residents of the square, and whispered.
"General Bai Kui, is it really good for us to do this? If these pirates are executed without going through the trial of the judicial island, will they sue them? After all, we are harming the interests of those officials by doing so! A navy chief stood next to Odin, looked out the window at the pirates who were being carried down by the navy soldiers, and asked in a low voice.
"Then let them sue! Doesn't the navy have to escort these vicious pirates to them to have a good time? Besides, if it weren't for the fact that they had squeezed the ordinary people so badly, how could our navy not be able to recruit enough troops? You see, the navy here has only been retreating for less than a year, and the pirates have occupied this place for less than half a year, and there are less than 2,000 people left in the original town of nearly 50,000 people! How many were killed by these guys? If our Navy has enough strength, there is absolutely no need to give up here! Look at the bottom of the list, even if we execute those pirates, the inhabitants here still don't look happy at all, some are just hostile to the navy! We've lost the hearts and minds of the people here! Odin pointed out the window and said loudly.
Seeing Odin's anger, Da Zuo shrank his neck, he didn't dare to justify anything in Odin's anger, after all, Odin used to fight the New World with a lot of effort, but how long did Odin leave the New World and return to the Navy Headquarters? The new world was plagued like this by those pirates, how could Odin not be angry?
"Alas, forget it, it's useless to get angry with you! In the current situation, our navy really does not have the ability to protect them, since they are resentful, they are resentful! How's the investigation going? Odin lost his temper for a while, and looked at Dazuo standing there silently, in a posture of letting you beat and scold, and waved his hand helplessly, and asked about business.
"Oh, General, that Divine Beast Pirate that you asked me to track down, our previous reconnaissance ship saw it not far in front of this island! They're fleeing to Kaido's territory, but it's said that they seem to have a lot fewer people on board! Don't know why! When Da Zuo heard Odin ask, he also quickly answered.
Although the navy was evacuated from the second half of the New World, the navy could not completely ignore it, so the navy sent many small reconnaissance clippers that were fast and small in number to sail to various parts of the New World, and on many islands, the navy left many intelligence officers to continue to monitor. Now, except for the islands where Kaido and Whitebeard are stationed, there are no intelligence officers, and the other islands occupied by the pirates have naval intelligence officers, so the navy still knows the situation in the new world very well!
"Then keep pursuing! We must find the pirates and destroy them! For such a pirate group that dares to directly provoke the navy, we must not be polite! Be sure to eliminate it as soon as possible! We can't let them go on any longer! Odin said solemnly.
"Ho! General, I'll go down and arrange for departure right away! But are we going to keep troops on this island? Osa asked.
"No need! We have less than a thousand troops, and there is simply no way to divide our troops to stay here! Let's keep chasing that pirate group! Odin thought about it for a moment and said helplessly.
"Okay! General, then I'll go down first! After saying that, Dazuo walked out.
Odin continued to stand near the window and look out, now that all the people in the square were gone, but the navy's makeshift platform still remained there, and the pirates who were executed, Odin had ordered before, were all hung in the open space of the docks! Let those future pirates see what happens to casual slaughter!
One hour later, the Navy battleship left Cotter Island and continued to chase towards the second half of the New World. The inhabitants of the island are watching the warship go away from their own houses, although the navy eliminated the pirates who oppressed them before, but the residents are still not happy at all, the navy was protecting the island well, but a year ago suddenly and large-scale evacuation, and soon after this place was occupied by a pirate group, and later there were other pirate groups to occupy here, and the two sides fought a large-scale battle on this island! That's how you sang and I appeared, the inhabitants of Cotter Island have experienced a year of suffering, and the Jamie Pirates are just a new force that has just recently taken over here, but the navy has wiped them out! Then the residents here can live happily ever after! But how long can such days last?
The warship sailed on the sea, and Odin stood in the bow of the ship to blow the wind. Thinking of the numb expressions of the residents of Kot Island before, Odin felt that he had failed very much even as a traverser, and his strength was about to reach the level of the top group of people in this world, but he still couldn't eliminate those pirates, Odin felt that these pirates were like leeks, cutting stubble after stubble, and they could never be eliminated! Do you have to be like the teacher in the previous life? Wipe out all the people of the entire New World?
While Odin was pondering, a loud roar came from the watchtower at the top of the warship. "Sir, there's a huge unidentified object ahead! We're getting closer to that object! ”
Odin heard the shout of the lookout, and immediately used his sight and hearing to perceive it in front of him!" Hehe, interesting, let me come here! Looks like it's time to do something! Odin smiled and muttered as he understood what was ahead of him from his senses.
